Mike Rivero has run What Really Happened.com since 1994. WRH began as a page on Mike Rivero's business website asking questions about the death of Vince Foster.
Does Mike Rivero miss out a lot of what is really happening?
Does he do his homework?
Is he sometimes too ready to accept the views of the main stream media?
Does he ever mention Dutroux or the CIA's attempt to topple various world leaders?
Does WRH tell us of CIA links to the toppling of Suharto?
"Like I said in an earlier piece, WRH's world is finite. It has limitations.
"You can spend all the time you like there and will never encounter Dave McGowan nor any mention of the 'pedophocracy'.
"(For late arrivals, The Pedophocracy is a must-read. It can be found here).
"And sure, the pedophocracy is explicitly a phrase of McGowan's creation. But the word itself is neither here nor there. It's the concept that counts.
"Give it whatever name you like, as long as it describes a network of immensely powerful people who traffic in children, have a penchant for satanism, and are seemingly untouchable.
"In terms of this big picture, I haven't a shred of doubt. The pedophocracy exists, and it exists big time...
Does WRH tell us of Dutroux links to the USA?
"I wrote to Mike and set him straight on a key fact -
Hi Mike,
I hate to tell you this, but the tunnels under the McMartin school were found precisely as described. Google 'E Gary Stickel Phd McMartin tunnels'.
That should sort you out.
Stickel by the way is actually famous. He's the archeologist Spielberg went to when he needed a consultant for Raiders of the Lost Ark. He's the real deal. And he found the tunnels and said so.
The tunnels were there. And if the tunnels were there, the kids and the parents weren't bullshitting. The drunk you mention only got that way because no one would believe her. Can't say I blame her myself.
It wasn't a witch hunt mate. It was real...
"Mike's not a chatty fellow so I got no reply. Nor did my thing appear on his letters page...
"Go search WRH, see if you can find any mention of 'The Finders'.
"In spite of it being one of the biggest mindfucks ever, it doesn't exist on WRH. Just for the record, that's '0' results.
"Keep searching, look for 'Dutroux', look for 'West Point' or 'Presidio'..."
Pinhas Lavon and Golda Meir.The Lavon Affair was an Israeli covert operation in Egypt, known as Operation Susannah, in which Israeli military intelligence planted bombs in Egyptian, American and British-owned targets in Egypt in the summer of 1954 in the hopes that "the Muslim Brotherhood, the Communists, 'unspecified malcontents' or 'local nationalists'" would be blamed.[1] It became known as the Lavon Affair after the Israeli defense minister Pinhas Lavon, who was forced to resign because of the incident. Israel admitted responsibility in 2005 when Israeli President Moshe Katzav honored the nine Egyptian Jewish agents who were involved.[2]
1.There is a suspicion that the CIA and Mossad want to topple Egypt's President Mubarak.
A. Ian Bremmer, at Foreign Policy, 23 February 2009, writes that "Mubarak wants Obama to recognize that he will not play the role of America's obedient servant. When Washington applies pressure, Egypt can and will say no." (Mubarak flexes his muscles)
B. According to a recent U.S. National Intelligence Council report, "Mubarak is getting older and no longer has the energy to provide the leadership he once did," - US report: Saudis replacing Egypt as regional leader
The attack was the first deadly violence against Westerners in Egypt since 2006. As yet there has been no claim of responsibility.
Terror attacks in the past have been the work of Mossad and its friends.
3. In the Lavon affair, 1954, Israeli agents planted bombs in several buildings in Egypt, and left evidence behind implicating Arabs as the culprits. One of the bombs detonated prematurely. The Egyptians captured one of the bombers and rounded up the Israeli spy ring. (aangirfan: Dahab, King David, Lavon...)
On the streets around the site of Sunday’s attack ... many blamed Israel.
"I think Israel did it this time to harm the Egyptian tourism industry, which is like the blood that moves the country," said Mohsin al-Hindawi, 53, who sells traditional Egyptian robes to tourists.
"No Egyptian Muslim or Christian would do something like this in a sacred place like Hussein Square," he said.
"Mark my words, the Israelis are behind it. It takes a lot of dollars to carry out these attacks." Mustafa al-Hinawi, the 45-year-old owner of a perfume shop nearby, agreed.
"Israel did this because they are passing through a phase of instability and they want to harm Egypt’s peace and security by hitting our tourism," he told dpa.
The March 2009 edition of National Geographic has an article about terrorism in Egypt.
Did the spooky people at National Geographic know in advance about the Cairo bombing?
"In an uncharacteristically blunt criticism of the regime of President Husni Mubarak, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice testified before the House Foreign Affairs Committee on February 13 that, "we have not been satisfied with Egypt's efforts" to control smuggling of weapons into Gaza through the tunnels under the border.
"Voices in and around the Israeli government have been beating the drums for a full-fledged invasion and reoccupation of the Gaza Strip as the only solution to this and other security problems."Is the CIA going to use the Muslim Brotherhood to topple Mubarak? - Egypt's Opposition to Run in Elections
The Muslim Brotherhood, in 2005, won 88 seats in the lower house of parliament and became the country's largest opposition bloc.
There were wars involving Israel and Egypt in 1956, 1967, and 1973.
Israel took over the Sinai in 1973, following the Six Day War.
Some of the Bedouin say they were treated better by the Israelis than by the folks from Cairo.
In 1979 Egypt and Israel signed a peace deal, and tourism was able to develop in the Sinai, to the advantage of the folks from Cairo and to the disadvantage of the Bedouin.
Reportedly, in 2002, a young dentist called Khalid Al Masaid formed Tawhid wa Jihad, Unity and Holy War.
Reportedly, in the spring of 2004, Iyad Salah, a follower of the dentist Al Masaid, had recruited a small group of conspirators.
In 2004 there were 'terrorist' attacks in TABA.
In 2005, there were 'terrorist' attacks in the area of Sharm el Sheikh.
In 2006, there were 'terrorist' attacks in the area of Dahab.
Greater Israel is to include the Sinai
Retired General Salah al-Din Salim, an Egyptian researcher at the Strategic Studies Institute in Cairo, said that it could not be ruled out that the Israeli Mossad was involved in the terror attack in Dahab.
Dr. Abdallah Al-Ash'al , former assistant to the Egyptian foreign minister and lecturer on international law at Cairo University , was quoted on the internet site http://www.islamonline.net/: "All of the signs indicate that Israeli hands were [behind the attacks]. The area is close to Israel, and Israel was the first to warn its citizens not to go to Sinai…" [5]
In the Egyptian Weekly Nahdat Misr, Dr. Abdallah Al-Ash'al said that Israel "is interested in embarrassing Egypt and in hurting Egyptian tourism, just as the Palestinian Intifada hurt Israeli tourism… It is in Israel's interest that there be an Egyptian response to what happened, since it wants Egypt to join the American campaign against terrorism… It is likely that Israel recruited some people in coordination with terrorist groups in order to hurt Egypt… Israel's goal in this operation was to bring terrorism back to Egypt…" [6]
General Fuad Allam , former deputy head of the Egyptian state security service , said to Nahdat Misr : "None of the suspects in these bombings – whether Egypt, Palestine, or Al-Qa'ida – have anything to gain [from carrying out the bombings], except for Israel. All of the evidence points to the conclusion that the Israeli Mossad is the first and last to gain from this operation… As for the Palestinian factions, no one suspects that they were involved in this incident – except for Israel, which accuses them – unless the Mossad got one of these factions involved [in carrying out the attacks]." [7]
Muhammad Abd Al-Fattah Omar , former assistant to the Egyptian interior minister , said to http://www.islamonline.net/: "For every action we need to search first for who stands to gain from it… Israel is the only one who benefits from these explosions. This is due to the fact that the only two [elements] that can enter the area with ease are the Israelis and their agents… The Israeli right was going through a crisis as a result of the American pressure on Sharon, after the veto that America cast [at the U.N.] to save Israel from the proposal to condemn it for the massacres it is conducting against the Palestinians in Gaza. [Israel] had no choice but to undertake an action that would ease the American pressure on the area and would put the ball in the Americans' court, at least until the elections…" [8]
Dr. Dhiaa Rashwan, from the Egyptian Al-Ahram newspaper's Center for Diplomatic and Strategic Studies , said: "The events in Sinai were not planned by Islamists, neither Egyptian nor Al-Qa'ida… The one who gained the most from this operation was Israel, and the one who was hurt most was Egypt. In Taba there is no population from which an Islamist movement could spring, it has only tourists and security forces, and thus there is no Islamist activity in this sensitive region. In addition, the intensive security presence prevents the importing of such huge quantities of explosives…
"This operation is the [work] of a security apparatus, or else was carried out in cooperation with a major security apparatus, and the one who gained the most was Israel, and thus one should attribute [the operation] to Israel. For the Israeli security [apparatuses] it is easy to carry out an operation on lands adjacent to its borders and then to retreat into Israel, whereas it would be difficult for it to carry out such a thing deep in Egyptian lands."

The National Geographic appears to have become the mouthpiece of the CIA.
Just before 9 11, the National geographic was preparing maps and an article on Afghanistan.
If you want to know which countries the Pentagon is about to invade, look at the National Geographic.
The edition of the magazine, dated November 2004, has an article on the Geography of Terror. The article, written by Walter Laqueur who recently retired from the Kissinger Chair at the Centre for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, seems full of obvious disinformation.
The article refers to a number of countries:
Ireland – the article fails to mention US financing of terror groups, and the allegation that most of the worst incidents were the work of the UK security services.
Europe – the article fails to mention the CIA links to the terror which hit Italy in the 1980s. Remember the bombs in railway stations that ‘were the work of fascist groups with CIA connections’.
Indonesia – the article fails to mention (1) the CIA terror used to topple President Sukarno and then President Suharto (2) the US training of the generals who have been associated with terror in East Timor, the Spice Islands and elsewhere (3) the links between the US trained Indonesian military and ‘Moslem’ terror groups such as Laskar Jihad (4) the alleged involvement of the Indonesian military in the Bali bomb.
Palestine – the article does not make it clear that (1) the Palestinians were driven from their land by Jewish terrorist groups (2) the Israelis initially aided Hamas in order to weaken Arafat (3) the USA supports Israel in its occupation of Palestinian land and defiance of UN resolutions and in its possession of weapons of mass destruction.
Iraq – the article fails to mention the body of evidence that Saddam was a CIA agent and was put into power by the USA.
Al Qaeda – the article promotes the myth of al Qaeda. It fails to mention (1) the bin Laden links to the Bush family (2) bin Laden’s Jewish mother (3) bin Laden’s death in December 2001 (4) the controlled explosions that brought down the Twin Towers on 9 11 (5) the training of the alleged hijackers at US military bases.
The National Geographic is supposed to be about geography. But what do we get? We get endless stuff about:
Archaeology – particularly in the Mayan world.
History.
Biology – particularly fish and apes.
Astronomy
The articles are written in a strange style. The authors like to sound clever and literary but often they simply obscure the meaning of what they are trying to say.
The layout of text and photos also tries to be clever, but ends up being clumsy, like an american automobile.
Who advertises in the National Geographic? We get adverts for the sort of posh watches and posh cars which I could never afford.
