BALI BOMB - inside job.

1. According to a news story in the Sydney Morning Herald, 2 November 2002, the Indonesian security services may have handled the Bali bomb.

"Some time around the 30 October 2002, senior officers in the Indonesian military HQ gave a piece of information to a military attache from a Western embassy in Indonesia -the source of explosive used in the October 12 bombing in Bali was the head of the counter-terrorism unit with the army's special forces."

The father-in-law of the officer concerned is Hendropriyono, who was Indonesia's spy chief.

2. Reportedly, Kuwaiti citizen Omar Al-Faruq played a part in the Bali bomb plot.

Al-Faruq was arrested in Bogor on June 5, 2002 and handed over to the US authorities.

Former Indonesian State Intelligence Coordinating Board chief A.C. Manulang was quoted by Tempo magazine as saying that Al-Faruq is a CIA agent.

A Pentagon official in Washington has confirmed that al-Faruq escaped from a U.S. detention facility in Bagram, Afghanistan, on 10 July 2005.

3. The airline manifest of Garuda airlines shows that at least two generals from Jakarta visited Bali three days before the bombings and that they returned to Jakarta one day before the Sari Club was blown up.

This was confirmed by armed forces chief General Sutarto, who claimed that General Djaja Suparman was on vacation, while General Ryamizard Riyacudu, chief of staff, was said to have gone to Bali for health reasons.

General Suparman is allegedly one of the generals behind certain 'Moslem' militias.

He reportedly set up militias to counter student demonstrations in 1998.

One of these militias, Pram Swarkasa, reportedly became Laskar Jihad.

4. Bomb explosions in Indonesia have usually been linked to the US-trained military, particularly the Kopassus special forces regiment.

A bomb at the Attorney General's office in Jakarta in July 2000 went off one hour after Tommy Suharto had been interrogated by the police.

The bombs were reportedly traced back to the army and a former member of Suharto's guard.

A spate of explosions in the capital Jakarta in 2000 included a huge car-bomb blast in the underground parking lot of the Jakarta Stock Exchange.

Two members of Kopassus (army special forces) were convicted and jailed for that act of terrorism.

5. It was reported in the Jakarta Post that convicted Bali bomber Ali Imron had been seen, in 2004, having a Starbucks coffee in a plush Jakarta shopping mall in the company of top police official Brigadier General Gorries Mere.

Imron apparently also visited the Hard Rock Cafe.

After Amrozi had been arrested for his part in the Bali Bomb, National Police chief General Da'i Bachtiar had a face to face meeting with him. Bachtiar laughed, shook hands and posed for photographs with Amrozi.

Most of the top Indonesian generals have been trained in the USA.

6. US trained generals set up Jemaah Islamiah, the organisation which has been accused of carrying out the Bali Bombings

In The Age, (We must not get back in bed with Kopassus - theage.com.au), Dr Damien Kingsbury wrote about Moslem militants in Indonesia and their links to the Indonesian military.
Komando Jihad, which became Jemaah Islamiah, was set up by (American trained) Indonesian generals.

Dr Kingsbury wrote: "Kopassus (Indonesian special forces) ... set up the Islamic organisation Komando Jihad ... which has since emerged as Jemaah Islamiah."

And who is supposed to have carried out the Bali Bombings?

Jemaah Islamiah.

Mr Trent Mongan, of the Australian Army , "was in Bali's Sari club on the day of the bombing.

"He left minutes before a bomb blast reduced it to rubble."

Trent Mongan, was also at London's Kings Cross Station on 7th July 2005, whilst on holiday, from his 'work in Sri Lanka'.

He describes being 'at King's Cross Station at the time it blew up'.

Trent Mongan then walks to Russell Square & apparently witnesses the No. 30 bus explosion of 7th July 2005.

Trent Mongan appears to have made calls to Australian media organisations & appeared to have been the first point of contact for spreading the 7/7 story to the far east.

Anonymous comments as follows:

Trent Mongan is apparently a lieutenant in NORFORCE.

NORFORCE is supposed to operate as a Stay Behind force in the event of invasion of Northern Australia.

Yes, Stay Behind, as in NATO Strategy of Tension, Operation Gladio, etc.

These Stay Behind guys seem to train using the same McDonalds operations manual covering sabotage and false flag terrorism.

I suppose it's some sort of CIA elective in the Special Warfare Center or WHINSEC.

Trent and his lovely wife won their trip to Bali in a raffle.
