So, I got this rather long thing that I at first felt was sensationalist but then realized it seemed pretty realistic and has many true insights. There is so much to it that it really does get overwhelming and... downright scary. Please spend 15 minutes and read this. (I'd post a link, but it came to my hotmail account). It is too long to copy and paste as one post, so I've cut it into several...


Who Benefits



                            from the World Trade Center/Pentagon Attacks?



     Who Benefits? That's always the first question to consider when a

"terrorist" attack occurs. Instead of clenching one's fist, waving

     one's flag and shouting vindictive slogans, let's just stop for a

moment of calm analysis of the basic facts. When we analyze who

     benefits, we immediately will know with over 99% surety, who did

it!



     What was the tone of U.S. and world opinion just a week or two

before the attacks?



     In the U.S., the economy was lagging badly, the stock market was

falling, many were questioning if the government's taxes were

     legal, the Gary Condit case had been poorly handled, people

continued to question Waco and the Oklahoma City bombing, they

     questioned our support of Israel in her policies regarding the

Palestinians, and the approval rate of President Bush was low.



     What about World Opinion? Just 8 days before the

WTC/Pentagon attacks, Israel was stunned by a UN decision equating

     Zionism with Racism, according to Ha'aretz Daily.com.



     Israel was branded a "racist apartheid" state by thousands of non-

governmental organizations (NGOs) attending a U.N. World

     Conference Against Racism in Durban, South Africa. The

conference was attended by representatives of 153 governments.



     The declaration, adopted by 3,000 NGOs in 44 regional and

interest-based caucuses, shocked Jewish groups.



     Foreign Minister Shimon Peres called the anti-Israel declarations a

disgrace, and said that Israel was "seriously" contemplating

     withdrawing from the conference in protest. The Israeli delegation

to the conference blasted the language of the NGO declaration as

     an incitement to hatred of Jews.



     Jewish delegates walked out. The U.S. delegates followed.



     The Forum accused the Jewish state of "systematic perpetration of racist

crimes including war crimes, acts of genocide and

     ethnic cleansing" in its treatment of the Palestinians.



     In addition, the head of the Danish Red Cross, Freddy Karup Pederson, 

told

the Danish Parliamentary Foreign Affairs Committee

     that the lifestyle of Jewish settlers in the Palestinian territories

resembles that of whites under the former racist apartheid system. He

     also criticized Israel's collective punishment of the Palestinian

population.



     There is NO doubt that Israel is a racist state. Its own human-rights

advocates call it that. The laws of the state of Israel allow a

     Jew anywhere in the world to become a citizen of Israel, but a Palestinian

driven out of his own country, deprived of his home and all

     his possessions in 1948, cannot return. There are certain neighborhoods 

in

Israel where a Palestinian cannot be issued a building

     permit, nor have the opportunity to buy or rent a home.



     Wouldn't the ACLU scream racism if those laws were applied to the Jews - 

or

to the Blacks - in this country.



     The U.S. Was Set to Support Palestinian Statehood!



     The Bush administration planned to promote and support the recognition 

of a

Palestinian state in a speech to be given by

     Secretary Colin L. Powell, "but the plan was derailed by the Sept. 11

terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon,"

     according on the Washington Post, Oct 2, 2001. Powell had planned to

discuss the initiative with Prince Bandar bin Sultan, the

     Saudi ambassador to the United States on Sept. 13!



     Even AFTER the attack, on Oct.2, President Bush announced that creating 

a

Palestinian state has "always" been part of the U.S.

     vision for peace in the Middle East. (WorldNetDaily, Oct. 2, 2001) This

infuriated Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon who warned

     (threatened) that this could "backfire" on the U.S. and would possibly be

counter-productive in the long run. Sharon then "compared

     the US coalition-building in the Arab world to British appeasement of the

Nazis in the 1930s," which made President Bush "furious."

     (Jerusalem - Reuters Oct 5, and The Guardian, Oct 6)



     So you can see that there is real tension between U.S. President Bush,

whose family has been in the oil business with

     Osama bin Laden and bin Laden's family, (American Freedom News 

10-3-01) and

the Israeli government of Ariel Sharon.The

     Mossad, the Israeli spy agency equivalent of our CIA, has infiltrated the

U.S. CIA, and for all intents and purposes, runs our CIA from

     behind the scenes, as former President John Kennedy found out when he

attempted to dis-assemble the CIA in 1963 because of

     insubordination by the Israeli double agents working inside that

organization.



     To put it bluntly, Kennedy's head was blown off on television for the whole

world to see, as a warning to any future president who

     might even think about resisting the aims of Israel.



     Other reasons Kennedy was shot are: 1) He had signed a bill to print

U.S.Treasury bills (as the Constitution requires) rather than

     Federal Reserve notes (what we are using now) which would have 

eliminated

the Federal Reserve Banking system, a Central bank

     which is necessary for Israel to control the U.S. money supply. Look who

owns and runs the Federal Reserve Banking system - Alan

     Greenspan and the other Wall Street Bankers whose allegiance is to Israel

and a One World Government instead of an allegiance to

     America. (A Central Bank is one of the 10 Planks of the Communist

Manifesto)



     By the way, the Federal Reserve Bank is NOT Federally owned. It is named

"Federal" to deliberately mislead you. The Federal

     Reserve Bank is PRIVATELY owned, it has NO "Reserves", and it is

unconstitutional and therefore illegal. It is solely responsible for

     our "National Debt" which is fraudulent and criminal!



     2) Kennedy had also signed an order to get the U.S. out of Vietnam. This

angered the same group of bankers who make money off

     of wars by one group funding one side of the war, and another group 

funding

the other side of the war - so they ALL make money.

     Besides, the war was demoralizing our country which greatly pleased 

these

bankers, whose allegiance is NOT to America, but to

     International Jewry - and the ushering in of a One World Government.



     3) Bobby Kennedy, the U.S. Attorney General and the President's brother,

was imprisoning and deporting high level members of the

     Mafia, which was (and is) run NOT by the Italians, but by the Jews. At that

time, Meyer Lansky was the Mob leader, and remember

     the movie about "Bugsy Siegel"? The name Siegel is NOT Italian.



     Those are just a few of the motives for assassinating President Kennedy.

For more information on the assassination of President

     John F. Kennedy, read the book Final Judgment: The Missing Link in the JFK

Assassination Conspiracy, by Michael Collins Piper,

     published by Wolfe Press, Washington D.C. ISBN: 0-935036-47-4.

on this book may be available by calling American

     Free Press at 202-544-5977.



     There is also in-fighting within the the Israeli government itself. Evil

ALWAYS causes dissension and unrest. "Israel's foreign

     minister, Shimon Peres, is accusing senior army officers of plotting to

kill the Palestinian leader, Yasser Arafat." The extraordinary

     accusation is contained in an interview published in Yediot Ahronoth, a

leading Israeli daily. Peres had worked out a cease-fire with

     Arafat but the "army began a mud-slinging campaign to undermine him." 

Mr.

Arafat, during a visit to Egypt, said an agreement he

     reached with Mr. Peres last week, reaffirming a previous ceasefire, was

being intentionally undermined by Israeli political and

     military officials." (The Telegraph Oct 2, 2001)



     Israeli Foreign Minister Peres purportedly wants to make peace with the

Palestinians while Prime Minister Sharon allows his military

     to undermine all of Peres' efforts.



     "Middle East Truce in Tatters - Israeli Armed Forces Kill Six Palestinians

in Retaliation," screamed the Jerusalem headlines

     (Reuters - Oct 4, 2001). The next day, on Oct 5, Israeli tanks and forces

raided a Palestinian area of the West Bank city of Hebron,

     capturing positions and killing at least five Palestinians. (Reuters - Oct.

5, 2001)



     So, just 8 days before the attacks, the overwhelming attitude of the

nations of the world was against Israel's policies and

     in support of the Arab countries' charges against Israel, a nation heavily

supported by, and allied with, the U.S.

Nude Spock, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

What has happened to U.S. and World Opinion

                                                SINCE the attacks?

     Immediately AFTER the attack, public opinion was turned 180 degrees. Now the Arab countries are being demonized, the U.S.      population is overwhelmingly backing the President (according to the Washington Post), urging him to punish, kill, destroy, annihilate      the perpetrators of this crime, even though no one really has any proof who did it, the U.S. government is preparing for war, the U.S.      and Israel have carte blanche support to bomb nearly every Arab country out of existence.

     No one is questioning anymore the "apartheid" policies of the Israelis against the Palestinians. War, as politicians have      known throughout history, stimulates the economy and (if the propaganda is handled properly) unifies the population behind the      President and squelches ALL criticism.

     Anyone who is not 100% behind the President is considered a traitor. President Bush in a televised Speech to Congress,      urged global support for his war on terrorists, warning the world: "either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists." (Washington      AFP) 9-21-01 (An effective way to stifle all dissent!)

     If you don't go along with the plan for destruction of the Arabs advocated by the government, you become the target of threats and      must have bodyguards, as California Democrat Barbara Lee has discovered. She cast the lone vote in Congress against the use of      military force in response to the WTC/Pentagon attacks and now must have Police guarding her Capitol Hill office. (Reuters, AP,      ABCNEWS.com      9-18-01)

     "Americans support stronger anti-terror ties with Israel," announced the Jerusalem Post (10-4-01). "Nearly 75% of Americans      favor either strengthening ties with Israel or maintaining the current relationship. . . Almost as many Americans (82%) agree that      Israel should do 'whatever is necessary' to root out terrorism as those who believe that the U.S. government should do 'whatever is      necessary,'" according to a poll conducted under the auspices of - - - - -The Institue for Jewish and Community Research - - - -      (Could this poll possibly be biased?).

                              What ELSE has happened since the attacks?

     1) The population has been prepared for a long term war where the number of U.S. casualties will be high (Washington Post      Online September 21, 2001).

     2) Bush creates a High Office of "Homeland Security" supposedly to protect Americans from attack. The job would involve      coordination of government-wide domestic security efforts, including meshing domestic FBI and foreign CIA intelligence, working      with U.S. military, emergency officials and state and local governments under the umbrella of FEMA, the Federal Emergency      Management Agency, the organization specifically set up to oversee Martial Law when it is openly declared.

     The Homeland Defense position "would probably not need Senate confirmation, which other Cabinet jobs require, nor legislation to      create" White House officials said. So there would be no investigation, oversight nor accountability for this person. (Reuters -      Washington 9-21-01) (Perfect conditions to appoint a crony)

     3) U.S. orders 40 million doses of smallpox vaccine for $343 million in preparation for a possible bioterrorism assault. The      contract has been given to a small, Cambridge-based firm, Acambis, a British biotechnology company who reported a net loss of $8      million in the six months prior to June 30, unchanged from last year. (How convenient to get this huge order! It would be interesting to      find out the conflict of interest issues here.) (Reuters News, London 9-20-01) PREPARING THE POPULATION TO EXPECT      BIO-TERRORISM.

     4) "America and Britain are producing secret plans to launch a ten year "war on terrorism" - Operation Noble Eagle -      involving a completely new military and diplomatic strategy to eliminate terrorist networks and cells around the world." (The Times -      London 9-20-01)

     5) The Senate OKs FBI Spying on the Internet: FBI agents soon will be able to spy on Internet users legally without a court order.      Two days after the terrorist attack, the Senate approved the "Combating Terrorism Act of 2001" which enhances police wiretap      powers and permits monitoring in more situations. The FBI's surveillance system is called Carnivore. (Lycos Network 9-20-01)      MORE CONTROL!

     6) The U.S. Plans to overthrow Taliban and put Afghanistan under UN Control, according to The Guardian - London (9-21-01)      NOTE: Yugoslavia is ALREADY under UN control. (MORE UN CONTROL)

     7) A global surveillance system known as Echelon exists and has the ability to eavesdrop on telephone calls, faxes and e-mail      messages, a European Parliament committee has concluded. (Lycos Network 9-20-01) MORE CONTROL!

     8) Face-ID Technology gains new support. "State lawmakers who were planning to sponsor legislation restricting its use now      say they are reassessing their plans." MORE CONTROL! (Denver Post Capitol Bureau, 9-20-01)

     9) "Experts See a High-Security America of Surveillance & Seizures": New York: Security Experts in the United States are      describing a new kind of country that could emerge, where electronic identification might become the norm, immigrants might be      tracked far more closely and the airspace over cities like New York and Washington might be off-limits to all civilian aircraft." (The      International Herald Tribune 9-19-01) MORE SURVEILLANCE OF U.S. CITIZENS.

     10) "Lawmakers See Need to Loosen Rules on CIA" Congressional leaders who oversee the nation's intelligence system have      concluded that America's spy agencies should be allowed to combat terrorism with more aggressive tactics, including the hiring of      unsavory foreign agents, including revived discussion of reversing the US 25 year ban on using covert agents to assassinate      foreigners. R. James Woolsey, the former director of the CIA said that "Washington has absolutely undergone a sea change in      thinking this week." (New York Times, 9-16-01) MORE SURVEILLANCE OF U.S. CITIZENS!

     11) NATO Announces a Third World War is Almost Upon Us. A pentagon spokesman hinted towards potential targets being      Libya, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, North Korea, Syria and others. (NATO Secretary-General Lord Robertson)

     12) California Congresswoman, Mary Bono, R-Palm Springs warned that the country should prepare for a fight against international      terrorists that will likely include personal sacrifice, the use of ground troops overseas and the risk of retaliation against civilians by the      enemy. She also predicts intense scrutiny of airline passengers, a national system of fingerprinting and identification cards      and the specter of chemical and biological attacks on the U.S. (The Desert Sun 9-18-01)

     13) An enemy is needed to justify a $344 Billion War Budget, when the federal government currently spends only $42 billion on      education, $26 billion on affordable housing and $1 billion on school construction.

     14) President Bush sent his anti-terrorism bill to Congress one week after the WTC/Pentagon attack, launching an emotional      debate that will force U.S. politicians to choose between continued freedom for Americans or greater security. (Lycos Network      9-20-01) DOES ANYBODY KNOW HOW LONG IT TAKES TO WRITE ONE OF THESE BILLS? IT TAKES MONTHS! They are      hundreds of pages long. THIS ONE WAS OBVIOUSLY WRITTEN BEFORE THE ATTACK! How convenient! Wake up America!

     15) "President George Bush focused his energy on building a GLOBAL ALLIANCE for a fight against terrorism..." (MSNBC      9-18-01) Here comes the New World Order!

     16) Fast-Moving House Bill Restricts Liberties - Much of it Unrelated to Terrorism! Congress is being asked to rush to pass      emergency anti-terrorist legislation written by the Department of Justice, but much of the legislation turns out to have nothing to do      with fighting terrorism. Instead, the legislation contains a host of items which have been on the bureaucratic wish lists for many years.

     17) "We Must Ignore the Peace Lobby and Show No Restraint" says The Independent - London (9-24-01)

     18) Bush Suspends Habeas Corpus: Legal Immigrants May Be Held Without Cause: "The Bush Administration today      announced it is using its powers under the National Emergency Act to suspend the right of Habeas Corpus for all immigrants in the      country, including legal immigrants, meaning that any immigrant in the U.S. right now can be held INDEFINITELY by the      police or government WITHOUT TRIAL OR DEMONSTRATION OF CAUSE TO HOLD THEM."

     Though no one has yet suggested infringing the rights of U.S. citizens, the move is a frightening first step to a national tyranny, based      on perpetual suspension of the Constitution in the name of fighting perpetual war."

     19) President Bush has agreed to bail out the airlines with BILLIONS of dollars, an industry that was swimming in red ink      LONG BEFORE the WTC/Pentagon attacks.

     20) New York City is now a Police State (New York Post 9-27-01)

     21) Secrets, Gold, Silver, Guns And Drugs Lie Under WTC Rubble: "Vital evidence in the fight against organized crime and      terrorism may be lost forever in the rubble of the World Trade Center... Beneath the haunting presence of thousands presumed dead,      Ground Zero is rich with documents, guns, heroin, cocaine, Ecstasy and other evidence collected by the CIA and US Secret Service,      evidence from crimes that now may never be prosecuted." Also buried in the wreckage are millions of dollars in gold bars and art      tresaures. ABC News reported growing concern at the presence of trucking firms and cleanup workers with organized crime      connections. (New Zealand Herald - 10-8-01)

     22) Following Attacks, Courtrooms Become Secret, Documents Sealed: "The U.S. terror investigation that has hauled in      hundreds of Middle Easterners is being conducted with closed court hearings and sealed documents on a scale legal experts say      may be unprecedented. Federal authorities have detained more than 500 people without releasing the paperwork that usually      accompanies nearly any type of court proceeding." (Associated press, Sacramento Bee, 10-5-01)

     23) NATO to Deploy Surveillance Aircraft in U.S.: NATO will soon deploy surveillance aircraft for anti-terrorist operations in the      United States in response to the attacks on New York and Washington, NATO officials said. (Reuters 10-7-01)

Nude Spock, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

On the surface? I think that's ridiculously anti-semitic propaganda.

Samantha, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

 What was known BEFORE the attack -

                                                    and by whom?

     1) Echelon Gave Authorities 3 Month Warning of Attacks - German Paper: Frankfurt, Germany - U.S. and Israeli intelligence      agencies received warning signals at least three months ago that terrorists were planning to hijack commercial aircraft to use as      weapons to attack important symbols of American culture, according to a story in Germany's daily Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeiung      (FAZ). Newsbytes.com

     2) U.S. planned to attack Taliban BEFORE WTC/Pentagon Attacks: A former Pakistani diplomat has told the BBC that the U.S.      was planning military action against Osama Bin Laden and the Taliban even before last week's attacks. Niaz Naik, a former      Pakistani Foreign Secretary, was told by senior American officials in mid-July that military action against Afghanistan would go      ahead by the middle of October. (BBC News 9-18-01)

     3) Expert - Russia Knew In Advance...Encouraged Citizens to Cash Out Dollars:      Russian press accounts and other activities by the Russian government this summer indicate that the Russians knew in advance that      something would happen to America, including a "financial attack" against the U.S. During the past three months, Russian media      and officials have encouraged citizens to cash out of U.S. dollars pending an economic collapse there after an "attack."      (NewsMax.com 9-17-01)

     4) FBI tracked man in custody 2 weeks before attacks: "Two weeks before the terrorist attacks in New York City and      Washington, D.C., FBI agents were at a flight school in Oklahoma asking questions about a man now suspected of having a link to      those attacks", according to CNN.

     "The fact that FBI agents were at the Airman Flight School in Norman, Oklahoma, two weeks before any attacks would seem to      contradict the agency's assertion that it was not aware of any connection between aviation schools and suspected      terrorists. FBI Director Robert Mueller has stated publicly, "There were NO warning signs that I'm aware of that would indicate this      type of operation in the country," (CNN.com 9-18-01) SOMEBODY IS LYING!

     5) U.S. Pulled Plug on 500 Arab/Muslim Websites the Day BEFORE Jetliner Attacks: Five hundred websites - many of them      with an Arab or Muslim connection - crashed when an anti-terrorism task force raided InfoCom Corporation in Texas. The 80-strong      task force that descended upon the IT company included FBI agents, Secret Service agents, Diplomatic Security agents, tax      inspectors, immigration officials, customs officials, department of commerce officials and computer experts. (Brian Whitaker      9-12-01)

     6) U.S. was warned in 1995 of plot to hijack planes, attack buildings: The FBI was warned six years ago of a terrorist plot to      hijack commercial planes and slam them into the Pentagon, The CIA headquarters and other buildings, Philippine investigators told      CNN. The plan was termed Project Bojinka. (Manila, Philippines CNN 9-18-01)

     7) "U.S. Government Had Prior Knowledge of Emergency: The most massive so-called "terrorist" attacks on U.S. soil since the      Oklahoma City bombings of 1995, were known, a week ahead of time, by the American CIA. Among the foreign intelligence      agencies who penetrated the plots were the French CIA and Israel's The Mossad, units of both often working with one another.

     "Foreign intelligence sources confirm the validity of this story. And they state that they informed the U.S. secret police who      absolutely failed, neglected, and outright refused to take action as to known prior specifics of which the top-level of the CIA were      informed in advance." (www.skolnicksreport.com 9-13-01) HOW INTERESTING!

     8) Spy in the White House? "Terrorists" had Ultra Secret Codes on 911: (DEBKA Intelligence Files 9-22-01)

     9) "Instant Messages to Israel Warned of WTC Attack." Officials at the instant-messaging firm Odigo confirmed that two      employees received text messages warning (notifying?) of an attack on the World Trade Center two hours before the event occurred.      (The Washington Post Company, 10-1-01)

     10) Did Israelis Have Foreknowledge? Suspected Israeli Agents Held by FBI: "At least three different groups of Israelis --      some of whom may have ties to Israel's intelligence agency, the Mossad -- were taken into custody after eye-witnesses reported      seeing them videotaping the initial kamikaze attack on the World Trade Center in New York, and then celebrating with joy and      mockery." The "Israeli tourists" were found carrying maps linking them to the blasts and other incriminating evidence. (American      Free Press, 10-1-01) Other "illegal immigrants" arrested reportedly worked for an Israeli-owned "moving company" based in New      Jersey.

     American Free Press has received additional reports that one of the largest Israeli-owned moving companies in the area, Moishe's      Moving Systems, in Jersey City, has "at least 100" young Israeli men, between the ages of 22 and 35, working in what is described      as a "fortress" with covered windows and concertina wire surrounding the premises near the entrance to the Holland Tunnel."

     11) FAA Warned of Violent Suspects Travel: "Two weeks before the Sept 11 attacks on the United States, The Federal Aviation      Administration warned airlines and airports that individuals with links to terror networks were planning to fly on U.S. airlines, a      Mexican magazine reported. The Aug 28 memo listed the names of suspects and ordered airlines and airports to take measures to      prevent them from boarding passenger planes, the report said." (Reuters, Mexico City 10-6-01)

     12) More Unusual Market Activity Reported BEFORE Attacks: "Chicago traders on Wednesday cited unusual activity in airline      options up to a month before attacks on U.S. landmarks, and German bankers reported brisk activity in reinsurer Munich Re shares,      adding to speculation that those behind the attacks tried to profit from their acts. (Reuters 9-20-01)

     So how come EVERYONE else knew this was going to happen? Why would the U.S. refuse to investigate when told, unless it was      their own plan all along?

Nude Spock, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

BIG CLUE!!

                        Why did the Towers IMPLODE instead of EXPLODE?

     The towers came down as gracefully as a fountain of water. "Too methodical to be a chance result of airplanes colliding with      the structures" said Van Romero, vice president for research at New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology.

     "My opinion is that after the airplanes hit the World Trade Center there were some explosive devices inside the buildings      that caused the towers to collapse," Romero said. Romero is a former director of the Energetic Materials Research and Testing      Center at Tech, which studies explosive materials and the effects of explosions on buildings, aircraft and other structures.

     The Towers IMPLODED! They did NOT explode! A fuel fire causes an EXplosion, not an IMplosion. Explosions explode OUT.      Implosions, implode IN!

     IMPLOSIONS can ONLY occur with immense planning by a highly skilled group of craftsmen educated in the unique skill of      demolishing buildings by strategically placing explosive devices within the building. This requires many experts, much time and      significant access to the building beforehand.

     The skill of implosion of buildings was developed primarily to demolish buildings in areas of high building density, so the destruction      of the structure will not cause damage to the surrounding buildings.

     In addition, the towers came down long after the planes struck. To suggest that fuel dumping from the airplanes caused a fire hot      enough to melt the inner structure is ludicrous.

     First of all, who can prove the planes dumped all of their fuel into the core of the building?

     Second, why did the fuel take so long to catch fire?

     Third, fuel-fires cause EXplosions, NOT IMplosions!

     Fourth, the structure was built to withstand temperatures of 2000 degrees Fahrenheit, according to the architect and designer of the      building, a man who is now deceased, but who preserved this nugget of information in an interview he recorded in 1998.

     Hyman Brown, a University of Colorado civil engineering professor and the World Trade Center's construction manager, watched in      confusion as the towers came down. "It was over-designed to withstand almost anything including hurricanes, high winds, bombings      and an airplane hitting it," he said. (Scripps Howard News Service 9-11,01 and 9-12-01)

     Eye Witness Report: Ross Milanytch, an eyewitness, described seeing "small explosions on each floor," a situation that is      consistent with a man-made deliberate implosion. Mr. Milantych was in his office on the 22nd floor of a building a couple of blocks      away, according to the magazine America at War article entitled, "They Saw It Happen: Eyewitness accounts to the World Trade      Center Attack."

     So, why was it necessary to implode the whole structure? To eliminate evidence, just as was done to the Murrah building in      Oklahoma City, before the forensic specialists could get in to examine the evidence.

     Just like the Branch Davidian compound at Waco was bulldozed by the government before any evidence could be examined.

     Conclusion: This was a highly skilled endeavor by a large group of well-trained people with access to the buildings, the airplanes      and the explosives. They would have had to blend into the population and not look suspicious.

     Question: Who would have these qualifications? Certainly not a large group of Arab "terrorists"!

                              Where are the "Indestructible" Black Boxes?

     All four Black Boxes were supposedly destroyed and rendered unusable in spite of the fact that they are designed      specifically for plane crashes which result in insurmountable conditions. In fact there are reported to be TWO Black Boxes on each      plane, but apparently ALL EIGHT of the Black Boxes are completely destroyed.

     Strange indeed!

     ABC News Reports: The Black Box is "ALMOST INDESTRUCTIBLE. IT IS DESIGNED TO WITHSTAND HEAT OF UP TO      2,000 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT FOR ONE HOUR, salt water for at least 30 days, immersion in a variety of liquids such as jet fuel      and lubricants, AND AN IMPACT OF 3,400 G's. By comparison, astronauts are typically exposed to up to six Gs during a shuttle      takeoff."

     Yet CNN reported that "In New York, several blocks from the ruins of the World Trade Center, a passport authorities said belonged to      one of the hijackers was discovered a few days ago, according to city Police Commissioner Bernard Kerik."

                                    The paper passport apparently survived intact!

                                   The "indestructible Black Boxes were destroyed!

Nude Spock, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Hmmm!

                                      Who Has Claimed Responsibility?

     Within HOURS after the attack the U.S. was aggressively touting Osama bin Laden as the "terrorist" responsible for this dastardly      deed. As one writer to a popular website noted, "I find it laughable that the agency notorious for its inability to find a      bleeding elephant in a snowbank suddenly (within hours of the attack) has the culprit pinpointed!"

     The media continuously whips up the public to indiscriminate hatred of almost any Arab. On radio, on TV, in the newspapers and in      magazines, all one hears or reads is HATE towards Osama bin Laden, or any other Muslim. The Globe, a well-known grocery store      rag, contains pictures of Osama Bin Laden with rifle "cross-hairs" targeted over his face and a soldier in fatigues pointing an      automatic rifle at his head. Yet these same media outlets pompously demand the elimination of "hate!"

     It is USUAL and CUSTOMARY for Terrorist groups to claim responsibility for an attack. Yet no such claim has been made.

     Osama bin Laden says he didn't do it. "We have been blamed in the past, but we were not involved," he said. (The      Guardian - London 9-17-01)

     "Egyptian President Mubarak still has not seen bin Laden proof," according to a Paris AFP report. "Egyptian President Hosni      Mubarak says he has not seen any proof of Osama bin Laden being "the brains" behind the terrorist attacks on the United States      and warns Washington against over-hasty reprisals, in a newspaper interview published on 9-24-01.

     Missing - Crucial Facts From the Official Charges Against bin Laden: "It was too good to be true. We were told we would be      getting evidence of Osama bin Laden's guilt. Instead, close analysis of the 21-page document put out by the Government on      Thursday reveals a report of conjecture, supposition and unsubstantiated assertions of fact. It uses every trick in the drafter's arsenal      to make the reader believe they are reading something they are not: a damning indictment of Mr bin Laden for the events of      September 11." (The Independent - London, 10-7-01)

     The US Created the Taliban: "Deposed Afghan President Burhanuddin Rabbani hit out at United States policy in Afghanistan,      accusing it of having created the ruling Taliban. 'After the defeat of Soviet troops, the US completely forgot our country,' he said.      'Washington afterwards created the Taliban, at the side of Pakistan, supported and armed them to overcome my Islamic      government," Rabbani said in an interview with the Frankfurter Allegmeine Zeitung. (10-6-01)

     Saddam Hussein, in a letter to the American People noted that "when the event took place, Arab rulers and the rulers of countries      whose religions is Islam, rushed to condemn the event." (Iraqi News Agency 916-01)

     There are even reports that Osama bin Laden has been, and may still now be, an operative of the U.S. CIA.

     And now, according to The Washington Post (9-25-01), The U.S. is now "Unsure" of Going Public with the "Proof" of Osama      bin Laden's responsibility for the "terrorist" attack. With the U.S. public, and other nations, demanding proof, the Bush administration      is hiding behind the cloak of "National Security."

     Secretary of State Colin Powell promised that the U.S. "soon" would "put out a paper. . that will describe quite clearly the evidence      that we have linking" bin Laden to the attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon. But Rep. Porter Goss (R-Fla), chairman of      the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, said that the administration cannot present its full case "without      revealing some sources and methods that we would not want to reveal." HOW INTERESTING AND CONVENIENT FOR THEM!

                                               Now Let's Consider -

                             Are There Other Countries, besides the Arabs,

                                who have ever been involved in terrorism?

     According to the Washington Report, "In 1967 on the fourth day of the Six Day War, the armed forces of Israel attacked the      American intelligence ship USS Liberty for 90 minutes in international waters in broad daylight following several hours of close,      low-level reconnaissance. Thirty-four men died, 171 were hurt, and the ship was so badly damaged that it had to be scrapped.

     The government of Israel has lied about the circumstances ever since, telling a story markedly different from that told by American      survivors. Congress has refused to question Israel's demonstrably false account.

     Why would Israel risk alienating its American friends? Why did Israel attack?

     According to eyewitness accounts by Israeli officers and journalists, the Israeli Army executed as many as 1,000 Arab prisoners      during the 1967 war. Historian Gabby Bron wrote in the Yediot Ahronot in Israel that he witnessed Israeli troops executing Egyptian      prisoners on the morning of June 8, 1967, in the Sinai town of El Arish, including about 150 Egyptian POWs. They made the      prisoners dig their own graves then they were shot as they stood at the edge of the grave.

     As those executions were underway, America's most sophisticated intelligence platform, USS Liberty, was less than 13 miles      from El Arish, close enough to see the town mosque with the naked eye. With binoculars one could make out individual buildings and      might have seen the executions if one had looked in the right place.

     The attack on the USS Liberty lasted 75 minutes. It was not brief nor accidental as Israel claims. The Israelis wantonly      destroyed life rafts in the water and they jammed international radio distress frequencies while Americans, who might have been      saved, died!

     Why Are The Israelis Revealing ALL U.S. Nuclear Secrets? Debka, an Israel-based news and intelligence analysis portal, is      claiming that "US nuclear weapons have been deployed in four former Soviet Central Asian bases." The weapons are described as      "small neutron bombs, which emit strong radiation, nuclear mines, shells and other nuclear ammunition suited to commando warfare      in mountainous terrain." US military leaders will make no comment on this issue, but WHY would Israel be revealing these U.S.      secrets?

     The United States is no stranger to perpetrating acts of terrorism against other countries. The U.S. bombed Iraq      unmercifully during the Gulf War. Thousands of private citizens were slaughtered. Then a deadly embargo was put in place to destroy      them slowly by illness and starvation. What was the crime of the common people?

     The U.S. CIA has also been involved in covert wars all over the globe, raping and pillaging entire economies of Central American      and other countries.

     In addition, the U.S. is not above turning on its own citizens with vengeance.

     FDR Knew About Pearl Harbor: John Flynn made a sound case for Roosevelt's foreknowledge in 1946, the historian Charles      Beard confirmed it in 1948 with his book FDR and the Coming of the War 1941. John Toland told the story in Infamy in the early      1980s, and John Stinnett followed with Day of Deceit. They all understood FDR's manipulation of, and complicity in, the      attack on Pearl Harbor. It was done to incite the U.S. citizens to hate the Japanese and push them to support the U.S. entry into      World War II.

     And it worked beautifully! Americans willingly gave their own lives and the lives of their sons to fight a war that had nothing to do with      them.

     FDR knew in advance of the attack on Pearl Harbor. Not only did he refuse to stop it, he encouraged it by his manipulative      treatment of Japan prior to the attack, and his stationing of ships in the Hawaiian port, an easy target for the Japanese.      (Antiwar.com)

     It worked magnificently then - and it is working magnificently now!

     Other acts of violence that must be considered are: The Randy Weaver family killings by the U.S. government in Idaho, the Waco      horror where the U.S. shot, bulldozed and set on fire its own citizens, and the Oklahoma bombing, where there is abundant      information pointing to U.S. Government involvement .

     Why would a government plan an attack its own citizens, while blaming another?

     What would it have to gain?

     The answer is: EVERYTHING!

                                                  SINCE the attack:

Sorry for the poor formatting but I couldn't bother to take the time to put paragraph breaks throughout that whole thing, so I just used the preformat tag and pasted in the email.

Thanks for reading that, if you did. Some definitely freaky stuff in there.

Nude Spock, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Samantha, on the surface, yes. You couldn't have possibly read all and, by the way, the part regarding Zionism being racism and Israel being racist is actually true, but it seems to be pointing the finger at Israel rather than Osama and that *does* seem a bit like "the jews run hollywood", but the rest of it is even more intriguing to me (i.e. the second half that I posted after your last post).

Nude Spock, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I dunno, I actually bothered to read the whole thing, despite my initial reaction and I was surprised that it gave me a lot to think about. I am beginning to think it was our own government, for obvious reasons, and that really sucks. New World Order. If you trace the Bush family, you will see that they've been involved in all kinds of shit back to Sr. Bush's great grandfather, really nasty business scams not unlike Enron, Nazis, all kinds of crap...

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Ned, if you know a way to QUICKLY format a huge email, let me know. As I said, I just used the < pre> tag so it wouldn't all run together as one HUGE paragraph.

Nude Spock, Friday, 1 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Yeah, I know what you mean. After reading this, the final conspiracy theory, I will tolerate, I don't want to think about it... or know what to think, frankly. I remember in the beginning, people on this board were saying the whole thing was suspicious, but since I think people have resigned themselves to the idea that CNN is covering it in depth and are sick of hearing about it.

Nude Spock, Friday, 1 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

My swearing wasn't directed at you so much as at myself for not being able to close the format deal. The pre tags work as well as anything.

Certainly the whole story, or at least the end results of the planning, have been covered and then some by now. My own thought on the matter is that this is precisely the type of thing that circulates after big events, the wishful thinking of the paranoid. It's quite clear the US was going to openly push for Palestinian statehood, but right now I think BushCo (specially Powell, who is probably the only Cabinet member to actively care) seems fed up to the teeth with both sides. The only problem with that is that the balance of power then still resides with Israel, so forget negotiation. Not so much conspiracy theory as it is annoyance.

Ned Raggett, Friday, 1 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Heh, just seeing the post title again, I can't believe I wrote "must read!" It sounds like spam! Anyway, the IRS and the Federal Reserve are actually private, I just learned on thee auld 'net. A dollar was supposed to be a reserve note that meant a certain amount of pure silver or gold coin was stored for you in the bank. Now, money has taken the actual place of the value of a metal and there is no coin saved for you in a bank. Looking into it, I can see how inflation rose so quickly, since it profits those who are literally in the "money making" business. It's pretty sad, really. There is absolutely no way the common people have any say in anything the government wants to do anymore, I think. Really, what can you do? Protest? Yeah, that always works.

Tadeusz Suchodolski, Friday, 1 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

There was a documentary on here that showed how it all could have happened without explosives etc, it's due to the style of construction of really tall, quickly built skyscrapers and the fact that they rely on their relatively flimsy floors for torsional rigidity, once one or two go the whole lot becomes unstable.

Kerry Keane, Friday, 1 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Can't be bothered ploughing past the Nudester's rubbish formatting at present, but the opening claim (not his, I know) — "When we analyze who benefits, we immediately will know with over 99% surety who did it!" — is retarded lizard-people blabber, enough so to make me not bother w.the rest. Sometimes people start wars they are convinced they will win, except because they miscalculate, they prove to be very wrong. The claim that all wars ever were started by the eventual winners is just goofy.

don't know about the jewsih thing, though i was suprised to learn only one of the towers was insured, that an Oz jew had bought the buildings two weeks before, and last week said business (westfield, me thinks) registered its highest profit ever...

but definielty believe that US knew all along that it was going to happen, that huge coverup is involved etc... here's a good starter http://www.sydney.indymedia.org/front.php3? article_id=10121&group=webcast

goeff, Friday, 1 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I think it's more accurate to say that there were general warnings but that they were not followed up on -- and that could be the biggest crime of all.

Ned Raggett, Friday, 1 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

insurance set-up = quite standard practice w.multiple stand-alone buildings deemed a single unit: eg the four-block "complex" i live in is only insured to the value of a single building's destruction, as statistical likelihood of occurence to more than one at once considered by insurance orthodoxy vanishingly small

the question came up at the agm last week: cost of insuring all four prohibitive in re bank balances of occupants, so we stuck with status quo => no conspiracy required

vast cost of construction of twin towers, esp. given gamble of whether or not office space would sellable w/i ditto, offset against corner-cutting w.safety-margins and other issues which w.hindsight seems so disgraceful as to be i. lunatic, ii. criminal, iii. suspicious... but unlke the lizard-ppl of anti-semitic and other conspiracy, real actual live humans making "important" decisions have to guess and HEY!! sometimes guess rather badly.

Internal self-protective mechanisms of capitalism in re risk and catastrophe, as evolved over several hundred years, mean it is INEVITABLE that some profit where others lose. This is basic. Deeplaid shape of capitalist "system" is EVERYONE IS A GAMBLER, WILLING or NO. No one is "in control", even those apparently best placed to benefit, short or long term.

mark s, Friday, 1 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

what intrigues me is the idea that for the last twenty years there had been a shoot down order for any plane that got within a certain area of the towers...why not on sept 11?

goeff, Friday, 1 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Here's something which works the same ground with rather more intelligence -- and which scares me more effectively. Formatting likely to be mucky:

The Colder War. John Pilger writes about the new "red scare." : 

John Pilger

:29 Jan 2002

LAST week, the US government announced that it was building the biggest-ever war machine. Military spending will rise to $379billion, of which $50billion will pay for its "war on terrorism". There will be special funding for new, refined weapons of mass slaughter and for "military operations" - invasions of other countries.

Of all the extraordinary news since September 11, this is the most alarming. It is time to break our silence.

That is to say, it is time for other governments to break their silence, especially the Blair government, whose complicity in the American rampage in Afghanistan has not denied its understanding of the Bush administration's true plans and ambitions.

The recent statements of British Ministers about the "vindication" of the "outstanding success" in Afghanistan would be comical if the price of their "success" had not been paid with the lives of more than 5,000 innocent Afghani civilians and the failure to catch Osama bin Laden and anyone else of importance in the al-Qaeda network.

The Pentagon's release of deliberately provocative pictures of prisoners at Camp X-Ray on Cuba was meant to conceal this failure from the American public, who are being conditioned, along with the rest of us, to accept a permanent war footing similar to the paranoia that sustained and prolonged the Cold War.

The threat of "terrorism", some of it real, most of it invented, is the new Red Scare.

The parallels are striking.

IN AMERICA in the 1950s, the Red Scare was used to justify the growth of war industries, the suspension of democratic rights and the silencing of dissenters.

That is happening now.

Above all, the American industrial-complex has a new enemy with which to justify its gargantuan appetite for public resources - the new military budget is enough to end all primary causes of poverty in the world.

Donald Rumsfeld, the Defence Secretary, says he has told the Pentagon to "think the unthinkable".

Vice President Dick Cheney, the voice of Bush, has said the US is considering military or other action against "40 to 50 countries" and warns that the new war may last 50 years or more.

A Bush adviser, Richard Perle, explained. "(There will be) no stages," he said.

"This is total war. We are fighting a variety of enemies. There are lots of them out there ... If we just let our vision of the world go forth, and we embrace it entirely, and we don't try to piece together clever diplomacy but just wage a total war, our children will sing great songs about us years from now."

Their words evoke George Orwell's great prophetic work, Nineteen Eighty-Four.

In the novel, three slogans dominate society: war is peace, freedom is slavery and ignorance is strength.

Today's slogan, war on terrorism, also reverses meaning. The war is terrorism.

The next American attack is likely to be against Somalia, a deeply impoverished country in the Horn of Africa.

Washington claims there are al-Qaeda terrorist cells there.

This is almost certainly a fiction spread by Somalia's overbearing neighbour, Ethiopia, in order to ingratiate itself with Washington. Certainly, there are vast oil fields off the coast of Somalia.

For the Americans, there is the added attraction of "settling a score".

In 1993, in the last days of George Bush Senior's presidency, 18 American soldiers were killed in Somalia after the US Marines had invaded to "restore hope", as they put it.

A current Hollywood movie, Black Hawk Down, glamorises and lies about this episode.

It leaves out the fact that the invading Americans left behind between 7,000 and 10,000 Somalis killed.

Like the victims of American bombing in Afghanistan, and Iraq, and Cambodia, and Vietnam and many other stricken countries, the Somalis are unpeople, whose deaths have no political and media value in the West.

WHEN Bush Junior's heroic marines return in their Black Hawk gunships, loaded with technology, looking for "terrorists", their victims will once again be nameless. We can then expect the release of Black Hawk Down II.

Breaking our silence means not allowing the history of our lifetimes to be written this way, with lies and the blood of innocent people. To understand the lie of what Blair/Straw/Hoon call the "outstanding success" in Afghanistan, read the work of the original author of "Total War", a man called Zbigniew Brzezinski, who was President Carter's National Security Adviser and is still a powerful force in Washington.

Brzezinski not long ago revealed that on July 3, 1979, unknown to the American public and Congress, President Jimmy Carter secretly authorised $500million to create an international terrorist movement that would spread Islamic fundamentalism in Central Asia and "destabilise" the Soviet Union.

The CIA called this Operation Cyclone and in the following years poured $4billion into setting up Islamic training schools in Pakistan (Taliban means "student").

Young zealots were sent to the CIA's spy training camp in Virginia, where future members of al-Qaeda were taught "sabotage skills" - terrorism.

Others were recruited at an Islamic school in Brooklyn, New York, within sight of the fated Twin Towers.

In Pakistan, they were directed by British MI6 officers and trained by the SAS.

The result, quipped Brzezinski, was "a few stirred up Muslims" - meaning the Taliban.

At that time, the late 1970s, the American goal was to overthrow Afghanistan's first progressive, secular government, which had granted equal rights to women, established health care and literacy programmes and set out to break feudalism.

When the Taliban seized power in 1996, they hanged the former president from a lamp-post in Kabul.

His body was still a public spectacle when Clinton administration officials and oil company executives were entertaining Taliban leaders in Washington and Houston, Texas.

The Wall Street Journal declared: "The Taliban are the players most capable of achieving peace. Moreover, they were crucial to secure the country as a prime trans-shipment route for the export of Central Asia's vast oil, gas and other natural resources."

NO AMERICAN newspaper dares suggest that the prisoners in Camp X-Ray are the product of this policy, nor that it was one of the factors that led to the attacks of September 11.

Nor do they ask: who were the real winners of September 11?

The day the Wall Street stockmarket opened after the destruction of the Twin Towers, the few companies showing increased value were the giant military contractors Alliant Tech Systems, Northrop Gruman, Raytheon (a contributor to New Labour) and Lockheed Martin.

As the US military's biggest supplier, Lockheed Martin's share value rose by a staggering 30 per cent.

Within six weeks of September 11, the company (with its main plant in Texas, George Bush's home state) had secured the biggest military order in history: a $200billion contract to develop a new fighter aircraft. The greatest taboo of all, which Orwell would surely recognise, is the record of the United States as a terrorist state and haven for terrorists.

This truth is virtually unknown by the American public and makes a mockery of Bush's (and Blair's) statements about "tracking down terrorists wherever they are".

They don't have to look far.

Florida, currently governed by the President's brother, Jeb Bush, has given refuge to terrorists who, like the September 11 gang, have hi-jacked aircraft and boats with guns and knives.

Most have never had criminal charges brought against them.

Why? All of them are anti-Castro Cubans. Former Guatemalan Defence Minister Gramajo Morales, who was accused of "devising and directing an indiscriminate campaign of terror against civilians", including the torture of an American nun and the massacre of eight people from one family, studied at Harvard University on a US government scholarship.

During the 1980s, thousands of people were murdered by death squads connected to the army of El Salvador, whose former chief now lives comfortably in Florida.

The former Haitian dictator, General Prosper Avril, liked to display the bloodied victims of his torture on television.

When he was overthrown, he was flown to Florida by the US government, and granted political asylum.

A leading member of the Chilean military during the reign of General Pinochet, whose special responsibility was executions and torture, lives in Miami.

THE Iranian general who ran Iran's notorious prisons, is a wealthy exile in the US.

One of Pol Pot's senior henchmen, who enticed Cambodian exiles back to their certain death, lives in Mount Vernon, New York.

What all these people have in common, apart from their history of terrorism, is that they either worked directly for the US government or carried out the dirty work of US policies.

The al-Qaeda training camps are kindergartens compared with the world's leading university of terrorism at Fort Benning in Georgia. Known until recently as the School of the Americas, its graduates include almost half the cabinet ministers of the genocidal regimes in Guatemala, two thirds of the El Salvadorean army officers who committed, according to the United Nations, the worst atrocities of that country's civil war, and the head of Pinochet's secret police, who ran Chile's concentration camps.

There is terrible irony at work here. The humane response of people all over the world to the terrorism of September 11 has long been hijacked by those running a rapacious great power with a history of terrorism second to none. Global supremacy, not the defeat of terrorism, is the goal; only the politically blind believe otherwise.

The "widening gap between the world's "haves" and "have nots"', says a remarkably candid document of the US Space Command, presents "new challenges" to the world's superpower and which can only be met by "Full Spectrum Dominance" - dominance of land, sea, air and space.

Fuck, Nude Spock! This is the second time you've posted anti-semetic nuttiness here. What is up? I think you're a little too uncritical about massed "data" from dubious sources.

"IN AMERICA in the 1950s, the Red Scare was used to justify the growth of war industries, the suspension of democratic rights and the silencing of dissenters."

But the OUTCOME, by the 60s, was a vast INCREASE in democratic activity in the US (inc.the mainstreaming of Civil Rights positions) and a global outburst of dissent w/o parallel in 20th century history. Pilger is a TERRIBLE political analyst: kinda Chomsky w/o the smart stuff.

His basic assumption — which Chomsky can also tumble into, and which all lizard-ppl theorists absolutely believe — is that the GLOBAL RULING CLASS operates as an utterly smooth, conflict-free, motivationally unified, communicationally self-transparent cadre. Even as a rallying cry, this is totally counter-productive.

mark s, Friday, 1 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I'll definitely grant you that, Mark. Another Pilger flaw is that he thinks either (1) nothing will happen in response or (2) those who read his stuff will be instrumental in making changes. A weird sort of combination of fatalism and martyrdom.

The biggest problem with conspiracy theory as broadly described is that it assumes a *massive* amount of people/interests/things keeping one hell of a secret. Whereas what happened on September 11 makes much more sense -- a very small, focused group keeping a secret.

The biggest problem with conspiracy theory as broadly described is that it assumes a *massive* amount of people/interests/things keeping one hell of a secret. Whereas what happened on September 11 makes much more sense -- a very small, focused group keeping a secret.

This is such an important point - and it is supported by the way effective revolutionary conspiracies actually work: for just the reasons Ned mentions, the larger organization is split into tiny cells of a few people, with no-one knowing very much about the larger framework of the organization and its goals. Therefore, only a few people ever have to keep the "one hell of a secret" - or even know more than a few component parts of the big secret.

The other problem I find with this kind of stuff is this: if it's all such a big secret, why am I able to go to k-zillion sources to read about it? and why hasn't the ruthless all-powerful machine silenced the revelations of the conspiracy?

Regarding anti-semetic nuttiness: Well, ya know, for people who respond this retardedly, I will say this: Showing Israel to be racist or Zionism to be racism is, in your eyes, a racist thing to do. Actually, the whole tone of it is really only "antisemetic" if it is completely false... and it's not completely false. It is speculative, sure, but that doesn't necessarily make it antisemetic, either. It is no more racist than the widespread speculation about Islam, actually, prior to the hard "evidence" of Osama's videotape, which really doesn't seem to be interpreted properly into English for CNN, based on what I've read.

Regarding the Federal Reserve: It appears pretty widely known that The Federal Reserve uses the word "Federal" in the title, but it is actually not federal, but privately owned. One person defending the Federal Reserve said this: "Yes, the Federal Reserve banks are privately owned, but they are controlled by the publically-appointed Board of Governors. The Federal Reserve banks merely execute the monetary policy choices made by the Board. In addition, nearly all the interest the Federal Reserve collects on government bonds is rebated to the Treasury each year, so the government does not pay any net interest to the Fed."

Why, because it's so 'laughable' it will therefore be ignored and let the lizard men do their thing. This is the same logic that lets creationists argue away flaws in the Bible, only flipped around.

Ned Raggett, Friday, 1 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Fritz, that's exactly what I thought about last night. All these people would have to keep this a huge secret. That is a very valid point if a large group of people really *do* know what's going on. I suppose the flipside is that believers don't feel many people really do know anything different from the "spin" the public is led to believe.

I can't believe how bizarre the middle east is. I saw Afghani women the other night on the news speaking about the first female suicide bomber and they were saying that they understand how she feels. Sometimes they also feel like killing people. And the quote I can remember, "You know, you kill us, we are going to kill you right back" made me think how warped it all is.

WHAT A CREATIVE CONSPIRACY THEORY

Mike Hanle y, Friday, 1 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I think you're not seeing the forest for the trees here, Spock. I'd be interested to read an intelligent argument about Zionism as a form of racism or Israel as an oppressive state. I might not agree with all of it, but I would read it objectively. What you have brought us here is not an intelligent argument. It is speculation presented as fact, first of all. It does not present itself as an opinion piece, but rather a piece of research. The substance of the article is a series of mostly ridiculous, unsupportable points presented as if they were proven fact.(Just a couple:To put it bluntly, Kennedy's head was blown off on television for the whole world to see, as a warning to any future president who might even think about resisting the aims of Israel., just 8 days before the attacks, the overwhelming attitude of the nations of the world was against Israel's policies ). Don't these tactics make you a little dubious of whoever's behind this e-mail? People resort to these kinds of lies and leaps of logic when they're trying to present an over- simplified world-view.

mark s, Friday, 1 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

No, Fritz, I see the forrest for the trees, that it was presented as fact, etc. ... or more accurately, "draw your own conclusions, but JFK WAS KILLED BY JEWS!!!" Yes, I see all this. But, you still have a bunch of facts that are strangely coincidental.

And, I do remember CNN reporting that eyewitnesses saw explosions on each of the floors. It is odd that the planes weren't shot down and several sources have said we were "aware" of the threat. I have trouble believing that the FBI is as clutzy as we were led to believe.

I did also see all the info about the "pancaking effect", but isn't it true that the black boxes and the Twin Towers were built to withstand significanly more heat than spaceships encounter... like hundreds of times more heat? I also heard that on CNN. It's weird that people just come to conclusions like, "Well, I guess you just don't know... those boxes are gone for good... Pancake effect explains why the thing fell". It really doesn't explain, because they were built to withstand plane crashes. One floor should not have pancaked onto the next. The increased weight is why the pancake effect occured. And it does seem weird that the FBI has been able to round up terrorists left and right since the attacks, but couldn't do a damn thing about the warnings prior to 911.

But, as I said, it's a freaky conspiracy theory. I remember Ned posted one long ago that made the USA look suspicious and that freaked me out, too. Ned, do you still have that link?

Nude Spock, Friday, 1 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Not sure what you're referring to. You might have to trawl through the 9/11 threads.

Ned Raggett, Friday, 1 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

YOU'RE STILL MISSING THE POINT: what does it matter if a bunch of "facts" are strangely coincedental if they are NOT FACTS?

fritz, Friday, 1 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

No, you're missing the point, much of the above IS FACT. What you are referring to is conjecture. Conjecture is what annoys you, stops you cold and makes you disregard the entirety. But, in this world, much of what we accept as fact is actually conjecture, anyway. So, I noted the conjecture and added up the facts, something many apparantly weren't able/didn't want to do.

mark s, Friday, 1 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Actually, without reposting the whole thing and dissecting it, because it is so very long, the "before 911" (intro) and "after 911" (endtro) regarding the economy, the FBI, Bush and Israel, specifically, are full of facts, rather than factoids, and this is what I find coincidental. In the middle, there seems to be a desire to rewrite history regarding JFK, etc. (which isn't necessarily wrong, as history is subjective). I think, though, there seems to be more facts (perhaps unrelated) than false facts/factoids. Perhaps the emailer, if serious and *not* racist, would have done better to list simply facts, rather than add phrases like, "Hmmm, very interesting" and crap like that and steer clear of conjecture entirely.

Nude Spock, Friday, 1 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

mark, you yourself said you "can't be bothered to plough through Nude's rubbish formatting" so, since you haven't, aren't you being a bit hypocritical? First of all the the thing is huge.

[doesn't genuinely believe it and is only doing this to wind people up cuz he's bored]

There isn't much I genuinely believe, mark. Many people have thought this was shady from day one, but most people are content to rally around a common enemy. I was saying our gov't deserves to be attacked just before 911 happened, so I'm obviously not big on our foreign policy.

Nude Spock, Sunday, 3 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Something this massive is going to produce zillions of coincidences. You can spin almost any conspiracy theory you like (or you can concatenate several, like the quoted one does). I'm sending Sundar a video tape of his performance in Branca's "guitar army" at the bottom of the WTC last year. You know the next thing on the DV tape that was in the camera? The WTC burning, as shot from my roof. There was no conspiracy though. We didn't know the WTC was going to go down. It's just one of those things. You can spin whatever you want. I LOVE conspiracy theories, Spock, and I think a lot of people here do too. It's all about what KIND of conspiracy theory you go for - which one's most entertaining to discuss - since they are all bunk - that's why they're called what they're called - and I think people are a little het up at you for choosing one with such questionable race politics in it. Which you may not have entirely been conscious of when you first posted. You know that thing where you can put ANY piece of audio along with ANY piece of video and find all sorts of "meaningful" points of synchronicity? I think that's mainly what this stuff is, but with a big ol helping of conjecture-glue to string it all together. Like someone who'd edited Dark Side of the Moon to match EVERY SCENE of The Wizard of Oz.

I actually believe there MAY BE a Real Story which we will never know. But I don't think it involves a radically different story of what happened on 9/11. I think if anything, it might involve a different story of what happened BEFORE - what the Bushes' and Cheney's relationships were with the Saudis vis-a-vis their shell corps and investments. Real family history type stuff woven in with long-terms US plans in the region. Weapons manufacturers who own oil companies who want to build pipelines seem like much more plausibly boring villains to me. Either that or it's all the adulterers who are bringing damnation down upon us.

Actually, Momus comes out the victor because of yer "You do not know who I am" - self absorbed people suggest that they are important - that comment folk should not be or could handle their "true" identities. Whereas Momus just comes on board as Momus. And interacts with the common folk - well you hide behind an identity and tell people that, yes, you should listen to me, you would be 'cited if you know who I am.

Which is just boring.

So, in fact, you destroyed your own argument but creating a sense of false importance about yourself. I mean - I emailed Momus as retrolover and asked him a question once whereas he replied.

I really do not think that Momus is self absorbed, well, as self absorbed as any artist (which you have to be to some extent).

Oh well - I am babbling - I regret now asking several of my "important" threads to look at your argument and contribute, Nude Spock. Cause you are a bit of a fathead, are you not?

You let me down by bringing in irrationality and personal ego issues and then said that you thought everyone, including Momus was incredibly self absorbed!

Go back to arguing the original points of the argument. Otherwise you lose ground....and it gets weighted down.

To the world who may have a concern:

When I saw the images of September 11 I cried observing so much destruction, especially of human lives, and to those people and their families my simpathy. But, after abrief review of information available to all, I am saddened at the fact that these lives may have been lost not at the hands of traditional "terrorist", but other kind, the kind that you may reach a conclusion.

Not too long ago, in a recent TIME Magazine,(May 20, 1992, Pg 9) there's an article regarding a book ("The Horrifying Fraud".- by Thierry Meyssan) with a new theory about September 11. This article also includes three pictures. Pictures of surveillance cameras posted at the side of the Pentagon building where you fail to see an "airplane" impacting its side. We all were made to believe this.

Additionally it is mentioned that meysan discounts "...expert explanations that the violence of the impact and heat of the explosion caused a virtual atomization of the jet...". I would direct your eyes to (1) August 7 2000 issue of Newsweek Magazine Pg. 42 where it shows debris of this fateful flight (please notice its colors-charred black), (2) Newsweek, July 29 1996, pgs 14-15. I appologize (to families of victims) for citing these as I would like to draw your attention to them. Regardless of size, there is always remains of an airplane.

Time September 24 1991 pgs 34-35 show the zise of an aircraft impact yet on 66-67 there is quite a different outlook of destruction. On Newsweek September 24, 2001 pgs. 18-19 you will find a picture of the Pentagon. I may be inclined to believe that the building, due to its nature has a sturdy design, but fortunately for the people inside the area fo destruction only covers the span of 5 to 6 windows, and a closer peek of another picture Newsweek June 10, 1992 pg 8-9 reveal that three windows down the destroyed area, the "glass windows" survided the extreme heat and impact of the airplane, and on page 1 of this same issue, the picture is quite clear as one can make out several items that were inside the offices before the... explosion??? except one thing... an airplane. Astonishingly, even colors stand out in this area where in other incidents, the predominant color was charred black.

In this same issue it recalls the possible agencied that bungled and did not foretell the attacks. But it is quite interesting what it is said about the investigation of the quasi pilots "...Neither man lost sight of the primary mission: learning to fly airplanes.... but they were impossible to teach... both men (had) a half-dozen classes on the ground before taking them up in a single engine Cessna in "MAY" (emphasis added)... but (the instructor) soon gave up on his hapless students. "I just thought they didn't have the aptitude" he says. "They were like Dumb and Dumber".

This is quite astonishing how a "hapless" student can be learning in May to fly a Cessna and in September skilfully manipulate a Boeing 757 into a building. Or, maybe there was help as indicated by Meyssan, that "...New York amateur radio operators, who say they picked up signals of navigational beacons within the towers..."

Finally, I believe that the defense department as well as the air traffic controllers over the DC area are quite experienced. How can a Boeing 757 slip their eagle eyes. This certainly was not the case just recently with another airplane that was in restricted airspace.

I have looked at the images in magazines and there are many questions unanswered. If the Meyssan article had been in relation with any other building I might have dismissed it without a second look and quite disgusted out of respect of those fallen. But there was an explosion in the Pentagon, not an "ordinary building". If an airplane did not impact it, who or what caused the explosion in a building that may have state of the art security measures and the people who work there are.... well you know.

I would like some answers, because the incidents changes our world for good... or might I say for bad.

Hello. I can verify the truth of this article. I am an American who was in Saudi Arabia on 9-11. It was plastered all over the news there that many of the alleged hijackers were not the real hijackers because when photo IDs were made public, the photo IDs matched up with living Saudis alive and in the Kingdom (they should be dead if they hijacked the planes). So who were the real hijackers? It is well known that Israelis and Arabs infiltrate each other in spy rings. It is too easy for Israelis to pose as Arabs using false IDs, and vice versa. It was publicised on the news in Saudi Arabia that thousands of Jews did not go to work in the Twin Towers that morning of 9-11. How did they know not to go? Who told them? Was it the Mossad? Did they know because they were behind the attacks? What about the Fox News reports of the Israeli Art Students who lived near the alleged Mohammed Atta in Hollywood Florida? These Israeli spies are gaining access to many of our Federal buildings, drawing blueprints and then leaving. Many of them were former Israeli Military personnel who worked in explosive ordinace divisions. What is goig on? Wake up America! This story is not taken seriously by most media because it is Israel who controls that media. America is dominated by Zionist Jews (a fact stated by Sharon) who control the majority of our media, our corporations and our central banks. This is a well-known and well-documented fact. Zionist Jews who oppress the world through the manipulation and mastery of money wish for nothing more than what they have attained: World domination. He who controls the money controls everyone. It is no coincidence that the American Federal Reserve Banks are privately owned, mostly by Zionist Jews, and that Hollywood is controlled by a Zionist Jew, the actor Judd Hirsch.
What we do know about the attacks is that America is now attacking the Arab world, a ploy that Israel just happens to suport for reasons none other than to help us fight their dirty, ugly hatred towards Arabs. America is a predominately Christian Country. Sharon is not killing Palestinians, he is killing Christians. He wants us to help him kill more. Our media uses the word "Palestinian" so that we do not see the truth, which is "Christians."
As Christians, we should take heed and warning that Jesus gave us in Revelation 2:9 and 3:9 of the Jews who are not real Jews, but who are "The Synagogue of Satan." Real Jews would not break God's Covenant as in Exodus 22:25 which states that you cannot run a money lending istitution (a bank) and loan money to people at interest to enslave them into poverty, just as Zionist Jews have done with the central banks all over the world.
Will the true Jews who adhere to God's law be saved from anti-semitism? I think we need to see who the liars are who are not real Jews and have them tried for oppresion.

Idaho weatherman quits, says he wants to pursue hurricane theory


The Associated Press

IDAHO FALLS, Idaho – A Pocatello weatherman who gained attention for an unusual theory that Hurricane Katrina was caused by the Japanese mafia using a Russian electromagnetic generator has quit the television station.

Scott Stevens' last appearance on KPVI-TV was Thursday.

His departure comes after station officials learned a link labeled "Make a Donation" on Stevens' Web site, www.weatherwars.info, where he expounds on his theory, opened a payment form connected to Stevens' KPVI e-mail address.

Still, station manager Bill Fouch, who'd told Stevens he should keep his views separate from his TV role, insisted his former employee wasn't forced out.

"Scott advised me several months ago that he wouldn't renew his contract so he could devote full time to this," Fouch said. "He wants to get right at it."

Stevens believes a little-known oversight in physical laws makes it possible to create and control storms using a Cold War-era weapon allegedly made by the Russians in 1976. The nine-year KPVI weatherman said he's received 120,000 hits on his Web site in two days, now gets about 100 e-mails a day and has 15 radio bookings in the next five days.

"I needed more time to do everything that's been put in front of me," said Stevens, 39. "I have not been able to dedicate the 40 hours a week to this place."

Earlier this week, scientists told the Idaho Falls Post Register the theory was bogus.

"It's laughable to think it (Hurricane Katrina) could have been manmade," said Rob Young, a hurricane expert at Western Carolina University in Cullowhee, N.C.
