From Saddam Hussein’s mythical Weapons of Mass Destruction to 9/11 and the 7/7 attacks, Western intelligence has conducted its operations behind a tapestry of lies and deceit.
The following is a little old but it may serve to illustrate how Western intelligence uses lies, compliant journalists and murder to cover its crimes.
Gareth Williams, a mathematician who worked for Britain’s Secret Intelligence Service, was found dead at a Security Services safe house in London in highly unusual circumstances in 2010. Police visited the flat after being alerted by colleagues concerned by his absence from work. The flat was locked but upon entering police found William’s decomposing body in a sports bag, that had been locked from the outside.
An inquest concluded that Williams death was “unnatural and likely to have been criminally mediated.”
The question as to who was responsible remains a mystery to this day. Nonetheless it’s not beyond the bounds of possibility that Williams had concluded that the “War on Terror” was a fraud and that the real terrorists were the security services he worked for.
In the words of the correspondent who sent this in:
Perhaps this “mathematical genius” was also an innocent who discovered that Islamic terror was organised by elements within his own side and he didn’t like it.
Quite feasible, I think.
There was a very clever boy I taught in the 1970’s who was recruited into Military Intelligence while still a sixth former (this was going to be his career, he openly said). About three years later I heard that he had left the army. He “couldn’t believe the kind of things he was asked to get involved in” apparently.
Some people just won’t do it. Once they realise that they themselves are the baddies, they get out….like our good friends David Shayler and Annie Machon. Maybe Williams was one of these but not so lucky.

Death mystery spy Gareth Williams was terror plot hero

Gordon Thomas and James Fielding — Daily Express Oct 2010

gareth williamsThe 31-year-old, whose body was found in a sports bag in his flat two months ago, uncovered the plot in a secret eavesdropping mission in Afghanistan.

He played a pivotal role in intercepting phone calls from British jihadists at a training camp before matching their voice prints to those on a data bank.

Details of the Al Qaeda threats emerged last weekend and involved coordinated gun massacres on the streets of London, Paris and Berlin. Transport hubs and landmarks such as Buckingham Palace, the Eiffel Tower and the Brandenburg Gate were all listed as potential targets.

Mr Williams made several trips to Afghanistan as one of a 10-strong team of specialists from GCHQ, the Government’s listening post and the NSA, the US equivalent.

He was “cherry-picked” for the job because of his specialist skills using voice analysis software. The codebreaker, on a year’s secondment to MI6 in London from GCHQ in Cheltenham, Gloucs, could identify accents picked up in phone conversations with terror suspects from the Midlands, Manchester and Rochdale, Lancashire.

He pinpointed at least one voice print to Pakistani-born Briton Abdul Jabbar, who was known to UK security services. Jabbar was killed in a US drone strike earlier this month after GCHQ alerted the US to his whereabouts.

Information gleaned by Mr Williams also led to the arrest of the suspected ringleader, Admed Sidiqi, captured in Kabul in July.

Sidiqi, a German national from Hamburg, is being held at a US airbase where he has provided details about the attacks.

Though Mr Williams helped save the lives of thousands in Europe, terror alerts are high.

A source said: “The professionalism and skill of operatives like Gareth helped to thwart a disaster but we don’t have a total insight into what is unfolding.

“We are still aware of ‘sleeper cells’ ready to spring into action at a moment’s notice.”

Up to 20 British-born militants are in the lawless border tribal lands between Afghanistan and Pakistan.
