archive.4plebs.org/x/thread/30918838/ >You thinking "Stranger Things"? I wouldn't be surprised. The whole WTC complex has its roots in the International Trade Mart of New Orleans, a CIA front that surfaced in the JFK and MLK assassinations:
>(1) Oswald purchased his ticket to London - the first part of his trip to the Soviet Union - from an office in the Trade Mart >(2) Oswald handed out pro-Castro leaflets in front of the Trade Mart, and the Trade Mart's executives inexplicably called news cameras to document this tableaux - which later became the basis for describing Oswald as a "communist", rather than what he quite plainly was: a government agent, infiltrating subversive groups >(3) After Oswald returned to New Orleans, multiple witnesses described seeing him in the company of the Trade Mart's director, Clay Shaw - who denied ever meeting him. Several of these witnesses claimed to have overheard Shaw discussing plans for the assassination, with Oswald and other men
>Shaw, who was also said to have known Jack Ruby, was said to perform sadomasochistic rituals at his home. Following his arrest, his lavish residence was searched and police found a long black robe and hood along with whips, chains, and hooks affixed to the ceiling of one room, with what appeared to be faint impressions of bloody handprints. Shaw's maid told them that there was an incident - apparently covered up - where someone had been killed in the house. Shaw's address book was, curiously, filled with members of the European aristocracy - including a Princess Jacqueline de Chimay. The Chimay family was implicated in Belgium's pedophile ring, accused of organizing sick child-hunts on their vast estates
>In the wake of the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr., journalist Louis Lomax was tracing James Earl Ray's movements and discovered that he'd met with a New Orleans industrialist at the same International Trade Mart. Lomax died in a vehicle 'accident' soon afterward, the industrialist's name was never published
>After World War II, businessman Clay Shaw returned to New Orleans where he became a founder of the International Trade Mart (ITM). From 1947 to his retirement in 1965, Shaw ran the ITM as a managing director
>The ITM was chartered in 1945, first opened in 1948, and in 1968, merged with International House to form the World Trade Center New Orleans (WTCNO), a private, non-profit organization with a membership of 2,000 corporations and individuals dedicated to improving international trade with New Orleans en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Trade_Mart
>Clay LaVergne Shaw (March 17, 1913 – August 15, 1974) was an American businessman and military officer from New Orleans, Louisiana. Shaw is best known for being the only person brought to trial for involvement in the assassination of John F. Kennedy en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clay_Shaw
>The World Trade Center of New Orleans is the founding member of the World Trade Centers Association, a worldwide association of over 300 World Trade Centers in nearly 100 countries en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Trade_Center_New_Orleans
>It's astounding how there is such a clear line connecting two of the most defining events of deep politics in the 20th and 21st centuries. Quietly acknowledged, but never emphasized - probably because of where the trail leads
>Prof. Donald Gibson ("The Kennedy Assassination Cover-up", p. 172):
>The principal speaker for the 1948 opening of Shaw's Trade Mart was William McChesney Martin. Martin later became Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board and then a supervisor of the Rockefeller family's trust fund
>Damn, that’s interesting. The part about Shaw coincides with something else I’ve been researching. Thanks for the information
>No problem. I've attached Lomax's article about the New Orleans industrialist, since there's scant information online - I'd originally heard about Ray's connection to the Trade Mart via the pseudonymous William Torbitt's notoriously unreliable essay "Nomenclature of an Assassination Cabal", and had to go through newspaper archives to find it
>So this small, globalist-oriented CIA / Rockefeller front *is connected* to the assassinations of JFK and MLK, as well as 9/11. And almost no one knows it
>According to documents from the House Select Committee on Assassinations (pic related), there was an allegation that the "industrialist" was Cecil Shilstone, who owned a local chemical firm. Shilstone was a Major in the U.S. Army's Chemical Warfare Service, and a CIA memo dated Jan. 12, 1968 notes that Shilstone was a "[l]ifelong friend of two members of the DCS office [CIA's Domestic Contact Service] in New Orleans, but official contact ended in 1956." archives.gov/files/research/jfk/releases/104-10105-10188.pdf
>Curiously, this is the same year (1956) that Shaw's 'official' contact with the CIA's DCS office ended - as noted by the same memo, which outlines the Agency relationships of various figures who surfaced in Garrison's investigation. A 1992 memo from CIA's History Staff would posthumously describe Shaw as "a highly paid contract source." jfkfacts.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Shaw-as-informant.pdf
>This is most interesting, since Shilstone was a founding member of Truth and Consequences - a private group formed by New Orleans citizens to raise funds for D.A. Jim Garrison's investigation of the JFK assassination, which ultimately led to Clay Shaw's indictment. Shilstone isn't the only member of Truth and Consequences who was associated with CIA. The background of another co-founder, oilman Joseph Rault, raises similar questions - from "A Farewell to Justice" by Joan Mellen:
>Even Joseph Rault, who was helping to fund Jim Garrison's investigation, was a CIA asset, having been cleared to assist JMWAVE as president of a CIA proprietary with the cryptonym YCOUGH. Rault used his own petroleum business, Rault Petroleum Corporation, as a funding mechanism for YCOUGH. Other oil companies in which Rault had an interest were used as "back-stopping cover of JMWAVE operational vessels," bound for sabotage in Cuba. Rault was also enlisted in a CIA project with the cryptonym ECHO, and recommended other New Orleans businessmen to participate in CIA activities. JMWAVE contacted him several times a month books.google.ca/books?id=scug_gAfL-wC&pg=PP122
>It has been speculated - quite plausibly - that Truth and Consequences was an unsuccessful attempt to assert some type of control over the D.A.'s investigation. This may be why, as Garrison progressed, Truth and Consequences abruptly dissolved. According to Garrison, by June 1967 the group "disappeared completely ... all of a sudden one day came and they didn't meet anymore."

>To expand on this, the collapse alone isn't the issue - not the sole issue anyhow, although that said I remain highly skeptical of the competing official and semi-official explanations for why / how this occurred. It's the way it fell - how fast, how symmetrical, how isolated in terms of the damage zone - this is the type of thing that demolitions experts work for months to accomplish, carefully positioning charges in order to *ensure* a structure will fall like that. If it was as easy as fire and structural damage, they'd be able to save a lot of money
>You cannot find a single example of a steel building collapsing in the fashion that WTC7 did, but you can find buildings that suffered fires that were larger, burned longer, and caused more structural damage, yet remained standing. For example, the Windsor Tower in Madrid (pic related)
>So the superficially rational explanations that have been presented to you are essentially positing that something unprecedented took place. Something which never happened before or since, even under similar conditions
>What's more, the idea that the collapse was due to structural damage requires you to ignore a significant amount of evidence, e.g. the account of Barry Jennings - Deputy Director of the Emergency Services Department for the New York City Housing Authority (whose office was in Building 7) - who described an explosion inside the building *before* either WTC1 or WTC 2 had collapsed, and said he heard explosions throughout the building until they were rescued. How does damage to the buildings account for internal explosions?
>How does it account for videos of police, emergency services, etc. indicating WTC7 was going to come down, with one police officer heard on tape saying "the building is about to blow up"?
>How does it account for two major news networks reporting WTC7 had collapsed almost half an hour before it did? And is it pure coincidence that the building housed a secret CIA office?
>is it pure coincidence that the building housed a secret CIA office?
>Source?
>(AP, Nov. 5, 2001) A secret office operated by the CIA was destroyed in the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center, seriously disrupting intelligence operations
>The undercover station was in 7 World Trade Center, a smaller office tower that fell several hours after the collapse of the twin towers on Sept. 11, a U.S. government official said
>The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that immediately after the attack, a special CIA team scoured the rubble in search of secret documents and intelligence reports stored in the station, either on paper or in computers. It was not known whether the efforts were successful
>A CIA spokesman declined to comment on the existence of the office, which was first reported in Sunday's editions of The New York Times
>The New York station was behind the false front of another federal organization, which the Times did not identify. The station was a base of operations to spy on and recruit foreign diplomats stationed at the United Nations, while debriefing selected American business executives and others willing to talk to the CIA after returning from overseas
>...
>The New York station was believed to have been the largest and most important CIA domestic station outside the Washington area
>WTC7 also housed the U.S. Secret Service's largest field office (9th and 10th floors), along with the Securities & Exchange Commission (11th and 12th floors), New York's Office of Emergency Management (23rd floor), and the Department of Defense (25th floor). The CIA office appears to have shared the 25th floor with the DOD en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tenants_in_7_World_Trade_Center
>(National Law Journal, Sep. 17, 2001) "Additional details emerged Friday about the effect of the collapse of 7 World Trade Center on investigations being conducted by the New York offices of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, both of which were housed in the building
>The SEC has not quantified the number of active cases in which substantial files were destroyed. Reuters news service and the Los Angeles Times published reports estimating them at 3,000 to 4,000. They include the agency's major inquiry into the manner in which investment banks divvied up hot shares of initial public offerings during the high-tech boom 911research.wtc7.net/~nin11evi/911research/cache/wtc/analysis/wtc7/nyl_SECEEOCdelays.html
>The true conspiracy is that every single construction company in NY is run by the mafia in order to scam the state out of money. There is not a single structurally sound building in NYC
>Still doesn't explain how the collapse occurred, i.e. vertical, symmetrical, free-fall speed. You don't achieve the same result that demolitions teams spend months preparing by setting fires in a poorly-designed building
>As for the Mafia, it's interesting to note that companies involved in removing the building debris from Ground Zero were connected with organized crime - as was then-Mayor Rudy Giuliani's family (pic related): 911review.com/articles/ryan/demolition_access_p4.html
>Under the mayor's oversight, these companies removed as much evidence as possible before scientists could look at it, largely scrapped. Wonder why?
>In fact the World Trade Center in NY was merely a chapter of a CIA / MI6-connected WTC Association that has offices all over the world. Its origins are in the CIA-connected International Trade Mart of New Orleans, director of which was Clay Shaw - the only man ever formally charged with conspiracy to murder JFK. He was acquitted in less than an hour, following a systematic assault on the prosecutors by the federal government and national media, in which the prosecution's offices were bugged, their witnesses bribed, threatened, and in some cases murdered, and reams of evidence destroyed. Nevertheless, state's witness Perry Russo testified to attending a party at the residence of occultist David Ferrie in which Oswald and Shaw were present, and said the three of them discussed plans to assassinate JFK. Shaw denied he had ever met Oswald or Ferrie, yet scores of witnesses testified to seeing the men together on various occasions. It was an open secret that Shaw used the alias "Clay Bertrand", which appeared in the Warren Commission's files as a mysterious benefactor to young Lee Harvey Oswald
>Shaw was directly tied to a satanic-based clique in New Orleans (same as Ferrie). When investigators searched his luxurious residence at 1313 Dauphine St., they found hooks affixed to the ceiling with faint impressions of bloody handprints, whips with dried blood, and a long black robe, as well as an address book filled with European Royalty. There were rumors of debauched sex games and mysterious deaths in the house. Few are aware of the WTC connection
>So you have the World Trade Center Association directly linked to the crimes of the 20th and 21st centuries
>As for the satanist link:
>In childhood, Oswald's chronic truancy led to his being sent to Dr. Renatus Hartogs, child psychiatrist at the Youth House. Hartogs had appeared on an NBC-TV program on witchcraft, advocating black magic as a positive outlet for aggression in young men. Hartogs had been involved with MK-ULTRA, and formerly worked with Ewen Cameron
>Oswald joined the Civil Air Patrol in his teens. The captain of his squadron was David Ferrie, a CIA-connected pilot who boasted of flying secret missions for "military intelligence". Ferrie was also an avid occultist, serial pedophile (with 20+ victims), and hypnotist, and following his mysterious death in 1967 (not long before the Shaw trial) an extensive library on the subject of post-hypnotic suggestion was found in his apartment. A state's witness testified that he'd attended parties at Ferrie's home in which he had witnessed blood-drinking rituals
>The book "Hand of Death" by Max Call recounts the story of Henry Lee Lucas, a serial killer who told authorities he was a hit man for a politically-connected satanic cult. Lucas indicates he was told Lee Harvey Oswald had been a member of the cult, and there are reasons to believe this: (a) Lucas said the cult had a paramilitary training camp in the Florida Everglades - this is where CIA was operating paramilitary training camps for Cuban exiles, and former CIA agent Marita Lorenz testified under oath to seeing Oswald at one of these camps; (b) Ferrie, who trained Cubans for the Bay of Pigs Invasion, allegedly told a girlfriend of Oswald's that he was connected to satanic cults and displayed a ring with a demonic face - Lucas said Hand of Death members wore rings with demonic faces; (c) Lucas said the Hand of Death was based in Mexico, where Oswald is reported to have made a visit - still shrouded in mystery - in the fall of 1963
>Henry Lucas has been widely discounted as a fantasist, enabled by 'satanic panic' and unscrupulous law enforcement agencies. This was the narrative promoted by Netflix's disinformational series, "The Confession Killer" - starring Hugh Aynesworth of the Dallas Morning News, a CIA asset (youtube.com/watch?v=rTaz95ni22E) who was instrumental in discrediting Lucas' story and obtained his recantation cavdef.org/w/index.php?title=Serial_killers#Henry_Lee_Lucas_and_Ottis_Toole
>Lucas told others the Hand of Death cult was forcing him to recant, implying that Aynesworth was connected with it. This is not as outlandish as it might sound
>Among the principal figures in this assault was Hugh Aynesworth. Author Jim DiEugenio writes, "With the work of the Assassination Records Review Board, many more pages of documents have been released showing how tightly bound Aynesworth was with the intelligence community. It has been demonstrated that Aynesworth was - at the minimum - working with the Dallas Police, Shaw's defense team, and the FBI. He was also an informant to the White House, and had once applied for work with the CIA." (spartacus-educational.com/JFKaynesworth.htm) In one instance, Aynesworth is reported to have attempted to bribe state's witness John Manchester - a Clinton, LA police officer who would testify that he'd seen Shaw, Ferrie, and Oswald together at a voters' registration drive - offering him employment with CIA (!) in, of all places, Mexico. "I advise you to leave the area," Manchester replied, "Otherwise, I'll cut you a new asshole!"
>When Henry Lee Lucas accused Aynesworth of coercing him to recant, it's highly unlikely he was aware that the CIA-connected 'journalist' had been accused of precisely such behaviour in the past
>This was not the only time Lucas' account was corroborated by other information. From Texas Monthly, June 1989:
>"When lawmen finally began to sort things out, the ritual killings seemed almost predestined. A map drawn two years ago by confessed mass-killer Henry Lee Lucas had predicted with inexplicable accuracy that the bodies of victims of satanic rituals would be found about where [Mark] Kilroy and others were found." texasmonthly.com/news-politics/the-work-of-the-devil/ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Mark_Kilroy
>It's never been explained how else Lucas could have known that. Either it's an extraordinary coincidence, or he was telling the truth
>In fact, Lucas' accomplice in the officially-acknowledged killing spree - a man named Ottis Toole - confirmed his allegations about the Hand of Death cult, providing detailed descriptions of their rituals, and telling chronicler Sondra London that he was born into a family that had been involved with black witchcraft for generations. (sondralondon.com/tales/devil/index.htm) Toole also revealed, quite interestingly, that he'd visited the satanic-based Process Church of the Final Judgment in New Orleans!
>The Process Church has since been linked to the Manson and Son of Sam killings. Founded in London in 1963, they preached that God and the Devil were one and the same being. Following a sojourn to (you guessed it) Mexico, they arrived in the U.S. where they were incorporated in New Orleans with the assistance of attorney Tommy Baumler, who belonged to the same CIA-associated circle as Shaw, Ferrie, and Oswald, and later interviewed by the D.A.'s investigators in connection with the Kennedy plot. Small world, isn't it?
archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/195970625/ >Lee Harvey Oswald was close friends with oil geologist George de Mohrenschildt, an asset of the CIA and U.S. Army Intelligence
>De Mohrenschildt was:
>(a) close friends with the family of Jackie Kennedy (who knew him in childhood as "Uncle George")
>(b) close friends with George H.W Bush (who was his business partner / nephew's roommate at Andover)
>(c) friends with Allen Dulles, CIA director (1953-1961) and chief architect of Paperclip, Gladio, Mockingbird, MKULTRA, and the first "color revolutions"
>(d) friends with R. Gordon Wasson, credited with spreading 'magic mushrooms' to the U.S. and as one of the chief architects of the psychedelic revolution
>(e) friends with Dallas Mayor Earle Cabell (whose brother was Deputy Director of the CIA from 1956-1961)
>(f) friends with oil barons Clint Murchison, H.L. Hunt, and Sid Richardson, all of whom hated Pres. Kennedy with a passion
>(g) friends with D. Harold Byrd, a businessman with oil and defense contracts who owned the Texas School Book Depository and
>(f) nephew of Ferdinand von Mohrenschildt, a key advisor to Woodrow Wilson involved in laying the groundwork for WWI
>(g) husband of Jeanne LeGon, who worked alongside Abraham Zapruder (who filmed the assassination) and Olga Fehmer at Nardis, a French clothing company in Dallas. Fehmer's daughter was Lyndon Johnson's secretary and was with him on board Air Force One when he was sworn in. She later became one of the first women to become a senior CIA officer
>(a) Robert Kennedy was driven to the Ambassador Hotel by John Frankenheimer, director of The Manchurian Candidate (1962). Kennedy had been attending a dinner party at Frankenheimer's home. Other guests included Roman Polanski and Sharon Tate. Kennedy was Nixon's main obstacle in the 1968 presidential election
>(b) According to a confidential INS report, Sirhan attended occult-themed parties at Polanski's home
>(c) Soon after the assassination, an "itinerant preacher" identified as "Rev. Jerry Owen" contacted the LAPD and volunteered that he had picked Sirhan and two companions up on the eve of the assassination. Investigator William Turner (a former FBI agent) determined that the two had a "pre-existing custodial relationship" of some type, which "Rev. Owen" had not admitted
>(d) One of the "reverend's" followers was Aiken Bremer, sister of Arthur Bremer, who shot Alabama Gov. George Wallace in Maryland. Gov. Wallace was Nixon's primary obstacle in the 1972 primaries
>(e) Arthur Bremer's brother, Thomas, worked alongside Sirhan at the horse stables
>(f) Richard Nixon was in Dallas on the morning of Nov. 22, 1963, attending a board meeting at Pepsico. George H.W Bush was in Dallas on Nov. 21
>(a) 'Serial killers' Bobby Joe Long and Henry Lee Lucas were cousins
>This fact received virtually no media coverage
>(b) John Wayne Gacy is credited with killing 33 young men in Chicago between 1972-1978, including several employees of his construction firm. Others employed at his firm spent a considerable amount of time in his home, some even boarding with him. Officially, none were aware that dozens of corpses lay beneath a layer of limestone in his basement. Many believe some of them were involved in the planning and commission of the murders
>(c) One of Gacy's young employees, Robin Gecht, later established his own construction firm with several young men. Gecht and his employees, now known as "the Ripper Crew," are credited with the murder of 17 women in Chicago between 1981-82. There were strong indications that some of the killings were ritual in nature
>(d) Gecht's son and two others were charged in Mar. 1999 with the execution-style murder of another man in Chicago, allegedly gang-related
>(e) Also in Mar. 1999, Ernest Smith, the brother of one of Jeffrey Dahmer's victims, (murdered in 1990) was found ritualistically murdered in his apartment. His body was bound, mutilated, and pornographic materials were stuffed into his shoes. Smith had served in the U.S. military and seen combat in the Gulf. The crime remains unsolved
>(f) Kenneth Bianchi and Angelo Buono (known as "the Hillside Stranglers") operated an auto upholstery in L.A. Douglas Clark (of the "Sunset Strip Killers") operated an auto upholstery roughly a mile away
>(g) Both later claimed their upholsteries were fronts for teenage prostitution rings. Buono had visited Clark's upholstery at least once "to buy supplies."
>(h) Clark and Bundy later initiated a relationship (in prison) with Veronica Lee Compton - "the Copycat Strangler" - a playwright, actress, and the daughter of an L.A.-area editorial cartoonist, who was formerly an intimate of Bianchi and Buono
>Holy shit. I just realized Roman Polanski and thus Charlie Manson are connected to Robert Kennedy's murder
>The tie that binds is a group called the Process Church for the Final Judgment, often referred to simply as "the Process."
>Charles Manson was a part of this group. He followed them, drew from their philosophy and even wrote for one of their magazines - shock publications with titles like "Love," "Fear," "Sex," and "Death," and filled with satanic, fascist, and gore imagery
>This was covered in detail in the first edfition of "The Family" by Ed Sanders, which was removed from the shelves in the U.S. after the Process sued Sanders for implicating them in the Tate and LaBianca murders. Sanders described them (accurately in my opinion) as "hooded snuffoids."
>It was founded in London by Robert and Mary Ann Moore, former Scientologists. They moved their group to the U.S. where it was incorporated in New Orleans by lawyer Tommy Baumler
>Baumler (in another ridiculous "coincidence") was a longtime associate and employee of Guy Banister, the 'detective agency' where Lee Oswald was seen making repeated visits in the summer of 1963. There are numerous witnesses placing him there, include Banister's secretary and several employees
>It's widely believed Banister's office was a front for the FBI, CIA and / or Navy Intelligence, and that his relationship with Oswald was supervisory in nature
>The Process appears to be tied to the murders attributed to "the Son of Sam" and possibly to the "Zodiac" as well
>This argument was made by Maury Terry, whose book "The Ultimate Evil" (600+ pages) ties the satanic-based cult to numerous brutal murders from coast to coast
>It's controversial. Many people have attempted to discredit it
>What none of those individuals will tell you is that Terry's work was considered credible enough that it was the basis for the Queens District Attorney's Office later reopening the "Son of Sam" investigation
