“Ever since 9/11, British and American officials have screamed terrorism over and over and over every time they get caught doing bad things they shouldn’t do………What we revealed is that the spying system is largely devoted not to terrorists but is directed at innocent people around the world.”-Glenn Greenwald, journalist who revealed NSA scandal
According to the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism, the number of terrorist attacks around the World jumped 69% from 2011 to 2012.
The National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism (aka START) is actually a U.S. Department of Homeland Security operation run through the University of Maryland. But that should not stop you from realizing that the skyrocketing number of terrorist attacks coincide with the U.S. led War on Terror.
Interestingly START says al Qaeda affiliated groups are still the number one threat, despite repeated claims by both Bush Jr and Obama regimes that al Qaeda is on the decline.
George W. Bush actually said al Qaeda was no longer a threat: “…we’ve arrested or otherwise dealt with many key commanders of al Qaeda……Let’s put it this way — they are no longer a problem to the United States and our friends and allies.”-3rd State of the Union speech, January 2003
In November 2012, it was documented that the Obama regime stated at least 32 times that al Qaeda was defeated: “…al Qaeda has been decimated…”-Barack Obama, 01 November 2012
So is Homeland Security’s START lying?
START warns that 2013 will break 2012’s record for al Qaeda led terrorist attacks.
“We are convinced that a big chunk of this is real change in the world. We’ve seen a fairly steep upward trajectory in the total of terrorist attacks and fatalities worldwide.”-Gary LaFree, START
“There’s just a lot of killing going on along sectarian and religious lines.”-Daniel Benjamin, counter-terrorism analyst
Yeah, who’s really to blame for that?
“Our ideals and principles, as well as our national security……..That’s what makes America different. That’s what makes us exceptional.”-Barack Obama, 10 September 2013
