The role of Israel in the Christchurch massacre
This
is disingenuous CRAP!
While
they ignore (and indeed,suppress) information about the killer
Brenton's visits to Israel and his putative links with the zionist
state they play the race card.
Since
when was a statement about the notorious intelligence agency of a
nation state about race?
Anti-semitism?
Bullshit!
The
Human Rights Commission (HRC) has weighed into an anti-Semitism row
after a prominent Muslim leader accused Mossad for being behind the
Christchurch terror attack.
On
Saturday, a group called Love Aotearoa Hate Racism organised a rally
for the victims in Auckland's Aotea Square.
Ahmed
Bhamji, chairman of the Mt Roskill Masjid E Umar, gave a speech
questioning where the gunman got his funding from. He said he
suspected it came from "Mossad" and "Zionist
business".
"I
really want to say one thing today. Do you think this guy was
alone... I want to ask you - where did he get the funding from?"
he can be heard saying in video footage.
"I
stand here and I say I have a very, very strong suspicion that
there's some group behind him and I am not afraid to say I feel
Mossad is behind this."
But the HRC has called out Bhamji for his statements, saying it's important to "give nothing to racism".
This
is what the imam said and a response from the crowd
Here
are two articles that go a bit deeper than the lying New Zealand
media.
The
fifth suspect of Christchurch shootings has defected to Israel
16 March, 2019
A suspect confronted the court, two other under investigation; reports about another suspect who left for Israel faces the silence of authorities.
The attack to two mosques in Christchurch, a city in eastern New Zealand, has led to the death of 49 people leaving dozens seriously injured. The terrorist, holding a camera on head live-streaming the attack on Facebook, rushed the Al-Noor mosque with a gun and then fled to streets continuing to shoot the passers-by.
The live-stream stopped a few streets away while minutes later another mosque, Linwood mosques, was targeted by another attack. Most casualties, nevertheless, were reported in the first attack.
The local authorities announced that less than an hour after the attack, the main suspect, a 28-year-old Australian, was arrested while three others were also put under investigation. One suspect was released from custody after the end of primary investigations.
It remains unclear if the attackers of the two mosques were the same or there were five attackers involved. One of the terrorists managed to escape the country hours after Friday noon. The fifth attacker has defected to Israel with the help of unknown aides. No official reaction has been made by Tel Aviv or local authorities on the issue yet.
While the main suspect has confronted the court a day after the terrorist attack, the local authorities has made no remark about his partner(s) in the brutal act.
The distance between the two mosques seems to show that the terrorist would have no chance to get to the second mosque if he were alone. Besides, considering the fact that the attack was terroristic in nature, as the New Zealand Prime Minister asserted, the involvement of other individuals, or other countries, seems probable.
‘Lone wolf’ myth covers up possible Mossad role in New Zealand terrorist attack
Max Parry

Off-Guardian,
27 March, 2019
Ever since the news broke on March 15 of two consecutive mass shootings at the Al Noor Mosque and Linwood Islamic Centre in Christchurch, New Zealand, corporate media has been determined to establish that suspect Brenton Tarrant acted alone in the terrorist attacks that took the lives of 50 innocent Muslim worshippers and wounded 50 others.
While
mainstream media has been predictably eager to parade the tragedy as
another chapter in the wave of rising Islamophobia and right-wing
extremism globally, they have put equal effort into conscientiously
avoiding any evidence that contradicts the ‘lone wolf’ theory
they decided on in the initial hours following the first mass
shooting in New Zealand since 1997.
Whenever
terrorism is committed by Arabs or Muslims, the fourth estate is
usually anxious to speculate whether or not the suspect is connected
to a larger radical syndicate. However, the same scrutiny is seldom
applied to white nationalists like Tarrant.
In
fact, they are even hesitant to label it ‘terrorism’ at all, with
everyone from The
Daily Telegraph to
the fanatical Zionist Rupert Murdoch’s Fox News settling for the
choice words ‘mass shooting.’ While Tarrant denies being part of
any group in his public declaration, he does hint that he is part of
a broader extremist network:
I am not a direct member of any organization or group, though I have donated to many nationalist groups and have interacted with many more. No group ordered my attack, I make the decision myself. Though I did contact the reborn Knights Templar for a blessing in support of the attack, which was given.”
As
many have noted, the “Knights Templar” is the name of an
anti-Muslim militant group that another infamous right-wing
terrorist, Anders Behring Breivik, claimed to belong to. During the
2011 Norway attacks, Breivik targeted a government building in the
city of Oslo and a youth camp of the ruling Labour party on the
island of Utøya in a sequential car bombing and mass shooting that
killed a total of 77 people.
However,
the media and prosecutors in Breivik’s trial were insistent that
the group was fictional and the only possibility was that he was an
‘army of one’ while suffering from a psychiatric disorder,
another trait that is apparently only applicable to white-skinned
terrorists. There was no serious inquiry into whether he was part of
a larger nexus, even though he had direct contact with groups like
the English Defense League (EDL), the British far right Islamophobic
group led by neo-fascist agitator Tommy Robinson.
Breivik
was portrayed as a fundamentalist Christian but was curiously a
member of the Norwegian Order of Freemasons, an organization with a
history of ties to the espionage world and susceptible to
infiltration because of its inherent secrecy. The original Knights
Templar, or “Templars,” were a Christian army founded in the 10th
century who initially shielded pilgrims voyaging to the Holy Land and
later fought against Muslims during the Crusades while the name is
drawn from the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.
What
has been downplayed by the yellow press is the specific brand of
Islamophobic extremism that was the basis of Tarrant’s attacks. His
ideology is revealed in a 73-page manifesto, entitled “The Great
Replacement” in reference to the ‘white genocide’ theory held
by white nationalist identitarians, which he dispatched less than ten
minutes prior to the ambush in emails to several media outlets and
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern’s office.
While
the corporate press is correct that Tarrant and Breivik clearly
follow the practices of the anti-Islam xenophobic movement on the
rise in Europe, North America and now Oceania, the key element they
have deliberately avoided mentioning is a strong collective affinity
for the state of Israel.
The
coverage of Christchurch has repeated the same pattern displayed
following the 2011 Norway attacks where the distinguishing
characteristic of the extremism both culprits adhere to is of a
staunchly pro-Zionist variety which has been decidedly overlooked. In
the eight years between the two attacks, the pro-Israel European
right has only augmented in size.
In
his manifesto, Brenton Tarrant even boasted the unverified claim to
have had “brief contact with Knight Justiciar Breivik” while
taking “true inspiration” from him. His Norwegian idol had his
own 1,500 page manifesto where Israel was approvingly name-dropped
nearly 400 times while he declared:
So let us fight together with Israel, with our Zionist brothers against all anti-Zionists, against all cultural Marxists/multiculturalists.”
The
combination of far right nationalism and support for Israel may seem
like an unlikely combination, but it is an ideology shared by most of
the Islamophobic and anti-immigrant political parties throughout
Europe that have performed impressively well in European Parliament
elections. These include Hungary’s Fidesz, the Italian League and
Five Star Movement, the Flemish Flaams Belang, Poland’s Law and
Justice, Belgian People’s Party, the Progress Party of Norway (of
which Breivik was a member), True Finns Party, France’s National
Rally, Alternative for Deutschland, and many others.
It
is likely that Tarrant, like Breivik, is not anti-semitic and
actually views Jews as ‘allies’ in a civilizational crusade
against Islam. Just as Israel has helped orchestrate the US wars in
the Middle East against its enemies that has contributed to the mass
influx of refugees seeking asylum in the West, it has fostered the
Islamophobic backlash to it by supporting the growing far right
movement that is ascendant.
Following
the tragedy in Christchurch, it was revealed that 28-year old Tarrant
had traveled extensively throughout Europe, the Middle East and Asia,
including to Afghanistan, Pakistan and even North Korea. The year
prior, he
also visited Israel for nine days,
just as his fellow Christian Zionist Breivik had done several times
prior to 2011. Tarrant’s journey in Europe included a stop in
Ukraine, a hotbed of neo-Nazi activity and as it happens during the
massacre he donned the SS wolf’s hook symbol used by the right wing
paramilitary group Azov Battalion to which Israel has provided
weapons support
in its fight against pro-Russian separatists.
The
blend of such considerable travel activity while stockpiling a cache
of semi-automatic firearms with a digital footprint espousing his
extremist views online makes the likelihood that Tarrant managed to
remain under the radar of the New Zealand Security Intelligence
Service (SIS) difficult to believe. It is especially doubtful they
would be unable to detect him considering he was
reportedly interviewed
by New Zealand police prior
to obtaining his firearms license in 2017.
Judging
by the Facebook live-streamed video of the massacre shot by the
suspect himself wearing a GoPro head-mounted camera that resembled a
first-person shooter video game shows he was no amateur and possibly
professionally trained as a militant. Given his extensive travel and
the apparent expertise used to carry out the attacks, there are many
legitimate questions about how his ventures were sponsored and
whether he had accomplices.
Police
found undetonated car bombs in addition to his arsenal and believe he
was planning on carrying out a third attack with them. What was he
doing in his travels? Was he really able to finance everything alone
using crypto-currency investments as purported by the media? He could
very well have been a patsy in a larger plot or received support from
abroad. For instance, from a certain national intelligence service
whose notorious motto is “for
by cunning stratagems, you wage war.”
Mossad
covert operations have been exposed several times over the years
violating New Zealand’s sovereignty and international law which
caused a series of diplomatic rows between the two countries. Most
recently was in 2011 following a 6.2 magnitude earthquake in
Christchurch which caused significant damage to the city and killed
185 people, coincidentally the very same week as the attacks in
Norway by Anders Breivik.
Incredibly,
a stone structure of a building collapsed onto a van during the
earthquake which killed a man inside who turned out to be an Israeli
national. His deathaccidentally
unearthed a ring of Mossad agents after
the man was discovered with multiple fake passports and USB flash
drives which contained confidential data believed to have been
illegally downloaded from the New Zealand police’s national
computer system.
The
other agents in the Israeli sleeper cell were able to flee the
country less than a day after his body was discovered, probably to
avoid the fallout that occurred after an earlier incident in the
country just a few years prior. In 2004, two
Israeli men who turned out to be Mossad agents were arrested trying
to obtain fraudulent passports and travel documentation that included
stealing the identity of a quadriplegic. The two men were
subsequently jailed for six months for engaging in criminal
enterprise.

Mossad
seemed to have developed a habit of revealing themselves in light of
the infamous arrest of five of its agents in Secaucus,
New Jersey on the morning of September 11th, 2001 by
the FBI who were tipped off that a group of men were observed
suspiciously dancing and celebrating while watching the WTC towers
ablaze and collapsing across the Hudson River.
The
“dancing Israelis” were found with $5,000 in cash which raised
suspicions while their vehicle was traced to a shady moving company
called Urban Moving Systems that was suspected to be a front for an
intelligence operation after their headquarters was abandoned and its
owner, Dominick Suter, immediately fled to Israel following their
apprehension. During their two month detention, the CIA intervened
and halted the probe while the agents were subsequently deported in a
deal with the Israeli government for overstaying their visas but not
before it was confirmed that at least two of the men were
intelligence officers and no ordinary moving company employees.
The
world was briefly reminded of this mysterious case when Donald Trump
as a presidential candidate in 2016 made the wild exaggeration that
on 9/11 he had personally observed “thousands of Muslims”
celebrating the destruction of the Twin Towers across the river in
New Jersey. It is likely that Trump mixed up two different reports
from 9/11, one of Reuters footage widely circulated by major networks
of a small group of Arabs in East Jerusalem celebrating the attacks
and the reports about the Israelis arrested in New Jersey who were
initially believed to have been of “Middle Eastern appearance”
and descent.
One
wonders if Trump would accurately recall
his other observations that
morning now that he is in the service of his Saudi and Israeli
masters. Needless to say, this widely suppressed story which should
have been front page news led many to rightly suspect there was prior
knowledge and even direct involvement among Israeli intelligence in
the 9/11 attacks, along with a trove of other evidence.
The
New Jersey cell were also in possession of foreign passports. Mossad
has typically used fake passports, including that of Australians and
Kiwis, regularly
for its clandestine operations and
carrying out assassinations like the 2010 targeted killing of Hamas
official Mahmoud al-Mabhouh in Dubai which one of the spies
apprehended in New Zealand, Zev Barkan, was involved in. After the
arrest of the two spooks in New Zealand in 2004, the government
imposed diplomatic sanctions against Israel and temporarily severed
high-level contacts between the two countries in what became a
significant diplomatic rift. WikiLeaks diplomatic cables revealed
that the U.S. was
not at all pleased.
Relations
had returned to normal between the countries until December 2016 when
along with Malaysia, Senegal, Venezuela and others, New Zealand
co-sponsored the controversial United Nations Security Council
Resolution 2334 which condemned Israeli settlements in occupied
Palestinian territories during the last months of the Obama
administration. The same motion briefly became mired in the
Trump-Russia investigation when former National Security Advisor
Michael Flynn pled guilty to lying to the FBI about lobbying
activities related to the resolution during the transition between
administrations on behalf of Israel.
The
Trump White House has since proven to be the most fanatically Zionist
presidency since the foundation of the Jewish state in 1948. Over the
years, New Zealand has shown a willingness to stand up to Jerusalem
and its brazen disregard for international law that other nations
could learn from. Despite being a small nation, it has played
an important role in
pro-Palestinian activism and the prospect of Palestinian statehood
just as it did in protesting South African Apartheid in the 1980s.
In
2018, when New Zealand-born popular musician Lorde canceled a concert
in Tel Aviv in solidarity with the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions
(BDS) movement, she became the target of vicious Zionist smear
campaign which saw right-wing Trumpist Rabbi Schmuley Boteach take
out a full-page ad in The
Washington Post denouncing
her as a bigot while a $13,000 lawsuit was filed by the Mossad-linked
Shurat HaDin lawfare NGO. Meanwhile, unlike Australian Prime Minister
Scott Morrison, Jacinda Ardern has been critical of the Trump
administration’s move of the U.S. embassy from Tel Aviv to
Jerusalem, stating it undermines the Israeli-Palestinian peace
process.
New
Zealand’s relatively even-handed foreign policy has likely rattled
the Zionists and their far right Islamophobic counterparts in the
West and it is possible that it is viewed as a threat to the
interests of Israel and the U.S. The feasibly manufactured terrorist
attack against New Zealand has greatly disrupted the small country, a
state which in 2018 had its lowest homicide rate in 40 years and
averages well below 100 murders per year, making this attack an
extremely rare occurrence for the peaceful country.
In
light of the attacks on the mosques in Christchurch, it could now end
up acquiring the police state model of the U.S. and Israel as part of
the global ‘War on Terror.’ The country immediately issued a ban
on semiautomatic weapons following the tragedy in a disturbing
rollback of civil liberties while engaging in an unprecedented
censorship effort to criminalize sharing and possession of Tarrant’s
manifesto and video. Prior to Breivik’s perpetration of the attacks
in Norway, there had been significant political tensions between Oslo
and Jerusalem in the months leading up to the violence due to
Norway’s intent to recognize a Palestinian state and the
circumstances in relations between New Zealand and Israel prior to
Christchurch is eerily reminiscent.
Israel
has a storied history of being a state sponsor of international
terrorism as well as the use of ‘false flag’ operations to
achieve its political objectives, most notably in the 1954 Lavon
Affair, codenamed Operation Susannah, where the Aman branch of its
military intelligence services recruited Egyptian nationals to commit
bombings to be blamed on the Muslim Brotherhood in order to maintain
desired British military presence in Egypt.
It
continues such cloak-and-dagger tactics to this day with the use of
terror proxies such as the Kurdistan Free Life Party (PJAK) and
Mojahedin-e-Khalq (MEK) to undermine Iran, as well as the arming and
funding of al-Qaeda affiliated Syrian jihadist groups against the
Assad government. If it is willing to co-sponsor radical Islamists
with its ally Saudi Arabia to attack their mutual regional enemies,
now that the ruling Likud Party has made strange bedfellows with far
right Islamophobes in the West it is within the realm of possibility
it would continue to do the same especially when the victims are Arab
or Muslim.
Regardless
of whether or not there turns out to be any Mossad fingerprints
discovered on the Christchurch shootings, if the world is serious
about confronting the emerging far right internationally it must be
willing to accurately diagnose the phenomenon. One of its most
distinctive attributes is its Christian Zionism and a shared belief
that the Bible gives Israel evidential right to Palestinian land and
that Jews are inherently non-indigenous to Europe.
The
ever-expanding colonization of the West Bank and Gaza has solidified
Israel’s nationalist foundations, especially now that Arabic has
been removed as a second official language and the passing of the
2018 Nationality Law defining Israel as an ethno-nationalist state
with Arabs officially second-class citizens. If Israel did not
directly participate in the 9/11 attacks by infiltrating the al-Qaeda
cell in Hamburg, Germany and directing the airplane hijackings as
many legitimately suspect, it has certainly facilitated the U.S. wars
in the Middle East against its regional enemies and now it is
nurturing the Islamophobic far right in the West hostile to the flood
of displaced refugees fleeing them.
Israeli
policy has principally benefited from all this but one can only
expect the hasbaric retaliation of ‘anti-Semitism’ smears like
those against UK Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn and U.S.
Congresswoman Ilhan Omar of Minnesota for pointing this out. In the
meantime, the Russiagate hoax has deflected attention away from
Jerusalem toward Moscow in regards to foreign cultivation of the
growing far right nationalist movement in the West. One hopes the
recent bust of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report will put
some of the distraction to rest and shift the speculation toward
Israel where it belongs.
Finally,
the political confusion of zealots like Tarrant needs to be addressed
as entirely predictable instead of as unintended consequences of the
War on Terror and the financial crisis. Recently, 2020 Democratic
U.S. Presidential candidate Andrew Yang became the subject of
establishment-led smears simply for acknowledging verifiable facts
about declining birth-rates of white Americans where he was vilified
as adjoining with the views of those like Tarrant. Yet these
statistics designated by race that Yang recognized are expressions of
the results of class conflict while genuine anger is being
misdirected toward immigrants instead of capital and its never-ending
changes in labor demands.
This
is the cycle which must be broken if this holy war between the West
and Islam stirred up by Zionists or what the orientialist Samuel
Huntington called the ‘clash of civilizations’ is to end. If not,
we cannot only expect the U.S. empire to continue its downward slide
and its fear of a multipolar world to culminate in an internecine
that will turn the whole world into a tragedy like Christchurch.
