False flag operation in einer asymmetrischen militärischen Operation in Mumbai (Bombay)

Die Angriffe in Mumbai: Ringen um Indien und Pakistan

Autor: Daniel Neun, Donnerstag, 27. November 2008, 18:55


Wie die Unabhängige Nachrichtenagentur “Net News Global” (NNG) berichtet, handelt es sich bei den seit knapp 24 Stunden andauernden asymmetrischen militärischen Operationen in Mumbai (Bombay) offenbar um ein Beispiel des “Tiefen Staates”, vergleichbar mit der Ergenekon-Verschwörung gegen den Staat Türkei.

Nach den Net News Global vorliegenden Informationen handelt es sich bei den Angriffen in der indischen Küstenstadt um einen Machtkampf innerhalb des indischen Staates selbst. Demzufolge versucht eine Verschwörung aus Teilen des Sicherheitsapparates, speziell der indischen Marine, der Bundesregierung unter Ministerpräsident Manmohan Singh, sowie Nationalisten und fanatischen Hindu-Gruppen durch blutige False-Flag-Attentate die Bevölkerung zu Massakern unter sich selbst anregen, innere Spannungen zu erzeugen und somit gleichermassen die äussere Kriegführung gegen Pakistan und in der Golfregion politisch zu ermöglichen.

Als Anzeichen dafür werden durch Net News Global folgende Hinweise in öffentlich zugänglichen Informationsquellen aufgeführt:
- in den ersten Minuten der Angriffe wurden drei leitende Polizeispezialisten gezielt ermordet, der Chef der Anti-Terror-Einheit Hemant Karkare, der Polizeichef Ost-Mumbais Ashok Kamte und der bekannte Poizeipsychologe und Verhandlungsspezialist Vijay Salaskar.
Ashok Kamte wurde ausserhalb eines U-Bahn-Zugangs erschossen, der Chef der Anti-Terror-Einheit Hemant Karkare innerhalb des Taj-Hotels mit drei Schüssen in die Brust getötet.
Karkare ermittelte im Fall des Malegaon Attentates auf einem muslimischen Friedhof am 8.September 2006, welches Muslimen zugeordnet worden war. 37 Muslime waren ermordet worden.

Neueste Untersuchungen der Anti-Terror-Polizei (ATS) ergeben, dass dieses Attentat durch eine Reihe hindu-nationalistischer Gruppen, darunter die RSS (Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh), die internationale Hindu-Nationalistan Organisation VHP (Vishva Hindu Parishad) sowie deren Jugendorganisation Bajrang Dal verübt worden.

Zwei Mitglieder der RSS hatten sich bereits im April 2006 in der indischen Stadt Nanded beim Bau von Bomben in die Luft gesprengt. Eine eingehende Untersuchung des Vorfalls durch die indischen Behörden gab es nicht.
Nach Einschätzungen in der Presse hätte es das Attentat in Malegaon wahrscheinlich nie gegeben, wenn schon damals solche Ermittlungen erfolgt wären.

Im Zuge des einen Tags vor dem Einmarsch Israels in Libanon am 12.Juli 2006 erfolgten Massakers in Mumbai (damals waren Bomben im Abstand von 11 Minuten in mehreren Nahverkehrszügen explodiert, sowie das gesamte Handynetz der Stadt lahmgelegt worden) äusserte einen Tag später während einer Kabinettssitzung der Bundesregierung Minderheitenminister A. R. Antulay, dass die “mysteriöse” Explosion in Nanded im April von Hindus verursacht wurde, welche sich als Muslime ausgegeben hatten. Auch Minister Arjun Singh hatte an jenem Tag daraufhin gewiesen, dass es Routine für Hindu-Nationalisten sei Attentate selbst zu verüben und dann Muslime unterzuschieben. Als Beispiel führte Singh ein angebliches Attentat auf das RSS Hauptquartier in Nagpur, welches nach Auskunft eines ihm bekannten Richters die RSS selbst verübt habe.
Daraufhin verordnete der Premierminister der Bundesregierung Indiens, Manmohan Singh, Schweigen über derartige “entzweienden Themen”.

- es wurde während der militärisch straff durchorganisierten Operation am gestrigen Abend in Mumbai aus Polizeifahrzeugen in die Menge geschossen. Dies ist auf CNN-Aufnahmen dokumentiert, die allerdings nirgends in der Berichterstattung der deutschen Fernsehnachrichten auftauchten. Erste Presseberichte beinhalteten diese Meldungen noch, wurden dann eilig verändert und manipuliert. In einer Pressedokumentation taucht eine diesbezügliche Meldung noch auf, als “Terroristen hijackten ein Polizeiuto und schossen dann in die Menge”. Auch in einer oben bereits erwähnten Meldung heisst es, 2 “Terroristen” hätten zuerst aus einem Polizei Fahrzeug Marke “Bolero” geschossen, seien dann auf einen Skoda umgestiegen und in diesem dann erschossen worden.

- in New Yorker gab Rabbi Zalman Shmotkin, Sprecher der von den Angriffen in Mumbai betroffenen orthodoxen jüdischen Gemeinde, zu Protokoll, dass die Bewaffneten welche das Chabad Haus in Mumbai besetzt hatten, in einem Polizeifahrzeug vorgefahren waren, mit dem sie Zugang zum Gelände des Hauses erhalten hatten.

- Marinekommandos (MARCOS) waren die ersten, welche laut Medienberichten im Taj Hotel ankamen (in welchem der Chef der Anti-Terror-Einheit Hemant Karkare ermordet wurde). Im Laufe der Kämpfe wurden sie evakuiert, nachher hiess es durch den Vizeadmiral Jagjit Singh Bedi vom Westlichen Navy Kommando:

“Diese Terroristen sind hochtrainiert, schwerbewáffnet und haben möglicherweise eine detaillierte Aufklärung dieser Locations betrieben”.

Auf CNN wurden Fotos von drei der Attentäter in Mumbai veröffentlicht, unter dem Hinweis, diese “zeigen möglicherweise Undercover-Polizisten” (”may show undercover police”).
Einer der mutmasslichen Attentäter war erkennbar in eine Militäruniform gekleidet, ein anderer hatte Tarnfarbe nach Art von Marinesoldaten im Gesicht auftragen.

DIE ÜBLICHEN VERDÄCHTIGEN
Die nun in Massenmedien, Konzernpresse und Staatsfernsehen innerhalb des NATO-Raumes ins Spiel gebrachte übliche Al Kaida Story, eine Verwicklung Pakistans oder eine schuldhafte Beteiligung muslimischer Gruppen entbehrt jeder Grundlage und ist verantwortungslose, bellizistische Spekulation und ein Angriff auf das friedliche Zusammenleben der Völker.
Erst vor zwei Tagen wurde  der einst mächtige Militärgeheimdienst ISI durch die Regierung Pakistans entmachtet, seine politische Abteilung aufgelöst. Auch wurde durch Islamabad die Militärpolitik des atomaren Erstschlags endgültig aufgegeben. Gestern war der pakistanische Aussenminister Shah Mehmood Qureshi zu Gesprächen mit der indischen Bundesregierung in Neu Dehli, zwecks einer friedlichen zukünftigen Kooperation der beiden Staaten.

“Ich will friedliche Beziehungen mit Indien. Die Region hat gelitten, die Menschen haben gelitten. Wir müssen den Menschen Südasiens Hoffnung geben,”

so Qureshi in einer gemeinsamen Pressekonferenz mit seinem indischen Kollegen Pranab Mukherjee.
Diese voraussehbare friedliche Entwicklung passt Einigen wohl nicht in ihre Interessen. Auch in Indien nicht.

KUHNER: Croatia in chaos

 

COMMENTARY:

Croatia’s efforts to join the European Union are on the verge of being derailed.

A recent car bombing in Croatia’s capital, Zagreb, killed well-known journalist Ivo Pukanic. Authorities said the assassination was a “mafia-style” hit job - one of several executions of prominent figures. The assassinations, public physical beatings of other notable investigative journalists and business executives have outraged the Croatian public, and undermined the credibility of Prime Minister Ivo Sanader and his Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ) government.

Mr. Pukanic earned a reputation for investigating the murky links in Croatian society between criminals, politicians and businessmen. His murder has crystallized the electorate’s disgust with Zagreb’s political establishment.

European Union officials say the recent growth of organized crime threatens to delay - and maybe even scuttle - Croatia’s membership aspirations. In response, Mr. Sanader vowed “I shall not allow Croatia to become another Beirut.” His government is attempting to restore law and order.

Yet Mr. Sanader is not really interested in combating organized crime and high-level corruption: For the past five years, the HDZ elite has been plundering public assets and looting state-owned companies. Most senior government ministers sit on supervisory boards of state-owned industries engaged in shady privatization deals or expensive construction projects in which public funds are siphoned off.

Several Croatian media outlets report that Mr. Sanader has enriched himself to the tune of several million dollars. He flaunts his elaborate - and expensive - personal collection of watches. Mr. Sanader and his cronies are engaged in massive theft, thereby depleting the country’s limited financial resources. According to the Adriatic Institute (AI), Croatia’s finest independent think tank, government corruption costs the Croatian taxpayer over $1 billion per year - a staggering amount for a country with a gross domestic product of $23 billion.

Mr. Sanader has staked his political career on trying to convince Brussels that Croatia is ready to become the European Union’s 28th member-state by 2011. To achieve this goal, he has been intimidating and bullying opponents, and repeatedly lying to Washington and Brussels about his commitment to reform.

The Europeans are finally catching on. “Corruption still remains widespread,” said the recent EU progress report. “The administrative capacity of state bodies for fighting corruption continues to be insufficient.” The report adds: “A culture of political accountability is lacking. Further efforts are required in tackling high-level corruption.”

Economic and judicial reforms have stalled. Croatia has the highest tax burden in the region. Its crushing national debt is over 80 percent of GDP. The economy is anemic (especially apart from tourism). Inefficient state-owned companies, especially in the shipyard and steel industries, continue to receive massive subsidies - in other words, the government continues to reward failure. The judicial system is rife with political meddling. Over 1.4 million property cases remain backlogged.

“Real reform requires the creation of an independent judiciary, the entrenchment of property rights, sweeping tax cuts and slashing wasteful public expenditures,” says AI’s president Natasha Srdoc. “The basic legal and institutional framework must be erected so that the rule of law and a vibrant market economy can flourish.”

In their 2008 Index of Economic Freedom, the Heritage Foundation and the Wall Street Journal rank Croatia at 113 out of 157 countries; it placed a dismal 37 out of the 41 nations in Europe.

Mr. Sanader also shamelessly uses the Croatian media to smear his critics. For example, after I wrote a column last year criticizing his dismal governing record, he was quoted in news outlets saying I was a “friend” of radical right-wing politician Ivica Pasalic - hoping to tar me with the brush of being associated with neo-fascist, nationalist types. This lie was then compounded by an obvious hit piece in HINA, Croatia’s main news agency, which also falsely claimed that I had ties with Mr. Pasalic and was “one of the few U.S. journalists” to support Croatia’s late autocratic president, Franjo Tudjman.

These statements would be comical if the situation in Croatia were not so dire. In articles over the years I have repeatedly excoriated Mr. Pasalic for his xenophobic nationalism and massive corruption. How this makes me a “friend” is possible only in Mr. Sanader’s puerile imagination. Also, during the 1990s I consistently wrote against Tudjman’s regime, criticizing its authoritarianism, economic cronyism and anti-Semitism.

What I did support was Croatia’s secession from Serb-dominated Yugoslavia - a major distinction one would think even the pro-HDZ hacks at HINA could grasp. After decades of communist oppression, Croatians earned the right to national sovereignty. Like the Baltic Republics, Croatia’s independence represented a major victory for the forces of self-determination. Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia are well on their way to building modern European states. Croatia, however, remains mired in a kleptocracy that is eating away at its democracy and prosperity.

Mart Laar, the former prime minister of Estonia, put it best: “The first step in fighting corruption is that you are not corrupt yourself.” Since Mr. Sanader is part of the problem, his “anti-crime,” “anti-corruption” campaign is doomed to fail - and Croatians will continue to pay the price.

UN Security Council approves Ban’s six-point plan

UN Security Council approves Ban’s six-point plan

The UN secretary-general’s blueprint for EULEX’s deployment has won unanimous backing from Security Council members. Pristina has voiced serious reservations but says it will co-operate with the international community.

The UN Security Council gave its backing Wednesday (November 26th) for a plan to reconfigure UNMIK and deploy a European police and justice mission in Kosovo. Members unanimously approved UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon’s six-point plan authorising the EULEX mission to deploy across the entire territory of Kosovo.

Kosovo leaders have opposed Ban’s plan, on the grounds that it would dilute the authority of Kosovo institutions. Foreign Minister Skender Hyseni repeated those objections Tuesday, telling the Security Council that his country is ready to co-operate but does not want its sovereignty called into question.

“Kosovo is not against the international community and we are interested in co-operating closely with them. But we don’t recognise the plans which threaten our sovereignty,” he said. He warned that the six-point plan would create two parallel chains of authority, hampering Pristina’s efforts to bring the whole country under its governance.

Serbia, which initially opposed EULEX’s deployment, has agreed to an amended version of Ban’s proposal. Under it, deployment remains separate from the Ahtisaari plan for supervised independence, which has not won Security Council approval. Serb enclaves will have considerable self-government powers, including over policing.

Serbia continues to argue that Kosovo’s independence is illegitimate. Its powerful ally on the Security Council, Russia, has blocked the Ahtisaari plan and now warns that the independence declaration could lead to the province’s partition.

“There is a de facto division of Kosovo,” said Russia’s ambassador to the UN, Vitaly Churkin.

The United States and other Western countries continue to voice support for Kosovo while also calling for the quick deployment of EULEX. “The independence and sovereignty of Kosovo are non-negotiable,” said Britain’s ambassador to the UN, John Sawers.

EU security chief Javier Solana has said the 2,000-strong mission could be deployed throughout Kosovo by mid-December.
