It’s Official: US Funding Al Qaeda and Taliban

At Least 43 Reconstruction Contracts Going to Terrorist Groups
It’s extremely ironic for the US State Department to be issuing travel alerts
for US citizens in the Middle East and North Africa the same week we
learn that the Pentagon is contracting with Al Qaeda and Taliban
supporters to carry out Afghan reconstruction projects.
Tony Capaccio of Bloomberg News
cites a quarterly report to Congress by Special Inspector for Afghan
Reconstruction John Sopko.
The report reveals Sopko asked the US Army
Suspension and Disbarment office to cancel 43 contracts to known Al
Qaeda and Taliban supporters. They refused. The reason? The Suspension
and Disbarment Office claims it would violate Al Qaeda and Taliban “due
process rights.”
Curious, isn’t it? Official terrorist groups have
due process rights, but not whistleblowers, Guantanamo detainees, or
ordinary Americans subject to continual surveillance by NSA.
The intelligence community has been quietly leaking evidence for more than a decade that the US is secretly funding Al Qaeda to promote political instability (and justify continued military intervention) in the Middle East. In the last two years the CIA has been caught red-handed funding and training Al Qaeda militants in Libya and Syria.
Based on Sopko’s report, Pentagon support for Al Qaeda and the Taliban is official as of August 1.
Let me see if I can think this through: the Pentagon is giving Al Qaeda and the Taliban funding, even though Al Qaeda and the Taliban are planning to carry out attacks on US citizens. How can this be happening? It would appear the US government is at war with their own people. (VN: that fact is very old news, our "foreign occupied" government has been at war with us since just before 9-11 which was the official start of that war against us and its been going on ever since.)
The 236 page quarterly report Sopko submitted to
Congress also raises grave concerns about Obama’s request for $10.7
billion in 2014 for Afghan reconstruction projects. All would be
carrying out by civilian contractors, of which 30-40% would be local
Afghan businesses.
Sopko argues the Pentagon already fails abysmally
in monitoring an existing $32 million program to install bars or
gratings in culverts to prevent insurgents from planting roadside bombs
in them.
He thinks at bare minimum the Department of Defense should know
how many contracts they have issued under this program. They don’t. Thus
it seems pretty obvious they aren’t vetting the contractors, much less
monitoring where the money is going.
