CIA Never Helped Osama

And you don't trust the author of Ghost Wars, who researched this issue to death.

And you don't trust Milt Bearden, who ran the CIA's Afghan operations and made clear that the CIA helped non-Arabs (because there were plenty of them) and the Saudis helped the Arab fighters (who were fighting for religious reasons).

And you don't trust Ayman al-Zawahiri, who was fighting the Russians and confirmed that the "Afghan Arabs" did not receive any U.S. funding during the war in Afghanistan (because they were receiving funds from Arab states).

And you don't trust Abdullah Anas, an Algerian who was one of the foremost Afghan Arab organizers, and confirmed that the CIA had no relationship with the Afghan Arabs.

And you don't trust Brigadier Mohammad Yousaf was in charge of the Afghan Bureau of Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), confirmed how America and the Saudis funded the fighters separately.

And you don't trust Marc Sageman, author of Understanding Terror Networks, whose research confirmed the CIA had ZERO contact with the Arabs, who had their own money.

And you don't trust the CIA which categorically denied that it ever had contact with Osama.

And you don't trust the U.S. State Department that has discredited this lie.

But you got a former British Foreign Secretary who had ZERO direct knowledge of anything that went on and did NOT run any intelligence operations and hasn't put forward one scrap of evidence to back up his claim.
