Former Justice Department prosecutor and terrorism expert John Loftus said on U.S. television Friday that Haroon Rashid Aswat, believed to be the mastermind of the recent London bombings, is an agent of British intelligence organization MI6, formally known as the Secret Intelligence Service.

According to Infowars, Aswat was arrested in Pakistan and released within 24 hours, apparently at the prompting of intelligence agencies.

This information is startling and again highlights how Al Qaeda exists as an organized body only where the intelligence services have created, funded and employed it. Loftus points out that several weeks before the London Bombings, Aswat was again located by the South African Intel agency but again allowed to slip away, this time to London:

“He was a British intelligence plant. So all of a sudden he disappears. He’s in South Africa. We think he’s dead; we don’t know he’s down there. Last month the South African Secret Service come across the guy. He’s alive…the Brits know that the CIA wants to get a hold of Haroon. So what happens? He takes off again, goes right to London. He isn’t arrested when he lands, he isn’t arrested when he leaves… He’s on the watch list. The only reason he could get away with that was if he was working for British intelligence. He was a wanted man.” — Infowars

The next obvious questions are: Why would MI6 want to protect the London bombing mastermind? What role did MI6 play in the London bombings? Or, has MI6 been played the fool?

Aswat has been arrested in Zambia, and authorities there intend to send him back to Britain. Watch what happens to him after that, and those questions will be answered.
