The industrial-financial-military-­media system is who really governs the world. An organization based on the concepts of the italian mafia, nazis, bolsheviks and catholicism. Predators, murderers and immorals have a guaranteed place in this institution.

What to expect from a people whose president was assassinated by your own secret service because he began to speak the truth over america? What to expect from a people who did nothing about it? America is a nation of mobsters? John Fitzgerald Kennedy was the last man in america. Today america is the land of the assassins and every kind bad people. All Americans and their gangsters in others nations deserve the fires of hell.

Simple solution put the blame on Bin Laden by the WTC destruction (An excuse to invade and plunder Iraq oil). The U.S. people did nothing for over 10 years to elucidate and more sinks in the mire of lies created from this event. Obama promised during his campaign that he would investigate strictly the attack on the WTC and he did not fulfill its promise. Was really Bin Laden the responsible for the attack on the WTC in 09/11/2001? And if not, then who are the terrorists in this story?
