"Al Qaeda" (Wink Wink) Busy Again

Suicide bomber kills 55 in packed Iraq restaurant

"A suicide bomber killed at least 55 people Thursday in a packed restaurant near the northern city of Kirkuk where Kurdish officials and Arab tribal leaders were trying to reconcile their differences over control of the oil-rich region. The brazen attack — the deadliest in Iraq in six months — occurred at a time of rising tension between Kurds and Arabs over oil, political power and Kirkuk.
No group claimed responsibility for the attack at the upscale Abdullah restaurant, which was crowded with families celebrating the end of the four-day Islamic holiday of Eid al-Adha. The U.S. blamed the blast on al-Qaida, which uses suicide bombings as its signature attack."


You mean like this Al Queda? Or this Al Queda? This Al Qaeda? This bunch? Remember these guys?
The whole concept has always been a crock of shit and still is. AQ is now a term used to describe anyone who objects to fascist manipulation for war abroad and police state tyranny at home. And AQ is the convenient excuse for state terror activities conducted by the REAL axis of weasels - the CIA/Mossad/Brit Intelligence - who slaughter with impunity for their agenda of total control.

I know, I know. How could that be when so much media coverage doesn't say this, or when the suits blithely mention the AQ menace or when stentorian voices solemnly tell us on the radio or TV about the latest AQ atrocities? Are they all lying?

No they're not. More than any other society on the face of the earth, we're being manipulated by fear and control. In our top down authoritarian police state it only has to be the top of the pyramid and their operatives who lie. Everybody else either follows orders unquestioningly, needs to believe in their leaders and can never conceive that they're not being told the truth or is deathly afraid of losing their paycheck. Most people just parrot what other people say or say what they're told to say. It's worse than even the darkest days of the Soviet era - at least the Russians knew they were being lied to. This country is truly brainwashed.

It all started with 9/11 when they rammed Osama and AQ down our throats non stop in our most vulnerable moment, and it hasn't let up. Toss in some racism and phony patriotism and the rubes will at some point get it. They knew that endless, blatant lies from officialdom along with a complicit media would wear us down. Fearmongering 24/7 will work wonders on a society that doesn't pay attention and is as sick and distracted as mouthbreathing americans drooling slack jawed in front of their televisions. AQ is this omnipresent, shadowy, scary menace OUT THERE that we've been taught to fear. We LOVE to be told what to think because it's just too damn hard to do it for ourselves.

I'd like to ask just one simple question - Cui Bono.
Who really benefited from 9/11? Who benefited from Bali, all the car bombings in Iraq that were blamed on sectarian violence, blowing up mosques and on and on? It's certainly not the parties that are always blamed because it's not in their best interests to receive the fallout.

Does any sensible person think that Pakistan would send gunmen into Mumbai to randomly murder innocent people and not expect some truly ugly shit in return? And the choice of targets in Iraq usually gets rather curious with just a small amount of inspection. Would muslims really want to kill other muslims and blow up mosques? And why would they do that instead of trying to blow up foreign occupiers?

That terror nexus mentioned above comes out ahead every damn time. It's always in their interest to sow fear and division but dead-from-the-neck-up americans will fall for the AQ myth every time.
As for this event, the targets were Kurd and Sunni officials celebrating the end of a religious holiday with their families, getting together to reduce tension in northern Iraq. Now who might stand to gain from violence that would divide Iraqis and keep the occupation going ad infinitum, hmm?
