How The CIA Funds Terrorism In Plain Sight

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


21st Century Wire says…

The CIA will claim that this is simply an unintended consequence, but is that really the case? You decide.

Back in 2010, Afghan officials came to an agreement to free one of their diplomats that had been captured and was being held hostage by al Qaeda. The deal involved the exchange of the diplomat for $5 million.

Afghan officials were able to make use of covert funds, which were quite literally bags of cash, the CIA was delivering directly to the Presidential Palace in Kabul, in their attempt to seek and maintain influence. $1 Million worth of this covert cash was siphoned off to the ransom fund. The remaining $4 million was ‘provided from other countries’.

With Saudi Arabia funding al Qaeda in Yemen, it is possible their ‘terrorism funds’ were tapped into to make up the deficit.

Terror masterminds or useful idiots?

The ideas presented above suggest that al Qaeda getting the CIA’s money was done without their knowledge and was an unintended consequence of funnelling cash-for-influence into Kabul. Another analytical option also exists – money laundering.

It is entirely possible that the CIA knew exactly what this money was going to be used for. Would they not have had the entire Presidential Palace under constant surveillance? Surely, the CIA would want to know that their cash was indeed buying the influence they so desired. It is also ridiculous to think that the agency would not have known about the situation with the Afghan diplomat; they are paid to know such things.

Therefore, could the CIA have been laundering money to al Qaeda? Sending cash to the Afghan government would probably qualify as at least somewhat legal, meaning it would be possible to claim ignorance when it comes to that cash finding its way to al Qaeda – “How could we possibly know they would use it like that?!” In the previous paragraph we just laid out exactly how that would be possible.

Langley is home to an agency whose sole purpose is to deceive.

Were double agents apart of the cell receiving the ransom money? Were the funds used to finance terrorism which led to the deaths of Americans? How do we attempt to lay blame when such a complex web of ties and backhand deals are going on?

We would recommend you check out this post from October of last year to come to an understanding of exactly how such money laundering occurs.

C.I.A. Cash Ended Up in Coffers of Al Qaeda

New York Times

WASHINGTON — In the spring of 2010, Afghan officials struck a deal to free an Afghan diplomat held hostage by Al Qaeda. But the price was steep — $5 million — and senior security officials were scrambling to come up with the money.

They first turned to a secret fund that theCentral Intelligence Agency bankrolled with monthly cash deliveries to the presidential palace in Kabul, according to several Afghan officials involved in the episode. The Afghan government, they said, had already squirreled away about $1 million from that fund.

Within weeks, that money and $4 million more provided from other countries was handed over to Al Qaeda, replenishing its coffers after a relentless C.I.A. campaign of drone strikes in Pakistan had decimated the militant network’s upper ranks.

      Re; CIA funding Terrorism.
      As with most headline about the US gov-CIA-NSA——, is their some one who is actually surprised about this CIA funding Terrorist, [that would be about as stupid as being surprised that the Bush's Sr-Jr, are drug lords]?
      Back before the Magical 9-11, (the god tool of the US gov when it comes to upsurging powers denied by the constitution from stupid people), I set before C-Span on TV watching a congressional hearing on threats to the US, their was an assistant director of the CIA testifying and was ask directly by a member of the congressional committee about a group called Al Qaeda, [maybe you remember the Al Qaeda], who according to the US gov-CIA, Al Qaeda was the greatest threat to the US, to the world ever to exist, [well any after the Russians, the Chinese, the Vietnamese, Fairies and the rest of the US gov the Sky is Falling Scams and then to that was before the US gov created ISIS], but back to the point, before 9-11, before the Trash of the US congress this Assistant Director of the CIA, on C-Span was ask under Oath about this Al Qaeda and told congress that their was no reason to worry about Al Qaeda as it was just a name made up by the CIA to simply create a List of all Muslim Group in the World, it was not an Actual Group, not a Terrorist Group and not a Threat in any form as it did not exist!
      Now I’m not the only person who was watching C-Span that day (but seem to be the only one with a memory), I went into C-Span after the US gov Song and Dance of Al Qaeda-Al Qaeda-Al Qaeda, was ringing in my head over and over and discovered that that C-Span coverage was wiped from the C-Span Online Records, I went online looking for some one who had recorded it and put in online, *And Gee is was online a lot of places but all with Broken Connections, or Porn coming up* I’ve never been able to find a working copy, (Wonder Why, who could have Wiped it and why would they do that).
      As to the US Gov and the CIA funding Terrorist, who could get that Idea, must be some Nut Bag with the History of the US gov and the CIA being so very Clean, their History being that they are so Honest and only there to Protect us and our Shopping Centers, very simply the US gov, the CIA don’t simply Support Terrorist, They Are The Terrorist that you need to be afraid of day to day.
