BRIDGET JOHNSON @ PJM REALLY BRINGS HOME THE BACON HERE: INDONESIAN TERROR GROUP, CLOSE ZAWAHIRI ALLY, PREVIOUSLY PLOTTED REGIONAL HIJACKINGS
Remember ole Ayman al-Zawahiri? Refresh your memory.
Her piece connects some of the dots in the global terrorist networks, puts things in historical perspective and suggest motives for this current attack. It is well-worth a careful read. Some highlights:
WASHINGTON — An Indonesian terrorist organization that a senior defense official said this week posed a “serious transnational threat” has previously been caught planning hijackings in the region where Malaysian Airlines Flight MH370 disappeared.
U.S. military assets participating in the search and recovery efforts confirmed they were asked to relocate to the west side of Indonesia in the Indian Ocean as pings indicated the plane turned away from its route to China and turned back over the Malaysian peninsula. ABC News also reported Thursday that the data-reporting system on the flight shut down before the transponder, from 1:07 a.m.to 1:21 a.m., raising suspicions that the plane was at the hands of someone nefarious.
Jemaah Islamiyah has long had designs on roping Malaysia and the Philippines into an Islamist state along with Indonesia, and was designated a foreign terrorist organization by the U.S. government after the 2002 Bali nightclub bombing. The group has traditionally used Malaysia for fundraising and as a home base for trainees fresh from the Af-Pak region.
JI plotter Mas Selamat Kastari, who escaped from custody in Singapore in 2008 and was recaptured in Malaysia the following year, was accused of orchestrating a plot earlier in the decade to hijack a plane out of Bangkok’s airport and crash it into Singapore’s airport.Read the whole thing to get up to speed.
Jemaah Islamiyah had been considered a shadow of its former self in recent years, but the terror group’s name has been occasionally dropped on Capitol Hill as a jihadi movement getting a new lease on life in a post-Osama world.
But wait! There's more. In the comments section of Johnson's piece there's a fascinating comment written by a tjking connecting even more dots. Another must-read which I will quote it in full:
There are a number of reasons the White House responds to terror attacks with, "There's no proof yet it is a terror attack", "Lets not jump to conclusions", and "We don't comment on an ongoing investigation". The primary reason is Obama's and Kerry's 9/10 idea that we go back to the day when terror was a mere nuisance like prostitution and stains on blue dresses. This time it might be more personal.
http://dailycaller.com/2012/06/26/rep-peter-king-asks-for-explanation-of-terrorists-visa-white-house-visit/
In the midst of Obama's re-election Rep. Peter King and other Republicans asked why the President allowed a visa and a White House meeting with a known member of Gamal Islamiya, the terror group mentioned in this article.
Why, Indeed. This terror group bombed the WTC in 93, funded by KSM, once run by the blind sheik, and while continuing to operate under Rahman's sons, was kept in communication with the Sheik and AQ through liberal attorney Lynne Stewart, who was linked to Michelle Obama and the President's Chicago law firm.
Don't get me wrong, I'm only saying these are embarrassing images. Also embarrassing, when Morsi's MB took over in 2011, Obama compared them to MLK and Ghandi. When the elections came around, Rahman's AQ affiliated Gamal Islamiya formed a political wing and won enough seats to form a Radical Islamic coalition (read terrorist) to control Morsi. The amount of power they wielded swayed Obama to allow their spokesperson to come to the WH..
When Rep. King complained, the MSM argued that this was the "political wing of Al Qaeda....err...Gamal Islamiya, not the World Trade Center bombing sub-department, their office is down the hall way and to the left. They also argued that Gamal Islamiya had sort of shrugged their shoulders and given up on their holy Jihad which was ordered by God himself.
Now we discover that might have only been true to the MSM who said, "Don't jump to conclusions".
The final paragraph of the above article that mentions the 2006 video and meeting announcing the merging of AQ and GI. In the video, Abdul Rahman's sons appear and kiss the hand of fellow Egyptian Zawahiri. Also, in 2012, more than 40 days before the release of the video Obama claimed started the riot in Cairo that supposedly inspired the spontaneous protest in Benghazi, the sons of Rahman and the brother of Zawahiri appeared on TV and called for a protest on 9/11 at the US embassy to call for the release of Abdul Rahman.
This was the same request that was delivered in person at the WH.
The result was a military style terrorist attack with accompanying high level American casualties. The US survivors are still being muzzled. A US president allowing AQ to walk in to the WH and ask for one of their terrorist masterminds, the Blind Sheik, to walk. Just to even allow the topic to be discussed? How does that not scream weakness? How does that not invite an attack on our embassies?
So Putin is not the only one waiting in line to oblige the "Kick me" sign.
If as the above article claims that Gamal Islamiya had something to do with this, it makes sense that Obama would like to "Cool the mark" and let the story trickle. If China is releasing intel, you know ours is more extensive.
Believability in your own government is the coin of the realm. If Obama is willing to drag a film maker off the street and openly lie repeatedly about a terror attack in Benghazi, then it is a far easier thing to believe that he would sit on intel for a time under the auspices of discretion, operational security and an ongoing investigation.
When in fact, It's only Obama looking out for Obama. Planes fly, people die, the Obamas sigh.This is clearly a thick and thickening plot. If we're not nervous enough about who's in the White House, we should be now more than ever.
IN ADDITION: SIX OTHER PLANES THAT VANISHED, SOME NEVER TO BE FOUND

Bridget Johnson used to write for The Rocky Mountain News. Back when there was some competition to get the story first and to get it right.
