Treasure Hunter Fears Assassination Over Search For Bin Laden’s Body

Shipwreck expert doesn’t believe official narrative

Paul Joseph Watson Infowars.com Wednesday, May 2, 2012

A California treasure hunter who believes he has located the spot where the U.S. Navy allegedly dumped the body of Osama Bin Laden says he wants to try and discover the corpse and subject it to DNA testing because he doesn’t believe the Obama administration’s official story about the death of the Al-Qaeda leader.

Fearing the U.S. government could target him for assassination if he tries to recover the cadaver, shipwreck expert Bill Warren told Spanish newspaper El Mundo that he has pinpointed the site where Bin Laden’s body was ejected by using recently released US Navy photos.

“His thought is that, since the Navy weighted down the bag, the body hasn’t moved from where it was dropped. He is now trying to rent Russian deep diving equipment to locate his payload, and to conduct DNA tests once he finds him,” reports Gizmodo.

Warren believes that once he begins the mission in early June he could locate the body in under a week, and that the search would take a maximum of three months. Warren needs $200,000 dollars to fund the operation, but “his only fear is that the US Government would kill him or sink his boat.”

The Gizmodo headline accompanying the story, This Treasure Hunter Says He Has Located Bin Laden’s Body, is somewhat misleading given that Warren’s primary motivation for finding the corpse is his belief that the Obama administration lied about the circumstances surrounding Bin Laden’s death and that whatever the Navy dumped overboard may not be Osama’s body at all.

Deep within the article we learn Warren’s true purpose in embarking on the expensive task of recovering the cadaver for DNA testing.

“Warren says he is doing this because he doesn’t “believe the Obama administration” and he wants to have proof that it is really his body.”

It sounds like Warren has been busy reading Infowars.com or listening to the Alex Jones Show.

The alleged body of Bin Laden was hastily dumped in the sea to prevent any proper procedure of identification. The White House claimed this was in accordance with normal Islamic burial rituals, however numerous Muslim scholars all over the globe disputed this claim, pointing out that Muslims can only be buried at sea if they die at sea. While the White House claimed that Bin Laden’s death was proven by DNA and facial recognition evidence, such proof was never released for public scrutiny and the Obama administration refused to release photos of Bin Laden’s dead body, suggesting a cover-up.

As we documented at the time of the dubious Bin Laden killing, which Barack Obama has hastily exploited for election propaganda as if he personally pulled the trigger, a plethora of evidence suggests that the whole event was stage-managed. The official narrative of the Bin Laden raid collapsed completely within days of its announcement.

Before the alleged assassination, every intelligence analyst, geopolitical commentator or head of state worth their salt was on record as stating that Osama Bin Laden was already dead, and that he probably died many years ago, from veteran CIA officer Robert Baer, to former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto, to former FBI head of counterterrorism Dale Watson

Pentagon has no records of Osama bin Laden’s death

Obama touts the Navy SEALS’ raid and killing of Osama bin Laden in his hideaway compound in Abbotabad, Pakistan, as one of, if not the greatest, achievements of his administration. Reportedly, the administration even disclosed details of the raid to Hollywood for an upcoming movie, Zero Dark Thirty, directed by Kathryn Bigelow.

The movie is scheduled to be released — SURPRISE! — on October 12, 2012, within a month of the presidential election.

Joseph Straw reports for the N.Y. Daily News, Aug. 11, 2011, that the CIA defended its collaboration with the maker of Zero Dark Thirty. CIA spokesman Preston Golson said that such collaboration with filmmakers has precedent and is part of the CIA’s “public outreach.” Despite the CIA’s insistence, Congressman Peter King (R-Long Island), chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, has demanded that the Pentagon and CIA inspectors general investigate whether the agencies breached policy in this case, in particular whether the filmmakers saw classified material or got access to personnel working under cover.

Given that, it is  curious, to say the least, that, in response to a Freedom of Information Act request made by the Associated Press, the Pentagon says it has no records — not one photo, not one video, not even an e-mail — of bin Laden’s death.

Richard Lardner reports for the Minneapolis Star Tribune, March 15, 2012:

Government officials have openly discussed details of the mission [to kill Osama bin Laden] in speeches, interviews and television appearances, but the administration won’t disclose records that would confirm their narrative of that fateful night. The Associated Press asked for files about the raid in more than 20 separate [FOIA] requests, mostly submitted the day after bin Laden’s death.

The Pentagon told the AP this month it could not locate any photographs or video taken during the raid or showing bin Laden’s body. It also said it could not find any images of bin Laden’s body on the Navy aircraft carrier where the al-Qaida leader’s body was taken.

The Pentagon said it could not find any death certificate, autopsy report or results of DNA identification tests for bin Laden, or any pre-raid materials discussing how the government planned to dispose of bin Laden’s body if he were killed.

It said it searched files at the Pentagon, U.S. Special Operations Command in Tampa, Fla., and the Navy command in San Diego that controls the USS Carl Vinson, the aircraft carrier used in the mission.

The Defense Department told the AP in late February it could not find any emails about the bin Laden mission or his “Geronimo” code name that were sent or received in the year before the raid by William McRaven, the three-star admiral at the Joint Special Operations Command who organized and oversaw the mission. It also could not find any emails from other senior officers who would have been involved in the mission’s planning.

Note: WantToKnow team member Prof. David Ray Griffin, in his book Osama bin Laden: Dead or Alive?, lays out the extensive evidence that bin laden died in December 2001, and that since that time Pentagon psyops had been keeping him “alive” with fake videos and audiotapes to maintain a crucial pretext for the ever-expanding “war on terror.” Could it be that the Pentagon will produce no records of its purported “death raid” because in fact it will reveal major manipulations involving bin Laden’s death?

On August 6, 2011, three months after the supposed killing of bin Laden, 22 members of the exact same Navy SEALS Team 6 who had conducted the Abbotabad raid all died in a helicopter crash in Afghanistan.

Dead men don’t tell tales.

Al Qaeda, Al Qaeda, Al Qaeda…. An Incessant and Repetitive Public Discourse Part I

by Prof. Michel Chossudovsky, Global Research:

There is something disturbing in the nature of post 9/11 public discourse. Incessantly, on a daily basis, Al Qaeda is mentioned by government officials, members of the US Congress, Wall Street analysts, etc. Numerous events of a significant political, social or strategic nature –including the US presidential elections campaign– are categorized by referring to Al Qaeda, the alleged architect of the September 11 2001 attacks.

What is striking is the extent of media coverage of “Al Qaeda related events”, not to mention the mountains of op eds and authoritative “analysis” pertaining to “terror events” in different part of the World.

Routine mention of Al Qaeda fanatics, jihadists, etc. has become –from a news standpoint– trendy and fashionable. A Worldwide ritual of authoritative media reporting has unfolded. At the time of writing (March 24, 2012), “Al Qaeda events” had 183 million entries on Google and 18,200 news entries.

Propaganda Film: Bill Clinton Praises Obama’s Unsubstantiated Osama Kill

Team Obama has produced a slick propaganda video that will be released on March 15. On Monday, Obama for America released preview footage from The Road We’ve Traveled, election season propaganda about Obama’s presidency. The video features Bill Clinton commending Obama’s supposed decision to take out Osama bin Laden, who died in December of 2001.

 

“He took the harder, and the more honorable path. When I saw what had happened, I thought to myself, ‘I hope that’s the call I would’ve made,’” says the consummate actor Clinton. The clip also features vice president Joe Biden fancifully recounting the day Obama allegedly gave the order to kill Osama in Pakistan.

“As he walked out the room, it dawned on me: He’s all alone,” Biden says. “This is his decision.”

In fact, the government did not bother to provide evidence that Osama bin Laden lived in Pakistan or that he was killed on May 2, 2011, by U.S. special forces. The U.S. claimed Osama was buried at sea in accordance with Muslim burial practices and therefore argue it was unable to produce evidence.

A Wikileaks dump of Stratfor emails later claimed that Osama was not buried at sea. Stratfor’s vice president for intelligence Fred Burton urged the U.S. government to show photos of Osama Bin Laden’s corpse in order to silence “lunatics like Alex Jones and Glenn Beck” who had questioned the government’s official narrative.

Despite a complete lack of evidence, the government and the corporate media now state as an undisputed fact Obama made the “tough decision” to kill Osama.

Evidence from numerous sources reveal Osama bin Laden died from natural causes in December, 2001, shortly after the invasion of Afghanistan.

The mini-documentary with “requisite evocative music and still footage” pushing the election season Osama takeout myth is directed by Davis Guggenheim – who also directed Al Gore’s discredited An Inconvenient Truth – and is narrated by Tom Hanks, who uploaded a video to MySpace in 2008 voicing his support for Obama.

Hacked Stratfor Emails: Osama’s Body Not Dumped at Sea

According to “shadow CIA” Stratfor email hacked by Anonymous and released by Wikileaks, Osama bin Laden was not dumped at sea after he was supposedly killed at his hideout in Pakistan. Instead, his body was shipped via a CIA plane to a mortuary located at a military medical institute in Dover, Delaware.

Osama’s body was allegedly delivered following Obama’s boasting about the dubious raid. “Reportedly, we took the body with us. Thank goodness,” said Stratfor CEO George Friedman in an email dated May 2, 2011.

“Than [sic] onward to the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology in Bethesda,” replied Stratfor vice president for intelligence, Fred Burton, who also said he “doubts [Osama] was dumped at sea” and adds the body “is a crime scene and I don’t see the FBI nor DOJ letting that happen.” Before working at Stratfor, Burton was a special agent with the State Department’s Diplomatic Security Service.

 

Despite concerns about preserving the “crime scene,” Pakistani authorities demolished the alleged hideout in late February. They never allowed journalists inside the Abbottabad building, and starting from a few days after the purported raid stopped them from even getting close to it, according to a February 27 Associated Press report.

A number of people, including former Pakistani dictator Pervez Musharraf, have claimed that Osama bin Laden died in late 2001 at Tora Bora in Afghanistan. Afghan President Hamid Karzai also said he thought Bin Laden was dead, as did Dale Watson, the FBI’s counterterrorism boss.

It was reported in December of 2001 that Osama bin Laden “died a peaceful death due to an untreated lung complication” and “was laid to rest honorably in his last abode and his grave was made as per his Wahabi belief,” Fox News reported, citing the Pakistan Observer.

In 2011, Dr. Steve R. Pieczenik, a man who held numerous different influential positions under three different presidents and worked with the Defense Department, told The Alex Jones Show that Osama Bin Laden died in 2001.

Pieczenik fist made the claim in 2002. “I found out through my sources that he had had kidney disease,” he told Alex Jones on April 24, 2002, several months after it was reported that Osama had died. “ And as a physician, I knew that he had to have two dialysis machines and he was dying. And you could see those in those films, those made-up photos that they were sending us out of nowhere. I mean, suddenly, we would see a video of bin Laden today and then out of nowhere, they said oh it was sent to us anonymously, meaning that someone in the government, our government, was trying to keep up the morale on our side and say oh we still have to chase this guy when, in fact, he’s been dead for months.”
