Tanten ifråga är en expert på terroismens finansiering. Mycket kunnig!
Hinner du läsa så är det mycket värdefullt!
Historien mellan USA och Afghanistan går tillbaka till åtminstone kriget mellan Afghanistan och Sovjetunionen. (Rambo III är dedikerad till "the freedom fighters" om jag inte missminner mig? - dessa är desamma som Mujaheddinkrigarna...). Många saudier ville hjälpa det muslimska Afghanistan från att invaderas från otrogna ryssar. Man satte upp en lång finansierings- och vapenhandelsrutt med både saudiska och amerikanska pengar. Men via Pakistans säkerhetstjänst som fick över pengar och vapen till Afghanska Mujaheddinkrigare. En av de som anlände till Afghanistan för att organisera detta var Osama Bin Laden. Bin Laden-familjen är en av de äldsta och mest respekterade saudiska familjerna, som dessutom har långa och djupa kontakter med den saudiska kungafamiljen (som styr saudiarabien med hjärnhand och med enorma summor pengar!).

USA kunde under kalla kriget inte motverka ryssarna helt offentligt utan använde samma kanaler som saudierna. Dock är puritanen Osama Bin Laden starkt kritisk mot den korrupta kungafamiljen i saudi. Vid det första gulfkriget erbjöd sig Osama att attackera Irak med sina Mujaheddinkrigare, ett förslag som ignorerades. Istället försvarade USA Kuwait, med en mellanlandning av sina styrkor i Saudiarabien. Saudierna är milt sagt xenofoba.. Att så många smutsiga otrogna sätter sin fot i Saudiarabien ses som något barbariskt hemskt. I synnerhet av fundamentalister. A lá Osama. Då USA:s historia kring olje-exploatering är, likt britternas kolonialattityd, mycket förargande för flertalet gulfmedborgare, samt att deras stöd till Israel är en enorm stötesten, samt att Bush lyckades att använda ordet "crusade(korståg)" i ett tal (många anser att ett kristet korståg är pågående från väst), samt att Bush-familjen är i synnerhet i oljebiznizen osv osv skapar ett enormt hat mot USA.

Bushs företag som gröngöling i olje-värdlen i Texas, Arbusto, var finansierat bla av Saudieerna (kungahuset) och även familjen Bin Laden (inte Osama dock..). Vissa menar detta vara ett sätt att "smygstödja" Bushs far, för motprestation, som var kongressman och sedan president.
//Opposition against, and conflict within, the series of communist governments that followed, was considerable. As part of a Cold War strategy, the United States government began to covertly fund and train anti-government Mujahideen forces through the Pakistani secret service agency known as Inter Services Intelligence (ISI), which were derived from discontented Muslims in the country who opposed the official atheism of the Marxist regime, in 1978. In order to bolster the local Communist forces the Soviet Union - citing the 1978 Treaty of Friendship, Cooperation and Good Neighborliness that had been signed between the two countries in 1978 - intervened on December 24, 1979. The Soviet occupation resulted in a mass exodus of over 5 million Afghans who moved into refugee camps in neighboring Pakistan and Iran. More than 3 million alone settled in Pakistan. Faced with mounting international pressure and the loss of approximately 15,000 Soviet soldiers as a result of Mujahideen opposition forces trained by the United States, Pakistan, and other foreign governments, the Soviets withdrew ten years later, in 1989. For more details, see Soviet war in Afghanistan.
The Soviet withdrawal was seen as an ideological victory in the U.S., which ostensibly had backed the Mujahideen in order to counter Soviet influence in the vicinity of the oil-rich Persian Gulf. Following the removal of the Soviet forces in 1989, the U.S. and its allies lost interest in Afghanistan and did little to help rebuild the war-ravaged country. The USSR continued to support the regime of Dr. Najibullah (formerly the head of the secret service, Khad) until its downfall in 1992. However, the absence of the Soviet forces resulted in the downfall of the government as it steadily lost ground to the guerrilla forces.[2]
As the vast majority of the elites and intellectuals had either been systematically eliminated by the Communists, or escaped to take refuge abroad, a dangerous leadership vacuum came into existence. Fighting continued among the various Mujahidin factions, eventually giving rise to a state of warlordism. The chaos and corruption that dominated post-Soviet Afghanistan in turn spawned the rise of the Taliban in response to the growing chaos. The most serious fighting during this growing civil conflict occurred in 1994, when 10,000 people were killed during factional fighting in Kabul.
During their short lived reign in Afghanistan, the Taliban forced the women to wear a full burqaExploiting the chaotic situation in Afghanistan, a few regional bedfellows including fundamentalist Afghans trained in refugee camps in western Pakistan, the Pakistani ISI, the regional Mafia (well-established network that smuggled mainly Japanese electronics and tyres before the Russian invasion, now involved in drug smuggling) and Arab extremist groups (that were looking for a safe operational hub) joined forces and helped to create the Taliban movement.[3] Backed by Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, America and other strategic allies who claim that they have come to help Afghans rebuild there country nowadays, the Taliban developed as a politico-religious force, and eventually seized power in 1996. The Taliban were able to capture 90% of the country, aside from the Afghan Northern Alliance strongholds primarily found in the northeast in the Panjshir Valley. The Taliban sought to impose a strict interpretation of Islamic Sharia law and gave safe haven and assistance to individuals and organizations that were implicated as terrorists, most notably Osama bin Laden's Al-Qaeda network.
Massive bombing and invasion of the country by the United States and its allies following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks helped opposition factions and forced the Taliban's downfall. In late 2001, major leaders from the Afghan opposition groups and diaspora met in Bonn, and agreed on a plan for the formulation of a new government structure that resulted in the inauguration of Hamid Karzai as Chairman of the Afghan Interim Authority (AIA) on December 2001. After a nationwide Loya Jirga in 2002, Karzai was elected President.//

Bush, Cheney och Rumsfeld har sedan tidigare (under deras karriärer inom affärsvärlden dvs innan kriget och 9/11) velat dra en pipeline genom Afghanistan. SoCal (amerikanskt oljebolag) hade en mycket speciell förhandlare för att kunna diskutera detta med talibanernas Mulla Omar: Karzai..
Talibanerna hade dock inte att göra med 9/11 att göra vad jag vet. Osama hade blivit utkastad ur Saudiarabien, Afrika, men hittade skydd hos talibanerna. Dessa vägrade som muslimer att lämna ut en annan muslim. Och pipeline-planen kom igång.
3. Each time an American reads a newspaper or takes a sip at a soft drink, they contribute to Osama bin Laden's financial empire
Terror businesses could not stay out of the largest consumer market in the world, the US. In the mid 1990s, while residing in Sudan, Osama bin Laden acquired 70% of Gum Arabic Company Ltd, which produces about 80% of the world supply of gum arabic. Extracted from the sap of the acacia trees that grow in Sudan, gum arabic is used to make ink stick to newspapers, to prevent sediment forming in soft drinks and to create a protective shell around sweets and pills to keep them fresh. The US is the largest importer in the world. Bin Laden's investment proved to be a very sound one. In November 1997, when Clinton imposed economic sanctions on Sudan, a number of American importers including the Newspaper Association of America, and the National Soft Drinks Association of America, objected. Eventually, Gum Arabic was exempted. / Loretta Napoleoni
