Bush Sr., 9/11, and the Brady Bonds: How $240 Billion in Fraud Was Covered Up? A Financial Crime Hidden in Plain Sight. Explore the hidden financial scandal behind 9/11. Did $240 billion in fraudulent Brady Bonds, tied to Bush Sr., vanish with Cantor Fitzgerald in the Twin Towers? Whistleblowers allege cover-ups, CIA black ops, and the murder of a U.S. colonel.

The Day Before Everything Changed
September 11, 2001 is remembered for collapsing towers and lives lost. But hidden beneath the smoke and dust lies another story—one less about terror cells and more about banking cells. According to leaked intelligence files, whistleblower testimony, and buried financial documents, $240 billion in fraudulent Brady Bonds—crafted in 1991 under George H. W. Bush—were scheduled to come due on September 12, 2001.

The records of these bonds, allegedly underwritten and held by Cantor Fitzgerald, went up in flames when the firm’s offices on floors 101–105 of the North Tower were obliterated. Coincidence? Or was 9/11 not just a terrorist attack, but also the greatest financial cover-up in modern history?

The Birth of the Brady Bond Fraud
In 1991, ten-year Brady Bonds—named after Treasury Secretary Nicholas Brady—were created as part of Bush Sr.’s economic policy. On paper, they were a way to stabilize foreign debt markets. Behind the curtain, whistleblowers allege, counterfeit debt instruments were forged using unauthorized collateral, faked signatures, and even stolen gold bullion.

The scheme’s fingerprints include former Secretary of State James Baker III and Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan. Their alleged goal: launder billions through CIA-linked accounts, recycle narcotics money, and line the coffers of what insiders call “White House crime families.”

A Colonel Who Knew Too Much
The story turns bloody with Colonel Russell Hermann, a decorated military officer tasked with overseeing CIA bank accounts. According to his widow, V. K. Durham, Hermann discovered the fraudulent use of her family trust as collateral in these transactions.

When he refused to sign off, he was tortured—burned, beaten, poisoned—and ultimately killed in 1994. Three days before his death, Durham says, Bush Sr., Greenspan, and Oliver North visited Hermann in his hospital room, pressuring him to legitimize the illicit accounts. He refused, allegedly flinging a handful of excrement at Bush Sr. with the words, “Go to hell.” Days later, he was dead.

The Perfect Disguise: 9/11
Fast forward ten years. Those very Brady Bonds matured on September 12, 2001. Payment would have exposed trillions in stolen U.S. Treasury funds and the global network that siphoned them. Instead, Cantor Fitzgerald—the firm holding the records—was wiped out in the North Tower attacks, along with 658 employees.

Meanwhile, at the Pentagon, the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI)—where investigators were probing the same financial fraud—was also destroyed in the strike. Key files and personnel vanished in fire and rubble. Two targets. Same day. Same evidence trail.

Boxes of Cash and Black Ops
Leaked memos reveal that just weeks after 9/11, crates of U.S. currency were moved out of the Philippines and funneled into European and American accounts tied to Bush family operatives. Former Somalian Ambassador to Switzerland Leo Wanta wrote directly to Vice President Dick Cheney, warning that “the family wants their boxes”—a cryptic reference to illicit funds moved for covert purposes.

Why was Cheney in the loop? And why did neither he nor Condoleezza Rice nor George W. Bush halt the transactions?

Operation Code Angel
Suppressed footage of the Twin Towers collapsing, according to whistleblowers, points to controlled demolition. Intelligence insiders claim the operation was code-named “Code Angel” (Tripod II)—a Department of Justice “war game” exercise involving FEMA and reportedly overseen by New York Police Commissioner Bernard Kerik, Rudolph Giuliani’s right-hand man.

If true, 9/11 wasn’t just a terrorist strike but a dual-purpose operation: one to terrify a nation into endless war, and another to erase the paper trail of financial terrorism.

Blackmail, Pedophilia, and Congressional Silence
The exposé doesn’t stop at money. Insiders allege that Operation Brownstone—a CIA-led pedophilia ring—was used to compromise congressmen and judges, ensuring silence. Judges tossed out FBI translator Sibel Edmonds’ testimony linking top U.S. politicians to drug money laundering and terror finance. Congressional aides admitted they were ordered “from the top” not to investigate V. K. Durham’s evidence.

In the words of Durham: “They strung [Russell Hermann] up on meat hooks. They’ll do it again to any intelligence guys walking around now if they don’t stop these criminals.”

A Pattern of Crimes
From Iran-Contra to the Savings & Loan scandal, from Mena, Arkansas drug drops to 9/11, the pattern is chilling. Whistleblowers like Stewart Webb point to American International Group (AIG), Goldman Sachs, and Greenberg-Traurig law firm as laundering channels for narcotics money and black-ops funding.

The same networks, they claim, financed both 9/11 and other black-flag operations—while Congress and the courts looked the other way.

Who Will Guard the Guards?
The accusations are staggering: that 9/11 doubled as a financial cover-up, erasing the Bush family’s obligations on billions in counterfeit bonds; that a decorated colonel was murdered for knowing too much; and that America’s own institutions obstructed justice to protect insiders.

As Tom Flocco wrote: “Who will guard the guards?” Until ordinary citizens demand answers—encircling not just the White House but the halls of Congress with metaphorical handcuffs—the question remains unanswered.

Jewish Anti-Zionism and the Christian Witness: Exposing the False Equation. Jewish voices and Christian theology unite in exposing Zionism as apartheid and colonialism—not Judaism. Anti-Zionism is not antisemitism, but a unified call for justice in Palestine.

Breaking the False Equation

The contemporary debate over Israel and Palestine is too often framed as if any critique of Zionism is necessarily an attack on Judaism. This conflation has been weaponized: to oppose Zionism is to be branded antisemitic. Yet a recent declaration from the First Jewish Anti-Zionist Congress shatters this myth. It insists that anti-Zionism is not antisemitism. Rather, Zionism itself stands condemned as a racist political ideology that endangers Jews and Palestinians alike.

As a follower of Jesus Christ, though not ethnically Jewish, I approach this issue as one who has been grafted into the true Israel of God (Rom. 9:6–8). The teachings of Christ affirm the equality of all peoples and expose the heresy of racial supremacy masquerading as divine election. Zionism, far from representing biblical faith, is an ideology of conquest, elitism, and apartheid. It violates God’s commandments and the heart of Christ’s gospel.

The First Jewish Anti-Zionist Congress: A Voice Against Colonization

The declaration of the Jewish Anti-Zionist Congress begins with a moral thunderclap: the unfolding violence in Palestine, it states, is “genocide against the Palestinian people committed by Zionism in partnership with the West.” This charge is not rhetorical exaggeration but sober assessment. Entire populations are displaced, bombarded, and deprived of rights under the logic of a colonial state that privileges one group above another.

The Congress asserts:

• Zionism is not Judaism. Since its origins in the late nineteenth century, Zionism has claimed to speak for all Jews, even as large Jewish communities opposed it. From religious sects such as Neturei Karta to secular Bundist movements, resistance has always existed.

• Zionism places Jews in danger. By committing atrocities in the name of Jews, Zionism stirs global resentment and hatred, endangering Jewish communities rather than safeguarding them.

• Zionism replicates racist logic. By presenting Jews as a chosen race with superior entitlement to land, Zionism mirrors the very racial supremacism that undergirded antisemitism.

The Congress concludes with an uncompromising commitment: “Together we will join forces…in liberating Palestine, and building a democratic, just and equal society for all.”

Anti-Zionism Is Not Antisemitism

The Congress’ declaration exposes a crucial distinction: Zionism is a political ideology, while Judaism is a faith, culture, and peoplehood. To oppose the former is not to deny or hate the latter.

Equating Zionism with Judaism serves two destructive purposes:

1. It shields Zionism from critique by tarring opponents with the brush of antisemitism.

2. It endangers Jews worldwide by making them scapegoats for the crimes of a colonial project they may not support.

To untangle this false equivalence is a matter of justice for Palestinians and Jews.

Apartheid by Another Name

In the modern world, to establish a state in which two groups live under radically different laws, rights, and access to resources is the very definition of apartheid. South Africa once institutionalized such a system, and it was eventually dismantled through global resistance. Today, Israel’s policies toward Palestinians—land seizures, checkpoints, home demolitions, restricted mobility, and unequal citizenship laws—mirror that same structure of domination.

As Desmond Tutu, South Africa’s archbishop and moral leader, observed: *“I have witnessed the humiliation of Palestinians at checkpoints and roadblocks, suffering like we experienced when young white police officers prevented us from moving about.”*¹

Zionism’s defenders may appeal to ancient claims of land ownership, but such appeals cannot justify present injustice. If every nation today reclaimed lands occupied by ancestors millennia ago, the world would collapse into endless wars. Scripture itself warns against theft: “Thou shalt not steal” (Exod. 20:15, AKJV).

Christ’s Witness: Equality in God’s Kingdom

The teachings of Jesus Christ strike at the very root of Zionism’s elitist claims. Christ’s gospel is radically inclusive:

• “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus” (Gal. 3:28, AKJV).

• “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16, AKJV).

These verses proclaim a universal invitation to salvation. No race, tribe, or nation holds monopoly on divine favor.

Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount defines God’s chosen people not as conquerors or colonizers but as the meek, merciful, and pure in heart:

“Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth… Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.” (Matt. 5:5, 9, AKJV)

Thus, biblically, chosenness is defined by humility and righteousness, not land grabs or ethnic privilege.

The Historical Context: From Herzl to 1948

Theodor Herzl’s First Zionist Congress in 1897 launched a movement that sought a Jewish homeland in Palestine. At the time, the land was overwhelmingly inhabited by Arabs—90 percent Muslim and Christian, with a small Jewish minority.²

British imperial strategy during World War I led to the Balfour Declaration (1917), promising support for a “national home for the Jewish people” in Palestine, even as the same land was promised to Arabs for their independence. This duplicity sowed the seeds of ongoing conflict.

By 1948, the establishment of Israel was accompanied by the Nakba (“catastrophe”), during which over 700,000 Palestinians were expelled or fled from their homes.³ The cycle of dispossession has continued ever since, underpinned by a Zionist ideology that elevates one people’s claims above another’s humanity.

Zionism as Betrayal of Jewish Ethics

Far from being the guardian of Judaism, Zionism betrays its core values. Jewish tradition commands justice for the stranger and protection for the oppressed: “Love ye therefore the stranger: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt” (Deut. 10:19, AKJV).

By enshrining domination, dispossession, and ethnic privilege, Zionism inverts this mandate. Instead of embodying God’s covenantal love, it mirrors the oppressors from whom Israel was once delivered.

The Prophetic Dimension

The prophets of Israel consistently condemned false shepherds who abused their people in God’s name. Jeremiah warned: “Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the LORD” (Jer. 23:1, AKJV).

Zionism, which claims divine legitimacy while committing acts of dispossession, stands under this same prophetic judgment. God’s true people are those who pursue justice, mercy, and peace—not those who perpetuate violence and call it righteousness.

Conclusion: Toward a Just Peace

The Jewish Anti-Zionist Congress affirms what Christians, Muslims, and people of conscience worldwide must recognize: Zionism is not Judaism, and to oppose Zionism is not antisemitism. Zionism is a political project rooted in racial supremacy, colonial conquest, and apartheid.

Christians must stand with all who resist oppression, joining Jewish anti-Zionists and Palestinians alike in declaring: “Not in Our Name.”

For the followers of Jesus Christ, the choice is clear. To align with Zionism is to betray His gospel of love and equality. To oppose Zionism is to affirm the Beatitudes, the Ten Commandments, and the prophetic witness. God’s chosen are not those who seize land by force but those who hunger and thirst after righteousness.
