Former MI5 Agent Says 9/11 An Inside Job
Attack Was 'Coup de'tat,' Buildings Were Demolished By Controlled Demolitions
Former MI5 agent David Shayler, who previously blew
the whistle on the British government paying Al Qaeda $200,000 to carry
out political assassinations, has gone on the record with his conviction
that 9/11 was an inside job meant to bring about a permanent state of emergency
in America and pave the way for the invasions of Afghanistan, Iraq and ultimately
Iran and Syria.
David Shayler joined MI5 in October 1991 and worked
there for five years. He started at F Branch (counter-subversion) in January
1992, and worked in T Branch (Irish terrorism) from August 1992 until October
1994. He left the organization in 1996.
Shayler appeared on The Alex Jones Show to kick off
what will be a wider public campaign to educate the public on 9/11 issues
and government corruption.
Shayler again risked jail by speaking out. The British
government has a legal gag preventing him from speaking about his work during
his MI5 tenure. Since what Shayler discussed was already on the public record
(a consequence of which was his imprisonment on two separate occasions),
he now feels safer in stepping back out into the limelight.
Shayler delved into his past investigations and the
evidence that led some within MI5 to conclude that the Israelis bombed their
own London embassy in July 1994. Shayler said that the Israelis framed two
Palestinians who remain in jail to this day.
"The same thing has happened with two Palestinians
who were convicted of conspiracy to cause the attack on the Israeli Embassy
in Britain in 1994 but MI5 didn't disclose two documents which indicated
their innocence. One document indicated another group had carried out the
attack and the other document was the belief of an MI5 officer that the
Israelis had actually bombed their own embassy and allowed a controlled
explosion to try and get better security and these documents were never
shown to the trial judge let alone the defense."
Shayler said that his suspicions were first aroused
about 9/11 when the usual route of crime scene investigation was impeded
when the debris was immediately seized and shipped off to China.
"It is in fact a criminal offence to interfere
with a crime scene and yet in the case of 9/11 all the metal from the buildings
is shipped out to China, there are no forensications done on that metal.
Now that to me suggests they never wanted anybody to look at that metal
because it was not going to provide the evidence they wanted to show people
that it was Al-Qaeda."
Shayler then went on to dismiss the incompetence theory.
"The more I look at it, you realize that it's
not incompetence. There were FBI officers all over the country, Colleen
Rowley is obviously the one who managed to get a congressional hearing,
but there was plenty of evidence certainly."
"There are so many questions that need to be answered,
protocols being overridden within national defense, people actively being
stopped from carrying out investigations. This wasn't an accident, they
were aware there was intelligence indicating those kind of attacks, there
were FBI intercepts saying it in the days before the attacks. When you look
at it all, that is a big big intelligence picture and yet these people were
crucially stopped from doing their jobs, stopped from trying to protect
the American people."
Shayler elaborated by saying the evidence suggests
the attack was originally meant to be much wider in scope and was an attempt
at a violent coup intended to decapitate the entire government as a pretext
for martial law.
"So you're looking at a situation in which you
almost have a coup de'tat because you've got to bear in mind that there
were weapons discovered on planes that didn't take off on 9/11. Now people
have obviously postulated that they were going perhaps to attack the White
House, Capitol Hill. That looks to me like an attempt to destroy American
government and declare a state of emergency, in fact a coup de'tat, a violent
coup de'tat."
"There are so very many questions about this and
you realize again that none of the enquiries ever get to the bottom of any
of these things, they don't take all the evidence, they don't often take
any evidence under oath when they should be taking it under oath."
Shayler was forthright in his assertion that the attack
was planned and executed within the jurisdiction of the military-industrial
complex.
"They let it happen, they made it happen to create
a trigger to be able to allow the invasion of Afghanistan, the invasion
of Iraq and of course what they're trying to do now is the same thing with
the invasion of Iran and Syria."
Shayler ended by questioning the highly suspicious
nature of the collapse of the twin towers and Building 7, the first buildings
in history, all in the same day, to collapse from so-called fire damage
alone.
"I've seen the results of terroristic explosions
and so on and no terrorist explosion has ever brought down a building. When
the IRA put something like a thousands tonnes of home-made explosives in
front of the Baltic Exchange building in Bishopsgate and let off the bomb,
all the glass came out, the building shook a bit but there was no question
about the building falling down and it doesn't obey the laws of physics
for buildings to fall down in the way the World Trade Center came down.
So you have the comparison of the two, Building 7 compared with the north
and south towers coming down and those two things are exactly the same,
they were demolished."
David Shayler joins a spate of recent credible whistleblowers
who share the same sentiments about the real story behind 9/11. Former Chief
Economist for the Department of Labor during President George W. Bush's
first term Morgan Reynolds publicly
questioned the unexplained collapse of WTC Building 7 earlier
this month. In addition, a former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury under
President Reagan, Paul Craig Roberts, shared
his concerns last week when he said the Bush Administration
were making the same mistakes as the Nazis when they invaded Russia in the
dead of Winter. Roberts seriously doubts the official explanation behind
9/11.
