Existential Forensics

Narrowly averted air disaster?

Or Propaganda Terror Staged by Existential Criminals.

ITEM S* => Abdulmutallab.<= 23 yoa …alleged attempt TO BLOW UP NWA Flight 253

Timing: 12.25.’09 (+7 days = 1.1.10) Spanning Christmas and New Years by terror

Strategic significance: Yemen  foreign and domestic threat (suddenly descends)

Symbolism: Father previously denounced son to FBI (big propaganda issue; as if to protect family name from jihad shame/retaliation, implying advance knowledge; echoing Dan Brown’s The Lost Symbol plot) The family is linked to the UK.

Accomplices: a. escorted onto plane w/o passport at Amsterdam by well dressed man.
b. man reportedly videotaped entire flight, including flame scene. c. second man seen taken from Detroit airport in handcuffs; FBI denies arresting a second man.

Communicability: the “underwear bomber” touch. (cf. metaphysical metaphor*)

The impact of this event on the news cycles, bridging the duration from Christmas to New Years; plus its enormous – and unchallenged -- strategic significance, and other considerations; justifies the conclusion it is a staged propaganda stunt, planned and executed down to the last meticulous detail. A Rogue Sting of possible accomplices involved? or a Roguestein operation pulled on inner adversarial factions inside counter-terrorism agencies.
