German TV show depicts 9/11 as Bush plot
By Tom Goeller
THE WASHINGTON TIMES
Published June 9, 2005

WASHINGTON -- A fictional crime drama based on the premise that the Bush administration ordered the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and Washington aired this week on German state television, prompting the Green Party chairman to call for an investigation...


...Sunday night's episode of "Tatort," a popular murder mystery that has been running on state-run ARD-German television for 35 years, revolved around a German woman and a man who was killed in her apartment.

According to the plot, which was seen by approximately 7 million Germans, the dead man had been trained to be one of the September 11 pilots but was left behind, only to be tracked down and killed by CIA or FBI assassins.

The woman, who says in the program that the September 11 attacks were instigated by the Bush family for oil and power, then is targeted, presumably to silence her. The drama concludes with the German detectives accepting the truth of her story as she eludes the U.S. government hit men and escapes to safety in an unnamed Arab country...


"Tatort," which translates to "Crime Scene," is a drama with a rotating cast of actors solving mysteries in weekly episodes set throughout Germany.

The U.S. Embassy in Berlin was not impressed with the latest episode, which seemed to use haunting Arabic music to portray Arabs and Muslims as innocent victims of American aggression.

"Any claim or suggestion that the United States government was behind the 9/11 dissaster is absolutely absurd and not worthy of further comment," said Robert A. Wood, spokesman for the embassy.

A German diplomat in Washington said no one in Germany took the plot seriously because it was "pure fiction." ...

7. Bush Family Evil Empire
Although I like BEEF(Bush Evil Empire Family) better.
Where's the BEEF? In every dark and dirty corner of our military industrial political establishment, and has been since the assassination of Kennedy.

10. Lots of history on back to Prescott Bush trading with the enemy in WW2...
If you just google the members of the Bush family on back to Prescott, you begin to wonder.
When you read reports like George Bush senior, then the CIA operative for Miami, being in Dallas when Kennedy was killed, and operatives of the Cuban Mafia he was controlling being in the crowd when Zapruder took the 8mm pictures of the assassination, then you begin to fear this family is BAD for the country. Evil is an apt term for them.
Do the research, it's there.

12. So was Richard Nixon, "coincidentally".
Kinda strange that coincidence, isn't it?
There's paperwork out there with Bush's name on it as a report to the FBI on the day of the dastardly deed, and pictures that show him in front of the book depository during the investigation of the shooting on Nov 22, 1963, or a guy who looks eerily like Bush.
Like I say, the evidence is out there in HARD COPY, just not very widely circulated. You only have to look.

14. The picture has been circulated here on DU before...
I don't think it's a PhotoShop job either, it shows the front of the depository with lots of cops, and a guy just to the left of the doorway without a hat who has to be the spitting image of GHWB. That, along with the identifiable Cuban operatives he was controlling in the crowd, plus the paperwork the FBI released make a very strong case he was there that day. He claims to not remember where he was that day, but that is patently ridiculous, as I can CERTAINLY remember where I was that day.
Very strong circumstantial evidence that not only was he there on that day, but so were his operatives.
Tin foil hat?
You decide.

18. How can you tell if something has been photoshopped or not?
I always wondered that anyway.

19. It's getting tougher all the time to tell if a picture is altered...
I saw that photo about a year ago, and I've played with images myself in the past, especially black and white ones like this picture. You have to look at the overall "feel" of the photo and its elements and light and shadows. That photo looked real to me, given the placement of GHWB and his shadows and light and dark areas of the total picture and his placement in it.

28. yeah, i would be hard pressed to definitively state that it was poppy..
I would agree that there is a vague resemblance, but that's about it. I find it odd that Poppy doesn't recall where he was that day, frankly. It happened a couple of years before my day, but evidently it was most memorable in that a majority of people recall exactly where they were when they heard the news, kinda like 9/11.

31.  I was 17 years old at that time..
And I can remember it exactly as I did the space shuttle explosion, both of them, as well as 9/11. I certainly remember where I was and how I heard about it.
For any adult of the time to claim they do not remember where they were is an out and out lie or a cover-up.

15. Tons of info. Look it up on this site or google it...easy to find
They have been war profiteers since the civil war. Prescott had his money taken away under the Trading with the Enemies Act in 1942 for financing the number one steel industry, Theisson Steel, who made most of the Nazi's weaponry, 10 months AFTER we went to war with Germany. My Dad was fighting the Germans and Prescott Bush was financing them. They also financed the construction of Auschwitz.

21. Are you looking to build up post numbers?
Or is it really that difficult to comprehend?
Bush+Evil+Empire+Family, maybe toss in a little or a lot of Oil to grease the skids too.

30. Thanks for the link
but I don't see any citations here. No copies of memos or papers. I know that there were papers recently released from around that time concerning Cuba and we can actually see the typed pages.

Not that I don't like the idea, but who is Paul Kangas?

32. Ok, this is supposed to be from "The Nation"
"... A memo from FBI head J. Edgar Hoover was found, stating that, "Mr. George Bush of the CIA had been briefed on November 23rd, 1963 about the reaction of anti-Castro Cuban exiles in Miami to the assassination of President Kennedy. (Source: The Nation, 8/13/88)."
