Man "linked to Atta" plans flying school in South Pacific

This story doesn't say how Wolfgang Bohringer has been linked to Atta. "Report: FBI raises terror alarm about South Pacific flying school," from The Associated Press, with thanks to Jeffrey Imm:

CANBERRA, Australia: U.S. authorities have raised an alarm over a plan by a German citizen — linked to the Sept. 11 terror attacks — to build a flying school in a remote South Pacific island nation, a news report said Wednesday.

Wolfgang Bohringer has been linked to Mohamed Atta, the lead hijacker in the attacks on New York and Washington in 2001. The German arrived by yacht in Kiribati a year ago with plans to build a flying school, but has since left the far-flung archipelago, Australian Broadcasting Corp. radio reported.

The island where the school was planned was among the country's closest to the U.S. island state of Hawaii, the report said.

Kiribati's President Anote Tong said the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation had warned him that it was suspicious of Bohringer, the ABC said.

Tong said the FBI also warned him that small countries like Kiribati, whose 94,000 people live on 33 atolls scattered 4,000 kilometers (1,400 miles) along the equator, could be vulnerable to terrorists, the ABC reported.

"I think it demonstrates how vulnerable small countries can be," Tong told the ABC.

"We confess we don't have the resources to be able to monitor everything and everybody that goes through our system, but it's made us a lot more alert, I think," he said.

Man, this jihadist scum will go to the farthest reaches of the world to carry out its evil. No doubt these crazies will turn up in Antarctica next.

I had only heard of the Atta/Wolfgang Bohringer connection an a radio program called "For The Record" josted by Dave Emory. Not a show I make a habit of listening to, just on my local station.

I have some reservations about Dave Emory, but he does raise very interesting questions.

Emory was the first I person I ever heard discuss the Nazi/Muslim Brotherhood/Al Queda connection and John Loftus as well as this topic in depth.


Here is one transcript about Atta/Wolfgang:

Sounds like that venture would have been a good candidate for a visit by a U.S.M.C. landing party.

Yes i spotted this in the Australian and my curiosity was aroused.
Why is this guy carrying millions of dollars in cah on his boat?
Was Mohamed Atta involved in drug smuggling runs to South America?
Were these operations allowed to proceed by the CIA? as covert information gathering operations.
What are laa these Germans and Dutch in Florida doing around Atta.?
Were there several Attas created to confuse authorities?
Why was Dekker's dodgy flying school given the seal of approval by the FAA.

4000 Kilometres is 2500 miles. I hate sloppiness. If they cannot get the conversion right, what else id wrong with the article?

Please ignore the irony of my misspelling of "is"

In the same way that we are told to believe that Oswald "acted alone", James Earl Ray 'acted alone', Sirhan Sirhan 'acted alone', we are told bow also to believe that the 19 hijackers 'acted alone' without US associations.
All these "Alone" coincidences are stacking up.

I can't believe this finally broke beyond www.madcowprod.com.

Some basic facts:
- Bohringer appears to be part of the alliance between old nazi money and Islamic terror. It has been alleged that he is part of the Flying Club of Munich, apparently a nazi group going back to the 1920s.

-Atta and Bohringer were described as inseperable by Atta's American girlfriend, who said they called each other "brother".

-Atta was brought to Germany by a "scholarship program" called the Carl Duisberg Society. Duisberg was the German inventor of poison gas and helped bring Bayer into the IG Farben chemical cartel. The Carl Duisberg Society also runs a program with the crooked Crown/Alfa bank which ties together folks like Marc Rich, the Russian mob, the Food-For-Oil scam, and various other scandals. Alfa/Crown is administered in Liechtenstein by Norbert Seeger, a front man for Prince Hans Adam and Prince Alois, the rulers of that country (after revoking democracy!) and heirs to the Habsburg dynasty and descendants of Archduke Ferdinand!

What would these old Central European royalist/industrialist types have in common with Islamists? Simple: hatred of Jews, Britain, and America!
