According to waynemadsenreoportdotcom, Fath al-Islam was reportedly started with funding and other support from the CIA and Lebanese Phalangist forces to act as a counterweight to Hezbollah. In reality, Fath al-Islam is designed to give the Bush administration, NATO, and the Fouad Siniora government a pretext for granting the U.S. military and NATO access to northern Lebanon and the Kleiaat airbase. Fath al-Islam’s activities are already being blamed on “Al Qaeda” units operating in the north of the country.

A news report on the BBC Website (16/5/07) tells us
The Islamic State of Iraq, an umbrella group of militants led by al-Qaeda, has said it is holding the soldiers. 4
But who says its led by al-Queda? The sources for the allegation are the US military, who is not well known for telling the truth. Why doesnt the BBC insert the word allegedly led by al-Queda? As to the claim by The Islamic State of Iraq, well who are they? Websites claiming this an that are a dime a dozen, any fool can set one up and claim whatever they want to.
As Ive pointed out before, no investigation ever takes place of these Websites, yet tracking down the owners is as simple as doing a Whois on the domain/IP address of the al-Queda Website.
Lacking any justification either for the invasion or the continued occupation, a massive propaganda campaign is being waged by the forces of darkness which utilises the vast resources at the disposal of the state to turn day into night if need be and without a single voice of opposition to this disinformation campaign being given airtime.
The real enemy is the public, who, if apprised of the vast confidence trick being played on them by the champions of democracy, would demand to know what the hell is going on! And as the situation moves from grim to disastrous for the occupation, so the al-Queda/Iran card gets played with ever-greater frequency.
The plain fact is that every imperial adventure follows an identical path of disinformation with the victims of the aggression presented as mere onlookers whilst an international conspiracy by the enemies of democracy conveniently exploits the situation.
Interestingly, whilst conspiracies by the imperium are dismissed with tedious regularity as fantasies, no such incredulity is found when it comes to al-Queda, yet the sheer volume of bullshit surrounding the existence of Osamas international network of terrorists reveals not a shred of evidence that it even exists let alone has the ability to organise global plots that require the resources of a nation state to carry out.
