Report: French DGSE Find Islamic Jihadists Were Onboard Air France Flight 447

UPDATE 14 June 2009: In continuing to review OSINT reports on the destruction of Air France Flight 447 I came across some additional information I'd not seen before and definitely think needs wider dissemination to all readers.

The WeatherGraphics.Com website contains a very detailed and update laden meteorological analysis by Tim Vasquez. In the last update of 9 June Vasquez cites an E-mail from a NASA TRMM affiliated scientist which reports that a 90-second data collection pass of the TRMM satellite detected no lightning within the weather system that AF FLT 447 passed through. The TRMM data concurred with data from the World Wide Lightning Location Network (WWLLN) for that same date, time and location.

The NowPublic.Com website has a nearly complete (204 of 228) AF FLT 447 passenger and crew manifest with nationalities. Within this list are eight Islamic names. Six are from Lebanon, two others are from Morocco. The NEINblog will assume for the moment that from among these eight names were found the two whom the French DGSE found to "highly significant" names noted in "highly classified" documents in connection to known Islamic jihadist threats to France.

UPDATED 13 June 2009: I just noticed a potential new twist has been added to this Air France Flight 447 flying terrorist angle by DEBKAfile. Interesting if not plausible IMHO.

"DEBKAfile's counter-terror sources report that in the last few months Paris has received several threats of an impending al Qaeda mega-attack against a French city on the lines of the hijacked airliners which struck New York and Washington on September 11, 2001. The jihadis were bent on punishing president Nicolas Sarkozy for posting fresh French troops to Afghanistan.

Should further investigations connect the two Muslim passengers to this conspiracy, it would go far to indicate that the Air France flight was destined to crash over Paris - except that the plan misfired and the plane came down sooner than planned over the Atlantic."

An interesting note was reported a day or so ago by SeattlePI.Com about a CNN Special Intesitgations Unit report by Scott Bronstein. So much for the fringe lunatic theorems who comments I will always decline to post to this blog.

Airlines confirmed that at least a dozen aircraft departed roughly at the same time and traversed approximately the same route, but did not report problematic weather conditions. This has led some aviation experts to suggest that technical problems on the airplane might be the main cause of the crash, though they may have combined with weather conditions to create serious problems.

10 June 2009: According to a SkyNews report issued today a team of French secret service agents from the DGSE (Direction Générale de la Sécurité Extérieure), the equivilent of America’s CIA and the UK’s MI6, have determined that two individuals with names matching thoseof known Islamic terrorists who are detailed within highly classified documents listing Islamic Jihadists considered to be direct threats to the French Republic were booked as passengers onboard the destroyed Air France Flight 447 from Rio de Janiero, Brazil to Paris on 31 May. According to the SkyNews report, “A source working for the French security services told Paris weekly L’Express that the link was “highly significant”.
