There are a lot of unanswered questions about the 11th September "attacks", look up the 'Reichstag Fire', we've been there before. Actually, a tape found after the events explains them far better. It turns out President Nixon left one of his tape recorders running after taping a conversation about the faked moon landings you totally clueless ****ing moron. BUSH: So, what's the plan again? CHENEY: Well, we need to invade Iraq and Afghanistan. So what we've decided to do is crash a whole bunch of remote-controlled planes into Wall Street and the Pentagon, say they're real hijacked commercial planes, and blame it on the towelheads; then we'll just blow up the buildings ourselves to make sure they actually fall down. RUMSFELD: Right! And we'll make sure that some of the hijackers are agents of Saddam Hussein! That way we'll have no problem getting the public to buy the invasion. CHENEY: No, Dick, we won't. RUMSFELD: We won't? CHENEY: No, that's too obvious. We'll make the hijackers Al Qaeda and then just imply a connection to Iraq. RUMSFELD: But if we're just making up the whole thing, why not just put Saddam's fingerprints on the attack? CHENEY: (sighing) It just has to be this way, Dick. Ups the ante, as it were. This way, we're not insulated if things go wrong in Iraq. Gives us incentive to get the invasion right the first time around. BUSH: I'm a total idiot who can barely read, so I'll buy that. But I've got a question. Why do we need to crash planes into the Towers at all? Since everyone knows terrorists already tried to blow up that building complex from the ground up once, why don't we just blow it up like we plan to anyway, and blame the bombs on the terrorists? RUMSFELD: Mr. President, you don't understand. It's much better to sneak into the buildings ourselves in the days before the attacks, plant the bombs and then make it look like it was exploding planes that brought the buildings down. That way, we involve more people in the plot, stand a much greater chance of being exposed and needlessly complicate everything! CHENEY: Of course, just toppling the Twin Towers will never be enough. No one would give us the war mandate we need if we just blow up the Towers. Clearly, we also need to shoot a missile at a small corner of the Pentagon to create a mightily underpublicized additional symbol of international terrorism -- and then, obviously, we need to fake a plane crash in the middle of f***ing nowhere in rural Pennsylvania. RUMSFELD: Yeah, it goes without saying that the level of public outrage will not be sufficient without that crash in the middle of f***ing nowhere. CHENEY: And the Pentagon crash -- we'll have to do it in broad daylight and say it was a plane, even though it'll really be a cruise missile. BUSH: Wait, why do we have to use a missile? CHENEY: Because it's much easier to shoot a missile and say it was a plane. It's not easy to steer a real passenger plane into the Pentagon. Planes are hard to come by. BUSH: But aren't we using two planes for the Twin Towers? CHENEY: Mr. President, you're missing the point. With the Pentagon, we use a missile, and say it was a plane. BUSH: Right, but I'm saying, why don't we just use a plane and say it was a plane? We'll be doing that with the Twin Towers, right? CHENEY: Right, but in this case, we use a missile. (Throws hands up in frustration) Don, can you help me out here? RUMSFELD: Mr. President, in Washington, we use a missile because it's sneakier that way. Using an actual plane would be too obvious, even though we'll be doing just that in New York. BUSH: Oh, OK. RUMSFELD: The other good thing about saying that it was a passenger jet is that that way, we have to invent a few hundred fictional victims and account for a nonexistent missing crew and plane. It's always better when you leave more cover story to invent, more legwork to do and more possible holes to investigate. Doubt, legwork and possible exposure -- you can't pull off any good conspiracy without them. BUSH: You guys are brilliant! Because if there's one thing about Americans -- they won't let a president go to war without a damn good reason. How could we ever get the media, the corporate world and our military to endorse an invasion of a secular Iraqi state unless we faked an attack against New York at the hands of a bunch of Saudi religious radicals? Why, they'd never buy it. Look at how hard it was to get us into Vietnam, Iraq the last time, Kosovo? CHENEY: Like pulling teeth! RUMSFELD: Well, I'm sold on the idea. Let's call the Joint Chiefs, the FAA, the New York and Washington, D.C., fire departments, Rudy Giuliani, all three networks, the families of a thousand fictional airline victims, MI5, the FBI, FEMA, the NYPD, Larry Eagleburger, Osama bin Laden, Noam Chomsky and the fifty thousand other people we'll need to pull this off. There isn't a moment to lose! BUSH: Don't forget to call all of those Wall Street hotshots who donated $100 million to our last campaign. They'll be thrilled to know that we'll be targeting them for execution as part of our thousand-tentacled modern-day bonehead Reichstag scheme! After all, if we're going to make martyrs -- why not make them out of our campaign paymasters? ****, didn't the Merrill Lynch guys say they needed a refurbishing in their New York offices? RUMSFELD: Oh, they'll get a refurbishing, all right. Just in time for the "Big Wedding"! ALL THREE: (cackling) Mwah-hah-hah! |

Reichstag Fi 102 minutes that changed America
We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember "alexander.keys1" saying something like: Of course these won't help if the building suffers catastrophic structural failure, but that had never happened before to a skyscraper, and short of a nuclear explosion, is only going to happen with the planned use of demolition charges throughout the structure... Oh, **** off with your crazy ****** conspiracy theory. ****ing arshole. |

A missile ht the Pentagon, one plane was shot down and another building dealing with emergencies was surrounded in mystery. Why would the Government deliberately kill so many people? Did they really need this as an excuse to continue with a war? I thought the film was rubbish. |

Cheers Jeff It is now widely accepted that the attack on Pearl Harbour was engineered by the Americans, by placing the Japanese in a position with only one outcome, and ensuring the non-discovery of the progress of their attack fleet by the 'vacant seas'order, which ordered all US and allied shipping out of those waters.

At least two of the planes were clearly seen to hit each of the towers by many millions of people, that just cannot be denied. Plenty of plane parts were found in the WTC rubble. Just as much wreckage as was found in all the other similar instances. Although there haven't been any other similar instances of course. Plane parts matching the type of plane said to have hit the Pentagon were certainly found inside that building. And the other plane almost certainly crashed into that field. What exactly is your point? Cheers Jeff |

Cheers Jeff What parts were found outside the pentagon? Given the size of the hole - how did the other parts make it INSIDE? Actually - there is some evidence (anecdotal, like most on both sides of this case) that the WTC was suceptable to fire damage - firstly, it was built with central beams with concrete covered trusses in between them and the outer sides (firefighter's motto - never trust a truss). Secondly, there is video footage of an inspection of the trusses in the towers from years before - showing several areas where the fire retardant on them was either inadequate or non existant. Like I said - I don't have the answers - just there's plenty of things that don't add up. |

Most of 9/11 is readily explained.
WTC was a tube, with relatively poor adherence of fire protective coatings. Sufficient columns were severed, extreme heat did the rest, same reason "steel shed" universal beams fold like liquorice during fires. Future high rise will rely on a concrete reinforced core so fire rating in terms of structural collapse is vastly better. The other buildings were unique construction re housing multiple TX re substation and backup diesel storage. The only peculiar part of 9/11 is why the military exercise was delayed a day until 9/11. The only peculiar part of Iraq invasion is that the New American Century had called for it, and even Alan "Bubble Magoo" Greenspan states the invasion was to realise oil assets that Saddam was letting rot thereby producing an even worse oil spike & induced recession in a credit bubble era "on Bush's watch" than we actually had. Plus of course republican admin usually coincide with wars and democrat admin usually coincide with deficit expansion. Bush of course managed to expand everything in the wrong direction. He did something right though, just can't remember what it is right now. China is seizing much of Africa and cheap (& increasingly disgruntled) labour re commodity reserves, along with now buying commodity companies around the West. West meanwhile is not only ensuring energy supply but agricultural supply via imperialism. So nothing much changed then. The only likely "viable" part of 9/11 is that someone or some in the USA "looked the other way" re New American Century crowd. They needed a fundamental change and historic Princeton/Cambridge thinking is you never call for a war, you let events force the people to call for one. You cry the people are being attacked. Nothing changed then, same ****, different era, different day. |

Cheers Jeff Granted - but here's the basics: No steel framed building has EVER collapsed due to fire before 9/11, or since. Yet we're expected to believe that at least THREE did that day. ********. Happens all the time in industrial warehousing with flammable chemicals inside. Would happen all the time to any steel frame building if there wasn't 45 minute fire protection mandated. IIRC it was about 45 minutes after the planes hit that the buildings went down.. No plane crash has ever left as little wreckage as any of these four crashes that day. I canniot recall a plane crash leaving more, actually. A 5 storey mound of rubble. Something definately doesn't add up somewhere. Have you ever in your life made anything add up? to the generally recognised correct answer? |

Cheers Jeff Sssh, Someone at the BBC might read that and comission a second seriesw of The Big Bang Theory. Its already been modelled. It behaved as predicted and in accordance with what happened. |

I heat part of it up red hot with a little flame and then I can bend it with my gloved hands, or I can squash it with a hammer. A steel framed building just has to get red hot and the steel will bend. A fire lasting half an hour would easily heat it red hot. Nobody should have gone into those buildings after half an hour. |

You've surely seen the train (Class 55 I think it was, or a 45?) ploughing into the UK nuclear flask? You seen the subsequent claims from greenpeace that it was all rigged, and part of a conspiracy? What utter crap.... :P |

... Like I said - I don't have the answers Well why not try to find some rather than just going on hearsay which is what you seem to be doing. There is a huge amount of stuff available on the internet, from both sides of the argument and much of it is actually quite sensible. Although not much of that is on the conspiracy side though!

Cheers Jeff What parts were found outside the pentagon? Given the size of the hole - how did the other parts make it INSIDE? Actually - there is some evidence (anecdotal, like most on both sides of this case) that the WTC was suceptable to fire damage - firstly, it was built with central beams with concrete covered trusses in between them and the outer sides (firefighter's motto - never trust a truss). Secondly, there is video footage of an inspection of the trusses in the towers from years before - showing several areas where the fire retardant on them was either inadequate or non existant. Like I said - I don't have the answers - just there's plenty of things that don't add up. regarding the wtc, what you say about the trusses may be valid, but it doesn't have anything to do with any of the conspiracy theories -- Steve (3) |

Sadly though the impact force from a large airline was enough to shake most of the fire protection loose as well. The original design specs didnt allow for an aircraft at full speed hitting it - they went, quite sensibly for a lost aircraft at approach speed hitting it by mistake and engineered for that instead. |

There was an excellent documentary on a couple of years ago which clearly showed why the towers fell, I wish they would repeat it. |
