Top Politicians, Economists, Leaders State 9/11 Possibly Inside Job
Wan to Know | 09.09.2005 16:22
The complete inability of the Bush/PNAC Regime to present compelling and independently-verifiable evidence to support their Conspiracy Theory, despite pressure to do so over a four year period, pretty much damns their version of events.
Not to mention what we've all learned about them since 2001.

Top Politicians, Economists, Other Leaders State 9/11 Possibly an Inside Job
Sept. 8, 2005
Dear friends,
When four planes tragically crashed four years ago on September 11th, the course of history was inalterably changed. Yet questions about what actually happened on that fateful day are asked with increasing frequency, even by some top government officials and other respected public leaders. Read the statements below (links to sources provided) from a former chief economist of President George W. Bush, an assistant secretary of the Treasury under President Reagan, a current U.S. Senator, a sitting Congresswoman, a renowned theologian, the head of advanced space programs for the Department of Defense under Reagan, a British cabinet minister under Prime Minister Tony Blair, and more.
Each of these prominent leaders now claims that there are serious problems with the official government story of 9/11. Some of these highly respected individuals even believe that 9/11 may have been an inside job. It can be very uncomfortable to even consider the possibility that certain individuals within government were involved either in allowing the attacks to happen, or in some way facilitating them in order to forward their hidden agendas. Yet the facts increasingly point in that direction.
The mainstream media has sadly failed to give significant coverage to the serious questions being raised these public figures. We invite you to have the courage to listen to their words and explore this vital topic, and then to share this powerful information with your friends. If we act now, we can powerfully work together to call for a truly independent investigation and to strengthen democracy in our nation and our world. For an abundance of reliable, verifiable information revealing key facts on 9/11 and what we can do about it, don't miss our compelling 9/11 Information Center at

Morgan Reynolds, Former Chief Economist under President Bush
June 13, 2005, Washington Times/ UPI
http://washingtontimes.com/upi-breaking/20050613-102755-6408r.htm
A former Bush team member during his first administration is now voicing serious doubts about the collapse of the World Trade Center on 9-11. Former chief economist for the Department of Labor during President George W. Bush's first term Morgan Reynolds comments that the official story about the collapse of the WTC is "bogus" and that it is more likely that a controlled demolition destroyed the Twin Towers and adjacent Building No. 7.
http://www.arcticbeacon.com/articles/article/1518131/27302.htm - More on Reynolds
"If demolition destroyed three steel skyscrapers at the World Trade Center on 9/11, then the case for an 'inside job' and a government attack on America would be compelling," said Morgan Reynolds, Ph.D, a former member of the Bush team. Reynolds, now a professor emeritus at Texas A&M University, also believes it's "next to impossible" that 19 Arab terrorists alone outfoxed the mighty U.S. military, adding the scientific conclusions about the WTC collapse may hold the key to the entire mysterious plot behind 9/11. Reynolds...claims explosives and structural experts have been intimidated in their analyses of the collapses of 9/11. In a detailed analysis just released supporting the controlled demolition theory, Reynolds presents a compelling case.
Paul Craig Roberts, Assistant Sect. of Treasury under Pres. Reagan
http://www-hoover.stanford.edu/bios/roberts.html - Website of Stanford's Hoover Institute describes Roberts
The Honorable Paul Craig Roberts is a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution. During 1981–82, he served as assistant secretary of the Treasury for economic policy. He was awarded the Treasury Department's Meritorious Service Award for "his outstanding contributions to the formulation of United States economic policy." A former editor and columnist for the Wall Street Journal and columnist for Business Week...the Forbes Media Guide ranked him as one of its top seven journalists. He has testified before committees of Congress on 30 occasions.
http://www.lasvegastribune.com/20050729/headline3.html - Las Vegas Tribune's July 29, 2005 article on Roberts
Roberts said he hasn’t changed his political ideology or jumped from the Republican-conservative ship but "just can’t respect a party leadership who doesn’t respect the truth." "I guess the real story about 9/11 is about what the people are actually saying. I’ve gotten hundreds of emails in response to my columns and many of them talk about not getting the truth from the government or the media about what really happened at the World Trade Center. I know many qualified engineers and scientists have said the WTC collapsed from explosives. In fact, if you look at the manner in which it fell, you have to give their conclusions credibility."

Sen. Mark Dayton, D-Minn., charged...that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) have covered up "catastrophic failures" that left the nation vulnerable during the Sept. 11 hijackings. "For almost three years now, NORAD officials and FAA officials have been able to hide their critical failures that left this country defenseless during two of the worst hours in our history," Dayton declared during a Senate Governmental Affairs Committee hearing. Dayton said NORAD officials "lied to the American people, they lied to Congress and they lied to your 9/11 commission to create a false impression of competence, communication and protection of the American people."

Rep. Cynthia McKinney led a Capitol Hill hearing Friday [July 22, 2005] on whether the Bush administration was involved in the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. "What we are doing is asking the unanswered questions of the 9/11 families," McKinney...said during the proceedings. The eight-hour hearing, timed to mark the first anniversary of the release of the Sept. 11 commission's report on the attacks, drew dozens of contrarians and conspiracy theorists who suggest President Bush purposely ignored warnings or may even have had a hand in the attack — claims participants said the commission ignored. "Congresswoman McKinney is viewed as a contrarian," panelist Melvin Goodman, a former CIA official, said. "And I hope someday her views will be considered conventional wisdom."
Note: Though the mainstream press largely failed to report on this important hearing, C-SPAN did air all eight hours of testimony given on August 31st and Sept. 2nd (because of Hurricane Katrina, part two was aired on C-SPAN 2), both at 8 PM.

A professor emeritus at the Claremont School of Theology, 66-year-old David Ray Griffin...compiled a summary of material arguing against the accepted story that 19 hijackers sent by Osama bin Laden took the aviation system and the U.S. military by surprise that awful day in his 2004 book "The New Pearl Harbor." He recently followed up with the book "The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions and Distortions," a critique of the Kean commission document. "For the first year and a half I just accepted the conventional view. When a colleague suggested to me about a year after 9/11 that he was convinced our own government or forces within our own government had arranged it, I didn't accept that. Then several months later another colleague sent me [a link to] a website that had a timeline. Once I started reading that and saw all those stories drawn from mainstream sources that contradicted the official account, I decided I needed to look into it more carefully, and the more I looked, the worse it got. The fact that Building 7 [a 47-story skyscraper in the WTC complex] collapsed when it had not been hit by an airplane, and collapsed in seven or eight seconds, that's a smoking gun. The fact that standard operating procedures were not followed that morning, and we've gotten three different stories now by the U.S. military as to why they did not intercept the planes, that's a smoking gun. There was a Zogby poll in New York. The question asked was, do you believe the government had advance knowledge of the attacks and consciously let them happen? Forty-nine percent in New York City said yes.
Note: On May 7, 2005, Dr. Griffin, who has authored or edited over two dozen scholarly books, was featured on C-SPAN 2 giving an excellent lecture on the 9/11 cover-up at the University of Wisconsin.

Robert M. Bowman, Head of Advanced Space Programs for DOD
http://www.illinoistimes.com/gyrobase/Content?oid=oid%3A4282 - Illinois Times on Bowman
In 1977, Dr. Robert M. Bowman, head of advanced space programs for the Department of Defense [DOD], authored a report describing a new missile-defense shield system called the “Star Wars Defense.” Lt. Col. Robert Bowman (Ret.), a combat pilot who flew 101 missions in the Vietnam War...ran for president in 2000.
http://www.rmbowman.com/ssn/Secrecy.htm - Article on Dr. Bowman's website discussing 9/11
Many people are convinced that George W. Bush knew what was going to happen and purposely allowed it to happen so he and his neo-conservative buddies could have the “new Pearl Harbor” they needed to justify their wars against Afghanistan and Iraq. Others go further. They are absolutely sure Cheney and company actually planned and carried out the attack. What is so disturbing is that their arguments are quite convincing. If an enormous cloud of suspicion is not to be permanently over the head of our government, the Bush Administration must “come clean,” releasing information thus far withheld from the American people. Why did John Ashcroft and top Pentagon officials cancel plans to fly commercial airlines the morning of 9/11? If they knew what was about to happen, why wasn’t it stopped? Who made all the millions of dollars selling short United and American Airlines [stock] just before 9/11? Why weren’t the hijacked airliners intercepted by jet fighters and shot down before they could fly into the WTC and Pentagon? What did the air traffic controllers say, and to whom? Why did the FBI impound the tapes of those conversations? Why has the public never been told what was on them? Why weren’t the congressional investigators told? If it was just a matter of incompetence or somebody not doing their job, why hasn’t anyone been fired or reprimanded?
Michael Meacher, UK Minister of Environment (1997 - 2003)
September 6, 2003, The Guardian (one of the UK's leading newspapers)
http://www.guardian.co.uk/comment/story/0,3604,1036571,00.html
A blueprint for the creation of a global Pax Americana was drawn up for Dick Cheney (now vice-president), Donald Rumsfeld (defence secretary), Paul Wolfowitz (Rumsfeld's deputy), Jeb Bush (George Bush's younger brother) and Lewis Libby (Cheney's chief of staff). The document, entitled Rebuilding America's Defences, was written in September 2000 by the neoconservative think tank, Project for the New American Century (PNAC). The information provided by European intelligence services prior to 9/11 was so extensive that it is no longer possible for either the CIA or FBI to assert a defence of incompetence. Fifteen of the 9/11 hijackers obtained their visas in Saudi Arabia. Michael Springman, the former head of the American visa bureau in Jeddah, has stated that since 1987 the CIA had been illicitly issuing visas to unqualified applicants from the Middle East and bringing them to the US for training in terrorism for the Afghan war in collaboration with Bin Laden (BBC, November 6 2001). It seems this operation continued after the Afghan war for other purposes. It is also reported that five of the hijackers received training at secure US military installations in the 1990s (Newsweek, September 15 2001) The conclusion of all this analysis must surely be that the "global war on terrorism" has the hallmarks of a political myth propagated to pave the way for a wholly different agenda - the US goal of world hegemony, built around securing by force command over the oil supplies required to drive the whole project.
Catherine Austin Fitts, Ass. Sect. of Housing For President Bush
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catherine_Austin_Fitts - Wikipedia article describing Fitts
Catherine Austin Fitts has been a Wall Street executive, a government official, and President of her own investment bank. She is currently the director of Solari. Fitts served as Managing Director and Member of the Board of Directors of the Wall Street investment bank, Dillon, Read & Co., Inc. and also as Assistant Secretary of Housing/Federal Housing Commissioner at HUD in the first Bush Administration.

Article jointly written by Catherine Austin Fitts and Congresswoman McKinney on excellent 9/11 website
From the first, the Bush Administration resisted investigation and disclosure. Families of September 11 victims were forced to lobby the administration and Congress for a full and independent inquiry. They fought for 14 months, blocked every step of the way by the White House. The families demanded a full investigation, posing nearly 400 questions to the Kean Commission. The commissioners said they welcomed these queries. But their final report ignored most of the unanswered questions. Still posted on the website of the September 11 Family Steering Committee, these questions are a stark reminder of the Kean Commission's failures. Until the unanswered questions about 9/11 are laid to rest, by a truly independent investigation that does not declare legitimate avenues of inquiry off-limits, they will continue to haunt our country.

http://www.911truth.org/article.php?story=20041026093059633
An alliance of 100 prominent Americans and 40 family members of those killed on 9/11 announced the release of the 911 Truth Statement, a call for immediate inquiry into evidence that suggests high-level government officials may have deliberately allowed the September 11th attacks to occur. The Statement's list of signatories includes notables spanning the political spectrum, from Presidential candidates Ralph Nader, Michael Badnarik, and David Cobb to Catherine Austin Fitts, a member of the first Bush administration, as well as Washington veterans like Pentagon whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg and retired CIA analyst Ray McGovern. Other signers range from peace activists like Code Pink co-founder Jodie Evans and Global Exchange's Kevin Danaher to former US Ambassador and Chief of Mission to Iraq, Edward L. Peck; from environmentalists like Randy Hayes and John Robbins to business leaders such as Paul Hawken and Karl Schwarz, CEO of Patmos Nanotechnologies; from populist journalist Ronnie Dugger to renowned investigative reporter Kelly Patricia O'Meara. The Statement also includes 43 noted authors, including New York Times #1 bestseller John Gray, as well as 18 eminent professors, historians, and theologians. Other notables include five-term Georgia Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney, singers Michelle Shocked and Michael Franti, and actors Ed Asner and Mimi Kennedy.

This details a USA plan, formulated at the highest level (the worst part was agreed to by the Joint Chiefs Of Staff), to create a series of MOCK terrorist attacks far more widespread than 911, and use them as an excuse to invade Cuba, and trigger TOTAL WAR against the USSR.
Really, you've seen this many times in your dramatic films, fiction and non-fiction. President has a problem. He discusses problem with room full of all the top guys (and girls if more recent). Half of his staff are raving nuts, jumping up and down saying 'nuke 'em, nuke 'em'. Half are a little more sensible. And one guy is there to agree with the prez that they should try a peaceful option first, and gives him the key info that justifies this approach that, of course, ends up saving the day.
Real life is VERY DIFFERENT. In the early 60's, the problem the US faced was that not one significant World Leader backet the insane military planning of the US, and without that support, these sick plans could not be executed. The US had actual plans to use nuclear weapons in EVERY major conflict it was involved in since WW2, but could never get external support for these acts!
In other words, the US has always been a raving psychopath and bully, but smart enough to limit its actions to maximise its future prospects. But what would happen if the US got an ally willing to encourage the worst impulses that the US has demonstrated across the ages. An ally that agreed that slavery based on racial theories was right and proper, and should be expanded??? An ally that agreed that the US should actively develop an empire, and conquer South America??? An ally that pushed the US to use Nuclear weapons in its conflict with Korea and China??? An ally that said " 'Operation Northwood', what a bloody good idea, you do it, and we'll arrange the support"???
A SICK, TWISTED, MONSTER OF AN ALLY CALLED TONY BLAIR!!!!!
Now the game begins. Blair could not go back in time, and provide the support needed to make 'operation Northwood' a functional reality. But Blair did not need to. The US power structure always keeps a mix of racists, religious bigots, industrial psychopaths, and military nutcases in significant positions of influence. All Blair needed was the current PLAN FOR WORLD DOMINATION. This plan, as we know, was called THE PROJECT FOR THE NEW AMERICAN CENTURY, and surprise surprise, was almost entirely the effort of ONE ethnic/religious group. In reality, the document was about PURE DEMOGRAPHICS- ie., how jewish influence would suffer a catastrophic decline in the US, Western Europe and the world in general, as the far greater (by world population, and percentage population in key countries) Muslim population started to demand proportional influence. Basically, the Muslims were about to do what the Blacks had always failed to do in the States- demand power at the level justified by their numbers, and thus displace the jews as the most powerful minority!
Ah, so-called race... the age old excuse for humans mass murdering each other. Blair isn't a racist- great evil rises far above such base idiocy, but Blair can spot a golden opportunity, and has long taken advantage of the services provided by that ethnic group in the UK- especially in the control of Western Mass Media.
Anyhow, Blair found HIS 'Operation Northwood', and HIS opposite number in the US, Dick Cheney. With an unbelievable (and unimagined) level of support from Blair, in terms of leadership, psy-ops, media propaganda campaigns, and actual military alliance, the first major FULLY EVIL US government plan was executed, and the countdown to mass extermination of Muslims (and ultimately war against China) began.
Blair had actually some time earlier engaged in the same thing, at a much smaller scale, with Putin. Immediately before Putin first came to power in Russia, Blair formulated a plan with Putin to allow Putin to wage a genocidal war in Chetnya. Putin would blow up apartment blocks in Russia, and blame Chetnians, thus giving him the excuse to declare war. Blair would handle the black propaganda in Western Europe, and neutralise any effective criticism or backlash agianst Russia by the EU (and thus allow the US to accept the war as well). You all know the success Blair had (Chetnians are almost universally considered as terrorists now, for the crime of having been genocided by Putin and Blair). Putin, of course, let Blair down badly, since Putin's own people were discovered planting the bombs in an apartment building, thankfully saving one load of victims. But to any fool that thinks THAT truth would make a difference, sorry- there is a good reason why the press is in the hands of a tiny ethnic minority. Had this story mad it to the FRONT PAGES of any newspaper, Putin, and Blair's plans would have been over. The UK today would NOT be full of the Putin's Billionaire thieves (sorry, despite what you have heard, these people are on the BEST terms with Putin, and provide the world's best money laundering and money tunneling services). However, the masses do not read tiny inside political stories in the broadsheets, and Putin made it illegal to refer to the story in Russia itself.
In other words, it really does not matter that the official story of 911 is a idiot mass of contradictions, impossibilities, actions that were opposite to KNOWN government methods, and plain lies. I mean, did it matter that Colin Powell, in that proud House Slave Tradition, gave a speech in the UN that was 100% lies (99% of those lies coming from the UK and Israel), and demanded the non-white world back a 'good' black man like himself? Is the fact that Blair (and his goons) were willing to do something so wicked on the back of total falsehoods reducing the ability for Blair to demand various actions today, on his say-so???
Back to my cryptic comment at the top. Blair's goons (as so many replies here demonstrate) live in mortal terror of the truth finally reaching a majority of the population. Blair knows better though. HE KNOWS that the population MUST know the truth for his power to make the final breakthrough. That his support MUST come from people that have accepted that Blair is despicable, and evil, and totally dishonest, but feel they have no choice but to support him anyway.
The documentary shown earlier in the year, that showed how Blair's goons fixed the election by fixing all the significant political appearances of Blair, and his inner circle, must have scared many involved. Individuals in New Labour (New Reich) were shown clearly involved in fraud (at a level that WOULD be technically illegal), mostly in the form of gross misrepresentation. Members of the public, in posters, photo-ops, town-hall meetings, or authors of newspaper letters, were actually the same Blair goons that so often post here, working officially for the New Reich. What they don't realise is that the documentary (and the journo working undercover at the election offices of the New Reich), had been authorised at the highest levels. It is ESSENTIAL for Blair that people have the truth, in the same way that it was ESSENTIAL for Hitler to publish Mein Kampf.
You see, the biggest lie you are EVER told is that power must be sneaky and underhand. Real Power comes from the genuine mass support of real people, and thus, its methods and intentions must be well exposed. We are NOT the VICTIMS of HISTORY, we are the ENABLERS of history. What would be the purpose of life, if events happened to us randomly, without our active involvement. Blair is becoming the greatest threat the Human Race has ever faced, precisely because he DOES place all his cards face up on the table, and still we back him.
The UK, a little island of civilised and law-abiding people (both in general comparison with the world today, AND historical humanity) is seeing the greatest expansion of new laws, and new punishments, that the world has EVER seen. Its captive population is experiencing the equivalent of good children raised by wicked parents, forever beaten and punished, and told that they are no good, and will amount to nothing, without more and more verbal and physical abuse.
Guess how you make serial killers??? Blair doesn't guess! The UK is an abusive household, but purposely so. The abused child, more often than not, allows guilt to inform them that they deserve harsh treatment from their parents, no matter how little cause the child can find! Abused correctly,the child becomes fiercely loyal to the parents, and will eventually become an abuser themself- often in a far worse way.
What disappoints me about YOU is that you know the difference between good and bad parents. You know that a good parent REWARDS good behaviour, and NEVER increases the severity of the punishments to try to squeeze even better behaviour out of the child. But you KNOW Blair does the very opposite. The UK has the safest roads- fine, bring in the BIGGEST system of speed cameras in the world. The UK has the safest and most responsible drivers- fine, massively increase the penalties for human mistakes on the road, including draconian prison sentences.
Does Blair hide the fact that he and his people (forever commiting crimes themselves) act as the VERY WORST ABUSIVE parents. The abusive parent is ALWAYS inventing new offenses that the child might commit, or can't help commiting. All serious crime, including sex crime, is historical trending downwards in the UK (as with the rest of the West). Now Blair is going to send people to PRISON (initially for 3 years, but eventually for 10) for looking at images of ADULT CONSENTING HUMANS indulging in various forms of sex play. WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK IS GOING ON??? WHERE THE HELL DO YOU THINK THIS IS TAKING US???
All the time, all over the net, I read Blair's goons telling us that WE are appalling. We watch disgusting films, look at disgusting pictures, play disgusting games, read disgusting books, listen to disgusting music, and visit disgusting non-Blair approved political/social websites. Blair's goons are forever waving some 'outraged of Sussex' at us, telling us that HIS/HER FAILURE AS A PARENT must result in US paying yet another sickening penaly in our freedoms. Funny thing though, all of us disgusting humans, with our disgusting media made by, and for consenting adult humans minds, never hurt so much as a fly with that 'disgusting' reading/looking or thinking.
Meanwhile, 'outraged of Sussex' is cheering his/her son for the numbers of 'disgusting' Iraqis he shot dead the last year, or cheering his/her daughter for how many bombing runs she planned in the RAF, targeting all those 'disgusting' mosques and terrorist hospitals.
Of course, Blair doesn't think we are disgusting (nothing in this universe deserves that label compared to him). But he knows that if he increases the attacks against us, we will spend so much time walking backwards, protesting our innocence, and promising to be less disgusting, that we will never find any time to co-ordinate our responses to him. It is an age old game, but it has never been played for higher stakes. Stalin achieved a lot, Mao achieved a lot, Hitler achieved a lot, but Blair knows, for the first time in Human History, that he has a real chance of winning everything. God almight, what did we do to deserve this :( :( :( Life on this planet can be so glorious, why are going to let Blair turn it into a living Hell???
