Was Osama killed in late 2001?
- For creating due cause for the so-called War on Terrorism. Osama always had to be there, releasing threatening videos and taking credit of terrorist events worldwide.
- For destabilizing Pakistan.
- Assuming Osama was a Globalist, the Powers That Be would never kill him because he was more or less family. He would get a mock-death when he had outlived his purpose. But there was no need for his real death.
- Pre-1990s: Omar Saeed Shaikh was born in Britain to wealthy Pakistani parents. He was a British citizen and attended prestigious institutions. He is described as a brilliant pupil. Later, he attended the London School of Economics [New Yorker, 2/18/2002], where he studied Applied Mathematics and Economics. Someone at the London School of Economics was impressed by his potential abilities as an Intelligence operative.
- 1990s: According to President Musharraf’s autobiography, In the Line of Fire, Omar Saeed Shaikh may have been recruited by the MI-6 before April 1993. Shortly thereafter, he went to Bosnia to support the Muslim cause there, presumably as an MI-6 operative. The London Times corroborates this, saying that Saeed later had dealings with British Intelligence [London Times, 9/26/2006]. Another report in 2002 hints that the CIA may have recruited Saeed after 9/11 [Triblive.com, 3/3/2002].
- 1994: Saeed infiltrated Indian Kashmir and kidnapped Western tourists. The idea was to force the Indian government to free some specific people in Indian jails. However, Indian police stumbled upon the location where Saeed was holding the tourists hostage. Saeed was caught and detained. Strangely, he was not hanged like some of his accomplices.
- 1999: An Indian passenger plane is hijacked from Nepal and taken to Kandahar (under Taliban control). The hijackers secure the release of Saeed, along with Maulana Masood Azhar and Mushtaq Ahmed Zargar in exchange for the hostages. Maulana Masood Azhar recieves all the limelight and little attention is focused in Saeed. One of the hijackers was Amjad Farooqi. Like Saeed, Amjad is also considered to be a double agent of Western interests. Al-Qaida and Hezbollah are also alleged to have been involved in the hijacking.
- 2000: With the help of the ISI, Saeed and Maulana Azhar establish the Jaish-e-Mohammad. But he soons falls out with Maulana Azhar. It seems Azhar wants to remain some degree of independence from the ISI. Saeed has extremely good interpersonal skills, and manages to penetrate the core of the ISI for his Western handlers. He also manages to penetrate Al-Qaida and the Taliban. At the ISI, it seems that Saeed reports to Lt. Gen. Mohammed Aziz Khan [Press Trust of India, 9/17/2001]. It is reasonable to say that Western Intelligence Agencies trusted Saeed strongly enough to allow him to participate in the groundwork of the 9/11. In other words, Saeed knew well enough that he was participating in a false flag operation.
- 2001: In the summer of 2001, Saeed transferred $100,000 from Pakistan to two Florida bank accounts operated by alleged 9/11 hijacker, Mohammed Atta [CNN, 10/1/2001]. Later, there are reports that Saeed was acting on orders from ISI director Lt. Gen. Mahmood Ahmed [CNN, 10/28/2001]. This could have been an attempt by Saeed’s handlers to smear Mahmood, since Mahmood was a Musharraf supporter. From September 4th 2001 to September 11th 2001, ISI director Lt. Gen. Mahmood Ahmed is in Washington on a mysterious visit that involves meetings at the Pentagon, the White House, the CIA headquarters and the National Security Council [News (Islamabad), 9/10/2001].
- 2001: After 9/11, there is an attempt to obfuscate Saeed’s role as a 9/11 paymaster by using variations of his name in Western media. ISI director Lt. Gen. Mahmood Ahmed is found to have several conversations with Saeed, and is replaced, presumably on the insistence of America. It is important to note that Mahmood was a Musharraf supporter, and the Powers That Be wanted their own man in his position during this critical period.
- September 2001: Saeed acts as a mediator between the ISI and the Taliban in securing the secret transfer of Osama to Pakistan. He also helps producing a video for Osama, which helps fuel Western rage and suspicion against Osama [Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, 3/3/2002]. It is important to note that America was indirectly assisting Osama’s transfer to Pakistan. For example, US special forces avoided ground operations against Osama in this critical period. Up to this point, Saeed believed he was helping the good guys by fighting terrorism. Now, he saw for himself that his Western handlers were trying to keep Osama alive, and that Osama too, was compromised. Saeed lives in Lahore and is frequently seen in parties of government leaders [USA Today, 2/25/2002; Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, 3/3/2002]. It seems Saeed has fully assimilated in Pakistan and has no intention to return to Britain. He seems to have fallen in love with Pakistan and its culture. He also marries in Pakistan and has a child.
- December 2001: Saeed manages to kill Osama during one of his regular meetings with him in Pakistan. He could have had accomplices (possibly Amjad Farooqi, who was murdered in 2004) and he did have access to explosives. He gets away, and takes with him critical evidence such as video and photographs of the feat. Both Western and Pakistani media hush up the event, but word gets around. For example, Dr. Clive Williams, director of Terrorism Studies at the Australian National University claims in 2006, that he saw evidence provided by an Indian colleague that Osama had died of massive organ failure in April 2005 [Sydney Morning Herald, 1/16/2006]. The “massive organ failure” could have been the result of gunshot wounds inflicted by Saeed, and Osama could have been on life support since December 2001. Dr. Clive also mentions that Osama had not released any statements since quite some time. Three days later, an audio statement purporting to be from Osama is released, to keep up the myth that he is alive.
- December 26th 2001: Pakistan Observer announces that Osama had died due to health complications.
- December 2001: Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl begins investigating connections between the ISI, the CIA and Al-Qaida. His reporting is ground-breaking and he is considered to be sympathetic to Muslims. There are three possible theories linking Saeed to Pearl: 1.With both the Pakistani and Western media ignoring Saeed’s feat, Saeed was seeking a rendezvous with Pearl and intended to provide video and photo evidence of the murder of Osama. It is also possible that Saeed had been leaking information to Pearl early on. Pearl naively passed on this information to the Rothschild oriented Wall Street Journal or to the CIA (He was working with CIA agent Robert Baer on a story on Khalid Shaikh Mohammed [United Press International, 4/9/2004]). This makes both Saeed and Pearl a target of the Powers That Be. 2. An alternate theory is that Pearl was being used (knowingly or unknowingly) to lure Saeed out of the shadows. 3. Another theory is that there was no connection between Saeed and Pearl. The Powers That Be simply decided to get rid of two birds with one stone. The last story Pearl was investigating was on ties between Khalid Shaikh Mohammed and the Qatari government [Salon 10/22/2003].
- January 5th 2002: The FBI requests permission from the Pakistani government to interview Saeed’s associate, Maulana Masood Azhar [Gulf News, 1/5/2002]. They are desperate to know Saeed’s whereabouts.
- January 9th 2002: The Powers That Be are mad with Saeed. Suddenly, a US Grand Jury indicts Saeed in the 1994 kidnapping of Western tourists in Kashmir (one of them was an American). On January 9th 2002, Wendy Chamberlin, the US ambassador to Pakistan, officially asks the Pakistani government for assistance in tracking down Saeed [Associated Press, 2/24/2002; CNN, 2/24/2002; Los Angeles Times, 2/25/2002]. Remember that this indictment is overdue by eight years! Only the killing of Osama could make America so mad.
Remember that this indictment is overdue by eight years! Only the killing of Osama could make America so mad. - January 18th 2002: President Musharraf suddenly announces that Osama is most likely dead due to health complications [CNN, 1/18/2002].
- January 23rd 2002: Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl is kidnapped in Pakistan. He is murdered on February 22nd 2002. The kidnappers, a previously unknown group called the “The National Movement for the Restoration of Pakistani Sovereignty” make unusual demands that could have never been fulfilled. It is clear they wanted Pearl dead rather than having their demands met. The ISI and Jaish-e-Mohammad are believed to be linked to Pearl’s murder, since the land on which the murder took place belongs to a trust closely linked with Jaish-e-Mohammad. Close to fifteen people participated in the abduction and murder of Pearl. Later on March 3rd 2002, Secretary of State Colin Powell denied that the ISI was linked to Pearl’s murder [Guardian, 4/5/2002]. The Pakistani police altered and destroyed evidence at the scene [Washington Post, 3/10/2002].
- February 5th 2002: The FBI becomes insistent that Saeed is behind the kidnapping and murder. Saeed’s family are rounded up and threatened with being harmed. This is a well known ISI tactic. Saeed finally turns himself in to Ijaz Shah, his former boss at the ISI. The ISI keep him for a week before handing him to Pakistani police on February 12th. What happened during this week remains a mystery. Saeed turned himself in to the ISI on February 5th, and Pearl was murdered on February 22nd. Clearly, Saeed could not have been involved in the murder. Yet he is framed. President Musharraf would later say that he wanted Saeed hanged, and this was before his trial had begun [BBC, 4/12/2002].
- February 14th 2002: President Pervez Musharraf meets with President Bush in Washington, presumably to arrange the cover-up of Osama’s death. Bush anounces that the US would cancel $1 billion of Pakistan’s debt and reschedule the repayment of the remaining $1.8 million of Pakistan’s debt. Bush also promises $100 million for education reform. Was this payback for covering up Osama’s death? [Rashid, 2008, pp. 148-149]. In other words, America was willing to pay up to $2 billion to keep Osama alive in the minds of people.
In other words, America was willing to pay up to $2 billion to keep Osama alive in the minds of people. - February 21st 2002: A cartoonish video is released detailing the beheading of Daniel Pearl. There is a clear attempt to distract from Pearl’s investigations into the ISI and the Al-Qaida by focusing on his Jewishness. Some conspiracy theorists have claimed that it contains symbolism related to a Masonic ritual. And some conspiracy theorists argue that the video is a fake. Strangely, the video was uploaded from Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia [Salon 10/22/2003]. Around that time, Pakistani press coverage focuses on Pearl’s Jewishness. They also try to tarnish Pearl’s fellow reporter, Asra Nomani, as a possible Indian spy [Salon 10/22/2003].
- March 17th 2002: In response to Saeed’s detention, a new group named after him (called Lashkar-e-Omar) attacks a Christian church near the American embassy and kills two Americans. The attack appears to be a false flag attack intended to give the impression that Saeed was running his own militia in Pakistan, and that he specialises in killing Americans.
- April 5th 2002: Saeed is tried in a secret Pakistani anti-terrorism court. To quote the London Times, “Sheikh is no ordinary terrorist but a man who has connections that reach high into Pakistan’s military and intelligence elite and into the innermost circles of Osama bin Laden and the al-Qaeda organization.” [London Times, 4/21/2002].
- May 8th 2002: Lashkar-e-Omar kills a bus full of French engineers using a car bomb. Like the previous operation, this too appears to be a false flag operation intended to demonise Saeed and make him appear like Daniel Pearl’s killer.
- June 14th 2002: Lashkar-e-Omar kills 12 Pakistanis and wounds 45 others by exploding a car bomb outside the heavily guarded US consulate. Several of the bombers are arrested, and they include a paramilitary ranger and a naval soldier. They say that the same car bomb had been intended for President Musharraf, but it had failed to explode. [New York Times, 6/15/2002; Rashid, 2008, pp. 154]. Like the previous operation, this attack also appears to be a false flag intended to demonise Saeed, and it coincides with Saeed’s trial.
- July 15th 2002: Saeed is convicted for the murder of Daniel Pearl and is sentenced to death by hanging (as President Musharraf wanted). The United States avoids interrogating Saeed and the March 14th 2002 US indictment of Saeed for the murder of Daniel Pearl makes scant reference to Saeed’s involvement with the ISI and Al-Qaida. Neither is there any mention of him channelling funds to Mohammad Atta. Saeed has appealed the conviction, but as of July 2005, the appeals proceeding has been adjourned 32 times [International Herald Tribune, 7/29/2005]. Saeed’s attorney claims that President Musharraf’s autobiography said that Al-Qaida operative Khalid Sheikh Mohammed was involved in the murder of Daniel Pearl [Christian Science Monitor, 11/8/2006]. He also quotes a recent statement by Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, in which he claims to have beheaded Daniel Pearl [Guardian, 3/19/2007].
- July 16th-21st 2002: Pakistani police arrest two men who could have been the real masterminds behind Pearl’s murder [Guardian, 7/18/2002]. On May 16th, Pearl’s body is found and identified, but the FBI does not officially release DNA results because official confirmation of the body would have meant a new trial [Independent, 7/16/2002]. Testimony against Saeed turns out to be doubtful [Guardian, 7/18/2002, Independent, 7/21/2002]. According to Pakistani law, the trial was to be completed in a week but it took three months. The trial judge and venue were changed three times [BBC, 7/16/2002]. Saud Memon, the man who owned the land where Pearl was murdered, dies under suspicious circumstances on May 18th 2007 [Associated Press, 5/18/2007;Daily Times (Lahore), 5/19/2007; Indo-Asian News Service, 5/19/2007].
- August 2002: Prominent American conspiracy theorist Alex Jones announces that sources within the US Army have told him that Osama had died and his body was being kept on ice, to be rolled out at a politically expedient time. He cites a Saudi newspaper (Asharq Al-Awsat) that claimed that Saad Bin Laden had taken command of Al-Qaida ever since the American invasion (indicating that Osama may have been dead or incapacitated). Alex Jones further reiterated his claim on May 2nd 2011.
- October 9th 2002: Someone pretending to be Osama calls for Pakistani people to assassinate Musharraf [Rashid, 2008, pp. 230, 436]. Clearly, the Powers That Be are not happy at Musharraf’s handling of the Osama death cover-up.
- December 2003: The Powers That Be are not satisfied with President Musharraf’s handling of the Osama death cover-up. Musharraf has also started a secret overhaul of the ISI [Christian Science Monitor, 2/22/2002]. His autobiography also contains furtive hints that the Saeed/Pearl saga was a cover-up of something much bigger. In March 2002, Musharraf had stated that Pearl was caught up in “intelligence games.” [Washington Post, 5/3/2002]. The first assassination attempt on Musharraf came in June 2002 (as mentioned earlier) but failed due to technical reasons. It was conducted by Lashkar-e-Omar, the same group that was conspicuously covering up Saeed’s feat. With Osama dead, Ayman Al-Zawahiri calls for Musharraf’s assassination in September 2003. The second assassination attempt comes in December 2003. A powerful bomb goes off as he tries to cross a bridge. Later, two suicide bombers drive car bombs into his convoy but fail. Links to Jaish-e-Mohammad and Al-Qaida are discovered in the investigation. Al-Qaida operative Abu Faraj al-Libbi is involved in this assassination attempt and was later captured in May 2005.
- In July 3-11 2007, the Pakistani military raided the Red Mosque in Islamabad after Al-Qaida operatives set up positions within it. After the raid, letters were discovered from Ayman Al-Zawahiri to the mosque officials, who were sympathetic to Osama [Sunday Times (London), 7/15/2007]. On July 11th 2007, Al-Zawahiri called for a revolt against Musharraf [BBC, 7/11/2007; Associated Press, 7/11/2007] The absence of Osama in the latest calls for Musharraf’s overthrow suggests that he had died, and that Al-Zawahiri was frantically trying to cover-up his death by using the Red Mosque to stage a coup against Musharraf. Had Musharraf destroyed the Red Mosque in the raid, he could have faced a revolt on a nationwide level. Later on September 20th 2007, someone pretending to be Osama released a tape repeating that Musharraf should be overthrown [Counterterrorismblog(.org), 9/2007; BBC, 9/20/2007]. It is important to note that Al-Qaida never threatens Musharraf’s successor in s similar way because he is a sock-puppet of the Powers That Be.
- October 4th 2007: Former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto enters into a deal with President Musharraf in which she will be allowed to return to Pakistan in exchange for her party abstaining from voting during Musharraf’s re-election two days later. Musharraf thus gains a second term [Rashid, 2008, pp. 386-387].
- October 19th 2007: Former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto returns to Pakistan but the welcome rally is bombed, and 139 people die and 400 are injured. the government is blamed for lax security.
- November 2nd 2007: In an interview with David Frost, Benazir Bhutto claims that the ISI, Osama’s son Hamza Bin Laden (note that she did not mention Osama, implying that he was dead), and ISI linked warlord Baitullah Mehsud (of the Tehrik-e-Taliban) were intent on her assassination. She also refers to Omar Saeed Shaikh as “the man who murdered Osama bin Laden.” David Frost ignores this comment. It is edited out but later the BBC posts a full version of the interview [BBC, 4/1/2008].
She also refers to Omar Saeed Shaikh as “the man who murdered Osama bin Laden.” - October 26th 2007: Benazir Bhutto sends an email to her friend Mark Segal. She claimed that President Musharraf was not providing her adequate security and security equipment. And that Musharraf was to be held responsible if anything happened to her. Musharraf had denied her jammers and special vehicles [Wolf Blitzer and Mark Segal on CNN Situation Room, 12/27/2007].
- December 27th 2007: Benazir Bhutto is assassinated and Al-Qaida takes responsibility. It is believed Ayman Al-Zawahiri is involved in the planning [AKI, 12/27/2007; ABC News, 12/27/2007].
- May 1st 2011: American Special Forces raid a compound in Abbottabad and claim to have killed Osama. While the compound did house some female members of Osama’s family, Osama had died many years ago. Osama’s alleged “body” is conveniently buried at sea within 24 hours. A later FOIA request in November 2012 reveals that no American sailors aboard the USS Carl Vinton witnessed Osama’s burial at sea.
- May 5th 2011: Former ISI chief Hamid Gul claimed that the raid on Abottabad was a hoax and that Osama had died many years ago [CNN, 5/5/2011].
- August 6th 2011: An American military helicopter is shot down in Afghanistan, killing 25 American Special Operations personnel. The personnel were believed to be involved in the raid on the Abbottabad compound.
