September 11 Commission Report - Gnostic Liberation Front

There are relatively reliable sources suggesting Atta received funding from the Syrian
intelligence organization. (It is of worth to note that Syria supported the US with troops
during the first Gulf War.)
Finally, this report should mention that Atta may have also been funded, while in Europe,
by a joint U.S.-German intelligence operation. In coming to Germany, Atta was funded
with a scholarship and employed as a tutor by the Carl Duisberg Gesellschaft.
“The organization that apparently sponsored Atta’s travels was the Carl Duisberg Gesellschaft (its
American component is the Carl Duisberg Society)—named for one of the principal figures in the
founding of I.G. Farben. “News that Mohamed Atta had been on the payroll of an elite international
program known as the ‘Congress-Bundestag Program first surfaced a month after the 9/11 attack in a
brief seven-line report by German newspaper Frankfurter Algemeine Zeitung on 10/18/2001 under the
headline ‘Atta was Tutor for Scholarship Holders… Atta had therefore been on the payroll of a joint
U.S.-German government program was concealed by the newspaper through the simple expedient of
neglecting to mention that the ‘Carl Duisberg Gesellschaft’ was merely a private entity set up to
administer an official U.S. and German government initiative,” (For the Record, #408)
Subsequent Internet reports linked the Carl Duisberg Society to administration by the
U.S. Information Agency, but this had not been verified by any government
documentation. Most of the funding for the U.S. program seems to come from Robert
Bosh Stiftung GmbH, on whose board sits Dr. jur. Ulrich Cartellieri (Deutschebank) and
Dr. jur. Peter Adolff (Allianz). Alpha Bank, represented in the US by ex-Bush
administrators Lanny Griffith and Ed Rogers, also funds a fellowship for Carl Duisberg
Gesellschaft. [For The Record#573, Alfa Males—One Helluva Conspiracy Theory, Part
II, Recorded on 10/15/2006.] The more interesting aspect of Carl Duisberg Gesellschaft
is that it’s Managing Director is Bernd Schleich, the same individual who is Managing
Director of InWEnt (Internationale Weiterbildung und Entwicklung. If one investigates
the activites and research of InWEnt, it appears to be a commercial intelligence operation
that does studies on such matters as money-laundering, weapons trades, drug smuggling,
anthrax control in such places as South America, Central Asia and Africa. Atta’s
involvement with Carl Duisberg Gesellschaft may be co-incidental but in light of the
revelations about Syrian and Pakistani intelligence connections, Atta’s links to German
and US intelligence are probably real, and not coincidental.
There seems to be little dispute that Mohammed Atta was connected to both the Pakistani
Intelligence and the Syrian Intelligence, and received funding from both. In both cases,
when this was reported to US investigators, the investigation on those sources of funding
came to a grinding halt under the argument of ‘national security.’ The government
leaders of Pakistan and Syria, in the pre- and post-9/11 world, have demonstrated
themselves to be supportive of US counter-terrorist efforts, and their intelligence
organizations have provided some, but probably less than total disclosure. However, the
rank-and-file of the intelligence and military organizations in both Syria and Pakistan
demonstrate loyalties to Muslim groups that have established themselves as de facto
governments in Lebanon and Afghanistan, and are far more religiously conservative than
are their top government leaders. Is it possible that both Syria and Pakistan intelligence
organizations were taking direction from a higher authority, working with rogue Mossad
direction, while their rank-and-file were committed to more nationalistic, Islamic values?
