Obama Uses CIA Funded al-Qaeda Attacks in Yemen to Declare National Emergency

Susanne Posel, Contributor

During a military parade rehearsal this week, more than 90 people were killed after a bomber wearing an army uniform self-exploded amidst a group of soldiers at al-Sabin Square. The terrorist group al-Qaeda claimed the bombing, saying that one of their members carried out the attack.

Along with the estimated 90 killed, defense ministry officials said 222 people were injured in the attack. The al-Qaeda plant was present moments before Defense Minister Nasser Ahmed and the army’s chief-of-staff were scheduled to greet the troops. The majority of the dead were stationed from the Central Security Organization.

Yemen has been the stage for al-Qaeda’s attacks against the president Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi, who recently took office. Hadi has declared war against al-Qaeda, saying it is a “religious duty’ of the state to do so.

US intelligence and military support have been covertly deployed to Yemen. The Obama administration’s terrorism advisor, John Brennan called the attack “cowardly”.

While the violence in Yemen escalates, President Obama took the time to release a new executive order (EO) called Blocking Property of Persons Threatening the Peace, Security, or Stability of Yemen.

In this EO, Obama claims the right to confiscate “all property and interests in property that are in the United States, that hereafter come within the United States, or that are or hereafter come within the possession or control of any United States person, including any foreign branch, of the following persons are blocked and may not be transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in: any person determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State.”


If any person, including US citizens, is accused of assisting a terrorist group of threatening “Yemen’s peace, security, and stability” they will find their possessions and bank accounts confiscated by the US government; as well as being arrested and detained by federal agencies.

Last month, Obama announced that the war on terror  is over, claiming that we are in a “post al-Qaeda era”.

Obama admitted that his new foreign policy would allow that “we have killed most of al-Qaeda, now that people have come to see legitimate means of expression, people who once might have gone into al-Qaeda see an opportunity for a legitimate Islamism.”

However, as Hillary Clinton pointed out, al-Qaeda was a CIA creation trained by the US government and released into strategic countries for the purpose of destabilizing their governments, therefore making the task of usurping control easier for the US government.



According to investigative reporter Seymour Hersch, the Bush administration, in conjunction with Saudi Arabia, was covertly funding radical Suni groups with ties to al-Qaeda to counter Shiite groups backed by Iran. In a game of fake terrorist groups planted into a country to agitate the governments in place this method appears to be common.

Along with the al-Qaeda invention, Osama bin Laden was trained by the CIA and worked for them as an operative. In 2008, Milt Bearden told Dan Rather that the “myth of Osama bin Laden” was created by the US government. At first bin Laden was a great warrior when he worked with the CIA against the Russians in Afghanistan, then he became the go-to bogeyman leader of an “extremist terrorist group called al-Qaeda”.

Further evidence that the US government not only created al-Qaeda, but use them for controlled terrorism in foreign countries comes from Richard Clark in his most recent book.

Clark contends that al-Qaeda was created for Saudi Arabia to bankroll Osama bin Laden, through the House of Saud, “in the Afghan war against the Soviet Union during the 1980s and Riyadh and Washington together contributed an estimated $3.5 billion to the mujahideen.”

The terrorism Yemen is experiencing is obviously controlled by the US government and the Obama administration.

Within US borders, Obama has declared that "any United States citizen, permanent resident alien, entity organized under the laws of the United States or any jurisdiction within the United States (including foreign branches), or any person in the United States” that is suspected of aiding terrorist groups (that the US government has planted in Yemen) will be “obstructing the political process in Yemen”.

The situation in Yemen that has been created by CIA-funded al-Qaeda is being used to declare Yemen “an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy” and the president has “declared a national emergency to deal with that threat”.

By funding the terrorism, the US government, under Obama’s direction is endeavoring to not only destabilize the Yemeni government, but also place American citizens under the threat of being accused of terrorist activities.

We are right back to where we were when the Bush administration used the false flag threat of al-Qaeda terrorism to not only terrify the American public, but justify the arrest and detainment of US citizens.

My guess is Obama is consciously destroying the U.S. with considerable domestic help, or he is a lobotomized puppet who sees no error in is ways. He really sucks as president.

This doesn't even begin to touch on what is really going on in Yemen and it is despicable. The entire situation there was purposely caused by that dog Saleh who cleverly roped in the Americans in an attempt to cash in on the Al Qaeda phobia. Jeremy Scahill has written a couple of pieces after extended visits to Yemen that explain the entire situation and show how the US has, once again, sown chaos and destruction and turned Yemen into another Somalia.

"Yemen has been the stage for al-Qaeda’s attacks against the president Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi, who recently took office. Hadi has declared war against al-Qaeda, saying it is a “religious duty’ of the state to do so."

LOL at that line. Rabbo Mansour Hadi is no "president" he is just another dictator puppet put in place by the US after the people of Yemen fought Saleh for a year and nearly killed him. What the US has done to Yemen and its people is every bit as despicable as what they have done to Iraq or perhaps worse since they've done it covertly and enforced it with drones. Few people are aware of the plight of the people of Yemen and the travesty of the US intervention in that country. Also, this one of our illustrious Nobel Peace Prize laureate's pet projects.

One of the things that WikiLeaks showed is that while the US was bombing and slaughtering Yemeni civilians, Saleh went as far as claiming responsibility for it. And this was one of the main causes of the popular uprising against him. In the interim, while the entire population of Yemen took to the streets peacefully, Saleh's thugs killed them as if they were rabid dogs with the weapons provided to the US while the US itself droned them by the scores. Every American should be paraded to The Hague for their crimes against the people of Yemen and those against humanity at large!

What this article doesn't touch and is a crucial part of the tragedy in Yemen is that the US has caused a human crisis in Yemen akin to that in Somalia. Yet, there isn't one whore in the corporate media that dares even mention the name Yemen unless it is associated with a bogus and/or manufactured "terror" plot designed only to further the US terror campaign against the poor citizens of Yemen.

And this is the legacy the US brings to yet another poor country with no stake whatsoever in the Empire's agenda of world domination and hegemony:

Yemen on brink of food crisis, say aid groups
Instability in Yemen has left the country facing a hunger catastrophe, with nearly half of people without enough food, aid groups have warned.
