Stir, Brewing Jenni, part IV: Oroborous

To review the main points of Sibel Edmonds claims: in the late '90s and early naughts a network of moles had been installed within nuclear research facilities by liaisons in the U.S. State Dept. and Pentagon on behalf of Turkish, Israeli and other intelligence organizations. This "foreign exchange program" traded in military technology secrets, one purchaser of which was the notorious Pakistani ISI (notorious for its ties to the Taliban and al Qaeda).

One of the infiltrated research facilities mentioned by Edmonds was Los Alamos:

The Turks and Israelis had planted “moles” in military and academic institutions which handled nuclear technology. Edmonds says there were several transactions of nuclear material every month, with the Pakistanis being among the eventual buyers. “The network appeared to be obtaining information from every nuclear agency in the United States,” she said.

They were helped, she says, by the high-ranking State Department official who provided some of their moles – mainly PhD students – with security clearance to work in sensitive nuclear research facilities. These included the Los Alamos nuclear laboratory in New Mexico, which is responsible for the security of the US nuclear deterrent.

...among other things, we might add: Directed Energy Weapons (DEW) programs, possibly having grown in part out of visits of a Los Alamos team (under John B. Alexander) to John Hutchison's lab in the 1980s.

In short, then, we have a clandestine network whose nodes extend from Los Alamos to Washington to the Middle East to Pakistan and potentially over the mountain to al Qaeda.

Given some of the hypothesized weapons systems said to be necessary to have done the job on the World Trade Center (given the extraordinary facts of its destruction), such as DEW and "micro-nukes" - systems, to remind, developed in places like Los Alamos - can we accept the possibility that perhaps the "Big Wedding" (the al Qaeda code name for the 9/11 attacks) utilized far more than 19 hijackers with box cutters? Could bin Laden have gotten his hands on these advanced weapons with the aid of Pakistani intelligence during General Pervez Musharraf's dictatorship?

Well, that is a bit of a stretch.

But, now as Musharraf's regime ends, it is curious to note that the state where it is said he would like to enjoy his exile is none other than New Mexico, home of Los Alamos.

Chickens come on home to roost...
