http://www.naturalnews.com/039977_The_Craft_Boston_marathon_private_military_contractors.html

Natural News has now confirmed that at least five private military contractors were operating on scene at the Boston marathon, and that they all carried black backpacks which look very similar to the backpack carrying the pressure cooker bomb (see pictures below).

The mainstream media is completely censoring any mention of these “Craft” operatives, pretending they don’t even exist. Only the alternative media is conducting real investigative journalism on these bombings. The mainstream media isn’t interested in the truth; they only want to spin the attack into a new way to somehow blame conservative Americans for something they had no part in.

Thanks to the help of researchers posting on 4Chan, plus a bit of our own analysis, we’ve been able to bring new research to light as you’ll see in the photos below.

Who is this guy and what is he holding in his hand?

The following photo was snapped mere moments after the first bomb detonation. Many people are asking, “Who is this guy?” and why is he dressed in combat boots and military BDUs (pants)? More importantly, what is he carrying in his hand?

We were able to get a close-up of the object in his hand:

With a bit of research, we were able to confirm this object is an “Inspector Radiation Alert” device that detects the kind of radiation which would be produced in a dirty bomb attack or a nuclear attack:

This immediately brings up all sorts of questions, such as: Who hired this guy? Whose side is he on? Why would he anticipate the need for a nuclear radiation detector? What kind of private military operative routinely carries such expensive gadgets?

Four more operatives with the exact same uniforms
As we browsed through the photos, we located four more private military operatives with the exact same dress: Tan combat boots, tan BDUs, black jackets, black backpacks and tactical communications gear.

Here’s a picture of three of these men reacting to the explosion. The one in the middle is the same guy in the radiation detector photo, above:

There are several things worth noting in this image:

1) All three of the men look surprised, even shocked by the events. This might argue against their prior knowledge of the bombings.

2) The object in the right hand of the man in the middle may resemble a small handgun, but I’m sure it isn’t. Why? Because no highly trained private military operative would carry a handgun with a “pincer” grip as appears in the photo. A proper grip on a handgun is far deeper into the palm. This object is most likely the same radiation detector shown above, just captured from a weird angle with a flapping leather case of some sort.

3) The man on the left, an older gentleman, appears to be holding an object in his right hand which seems capable of being actuated with his thumb.

4) The man on the right reveal “The Craft” skull logo on his shirt because his jacket just happened to open up for this photo (see below).

Here’s a photo comparison of “The Craft” logo on his shirt:

Here are two more operatives on the scene, wearing the exact same uniform:

If you look at the hat for one of these men, you can clearly see “the Craft” skull logo on his hat:

Navy SEAL sniper Chris Kyle was also a member of The Craft. He was murdered by one of his close friends a few months ago. The appearance of The Craft operatives at the Boston marathon bombing raises new questions about Chris Kyle’s death:

Here’s Chris Kyle on national TV wearing the “Craft” hat:

Here’s the Craft motto, which says “Violence does solve problems.”

If you still doubt these are “Craft” operatives, check out The Craft website where all these images, logos and uniforms are instantly confirmed.

Bomb bag resembles the black backpacks worn by The Craft operatives

Here’s where all this gets incredibly spooky: The backpack that carried the pressure cooker bomb looks very similar to the black backpacks worn by The Craft operatives:

Here’s another view of the “Craft” skull logo on a training shirt, taken from their own website:

This photo shows The Craft operatives at a trade show. Everybody is wearing the trademark tan combat boots and tan BDUs:

What does it all mean?

First off, let’s get the attacks of the moron trolls out of the way — people who will say these photos are a “conspiracy theory.”

How are photos of actual people at the event a conspiracy theory?

They aren’t. In real police work, they’re called “evidence,” and the people in these photos should be persons of interest.

But they aren’t. The entire mainstream media and law enforcement apparatus is now pretending these men don’t exist. (Now that’s their conspiracy theory!)

We all know, however, that The Craft operatives don’t work for free. They aren’t a band of volunteers. And that means somebody paid them to be at the event.

Who paid The Craft to be there? And what was their mission?

Why is their existence at the Boston marathon being memory-holed? Why are they not “persons of interest” in the investigation?

Why do they carry radiation detectors? What’s in their backpacks? (A ham sandwich?)

The fact that the media refuses to even acknowledge the existence of these private military operatives is quite telling all by itself.

(And while your eyes are distracted…)

The US House of Representatives has passed the controversial Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protect Act (CISPA).

Lawmakers in the House voted 288-to-127 Thursday afternoon to accept the bill. Next it will move to the Senate and could then end up on the desk of US President Barack Obama for him to potentially sign the bill into law. Earlier this week, though, senior White House advisers said they would recommend the president veto the bill.

Should CISPA earn the president’s autograph, private businesses will be encouraged to voluntarily share cyberthreat information with the US government. The authors of the bill say this is an effort to better combat the reportedly increasing attempts to harm America’s critical computer networks and pilfer the systems of private companies for intellectual property and other sensitive trade secrets.

One of the bill’s creators, Rep. Dutch Ruppersberger (D-Maryland), said during a round of debate on Wednesday that $400 billion worth of American trade secrets are being stolen by US companies every year. Passing CISPA, he said, would be a common sense solution to a threat that’s growing at an alarming rate.

Who murdered Mountbatten?

Christopher Spivey

 

I think that it is quite obvious by now that detectives from Operation Yewtree aren’t going to bother knocking on Prince Big Ear’s door or even that of his father Phil the Duck’s… Unfortunately.

As far as I’m concerned, the fact that they haven’t and have no intention of doing so is a complete travesty of justice.

The case for suspecting that Big Ears is involved in paedophilia is, after all, pretty clear cut:

Veteran BBC presenter Bill Oddie has backed claims that Jimmy Savile’s abuse was covered up because he was close friends with Prince Charles and was a regular visitor to Kensington Palace, Buckingham Palace, and Highgrove. Former palace Aide, Dickie Arbiter, told the Guardian newspaper Savile would greet young women working at the palace by “rubbing his lips all the way up their arms in the palace typing pool.”

A former BBC chauffeur says that BBC chauffeurs were sacked if they tried to blow the whistle on Jimmy Savile’s child-sex-rape activities.The chauffeur said he had once driven home a ‘hysterical’ 12-year-old girl. The girl said she had been sexually assaulted by Savile after appearing on a BBC TV programme.

The BBC must investigate whether its staff acted as enablers or, better word, accomplices to Savile’s crimes.

SOURCE

 

And more tellingly still, this:

PIMPING FOR PRINCE CHARLES

Savile told Esquire: ‘The thing about me is I get things done and I work deep cover. I’ve known the Royal Family for a million years.’

According to the UK Daily Mail at the time of Savile’s death in 2011, Savile said that he was invited to regular meetings with the royal family because ‘I have a natural good fun way of going on and we have a laugh.’ Would one of the world’s most powerful families invite an aging disc jockey into their inner sanctum so often just because he gave them ‘a good laugh’? Or is there likely to be a far more plausible reason for their strange closeness?

Dickie Arbiter, now 72, was in charge of media relations for the Queen between 1988 and 2000. He told the media that Savile visited Prince Charles’s official London residence St James’s Palace frequently. Savile’s behavior on visits to Prince Charles’ residence aroused “concern and suspicion”. A palace insider said of the claims that several people were well aware of Savile’s alleged abuse of children.

Police have searched Savile’s cottage in the Scottish Highlands after fears he used the home to abuse victims. It is reported 20 allegations of abuse at the cottage are being investigated.

Prince Charles was a private guest at Jimmy Savile’s isolated and remote cottage in Glencoe in the Scottish Highlands. Savile famously hired three waitresses for the occasion and dressed them in aprons bearing the initials HRH.

SOURCE

As for Dobby’s dad, the Duck of Edinburgh! Well, he had been friends with Savile long before his son was:

At this point, it should be mentioned that, although the official line is that Savile and Charles met in the 1970s as part of the coincidence of mutual charity work, Savile himself has stated that he was friends with the Royal family “for a million years.”

In fact, it was reported that Savile actually stated he was introduced to the Royals in 1966 by Lord Mountbatten, a known paedophile and sexual pervert. In addition to Mountbatten, however, Greg Hallett, in his book Hitler Was A British Agent, also names Prince Philip as a paedophile.

In reference to how he became introduced and ingratiated with the Royal family, Savile stated, coming from Lord Louis, who was the favourite uncle of Prince Philip that was quite something.

So obviously, I hooked up with the Prince – what was good enough for Lord Louis was good enough for him.

SOURCE

Course, it has since been well documented that the Duck and the Deejay fell out in spectacular fashion. That to me is strange in itself. After all, the Duck is the King of England in all but name.

I therefore question what he and an ageing radio star had in common with one another to fall out over in the first place.

That is to say, if the Duck was pissed off with the flamboyant nonce for whatever reason, why wasn’t Savile simply frozen out of the Royal circle?

Surely, such action is more in keeping with the parasites usual methods towards someone who has given them the right fucking hump.

The fact that the Duck and Savile did row, should have got any half decent coppers nose twitching straight away, given mind to what is known about the cunt.

Then again, the fact that Lord Louie Mountbatten – hero and mentor to the Duck & Big Ears – introduced the Duck to savile, should have triggered alarm bells in anyone who has a smidgen of knowledge on the true history of the Royal family.

You see, to the majority of those who cannot see the wood for the trees, Lord Louie Mountbatten was a war hero, one of those, who put the Great in Britain.

The following is what the Royal Spongers would have you believe, as told by Wikipedia:

Admiral of the Fleet Louis Francis Albert Victor Nicholas George Mountbatten, 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma, KGGCBOMGCSIGCIE,GCVODSOPCFRS 

Born Prince Louis of Battenberg; 25 June 1900 – 27 August 1979) – known informally as Lord Mountbatten – he was a British statesman and naval officer, an uncle of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh and second cousin once removed to Elizabeth II.

He was the last Viceroy of India (1947) the first Governor-General of the independent Union of India (1947–48), from which the modern Republic of India emerged in 1950. From 1954 until 1959, he was the First Sea Lord, a position that had been held by his father, Prince Louis of Battenberg, some forty years earlier.

Thereafter he served as Chief of the Defence Staff until 1965, making him the longest serving professional head of the British Armed Forces to date. During this period, Mountbatten also served as Chairman of the NATO Military Committee for a year.

Pretty impressive, don’t cha know.

Moreover, most people of a certain age know that In 1979, Mountbatten was assassinated by the Provisional IRA, who had planted a bomb on-board his boat, the Shadow V, at Mullaghmore, County Sligo, in Ireland.

The force of the blast reduced the boat to Matchsticks.

No doubt, the very same matchsticks that Ian Dickhead Smiff would have you believe he sold on street corners in order to make ends meet, when he was a real person… But I digress and probably even exaggerate a little.

Mountbatten, then aged 79, had been pulled out of the sea alive, but died from his injuries before reaching the shore.

Unsurprisingly, further sympathy had been bestowed on the Royal Family by the sycophantic, British public – at that time still largely unaware of their true nature and moral standards – because of the others who were killed and wounded in the explosion.

Those also killed in the blast were Nicholas Knatchbull, Mountbatten’s 14-year-old grandson; and Paul Maxwell, a 15-year-old from County Fermanagh who was a ‘crew member’.

The Dowager Lady Brabourne, Grandmother to Nicholas Knatchbull, was seriously injured in the explosion and died from her injuries the following day.

Nicholas Knatchbull’s mother and father, along with his twin brother Timothy, survived the explosion but were seriously injured

According to Wikipedia, the IRA gave clear reasons for the execution:

I think it is unfortunate that anyone has to be killed, but the furore created by Mountbatten’s death showed up the hypocritical attitude of the media establishment. As a member of the House of Lords, Mountbatten was an emotional figure in both British and Irish politics.

What the IRA did to him is what Mountbatten had been doing all his life to other people; and with his war record I don’t think he could have objected to dying in what was clearly a war situation.

He knew the danger involved in coming to this country. In my opinion, the IRA achieved its objective: people started paying attention to what was happening in Ireland.

Course, being a war hero, a pillar of society, and a member of the Royal Elite meant that Mountbatten was awarded a State Funeral. The following is once again from Wikipedia:

On 5 September 1979, Lord Mountbatten received a State Funeral at Westminster Abbey, which was attended by the Queen, the Royal Family and members of the European royal houses.

Watched by thousands of people, the funeral procession, which started at Wellington Barracks, included representatives of all three British Armed Services, and military contingents from Burma, India, the United States, France, and Canada.

His coffin was drawn on a gun carriage by 118 Royal Navy ratings. During the televised service, the Prince of Wales read the lesson from Psalm 107. 

In an address, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Donald Coggan, highlighted his various achievements and his “lifelong devotion to the Royal Navy”. 

After the public ceremonies, which he had planned himself, Mountbatten was buried in Romsey Abbey.

The President of Ireland, Patrick Hillery, and the Taoiseach, Jack Lynch, attended a memorial service for Mountbatten in St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Dublin on 5 September 1979.

Just goes to show how easily the ‘enlightened’ public are made mugs of doesn’t it?

You see, Louis Mountbatten was an abomination of a man. A man, who should in fact, have been removed from this earth years before the IRA did us all a favour – if indeed it was the IRA.

 

I say that because Mountbatten was a dangerous, predatory paedophile, who had in the past had a sexual relationship with his cousin King Edward VIII – himself a warped sexual deviant – who abdicated in order to marry the right old slapper Wallis Simpson.

Now, if you have read my article Monsters Inc you will know that Wallis Simpson used to push Edward around in a pram at Parties (Sex Orgies).

You see Edward was one of those warped human beings who got his sexual kicks from wearing a nappy and being treated like a baby. Course, Wallis Simpson, being a right old banger had no objections to her husband’s fetish.

Edward also used to like dressing up in ladies clothes. Kinda makes you wonder what the Queen Mother saw in him doesn’t it? It is after all, well documented that Bizzy Lizzy the 1st despised Mrs Simpson because she was in love with Edward.

Greg Hallett, is from New Zealand and is an authority on Royal history. The following is what he has to say about Wallis Simpson:

Now, the person who became King Edward VIII married Wallis Simpson, who was three times divorced, absolutely sabotaged, and she was considered bisexual.

She was considered a drug dealer, she was considered completely unsuitable, she was having affairs with every second, second hand car salesman in London, and she was Androgen Insensitivity Symptom Grade 4, which means that she was conceived as a male, and didn’t quite fully transition into a female, which would be Grade 7. Grade 1 for male, Grade 7 is a female model.

So she had both bits, which King Edward VIII liked because he was bisexual himself. 

Interestingly enough, Mountbatten was also Edward’s best man when he married Mrs Simpson.

From incestuous sex with Edward VIII, Mountbatten moved on to sexually abuse his Nephew Phil the Duck.

And, just like his Uncle Louie, the Duck’s penchant for ‘liking’ children also became apparent at a young age. The following is taken from  the author, Phillip Eade’s book about the Queens husband as a duckling:

Philip had met Princess Elizabeth, his second cousin once removed and heir to the throne, several times, but things stepped up a gear when he made a visit in 1939. He was 18 and Elizabeth was 13.

The future queen’s governess described how, while they were playing with a clockwork railway, Philip came into the room. “For a while they knelt side by side playing with the trains. He soon got bored with that. We had ginger crackers and lemonade in which he joined and then he said, ‘Let’s go to the tennis courts and have some real fun jumping over the nets!’

At the tennis courts I thought he showed off a little too much. Lilibet said, ‘How good he is! How high he can jump!’ He spent a lot of time teasing plump little Margaret.” Later that evening, when Philip went for dinner with the king, Elizabeth had already been sent to bed according to the nursery schedule. 

In turn, unbelievable as it may seem, the vile paedophile Mountbatten was then given carte blanche to sexually abuse his very young Great-Nephew, Prince Big Ears.

And, who gave him permission to do so?

None other than Phil the Duck and his Wife Bizzy Lizzy.

The following is taken from my article Monsters Inc:

It is also a documented fact that Dobby’s young life was shaped by his Great Uncle Louis Mountbatten. Wikipedia has this to say on that matter:

Mountbatten was a strong influence in the upbringing of his grand-nephew, Prince Charles, Prince of Wales, and later as a mentor—”Honorary Grandfather” and “Honorary Grandson”, they fondly called each other according to the Jonathan Dimbleby biography of the Prince.

Now while that may sound innocuous enough in its self, the fact that Mountbatten was a known gay paedophile, who was known to have had incestuous relationships with both Edward VIII & Prince Philip, should have meant that he wasn’t allowed within a 100 miles of the young Prince Dobby.

Or maybe there were darker, more sinister reasons for Charles to be in the care of such a vile monster…

So who was Lord Louie Mountbatten?

Louis of Battenberg was born in Windsor, England, on 25th June 1900 and was actually the great grandson of Queen Victoria, and the second cousin of George V.

His father, Prince Louis of Battenberg, who had been born in Austria changed the family name from Battenberg to Mountbatten, during World War 1, due to the public’s resentment to all things German.

In 1922, Mountbatten married Edwina Ashley, who was described as the spoiled favourite granddaughter of a Jewish financier close to the royals. She was also the richest and most glamorous deb of her time.

However, what wasn’t widely known was that Edwina, like Wallis Simpson, was a proper dirty old slag and a horrible bitch to boot. Course, with her new husband being at best; a bi-sexual paedophile – if not an outright homosexual paedophile – he was useless to her in the bedroom department.

The following is from the Daily Mail:

After a fumbling honeymoon, some of it spent in Hollywood, Mountbatten resumed his career as a naval officer.

Meanwhile, the stylish Edwina, described as one of the six best- dressed women in the world, shopped at Chanel, played bridge, and danced the Charleston until 3am, sometimes with Fred Astaire.

At weekends, their country home was full of guests (including the Prince of Wales) arriving in fast cars and even aeroplanes.

Vain, charming and boyish, Dickie was devoted to Edwina, but still awkward in bed. He famously named her breasts Mutt and Jeff – the nicknames that World War I soldiers gave their campaign medals. 

To him, sex was unromantic, ‘a mixture of psychology and hydraulics’. There were also mutterings that he preferred men.

Things went downhill after their daughter Patricia was born in 1924. 

While Mountbatten doted on the new arrival, the passionate Edwina was pathologically jealous of her own child being the centre of attention. 

‘A divine little daughter’.

Too thrilling, too sweet,’ she trilled to her diary  –  but then packed the baby off to nannies on the South Coast. The highly sexed Edwina then proceeded to look for lovers from all walks of life.

Her first was the aristocratic Lord Molyneux. He was followed by a rich, polo-playing American, Laddie Sandford, and then by Mike Wardell, the good-looking manager of a London evening newspaper. At times, she juggled all three at once.

‘Lord Molyneux is in the morning-room and Mr Sandford in the library, but where should I put the other gentleman?’ asked a desperate flunkey when they happened to visit together. 

While her husband was posted to Malta in the early Thirties, she turned to American golf champion Bobby Sweeny. 

Next came playboy Larry Gray, before she went on a Mexican cruise and jumped into bed with the elder of two Californian brothers, Ted Phillips, quickly followed by his sibling Bunny.

This serial sexual gallivanting went on until the birth of her second daughter Pamela in 1929.

[…]She even dallied with conductor Malcolm Sargent, and then embarked on her most adventurous affair to date, with the bisexual West Indian cabaret pianist Leslie Hutchinson.

Although Edwina successfully sued a newspaper for saying she had a black lover, there is not much doubt she conducted an on-off relationship with ‘Hutch’ for 30 years. 

She famously gave him a gold bracelet bearing her name, a gold cigarette case and, conclusively perhaps, a jewelled penis sheath from Cartier…

Mind you, at one stage, Mountbatten himself freely admitted that: “Edwina and I spent all our married lives getting into other people’s beds.”

Furthermore, in the Biography Francis Wheen wrote about the notorious Labour MP, Tom Driberg, the author states that like Driberg, Mountbatten had “a sexual preference for men”.

However, what Wheen neglects to mention is that like Driberg – who was being blackmailed by the notorious Kray Twins in the 1960’s – Mountbatten was a predatory paedophile.

Boston Bombing: Bomb squad was running “controlled explosion” on the same day

Posted: April 16, 2013 in Alternative News, Conspiracy

(NaturalNews) Two bombs have rocked the streets of Boston and reportedly injured 22 marathon runners (two have reportedly died). It’s too early to know the cause of these explosions, but you can rest assured both the state and federal government will try to use this tragic event to blame whatever convenient enemies are most advantageous for the government.

No one has yet stepped forward to claim responsibility for the bombs, and the fact that no firearms were used in the attack may indicate this was NOT part of a false flag effort by the government to try to blame gun owners. (But it’s still way too early to tell…)

Here at Natural News, we are horrified at this loss of innocent life, and we are praying for the victims of this bombing as well as their families.

Bomb squad was running “controlled explosion” on the same day

What’s not yet being reported by the mainstream media is that a “controlled explosion” was under way on the same day as the marathon explosion.

As the Boston Globe tweeted today, “Officials: There will be a controlled explosion opposite the library within one minute as part of bomb squad activities.”

Some people believe this explosion might have been part of the demolition of another bomb. It seems unlikely, however, that a bomb at the library, one mile away, could be so quickly located and rigged to be exploded by the bomb squad in less than one hour following the initial explosions at the marathon.

Bloomberg news is now saying, “This is very likely a terrorist attack.”

The question is: Who are the terrorists? It’s far too early to take an informed guess on all this. However, it is indisputable that the FBI is actively engaged in carrying out bomb plots in the United States, then halting them at the last minute to “catch the terrorists.” This fact has been covered by the New York Times, among other publications.

Also read
FBI ‘entrapment’ tactics questioned in web of phony terror plots and paid informants
.

Keep in mind I am in no way blaming the FBI for this. Most men and women who work with the FBI are upstanding citizens who would be appalled at such acts. But it is theoretically possible that one of the FBI’s many “terror plots” went too far and turned into a live bomb instead of a dud followed by an arrest for “domestic terrorism.”

For the record, the explosions seemed relatively small for a false flag, and most false flags target children in order to maximize the emotional leverage after the event. That these explosions did not target children is yet more evidence that it may not have been a false flag at all.

Either way, terrorism always works in the favor of the state. It makes presidents look presidential, and it gives the government an excuse to crack down on civil liberties all across the country.

Be wary of who ultimately gets blamed for this, especially if it’s a veteran or patriot.

Welcome to Orwell’s 1984!

Welcome to Orwell's 1984!

Welcome to Orwell’s 1984 in London, UK

With the Olympics coming to town in only 2 weeks, does anyone consider food will be on the menu at the stadium?

Well considering the 3 major food corporations are McDonald’s, Coco-cola and Cadbury it will be interesting what the menu will be.

To sell fish and chips, the London organising committee (Locog) had to get a special dispensation from McDonald’s, the official restaurant sponsor, which is expected to provide 10% of meals served at the Games. Under its deal with the International Olympic Committee, t he fast-food chain had the sole rights to sell chips or french fries. It allows Locog’s caterers to sell fish and chips, but not chips on their own.

“Out of the 205 nations sending athletes, 195 are represented in the six Olympic boroughs and that means British food is world food,” said Jan Matthews, head of catering at Locog. “We are trying to make it feel like a food festival and we have walked round Borough market [a London gastronomic market] several times to try and get that feel. There will be fruit barrows and stalls where you can buy different types of olives.”

So let me get this right, McDonald’s are stopping people from selling chips on their own, unless brought by them. I thought this was meant to be a Free-Market capitalism society.

Bottled water, long-lens cameras and Che Guevara T-shirts all banned from stadiums in new crackdown. What’s next hey?
