The tragic story of John O´Neil, the highest Terrorist-hunter of the USA, who out of
frustration about the hindrance to his search for bin Laden discontinued his
job and died in the World Trade Centre,
is causing now also in the USA waves. Even
CNN saw itself forced, to deal with this case and the book of Brisard
and Guillaume Dasquie Bin Laden- la verite interdite, which detected him.
The expert, who CNN was asked
by CNN, the former UN-weapon inspector and present employee of the
Rockefeller-Institute "Council on Foreign Relations", Richard Butler,
didn’t made much efforts to reject or criticise the thesis of the book. That
becomes more amazement as Brisard and Dasquie among other things under
Vocation. of John O'Neill claim a
possible capture is that Ladins was prevented to not endanger American oil
interests.
So O'Neill and his became FBI
investigators after the attacks on the U.S. barracks in Saudi Arabia and on the
U.S. battleship "Cole" were held back to search there and in Yemen
for the perpetrators.
And during the pipeline
negotiations with the Taliban government the supply of a possible delivery of
bin Laden have been refused by the U.S.
representatives- because in this case the Afghans demanded a higher participation
in the pipeline profits. Butler says rather laconically in the CNN interview
about it: "We have the oil there and this is a fundamental thing. We
shouldn't lose this basic reality out of the eyes. The population of the United
States represents 5% of the world population and uses up 40% of the oil of the
world. Oil is therefore such an important thing ....and there are important oil
reserves in Central Asia and it would be the best way to get them to the sea by
building a pipeline through Afghanistan. That is the net and I think that not
all of the facts are reported to us.
It
is denied, claimed, that certain meetings haven't taken place although they
actually took place. The most interesting thin which the French Writers
reported is that they could look inside archives. We couldn’t understand their
accent exactly but I know what that means: they had access to notes of
diplomatic conversations."
But even without insight into
diplomat protocols in can be stated in the meantime that the agenda of the
so-called "war on terror" in Afghanistan only consists of two letters
in the end: Oil!
Hamid Karsai appointed boss of
the Afghan provisional government at the Bonn Petersberg functioned as adviser
during the pipeline negotiations with the Taliban in the order of the U.S.
company Unocal (source: Le Monde, 5.12.2001).
Also the new U.S. special
representative for Afghanistan, Zalmay Khalilzad, who entered Kabul in the
beginning of January, also was for years on the payroll of the multinational
oil giant in Houston. Khalilzad, in Kabul born US-citizen, served under Bush
Senior as sub-under-secretary in the defence ministry and was as Unocal-man
from the middle of the nineties substantially involved in the pipeline
negotiations of the Taliban government.
Even 1997, when the Violations
of human rights of the regime were obvious he wrote in the Washington Post
absolutely in the sense of his Employer:
"The Taliban don't
practice the Anti-US fundamentalism like Iran. We should be willing to
appreciate this and offer humanity help
and international support of the economic construction. It’s time for the USA,
to re-engage."
On his first press conference
in Kabul Khalizad now entitled the Taliban as Sponsors of the international
Terrorism and announced that the USA
would continue their campaign as long as it’s allied had switched of Bin
Ladin´s Al-Qaida-Network.
Well, that on a billion
worth’s construction site, no scattered partisans and potential saboteurs are
needed, is obviously logic. That, however, interests around the construction
site and the business interests of the involved enterprises are primary - and not the liberation of the world from
terrorists -, can by looking at the personnel employment of the top positions
in government and US-embassy remain only secret to another blind man.
