"Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is
because fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities;
truth isn't." - Mark Twain
Not
too many people stop to think about the events of 9-11 these
days. After all, what's to consider? Twenty-one foreigners
hijacked four airliners, three of which were crashed into
important buildings. The end.
But, of course, it was much more complicated than that.
Did
you know, for example, that there just happened to be several
military exercises occurring in the northeast quadrant that
very day, one of which involved hijacked aircraft?
Did you know that several air traffic controllers met on
the afternoon of 9-11 and recorded, to the best of thier
memories, the events of
that
day? And that their manager crushed that tape
with his bare hands, cut the tape into pieces, and disposed
of it in different waste cans throughout his building?
Did you know that then-Attorney General John Ashcroft stopped
flying commercial aircraft after July 2001?
Did you know Jeb Bush signed papers, just prior ot 9-11,
which called for martial law "just in
case something
happened?"
Did you know the hotel George Bush stayed in on September
10th had ground-to-air missiles mounted on its roof?
Did you know that 9-11-01 just happened to be Ben Sliney's
first day on the job as FAA National Operations Manager?
(After 25 years as an air traffic controller he now practices
law.)
Did you know that flight 93 was shot down? (Can't have witnesses,
can we?)
Did you know the FBI had agents sharing rooms with the hijackers?
Why weren't fighter jets sent to intercept the four airliners
immediately, as per federal law? (They were never lost to
radar.)
How was it that the so-called hijacked were so quickly identified?
Why did Bush claim to have seen the first plane hit the building
when no one as yet had footage? And yet when the second plane
hit the South Tower he simply sat in that school building.
Why did Building 7 fall straight into its footprint even
though it suffered no structural damage from the initial
attacks?
The FBI confiscated the tapes from all of the surveillance
cameras surrounding the Pentagon on 9-11. Why haven't they
released those videos? What are they hiding?
The Pentagon is heavily defended by ground-to-air missiles.
Why did it not shoot down that aircraft?
How could the pilot have struck the Pentagon so precisely
when he couldn't even fly a Cessna?
Why have the towers not been rebuilt?
Why did no one, not one person, lose thier job for the failures
of 9-11?
Why has Osama Bin Laden never been officially charged by
the FBI for the attacks that day?
