Cossiga: van Gladio tot 9/11

De voormalige Italiaanse president Francesco Cossiga heeft eind november in een interview met de gerespecteerde Italiaanse krant Corriere della Sera gezegd dat de Amerikaanse en Europese inlichtingendiensten maar al te goed weten dat de terreuraanslagen van 11 september 2001 het werk zijn geweest van de CIA en van de Mossad.:

Former Italian President and the man who revealed the existence of Operation Gladio Francesco Cossiga has gone public on 9/11, telling Italy's most respected newspaper that the attacks were run by the CIA and Mossad and that this was common knowledge amongst global intelligence agencies.Cossiga was elected President of the Italian Senate in July 1983 before winning a landslide 1985 election to become President of the country in 1985.

Cossiga gained respect from opposition parties as one of a rare breed - an honest politician - and led the country for seven years until April 1992. Cossiga's tendency to be outspoken upset the Italian political establishment and he was forced to resign after revealing the existence of, and his part in setting up, Operation Gladio - a rogue intelligence network under NATO auspices that carried out bombings across Europe in the 60's, 70's and 80's.

In March 2001, Gladio agent Vincenzo Vinciguerra stated, in sworn testimony, "You had to attack civilians, the people, women, children, innocent people, unknown people far removed from any political game. The reason was quite simple: to force ... the public to turn to the state to ask for greater security." (Bende Van Nijvel, anyone?)
