Feds Confirm Mumbai Plotter Trained With Terrorists While Working for DEA
Oct. 16, 2010 - Federal officials acknowledged Saturday that David Coleman Headley, the U.S. businessman who confessed to being a terrorist scout in the 2008 Mumbai attacks, was working as a DEA informant while he was training with terrorists in Pakistan.
Federal officials, who spoke only only on background because of the sensitivity of the Headley case, also said they suspect a link between Headley and the al Qaeda figures whose activities have sparked recent terror threats against Europe.
The revelations came after a report Friday [1] by ProPublica and the Washington Post that the FBI had been warned about Headley’s terrorist ties three years before the Mumbai attacks. Headley wasn’t arrested until 11 months after the attack. {read rest}

Are Americans still believing that bs?
Europeans aren't. European intelligence agencies and governments denounced this piece of fraud of the U.S. very immediately, but I guess it takes a while for news to reach most Americans so they still believe the lying government, of the U.S. I think the Pakistani government also immediately or just as quickly denounced this false threat, but Europeans definitely did and this was very fast.
I posted links for one or more articles about that topic very recently here last week or the week before, but am not sure what article, here, the post was made for. But I just found a saved bookmark for the original article.
"Barack Obama accused of exaggerating terror threat for political gain"

Thomas de Maizière refers to the so-called threat as "hypothetical". If we look at it that way, which we should, then Americans should understand. Hypothetical threats are the kinds of threats most Americans speak and write about most of the time. Every time someone writes about the wars putting U.S. national security in danger, so the U.S. itself, f.e., it's a hypothetical threat or danger, and isn't one I give much weight to or for; because I don't perceive that threat as very serious. What I do see for threat is not for what might be done to the U.S., but what might be done to U.S. forces in the war zones, as well as Americans working in American facilities or American-controlled facilities in countries where these Americans would be much more likely to become victims of the criminal and phony war on terrorism. If they were attacked by Afghan or Pakistani fighters, then they would be victims of this criminal and phony war far more than victims of resistance actions. The latter would only be the immediate and direct cause of the deaths, but it'd happened only because of this criminal and phony war on terrorism. So the latter would be the real cause of the deaths of American personnel hit by resistance fighters.
The same thing is true for foreign forces in Afghanistan being killed by resistance fighters. The real cause of these soldiers being killed is criminal, hegemon, lying, imperial, and so on, Washington and NATO Europe.
Anyway, this latest false alert from Washington about supposed terrorist threats against Europe is one in a long series of false terror alerts.
And there was an artile recently about Tom Ridge, who I think formerly was the Director of Homeland Security during the first and/or second terms of the Bush administration. He was exposing the false terror alerts that he had been pressured, by the White House, to issue; many times.

This article has all of the supporting or source links it could need and more; and I'll add some bold typefacing for emphasizing or highlighting a few parts of the quoted article.
Now that is an excellent article and analysis.
Re. the part about Zalmay Khalilzad, the Pakistani President Zardari and Afghan President Karzai, see two articles in my second post, #2, in the following page. The two articles provide a lot more information.
