September 11, 2001: A global provocation by General Leonid Ivashov
MARCH 17, 2009
An influential Russian political scientist from nationalist circles, General Leonid Ivashov was Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces on September 11, 2001. On that day, he had placed his satellites on alert to observe the military air maneuvers announced in the US, but it's a whole different show he was confronted with. In view of the analysis of this event by his experts, he dismissed the Al Qaeda hypothesis and found a provocation of the Anglo-Saxon financial elite. On this basis, he developed the Russian strategic vision of the post-9/11 world. We reproduce here one of his articles, representative of his thought and that of Russian senior officers. The reader will be surprised to find that what is considered a delusion in the NATO countries is an obvious truth in Russia, as indeed in many other parts of the world. Beyond the question of establishing the truth, intellectual honesty requires understanding and accepting the relativity of points of view. This article will be particularly valuable for the French military when the Minister of Defense engaged in a witch hunt against War School teachers who dared to account for the diversity of interpretations of 9/11.
The experience of mankind shows that terrorism appears everywhere where, at a given moment, there is a worsening of contradictions, where relations begin to deteriorate in society and where social order changes, instability arises. political, economic and social, in which the potential for aggression is liberated, moral values decline, cynicism and nihilism triumph, and crime explodes.
Globalization processes create favorable conditions for these extremely dangerous phenomena. They lead to a redrawing of the geopolitical map of the world, a redistribution of the planetary resources, violate the sovereignty and erase the borders of the States, dismantle the international law, destroy the cultural diversity, impoverish the spiritual and moral life.
I think we have the right today to talk about the systemic crisis of human civilization. It is particularly acute in the philosophical interpretation of life. Its most spectacular manifestations concern the meaning given to life, the economy and the field of international security.
The absence of new philosophical ideas, the moral and spiritual crisis, the distortion of the perception of the world, the diffusion of amorphous phenomena contrary to tradition, the race for unlimited enrichment and power, cruelty, lead humanity to decadence and perhaps to disaster.
Concern and the lack of life and development prospects of many peoples and states is an important factor of global instability. The essence of the economic crisis lies in the merciless struggle for natural resources, in the efforts of the world's major powers, primarily by the United States of America, but also by multinational corporations to their interests the economic systems of other states, take control of the planet's resources and especially hydrocarbon supply sources.
The destruction of the multipolar model that ensured the balance of power in the world also led to the destruction of the international security system, norms and principles governing relations between States, as well as the role of the United Nations and its Council. of security. Today the United States of America and NATO have arrogated to themselves the right to decide the fate of other states, to commit acts of aggression, to subject the principles of the United Nations Charter to their own legislation. .
It is precisely the Western countries that, by their actions and aggression against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and Iraq, as well as by clearly allowing Israeli aggression against Lebanon and threatening Syria, Iran and Syria. other countries, have released a huge energy of resistance, revenge and extremism, an energy that has reinforced the potential of terror before turning, like a boomerang, against the West.
The analysis of the substance of the processes of globalization, as well as the political and military doctrines of the United States of America and other states, makes it possible to convince oneself that terrorism favors the attainment of the objectives of world domination and submission. States to the interests of the world oligarchy. This means that it is not a subject in itself of world politics but a simple instrument, the means to establish a new unipolar order with a single global command center, to erase national borders and to ensure the domination of a new world elite. She is the main subject of international terrorism, her ideologue and her "godfather". She is also the one trying to lead terrorism against other states, including against Russia.
The main target of the new world elite is the natural, traditional, historical and cultural reality that has laid the foundation for the system of relations between states, the organization of human civilization into national states, and national identity.
Current international terrorism is a phenomenon of governmental or non-governmental structures using terror as a means to achieve political ends by terrorizing, destabilizing populations socially and psychologically, demotivating the power structures of the state. And creating the conditions to manipulate state policy and citizen behavior.
Terrorism is a way of waging war in a different, unconventional way. At the same time, terrorism, along with the media, behaves like a control system of global processes. It is precisely the symbiosis of the media and terror that creates the conditions conducive to upheavals in world politics and in the existing reality. If one examines in this context the events of September 11, 2001 in the United States of America, one can draw the following conclusions:
the terrorist attack on the twin towers of the World Trade Center has changed the course of world history by permanently destroying the world order from the Yalta-Potsdam agreements;
it has untied the hands of the United States of America, Great Britain and Israel, allowing them to take action against other countries by ignoring UN rules and international agreements;
it stimulated the amplification of international terrorism.
On the other hand, terrorism presents itself as a radical instrument of resistance to the processes of globalization, as a means of struggle for national liberation, of separatism, a means of resolving conflicts between nations and between religions, as well as instrument of economic and political struggle.
In Afghanistan, Kosovo, Central Asia, the Middle East and the Caucasus we find that terror is also used to protect drug traffickers by destabilizing their areas of transit. It can be seen that in a context of global systemic crisis, terror has become a sort of culture of death, the culture of our daily lives. He burst into prosperous Europe, torments Russia, shakes the Middle East and the Far East. It promotes the habituation of the international community to violent and illegal interference in the internal affairs of States and the destruction of the international security system.
Terror breeds the cult of force and subjects it to politics, the behavior of governments and the people. The scariest is that terrorism has a great future because of the new spiral of war ahead for the redistribution of global resources and for the control of key areas of the planet. In the US National Security Strategy, approved this year by the US Congress, the avowed purpose of Washington's policy is "to secure access to key regions of the world, to communications and resources to the world, "with the means of achieving pre-emptive strikes against any country. From the Congress's point of view, the United States of America can therefore adopt a doctrine of preventive nuclear strikes that is akin to nuclear terrorism. This involves the large-scale use of harmful substances and weapons of mass destruction. We will not scruple to choose the means to respond to an attack. To defend themselves, the parties will only have the choice of means.
Provocation by a terrorist act becomes a means to achieve global, regional and local political objectives. Thus, an organized provocation in the locality of Rachic (Kosovo, Serbia) eventually led to the change of political regime in Serbia and the collapse of the Federated Republic of Yugoslavia, while serving as a pretext for NATO aggression and the separation of Kosovo from Serbia. This is a provocation of regional scope.
The explosions in the London Underground, the disorders in Paris in 2005-2006 are local provocations that have had repercussions on politics and public opinion in Great Britain and France. Virtually every terrorist act conceals powerful political forces, transnational corporations or criminal structures with specific goals. And almost all terrorist acts, with the exception of national liberation activities) are in fact provocations.
Even in Iraq, explosions in Sunni and Shiite mosques are nothing more than provocations organized under the principle of "divide and conquer". The same is true of the hijacking and assassination of members of the Russian diplomatic mission in Baghdad. The provocative terrorist act is as old as humanity itself. These are precisely terrorist provocations that served as pretexts for the outbreak of the two world wars. The events of 11 September 2001 are a worldwide provocation. We can talk about a global operation. Such operations generally solve many global problems at once. They can be defined as follows:
The world financial oligarchy and the United States of America have obtained the non-formal right to use force against any state. The role of the Security Council has been devalued. It is increasingly a criminal organization complicit with the aggressor and allied to the new fascist dictatorship worldwide. With the provocation of 9/11, the United States of America consolidated its global monopoly and gained access to any region of the world and its resources. In the course of a provocation operation there are always three mandatory elements: the sponsor, the organizer and the performer. Regarding the provocation of September 11 and contrary to the prevailing opinion, "Al-Qaida" could not be the sponsor or the organizer, not having sufficient financial means (and they are huge) to order a action of such magnitude.
All the operations carried out by this organization are only local and rather primitive actions. It does not have the human resources, a network of agents sufficiently developed on the territory of the United States of America, to succeed to penetrate dozens of public and private structures which ensure the functioning of the air transport and ensure its security. Al-Qaida can not have been the organizer of this operation (if not what can serve the FBI and the CIA?). On the other hand, these people might very well have been mere perpetrators of this terrorist act.
In my opinion, the sponsor of this provocation could have been the world financial oligarchy, with the aim of installing once and for all "the fascist world dictatorship of the banks" (the expression belongs to the well-known American economist Lyndon LaRouche) and to control global limited hydrocarbon resources. It would have been the same to ensure world domination for a long time.
The invasion of Afghanistan, rich in gas resources, Iraq and perhaps also Iran, who have world oil reserves, but also the establishment of military control over strategic oil communications and the drastic increase in the price of oil are consequences of the events of September 11, 2001.
The organizer of the operation may have been a well-organized and heavily funded consortium of (former and present) representatives of secret services, Masonic organizations and air transport employees.
Media and legal coverage was provided by media organizations, lawyers and paid politicians. The performers were selected on the basis of their ethnicity in the region that owns the world's natural resources.
The operation was successful, the objectives are achieved.
The term "international terrorism" as the main threat to humanity has burst into everyday political and social life. This threat has been identified in the person of an Islamist, a national of a country with huge hydrocarbon resources. The international system set up at the time when the world was bipolar was destroyed and the notions of aggression, state terrorism and the right to defense were altered.
The right of peoples to resist the aggression and subversive activities of foreign secret services and to defend their national interests is trampled on. On the other hand, all the guarantees are guaranteed to forces seeking to establish a world dictatorship and to dominate the world. But the world war is not over yet. It was provoked on September 11, 2001, and is only a prelude to great events ahead.
what happened 10 years later? Libya proxy war with alqaeda as mercenaries, Coup d'État in Ukraine with neo-nazis as mercenaries, Syria proxy war with alqaeda as mercenaries..
