( 2000s: )     2001
The iconic "terrorist" attack on New York, designed to kick start the domestic repression phase of the "War On Terror".
The year in which 9/11 was followed by the Amerithrax plot. This pair of dramatic false flag attacks, kick started US imperial aggression abroad and the rollout of a Police State at home.

2001 will no doubt live in the minds of those who lived through it, just as the assassination of JFK froze a moment of time for an earlier generation. In fact, both were carried out by the same group, which Mark Gorton refers to as "the cabal". Wikispooks has some fairly solid pages covering the 9-11 event and its aftermath, which is a good place to start if you are new to the world of deep events. In April 2001, James Bamford exposed Operation Northwoods in his book Body of Secrets: Anatomy of the Ultra-Secret National Security Agency, forty years after the US military top brass planned a strategy of tension to create a fake casus belli.

September 11th, 2001

Full article: 9-11

US President George W. Bush was safely out of harm's way in a Florida elementary school, reading a story to a class of kids. Informed by the Secret Service about an plane hitting the WTC, he blithely ignored it and carried on reading...

After the JFK Assassination and Watergate, 9-11 was the third clandestine coup carried out by the Cabal. It was a complex, multi-part plan that was used to sweep aside potential opposition to the massive curtailing of civil liberties in USA. Blamed on Ossama Bin Laden and "Al Qaeda", it was used to promote fear and Islamophobia, a foreshadowing of many false flag attacks come come this century, of which the majority would be carried out by Western/Mossad trained operatives, but blamed on "radical Islamists".

The Most Telling Slip Ups

Full articles: 9-11/WTC7/Destruction, 9-11/WTC7/Destruction/Foreknowledge

In the event, the 9-11 operation went much less smoothly that the Cabal's earlier coups. In particular, no plane arrived to destroy World Trade Center 7. Considering that it was packed with explosives and some preliminary explosions had heavily damaged the building's internal structure, this was a big dilemma. At 5:20pm the explosives were detonated, destroying the building in just 7 seconds. Another extraordinary mess up caused 3 TV channels to report on the collapse before it happened. This evidence was ignored by the 9/11 Commission, which (illegally) failed to check the dust for explosive residues. Beyond the reports of the day itself, the commercially-controlled media said nothing about WTC7 for many years.

9/11 Truth

Mike Ruppert at Portland State University, Nov. 28, 2001

A few activists were quick to denounce 9/11 as a false flag attack. Quick to spot the deception were Michael Ruppert, Lyn Gerry and David McGowan, with a special mention going to William Cooper, who warned 10 weeks before the event that "Whatever they're going to blame on Usama bin Laden - don't you believe it...They will soon do something outlandish to gain the support of the Sheeple". Cooper was shot dead by the US Marshals Service on 6 November, one of many unnatural deaths of those who publicly questioned the official story of 9/11. Hiroshi Hasegawa, a Japanese TV commentator who was publicly skeptical about the story, fell to his death on 15 October.

Amerithrax

Full article: 2001 Anthrax attacks

As a follow up to 9-11, the cabal sent weaponised anthrax spores to those US senators who were opposing their push to reduce civil liberties through the USA Patriot Act. Perhaps as a test of the Islamophobia and fear that the 9-11 attacks had created, many Muslims were illegally detained and beaten up by the US police. After a $100,000,000 "investigation" of this incident, it was eventually blamed on a "lone nut".

2001 Mexican legislative assembly attack

Full article: 2001 Mexican legislative assembly attack

On 15 November 2001, two members of the Mossad were arrested in the Mexican legislative assembly, carrying 9 mm automatic pistols, a military hand grenade, electrical wiring and other bomb related materials. This incident was the top story on Mexican TV the day it happened, but disappeared after only a couple of days. It was reported by Pravda, but not by Western commercially-controlled media. The internet archive however recorded a report (in Spanish) on the Mexican government website.

Invasion of Afghanistan

Full article: 2001 Invasion of Afghanistan

A massive pre-planned military invasion was uneashed against Afghanistan, under the pretext that this was some kind of retaliation for the atrocity of 9/11. The production of opium (which had precipitously declined after the Taliban government had outlawed it) surged following the US led NATO invasion and for the next decade and a half (at least) never returned to anything like the historic pre-invasion low - yielding massive profits for the illegal drug trade.

 

Events

Event	Date	Description
Al-Yamamah arms deal		A complex series of multi billion dollar arms for oil deals set up under the government of Margaret Thatcher, involving a bunch of deep state arms dealers, and her son - who earned £12 million. Fines levied have been in the hundreds of millions, while kickbacks amount to billions.
Operation Mass Appeal		An effort by MI6 to facilitate the UK's invasion of Iraq.
International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda
Saville Inquiry		An investigation into Bloody Sunday which left 14 people dead.
Pan Am Flight 103/The Trial		A juryless trial which sentenced Abdelbaset al-Megrahi to life imprisonment for the Lockerbie bombing.
9-11/Exposure		This article concerns the ever increasing public exposure of the events of 9-11.
2001 Israeli Nerve Gas Attacks
Le Cercle/2001 (Washington)
Mail Isolation Control and Tracking		A US mail program to photograph of the exterior of every piece of mail that is processed in the United States.
Children Overboard affair
9-11/Official narrative		The 9-11 plot, a false flag attack staged by the US/Deep state in concert with other deep states, was blamed on "19 hijackers" who were members of Al Qaeda. The official opposition narrative states that small scale corruption within the US government prevented the successful apprehension of the gang of 19, and also lead to some relatively minor innaccuracies and inconsistencies between the different official narratives.
Bilderberg/2001
Peru/Truth and Reconciliation Commission		An attempt to restore a functioning and non-criminal government to Peru.
Operation Dark Winter		An exercise where senior former officials would respond to a bioterrorist induced national security crisis. Uncannily predicted the 2001 anthrax attacks and other narratives. Held June 2001.
9-11/Insider Trading		A mound of evidence points to insider trading. However, the 9/11 Commission decided not to investigate the matter and the SEC destroyed important records.
9-11/Air Defence		46 mock hijack exercises were ongoing on the morning of September 11th and planes were unavailable, contributing to an unprecedented failure. Norman Mineta's testimony to the 9/11 Commission (simply ignored in their final report), implying a direct stand down order, would seem to explain the total failure of air defence around the Pentagon. Although standard operating procedure was not followed, those responsible were promoted rather than disciplined after the event.
9-11/WTC Controlled demolition		On September 11th, 3 steel reinforced buildings from the World Trade Center suddenly collapsed at freefall speed into their own footprints, a set of events to which Wikipedia devotes only a single article, one purged of 'fringe' scientific evidence at odds with the official narrative.
9-11/George Washington Bridge plot		The FBI arrested at least one van of men (two or three) which was found to contain tons of explosives. This was announced on the day, two conflicting reports, but later retracted. No alternative explanation is known to have been given.
9-11/Pentagon		The Pentagon was attacked on September 11th, allegedly by American Airlines Flight 77 piloted by Hani Hanjour, though many have stated that this seems unlikely. A lot of CCTV footage of what happened has been confiscated by the US government and not released.
9-11/Flight 93		The official narrative, that the plan crashed into soft earth and buried itself, explaining the complete lack of luggage, plane or body parts, was questioned by reporters at the time, but that coverage seems not to have been repeated.
9-11		A complex and spectacular set of events in New York and Washington. The US government was quick to blame Al Qaeda, though no evidence of guilt was presented and there is much suspicion about what Al Qaeda really is. In the USA 9-11 assisted the Patriot Act's roll back of civil liberties, the stepping up of domestic surveillance and the financial advancement of the military industrial complex. Abroad 9-11 helped launched wars on Iraq and Afghanistan that had been planned long before.
Patrick Haseldine/Suppressed Lockerbie evidence ignited 9-11 attacks
9-11/E-4B		An E-4B was spotted over the White house and the Pentagon on 9/11. The official narrative for more than a decade was not to talk about it, although it was reported on CNN and video, photos and eye witnesses do exist. Later declassification did prove the basic fact that the plane was present.
9-11/WTC7/Destruction/Foreknowledge		The first reference to a third tower collapsing is by Jane Standley of the BBC at around 10:45 a.m. Other references are later that afternoon.
9-11/WTC7/Destruction		Compared to the WTC Twin Towers, few people have seen video footage of the collapse of the 47-story WTC building 7, but the event was predicted and recorded by at least 3 TV networks and exactly resembles a controlled demolition. The event was subject to a news blackout by commercially controlled media for years afterwards, no mention of WTC7 was made in the 9/11 Commission's final report and Wikipedia has no separate page for this event.
2001 Anthrax attacks		A week after 9/11, weaponised anthrax spores was sent from a US lab to media offices and to two U.S. Senators who were obstructing the rollback of civil liberties. A $100M FBI investigation concluded that posthumously blamed a "lone nut" researcher. In 2015, the FBI head of the investigation sued the US Attorney General alleging that exculpating evidence had been withheld.
2001 Invasion of Afghanistan		The ongoing war in Afghanistan, instigated within a month of 9/11, supposedly in retaliation, with the claimed justification - for which no evidence has been presented - that the attacks were planned by Ossama bin Laden, and that he was based in Afghanistan.
2001 Mexican legislative assembly attack		Two Israelis caught with false passports grenades, explosives and guns in the Mexican parliament a month after 9-11. Later released without charge. Western corporate media uninterested.
Patriot Act		A legislative coup d'état
2001 Indian Parliament attack

SDS			Since the 1970s, the formerly separate deep states have gradually integrated and now routinely conspire to subvert governments and international organisations. The collective effort to cover-up 9/11 saw this emerging supergroup fuse into a single Supranational Deep State, one with direct control over governments, central banks and global trafficking of drugs, weapons, people etc. Its reliance on deception, however, continues to make its long term prospects far from certain.
