This is a pretty interesting overview of much of the doubts that the

>'conspiracy' people have about 9/11. I don't buy into this conspiracy

>stuff but they do raise some very good questions.....ones that the

>government has yet to even try to answer. It looks long but is only

>about a 10 minute read, tops, and it does make you think........again, I

>can't imagine that all the people it would take to perpetuate something

>of this magnitude could keep their mouths shut and make it a success,

>yet I also find it hard to believe 20 muslim guys could do the damage

>they did and our government couldn't stop them.

>"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot

>The only support for the official conspiracy theory about 9-11 comes

>from the ludicrous assertions of the the Bush Administration and from

>the corporate mainstream media that control the publication of news in

>the USA. On the basis of the facts and the analysis of those facts,

>there is no way that anyone with a bit of education and critical,

>independent thinking can seriously continue to support this amazing

>fantasy of carousing, Muslim fanatics willing to die for Allah, being

>trained in US Military flight facilities, drawing frequent attention to

>themselves, appearing in three distant places simultaneously, living in

>houses rented for them by the FBI with FBI roommates, dropping their

>sacred Koran in the trash before boarding one of four commercial

>passenger aircraft which they will shortly hijack using box cutters as

>their weapon of persuasion, and adroitly slam them into landmarks, or

>fight a final jihad with gung-ho passengers that cause the plane to

>crash into a Pennsylvania countryside scattering debris over a 6 mile

>area. Oh, and despite an inferno that weakens steel, the passport of the

>purported leader is found on the street just a bit singed. Perhaps

>people who grow up on action cartoons might be able to hold that in

>their reality, but it is likely that most Americans have seen through

>the hoax.

>

>Then within a few hours we know who did it and who organized the

>"attacks on America": Osama bin Laden, a CIA asset paid millions of

>dollars for many years. We quickly manage to arrange a war against

>Afghanistan that has refused to surrender bin Laden who we have been

>tracking for years and listening in on all his conversations and yet

>neglect to arrest when offered when he is in the Sudan, neglect to

>arrest when our agent visits him in the hospital in Dubai. Amazingly we

>are prepared to destroy Afghanistan in just over one month of planning

>and shipping men and materiel. We destroy Afghanistan without finding

>bin Laden and soon are looking elsewhere at Iraq and a new villain, a

>Snidely Whiplash in khaki.

>

>Our government then removes the director of the Organization for the

>Prevention of Chemical Weapons when he audaciously tries to enroll the

>villain in this international treaty and a few months later proclaims

>that our new Snidely has Weapons of Mass Destruction for which UN

>Weapons Inspectors had been searching for the better part of a decade

>and, according to their reports had found and destroyed. Drawing

>opposition for nearly everyone in the world, buying off the rest,

>illegally invade Iraq with a coalition of two and some token kangaroos

>to destroy the Weapons of Mass Destruction and bring liberation and

>freedom to the oppressed people of Iraq. Of course it wouldn't hurt to

>ensure that the dollar remains the world currency so that the

>dilapidated US economy has enough cash flow to get to the next election

>and of course one of the largest oil reserves in a world of declining

>oil supply would be a nice side benefit. Then, of course, there is the

>attraction of bases in Iraq from which to reach into the largest of the

>world's oil reserves in the "-stans," Uzbekistan, Kyrgistan, Kazakhstan.

>But of course, only because they were making Americans more secure from

>terrorists.

>

>All of this was made possible by 9-11, the hoax.

>The attack on the World Trade Centers and the Pentagon could not have

>happened without a lot of assistance from the key leaders in the

>intelligence and defense community, Cabinet and Executive Branch

>officials, and key bureaucrats. Following the attacks there was an

>apparent, unconscionable willingness of the mainstream corporate press

>to withhold reasonable questioning of the anomalies and inconsistencies

>that abound. At Andrews Air Force Base five miles from the Pentagon,

>pilots demanded to get airborne but were ordered to stand down. Aircraft

>launched from Otis AFB on Cape Cod and from Langley AFB in Virginia

>loafed along at speeds that would barely keep them in the air. The

>headquarters of the largest, most powerful, military ever assembled on

>the planet was vulnerable to attack without any defense.

>

>9/11 was a hoax. This is no longer a wild conspiracy assertion; it is a

>fact, supported by thousands of other verifiable facts, foremost of

>which are:

>

>* The attacks of 9/11 COULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED without the willful

>failure of the American defense system. In Washington, Air Force pilots

>demanded to fly but were ordered to stand down. Yet instead of

>prosecuting the president and military leaders for this unprecedented

>dereliction of duty, military leaders were promoted and the president

>was praised for presiding over a defense system that suspiciously failed

>the most crucial test in its history. None of the deaths would have

>happened without the deliberate unplugging of America's air defenses.

>

>

> Planes that lose contact with control towers are usually

>intercepted by fighter jets inside of ten minutes, as the incident with

>the golfer's plane a few months earlier so clearly demonstrated. Yet on

>9/11, the jetliners that struck New York were allowed to proceed

>unmolested for more than a half-hour, and the plane that supposedly

>crashed in Washington was not intercepted for more than an hour and

>forty minutes after it was widely known that four planes had been

>hijacked.

>

>* The twin towers could not have collapsed as a result of burning

>jet fuel. Most of that fuel was consumed on impact. In the south tower,

>most of the fuel was spilled outside the building. Heat caused by

>burning jet fuel does not reach temperatures needed to melt steel. What

>does stand out as particularly suspicious and still unexplained is that

>fires raged out of control beneath THREE of the collapsed towers for ONE

>HUNDRED DAYS, clearly indicating the presence of some kind of substance

>utilized in the demolition of the structures.

>

>

> The Twin Towers did not fall because of plane impacts or fires.

>Most likely explosives were placed on structural supports in the towers

>(as was done in Oklahoma City), and these controlled implosions snuffed

>out the lives of three thousand people.

>

>* FBI Director Robert Mueller insisted officials had no idea this

>kind of attack could happen when in fact the FBI had been investigating

>the possibility of EXACTLY this kind of attack for almost TEN YEARS.

>Numerous previous attempts at using planes as weapons, intimate

>knowledge of terror plans called Project Bojinka, and knowledge of

>suspicious characters attending flight schools who were being monitored

>by the FBI make his utterance a clear lie on its face.

>

>

> In the weeks before 9/11, the U.S. received warnings from all

>over the world that an event just like this was about to happen, but FBI

>investigations into suspected terrorists were suppressed and those

>warnings were deliberately disregarded.

>

>* The names of the alleged hijackers, all ostensibly Muslims, were

>released to the public only hours after the attacks, despite Mueller

>saying we had no knowledge this would happen. This is an impossible

>twist of logic. If he didn't know of a plan to strike buildings with

>planes, how would he know the names of the hijackers? Various artifacts

>were discovered in strategic places to try to confirm the government's

>story, but these have all been dismissed as suspicious planting of

>evidence. Since that time several names on that list have turned up

>alive and well, living in Arab countries. Yet no attempt has ever been

>made to update the list. And why were none of these names on the

>airlines' passenger lists?

>

>* Much like the invasion of Iraq, the anthrax attacks were

>designed to deflect attention from unanswered 9/11 questions in the

>patriotic pandemonium that followed the tragedy. In addition to making

>large amounts of money for the president's father and his friends from

>the hasty sale of inefficient drugs to a panicked populace, the

>investigation into these killings was abruptly halted when the trail of

>evidence led straight to the government's door, and has not been

>reopened. The anthrax attacks also amped up the climate of fear and

>deflected attention from the passage of the government's repressive

>Patriot Act.

>

>* The Patriot Act was presented in the days after the tragedy

>supposedly as a response to it, yet it was clear that this heinous act,

>drafted to nullify provisions for freedom in the U.S. Constitution, was

>put together long before 9/11. In addition, testimony by Rep. Ron Paul

>(R-Texas) revealed that most members of Congress were compelled to vote

>for the bill without even reading it. This was a vote to eliminate the

>Constitutional Bill of Rights, which has defined American freedom for

>200 years, and it was accomplished when legislators voted for the bill

>without even reading it.

>

>* The invasion of Afghanistan was presented as an attempt to

>pursue the alleged perpetrators of 9/11, yet it had been discussed for

>years prior to the tragedy and actually planned in the months before the

>attacks on New York and Washington. Statements by Zbigniew Brzezinski

>and the Republican-written Project for a New American Century have

>stressed that America needed a formidable enemy to accomplish its

>aggressive geopolitical aims. The supposed enemy we attacked in

>Afghanistan was a diverse group of men from all over the world who were

>initially recruited, encouraged and supported by the American CIA.

>

>* The hole in the Pentagon was not made by a jumbo jet. Damage to

>the building was simply not consistent with the size of the hole nor the

>absence of debris. At the supposed point of impact, a whole bank of

>windows remained unbroken and there were no marks on the lawn. No

>airplane debris (except what was planted on the lawn) nor remains of

>passengers were ever found.

>

>* The president has admitted that he continued to read a story to

>schoolchildren in a Florida school for 30 minutes after being informed

>that two planes had struck New York and that the nation was under

>attack. He has never explained this puzzling behavior, nor how he saw

>the first plane hit. It was never televised, only recorded by a French

>crew filming firemen in New York. In that film, the plane in question

>does not appear to be a passenger airliner.

>

>* The plane in Pennsylvania was shot down and broke apart in

>midair. No other explanation can account for the wreckage, which was

>spread over a six-mile area, or the eyewitness accounts that describe

>debris falling from the sky.

>

>* Cellphone calls cannot be made from airliners in flight that are

>not close to the ground. As research by Professor A. K. Dewdney has

>shown, the emotional conversations between hijacked passengers and

>others would not have been possible under conditions that existed at

>that moment. These calls were cynical fabrications, exploiting the

>distraught emotions of those who lost loved ones.

>

>* Radio communications from

> firefighters on the upper

>floors of the Trade Center towers clearly indicate that fires were under

>control and the structure was in no danger of collapsing.

>

>These are merely a few of the deliberately false statements made by U.S.

>officials about 9/11. They provide crystal clear evidence that our

>president, his staff, and many legislators should be indicted on charges

>of treason, obstruction of justice and mass murder. Above all, these

>evil men should be removed from their positions of authority before they

>implement more of their moneymaking murder schemes like the one they are

>now perpetrating on the innocent people of Iraq.

>

>Otherwise, we face a future of endless war abroad and merciless

>repression at home.

>Consider just a few more of the other unanswered questions from among

>the thousands of unexplained loose ends that all point to 9/11 being an

>inside job.

>

>* Who benefited from the suspiciously high numbers of put options

>purchased prior to September 11 for shares in companies whose stock

>prices subsequently plummeted, on the supposition that whoever was

>behind the hijacking was also behind most of the purchases of these put

>options? And what was the role of the new executive director of the CIA,

>Buzzy Krongard, who handled these transactions?

>

>* Why was the debris from the collapsed Twin Towers removed from

>the site with no forensic examination? Why was almost all of it sold to

>scrap merchants and shipped abroad where it would not be available for

>scientific examination?

>

>* Why does the government refuse to release any transcripts of

>communications or any records at all relating to signals of any form

>transmitted by those jets?

>

>* Why did so many people, from San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown to

>many employees of companies in the World Trade Center who failed to come

>to work that day, know in advance that something bad was going to happen

>on Sept. 11, 2001?

>

>* Why do all the major U.S. media continue to act as if none of

>these questions is legitimate or relevant?

>

>Today, millions of people around the world are protesting the criminal

>destruction of the nation of Iraq. But these protests won't change the

>number of minds necessary to stop America's criminal madmen from

>continuing with their genocidal aim of enslaving the entire world.

>

>What WILL stop them is spreading the realization that President George

>W. Bush and his billionaire accomplices in the oil industry perpetrated

>9/11 as an excuse to begin the militarization of America for the purpose

>of world conquest.

>

>History has shown all too clearly the deceived American people WILL

>support the destruction of faraway countries on phony pretexts of

>defending so-called freedom.

>

>Thus the needless wars continue. Right now we watch high-tech weapons

>slaughter the defenseless people of Iraq. Soon it will be Iran, Syria,

>Colombia, Venezuela, North Korea, Egypt, Libya, Nigeria, North Korea,

>Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and who knows where else. All these misguided

>But the American people will not - and cannot - tolerate leaders who
