The Odds of all the incidents connected to the mass murder on 9/11 are not due to chance
Former Secretary of Treasury Paul O'Neill said that Saddam was "topic A" ten days after the inauguration at the very first National Security Council meeting, and eight months before 9/11. According to O'Neill, "it was all about finding a way to do it. That was the tone of it. The president saying `Go find me a way to do this.'"
On November 24th, 2009, the "Chilcot Inquiry" revealed that "Tony Blair's government knew that prominent members of the Bush administration wanted to topple Saddam Hussein years before the invasion (before 9/11)" [...] "We were aware of these drumbeats from Washington and internally we discussed it. Our policy was to stay away from that part of the spectrum," added Sir William Patey, then head of the Middle East department at the Foreign Office."
In a 2007 interview with former Counterterrorism "tsar" Richard Clarke, he states that between March 2001 and May 2001, members of the Bush Administration discussed creating a "casus belli" for war with Iraq.
In early 2001, Dick Cheney was put in charge of The National Energy Policy Development Group, or "Energy Task Force" for short. The task force met with what appears to be every oil executive in existence. It was eventually discovered that one of the topics of discussion during these task force meetings was Iraq's oil fields. Five months before 9/11. An appeals court, and it was decided that Cheney's Task Force documents may remain secret.
On 7/23/2002, Agence France Presse reports that General William Kernan, commander in chief of the Joint Forces Command said that "the details of Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan were largely taken from a scenario examined by Central Command in May 2001." Explained to who is not known by me (Dick McManus).
In late Summer 2001, the Guardian will report that "reliable western military sources say a US contingency plan exist[s] on paper by the end of the summer to attack Afghanistan from the north." In early August, a senior Taliban official in the defense ministry will tell journalist Hamid Mir that "[W]e believe Americans are going to invade Afghanistan and they will do this before October 15, 2001. Bush II had plans for the invasion of Afghanistan on his desk on 9/9/2001.
On 7/21/2001, Former Pakistani Foreign Secretary Niaz Naik later says he is allegedly told by senior American officials at the meeting that military action to overthrow the Taliban in Afghanistan is planned to "take place before the snows started falling in Afghanistan, by the middle of October at the latest." On 8/9/2009, it is reported that Niaz Naik "was found dead in mysterious circumstances at his residence."
In March 2002, a capture of al-Qaeda member Abu Zubaida reveals Saudi links. He was tricked into thinking he has been handed over to the Saudis and under the influence of sodium pentothal, he tells the interrogators and names Pakistani air force chief Mushaf Ali Mir, Saudi Intelligence Minister Prince Turki al-Faisal, Prince Sultan bin Faisal, Prince Fahd bin Turki, and says all of them helped him transfer money to al-Qaeda. Abu Zubaida says in 1996, he attended a meeting with Osama Bin Ladin and learned that Pakistan and Saudi Arabia that promised Bin Ladin protection, weaponry, and supplies in return for not being attacked. He also says both governments were told the US would be attacked on 9/11 but not given the details of the attacks.
Every person at this meeting, except for Prince Turki died mysteriously from July 2002 through February 2003. One died of a heart attack at the age of 43. The next day, while on the way to his funeral, another died. One week later, another died of thirst in the desert. Seven months later, another died in a plane crash.
NOTE for more see my chapters about mysterious deaths.
Sir Christopher Meyer, "a former British ambassador to the United States says then-National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice talked to him about Iraq and Saddam Hussein hours after the attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon on Sept. 11, 2001." This is not a rational emotional reaction. Rice should have spent a day or two to collect her thoughts before talking to the British
On the day of 9/11, a number of key administration personnel were "scattered" across the country, and the world. With few exceptions, including Dick Cheney and Norman Mineta.
This goes to the heart of all the odds that do not add up (that due to chance) when trying to get at the truth of this mass murder on 9/11. For example, what are the odds of 14 military exercises being run on 9/11 and one involving a real jet playing the role of a hijacked, commercial aircraft. There was also a "live-fly" Air Force exercise Vigilant Warrior that was being run by the Joint Chiefs of Staff (Richard B. Myers) and NORAD. This war game involved at least one real commercial aircraft being flown to simulate exactly the kind of airliner hijack emergency that actually happened on 9/11, commercial jets used like missiles and flying them into building. Major Don Arias of NORAD confirmed this information. http://www.globalpublicmedia.com/transcripts/159
Also Air Force exercises move practically all the US fighter jets up to Alaska and Canada, the no-fly zone in Iraq, and to a third Air Force exercise in Arizona and New Mexico.
Only one war-game exercise, Vigilant Guardian, was mentioned in a footnote to the Kean Commission report, however, it was deliberatelyfalsely described as an exercise intended to intercept Russian bombers. The truth is was a hijack exercise in the northeast sector.
The 9/11 Report only mentioned one of the 13 or 14 military exercises, Vigilant Guardian, and in a footnote in the back of the book.
Rep. McKinney asked, "who was in charge of managing those wargames?," and was cut off by Rep. Duncan Hunter. Gen. Myers never gave a name, but he did say, "North American Aerospace Defense Command was responsible." She was promised an answer in writing and as far as I know, never received it. On 3/10/2005, Rep. McKinney asked Donald Rumsfeld, and Gen. Richard Myers about the exercises. Gen. Eberhart was in the command of the North American Aerospace Defense Command.
The odds that FEMA had a exercise such that its emergency response unit was deployed to a New York City pier on 10 Sept. and the New York City Emergency Operation Center was at this location on 9/11 not in WTC 7.
The odds of a steel high rise building collapse due to fire, when never before has this occurred – ever, yet the fires in other high rise building were a thousand time worse. Jet fuel burns at only 600 degrees F. In the case of both the Twin Towers, a great deal of jet fuel was expelled outside the building forming large fire balls. The strength of a steel beam begins to weaken at about 600º F and increases rapidly after it reaches 800ºF, and when steel gets 900 to 1020ºF hot it still retains about 60% of its strength. This temperature range is about how hot the fires were. No steel framed high-rise has ever collapsed due to fire. And they all of those that did burn up, they burned for many hours and the fires burnt the entire buildings. The South Tower was the second building hit, yet it was the first to fall down.
Huge steel beams pulled from the wreckage had been bent in half, not broken or ripped apart. This can only occur when a gigantic steel beam reached over 3,000 degrees F. (yellow or orange color) and is bent. And after this beam cooled, the beam stayed bent in half without cracks or tears in the steel. If gravity had caused the steel beam end up bent in half, there would have been cracks or broken parts of this beam. It takes massive amounts of oxygen to make a fire hot enough to cause a three foot thick steel bean so hot that it bends like this without cracks.
Appendix C of the FEMA report on WTC7 describes steel beam had undergone sulphidation and the metal of the beam thinned such that there were holes in it. These thinning and hole is only the result of temperature of about 1,830 degrees F.
After the WTC buildings collapsed, fire fighters reported that there were tones molten steel "flowing like lava" and the heat from would burn the souls of their boots up to five weeks later. Photos of yellow hot steel were taken as steel wreckage was being removed. In addition, USGSoverhead thermal photographs of the 911 wreckage and showed 1,160 to 1,377 degrees F. hot-spots in the wreckage some six weeks after Sept. 11th.
The black smoke coming out of the buildings is also an example of an oxygen starved fire.
What are the odds of finding a center core steel beam in the wreckage that had been cut cleanly at 45 degrees as if cut by a shaped charge of explosives? And the odds finding around this cut beam,steel froze as it cooled (like an icicle). During the chemical analysis of this re-solidified steel, scientists found elements within the steel of sulfur, aluminum, potassium, manganese, fluorine, & titanium. These are the exact elements used to make the chemical compound, thermate.
What are the odds of four different samples of dust at ground zero of 9/11 and when scientist looked it, they found large amounts of microscopic or 1/16th inch pieces of super-thermate. An newly developed explosive compound made only for or by the US government and not commercially available.
Also found in the 911 dust was large amounts of microscopic steel spheres. These spheres can only occur after steel is vaporized and then is cooled by the air cools. This is the same process that causes water to form into hail and some spheres as large as golf balls. The round shape is caused by air pressure. The boiling point of steel needed to turn steel into a gas is over 5,000 degree F.
The odds of the Twin Tower being hit twice on the first try by the alleged hijackers who could not fly a single engine private plane and when no experienced commercial pilot could have hit the Twin Towers could have done this super human task as some 350 to 400 + mph in a turning diving.
The odds of that the Twin Towers would collapse when they were designed to withstand multiple impacts by Boeing 707 aircraft.
The odds that the wings of the 767s would not be torn off by friction of the dense air at sea level at these speeds.
In fact, recordings of TV broadcasts of video of the second jet hitting the south tower, were faked. . Analysis by the below agencies found that these videos show following speeds displayed in the video tapes.
Massachusetts Institute of Technology - 503 mph
British Royal Air Force - 575 mph
Federal Aviation Administration - 586 mph
National Institute of Standards and Tech. - 546 mph
Federal Emergency Management Agency - 590 mph
As is just said, the wings on a 767 would be torn off by speeds in excess of 350 mph according to Boeing engineers and pilots know this fact. The aerodynamic limitations of the Boeing 767-200 aircraft are such that it would be unwise to exceed an indicated airspeed of 460 mph at 35,000 feet and 350 mph at sea level.
These airspeeds at sea level is well above the maximum operating speed of the Boeing 767-200 and therefore the pilots would run the risk of either total structural failure or localized structural failures, namely wing fairings breaking off, engine cowlings breaking off, control surfaces breaking off or becoming inoperative and handling difficulties. It appears from analysis of the video photos just prior to UA 175 crashing into the south tower, that someone has used video fakery. There had to be more than one person or group responsible for the forgery and / or manipulation of video tapes of flight UA175 moving at Impossible Speeds.
The odds of both the 767 airplanes both hit storage rooms on the floors of the Twin Towers where computers and where batteries were stored to provide back power for those computers.
Now there is overwhelming evidence which suggests the data that is being provided to the public through the FOIA, is not from an aircraft which has been operated by American Airlines.
Commercial pilots have analyzed the data being provided by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) allegedly from flight data recorders for the 9/11 jets and they found that the data exceeds the capabilities of a standard 757/767 by a wide margin.
The FAA and NORAD would have us believe that as flight 77 approached Washington DC on course to hit the Pentagon, and on their FAA radar scopes, air traffic controllers observed what they thought was fighter jet making a spiral diving maneuver from a higher altitude down to near sea level. However, there is a big problem with this observed event. Commercial pilots state that no 757 airlines could have made such a high speed, spiral diving, 360-degree maneuver because gravity would have caused the jet reach a speed over 500 knots and the force of the dense air at sea level would have likely torn the wings off. This is confirmed by the Boeing aircraft engineers that tested the maximum speed at which the wings would be torn off.
This proves someone provided false data via the FOIA request.
Mr. Dennis Cimino has proven that the alleged AA 77 flight data recording was faked. He analyzed this FDR black box data. He is an expert with over 30 years of advance research experience in the following areas: SPH-2 RAVIR , flight data recorders and data , video processing , radar, radar recorders, radar signal propagation, IFF /// friendly vs. foe /// / ( the ID code number that comes up on the radar scope at the FAA aircraft control center and tells, Aerodynamics and flight systems, and is a commercial pilot.
Mr. Cimino has learned that the digital staggering of radar sweeps is the result of playback of recorded digital video recording. When he plotted the radar sweep times, he saw a 24.7 second delay in the NEADs feed, as well as the digital staggering of the radars in the NEADs as well as the air defense sector that day. From this it can be proved that someone recorded the data on the flight data recorder, two years earlier. Radar is never delayed 24.7 seconds before 911, nor has it been since then.
No 757 can fly low enough in order to crash into the first and second floors of any building at 300 mph, let alone the 530 mph noted on the FDR. The force of the wind bouncing off the ground would prevent the 757 from getting lower than about 60 feet. Pilots call this "ground affect." Because of this wind forcing the jet upward, to land any commercial jet the pilot has slow the speed of the jet down to the point that it actually falls onto the runway. This takes a lot of skill.
What are the odds of the alleged terrorist crashing the 757 into the center the Pentagon vs. the ground floor where the DoD accounting department computers were located and where over $ 2 trillion dollars of taxpayer funds was un-accounted for. "The Army accounting office, Resource Services Washington, lost 34 of its 65 employees and most were civilian accountants, bookkeepers and budget analysts.
There were no marks or damage on the wall of the Pentagon that should have been caused by the long wings of the 757. The windows were not even broken where the vertical stabilizer should have smashed into them. In a photograph of the Pentagon, a column 14AA that was holding up the building, was supernaturally still intact. This column was located directly in the middle of the hole in the building that took a direct hit by a 757.
Because of their heavy weight the 757 jet engines (six tons) should have easily made large holes in the wall. There were no holes in the Pentagon outside wall made by two jet engines. Because of how tall a 757 is from the bottom and the fact that the 757 hit between the first and second floors of the Pentagon, these jet engines should have left skid marks as they plowed thru the lawn in front Pentagon. These are examples of another supernatural event.
The FBI is withholding at least another 84 surveillance tapes that were seized in the immediate aftermath of the attack on the Pentagon. There is an ongoing lawsuit to get these tapes released via the Freedom of Information Act. The FBI has admitted in a statement to attorney, Scott Hodes, that they have these tapes, that they have already analyzed them and are still keeping them under lock and key.

The journalist who video taped the statements of these witness, also interview a taxi driver Lloyde England, who alleged his cab was hit by a street light pole that smashed the front wind shield of his cab. This cab driver also admitted that US government officials staged light pole landing on his cab. Without his statement and his smashed out windshield of his cab. There would have been no evidence the 757 knocked over those light poles. Photos taken immediately after the Pentagon exploded, that the same taxi cab located no where near this light pole.You can watch a video tape of this investigative report and listen to the eye witness tell their story at: http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/TPV3/Voices.php/2009/08/30/investigation-pentagon-attack-show-monst
The FBI and the FAA have refused to release the aircraft component serial number data allegedly in their possessions that would confirm these serial numbers agree with the federal registry identifications of the commercial civil aircraft. See the following link for a drawing of the flight path and a video at: http://www.v911t.org/FAA_Withholds.php
What are the odds, that of all major U.S. airline crashes within the U.S. investigated and published by the National Transportation Safety Board during the past 20 years, the 9/11 'black boxes' are virtually the only ones without listed serial numbers. A Nov. 26, 2007 Freedom of Information Act request of the Federal Aviation Administration for the last known serial numbers of the flight data recorders and other components on the aircraft was denied.
Dr. Sherman lived 12 miles downwind from the Pentagon. She worked for the Radiation and Public Health Project, and on September 11, 2001, she turned on the Geiger counter that she uses in the work and it showed an extremely high reading more than eight to ten times higherthan normal background radiation. Dr. Sherman called her co-worker Dr. Leuren Moret, and he advised her to "Get out of town, and don't come back until it has rained three times." They took photographs of the readings on the Geiger counter as proof to back up their story.
They also called the EPA, HAZMAT, and FBI and told them to "Get all those emergency response workers suited up. They need to be protected." On September 13, 2001, EPA called back concurred that there was radiation at the Pentagon. "Yup, the Pentagon crash rubble was radioactive, and we believe its depleted uranium…" http://www.iconoclast-texas.com/News/19news03.htm
So where did this radiation come from? Leslie M. Nichols, product spokesperson for Boeing's 767 stated that, "Boeing has never used Depleted Uranium on either the 757 or the 767."
After a week from 9/11 there were still high radiation levels of 75 to 83 cpm , 33 miles northwest of the Pentagon in soil readings. Cindy Folkers of the Washington-based Nuclear Information and Resource Service (NIRS) said normal background radiation levels for outdoor should have been between 12 to 20 cpm. She also said that the actual radiation levels reported by the Dr. Sherman may have been significantly higher than she detected and reported due to the type of Geiger counter she was using.
It is alleged that on September 11, 2001 three of the E-4Bs were participating in a live command and control exercise known as Global Guardian. The 2001 exercise started the week before September 11 under the command of Admiral Richard Mies, commander-in-chief of STRATCOM.
During the evacuation of the White House on 9/11 Linda Brookhart captured a photo of the mystery plane in the air above her. She took this photograph as she was standing near the Old Executive Office Building (located immediately next to the White House). If you go to the linkhttp://www.rense.com/general76/wdb.htm you can view this photo. This photo is a US Air Force. E-4B, most advanced electronics platform and a modified Boeing 747-200. It is the National Emergency Airborne Command Post (NEACP), (knee-cap). Its premier function is to serve as a flying command, control and communications (C3) center in the event of a national emergency or nuclear war. The E-4B can communicate with all US military commands, world-wide, including tactical and strategic forces, naval ships, planes, nuclear-armed missiles, even submarines.
The 9/11 commission never disclosed the fact that on 9/11 the Air Force had this E-4B command and control jet in air over Wash. DC.
What are the odds, of a group of Israelis were arrested after they were observed dancing on top of a white van was they watched the Twin Towers burning or collapsing from across the Hudson River. The van was marked "Urban Moving Systems." When the FBI got suspicious, having found maps of the city, certain places highlighted, $4,700 in cash in a sock, and foreign passports. The cops bomb-sniffing dogs reacted as if they smelled explosives. The FBI seized the prints of the photos of these Israelis had taken, showing one of them celebrating with the WTC smoldering in the background. These dancing Israelis worked for a Weehawken moving company known as Urban Moving Systems.
"A few days after the attacks, Urban Moving System's Israeli owner, Dominick Suter, dropped his business and fled the country for Israel. He was in such a hurry to flee America that some of Urban Moving System's customers were left with their furniture stranded in storage facilities.
"The Jewish weekly The Forward reported that the FBI finally concluded that at least two of the detained Israelis were agents working for the Mossad, the Israeli intelligence agency, and that Urban Moving Systems, the ostensible employer of the five Israelis, was a front operation. This was confirmed by two former CIA officers, and they noted that movers' vans are a common intelligence cover. The Israelis were held in custody for 71 days before being quietly released.
According to Carl Cameron of FOX news, throughout late 2000 and 2001, a total of 200 Israeli spies were arrested. It was the largest spy ring to ever be uncovered in the history of the United States. The Washington Post also reported that some of these Israelis were arrested in connection with the 9-11 investigation. However, FOX pulled the investigative series after Zionist groups complained to FOX executives. FOXeven remove the written transcripts of the series from its website! The FOX series and other mainstream news media sources revealed that many of these Israelis were army veterans with electronics and explosives expertise.
Why were Israeli explosives experts, posing as "art students" roaming the halls of US Federal buildings?
Some 200 Israeli spies were uncovered, among them many military members, electronics experts, wiretapping and phone tapping specialists, and explosives experts with the skill to needed to do a controlled demotion. The FBI official told FOX's Carl Cameron: "Evidence linking these Israelis to 9-11 is classified. I cannot tell you about the evidence that has been gathered. It is classified information."
http://whatreallyhappened.com/hundreds.html
Mossad spies were also trailing and harassing CIA officers assigned to track people like alleged hijacker Mohammed Atta, especially in Fort Lee, New Jersey where Atta lived for a while. These Israelis art student/spies came very close to the later alleged 9/11 hijackers. In the town of Hollywood, Florida, they identified the two flight school students from Hamburg and alleged hijack pilots, Mohammed Atta and Marwan al-Shehhi. These Mossad spies lived in the vicinity of the apartment used by these two, observing them around the clock.
FBI agents were tailing Israeli agents in the United States - who, in turn, were living and working in close proximity to the Al Qaeda hijackers. The FBI was stymied (the covert operation blow) by leaks via the secure FBI and Justice Department communications systems set up by Israeli telecommunications companies such as AMDOCS and Comverse Infosys. Also Israeli software companies had permitted Mossad unfettered access to credit card and telephone records of US (FBI) counter-intelligence agents. America's counter-intelligence community was trying to do its job with one hand tied behind its back. http://www.waynemadsenreport.com/exclusive1.htm
What are the odds that some $200 million in renovations and improvements need to be done to the Twin Towers to remove and replace materials declared to be health hazards inside the buildings. The Larry Silverstein, owner of the Twin Towers and WTC 7 would make made$1.33 BILLION in profit as a result of 9/11.
POST 9/11 lies pushing Congress to make war and the 9/11 Commission cover up
Lawrence A. Franklin, a Defense Department policy analyst, Franklin also had worked in the Office of Strategic Influence. It is highly likely that this office of the Pentagon run by neo-cons, was leaking national security information to the news media to influence public opinion in favor of an invasion of Iraq and falsely connect the alleged Al Qaeda 911 terrorist to Iraq. The Office of Special Influence was headed by theUndersecretary of Defense for Intelligence, like Stephen Cambone and William Luti, both who were neo-cons. Its staff was hand-picked by William Luti, a former aide to Cheney and Newt Gingrich.
Here is an example of a leak to the media: It was alleged that a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee leaked top secret/ sensitive compartmented information they were briefed about on about August 6th, 2001.
"A 1999 report from the National Intelligence Council, which oversees government intelligence analysis, saying 'Suicide bomber (s) belonging toAl Qaeda's martyrdom Battalion could crash-land an aircraft packed with high explosives into the Pentagon, the headquarters of the [CIA] or the White House. "
Patrick Lang, a former director of Middle East analysis at the Defense Intelligence Agency, said in an interview with the New Yorker magazine in May that the Office of Special Plans "started picking out things that supported their thesis and stringing them into arguments that they could use with the President. It's not intelligence. It's political propaganda."
The Sixth Fake Terror alert to scare the crap out of us about THREAT and to get us into the wars
Bush et al, made at least 935 false statements in the two years following September 11, 2001, about the national security threat posed by Saddam Hussein's Iraq...[as] part of an orchestrated campaign that effectively galvanized public opinion and, in the process, led the nation to war under decidedly false pretenses.
In November 2002, Vice Adm. Thomas Wilson, the head of the Defense Intelligence Agency, had testified in Congress that there was no intelligence suggesting Saddam's intention was to build up a WMD arsenal so he could deploy it against the United States. In fact, the existing intelligence indicated Saddam was not interested in a WMD showdown with the United States.
The CIA's national intelligence estimate (NIE) would later state, Saddam was not likely to mount "terrorist attacks with conventional or [WMD] against the United States, fearing that exposure of Iraqi involvement would provide Washington a stronger cause for making war" against Iraq.
According to State Department sources, John J. Kokal briefed Secretary of State Colin Powell at least once a week on Iraq, adding that Kokal was a skeptic on the Iraqi weapons of mass destruction.
Another INR official, weapons expert Greg Thielmann, said he and INR were largely ignored by Under Secretary for Arms Control and International Security John Bolton and his deputy, David Wurmser, a pro-Likud neoconservative who recently became Vice President Dick Cheney's Middle East adviser.
Another INR official, weapons expert Greg Thielmann, said he and INR were largely ignored by Under Secretary for Arms Control and International Security John Bolton and his deputy, David Wurmser, a neo-conservative who recently became Vice President Dick Cheney's Middle East adviser.
Kokal was found dead in the late afternoon of November 7 2003. Police indicated he may have jumped from the eight floor roof of the State Department. headquarters. Kokal was an Iraqi intelligence analysts for the State Department's Bureau of Intelligence and Research (INR) Near East and South Asian division.
NOTE: Here we go again, yet another mysterious death make a total of four connected to 9/11/
On 7/28/2010, The "young man" as being Douglas Cochrane asked Cheney if does that order stand. According to 9/11 Commission notes, he was interviewed on April 16th, 2004, though we can not see what he said. Why not? He is not mentioned in the 9/11 Report.
Seymour Hersh reported that, "Iran-Contra veterans working out of Dick Cheney's office are using stolen funds from Iraq to arm al Qaeda-tied groups and foment a larger Sunni-Shia war."
On 4/3/2007, ABCNews reported that, "a Pakistani tribal militant group responsible for a series of deadly guerrilla raids inside Iran has been secretly encouraged and advised by American officials since 2005." [...] "Pakistani government sources say the secret campaign against Iran by Jundullah was on the agenda when Vice President Dick Cheney met with Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf in February."
The (Saudi) agent secured and paid for an apartment. He arranged flight lessons. He introduced them to a tight circle of Muslims, primarily Saudis, who offered additional support." [...] "The (Saudi) agent then tapped another source of funds: a welfare account maintained for the benefit of Saudis in need by the wife of the kingdom's ambassador to the United States." The Saudi Ambassador at the time was long-time Bush family friend, Prince Bandar."
, "Lt. General Mahmood Ahmed, the head of the Pakistani ISI, someone who met with U.S. elected and appointed officials in the weeks before 9/11, on the day of 9/11, and in the days after 9/11, ordered possible MI6 Agent Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh to wire transfer $100,000 to Mohammad Atta."
On 12/24/1998, President Clinton signs an order authorizing the CIA to assassinate Osama Bin Laden. Philip Shenon will write that Clinton's authorization is "written in stark language" and it makes it very clear "that the president was telling the tribal leaders they could kill bin Laden."
it is never even communicated to Michael Scheuer, head of Alec Station, the CIA's bin Laden unit. Scheuer will later express his frustration at not being allowed to try to kill bin Laden, "We always talked about how much easier it would have been to kill him."
February 1999, The CIA is allowed to try to kill bin Laden only using one specific group of assets-tribal leaders tracking bin Laden in Afghanistan, still based on the earlier instructions. On 5/23/2011, the Telegraph released a report on Michael Scheuer, the former head of Alec Station. It said that, "during his 22 years in the CIA – three and a half as head of a 18-man Osama bin Laden unit – he told his bosses at Langley on 10 occasions that he had a clear opportunity to kill or capture the terrorist chief. On all 10 he was told to hold his fire."
In Afghanistan, veteran CIA agent Gary Berntsen is in charge of the team responsible for capturing or killing Osama Bin Laden called "Jawbreaker." "He will claim that at the start of December 2001, one of his Arabic-speaking CIA agents finds a radio on a dead al-Qaeda fighter during a battle in the Tora Bora region. This agent hears bin Laden repeatedly attempt to rally his troops. On the same radio, that agent and another CIA agent who speaks Arabic hear bin Laden apologizing to his troops for getting them trapped and killed by US aerial bombing. Based on this information, Berntsen makes a formal request for 800 US troops to be deployed along the Pakistani border to prevent bin Laden's escape. The request is not granted. Berntsen's lawyer later claims, "Gary coordinated most of the boots on the ground. We knew where bin Laden was within a very circumscribed area. It was full of caves and tunnels but we could have bombed them or searched them one by one. The Pentagon failed to deploy sufficient troops to seal them off."
"A Knight Ridder investigative report will later conclude, "While more than 1,200 US Marines [sit] at an abandoned air base in the desert 80 miles away, Franks and other commanders [rely] on three Afghan warlords and a small number of American, British, and Australian special forces to stop al-Qaeda and Taliban fighters from escaping across the mountains into Pakistan." Military and intelligence officials warn Franks that the two main Afghan commanders cannot be trusted. This turns out to be correct, as the warlords accept bribes from al-Qaeda leaders to let them escape."
On 12/5/2001, Brig. Gen. James N. Mattis "is convinced his forces can seal the Tora Bora area to trap bin Laden there. Around this date, Mattis argues strongly to his military superiors at Centcom that his troops should fight at Tora Bora, but he is turned down."
Between December 8th – 14th, British special forces pursue Osama Bin Laden, and are reportedly "20 minutes behind" him but are "pulled off to allow US troops to go in for the kill." However, it takes hours for the Americans to arrive, by which time bin Laden has escaped."
On 10/6/2008, it is reported that "a team of elite Delta Force commandos was sent into Afghanistan with an assignment to find and kill Osama bin Laden at Tora Bora" but were stopped by U.S. officials. On 60 Minutes, the commando leader is asked by Scott Pelley, "how often does Delta come up with a tactical plan that's disapproved by higher headquarters?" His answer is "in my experience, in my five years at Delta, never before."
On 9/8/2011, it was reported that "ten years after al Qaeda's attack on the United States, the vast majority of the 9/11 Commission's investigative records remain sealed at the National Archives in Washington, even though the commission had directed the archives to make most of the material public in 2009." [...]
"The still-sealed documents contain source material on information that in some instances was omitted from the 2004 report because of partisan battles among the commissioners. The sealed material also includes vast amounts of information on al Qaeda and U.S. intelligence efforts in the years preceding the attacks."
Apparently, Cofer Black is fired on 5/17/2002. "Six anonymous US intelligence officials will claim that, in fact, Black is removed by Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld because Black publicly revealed details of the US military's failure to capture or kill bin Laden in Tora Bora, Afghanistan, in late 2001."
On 8/1/2002, Shayna Steiger, "a consular officer who issued 12 visas to the 9/11 hijackers" will give incorrect testimony to the House Committee on Government Reform. She is not mentioned in the 9/11 Report, even though 9/11 Commission staffers interviewed her.
According to Michael Springmann, someone who was the head US consular official in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia from Sept. 87 to March of 89, said that he was "repeatedly ordered" to issue [more than 100] visas to unqualified applicants." "He later learns that recruits from many countries fighting for bin Laden against Russia in Afghanistan were funneled through the Jeddah office to get visas to come to the US, where the recruits would travel to train for the Afghan war. According to Springmann, the Jeddah consulate was run by the CIA and staffed almost entirely by intelligence agents. This visa system may have continued at least through 9/11, and 11 of the 19 9/11 hijackers received their visas through Jeddah."
Harry Samit,the FBI agent who arrested Moussaoui three weeks before the deadly airliner hijackings that killed 3,000 people, said he tried to tell his superiors that he thought a hijacking plan might be in the works. Samit said."(Obstructed by) "From a particular individual in the (FBI's) Radical Fundamentalist Unit, yes sir, I was obstructed,"
Forbes reports that "MacMahon (Moussaoui defense attorney) introduced an Aug. 31 letter Samit drafted "to advise the FAA of a potential threat to security of commercial aircraft" from whomever Moussaoui was conspiring with. But Maltbie barred him from sending it to FAA headquarters, saying he would handle that, Samit testified. The agent added that he did tell FAA officials in Minneapolis of his suspicions."
The Joint Congressional Inquiry, which both Bush and Cheney tried to "limit the scope" of, released a report with 28 redacted pages. Apparently, those 28 pages talk about "possible Saudi Arabian financial links."
In 2004, Sen. Bob Graham said that the Bush Administration directed the FBI to "to restrain and obfuscate" any investigations into the connection. The landlord of the two hijackers was Abdussatar Shaikh, an FBI asset handled by agent Steven Butler. The FBI originally tried toprevent Butler from testifying before the Congressional Inquiry. "The fact that the FBI did not tell the Inquiry about the Florida discoveries, Graham says, is similar to the agency's failure to provide information linking members of the 9/11 terrorist team to other Saudis in California until congressional investigators discovered it themselves."
On 5/30/2009, the 9/11 victims-family members "today the Obama Administration filed in the Supreme Court a document that expressed the Administration's decision to stand with a group of Saudi princes and against the right of American citizens — 9/11 family members — to have our day in court. the 9/11 Families United to Bankrupt Terrorism charged that recent actions by his administration would enable five of the king's closest relatives to escape accountability for their role in financing and materially supporting. " It strikes a blow against the public's right to know who financed and supported."
On 11/28/2010, the New York Times reports on State Dept. Cables released by Wikileaks. Their report states that "Saudi donors remain the chief financiers of Sunni militant groups like Al Qaeda," and this was further elaborated on by a report released by the Guardian on 12/5/2010.
In March 2004, German intelligence reports that two private Saudi companies – The Twaik Group and Rawasin Media Productions – are linked with suspected al-Qaeda cells in Germany, and have connections to the Saudi Arabian intelligence agency and its chief Prince Turki bin Faisal. The Twaik Group deposited $250,000 into bank accounts of Mamoun Darkazanli, who had close ties to the 9/11 hijackers from Hamburg, Germany. US counterterrorism officials and members of the 9/11 Commission say privately that Saudi Arabia helped set the stage for attacks by cutting secret deals with the Taliban and UBL.
On 9/8/2011, it was reported that "just two weeks before the 9/11 hijackers slammed into the Pentagon and World Trade Center, members of a Saudi family abruptly vacated their luxury home near Sarasota, leaving a brand new car in the driveway, a refrigerator full of food, fruit on the counter – and an open safe in a master bedroom. In the weeks to follow, law enforcement agents not only discovered the home was visited by vehicles used by the hijackers, but phone calls were linked between the home and those who carried out the death flights – including leader Mohamed Atta – in discoveries never before revealed to the public." The Saudis left behind a full refrigerator, clothes, furnishings and a new car in the driveway.
On 9/9/2011, it was reported that "nearly 10 years to the day after the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, a London-based insurance syndicate Thursday filed a new lawsuit against the government of Saudi Arabia in U.S. District Court in Johnstown, Pa., alleging that Saudi High Commission for Relief of Bosnia and Herzegovina; the Saudi Joint Committee Relief Committee for Kosovo and Chechnya; National Commercial Bank, which has been linked by American officials to al-Qaeda money-laundering, and others."
Stephen Cozen, a Philadelphia lawyer representing Lloyd's Syndicate 3500, filed a notice that London-based insurance syndicate voluntarily dismissed its lawsuit. Another report says, "Stephen A. Cozen's motion to voluntarily dismiss his complaint provides no indication of the reason for the move.
If you ask me the Saudis paid off the plaintiff - London-based insurance syndicate .
Dick Cheney and George Bush refused to testify under oath before select individuals of the 9/11 Commission. They tried to make Henry Kissinger the Chairman of the commission. Lee Hamilton, a long time friend of Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld to be the co-chair.
Philip Zelikow was the Executive Director of the 9/11 Commission.
Zelikow said that the "real threat" with regards to Iraq's WMD was to Israel.
Zelikow tried to prevent the 9/11 Commission staffers from talking to the Commissioners.
It has been alleged that he may have taken direction from Karl Rove who, according to Philip Shenon, was concerned about the 9/11 Commission because "in the wrong hands… [it] could cost President Bush a second term."
In early 2003, Philip Zelikow and Ernest May wrote a complete outline of the final 9/11 Report. Zelikow, Kean, and Hamilton decided to keep this outline a secret from the commission staffers. When "it was later disclosed that Zelikow had prepared a detailed outline of the commission's final report at the very start of the investigation, many of the staff's investigators were alarmed."
On October 9th, 2010, during "Freedom Watch" with Judge Napolitano, 9/11 Whistleblower Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer alleges that during a lunch in Philadelphia, a 9/11 Commissioner told him that, "everybody on the commission was covering for someone."
On 5/30/2009, the 9/11 victims-family members "today the Obama Administration filed in the Supreme Court a document that expressed the Administration's decision to stand with a group of Saudi princes and against the right of American citizens — 9/11 family members — to have our day in court. the 9/11 Families United to Bankrupt Terrorism charged that recent actions by his administration would enable five of the king's closest relatives to escape accountability for their role in financing and materially supporting.

On 9/7/2011, it was reported that "President Obama appointed Philip Zelikow, associate dean for graduate academic programs in the University of Virginia's Graduate School of Arts & Sciences, to serve on the President's Intelligence Advisory Board."
Philip Zelikow was the Executive Director of the 9/11 Commission.
Zelikow said that the "real threat" with regards to Iraq's WMD was to Israel.
Zelikow tried to prevent the 9/11 Commission staffers from talking to the Commissioners.

On 8/2/2006, the Washington Post reported that "the Pentagon's initial story of how it reacted to the 2001 terrorist attacks may have been part of a deliberate effort to mislead the commission and the public" and that "the 10-member commission, in a secret meeting at the end of its tenure in summer 2004, debated referring the matter to the Justice Department for criminal investigation."
Several Whistleblowers have come forward over the years with information pertinent to the 9/11 attacks.
Some of these people are John M. Cole (Senior Counterintelligence Operations Manager-FBI), Bogdan Dzakovic (Former Red Team Leader-FAA), Sibel Edmonds (Language Specialist-FBI), Behrooz Sarshar (Language Specialist-FBI), Melvin A. Goodman (Former Senior Analyst/ Division Manager-CIA), Gilbert Graham (Retired Special Agent, Counterintelligence-FBI), Coleen Rowley (Retired Division Counsel- FBI),John Vincent (Retired Special Agent, Counterterrorism-FBI), Robert Wright (Veteran Special Agent, Counterterrorism-FB), Mark Burton(Senior Analyst- NSA), Mike German (Special Agent, Counterterrorism-FBI), Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer, and Scott Philpott.
Reporter Catherine Herridge on October 7th, 2010 wrote with regards to what is known as Able Danger, "it is made clear that "at least five witnesses questioned by the Defense Department's Inspector General told Fox News that their statements were distorted by investigators in the final IG's report — or it left out key information, backing up assertions that lead hijacker Mohammed Atta was identified a year before 9/11."
All of the FAA and NORAD after-action reports, accident investigations and public testimony advanced an account of 9/11 that was untrue." Kevin Delaney, the quality assurance manager for the New York Air Route Traffic Control Center, destroyed a tape recorded by six Air Traffic Controllers on the morning of 9/11 "by breaking up the plastic housing and cutting the tape into small fragments, depositing the remnants in trash cans throughout the Center."
Some 2.5 terabytes of information regarding Able Danger was destroyed in April/May 2000.
On 9/17/2001, NORAD gives a briefing to the White House. 9/11 Commissioner Bob Kerrey will say "it feels like something happened in that briefing that produced almost a necessity to deliver a story that's different than what actually happened on that day."
In 2003, a book was written by Gail Swanson entitled, "Behind-the-Scenes: Ground Zero" that is a "collection of personal accounts" from people that were at Ground Zero on that day. In that book, Firefighter Nicholas DeMasi says "at one point I was assigned to take Federal Agents around the site to search for the black boxes from the planes. There were a total of four black boxes. We found three." The 9/11 Commission says those black boxes were not found.
Dr. David Ray Griffin, which lists over 100 lies included in the official 9/11 Commission report. This article is an excellent summary/companion to Dr. Griffin's newest book, The 9/11Commission Report: Omissions and Distortions.
Dr. Griffin concludes his story with the comment: Why would the minds in charge of this final report engage in such deception if they were not trying to cover up very high crimes?"
Here is a summary of the lies:
1. The omission of evidence that at least six of the alleged hijackers are still alive.
2. The omission of the fact that the fires in the Twin Towers were not very big, very hot, or very long-lasting compared with fires in several steel-frame buildings that did not collapse.
3. The omission of the fact that, given the hypothesis that the collapses were caused by fire, the South Tower (which had smaller fires) which was struck later than the North Tower, should not have collapsed first.
4. The omission of the fact that WTC 7 (which was not hit by an airplane and which had only small, localized fires) also collapsed---an occurrence that FEMA admitted was a mystery.
5. The omission of the fact that the collapse of the Twin Towers (like that of Building 7) exemplified at least 10 features suggestive of controlled demolition.
6. The claim that the core of each of the Twin Towers was "a hollow steel shaft"---a claim that denied the existence of the 47 massive steel columns that in reality constituted the core of each tower and that, given the "pancake theory" of the collapses, should have still been sticking up many hundreds of feet in the air.
7a. The omission of the fact that because Building 7 had been evacuated before it collapsed.
7b. the official reason for the rapid removal of the steel was that some people might still be alive in the rubble under the steel---made no sense in this case.
8. The omission of Mayor Giuliani's statement that he had received word that the World Trade Center was going to collapse.
a. The omission of the report that Attorney General Ashcroft was warned to stop using commercial airlines prior to 9/11.
b. The omission of David Schippers' claim that he had, on the basis of information provided by FBI agents about upcoming attacks in lower Manhattan, tried unsuccessfully to convey this information to Attorney General Ashcroft during the six weeks prior to 9/11.
c. The omission of any mention of the FBI agents who reportedly claimed to have known the targets and dates of the attacks well in advance.
d. The omission of reports that both Mayor Willie Brown and some Pentagon officials received warnings about flying on 9/11.
e. The omission of Gerald Posner's report that Abu Zubaydah claimed that a Pakistani military officer, Mushaf Ali Mir, was closely connected to both the ISI and al-Qaeda and had advance knowledge of the 9/11 attacks.
9. The omission of the fact that there are photos showing that the west wing's façade of the Pentagon did not collapse until 30 minutes after the strike and also that the entrance hole appears too small for a Boeing 757 to have entered.
10. The omission of any discussion of whether the Pentagon has a anti-missile defense system that would have brought down a commercial airliner.
11. The omission of the fact that pictures from various security cameras---including the camera at the gas station across from the Pentagon, the film from which was reportedly confiscated by (people calming to be) FBI immediately after the strike---could presumably answer the question of what really hit the Pentagon.
12. The omission of Coleen Rowley's claim that some officials at FBI headquarters did see the memo from Phoenix agent Kenneth Williams.
13. The omission of Chicago FBI agent Robert Wright's charge that FBI headquarters closed his case on a terrorist cell, then used intimidation to prevent him from publishing a book reporting his experiences.
14. The omission of the 3.5 hours of testimony to the Commission by former FBI translator Sibel Edmonds--testimony that, according to her later public letter to Chairman Kean, revealed serious 9/11-related cover-ups by officials at FBI headquarters.
15. The omission of the fact that General Mahmoud Ahmad, the head of Pakistan's intelligence agency (the ISI), was in Washington the week prior to 9/11, meeting with CIA chief George Tenet and other US officials.
16. The omission of evidence that ISI chief Ahmad had ordered $100,000 to be sent to Mohamed Atta prior to 9/11.
17. The omission of the report that the Bush administration pressured Pakistan to dismiss Ahmad as ISI chief after the appearance of the story that he had ordered ISI money sent to Mohamed Atta.
18. The claim (lie) that in those days there were only two air force bases in NORAD's Northeast sector that kept fighters on alert and that, in particular, there were no fighters on alert at either McGuire or Andrews.
a. The omission of evidence that Andrews Air Force Base did keep several fighters on alert at all times.
b. The claim (lie) that the Otis AFB fighters were not airborne until seven minutes after they received the scramble order because they did not know where to go.
c. The omission of evidence that there were at least six bases with fighters on alert in the northeastern part of the United States.
19. The omission of any explanation of (a) why NORAD's earlier report, according to which the FAA had notified the military about the hijacking of Flight 175 at 8:43, was now to be considered false and (b) how this report, if it was false, could have been published and then left uncorrected for almost three years.
20. The failure to mention that the report that a large jet had crashed in Kentucky, at about the time Flight 77 disappeared from FAA radar, was taken seriously enough by the heads of the FAA and the FBI's counterterrorism unit to be relayed to the White House.
21. The lie that Flight 77 flew almost 40 minutes through American airspace towards Washington without being detected by the military's radar.
22. The failure to explain, if NORAD's earlier report that it was notified about Flight 77 at 9:24 was "incorrect," how this erroneous report could have arisen, i.e., whether NORAD officials had been lying or simply confused for almost three years.
23. The lie that the Langley AFB fighter jets, which NORAD had previously said were scrambled to intercept Flight 77, were actually scrambled in response to an erroneous report from an (unidentified) FAA controller at 9:21 that Flight 11 was still up and was headed towards Washington.
24. The omission of Secretary of Transportation Norman Mineta's testimony, given to the Commission itself, that Vice-President Cheney and others in the underground shelter were aware by 9:26 that an aircraft wasapproaching the Pentagon.
25. The lie that the fighter jets from Langley, which were allegedly scrambled to protect Washington from Flight 11, approaching the Pentagon, were nowhere near Washington because they were mistakenly sent out to sea, (east toward the Atlantic Ocean).
26. The lie that the military was not notified by the FAA about Flight 93's hijacking until after it crashed .
27. The lie that Vice President Cheney did not give the shoot-down authorization until after 10:10 (several minutes after Flight 93 had crashed) and that this authorization was not transmitted to the US military until 10:31.
a. The omission of multiple testimony, including that of Norman Mineta to the Commission itself, that Cheney was in the PEOC before 9:20.
b. The lie that Cheney did not reach the underground shelter (the PEOC) [Presidential Emergency Operations Center] until 9:58.
c. The lie that shoot-down authorization must be given by the President .
d. The omission of reports that Colonel Marr ordered a shoot-down of Flight 93 and that General Winfield indicated that he and others at the NMCC had expected a fighter jet to reach Flight 93 .
28. The omission of all the evidence indicating that Flight 93 was shot down by a military plane.
29. The failure to probe the issue of how the "war games" scheduled for that day were related to the military's failure to intercept the hijacked airliners.
30. The omission of the report that Osama bin Laden, who already was America's "most wanted" criminal, was treated in July 2001 by an American doctor in the American Hospital in Dubai and visited by the local CIA agent.
31. The omission of reports, including the report of a visit to Osama bin Laden at the hospital in Dubai by the head of Saudi intelligence .
32. The failure to point out that the White House first sought to prevent the creation of a 9/11 Commission, then placed many obstacles in its path, including giving it extremely meager funding.
