![]() 9/11 Propaganda Fact or Fiction by John Lee
9/11 Conspiracies Fact or Fiction was generally a disappointment, due to its lack of factual content. Hurst Publications, owner of History Channel, has lowered the bar for Yellow Journalism (TM). If you enjoy Popular Mechanics magazine, its hijacking of History Channel may also appeal to your preference for lack of technical information. I quit reading PopMech 30 years ago, due to my study of engineering, though it was okay for skipping class in the high school library, or waiting to have my gums scraped in a dentist's office. Cover stories in PopMech include "Aliens Fact or Fantasy", "When UFOs Arrive What Will You Do", and "When Terrorists Go Nuclear", showing a nuke mushroom cloud at the World Trade Center in January 1996. Plus PopMech's 9/11 Lies cover story, which is the foundation of its 9/11 Conspiracies on History Channel. What did PopMech know and when did they know it? This TV script was written for school children who lack technical and critical-thinking skills. At least it exposes viewers to the aroma of Truth. Bad publicity is better than no publicity. Unsubstantiated alibis are sufficient to send defendants to the executioner. Co-owner of History Channel is NBC, employer of Lester Holt, narrator of 9/11 Conspiracies. NBC is co-owned by Carlyle Group, owned by Sir George Bush Sr Knight of the British Empire, his German cousin the Queen of England Elizabeth Sax Coberg Gotha, British prime ministers John Major and Tony Blair, the Saudi royal family, and the Bin Ladens. On September 11, 2001, George Bush Sr was eating breakfast with Shafig Bin Laden, brother of Usama, in Washington DC. Members of Carlyle Group are currently sued for perping the 9/11 attacks. They are defended by James Baker, general counsel for Carlyle Group, the former secretary of state for Bush Sr who told Saddam Hussein it was okay to invade Kuwait. The Jersey Girls were censored from 9/11 Conspiracies, as plaintiffs in that lawsuit. They have produced their own TV documentary, 9/11 Press For Truth. Other 9/11 victims' and their families have sued the Jr Bush White House for perping the 9/11 massacres, including RICO Act litigation. Plaintiff Ellen Mariani was censored from 9/11 Conspiracies. Pentagon and CIA's signed confession to perping the 9/11 Massacres via fake CIA airliners hijacked by remote control -- declassified Operation Northwoods -- was censored from 9/11 Conspiracies. Northwoods included fake funerals for CIA passengers who did not die in fake airline crashes. Read the full text of Operation Northwoods and you will know why it's the #1 censored document in US history. 9/11 Conspiracies included video of World Trade Center 7 exploding and free-falling in 6 seconds, despite not being hit by an aircraft, and with only tiny fires. Physicist Dr Steven Jones was interviewed, but his laboratory finding of Thermite and Thermate was censored, as was video of Thermite lava pouring out of World Trade Center before its explosion and freefall. Australian Jew Larry Silverstein's confession to "pulling" WTC7 was included, for which he was paid $7-billion profit on his six-week rental contract. Contrary to PopMech's Davin Coburn, "PULL" is defined in Webster's Dictionary as "demolition", and defined on PBS TV as controlled demolition of WTC6, according to Controlled Demolition Inc. Other productions on History Channel and A&E cover relevant background research, such as its feature on CDI bombing 7,000 government buildings in 2001, killer robot jetplanes like Global Hawk, Italian mobsters perping terrorist bombings in New York City during World War 2, Jewish mafia control of the Italian Mafia in New York for over 100 years, and Jewish historians reporting "Jewish" (non-Semitic) ancestry of the top Nazis during World War 2 (including Adolf Hitler Shicklegruber Rothschild and Reinhardt Heidrich, Gestapo director of the Final Solution). My website September 911 Surprise lists the names of those programs, which is perhaps why my URL was featured by History Channel on 9/11 Conspiracies.
9/11 Conspiracies is obviously an attempt to debunk these History Channel reports, by including a screenshot of "9/11 Jews Did It", without explaining that was a parody website by Jews. This week on CSPAN, Simon Weisenthal Center showed Congress a video of Adam Gadahn on TV [aka Adam Perlman], acting as Usama Bin Laden's official spokesperson. The Jewish Congresswoman confessed that Gadahn is "a good Jewish boy from California", while failing to mention that his parents and grandparents run the Jewish Anti Defamation League. ADL members were convicted of perping terrorist bombings of mosques in USA, and ADL paid millions of dollars for defamation under court order. Bin Laden was never indicted for 9/11, and he denied involvement, as reported by CNN, but he did say Jews did it, as reported by UPI. This House Committee on Homeland Security set up a Thoughtcrime Commission, to arrest all 9/11 Truthers as Islamofascist terrorists, for "Use of the Internet by Terrorists". The Jews also bragged about "counterterrorism through positive sites", which is use of fake websites to sow disinformation. I do recommend purchase of 9/11 Conspiracies, if only to study propaganda and disinformation techniques. The sheer volume of censored historical facts is incredible. As a snapshot in history, it does have value for future historians. As a videotaped confession, it has value for prosecutors in warcrimes trials, of government employees and their co-conspirators in the media mafia. Those crimes are punishable by death. Thanks to Val "Stooges" McClatchey and PopMech for the free advertising on History Channel, for myself, John Lee, my websites PirateNews.org and September911Surprise.com (the only URLs listed?), for my webpage "United Airlines Flight 93 Shot Down".
The discrepancy in McClatchey's alleged photo is that it shows a smoke cloud shaped like a bomb blast, not a continous black cloud from a fuel fire, which must be half a mile wide if it actually came from the alleged crater. She lacked chain of custody, since FBI immediately confiscated her photo on her camera's computer chip, and seized her computer harddrive with photo editing software. McClatchey sued AP and AOL for using her photo without paying her, and she collected donations for "9/11 victims", without accounting for distribution of those funds. These facts were censored from 9/11 Conspiracies. I never emailed, called or stalked Val McClatchey. She was personally interviewed by Wing TV, where she made some curious confessions. I have 50 websites and a weekly TV news broadcast, mostly about 9/11 crimes. I have two RSS sites that require use of a "blog" to post news reports for syndication. I do not allege that Flight 93 was "shot down by a conspiracy", but I do report a confession to shooting it down, as standard operating procedure when a nation is under attack. I do not consider myself a "blogger". But I was employed by US Air Force, where my job was sabotage and controlled demolitions of US government buildings, US military aircraft, and US nuclear weapons, using C4 shaped charges of conventional explosives, TO DETONATE NUCLEAR BOMBS ON ACTIVE US MILITARY BASES. This is a common job for 1,000s of US soldiers. My job also included targeting nukes at WESTERN Europe. I'm also a licensed pilot, aircraft mechanic and manufacturer of homebuilt jet aircraft, with a education in mechanical engineering. My wife was personally offered a bribe, er, job by Secretary of War Dick Cheney during Gulf War #1, to work for him at the Pentagon, after we preferred criminal charges against her commanding officers for lying to Congress, resulting in the firing of USAF chief of staff General Michael Dugan, who was leading Desert Storm at the time. I had a class action lawsuit filed in federal court on 9/11/2001, suing Browning Ferris Industries and Skull and Bones mayor Victor Ashe, for running a car-theft operation, based in Knoxville, Tennessee, alma mater of CDI. BFI and CDI were paid a $3-billion contract to "demolish" WTC "after" 9/11, safely dispose of unexploded ordnance, and destroy the evidence. Ashe is now running torture camps for CIA, as ambassador to Poland. After 9/11, I filed felony charges against Ashe for stealing my cars. Note that The Pet Goat story, read to Bush Jr at Booker School on 9/11, was about car thieves. The main reason for my inclusion in PopMech's 9/11 Lies, and its mockumentary on History Channel, was my questions posed to USAF Colonel Donn de Grand Pre, who named USAF pilot Rick Gibney, who confessed to shooting down Flight 93, and rewarded by Congress and the governor of North Dakota "for heroism on 9/11", and promoted from Major to Lt Col [promoted to full colonel and commanding all Predator Reaper remote-controlled drones in USA]. Either Gibney shot down Flight 93 (with comatose crew and passengers hijacked by remote control, or a replacement robot drone), or the Pentagon staged a psyop fake shootdown (with Flight 93 landing at NASA's base in Cleveland, according the city's mayor). These questions were answered on the Alex Jones radio show, and in follow-up interviews of De Grand Pre, who published a book about it.
Pentagon's declassified Operation Northwoods details official US Govt strategy in False Flag domestic terror attacks, using empty robot airliners bombed by remote control, fake crash debris, fake "Mayday" radio signals, and fake funerals of living CIA passengers. Northwoods was censored in 9/11 Conspiracies and 9/11 Lies. ABCNews.com reported on Northwoods on May 1, 2001, along with Baltimore Sun. Northwoods is archived at the US National Security Archives at George Washington University, in Washington DC. My website includes a screenshot of the official Flight 93 Memorial website at the garbage dump, proving the memorial is a giant "boxcutter" tombstone. This heresy mirrors the burial of WTC victims in Fresh Kills Landfill, for filling potholes with bodyparts. Also censored by PopMech is that its "9/11 researcher", Benjamin Chertoff, is the nephew of Michael Chertoff, Bush Jr's director of US Dept of Homeland Security, which grants immunity to 40-million illegal aliens, and employs 1,000s of illegal aliens as "airport security screeners". Michael Chertoff was born in Communist Czechoslovakia, and his mother was a founding member of the terrorist Mossad spy agency, which employs 1,000s of spies in USA, including Jewish bombers arrested in USA on 9/11/2001. Michael Chertoff is a citizen of Israel, which only allows Jews to immigrate and gain citizenship. Chertoff is translated from Russian as "son of the Devil". US Department of Homeland Security confessed to staging a fake press conference, with FEMA employees posing as "journalists", asking fluff questions during the arson fires that destroyed 1,000s of homes in California. Alex Jones of Infowars radio and Prison Planet TV, who was interviewed in 9/11 Conspiracies, has written his own rebuttal reviews. All in all, 9/11 Conspiracies Fact or Fiction is fiction and propaganda, with a little Truth slipped in, for those capable of doing their own research. But essential viewing for your investigative library. Until state grand juries start doing their jobs and indict the Jr Bush White House and their co-conspirators, and police arrest those conspirators and waterboard them at Gitmo until they confess, we will never know exactly how this dastardly crime was perpetrated. But we can make educated judgments based on facts already in evidence. I look forward to future 9/11 deprogramming on History Channel, discussing the arrests, trials, confessions and sentencing of the Jr Bush White House. After all, Bush Jr has already been arrested four times, and convicted of drunk driving and cocaine, and demoted from pilot to mail clerk for AWOL, and sentenced to six months extra duty for desertion of Vietnam Wars. Bush Sr White House was sued under the RICO Act for terrorist bombings during Iran-Contra, with many convictions and pardons. But this time, not jail them like President Manuel Noriega, let's cut the heads off, as done to President Saddam Hussein. The 9/11 Conspiracy Trials can even be held in Nuremburg, to honor the three arrests of Prescott Bush under the Trading With The Enemy Act, for arming Nazi Germany during World War 2. That will be great TV! See also: Additional PNTV review of 9/11 Conspiracies |

D.C. Train Crash Kills General Who Scrambled Jets on 9/11 Bloomberg.com David F. Wherley Jr., the head of the Washington National Guard who scrambled jets over the city during the 9/11 terrorist attacks, was among those killed in the worst commuter train crash in the city’s history, officials said. Wherley’s wife, Ann, was also among the nine people killed when a train plowed into the rear of a stopped train during rush hour on June 22, Quintin Peterson, a spokesman for the Metropolitan Police Department, said in a telephone interview. Both were 62 and lived in southeast Washington. Wherley was commander of the 113th Fighter Wing at Andrews Air Force base in Maryland during the September 2001 terrorist attacks and sent up aircraft with orders to protect the White House and the Capitol, according to the 9/11 Commission report. He commanded the District of Columbia National Guard from 2003 to 2008, the unit said in a statement. The operator of the train, Jeanice McMillan, 42, of Springfield, Virginia, was also killed, according to Angela Gates, a spokeswoman for the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority.

“The U.S. government has consistently blamed me for being behind every occasion its enemies attack it. I would like to assure the world that I did not plan the recent attacks, which seems to have been planned by people for personal reasons. I have been living in the Islamic emirate of Afghanistan and following its leaders’ rules. The current leader does not allow me to exercise such operations.” "I have already said that I am not involved in the 11 September attacks in the United States. As a Muslim, I try my best to avoid telling a lie. I had no knowledge of these attacks, nor do I consider the killing of innocent women, children and other humans as an appreciable act. Islam strictly forbids causing harm to innocent women, children and other people. Such a practice is forbidden even in the course of a battle. Drug smugglers from all over the world are in contact with the U.S. secret agencies. These agencies do not want to eradicate narcotics cultivation and trafficking because their importance will be diminished. The people in the U.S. Drug Enforcement Department are encouraging drug trade so that they could show performance and get millions of dollars worth of budget. General Noriega was made a drug baron by the CIA and, in need, he was made a scapegoat. In the same way, whether it is President Bush or any other U.S. President, they cannot bring Israel to justice for its human rights abuses or to hold it accountable for such crimes. What is this? Is it not that there exists a government within the government in the United Sates? That secret government must be asked as to who carried out the attacks. I have already said that we are not hostile to the United States. We are against the [U.S. Government] system, which makes other nations slaves of the United States, or forces them to mortgage their political and economic freedom. This system is totally in control of the American-Jews, whose first priority is Israel, not the United States. It is clear that the American people are themselves the slaves of the Jews and are forced to live according to the principles and laws laid by them." "Madam Speaker, I regret that I was unavoidably out of town on October 23, 2007, when a vote was taken on H.R. 1955, the Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act. Had I been able to vote, I would have voted against this misguided and dangerous piece of legislation. This legislation focuses the weight of the U.S. government inward toward its own citizens under the guise of protecting us against "violent radicalization.'' I would like to note that this legislation was brought to the floor for a vote under suspension of regular order. These so-called "suspension'' bills are meant to be non-controversial, thereby negating the need for the more complete and open debate allowed under regular order. It is difficult for me to believe that none of my colleagues in Congress view H.R. 1955, with its troubling civil liberties implications, as "non-controversial.'' There are many causes for concern in H.R. 1955. The legislation specifically singles out the Internet for "facilitating violent radicalization, ideologically based violence, and the homegrown terrorism process'' in the United States. Such language may well be the first step toward U.S. government regulation of what we are allowed to access on the Internet. Are we, for our own good, to be subjected to the kind of governmental control of the Internet that we see in unfree societies? This bill certainly sets us on that course. This legislation will set up a new government bureaucracy to monitor and further study the as-yet undemonstrated pressing problem of homegrown terrorism and radicalization. It will no doubt prove to be another bureaucracy that artificially inflates problems so as to guarantee its future existence and funding. But it may do so at great further expense to our civil liberties. What disturbs me most about this legislation is that it leaves the door wide open for the broadest definition of what constitutes "radicalization.'' Could otherwise non-violent anti-tax, antiwar, or anti-abortion groups fall under the watchful eye of this new government commission? Assurances otherwise in this legislation are unconvincing. In addition, this legislation will create a Department of Homeland Security-established university-based body to further study radicalization and to "contribute to the establishment of training, written materials, information, analytical assistance and professional resources to aid in combating violent radicalization and homegrown terrorism.'' I wonder whether this is really a legitimate role for institutes of higher learning in a free society. Legislation such as this demands heavy-handed governmental action against American citizens where no crime has been committed. It is yet another attack on our Constitutionally-protected civil liberties. It is my sincere hope that we will reject such approaches to security, which will fail at their stated goal at a great cost to our way of life." |
![]() TV propaganda from the sellers of beer, moonshine and coffin nails White UAV, not a Boeing 757, not an A10, not a bizjet, not a Global Hawk? Evidence suggests a sinister twist LONDON DAILY MAIL - "Yet my own exhaustive investigations have led me to conclude that the story of Flight 93 is far from being the straightforward account of supreme courage that the authorities would have us believe. Instead, the real story is mired in cynical manipulation and warmongering propaganda. I am convinced there is evidence to suggest a wholly sinister twist to the tale that already holds pride of place in American folklore. For I believe that Flight 93 may well have been deliberately shot down as a means of stopping it from reaching its ultimate target. According to investigative writer David Ray Griffin, several witnesses saw two F-16s tailing Flight 93 minutes before it went down." 19th August 2006

"The vice president knew the fighter pilots
might have to take out a hijacked passenger jet. 'I recommended we
auhorize them to shoot,' Cheney recalls telling Bush. The president
said, 'OK, I'll sign up to that.' And just about the time Cheney was
ordering fighters to 'engage United Flight 93 - the blip on the radar
screen - crashed into a field in Pennsylvania, 80 miles from the
capital. The pilots flying the patrol, members of the North Dakota Air
National Guard's 119th Fighter Wing, known as the Happy
Hooligans, say their radio frequencies were cluttered with orders
and chatter. At one point, one of the pilots thought he heard the Secret
Service say 'Protect the House' - presumably the White House. Cheney
had been [unelected President Gerald] Ford's chief of staff
during the fall of Saigon [and loss of the United Nation
Corporation's 30-year-long Vietnam Wars]. By the afternoon on
September 11, intelligence reports had placed the blame for the attacks
on Al Qaeda ["The Database"], the terror network headed by Osama Bin
Laden [partnered with the Bush family since 1947 and whose mother was
a Jew from Yemen] and protected by the extremist Islamic Taliban
regime in Afghanistan. Cheney, a history buff,
reflected back to the last time the White House had been attacked - by
the British in 1814 ['forgetting' the successful kamikaze suicide
bombing of the White House on September 11,
2004]" Or, was Flight 93 a robot drone exploded by remote control (AKA Pentagon's Operation NORTHWOODS hijacking terror using 1962 technology), after brave Americans regained control and Pentagon risked discovery of its explosives planted in the new wing of Pentagon - No such plane as invisible American Airlines Flight 77? Was United Flight 93 originally targeted for Pentagon strike, then replaced by the "mysterious white jet" described by eyewitnesses? Or, is the "white jet" a United Nations NATO A-10 Thunderbolt Warthog flown by a foreign pilot? Check out USAF Unmanned Vehicle Museum at Wright Patterson Air Force Base, of US robotic aircraft used since World War One, where USAF's robotic Global Hawk matches the eyewitness description exactly of a "white" jet, and is incidentally the same wingspan as a Boeing 737. USAF's robotic "Compass Arrow" is a Vietanam War stealth jet with similar tail section that could also be painted white. USAF museum includes civilian aircraft converted to robot drones for the past 40 years.
911 Test with Colonel Donn de Grand Pre, Alex Jones and John Lee Flight 93! Interview with Colonel Donn de Grand-pre, US Army Air Corps and OSS (retired) With host Alex Jones and John Lee of Pirate News Transcript 1:40-hour interview with Colonel Donn de Grand Pre, author of
Barbarians Inside the Gates: Alex Jones: We are talking to Col. Donn de Grand-Pre and he worked in many of the levels of the U.S. military and has put out some really important information. Two years ago, he put out a report in a meeting in a 72-hour deliberation, a group of military and civilian U.S. pilots under the chairmanship of Col. Donn de Grand-Pre. After deliberating non-stop for 72-hours has concluded that the flight crews of the four passenger airliners involved in the September 11th tragedy had no control over the aircraft. And they get into how the military industrial complex clearly, that is elements of it, were in control of this. Colonel, we are going to go to some calls here in a minutes after you cover some other issues with us. But, understand this, my question of what percentage of the officers, period, in the military do you think have finally woken up to the true magnitude of what's going on? Colonel Donn de Grand Pre: Well, I'm in personal contact at least on a weekly basis with the Joint Chiefs and other select people. My computation is that 70% of us are with us. That's the higher ranking military, field grade officers, etc. and even the first three grades of the enlisted ' 70% are with us.... John Lee (executive
producer of PirateNews.org CATV and
webmaster of September 911
Surprise): "Colonel, did a cruise
missile hit the Pentagon, or a Global Hawk, or a
drone business jet?" Colonel Donn de Grand Pre: "You are talking about what hit the
Pentagon, right John? It was a cruise missile. It could have been a Global
Hawk. It was not a commercial aircraft." Alex Jones: "That's what the eye-witnesses said and the evidence
shows. And do people realize that this was staged at the Pentagon? I mean
obviously it's in an area that's under renovation and then all this
happens. Do people at the Pentagon? are they still buying the official
story, Colonel?" Colonel Donn de Grand Pre: "Well, I can't speak for the rest of
them but I'm certainly not buying that. And I think I've got the full
story in book 3. And that's it. It was a diversionary hit for strategic
reasons and it didn't matter whether it was a pilotless drone or a Global
Hawk missile. It wasn't a commercial aircraft." Alex Jones: "It's the most surveilled area in the world but no
video of it. Witnesses said they saw a small aircraft." Colonel Donn de Grand Pre: "No, they did not. We have [garbled]
a video that purports to show a firing of a launch probably from a Global
Hawk or an unmanned aircraft missile but it certainly wasn't a commercial
aircraft." John Lee "And was United Airlines Flight 93 shot down in Pennsylvania by a U.S. or NATO pilot, and was that what was supposed to hit the Pentagon [instead of American Airlines Flight 77]?" Colonel Donn de Grand Pre: No, that was hit at 10:00 hours. It was taken out by the North Dakota Air Guard. I know the pilot who fired those two missiles to take down 93. John Lee Was it shot down because the airline pilots actually regained control of the hijacked auto-pilot, or was that to replace the unmanned drone that was shot down? Colonel Donn de Grand Pre: No, it was the aircraft, you see, had totally unconscious people on board. There were no hijackers. At 9:35, the Happy Hooligans, the Air Guard flying the F-16s were ordered to take that plane out. And they took it out from 9:35 to 10:00.
John Lee: Were there any refueling jets involved in that operation? Alex Jones: Hold on a second, John. The question is why would they deviate from the plan of flying it into the Capitol? Why did the globalists decide to go ahead and shoot the plane down? Colonel Donn de Grand Pre: There had been an adjustment to the controls, probably by an AWACs aircraft flying overhead, again, remote control. And it was on a course for either the Capitol or the White House. And at this stage, you don't know. The Happy Hooligans came in and took care of it. Alex Jones: Do you think they were not following orders? Colonel Donn de Grand Pre: Who, the Happy Hooligans? Alex Jones: Well, yeah, you've got Cheney running around, we've got the stand down taking place. Colonel Donn de Grand Pre: Well, this is correct, but you see the Adj. General of the State of North Dakota gave the command to take it out. And, by God, they took it out. And I've got the full story in the book. Alex Jones: That's a good thing they did that. You said you talked to the pilot. Think about this folks. Imagine what Bush would have gotten if he would have had that plane fly into the Capitol? Imagine the police state we would be in right now. Colonel Donn de Grand Pre: Yes, yes, yes, indeed. Alex Jones: And so you had to have the diversionary blast at the Pentagon so no one would get suspicious and think it was a military coup. Colonel Donn de Grand Pre: Perhaps, perhaps. Alex Jones: John, does that answer your question? John Lee Were there any refueling tankers used by the North Dakota Air Guard and what tanker wing was used? Colonel Donn de Grand Pre: I don't know about the aircraft itself. I don't know about refueling. They came off base in Langley and it was just a few minutes out from Langley to the intercept over Pennsylvania. It was just a matter of minutes. Alex Jones: Colonel, how did you get in touch with the pilot who shot the plane down? Colonel Donn de Grand Pre: It turned out to be an old friend of mine from the Air National Guard and this is my home state of North Dakota. And I attended the ceremony in North Dakota and watched the Adj. General [garbled] the pilot being decorated a year later for this activity that happened on 911 with Flight 93. BREAK Alex Jones: Welcome back. We are about to go back to the Colonel and his amazing revelation of the North Dakota National Guard that had been moved to Langley Virginia a few months before 911. And then went in there and shot down that Flight 93 over Pennsylvania. He says he's talked to the pilot. His info checks out. I've been researching what he's been doing for years. Before we go back to our guest and 4 final calls from Scott and June and Warren and Greg, and we'll go to you quick too, because we've got a bunch of news we need to get to. [Skipped segment] Alex Jones: Colonel, before we take these four final calls, go over that a little bit slower for folks. That's a big deal. You talked to the pilot, a friend of yours, who shot down Flight 93 that was going for the Capitol or the White House. And go over that for folks. Colonel Donn de Grand Pre: Okay, quick rundown. They were out of Hector Field, Fargo, North Dakota. A bunch, this 119 Fighter Group and they are called the Happy Hooligans. They are probably the best interceptors that we have in the country. They were moved to Langley Air Force Base from Hector Field down to Southern Virginia. And when the klaxon horn went off at 9:35, those two pilots put down their coffee and shot into their aircraft and took off. They didn't know where they were going initially but by 10:00 hours, they had rendezvoused over Southern Pennsylvania. That's about 250 miles in just a matter of minutes and engaged 93 with two side-winder missiles. And they accomplished their objective. Now Hector Field, I use to fly out of Hector Field some time ago. I know most of those pilots. I could name names. I know the National Guard Adj. General. And they were decorated about a year later and I have the full write up of that story in my book. Alex Jones: Yeah and it's just ignored by the media. I have that article, too. And later, well okay, it was a missile, well there wasn't "Let's Roll." It's all made-up theatre for the public and we buy it like a bunch of saps.

WAS IT HOMICIDE BY POISON?
It is alleged in lawsuits filed in US federal courts that "President" George Bush Jr. and his gang massacred over 3,000 people in USA on September 11, 2001, to falsely point the blame at Muslim terrorists from the oil-rich Middle East, to "justify" invasion of those soverign nations. Just like the Pentagon Joint Chiefs and US Secretary of Defense plotted to perp in 1963 with Operation NORTHWOODS, to falsely blame Communist Cuba. NORTHWOODS included hijacking US airliners by remote control and blowing them up in midair, after substituting the original airliners with robot drone CIA aircraft repainted to appear like the airliners. The real airliners were to be safely landed at remote military airports, including Eglin AFB in Florida which has TEN separate airports (one of which is currently used as a CONCENTRATION DEATH CAMP for "suspected terrorists" without criminal charges, without bail, without lawyers, without trial, without appeal). After 9-11-2001, it was reported in mainline media that the alleged Arab "terrorists" were alive and well AFTER 9-1-2001, and that they were educated in language and flight training at the US Defense Language Institute in Monteray, California, the Pensacola Naval Air Station in Florida, and at a CIA drug-running airport in Boca Raton, Florida. It was also officially reported that at least one of the crashed airliners actually landed safely at a civilian airport, and was parked in a "special remote hanger", away from prying eyes. The Boeing 757/767 "airliner" that allegedly crashed into the Pentagon was declared by eyewitnesses on CNN TV News to actually be a single-engine Cruise Missile, probably a robotic Global Hawk, which is the same size as a Boeing 737 airliner (two of the Pentagon's brand-new Global Hawks are officially "missing" in action after "crashing"). It has been reported by an eyewitness employee of FOX TV, on FOX TV News, that the Boeing 757/767 "airliners" that crashed into the World Trade Center were NOT "passenger airliners" because they had no windows, and were NOT painted in colors of American Airlines nor United Airlines ("911 In Plane Site" video/DVD). None of the video broadcasts from 9-11-2001 show windows in the "airliners" that hit the WTC. Boeing's 757/767 is reportedly the only aircraft with built-in capability for remote-control flight, as an "anti-hijacking" countermeasure, which airline pilots are on record as warning this technology can also be used to hijack airliners by remote control. What does Wing Commander Colonel Keenan know about Boeing 757 tanker-refueling aircraft being substituted for airliners on 9-11-2001? That's not the sort of insider info the elite serial killers in the White House can afford to reach public scrutiny - nor courtroom prosecution....
Flight 93 Shootdown Pilot Identified Infowars.com Col. Don de Grand-pre first broke the story of the Happy Hooligans (HappyHooligans.com and F16Viper.org) and the shootdown of Flight 93 during his interview on The Alex Jones Show back in February [transcript]. Alex spoke with Col. De Grand-Pre today, who confirms the information in this article. [However, contrary to the spin in this report by LetsRoll911.org, the information published in mainline news reports clearly shows that the Pentagon commanders overrode the illegal "Stand-Down Order" from Cheney, Bush and Rumsfeld, and the military commanders shot the airliner down to prevent additional deaths on the ground in Washington DC. Cheney did not issue his "shoot-down order" until AFTER all the robot-controlled planes crashed into their "official" targets and caused maximum carnage.] LetsRoll911.org LetsRoll has discovered the name of the pilot as well as all other pertinent information regarding this incident; "At precisely 0938 hours, an alarm was sounded at Langely Air Force Base, and those whom were on call, drinking coffee, were scrambled. Thus the 119th Fighter Wing was off for an intercept.
They, the Happy Hooligans, a unit of 3 F-16 aircraft, were ordered to head toward Pennsylvania. At 0957 they spotted their target; After confirmation orders were received, A one Major Rick Gibney fired two sidewinder missiles at the aircraft and destroyed it in mid flight at precisely 0958; He was awarded a medal from the Governor one year later for his heroic actions. As well as Decorated by Congress on 9/13/2001. The Happy Hooligans were previously stationed in North Dakota, and moved to Langley Air Force base some months before 911 occured on a "Temporary assignment." Major Rick Gibney did as he was ordered and did nothing criminal. He was merely following orders, of which he had no choice. Please do not harrass this man or bother him for doing what his CO & ultimately George Bush, ordered him to do. Major Rick Gibney has no reason to feel guilty nor regret following orders. The fault lies with his superiors, and a one, certain President George Bush who planned and engineered 911. Please do not heap any kind of abuse onto this man, a crack fighter pilot, one of the best in our nation, for doing what he was trained and ordered to do. He is a good man, honest and full of Integrity as well as unlimited discipline. He is a patriot, and was lied to and deceived. He had no way to know that this plane wasn't a 'hostile.' Nor could he have. The fault lies with his superiors, and President George 'Dubya' Bush. Flight 93 has now been forever solved by truth, and honest reporting and investigating, from letsroll911.org! Major Rick Gibney, please do not read this as anything but the truth that the world deserves to know as true history. You played a part, but it was your superiors who deceived both you and everyone else regarding Flight 93. I didn't relish printing your name, as your innocent of any evil doing. yet it's history, and truth, and the world deserves to know. And your safer now that this truth is out there, than if it was not. But the world would appreciatte an honest reply and statement from you on this issue, but only when your able and ready. The source of this information Mr. Gibney was very careful to point out your high quality of charachter and lack of malice or malfeasance in these issues. Your integrity is no way harmed by these revelations, as you were ignorant of the total picture of what was happening that day, and following orders as you were trained to do in an emergency. I apologize for having to print your name, but felt it neccessary for both the truth to come forward, and your own safety. Major Rick Gibney..."Lets Roll" See also: AirForceLink - AF.MIL TV

Sgt. Kevin J. Gruenwald Eight years have passed since fighter pilots last "locked on" to "enemy" targets and dueled in the skies over the Gulf of Mexico during a William Tell exercise. The Air Force's many global commitments contributed to the exercise's hiatus. However, the 50th anniversary of the air-to-air event was worth the wait. "Most of us work in a competitive environment, but seldom actually get to experience the nerves and pressure associated with true competition," said Capt. Travis Hazeltine of the 19th Fighter Squadron, Elmendorf Air Force Base, Alaska. "William Tell gives you a chance to experience that and the opportunity to perform accordingly." Pilots, weapons loaders and maintainers from four major commands and the Air National Guard went to Tyndall Air Force Base, Fla.--the "Home of Air Superiority"--to compete. There, judges tested and evaluated aircrews on their ability to perform under combat conditions. Participants competed for points in five aircrew flying profile scenarios ranging from live-fire exercises pitting the F-15C against an MQM-107E subscale drone to an Operation Noble Eagle homeland defense no-notice aircrew scramble. While William Tell highlighted air-to-air combat maneuvers, pilots couldn't launch without support crews. On the ground, maintainers, weapons directors and bomb loaders demonstrated their skills--keeping jets flying and loaded in record time and earning coveted points toward team totals. Every Airman worked toward the same goals: showcase unit pride, represent the respective command and base and, of course, take home the trophy. The teams at this year's competition were the 71st Fighter Squadron from the 1st Fighter Wing, Langley Air Force Base, Va. (Air Combat Command); 95th Fighter Squadron from the 325th Fighter Wing, Tyndall Air Force Base, Fla. (Air Education and Training Command); 123rd Fighter Squadron from the 142nd Fighter Wing, Portland Air National Guard Base, Ore.; 19th Fighter Squadron from the 3rd Fighter Wing, Elmendorf Air Force Base, Alaska (Pacific Air Forces); and the 493rd Fighter Squadron from the 48th Fighter Wing, Royal Air Force Lakenheath, England (U.S. Air Forces in Europe). Pacific Air Force's 19th Fighter Squadron "Gamecocks"--with their souped-up F-15C Eagles--beat the competition and took the team trophy back to Elmendorf. The squadron's Capt. Pete Fesler was awarded the Top Gun trophy, and the unit was recognized as the top weapons load team.

When the Air Force's newest fliers advance from undergraduate pilot training to fighter school, they quickly enter a world of intense competition and pressure. There, raw students - after hooking horns with seasoned F-15/16 instructors - learn air combat's golden rule: only first place matters. Taking second over Iraq or Korea could mean the loss of a million-dollar jet, or worse, its driver. To gain such dominance, fighter units must reach and maintain one of the Air Force's core competencies: air superiority. Fogleman calls it "essential" on the battlefield. "With it, everything is possible," he said. "Without it, nothing is possible." But unlike the classic dogfight era immortalized by aces like Eddie Rickenbacker and Robin Olds, achieving air superiority today takes more warriors than just those sitting in the cockpit; it takes, as Fogleman noted, the work of many people. People all contributing to putting steel on target - maintainers, weapons directors and loaders. Hence, the need for William Tell - the Air Force's premier air-to-air competition. Held biennially at Tyndall Air Force Base, Fla., and conducted by Air Combat Command, William Tell pushes fighter units, including those from Canada, to achieve air superiority under combat conditions, to intercept and destroy enemy jets. And it assesses tactics and weapons, and fine-tunes air and ground crews. In short, it drives Air Force warriors to meet their mantra: fly, fight, win. "William Tell has become synonymous with the competition for air-to-air supremacy," said Gen. Thomas Moorman, Air Force vice chief of staff, to more than 300 participants during opening ceremonies for William Tell '96. "This is, without a doubt, the toughest [such] competition in the world." Named after the legendary Swiss archer, the competition, since 1954, has tested the Air Force's best fighters during mock air battles. It still does today, but a soaring real-world operations tempo has forced some changes. With regional hotspots seemingly always erupting, active-duty Air Force fighter wings have been stretched to meet the demands of global contingencies. The resulting ops tempo - also felt by the airlift community - has included frequent deployments to Europe and Southwest Asia for Operations Deny Flight, Decisive Force, Vigilant Warrior and Southern Watch, among others. Such commitments forced the 42-year-old meet into altering its format to ease the heavy burden already placed on many units, said Maj. Mike Stansbury, William Tell '96 operations chief. One significant change was in the way William Tell selected players. Participants, in years past, received invitations directly from William Tell organizers. But for 1996, they were routed to major commands, which then selected units able to spare people and planes. The result: several new teams suited up for what could be called intramural combat for fighter squadrons, including - for the first time - one from the Air Force Reserve and Air Education and Training Command. "Many of the regular players simply couldn't play due to real-world priorities," Stansbury said. Another significant change was cutting the meet's length from two weeks to one, with only three days of actual flying. "We didn't feel we could afford to take the same amount of time from the participants as we had in the past," explained Brig. Gen. Ronald Keys, commander of the 53rd Wing, Eglin AFB, Fla., the organization responsible for fighter operational testing and evaluation. "If you look at how busy we are around the world, it became a problem for wings to support the competition for an entire two weeks." Other format changes included: Each command (except U.S. Air Forces in Europe and the Canadian air force) sent one team composed of two different elements. Two out of the four flying profiles were eliminated, along with one of two weapons loads. And teams competed in each profile with two aircraft instead of four. Now shaped in a "come-as-you-are" mode that minimized preparation time, Keys said William Tell '96 actually mirrored how Air Force wings respond to no-notice deployments. He compared it to a contingency in which units have a relatively short amount of time to deploy, and then go into action almost immediately. "It puts a premium on being ready all the time," the general said. Even with the considerable changes, participation in the air-to-air meet still presents challenges, especially for those stationed overseas. For example, the Pacific Air Forces team, composed of units from Kadena and Misawa ABs, Japan, flew 18 hours and crossed 11 time zones to bring 35 members and six jets (three F-15s and three F-16s) to Tyndall. Lt. Col. Rob Graeter, PACAF team chief, said it's a major deployment "for us anytime we go anywhere." Furthermore, any trip for a PACAF unit, whether it be for real-world reasons or an exercise, requires more logistics and aircraft preparation than some other commands, he added. Capt. Bruce Till, an F-15C pilot from Kadena, called participation in William Tell "ops normal," meaning the competition is an extension of an already busy deployment schedule. Though Till's words ring a tough truth, they aren't complaints - just a fact of life for any flying wing. And the same rings true when saying only first place counts in air combat and that air superiority needs the effort of many people, from many different functions. For these reasons alone, participants felt sacrifices made to attend William Tell '96 justified the effort. "In a fighter squadron, you must depend on everyone," said SMSgt. Jerry Wilson, production supervisor for the 48th Fighter Wing, RAF Lakenheath, England. "Here, people are even having to do more to make things work. They are learning what it takes to maintain and operate a successful combat unit." During the week-long, pressure-filled competition, the seven teams flew in two profiles. In profile 1, called Cold Mission, fighters maintained a combat air patrol pattern in huge chunks of airspace occupied by one friendly aircraft and three enemy ones. The object: to knock off the bandits within three minutes and 20 seconds. In profile 2, called Element Attack, a two-ship element armed with live missiles hunted down targeted drones. On the ground, maintainers were judged daily on procedures, aircraft performance, and standards compliance and serviceability. And weapons loaders competed in one static munitions load while weapons directors were scrutinized during data relay. The top finishers were: Top Team: 4th Wing, Canadian Forces Base Cold Lake, Alberta Top operations: Canadian Forces Top Gun: Capt. Steve Nierlich (Canadian Forces) Top element: Canadian Forces Top maintenance team: Air Force Reserve Top maintenance element: 35th Fighter Wing, Misawa AB, Japan (PACAF) Top weapons load: Air National Guard Top weapons load element: 33rd Fighter Wing, Eglin AFB, Fla. (ACC) Top weapons director team: Canadian Forces Top scope: Staff Sgt. Jeff Craver (Canadian Forces) Lt. Marc Ouellet, Canadian team chief, said he was "ecstatic" with their wins. "They are an indication of the top quality people we have." Included in that group was Craver, the Top Scope winner and an Air Force staff sergeant assigned to the 22nd Wing, North Bay, Canada, as part of an exchange program. Even though every team wanted to win, William Tell is one time where fighter units can afford to take other than first place. It's a time of learning and old-fashioned camaraderie, according to Lt. Col. Gary Roberts, William Tell project officer. "Everyone wants to come in and do their best," said Roberts. "But the main thrust behind William Tell is esprit de corps. We want to show the rest of world how good we really are." Happy Hooligans GlobalSecurity.org
The 119th Fighter Wing, also known as the "Happy Hooligans," began operations with the F-51D in 1947. On April 1, 1951, the Hooligans were mobilized for federal service and ordered to active duty during the Korean conflict. Happy Hooligan pilots flew the F-51D until 1954, the F-94 A/C from 1954-60, the F-89D/J from 1960-66, the F-102A from 1966-69 and the F-101B from 1969-77. In 1977, the Hooligans began flying the F-4D Phantom, accumulating more than 51,000 hours from 1977 to 1990 without a Class A mishap. Since converting to the F-16A in April 1990, the Hooligans have flown an additional 30,000 accident-free flight hours. Air Defense alert has been a major part of the North Dakota Air National Guard’s tasking since September of 1953. The unit provided alert coverage at Fargo, with either two or four aircraft continuously on status, until March 1990 when home station alert was discontinued. A permanent alert detachment at Kingsley Field, Oregon, was assigned to the 119th beginning October 1, 1989. The detachment, staffed by 18 members, was relocated to March Air Force Base, California, in July of 1994. The first overseas deployment of the North Dakota Air Guard occurred in 1983, with six F-4s and 120 support personnel deploying to Keflavik, Iceland. Eight Russian TU-95 Bear bombers were intercepted by Hooligan pilots during the deployment. In 1986, the 119th Fighter Group became the first core unit to assume the USAF Zulu alert mission at Ramstein Air Base, Germany. Referred to as "Creek Klaxon", the 119th and other Air Defense units stood continuous alert for one year, providing air sovereignty in Europe for NATO. During Desert Storm, 107 Happy Hooligans were mobilized and deployed in support of operations at numerous CONUS locations. The C-130 support aircraft assigned to the North Dakota Air National Guard and aircrew also provided stateside airlift of crucial, war-related personnel and equipment to support Desert Storm. The unit has amassed a nearly insurmountable record. Most recently...the Hooligans earned first place at the October 1994 William Tell competition, a worldwide weapons meet which tests pilots and ground crews from the U.S. Air Force's top units in realistic, air-to-air combat situations. This was the Hooligans third William Tell victory, winning in 1970, 1972, and 1994, in addition to placing first among F-4 William Tell units in 1986. In 1994 the NDANG won the prestigious Hughes Trophy which recognizes the most outstanding air-to-air unit in the U.S. Air Force. The only Air National Guard unit to win the award twice, the Hooligans are also the only F-16 unit to ever win the Hughes Trophy. The 119th FW has earned seven Air Force Outstanding Unit Awards. This includes four consecutive periods covering April 1990 through July 1995. The announcement was made in March 1999 that the 119th Fighter Wing would convert from an air defense mission to a general purpose mission with 15 F-16A/B aircraft while activating an alert detachment at Langley AFB, VA. In its 2005 BRAC Recommendations, DoD recommended to realign Hector International Airport Air Guard Station, ND. The 119th Fighter Wing’s F-16s (15 aircraft) would retire. The wing’s expeditionary combat support elements would remain in place. Hector (125) ranked low in military value. The reduction in F-16 force structure and the need to align common versions of the F-16 at the same bases argued for realigning Hector to allow its aircraft to retire without a flying mission backfill. Is the Rick Gibney Flight 93 Story a Hoax? Alex Jones' Prison Planet Yesterday we were able to confirm that Colonel Don de Grand-pre claims he spoke face to face with Maj. Rick Gibney and Gibney told him that he was the pilot who shot down Flight 93. We are still investigating this matter in trying to uncover the truth while not going out on a limb to say whether this is accurate or not. However, an article from a September 11 website states that Gibney was not scrambled to track Flight 93, but that he was flying into New York. The article Derrig, Maj. Dean Eckman and Capt. Craig Borgstrom scrambled from Langley Air Force Base, Va., to protect the nation's capital. Maj. Rick Gibney took off from Fargo to fly the New York emergency management director from Montana to New York.
We have now uncovered footage of the award ceremony in which Gibney is honored for his activities on September 11. Would Gibney be rewarded simply for flying an official to New York?
On the other hand, the official FAA Registry does list Gibney's certificate as 'Airline Transport Pilot.' [NOTE BY JOHN LEE: ATP rating is the highest civilian pilot license and all military pilots must have it if they want a job after their military career is over, or to fly for airlines when off duty, which is what Air National Guard pilots normally do since they are only "Weekend Warriors".]

Air Force Recognition Programs This decoration, one of several Air Force awards established by Congress on July 6, 1960, takes the place of the Soldier's Medal for Air Force personnel. It is awarded to any member of the Armed Forces of the United States or of a friendly nation who, while serving in any capacity with the United States Air Force after the date of the award's authorization, shall have distinguished himself or herself by a heroic act, usually at the voluntary risk of his or her life but not involving actual combat. This medal (pictured below) was designed and sculpted by Thomas Hudson Jones of the Institute of Heraldry. On the obverse of the circular medal is the figure of the Greek god Hermes, son of Zeus, resting on one knee. He has just released from his open hands a falcon, shown rising into flight. Within the raised rim of the medal, is the inscription "Airman's Medal" in raised letters. The reverse of the medal, has a raised outer edge and bears the inscription, "For Valor" above a space for the recipient's name which is within a stylized laurel wreath open at the top and tied at the bottom. The Airman's Medal is unique in that its shape does not follow the octagonal shape of its counterparts, the Soldier's Medal, Navy and Marine Corps Medal and the Coast Guard Medal. It had been established practice heretofore to design military decorations with a distinctive shape, so that they would not be confused at a distance with service or campaign medals, which are always circular in shape. The reason for this is because the design was originally approved for use as The Air Force Distinguished Service Medal. The ribbon is based on that of the soldier's Medal but using different colors. In the center are alternating thin stripes of gold and dark blue, (seven gold and six dark blue) bordered at the edges with wide stripes of pale (sky) blue. Authorized Device: Oak leaf Cluster.

IShotDown93.blogspot.com For too long I have languished over things that I have done in the past. I personally have directed aircraft to targets, knowing full well that people were going about their lives unknowing that they would be dead 30 minutes later. Im not here to talk about my part in war crimes against the peaceful Iraqi people. My story is something more sinister, as long suspected around the world.
On September 11, 2001, the plane I was assigned to, an E-3 Sentry(AWACS) based out of Andrews Air Force Base. As public knowledge now, the US was conducting a pretty expansive war games exercise that was to cover most of North America. Our AWACS was to be the 'eyes and ears' of the mid Atlantic region. Our AOR extended from just below Long Island to South Carolina, and as far west as Kentucky. We took off from Andrews at around 0600. Our patrol course was to take us inland into Ohio where we were to alter course southeast towards southern Virginia. At about 0800, our pilot received orders to loiter between Washington and Pittsburgh.
At 0830, we became aware of the first two hijackings from the pilot. Our mission crew instantly began tracking other airliners in our AOR as potential targets. One of our staff managed to track the two objects that struck the WTC, but he wasnt able to verify the size of the blip as large enough to be an airliner. At 0945, we began receiving frantic updates about the Pentagon being struck by a plane, or even a possible missile. We received a report about a fourth plane heading straight for Washington from inside Pennsylvania. We were able to get some tracking information from air controllers in Pittsburgh, and spotted the plane on radar.
Our mission crew commander was able to get in contact with NORAD for instructions. NORAD authorized us to direct 2 F16s towards the airliner and eliminate the threat over sparsely populated areas. I vectored the planes behind the 757 and instructed them to hold position until further notice.
To be honest, at this point, training and instinct took over. I didnt question what I was ordered to do. I knew from reports from our pilot, our wing commander, and directly from NORAD that something terrible had been happening to the country I was sworn to protect. At approximately 1000, we received a hurried order from NORAD to down the airplane. I nodded and informed the lead F16 that he was authorized to use deadly force and ordered him to eliminate the target.
In less than two minutes, I witnessed firsthand the results of my duties. I tracked the airplane languishing for about another to stay aloft as it decended rapidly towards the ground. An eerie quiet filled our cabin. Our crew commander requested permission to remain in the area in case of further threats. In no uncertain terms, NORAD told him that that wasnt needed anymore. Our pilot was then instructed to Wright Patterson Air Force base in Ohio, as it was the closest installation to us.
When we landed at Wright Patterson, our plane was taxied into an empty hanger at the far end of the runway, which was very unusual to say the least. As we deplaned, each of the pilots were escorted away by some brass and suits. Our mission staff of 15 was also met by brass and suits. We were ushered into debriefing rooms.
I personally gave the order to down Flight 93, so its no surprise in hindsight to what I endured at this point. In my small white room, I was met by an Air Force brigader general and a Navy captain. At first, it went like a standard debriefing. They asked me all kinds of operational stuff and performance related questions. At some point, the general produced a folder and pulled out a few forms. He positioned them in front of me so that I could see what was on them.
He then informed me that by order of the President based on recommendations by the CIA and NSA, that the knowledge of Air Force involvement in the destruction of Flight 93 was to be highly classified and not disclosed to anyone, ever. Still, at this point, I went with the flow, being a big picture guy. I went along with the general and agreed that America had already suffered enough, and that the truth behind Flight 93 would be an unneeded blemish in defending this great country. My debriefing ended, and the next day, I rejoined the rest of my mission crew.
At this point, aircraft operations in the US was limited to mostly military aircraft. Our AWACS was to go back on station and monitor for any potential flights that may have originated from overseas to also be used as weapons against America. Upon boarding our plane, we discovered that our data tapes, backups, and anything that suggested we were operational on Sept 11 was removed. It was almost like we stepped into a plane fresh off the assembly line. Later, our pilots informed us that the FDR and CVR were replaced. We joked with ourselves that we were the 'Ghost of 9-11'.
By Sept 15, our crew was split up. I ended up at a desk at Vandenburg for the next two years, while others were still assigned to flight crew duties, now in Afghanistan. I stood by my belief that I did the right thing up until we were fully engaged in Iraq. I began to have my doubts. In May of 2005, I learned that the pilot who actually fired the missile that took out Flight 93 had died after his F16 ran out of fuel. I found that very notion impossible. Pilots are trained to watch their fuel levels very closely. I looked into if further and found that the pilot of the second F16 wasnt dead, but had been run out of the Air Force a few months after 9-11 because of mental issues. I havent been able to find out much information about my other crew members, but like myself, they are probably in hiding.
I left the Air Force in 2006. I was pressured to stay by very high ranking officers not even in my chain of command. At this point in my life, I saw this almost as a threat. I felt that if I disobeyed the Air Force and left, I could be eliminated myself because of what I knew. I made the decision then to protect myself so that I might reveal what I know. Because of my hertiage and language skills, I have since left the United States and have settled elsewhere. I still fear for my life, but I had to get this information out before its too late.
I hope to be contacted by someone I trust, so I can reveal deep secrets of this cover up, but for obvious reasons, that will have to wait.
Never give up searching for the truth about 9-11. I fear that the truth is far worse than fiction.
The US Air Force Shot Down Flight 93
George Washington's Blog The following comment was posted to my blog today (I do not know who the author is -- he posted semi-anonymously; so decide for yourself whether or not you believe him):
"I am an Air Force veteran. I was serving at Langley AFB, Virginia on Sept. 11. (not to be confused with CIA headquarters at Langley, VA). The "Alert Squadron" of 4 F-16 Falcons also stationed at Langley AFB was scrambled AFTER the "plane" crashed into the Pentagon. Because of my position as a ground equipment mechanic, I had access to the flightline operations that day. My friends were Crew Cheifs and Weapons Loaders, among other professions on the flightline that day. One of my [unusual] duties that day was to drive a Loader (personal friend) along with a rack of live missiles (AIM-9's and AIM-120's) across the active runway to the Alert Squadron and drop them off. I was towing equipment to the flightline, so when it was time to go back and pick up the Loader (and our missile trailer) I was unable to do so, but another member of my Flight (a good friend, and later roommate) did go. According to my roommate (and I later confirmed with the Loader) the Loader was completely silent most of the trip back to our side of the base, after they crossed the active, he spoke. "They shot one down." JJ replied "WHAT?" Loader:"One of those 16's came back with one less missile than it left with" That was all. As they pulled back in to the squadron area, The loader was whisked away by his commanders for debriefing. I didn't see him for a few days, but when I did, he said he couldn't talk about it, but he confirmed that what my roommate had told me was true.
The US Air Force shot down Flight 93. I haven't told this to many people. I told my parents and other family members shortly after I left the military. They didn't believe it. I figured no one else would either. I kept my mouth shut. Everyone was dedicated to the president and the country (not really) And anything that went against the Official, media delivered story was viewed as unpatriotic. I knew that I loved this country, so I kept my mouth shut. I just can't do that anymore. I know that I don't have any documents to prove it, and I have no way of knowing where the others involved are now days, so I can't prove anything. All I have is my word. and with God as my witness that is the truth."
45 Comments, some with first-hand confirmation
Testimony of Gen. Richard B. Myers, chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff at Pentagon
911 Lawsuit Is A Booby Trap On September 11, 2001, Gen. Richard B. Myers (a former NORAD commander) was Acting Chairman of JCS. He had been selected to replace Gen. Hugh Shelton as Chairman of JCS, and was scheduled to appear before the Senate Armed Services Committee for his confirmation hearings on September 13. Remember, the Chairman of JCS is the President's principal military advisor, and we've just had one of the worst military disasters in our history, right under the watchful eye of NORAD.
The Washington Post reported Myers' appearance in its September 14 article, "Fighter Response After Attacks Questioned." According to the Post, Myers "was deeply involved in the military's [9-11] response this week from the outset …" One month later, during an interview with the Armed Forces Radio and Television Service (AFRTS), Myers confirmed he was in the loop on 911. So while Myers was not officially on the NORAD command chain on 9-11, he was acting as a NORAD confidante and consultant. That makes him a first-hand witness.
The Chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee was Sen. Carl Levin (D-Mich). Now let's hear what Myers told Levin and the other senators when asked if the military shot down Flight 93:
LEVIN: Was the Defense Department contacted by the FAA or the FBI or any other agency after the first two hijacked aircraft crashed into the World Trade Center, prior to the time that the Pentagon was hit?
MYERS: Sir, I don't know the answer to that question. I can get that for you, for the record.
LEVIN: Thank you. Did the Defense Department take — or was the Defense Department asked to take action against any specific aircraft?
MYERS: Sir, we were …
LEVIN: And did you take action against — for instance, there has been statements that the aircraft that crashed in Pennsylvania was shot down. Those stories continue to exist. MYERS: Mr. Chairman, the armed forces did not shoot down any aircraft. When it became clear what the threat was, we did scramble fighter aircraft, AWACS, radar aircraft and tanker aircraft to begin to establish orbits in case other aircraft showed up in the FAA system that were hijacked. But we never actually had to use force.
LEVIN: Was that order that you just described given before or after the Pentagon was struck? Do you know?
MYERS: That order, to the best of my knowledge, was after the Pentagon was struck.
(Senate Armed Services Committee Transcript) (12)
Myers says:
He does not know if the FAA contacted DoD or any other agency prior to the Pentagon being hit, and
After it became clear what the threat was, fighter jets were scrambled, and that happened after the Pentagon was hit.
According to CNN, the Pentagon was struck at 9:38 a.m. It took NORAD's press office five days after Myers September 13 testimony to cobble together its official version of events. That press release contradicts Myers' September 13 statements. (9)
Here is a summary of the conflicting accounts:
Myers, September 13, 2001: NORAD sent interceptors up AFTER 9:38 a.m.
NORAD, September 18, 2001: NORAD sent interceptors up AT 8:46 a.m.
— Myers' and NORAD's statements differ by (at least) 52 minutes.
During his October 17, 2001 Armed Forces Radio and Television Service (AFRTS) interview, Myers spoke of what he did after learning the Pentagon was hit:
AFRTS: If we could go back to September 11th, the day that everyone will remember like December 7, 1941, what do you remember about that day?
Myers: I remember it was like watching a bad movie. I was on Capitol Hill. I was about ready to meet with Senator Cleland. I was meeting with him in preparation for my hearing, my confirmation hearing to be the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. And I remember before we walked in there was a TV that was playing and somebody has said, "An airplane has hit one of the World Trade Center towers." They thought it was an airplane, and they thought it was a small airplane or something like that. So we walked in and we did the office call with Senator Cleland.
Sometime during that office call the second tower was hit. Nobody informed us of that. But when we came out, that was obvious. Then right at that time somebody said the Pentagon has been hit.
I immediately, somebody handed me a cell phone, and it was General Eberhart out at NORAD in Colorado Springs talking about what was happening and the actions he was going to take.
(AFRTS NewsCenter) (14)
There it is again: After the Pentagon hit (9:38 a.m.), Eberhart was still talking about "the actions he was going to take."
When were the NORAD jets launched, and why is there at least a 52-minute discrepancy between Myers' and NORAD statements? Someone's lying. Who?

Did NORAD Send The "Suicide" Jets? Part 2: The Dumb Blondes
March 13, 2002 -- Tom Clancy wrote two bestselling thrillers about a pilot deliberately flying a fuel-laden jet into the Capitol building and killing the President and top leadership (Debt of Honor , 1994; Executive Orders, 1996).
What does Clancy say about the government's 9-11 story?
"Four planes? That many people willing to die for the same cause at the same time? If any writer had turned in a story like this, the publisher would have just handed it back and said, 'No way. Not believable.'" You will find the quote in the attached article, in which one of Clancy's big admirers, four-star general Carl Stiner, describes Clancy as a Pentagon "insider." Stiner says Clancy is granted an amazing level of access in the military because, "We trust him. We know he gets it right." It's a mutual admiration society: Clancy describes Stiner as low-key: "He's a real old fashioned Southern gentleman---who kills people."
NOTE: During Congressional testimony about Gulf War Syndrome after Iraq War #1, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, General Colin Powell was never sworn in to tell the truth. 1-million Iraqis were genocided in Iraq War #1. After 9/11/2001, again without being sworn to tell the truth, Colin Powell testified to United Nations corporation that Iraq had "weapons of mass destruction", in order to "justify" the start of Iraq War #2. After genociding an additional 1.5-million Iraqi civilians, no WMDs were found.
Three Years After Terror Attacks, Public Still Doubts ‘Official’ Story
By Christopher Bollyn SOMERSET COUNTY, Pennsylvania—Three years after the events of 9-11, half of the residents of New York City believe U.S. leaders had foreknowledge and “consciously failed” to act to prevent the disasters, while two in three want a new investigation of the “still-unanswered questions.”
In the first survey of public opinion about allegations of U.S. government complicity and whitewashing of the events of 9-11, a Zogby International poll found that fewer than two in five New Yorkers believe the official 9-11 commission “answered all of the important questions about what actually happened on Sept. 11.”
One in two New York City residents say that senior government officials “knew in advance that attacks were planned on or around Sept. 11, 2001, and that they consciously failed to act,” according to the poll of Aug. 24-26, 2004.
Sixty-six percent called for another full investigation, by Congress or Elliot Spitzer (left), New York’s attorney general, to resolve the “unanswered questions.”
“I think these numbers show that most New Yorkers are now fed up with the silence, and that politicians trying to exploit 9-11 do so at their peril,” said W. David Kubiak, executive director of 911truth.org, one of the groups that commissioned the poll. “The 9-11 case is not closed, and New York’s questions are not going away.”
FLIGHT 93
American Free Press visited Somerset County to look into some of the questions surrounding United Airlines Flight 93, which allegedly turned over and crashed in a refilled strip mine between Lambertsville and Shanksville, Pa., taking 44 lives with it.
Many local residents believe the plane was shot down, which they say would explain why parts of the plane and its contents were found strewn over a large area.
One question, “is what happened to the physical wreckage of the plane?”
“There was no plane,” Ernie Stull, mayor of Shanksville, told German television in March 2003:
“My sister and a good friend of mine were the first ones there,” Stull said. “They were standing on a street corner in Shanksville talking. Their car was nearby, so they were the first here—and the fire department came. Everyone was puzzled, because the call had been that a plane had crashed. But there was no plane.”
“They had been sent here because of a crash, but there was no plane?” the reporter asked.
“No. Nothing. Only this hole.”
When AFP asked Stull about his comments, he disagreed about when he had gone to the crash site. “A day or two later,” Stull said, was about when he went to the site. But he reiterated the fact that they saw little evidence of a plane crash.
Nena Lensbouer, who had prepared lunch for the workers at the scrap yard overlooking the crash site, was the first person to go up to the smoking crater.
Lensbouer told AFP that the hole was five to six feet deep and smaller than the 24-foot trailer in her front yard. She described hearing “an explosion, like an atomic bomb”—not a crash.
Lensbouer called 911 and stayed on the line as she ran across the reclaimed land of the former strip mine to within 15 feet of the smoking crater.
Lensbouer told AFP that she did not see any evidence of a plane then or at any time during the excavation at the site, an effort that reportedly recovered 95 percent of the plane and 10 percent of the human remains.
While specific details vary, the explanation for the disappearance of the plane is that the reclaimed land acted like liquid and absorbed the aircraft, which is said to have impacted at between 450 and 600 miles per hour.
This explanation is also used to explain why there was only a brief explosion with one short-lived smoke cloud, not unlike a bomb blast.
“I never saw that smoke,” Paula Long, an eyewitness, told AFP. Long ran “immediately” after hearing the crash but did not see the cloud of smoke caught in the now-famous photograph by Valencia McClatchey, she said.
“It [the ground] liquefied,” Bob Leverknight, an active member of the Air National Guard and correspondent with Somerset’s Daily American, told AFP regarding how the wreck and much of the fuel disappeared. One of the massive engines, Leverknight said, however, bounced off the ground and was found in the woods.
Jim Svonavec, whose company worked at the site and provided excavation equipment, told AFP that the recovery of the engine “at least 1,800 feet into the woods,” was done solely by FBI agents using his equipment.
More On The F-16 Happy
Hooligans And Flt 93 By E. Gothenberg Dear Mr. Rense,
Regarding the article you posted: Pilot Who
Shot Down Flt 93 With Sidewinders Identified?
There is no way to verify that Rick Gibney of The Happy Hooligans
really shot Flt 93, but, after reading the congressional Records from Sep
19 2001, one may conclude that one of The Happy Hooligans pilots did shoot
down Flt 93: S9497 PDF -- S9498 PDF -- S9497 S9498 HTML THE HAPPY HOOLIGANS
Mr. DORGAN. Mr. President, I want
to comment for a moment about some
fighter pilots who are flying air missions
over our nation’s capital.
On Tuesday of last week, following
the attack on the World Trade Center
and shortly before the Pentagon was
hit, a detachment of fighters who were
on alert at Langley Air Force Base in
Virginia were ordered airborne to protect
the nation’s capital. It happens
that the detachment of fighters is from
North Dakota.
The 119th Tactical Fighter Wing of
the North Dakota Air National Guard
flies F–16s. They are called the Happy
Hooligans. The Happy Hooligans are
folks who farm; they run drug stores;
they teach school. They do a lot of
things in their community, but they
also are members of the National
Guard who maintain and fly F–16s.
More than that, the Happy Hooligans,
the National Air Guard detachment in
Fargo, ND, are some of the best fighter
pilots in the world. In fact, the Happy
Hooligans have won the William Tell
Award on several occasions.
The William Tell Award is an award
that is given to the fighter units that
are the most proficient combat fighter
pilots in the world.
So this National Guard unit from
Fargo, ND, has taken their airplanes to
the William Tell contest, and they
have flown against the world’s top
combat pilots, and they have brought
the William Tell Award home to Fargo,
ND, as proof that they are the best
fighter pilots in the world.
For some time, the Happy Hooligans
have kept a permanent detachment
with four F–16s, pilots, and crews on
alert at Langley Air Force Base to provide
air defense of the United States.
Last Tuesday morning, the attack on
the World Trade Center in New York
precipitated an order for those fighters
who were on alert to take to the skies.
And those F–16s took to the air, but regrettably
they were not yet over Washington’s
airspace when the airplane hit
the Pentagon. They were still some
minutes away.
But they then flew, as I understand
it, 7 hours that day over the skies of
Washington, DC, performing combat
air patrol and protecting our nation’s
capital. And these are, as I said, men
and women who belong to the National
Guard but who have been awarded the
distinction of being the best fighter pilots
in the world.
I was enormously proud of them. I
called their commander at Langley. I
told them how proud I was to have the
Happy Hooligans—a wonderful contingent
of civilian soldiers; men and
women who belong to the National
Guard—flying those F–16s, providing
air cover during a time of national
emergency.
So, for the record, I want to say that
all Americans, of course, are proud of
our men and women in uniform. We
grieve with them for the tragedy visited
upon them when the airplane was
flown into the Pentagon, just as we do
for the thousands of people who have
lost their lives at the World Trade Center.
And as there are brave men and
women across the country who have
stepped forward to say, let it be me—
the firemen and the firefighters and police
men and women who were climbing
the stairs of the World Trade Center to
try to rescue people, risking their lives
to help others, just as there are so
many heroes around this country during
a time of need—so, too, were the
Happy Hooligans in their cockpit of the
F–16s, flying combat air patrols over
our Nation’s Capital.
Let me say to the Happy Hooligans: I
salute you. I am proud of your work.
And this country owes you a great debt
of gratitude.
Mr. President, I yield the floor.
Mr. ALLEN. Mr. President, I say to
my friend and colleague from North
Dakota, in relation to his eloquent remarks
about the Happy Hooligans, we
are glad the Happy Hooligans are on
our side. I knew that this training was
going on. These Air Guardsmen—and
possibly women as well—were very important
in scrambling to protect our
Nation’s Capital. I know of one of those
pilots actually who is from Virginia.
I am not going to get into the details
because it is important for national security
not to reveal what they were
doing, but they were very much in
harm’s way. I will not get into any
more detail other than to say, these pilots—
the Happy Hooligans, and any
others who were involved in that
scrambled mission to protect our Nation’s
Capital, and the region here in
the DC area—really were willing to
give their lives in a generally
undefended position.
So I am glad the Senator saluted the
Happy Hooligans. I salute the Happy
Hooligans and all those Air Guard pilots
who scrambled to our Nation’s defense,
with complete risk to their lives,
possibly having to give their lives to
protect others.
They will be called upon again, undoubtedly,
in service to our interests,
our freedom, and our allies. We do salute
them and their families and their
employers, whether they may be in
North Dakota, Virginia, Minnesota,
Wisconsin, or anywhere else in this
country because they are patriots. We
have all seen the patriotism that defines
our country.
I found it amazing that the safety and security of the United States on
911 was at the hands of "amateur" pilots who fly just one weekend per month
as a hobby. This make it very easy for the NWO to use them, if they wish,
for any unethical purposes as these innocent pilots are 'out of the loop'
and will never comprehend the total picture.
I therefor searched Google to find additional information regarding The
Happy Hooligans. I attach it below.
I hope it can help.
Regards, THE HAPPY HOOLIGANS

current, qualified F-16 Pilots to work one weekend per month."
4. The Happy Hooligans did participate in the 911 events: THE HAPPY HOOLIGANS "Mr. CONRAD. Madam President, when the Pentagon was attacked and
F-16s were scrambled from Langley Air Force Base, those fighter planes
were the 119th Fighter Wing of the North Dakota National Guard. I didn't
know that myself when I saw those planes flying. I can tell you, they
made an awful lot of us feel much more secure when we saw F-16 fighter
planes in the air protecting Washington, DC. So imagine my surprise and
my pride when I learned that those were North Dakota National Guard
fighter planes."
"This is the group we affectionately call in North Dakota the Happy
Hooligans."
"The Happy Hooligans are America's best. The Happy Hooligans have
been called the best fighter unit on the planet Earth. They have been
called that because the Happy Hooligans have been recognized in
competition after competition as America's best. Not only have they won
the competitions--the William Tell award, for example--as the best
active fighting unit in the United States, but they have not only been
in competition with other National Guard units but the regular Air
Force. The Happy Hooligans come out No. 1."
"So, not only are we incredibly proud in North Dakota that a key part
of this Nation's defense at this time of tragedy and attack was from
North Dakota but that we sent our very best and that our very best are
America's very best." 5. The Happy Hooligans history:
The 119th Fighter Wing, North Dakota Air National Guard (NDANG), is
headquartered at Fargo, N.D. The Wing is flying F-16 Fighting Falcons
and has 1,103 military positions. The Wing includes an alert detachment
at Langley Air Force Base, Virginia.
119th FW Mission
Based in Fargo, the 119th Fighter Wing provides air defense for a
large portion of the eastern United States from its alert detachment at
Langley Air Force Base, Va. The 119th is transitioning to become a
multi-role fighter aircraft wing with both air-to-air and air-to-ground
combat strike missions. The wing has 1,038 men and women assigned,
two-thirds of whom are traditional Guard members who drill one weekend
each month, plus an annual training tour annually.
119th FW History
The 119th Fighter Wing, also known as the "Happy Hooligans," began
operations with the F-51D in 1947. On April 1, 1951, the Hooligans were
mobilized for federal service and ordered to active duty during the
Korean conflict.
Happy Hooligan pilots flew the F-51D until 1954, the F-94 A/C from
1954-60, the F-89D/J from 1960-66, the F-102A from 1966-69 and the
F-101B from 1969-77.
In 1977, the Hooligans began flying the F-4D Phantom, accumulating
more than 51,000 hours from 1977 to 1990 without a Class A mishap. Since
converting to the F-16A in April 1990, the Hooligans have flown an
additional 30,000 accident-free flight hours.
The unit has amassed a nearly insurmountable record. Most
recently...the Hooligans earned first place at the October 1994 William
Tell competition, a worldwide weapons meet which tests pilots and ground
crews from the U.S. Air Force's top units in realistic, air-to-air
combat situations. This was the Hooligans third William Tell victory,
winning in 1970, 1972, and 1994, in addition to placing first among F-4
William Tell units in 1986.
In 1994 the NDANG won the prestigious Hughes Trophy which recognizes
the most outstanding air-to-air unit in the U.S. Air Force. The only Air
National Guard unit to win the award twice, the Hooligans are also the
only F-16 unit to ever win the Hughes Trophy.
The 119th FW has earned seven Air Force Outstanding Unit Awards. This
includes four consecutive periods covering April 1990 through July 1995.

PIRATE NEWS WEBMASTER NOTE Before and during Gulf War #1, myself and my wife co-wrote 1,000 pages of
Affidavits of Criminal Complaint against her entire chain of
command in the US Air Force at RAF Upper Heyford, USAF Europe, and
the Pentagon. All her commanders were fired, up to and
including General Mike Dugan, the 4-star general Chief of Staff of
the Air Force who was leading the "successful" air war on Iraq
during Desert Storm. The individual who fired the 4-star general,
Secretary of Defense "Tricky Dick" Cheney, then offered my wife a
job working directly for him at the Pentagon. Coincidence? She
turned him down to retire from the USAF. Was she a "slave" - or
NOT?
Several years after her retirement, she signed an enlistment
contract with the Tennessee Army National Guard. However, she
later changed her mind, and wanted out of that voluntary contract.
All she had to do was write a one-page letter to demand
termination of that military contract, and she was immediately
released from her military "commitment".
TO: Mr. Jernikan, CW3, HQ, ANG Starc Personnel This new "amendment" immediately cancelled her 4-year contract
with the "All-Volunteer" military. People "believe" military
contracts are the ultimate "slave" contract, and are impossible to
"break". We proved that myth wrong on many occassions. We have
also proven this true for ALL contracts, including "Driver
License" contracts and "Traffic Citation" contracts, as required
to create an American Autobahn.
On June 18, 2004, that same ANG unit was deployed to Gulf War
#2, after recalling ALL part-time soldiers to "active duty",
including those who had long-since retired to "inactive-reserve"
status. My wife was NOT one of those ordered to kill and be killed
in Iraq. Such is the power of knowing how to "Just Say 'NO'" to
voluntary contracts. Another family member shipped out on that
same deployment. He was a former drill instructor and recruiter.
His wife wanted him to intentionally shoot himself with a gun so
he would not have to go on that two-year Death March. She was not
kidding... 6. After reading Senator Kent Conrad of North Dakota comments regarding
911 and The Happy Hooligans, one may conclude that he knows that one of
these Hooligans actually shot down Flt 93: TERRORIST ATTACKS AGAINST THE UNITED STATES
(Senate - September 12, 2001) Mr. CONRAD. Mr. President, I rise today not as a Democrat or as a
Republican, but as an American. The vicious, premeditated terrorist
attack on our country cannot stand. We are joined in common purpose to
defend our Nation and to strike back against those who have committed
these crimes against humanity. Operating under the cloak of secrecy,
they destroyed the lives of thousands of men, women, and children who
were completely innocent.
Those innocents were not combatants in any cause. They were merely
traveling to rejoin their families, or going to work, or heading for a
holiday. They were harming no one. But terrorists bent on destruction
transformed airliners into flying bombs and attacked them, attacked us,
and attacked America.
Let the word go out that we will not be deterred, we will not be
defeated, we will not be denied basic justice. These evil perpetrators
of mindless violence will be pursued and found, and they will be held to
account.
Let these adversaries understand that they have aroused the awful
wrath of a mighty nation. We are united, we are determined, we are
committed, and we will prevail. God bless America.

F-16 Pilot
CLAIM: In February 2004, retired Army Col. Donn de Grand-Pre said on "The Alex Jones Show," a radio talk show broadcast on 42 stations: "It [Flight 93] was taken out by the North Dakota Air Guard. I know the pilot who fired those two missiles to take down 93." LetsRoll911.org, citing de Grand-Pre, identifies the pilot: "Major Rick Gibney fired two Sidewinder missiles at the aircraft and destroyed it in midflight at precisely 0958."
FACT: Saying he was reluctant to fuel debate by responding to unsubstantiated charges, Gibney (a lieutenant colonel, not a major) declined to comment. According to Air National Guard spokesman Master Sgt. David Somdahl, Gibney flew an F-16 that morning--but nowhere near Shanksville. He took off from Fargo, N.D., and flew to Bozeman, Mont., to pick up Ed Jacoby Jr., the director of the New York State Emergency Management Office. Gibney then flew Jacoby from Montana to Albany, N.Y., so Jacoby could coordinate 17,000 rescue workers engaged in the state's response to 9/11. Jacoby confirms the day's events. "I was in Big Sky for an emergency managers meeting. Someone called to say an F-16 was landing in Bozeman. From there we flew to Albany." Jacoby is outraged by the claim that Gibney shot down Flight 93. "I summarily dismiss that because Lt. Col. Gibney was with me at that time. It disgusts me to see this because the public is being misled. More than anything else it disgusts me because it brings up fears. It brings up hopes--it brings up all sorts of feelings, not only to the victims' families but to all the individuals throughout the country, and the world for that matter. I get angry at the misinformation out there."

Hundreds of Jewish Israeli Mossad terrorists were arrested in USA before, during and after 9/11/2001. PM forgot to mention that Israel was ordered by Pentagon to sink USS Liberty and blame Egypt, genociding dozens of US sailors. PM forgot to mention there were no hijackers on any of the airline passenger lists on 9/11, or that no video showed any hijackers boarding any of the airliners. PM forgot to mention Pentagon's signed confession of sabotage, mass murder, terrorism and treason in declassified Operation Northwoods, that ordered robot drones packed with bombs, fake plane crashes, and fake passenger lists. PM is for brain-dead 15-year-old boys day-dreaming about trading in their bike for their first car, wondering if they will ever get laid by a girl. BTW, why was the EMA director for NY state in North Dakota, when NY City was "coincidentally" hosting EMA drills with CIA to "coincidentally" hijack an airliner and "coincidentally" crash it into the WTC on 9/11/2001? Why would the governor and senators from ND make so many public awards to Gibney if he perpetrated Fraud, Waste and Abuse of taxpayer funds, by playing taxidriver for an incompetent EMA employee playing hookie while the city burned and 1,000s of people were murdered due to USAF incompetence?
The Hollywood Fantasy of Flight 93
The Hidden Role of NASA and the FBI in Cleveland
Christopher Bollyn The Hollywood version of what happened to United Flight 93 has "set the record straight," boasts the senior counsel for the 9-11 Commission, while news reports and evidence tell a very different story.
The recently released Hollywood film titled United 93 by Universal Pictures is touted by John J. Farmer as being "closer to the truth than every account the government put out before the 9-11 Commission's investigation." Farmer was an attorney general of New Jersey and served as senior counsel for the 9-11 Commission.
"The facts of Sept. 11 are as simple as they are grim," Farmer wrote. "The passengers and crew aboard United Airlines Flight 93 really were alone. They were all that stood between the hijackers and the Capitol (or possibly the White House)," he wrote. "That is the core reality of that morning and United 93 gets it right."
But the facts about 9-11 are anything but simple and the egregious omissions and distortions of the politically appointed 9-11 Commission, which Farmer worked with, have only further complicated the story, as author David Ray Griffin points out in his analysis of the commission's seriously flawed report.
News reports and eyewitness testimony depict a very different fate having befallen United Flight 93 than either of those portrayed in the Hollywood film fabrication or the 9-11 Commission report.
On the morning of 9-11, for example, the Associated Press reported that United 93 made an emergency landing at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport. According to the official version, however, Flight 93 crashed into a reclaimed mine near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, shortly after 10 a.m.
The AP story clearly reported that United had identified the plane that landed at Cleveland as Flight 93. Cleveland's Mayor Michael R. White reportedly said the plane had landed due to suspicion that it had a bomb aboard.
The most obvious problem with the official version that Flight 93 crashed at the site near Shanksville is that the photographs and eyewitness accounts describe a crater too small for a such a large plane to have crashed into. The crater at the reclaimed mine was less than 20 feet across and about 6 feet deep. Yet the official version claims that into this crater a Boeing 757 airliner supposedly buried itself, the passengers, the cargo, and thousands of gallons of jet fuel.
Nena Lensbouer, who had prepared lunch for the workers at the scrap yard overlooking the crash site, said she was the first person to reach the crater. Lensbouer said that the crater was five to six feet deep and smaller than the 24-foot trailer in her front yard. She described the sound as "an explosion, like an atomic bomb" – not a crash.
Somerset County Coroner Wallace Miller, who was one of the first people to arrive at the crash site, said it looked as if someone took a scrap truck, dug a 10-foot ditch and dumped trash into it. Miller said there was nothing visible of human remains and that it was as if the plane had "stopped and let the passengers off before it crashed." He said that the most eerie thing about the site was that he hadn't seen a "single drop of blood."
Miller said he was stunned at how small the crater was. "I stopped being coroner after about 20 minutes," Miller said, "because there were no bodies there."
Asked how Flight 93 disappeared into the crater without leaving a trace, Bob Leverknight, an active member of the Air National Guard and correspondent with Somerset's Daily American, told AFP at the newspaper's office, "It [the ground] liquefied." However, one of the massive engines, Leverknight said, inexplicably bounced off the ground and was found at a considerable distance in the woods.
A second plane, identified as Delta 1989, was also reported to have landed at the Cleveland airport due to fears of sabotage. At a news conference, Mayor White identified the plane as a Boeing 767 flying from Boston to Los Angeles. It may be more than coincidence that both of the flights that allegedly struck the World Trade Center also originated at Boston's Logan Airport.
The Akron Beacon Journal reported that the mayor had stated that 200 passengers had been released from the plane at 11:15 a.m. The airport in Cleveland had been evacuated at 10 a.m. "Airline passengers and crew members were walking onto the highway to find their rides as no cars were allowed into the passenger drop off and pick up areas," the Journal reported.
The following day, Sept. 12, the Journal reported that an eyewitness had watched the Delta plane sitting near the I-X Center, which is a facility at the southeast edge of the airfield. It also reported that 78 passengers "were taken to NASA Glenn Research Center to be interviewed by FBI agents." The NASA facility is at the extreme northwest end of the airfield.
American Free Press called the former mayor at his 45-acre alpaca ranch, Seven Pines Alpacas in Newcomerstown, Ohio, to inquire about the events at the Cleveland airport on 9-11. White, however, was unwilling to discuss anything and cut the conversation short saying, "I'm out of the interview business."
On August 17, 2005, White's business associate and close friend, Nate Gray, was convicted of 36 criminal counts relating to bribery of public officials in four cities. Two days after the Gray conviction, Brent Larkin, in an editorial in the Cleveland Plain Dealer, wrote: "Now we know that, at the very least, White presided over a government that will forever be remembered as one of the most corrupt in the city's history."
The central figure in the corruption of the White administration appears to be Samuel H. Miller, co-chairman of the board of directors and treasurer of Forest City Enterprises, Inc., a family-run company with extensive real estate holdings which it owns or manages. The Ratner family, which Miller married into, controls Forest City Enterprises.
Ricardo Teamor, one of the co-defendants in the racketeering and extortion scheme with Nate Gray, told the FBI that Mayor White, Gray, and Miller had regular business dinners at the Ritz Carlton hotel for years. According to Teamor, Gray said that Miller controlled White and told the mayor what to do.
Miller was White's biggest financial backer when, as a little-known state senator, White ran for mayor in 1989.
Miller is also a national leader in Zionist and Jewish causes. He is, for example, the national chairman of the United Jewish Appeal (UJA), a past chairman of the Cleveland Jewish Welfare Fund and Israel Bonds, and a member of the board of trustees of the Jewish National Fund.
Miller is also the father of Aaron David Miller, who served for two decades at the Department of State as senior adviser to six Secretaries of State, where he was involved in formulating U.S. policy on the Middle East and the Arab-Israel peace process. Miller served as the Deputy Special Middle East Coordinator for Arab-Israeli negotiations and Senior Member of the State Department's Policy Planning Staff.
The UJA is the largest Zionist organization dedicated to raising money and support for Israel. Other individuals closely involved in 9-11, such as Larry Silverstein and Lewis Eisenberg have also held leadership positions in the UJA.
Eisenberg, the former chairman of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, personally arranged the privatization of the World Trade Center property in 2001 and supervised the negotiations that delivered the 99-year lease to Silverstein only six weeks before the attack. Eisenberg was later appointed finance chairman of the Republican National Committee.
AFP called Miller to ask what he knew about the events of 9-11 at the Cleveland airport. "Not a thing about it," Miller said. Asked about his relationship with Mayor White, Miller responded, "What business is that of yours?"
One of the noteworthy news events at the Cleveland airport is that 78 passengers were taken to the NASA Glenn Research Center, which had been evacuated, where they were interviewed by FBI agents. Why were the passengers taken to the NASA facility and why were FBI agents waiting for them there?
The NASA administrator at the time was Daniel Saul Goldin, the longest-serving administrator in NASA history, who is also a Zionist with close ties to Israel. Goldin's career began at the same NASA facility at Cleveland's airport.
Three weeks before 9-11, the Israeli cabinet discussed Goldin's recent visit to Israel during which he met with senior Israeli officials to discuss "the special relationship and cooperation between Israel and the United States in the field of space research." During his visit, Goldin promised NASA cooperation in fields that will promote Israeli industries and educational projects.
Goldin resigned from NASA two months after 9-11.
AFP called the NASA Glenn Research Center to ask about the passengers that were taken to the facility on 9-11. "No one was brought here," said a puzzled NASA spokesperson, who was among those evacuated on 9-11.
Mary Ethridge, a journalist with the Akron Beacon Journal, however, stood by the paper's report that the passengers had been interviewed by the FBI in the evacuated NASA facility.
The facts indicate that a leading Zionist controlled the corrupt mayor of Cleveland, who in turn controlled the airport where suspicious and secretive events occurred on 9-11 in an evacuated NASA facility. Furthermore, NASA was under the control of a Zionist, as was the FBI, which was under the control of Assistant Attorney General Michael Chertoff. Chertoff, as AFP discovered, is an Israeli national whose mother, Livia Eisen, was one of the first agents in Israel's military intelligence agency, the Mossad.
As with the dubious Apollo moon landings, the Zionist-controlled media and Hollywood play a key role in creating a fantasy version about 9-11 while suppressing the evidence that contradicts the illusion.

US journalist forced to flee US and seek aylum - Today on the Dale Williams Radio Show, journalist, Christopher Bollyn gave his first interview since being forced into hiding. Mr. Bollyn detailed his struggle after having been beat up and arrested by Homeland Security agents at his home in front of his wife and child. During the attack by police and government agents, Mr Bollyn's elbow was shattered. He was also tazered while agents held him to the ground, putting the full weight of their bodies on his head. Mr. Bollyn's only crime was being an investigative journalist who questioned the official story behind 9/11 and the links to the cabal who may have carried out the attacks.

Journalist Dialed 911 for Trial by Torture - I attended the trial. It was simply a farce - a Salem Witch trial, where someone with alternative views was crucified. It is clearly an illegal penalty on the exercise of constitutional rights - freedom of speech. The judge allowed the prosecution to make statements that were inconsistent with the evidence and highly inflammatory slander and defamation of Mr. Bollyn's character. The prosecutor so tainted the trial that a fair hearing was impossible. Mr. Bollyn stated he is an investigative reporter who investigates unsolved crimes. He has written about depleted uranium, the 911 tragedy, and many other controversial issues of the day. I find it astonishing that the police and prosecutors twisted his career, and his right to question the actions of our government, into a theory that he purposely causes incidents to occur so that he can write about them. I find it more astonishing that the judge allowed this baseless, anti free-speech and anti free-press argument. It's unbelievable that the jury bought it. The police chief admitted that their police cars, including the undercover cars are equipped with video cameras, but all 7 videotapes were re-cycled and no one ever looked at them to see if there was any evidence. Mr. Bollyn ran for Mayor in the past (2001) so there is motive to discredit him in the community. The police state death squad confessed they assaulted Mr Bollyn with fists, knees, boots breaking his arm, plus TAZER electroshocks while handcuffed and brandished guns, and was then assaulted while handcuffed inside the police car while braking suddenly without a seat belt with the in-car video turned off, yet it was Christopher Bollyn who was convicted of assault.

Flight 93 'was shot down' claims book by ROWLAND MORGAN The heart-thumping moment came when when passengers on board one of the hijacked 9/11 jets fought back against the ruthless fanatics hellbent on crashing the plane into the heart of America.
Jumping out of their seats to a rallying cry of "Let's roll!", they charged towards the front of the Boeing 757 and began smashing down the cockpit door to reach the hijackers at the controls.
Amid the desperate commotion, the plane rolled violently from right to left and pitched up and down as the rogue pilots tried to throw the passengers beyond the door off balance. As the struggle continued, the cockpit voice recorder captured the hijackers urgently discussing whether to ditch the plane. 'Is that it? Shall we finish it off?' asked one of the fanatics.
'No, not yet. When they all come, we finish it off,' was the reply. Minutes later, at10.03am, with the same voices shouting in Arabic, 'Allah is the greatest, Allah is the greatest,' the plane headed down, banked hard right and rolled on to its back. It smashed into an empty field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, at its top speed of 580mph and exploded into a massive fireball.
Evidence suggests a sinister twist
The flames set nearby woods on fire as the impact sprayed body parts and other debris into the trees and up into the sky, to float to earth as far as eight miles away.
This, then, is the legend of United Airways Flight 93, one that has been vigorously promoted in a stream of books and films, most recently in the £9.6 million Hollywood movie United 93. It is the story of how 33 innocent passengers and seven crew gave their lives to save countless others as their plane flew kamikaze-style towards the White House or the Capitol in Washington.
To a nation still reeling from the attacks on New York's World Trade Centre and the Pentagon that same September morning, these were men and women every bit as heroic as those who had fought at the Alamo.
Yet my own exhaustive investigations have led me to conclude that the story of Flight 93 is far from being the straightforward account of supreme courage that the authorities would have us believe.
Instead, the real story is mired in cynical manipulation and warmongering propaganda. I am convinced there is evidence to suggest a wholly sinister twist to the tale that already holds pride of place in American folklore. For I believe that Flight 93 may well have been deliberately shot down as a means of stopping it from reaching its ultimate target - even at the expense of the 40 blameless people on board. It is a suspicion that was held even by the FBI, but was swept aside as a shaken America clung on to the official version of selfless sacrifice and raw patriotism.
Today, with the approach of the fifth anniversary of 9/11, some will still say that such speculation only serves to lend comfort to terrorists and does a disservice to the dead.
Others, however, will feel there are too many disquieting circumstances and unanswered questions to simply ignore.
But let us examine the evidence ? so that you can come to your own conclusion. The massive impact caused the entire plane to disappear 30ft deep into the earth, telescoping down on itself and crushing everyone and everything inside the fuselage beyond recognition.
Why did the engines go missing?
However, the absence of any significant debris - including tailplane and wings - bewildered witnesses, relatives and, more importantly, some crash experts.
They found it hard to believe that an airliner up to 155ft long, with two engines each weighing more than six tons, could have penetrated the ground so completely as to utterly disappear. Had it, in reality, been blown to pieces in mid-air?
Certainly it is unclear how a single piece of fuselage the size of a dining room table could have been recovered from a marina in Indian Lake, a couple of miles away from the crash site ? unless it fell from the sky during an aerial break-up.
But a bigger mystery is why the engines went missing.
Considering their weight, they should have plunged deep into the earth along with the rest of the airliner.
Yet they weren't in the crater and only a one-ton segment of an engine was ever recovered, again more than a mile from the crash site. The FBI said, unconvincingly, that it had 'bounced' there.
The FBI also claimed metal fragments found up to eight miles away could have been carried there by the wind, even though the breeze was very light.
Witnesses said nothing was left at the crash site, yet the FBI belatedly claimed to have made two sensational discoveries ? a red bandana and a passport allegedly belonging to the hijackers.
Very conveniently, these turned up as prosecution evidence earlier this year at the trial of Zacarias Moussaoui, the socalled 20th hijacker and only terrorist to be convicted over the 9/11 atrocities. [Moussaoui never got a trial by jury on the facts, only the sentence, and recanted his guilty plea for being coerced under duress and torture. He was never charged nor convicted for involvement in the attacks of 9/11/2001.]
If flight 93 was shot down, there must have been a fighter jet in the skies to unleash a guided missile.
The U.S. government has admitted that two F-15s were flying above New York City before 9am on September 11 and three F-16s were patrolling over Washington by 9.40am. They could have reached Shanksville in minutes.
According to investigative writer David Ray Griffin, several witnesses saw two F-16s tailing Flight 93 minutes before it went down.
Twelve eyewitnesses state seeing another jet nearby.
They claim they saw an F-16 move closer in and fire what were probably two Sidewinder missiles, one of them catching at least one of the Boeing?s huge engines, after which the 'plane dropped like a stone'.
Someone else 'heard a loud bang' and saw the airliner plummet. A Vietnam War veteran said he 'heard a missile', a sound he knew well. It is debatable how seriously we should take these reports. But there are numerous and highly credible witness accounts of a mysterious white jet being seen after Flight 93 went down.
Jim Brant, owner of the Indian Lake marina where debris was found, said he heard the roar of jet engines overhead, then saw a fireball rise into the air. He looked up and noticed a white plane circling the wreckage. 'It reminded me of a fighter jet,' he said.
Another resident, Tom Spinelli, said: 'I saw the white plane. It was flying around all over the place like it was looking for something. I saw it before and after the crash.'
He said it had high tail wings and no markings on it. John Feegle, another witness, said: 'It didn?t look like a commercial plane. It had a real goofy tail on it, like a high tail. It circled around, and it was gone.'
Dennis Decker and his friend Rick Chaney were also close to the impact site. 'As soon as we looked up we saw a mid-sized jet flying low and fast,' said Decker.
'It appeared to make a loop or part of a circle, and then it turned fast and headed out.' Decker and Chaney described the jet as white with no markings. Decker added: 'It was a jet plane, and it had to be flying real close when that 757 went down. If I was the FBI, I?d find out who was driving that plane.'
A total of 12 eyewitnesses are on record as having seen the white jet. One witness, Susan McElwain, complained that the FBI told her there was no plane and did not note down her account.
However, amid the growing furore over the sightings, the FBI was forced to offer an explanation, which again many found unconvincing.
It claimed the jet was a passing civilian Fairchild Falcon 20 that was asked to descend to 5,000ft some minutes after the crash to give co-ordinates for the site. The plane and pilot have never been produced or identified.
The military's role in 9/11 is a mystery.
One commentator pointed out: 'The reason why this seems so implausible is that, first, by 10.06am on September 11, all non-military aircraft in U.S. airspace had received orders more than half an hour earlier to land at the nearest airport.'
'Second, such was the density of emergency phone calls from people on the ground in the Shanksville area as to the location of the crash site, that aerial co-ordinates would have been completely unnecessary.'
'Third, with F-16s supposedly in the vicinity, it seems extraordinarily unlikely that, at a time when no one knew for sure whether there might be any more hijacked aircraft still in the sky, the military would ask a civilian aircraft that just happened to be in the area for help.'
The military?s role in 9/11 is shrouded in confusion, ambiguity and inconsistency.
A news report on September 20, 2001, said: 'America's defence establishment has disclosed that it ordered its fighter jets to intercept all the passenger aircraft hijacked in last week's attacks on New York and Washington.'
The report also stated that military intelligence was aware of the hijackings before any of the aircraft had hit their targets.
Three years later, however, the military said it hadn't heard about Flight 93 until after the plane had crashed - a line accepted by the official 9/11 Commission, which published its findings in July 2004.
The official inquiry said the Federal Aviation Authority - responsible for the security and safety of U.S. civilian aviation - had been incompetent in failing to alert the U.S. Air Force.
But the FAA had already acted quickly in ordering more than 4,000 aircraft to land at the nearest airstrip to avoid any more hijacks. And the military would have learned of Flight 93's hijack via teleconferences set up by the FAA, the White House and the U.S. Defence Department as events began to unfold on September 11. Richard Clarke, who ran the White House video conference, stated that at 9.27am, the FAA informed both Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and General Richard Myers, Chief of Defence Staff, of a number of 'potential hijacks' including 'United 93 over Pennsylvania'. Therefore, more than 25 minutes before Flight 93 went down, both Rumsfeld and Myers knew all about it. No wonder the military's claim to have learned about Flight 93 only after it crashed is dismissed by many as a bare-faced lie.
The FBI was in charge of the investigation.
In other air crashes, information from the flight data recorder and the cockpit voice recorder - the black box recorders - were dealt with in an open manner, with crash investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board discussing the progress of their inquiries with reporters. But in the case of Flight 93, the Transportation Safety Board was not in charge of the investigation - the FBI was.
The black box recorders were reportedly found buried 25ft deep inside the crater. But a threeminute discrepancy in the crash time led to suspicions of foul play.
Seismic records, consolidated from four seismology stations in the region, originally pegged the impact time at 10.06am. It was only later that the Pentagon and the 9/11 Commission decreed that the correct impact time to have been at 10.03am.
But Terry Wallace, who heads the Southern Arizona Seismic Observatory and is considered the leading expert on the seismology of man-made events, was puzzled.
He complained: 'The seismic signals are consistent with impact at 10.06am and five seconds plus or minus two seconds. I don?t know where the 10.03 time comes from.' So there were two crash times.
Sceptics note that a lot could happen in three minutes - minutes that could be removed from the end of a flight-deck recording to delete evidence of an attack by U.S. jets.
The FBI kept the contents of the voice recorder secret until it was forced by bereaved relatives to play the tape under heavy security at a hotel in April 2002.
The family members later reported they heard sounds of an on-board struggle beginning at 9.58am, with a final 'rushing sound' at 10.03am, when the tape fell silent. Could the 'rushing sound' have been made by the plane being holed? And what of the moment when the plane hit the ground?
'There is no sound of the impact,' said Kenneth Nacke, whose brother Lou had been on Flight 93. There is a further twist. In 2006, when the judge at the trial of Zacarias Moussaoui ordered a transcript of the cockpit voice recorder, it ended with the sound of the hijackers shouting praises to Allah.
Just where had those praises been in 2002 when the tape was first played to relatives? For many, their sudden appearance confirmed suspicions of tape tampering.
At first, the FBI was keen to show it was keeping an open mind over the fate of Flight 93.
Within days of the crash, Reuters reported from Shanksville: 'Federal investigators said they could not rule out the possibility that the United Airlines jetliner that crashed in rural western Pennsylvania during this week?s attacks on New York and the Pentagon was shot down.' 'We have not ruled out that,' FBI agent Bill Crowley told a news conference when asked about reports that a U.S. fighter jet may have fired on the hijacked Boeing 757. 'We haven?t ruled out anything yet.'
Why did Crowley later retract his statement - and on the same day as the U.S. Air Force issued its official denial of any involvement?
At the crux of the legend of Flight 93 are the phones calls passengers are said to have made to their loved ones after the hijackers took control.
These are said to have alerted the passengers to the fact that they were victims of no ordinary hijacking, but a co-ordinated mission by fanatics to strike at the heart of America in New York and Washington. At the same time, a number of passengers allegedly told relatives of their resolve to fight back. Interestingly, phone contact from passengers on the two hijacked planes that hit the Twin Towers and a third jet which crashed into the Pentagon that same morning was scarce to non-existent.
Yet officially there were 35 calls made among the 40 passengers and crew on Flight 93, with callers using either mobile phones or GTE Airfones fitted into the backs of the aircraft seats.
The use of mobile phones is suspect anyway because telecommunications experts say that - given the technology of 2001 - calls at an altitude of six miles could have only occurred by fluke at best. Just as baffling, the FBI insisted there were 13 mobile phone calls - of which there were no billing records - yet reduced this number to just two at the trial this year of Zacarias Moussaoui when the evidence risked being exposed to the harsh light of law.
Why had the FBI failed to put the record straight over the previous four-and-a-half years?
One answer is that it suited the heroism legend to keep silent as the Pentagon banged the drum for war in Iraq.
Mrs Beamer only learned of her husband's final call four days later.
The 9/11 Commission claimed that five of the calls described the intent of the passengers and crew to revolt against the hijackers. One caller, the Commission said, ended her message with the words: 'Everyone's running up to first class. I've got to go. Bye.' But all this begs the question: why did the hijackers allow such a free-for-all of phone calls as they attempted to terrify their hostages?
After all, the hijackers would have realised that experts would have been able to locate the lost aircraft if people were using their mobles.
The most intriguing of the calls is the one said to have been made by Flight 93?s most famous passenger Todd Beamer, whose 'Let's roll!' phrase became a byword for the victims? heroism and patriotism.
Beamer's call was said to have been taken by a telephone supervisor working for the Verizon Corporation, owners of GTE Airfones, the gadgets on the airplane seats.
At the time, Verizon had a contract worth £750million for installing a high-security telecoms package across U.S. government departments, including the Pentagon.
One of its supervisors, Lisa Jefferson, an evangelical Christian like Beamer himself, retains a vivid recollection of her 15-minute conversation with him.
After discovering that she shared her first name with Beamer's wife, they apparently talked about his two little boys and the new baby on the way, Beamer's fear that he might not make it home, and his faith.
Faced with the awful prospect of dying on board Flight 93, Beamer supposedly recited the Lord's Prayer and Psalm 23 with Mrs Jefferson. He also asked her to promise to call his wife. Mrs Jefferson received a Verizon Excellence Award from her bosses for her handling of the call. To some this may have seemed inappropriate.
She had not taken a recording of it, contrary to convention. She had not gone through the routine questions in her distress-call manual. She had not connected this agitated man to his wife waiting anxiously at home. Nor had she informed his wife subsequently of the call as promised.
Mrs Beamer only learned of her husband's final call four days later, when a representative of United Airlines got in touch.
She says the United Airlines representative told her: 'The FBI had been keeping the information private until they've had the opportunity to review the material. But now they've released it, I have a written summary of the call.'
But later Mrs Beamer learned that the FBI had not kept the call so secret after all. Her husband's boss at his computer company had already spun the story of Beamer the hero aboard Flight 93 before anyone else knew of his phone call.
As for Lisa Jefferson?s evidence, it was single-sourced, unsubstantiated hearsay of which there was no record. For spooks inside a sprawling empire of wires like Verizon, rigging up a phone call to Lisa Jefferson's headset would have been simple.
'Let's roll!' became the war on terror's recruitment slogan.
She had no idea what Beamer's voice sounded like, and she would never hear it again to judge whether he had actually been speaking to her. This year, Lisa Jefferson published a book entitled 'Called' - the story of seeing 'her life transformed, simply by answering Todd Beamer's call'.
The blurb added: 'Jefferson sends a stirring challenge to all of us whether it comes during quiet obscurity or international adversity, we must be prepared to answer God's call.'
Evangelical Christians throughout America rallied to that call. But one puzzle remains: Todd Beamer?s wife later said she had never before heard of his reciting the Lord's Prayer in pressure situations. Nor, she added, was Psalm 23 something he often recited.
Todd Beamer's 'Let's roll!' phrase became the war on terror's recruitment slogan.
President Bush had launched the legend in a speech on September 20, 2001 as he declared his unprecedented 'war on terror'. Beamer?s story of selfless patriotism, according to the President, was a 'defining moment' in American history. Alongside President Bush on this occasion was Todd Beamer's wife Lisa.
Nobody, of course, would begrudge Mrs Beamer her celebrity, given her tragic circumstances. But her presence undoubtedly helped President Bush's cause.
The President again invoked her evangelical Christian husband's courage in another speech a month later.
'We will no doubt face new challenges,' said the man widely regarded as having taken office fully intending to attack Iraq. 'But we have our marching orders. My fellow Americans - let's roll!'
Such a phrase couldn't fail to chime with the President's gung-ho admirers - nor with the 40 million evangelical Christians in the so-called 'red' [Communist] states where the Bush regime had its most fervent support.
Later U.S. Navy personnel would spell out the words 9/11 LET'S ROLL by forming themselves on the deck of a warship bound for Iraq.
Lisa Beamer, always a staunch ally of the White House and its war on terror, had herself photographed unveiling a 'Let's Roll' logo on the side of a U.S. Air Force F-16.
She even sought to have 'Let's Roll' trademarked and signed a six-figure book deal which, along with her seven-figure compensation cheque, made her a rich woman. And in August 2002, just in time for the first 9/11 anniversary, she published her memoir entitled - predictably - 'Let's Roll'!
The front cover showed the author with the Stars and Stripes and the publisher issued a staggering one million copies in hardback.
Secrecy is the first instinct of any war.
Truly, the Let's Roll slogan had become a call to arms - just at a time the White House needed it most.
Bush administration not admit its guilt? It could surely have argued that the poor souls lost in the airliner were a tragic but necessary sacrifice in order to prevent horror and destruction on a larger scale in at the Capitol Washington.
Air Force scrambles had been frequent enough in the past. One report said there had been 129 within the U.S. during 2000.
But secrecy is the first instinct of any war department, especially amid reports flooding in of a passenger revolt on the plane.
Any admission of a shooting down must have been ruled out politically because those brave passengers just might have retrieved the controls from fanatical hijackers.
For the U.S. military to have snatched victory from their grasp was unthinkable.
There are countless theories and areas of evidence to examine. There is even a theory that the plane could have blown up because of a bomb on board.
Air traffic controllers on the ground reportedly heard an anonymous voice in the cockpit announce: ?Ladies and gentleman. Here is the captain. Please sit down and keep remaining sitting. We have a bomb on board. So sit.?
But if Flight 93 had been blown up by a bomb at cruising altitude, its debris area would have covered at least 20 miles, as in the Lockerbie crash.
The 9/11 Commission speculated that the rogue pilot jolted the plane violently in the minutes before the impact to disrupt a passenger revolt.
This in turn led to claims that he might have succeeded in tearing a wing off, or otherwise wrecking the aircraft in mid-air, causing it to crash.
Boeing has refused to discuss this possibility. Such movements, however, could easily have been caused by the pilot attempting to avoid an approaching heatseeking missile homing in on its engines.
EYEWITNESS reports differed from the official story. Along the plane's route, people confirmed that the Boeing came in from the north-west, but they said it was not nose-diving. Instead it was flying low.
Bob Blair and Linda Shepley saw the plane when it dropped to 2,500ft. Rodney Peterson and Brandon Leventry noticed it at 2,000ft. Terry Butler saw it at about 500ft. Eric Peterson saw the plane at 'maybe 300ft'.
Lee Purbaugh, a scrap metal worker, was the closest. He told reporters: 'I heard this real loud noise coming over my head. I looked up and it was Flight 93, barely 50ft above me.'
'It was coming down at 45 degrees and rocking from side to side. Then the nose suddenly dipped and it just crashed into the ground. There was this big fireball and then a huge cloud of smoke.'
Purbaugh's account was perhaps the nearest of all the witness testimony to the official version of the story. Except for one important element.
Not once did Purbaugh mention the plane being upside down, as the 9/11 Commission, the FBI and the Pentagon all maintained it was.
With such a huge airplane roaring over his head, he could hardly have failed to notice which way up it was.
To some, this cast doubt on the credibility of his reported evidence. To others, it was merely another piece of the Flight 93 jigsaw that failed to fit.

Cleveland Mayor Reported Flight 93 Landed at Cleveland Airport on 9/11 Flight 175 in Vicinity. Cincinnati WCPO TV Cover-ups Why Account Removed From Web Site
State sponsored U.S. media ignores story, leaving 'internet hounds' to smell out the truth behind what really happened to the passengers on the doomed flights.
By Greg Szymanski On the morning of 9/11 a little known Cincinnati television station ran a story saying Flight 93 landed at Cleveland International Airport instead of crashing in Pennsylvania as claimed in the official government story.
Reporters at WCPO Channel 9 quoted then Cleveland Mayor Michael R. White as saying “a Boeing 767 out of Boston made an emergency landing due to a bomb threat,” the airplane landing safely, moved to a secure location and evacuated.
The early morning report when on to say United Airlines verified the plane as Flight 93, but was also deeply concerned about another jetliner in the vicinity, Flight 175, flying from Boston to Los Angeles.
Also included in the little known news report was a comment from United CEO, James Goodwin, who said, “The thoughts of everyone at United are with the passengers and crew of these flights. Our prayers are also with everyone on the ground who may have been involved. United Airlines is working with all the relevant authorities, including the FBI, to obtain further information on these flights.”
Former Mayor White, as well as United and WCPO, could not be reached for comment, but the evidence still remains, even though it was suspiciously removed from the television’s web site in June 2004 in and around the time of the 9/11 Commission hearings.
With the evidence trail getting colder and colder, the obvious still must be asked: if Flight 175 was slamming into the South Tower and Flight 93 was downed over Pennsylvania like the government contends, why was Mayor White saying both planes were in or in the vicinity of Cleveland?
The answer to this question remains a mystery four years later since the 9/11 Commission or the FBI never thoroughly investigated the news report or former Mayor White’s statement.
And if there still happens to be any 9/11 family members still wondering what really happened to their loved ones aboard the doomed 9/11 flights, it isn’t much consolation that the only really serious investigation to date has come from a couple of cyber space sleuths with no real criminal investigation background and only a hyperactive curiosity as their credentials.
But to the credit of these novice sleuths, who never even listed their names in order to take credit for their work, the following information about the original WCPO story and its removal from the internet is all we have to go on:
“Though the story from Cincinnati TV station WCPO is not recent news (it was posted within hours of the 9/11 attacks),” said the sleuths, “I had never heard of it until a fellow researcher recently contacted me. Click on the first link “(see links below) and you will see what is currently posted on the website, ‘This story has been removed from WCPO.com. It was a preliminary AP story, and was factually incorrect.’
“However, using the powerful resource of the Internet Archive http://www.wanttoknow.info, which archives all major websites on the internet on a regular basis, you can see how this webpage appeared over past months and years. Using this excellent resource, you will discover that the original posting (provided below) can be viewed at the second link below.
“Note that the original posting says nothing about being an AP article. Note also that the article continued to be posted for all dates through June 2004, and disappeared only after that. Remember that Flight 93 reportedly crashed in Pennsylvania on 9/11, with all aboard killed. How can this be? See these web sites for verification:
http://www.wcpo.com/specials/2001/americaattacked/news_local/story14.html Besides WCPO’s obvious cover-up, another little known account concerning the passengers aboard the flights concerns the strange – almost unbelievable -- reaction of former Rep. Phil Crane (R-Ill) in response to the information compiled on another internet sleuth’s 9/11web site.
The incident involves a phone call by Rep. Crane to Phil Jayhan, a serious 9/11 fact gatherer, who appears to be on to something and headed in the right direction in solving parts of the 9/11 mystery if this strange -- out of the blue call -- from a Congressman is any indication.
In an extended phone conversation this week concerning the call, Jayhan asked why would a big shot Congressman call him unless it was to designed to gather information, interrogate him or find out what he really knew, as well as indicating he might be hot on the trail of something important
Jayhan, who puts together www.letsroll911.org, also wrote this on his web site about the mysterious call from former Rep. Crane, the former head of the powerful House Ways and Means Committee:
“Well, we all now know there was a series of War Games going on the week of 911, as well as 911 itself. I probably wouldn't have even thought of this if it were not for Congressman Phil Crane’s phone call to me."
“Why take any chances on 911? They had time on their side, and thus a near perfect plan, or a perfect plan that didn't work as advertised. Crane seemed most interested in 'the people' & 'the pathology' more than anything else. Why would he be asking me about this, if indeed flight 93 was the meat wagon? All of the remains would have been sent to path and identified, and no one would be the wiser, right?"
“But as I have said, if I could pin down a reason why Phil Crane would have pulled the stunt he did with me, it would have to be the subject of where are the people...? Because he didn't have a problem with the missile and the pod or that the flight was switched, so he was well acquainted with my web site when he called. But he, they(?) were stumped as to the missing people, and where they went. So, let’s think in Phil Crane’s shoes for a moment. He finally is forced to see the site (let’s roll) by one of his aids who finally had done the research and seen that what my site says is true."
“So Phil Crane and perhaps a few in his staff, or perhaps a few other Congressman and Senators are sitting around, and they see the problem pod, the problem missile and realize this plane was switched.
“I am assuming here that they know something we don't in this area, i.e. namely that there were No bodies or true DNA tests done. They were a PR sham to help sweep 911 under the rug sooner and more efficiently, best not to have grieving loved ones family members crying foul because DNA testing was taking too long to put their hearts to rest, so they faked the DNA test results.”
Intel Chatter "The world wants to be deceived." "Former Air Force chief of staff General Michael Dugan
[fired in the middle of Desert Storm #1 with help from this webmaster]
once commented to me that the Air Force is producing a generation of
illiterate truck drivers. He worried that officers who aspire to senior
leadership positions know a great deal about airplanes and precious little
about airpower. They can skillfully talk with their hands about air
tactics but are ill prepared to think with their heads about air strategy.
For 20 years I have watched the crËme de la crËme of the Air Force officer
corps come to Air University's Air Command and Staff College (ACSC) and
Air War College (AWC). For the most part, these officers have been
appallingly ignorant of the bedrock foundation of airpower thinking,
virtually oblivious to airpower theory and its development, and without
any appreciation of airpower history and its meaning." "Operation
NORTHWOODS may be the most corrupt plan ever created by the U.S.
government. Operation Northwoods had called for nothing less than the
launch of a secret campaign of terrorism within the United States in order
to blame Castro and provoke a war with Cuba." "In the early 1960s, America's top military leaders reportedly
drafted plans to kill innocent people and commit acts of terrorism in U.S.
cities to create public support for a war against Cuba. Code named Operation
NORTHWOODS, the plans reportedly included the possible assassination
of Cuban »migr»s, sinking boats of Cuban refugees on the high seas,
hijacking planes, blowing up a U.S. ship, and even orchestrating
violent terrorism in U.S. cities. The plans were developed as ways to
trick the American public and the international community into supporting
a war to oust Cuba's then new leader, communist Fidel Castro. America's
top military brass even contemplated causing U.S. military casualties,
writing: 'We could blow up a U.S. ship in Guantanamo Bay and blame Cuba,'
and, 'casualty lists in U.S. newspapers would cause a helpful wave of
national indignation.' The plans had the written approval of all of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff and were presented to President Kennedy's defense
secretary, Robert McNamara, in March 1962. But they apparently were
rejected by the civilian leadership and have gone undisclosed for nearly
40 years. The Joint Chiefs at the time were headed by Eisenhower appointee
Army Gen. Lyman L. Lemnitzer, who, with the signed plans in hand made a
pitch to McNamara on March 13, 1962, recommending Operation Northwoods be
run by the military. Another idea was to pay someone in the Castro
government to attack U.S. forces at the Guantanamo naval base - an act,
which Bamford notes, would have amounted to treason." "We could blow up a drone (unmannded) vessel anywhere in the Cuban waters. The presense of Cuban planes or ships merely investigating the intent of the vessel could be fairly compelling evidence that the ship was taken under attack. The US could follow with an air/sea rescue operation covered by US fighters to "evacuate" remaining members of the non-existant crew. Casualty lists in US newspapers would cause a helpful wave of national indignation. We could develop a Communist Cuba terror campaign in the Miami area, in other Flordia cities and even in Washington. The terror campaign could be pointed at Cuban refugees seeking haven in the United States. Use of MIG-type aircraft by US pilots could provide additional provocation. Harassment of civil air, attacks on surface shipping, and destruction of US military drone aircraft by MIG type palnes would be useful. An F-86 properly painted would convince air passengers that they saw a Cuban MIG, especially if the pilot of the transport were to announce that fact. Hijacking attampts against US civil air and surface craft should be encouraged. It is possible to create an incident which would demonstrate convincingly that a Cuban aircraft has attacked and shot down a chartered civilian airliner from the United States. An aircraft at Eglin AFB would be painted and numbered as an exact duplicate for a civil registered aircraft belonging to a CIA proprietary organization in the Miami area. At a designated time the duplicate would be subsituted for the actual civil aircraft and the passengers, all boarded under carefully prepared aliases. The actual registered aircraft would be converted to a drone. Take off times of the drone aircraft and the actual aircraft will be scheduled to allow a rondevous. From the rondevous point the passenger-carrying aircraft will descend to minimum altitude and go directly to an auxiliary airfield at Eglin AFB where arrangements will have been made to evacuate the passengers and return the aircraft to its original status. Meanwhile the drone aircraft will continue to fly the filed flight plan. The drone will be transmitting on the international distress frequency "MAY DAY" message stating it is under attack by Cuban MIG aircraft. The transmission will be interrupted by the destruction of aircraft which will be triggered by radio signal. This will allow IACO radio stations to tell the US what has happened to the aircraft instead of the US trying to "sell" the incident. It is possible to create an incident that will make it appear that Communist Cuban MIGs have destroyed a USAF aircraft over international waters in an unprovoked attack. On one such flight, a pre-briefed pilot would fly Tail-end Charlie. While near the Cuban island this pilot would broadcast that he had been jumped by MIGs and was going down. This pilot would then fly at extremely low altitude and land at a secure base, an Eglin auxiliary. The aircraft would be met by the proper people, quickly stored and given a new tail number. The pilot who performed the mission under an alias would resume his proper identity. The pilot and aircraft would then have disappeared. A submarine or small craft would distribute F-101 parts, parachute, etc. The pilots retuning to Homestead would have a true story as far as they knew. Search ships and aircraft could be dispatched and parts of aircraft found." "The act of terrorizing, or state of being terrorized; a mode of government by terror or intimidation."

former federal prosecutor who won notice for 'pursuing' the Mafia — had
relatives linked to organized crime, including a mobbed-up cousin who was
gunned down by FBI agents in 1977, a new book says. Lewis D'Avanzo, a son
of the mayor's uncle and a guest at Giuliani's first wedding in 1968, was
a 'ruthless and widely feared mob associate' who headed a massive stolen
car ring, according to FBI documents and interviews detailed in Rudy!
An Investigative Biography of Rudolph Giuliani, by Village Voice
senior editor Wayne Barrett. Due in stores next week, the book sketches a
largely unflattering portrait of the clan, depicting his father, Harold,
as a hothead and the 'muscle' behind a brother-in-law's loansharking
operation, run out of a Brooklyn bar. Along with cracking heads, it says
the mayor's father served time in state prison for a stickup, rarely held
an on-the-books job and once was a gunman in a mob shootout in Brighton
Beach, Brooklyn. According to the book, Giuliani's cousin Lewis D'Avanzo
was known as "Steve the Blond" and listed as armed and dangerous in FBI
bulletins. His criminal record included a 10-year federal sentence for the
armed hijacking of a truck loaded with $240,000 worth of mercury. The book
alleges that he was suspected of taking part in several murders. D'Avanzo
was gunned down by the FBI in October 1977, when he tried to run down an
agent after being stopped on a warrant that accused him and two associates
of transporting 100 stolen luxury cars. Quoting an unnamed friend of
D'Avanzo, the book describes a 1962 shootout pitting a local mobster
against the mayor's father and Leo D'Avanzo, Lewis D'Avanzo's father. The
book says Leo was later sanctioned by mob bosses for shooting at a Mafia
member. Leo D'Avanzo, who was known in family circles as a black sheep,
ran loansharking and gambling operations out of a Brooklyn bar where
Giuliani's father worked as a bartender. In his role as debt collector,
his father 'broke legs, smashed kneecaps, crunched noses.' Joan Ellen
D'Avanzo, a cousin who at one time lived with Giuliani when he was a
youngster, became a drug addict who was beaten to death in 1973 at age 34.
Her cause of death was listed as undetermined, but several family members
said she was murdered." "I remember getting a call from the, er, fire department commander,
telling me that they were not sure they were gonna be able to contain the
fire, and I said, 'We've had such terrible loss of life, maybe the
smartest thing to do is pull it.' And they made that decision to pull and
we watched the building collapse." "No, 911 wasn't perpetrated by a bunch of ragheads at the controls
of 757s - again, do your research and thnk for yourself. The 8am work
population for the WTC was about 40,000. Countless jewish companies moved
out just in advance of 911 or had their entire staffs elsewhere that day.
Jews, laughing gleefully, were witnessed photographing the entire
disaster. Number of jews who died alon with all those innocent victims and
police/firefighter heros: exactly one." "Warren E. Buffett, the world's 2nd richest person [and a Jew], was
reportedly at his home in Omaha, Nebraska watching TV when he heard about
the terrorist attacks. He was getting ready to host his 'last annual golf
charity event' which just happened to be at the United States Strategic Command, or
USSTRATCOM, is headquartered at Offutt
Air Force Base, Nebraska. Offutt AFB is, coincidentally, where
President G. W. Bush flew to on Air Force One later in the day for
'safety'. This early golf charity event hosted by Mr. Buffett was to
include celebrities, professional athletes, and a small group of business
leaders in which one of these business leaders became a very lucky person.
This very lucky person was Ann Tatlock, the CEO of Fiduciary Trust Co.
International. Now what made Mrs. Tatlock such a lucky person for being
invited to this charity event that morning? Mrs. Tatlock not only works in
the World Trade Center, but her offices were right where Flight 175
crashed into the WTC 2. '"There on the screen, I saw the second plane
crash into my office," Tatlock recalled,' in the San Francisco Business
Times (week of 2/04/02). 'Anne Tatlock found out about the collision of a
plane with the North Tower while en route to the U.S. Strategic Command
headquarters in Omaha. The 62-year-old chief executive of Fiduciary Trust
Co. International was one of a small group of business leaders at a
charity event hosted by Warren Buffett. Military officers boarded the bus
she was on, and escorted her to an officer's lounge and a television, just
in time to see the second plane hit the South Tower between the 87th and
93rd floors--right where 650 of her employees worked' (Forbes magazine,
10/15/01). 'On the morning of September 11, 2001, Warren Buffett, chairman
of Berkshire Hathaway [owner of GEICO - Government Employees Insurance
Corporation], was watching television in his home in Omaha, Nebraska, as
he got ready to host his last annual Charity Classic golf and tennis
tournament. In the meantime, elsewhere in Omaha, Al Ueltschi, president of
Flight-Safety International, one of Berkshire's two flight service
subsidiaries, was getting ready to golf in the Classic. FlightSafety
International Inc. is reported to have trained at least one of the alleged
9/11 hijackers. He, too, was watching TV, having turned it on in his hotel
room' (Robert P. Miles, 5/02). So was it just a coincidence that the 2nd
richest man in the world was hosting his 'last' annual golf charity event
that particular morning at U.S. Strategic Command headquarters and what
are the odds that a CEO was invited who's offices were right where one of
the hijacked airplanes crashed into? An interesting angle about Ann
Tatlock's company, Fiduciary Trust Co. International, is that President
Bush's nominee to head the panel that's investigating the Sept. 11, 2001
terror attacks, Thomas Kean, used to serve as the company's director which
has a lot of wealthy clients. One interesting note about Ann Tatlock is
that she is a trustee of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) along
with former Secretary of State and current Carlyle Group [owned by Bush
and Bin Laden familes] advisor James A. Baker III
who's law firm, Baker Botts LLP, is defending Saudi Arabia against the
trillion dollar lawsuit filed by the families of 9/11 victims
[prosecuted by the family lawfirm of the webmaster of Pirate News]. HHMI
also employed Don C. Wiley, one of the dozen distinguished microbiologists
that have mysteriously died within five months of each other shortly after
9/11. Warren Edward Buffett, Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive
Officer at Berkshire Hathaway Inc., Net Worth: $36.0 billion. He is also a
director of The Coca-Cola Company
[importer of tons of cocaine into USA according to Jewish
SkolnicksReport.com], The Gillette Company, and The Washington Post
Company. Some people say Mr. Buffett is a very charitable person while
others say that he's a real 'tightwad' (Investopedia.com)... Now if Warren
Buffett hosting a "charity event" at the U.S. Strategic Commander
headquarters on 9/11 in which one of the invited guests was a CEO who's
offices were where the 2nd hijacked plane crashed into at the WTC and that
the head of the 9/11 investigation used to be the director of her company
doesn't raise an eyebrow or two, then maybe the following little tidbits
will. Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway Inc. has a subsidiary company
called NetJets. Oddly enough, a NetJets executive company jet was
"tracking" Flight 93 when it crashed in an open field in Shanksville, PA.
'Additional recordings would be played from the cockpit of an executive
jet that tracked Flight 93 on Sept. 11... An official for NetJets, a
company that sells shares in private business aircraft, confirmed that the
plane tracking Flight 93 belonged to the company. The official, who asked
not to be identified by name, said the company was asked not to comment on
the Sept. 11 flight but would not say who made the request (Holland
Sentinel/AP, 8/09/02). Now why was an executive jet owned by one of Warren
Buffett's companies 'tracking' Flight 93 instead of a military jet try to
intercept it? More interesting is that fact that Flight 93 was
rumored to have been shot down (in which the U.S. Government
vehemently denies) and that a number of witnesses claimed to have seen a
"mysterious small white jet" in the same area that Flight 93 was before it
crashed in which the FBI claimed there was no other plane in the area and
then changed it's story and said there was one, but it was just 'taking
pictures' of the crash. Finally, Mr. Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway Inc. has
large stock holdings in a company called SunTrust Banks, Inc. SunTrust
Banks, Inc. is one of the banks in which most of the alleged 9/11
hijackers reportedly set up bank accounts with using fake social security
numbers. 'Dennis Lormel, the chief of the Federal Bureau of
Investigation's unit conducting the financial inquiry of the Sept. 11
plot, told the New York Times that the hijackers moved $325,000 through 14
bank accounts at SunTrust Bank, making that bank the most heavily relied
upon. California Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein said she was surprised
the false Social Security numbers were not spotted. "They just made them
up and that went through? How does that happen?" Feinstein said (CBS,
7/10/02).'"

911truth.org Half of New Yorkers Believe US Leaders Had Foreknowledge of
Impending 9-11 Attacks and "Consciously Failed" To Act; 66% Call For New
Probe of Unanswered Questions by Congress or New York?s Attorney General,
New Zogby International Poll Reveals
(Utica, NY) - On the eve of a Republican National Convention invoking
9/11 symbols, sound bytes and imagery, half (49.3%) of New York City
residents and 41% of New York citizens overall say that some of our
leaders "knew in advance that attacks were planned on or around September
11, 2001, and that they consciously failed to act," according to the poll
conducted by Zogby International. The poll of New York residents was
conducted from Tuesday August 24 through Thursday August 26, 2004. Overall
results have a margin of sampling error of +/-3.5.
The poll is the first of its kind conducted in America that surveys
attitudes regarding US government complicity in the 9/11 tragedy. Despite
the acute legal and political implications of this accusation, nearly 30%
of registered Republicans and over 38% of those who described themselves
as "very conservative" supported the claim.
The charge found very high support among adults under 30 (62.8%),
African-Americans (62.5%), Hispanics (60.1%), Asians (59.4%), and "Born
Again" Evangelical Christians (47.9%).
Less than two in five (36%) believe that the 9/11 Commission had
"answered all the important questions about what actually happened on
September 11th," and two in three (66%) New Yorkers (and 56.2% overall)
called for another full investigation of the "still unanswered questions"
by Congress or Elliot Spitzer, New York's Attorney General.
Self-identified "very liberal" New Yorkers supported a new inquiry by a
margin of three to one, but so did half (53%) of "very conservative"
citizens across the state. The call for a deeper probe was especially
strong from Hispanics (75.6%), African-Americans (75.3%) citizens with
income from $15-25K (74.3%), women (62%) and Evangelicals (59.9%).
W. David Kubiak, executive director of 911truth.org, the group that
commissioned the poll, expressed genuine surprise that New Yorkers' belief
in the administration's complicity is as high or higher than that seen
overseas. "We're familiar with high levels of 9/11 skepticism abroad where
there has been open debate of the evidence for US government complicity.
On May 26th the Toronto Star reported a national poll showing that 63% of
Canadians are also convinced US leaders had 'prior knowledge' of the
attacks yet declined to act. There was no US coverage of this startling
poll or the facts supporting the Canadians' conclusions, and there has
been virtually no debate on the victim families' scores of still
unanswered questions. I think these numbers show that most New Yorkers are
now fed up with the silence, and that politicians trying to exploit 9/11
do so at their peril. The 9/11 case is not closed and New York's questions
are not going away."
Nicholas Levis of NY911truth.org, an advisor on the poll, agrees, "The
9/11 Commission gave us a plenty of 'recommendations', but far more
plentiful were the discrepancies, gaps and omissions in their supposedly
'final' report. How can proposals based on such deficient findings ever
make us safe? We think these poll numbers are basically saying, 'Wait just
a minute. What about the scores of still outstanding questions? What about
the unexplained collapses of WTC 7, our air defenses, official
accountability, the chain of command on 9/11, the anthrax, insider trading
& FBI field probes? There's so much more to this story that we need to
know about.' When such a huge majority of New Yorkers want a new
investigation, it will be interesting to see how quickly Attorney General
Spitzer and our legislators respond."
SCOPE: The poll covered five areas of related interest: 1) Iraq - do
New Yorkers think that our leaders "deliberately misled" us before the war
(51.2% do); 2) the 9/11 Commission - did it answer all the "important
questions" (only 36% said yes); 3) the inexplicable and largely unreported
collapse of the third WTC skyscraper on 9/11 - what was its number (28% of
NYC area residents knew); 4) the question on complicity; and 5) how many
wanted a new 9/11 probe. All inquiries about questions, responses and
demographics should be directed to Zogby International.
SPONSOR: 911truth.org is a coalition of researchers, journalists and
victim family members working to expose and resolve the hundreds of
critical questions still swirling around 9/11, especially the nearly 400
questions that the Family Steering Committee filed with the 9/11
Commission which they fought to create. Initially welcomed by the
commissioners as a "road map" for their inquiry, these queries cut to the
heart of 9/11 crimes and accountability. Specifically, they raised the
central issues of motive, means and cui bono (who profited?). But the
Commission ignored the majority of these questions, opting only to explore
system failures, miscommunications and incompetence. The victim families'
most incisive issues remain unaddressed to this day. The Zogby
International poll was also cosponsored by Walden Three (walden3.org) and
9/11 Citizens Watch (911citizenswatch.org), a watchdog group which has
monitored the Commission since its inception and will release its
findings, "The 9/11 Omission Report," in several weeks.
On September 9th and 11th, 911Truth.org will cosponsor two large
successive inquiries in New York, a preliminary 9/11 Citizens Commission
hearing and "Confronting the Evidence: 9/11 and the Search for Truth," a
research-focused evidentiary forum. These inquiries will examine many of
the 9/11 Commission-shunned questions and discuss preparation of a
probable cause complaint demanding a grand jury and criminal investigation
from the New York Attorney General. Possible charges range from criminal
negligence and gross dereliction of duty to foreknowledge, complicity and
subsequent obstruction of justice. For details and developments, see

"The RICO (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act)
action lawsuit against President Bush and other high level members of
his administration is based upon prior knowledge of 9/11; knowingly
failing to act, prevent or warn of 9/11; and the ongoing obstruction of
justice by covering up the truth of 9/11; all in violation of the laws
of the United States." "Plaintiff hereby asserts Defendants, officially and individually
are exclusively liable to answer the Counts in this Complaint under the
United States Constitution and provisions of the 18 U.S.C. ß 1964(a) and
(c), Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (hereinafter
'RICO Act') for "failing to act and prevent" the murder of Plaintiff's
husband, Louis Neil Mariani, for financial and political reasons and
have 'obstructed justice' in the aftermath of said criminal acts and
omissions. On '911,' Plaintiff's husband, Louis Neil Mariani, an
American Citizen and paying passenger on United Airlines Flight 175, was
murdered by unidentified perpetrators, (hereinafter "terrorists")
according to Defendant George Walker Bush. At the time of the '911'
attacks Defendant GWB was and continues to be President of the United
States of America and Commander-in-Chief of the United States Armed
Forces. Defendant GWB 'owed a duty' not only to Plaintiff, but the
American People to protect and defend against the preventable attacks
based upon substantial intelligence known to Defendant GWB prior to
'911' which resulted in the death of Plaintiff's husband and thousands
of other innocent victims on '911.' This Court must see through this and
Plaintiff argues from the onset, the reasons why '911' occurred are no
longer a national security risk, but a national security disgrace and
tragedy. Plaintiff asserts, contrary to Defendant GWB's assertion that
OBL (Osama bin Laden) is responsible for '911,' the compelling evidence
that will be presented in this case through discovery, subpoena power by
this Court and testimony at trial will lead to one undisputed fact,
Defendant GWB failed to act and prevent '911' knowing the attacks would
lead to our nation having to engage in an 'International War on Terror
(IWOT)' which would benefit Defendants both financially and for
political reasons. Plaintiff asserts, her husband was murdered on '911'
and Defendant GWB and many of his cabinet members are now profiting from
the IWOT. Plaintiff will prove, the 'Bush family' has had long ties to
power in the federal government and with the Osama Bin Laden family
which raises serious public trust questions yet to be answered, to
include, but not limited to, the fact that Defendant Cheney is profiting
immensely from his former company's exclusive contracts to rebuild Iraq.
Plaintiff reasonably believes Defendants knew or should have known the
attacks on '911' would be carried out and intentionally and deliberately
failed to act and prevent these deadly attacks leading to the untimely
death of her husband. Plaintiff believes, Defendant GWB et al, allowed
the attacks to take place to compel public anger and outcry to engage
our nation and our military men and women in a preventable 'IWOT' for
personal gains and agendas. A pattern of this financial war profiting
and the 'Bush Family' goes back to their dealings with Nazi Germany
during World War II. The facts will show, Defendants' have engaged in
both personal business and national security 'deals' with alleged
terrorists, Osama Bin Laden and Saddam Hussein." "Stanley Hilton now figures his case is stronger because of a
coalition of attorneys, victims' families and bipartisan legislators who
gathered in Washington on Monday to condemn the government's lack of
action in preventing the Sept. 11 attacks. Hilton is the San Francisco
attorney who filed a $7 billion lawsuit in U.S. District Court on June 3
against President Bush and other government officials for "allowing" the
terrorist attacks to occur. Among Hilton's allegations: Bush conspired
to create the Sept. 11 attacks for his own political gain and has been
using Osama bin Laden as a scapegoat. Hilton said he has information
that bin Laden died several years ago of kidney failure. 'I hope it will
expose the fact that there are numbers of people in the government,
including Bush and his top assistants, who wanted this to happen,'
Hilton said. His class-action suit named 10 defendants, including Vice
President Dick Cheney, National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice,
Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, and Transportation Secretary
Norman Mineta. Hilton said he represents the families of 14 victims and
that 400 plaintiffs are involved nationwide. Hilton, Sen. Bob Dole's
former aide, has been publicly critical of conservatives in books he has
written about Dole and the Clinton sex scandal. Hilton, who said he has
sources within the FBI, CIA, the National Security Agency and Naval
intelligence, demands Bush's
impeachment and believes the truth will come out in trial. Hilton
claims the Bush administration ignored intelligence information, refused
to round up suspected terrorists beforehand, and during the hijackings
refused to disable pilot controls and switch to a ground-based remote
system. He claims the government benefited from installing a puppet
Afghan government friendly to U.S. oil interests. Hilton also says Bush
used bin Laden's antagonist image to create a public frenzy, which
allowed the Bush administration to tighten its political
grip." "CONSPIRACY- A person who conspires to commit an offense under
this section shall be subject to the same penalties (other than the
penalty of death) as the penalties prescribed for the offense, the
commission of which was the object of the conspiracy." "The President, Vice-President, and all civil officers of the
United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and
conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and
misdemeanors." "'Enterprise' means any individual, sole proprietorship,
partnership, corporation, business trust, union chartered under the laws
of this state, or other legal entity, or any unchartered union,
association or group of individuals associated in fact although not a
legal entity, and it includes illicit as well as licit enterprises,
AND GOVERNMENTAL, as well as other, entities." "A 'Semite' is any person living in that area, including
Arabs and Christians. It's time we start talking about 'The Other
Anti-Semitism'. A Semite is not a Jew living in America or
Europe." Semite. Etymology: French s»mite, from Semitic Shem, from Late
Latin, from Greek SEm, from Hebrew ShEm, Date: 1848 1 a : a member of
any of a number of peoples of ancient southwestern Asia including the
Akkadians, Phoenicians, Hebrews, and Arabs. b : a descendant of
these peoples 2 : a member of a modern people speaking a Semitic
language "Strictly speaking, it is incorrect to call an ancient Israelite a
'Jew' or to call a contemporary Jew an 'Israelite' or a
'Hebrew.'" "The Jewish 'Anti-defamation League'
and Jewish
'Southern Poverty Law Center' called me an 'anti-Semite'. I can
trace my ancestry, and I AM a Semite. So a Semite can become an
anti-Semite? The word 'Semitism' does not even exist in the Oxford
English Dictionary. Perhaps 'anti-Semanticism' is the beter term for
questioning Zionism and Jewry. Nowadays, only Jews can criticize other
Jews. And we need to take a very close look at WHY anti-Judaism existed
throughout history. A Semite is a descendant of Shem. All people are
descendants of Shem, according to dictionaries, the Christian Bible, the
Jewish Torah and the Islamic Quran. But Jews only compose less than 10%
of the tribes of Israel. And most people who call themselves Jews are
not really Jews - they are descendants of the Mongoloid Khazars from
Asia and Central Europe who converted to Judaism around 700AD. Perhaps
'ADL' is the Anti-Definition League?" "In a radical change in policy, Israel is expected to ratchet up
its fight against terrorism by assassinating its enemies on American
soil as well as in other friendly countries, according to United Press
International [and a presidential directive signed by George Bush Jr].
Jerusalem's current assassination policy has been primarily confined to
the West Bank and Gaza. UPI confirmed the claims with over a half dozen
U.S. foreign-policy and intelligence officials. The U.S. has its own
recent record of targeting enemies on foreign soil. On Nov. 5, a
remote-controlled CIA Predator drone aircraft attacked and killed six
alleged members of the 'al-Qaida' [translation: 'The Database'] terror
network in Yemen [without trial and without appeal], an ally of the
U.S., including a US citizen."

93's secrets - It's time to treat the American people as
adults Pittsburg Post-Gazette The news that Somerset County authorities are returning the remains of
those killed on United Flight 93 Sept. 11 to their families is a reminder
that the FBI has still not seen fit to make public the transcripts of
either the air traffic control tape or the analysis of the two black boxes
from that plane.
Both black boxes were found, various U.S. government agencies have
analyzed them as well as the tape, but all is still being deemed a secret
by the FBI and withheld from the public. Why?
If some of the information from the three sources could be needed in
eventual criminal proceedings, and revelation of it at this time might
damage its validity as evidence in court, then officials should say so,
omit those parts and release the rest.
If something said on the tapes isn't in accord with the version of what
happened on Flight 93 now moving into the realm of mythology, set the
record straight now. The American people shouldn't be treated like
children, to be spoon-fed fairy stories instead of being told the truth.
Besides, there is nothing to be gained by holding out on the American
public in a matter of this sort. Whatever actually happened will
eventually come out, one way or the other. And if the facts don't back up
the current story, the government's credibility will be damaged.
What are Washington officials going to say to us, "We thought it was
better if you didn't know what really happened"? Tell us about Flight 93,
now.

93 - From Chaos to Courage
Cheney Throws Bush Jr. Under Bus for
Shoot Down
Meet the Press "MR. RUSSERT: What's the most important decision you think he made
during the course of the day?
"VICE PRES. CHENEY: Well, the--I suppose the toughest decision was this
question of whether or not we would intercept incoming commercial
aircraft.
"MR. RUSSERT: And you decided?
"VICE PRES. CHENEY: We decided to do it. We'd, in effect, put a flying
combat air patrol up over the city; F-16s with an AWACS, which is an
airborne radar system, and tanker support so they could stay up a long
time...
"It doesn't do any good to put up a combat air patrol if you don't give
them instructions to act, if, in fact, they feel it's appropriate.
"MR. RUSSERT: So if the United States government became aware that a
hijacked commercial airline[r] was destined for the White House or the
Capitol, we would take the plane down?
"VICE PRES. CHENEY: Yes. The president made the decision...that if the
plane would not divert...as a last resort, our pilots were authorized to
take them out. Now, people say, you know, that's a horrendous decision to
make. Well, it is. You've got an airplane full of American citizens,
civilians, captured by...terrorists, headed and are you going to, in fact,
shoot it down, obviously, and kill all those Americans on board?
"...It's a presidential-level decision, and the president made, I
think, exactly the right call in this case, to say, "I wished we'd had
combat air patrol up over New York."
Cheney Orders Pentagon to
Tolerate Cruise Missile Bombing of Pentagon
Secretary of Transportation Mineta Confessed to 911 Commission
Dr. Stan Monteith The Bush Administration claims the terrorists were successful because
the U.S. had faulty intelligence, bad luck, and bureaucratic ineptitude,
but that isn't true. Vice President Dick Cheney monitored the flight path
of Flight 77, the commercial airliner that crashed into the Pentagon.
Secretary of Transportation Norman Mineta was in the Presidential
Emergency Operating Center with Vice President Cheney as American Airlines
Flight 77 approached Washington, D.C.
Secretary Norman Mineta testified to the 911 Commission on May 23, 2003
(quote):
"When I got to the White House, it was being evacuated. . . . Then
the Secret Service escorted me down to the Presidential Emergency
Operations Center, otherwise known as the PEOC. . . . We did not know
how many more attacks might be in progress. . . . During the time that
the airplane was coming in to the Pentagon, there was a young man who
would come in and say to the Vice President, "The plane is 50 miles
out." "The plane is 30 miles out."
And when it got down to "the plane is 10 miles out," the young man
also said to the Vice President, "Do the orders still stand?"
And the Vice President turned and whipped his neck around and said,
"Of course the orders still stand. Have you heard anything to the
contrary?"
Wargames
Were Cover For the Operational Execution of 9/11
Alex Jones & Paul Joseph Watson For almost three years since 9/11 independent researchers have
stockpiled individual smoking guns which prove that the official version
of events was not only a lie but operationally impossible.
However, no single smoking gun has yet been forwarded to explain why
air defenses categorically reversed Standard Operating Procedure and
failed to respond to hijacked jetliners.
Until now.
It is clear that at least five if not six training exercises were in
operation in the days leading up to and on the morning of 9/11. This meant
that NORAD radar screens showed as many as 22 hijacked airliners at the
same time. NORAD had been briefed that this was part of the exercise drill
and therefore normal reactive procedure was forestalled and delayed.
The large numbers of 'blips' on NORAD screens that displayed both real
and 'drill' hijacked planes explain why confused press reports emerged
hours after the attack stating that up to eight planes had been hijacked.
Click here for that
article.
The drill scenario also explains a comment made by air traffic control
personnel which was featured in a July 2004 BBC television report. Click
here for that video clip and article. The controller is told that a
hijacked airliner is heading for New York and responds by saying, "is this
real world or an exercise?"
Alex Jones was one of the first to highlight the wargames in his
documentary film 'Masters of Terror', which was released in August 2002.
Click here to
watch a video clip. Alex explains why the Associated
Press later had to admit the fact that the CIA were running drills of
crashing planes into buildings on the morning of 9/11.
What were the drills called and what was their nature?
1) OPERATION NORTHERN VIGILANCE: This was planned months in advance of
9/11 and ensured that on the morning of 9/11, jet fighters were removed
from patrolling the US east coast and sent to Alaska and Canada, therefore
reducing the amount of fighter planes available to protect the east coast.
2) BIOWARFARE EXERCISE TRIPOD II: Alex Jones first reported on this
back in May when Rudolph Giuliani let the details of it slip in his
testimony to the 9/11 Commission. FEMA arrived in New York on September
10th to set up a command post located at Pier 29 under the auspices of a
'biowarfare exercise scheduled for September 12. This explains why Tom
Kenney of FEMA's National Urban Search and Rescue Team, told Dan Rather of CBS News
that FEMA had arrived in New York on the night of September 10th. This
was originally dismissed as a slip of the tongue. Giuliani was to use this
post as a command post on 9/11 after he evacuated WTC Building 7. As we
reported back in January, Giuliani knew when to
leave WTC 7 because he got advanced warning that the Trade Towers were
about to collapse. "We were operating out of there when we were told
that the World Trade Center was gonna collapse," Rudolph Giuliani told
Peter Jennings of ABC News. How did Giuliani know the towers were about to
collapse when no steel building in history had previously collapsed from
fire damage?
3) OPERATION VIGILANT GUARDIAN: This exercise simulated hijacked planes
in the north eastern sector and started to coincide with 9/11. Lt. Col.
Dawne Deskins, NORAD unit's airborne control and warning officer, was
overseeing the exercise. At 8:40am she took a call from Boston Center
which said it had a hijacked airliner. Her first words, as quoted by
Newhouse News Service were, "It must be part of the exercise." This is
another example of how the numerous drills on the morning of 9/11
deliberately distracted NORAD so that the real hijacked planes couldn't be
intercepted in time.
4) OPERATION NORTHERN GUARDIAN: The details of this exercise are still
scant but it is considered to be part of Vigilant Guardian, relating to
simulating hijacked planes in the north eastern sector.
5) OPERATION VIGILANT WARRIOR: This was referenced in Richard Clarke's
book 'Against All Enemies'. It is thought to have been the 'attack'
component of the Vigilant Guardian exercise.
Another example of how air defenses were purposefully kept preoccupied
so they couldn't protect New York was reported by this website in December
of 2003. The
Air National Guard's 177th Fighter Wing, based at Atlantic City
International Airport in Pomona, were just eight minutes away from New
York and could have intercepted both Flight 11 and Flight 175.
Under NORAD procedures that date to the Cold War, two F-16 fighters
from the 177th were parked around the clock on the Atlantic City runway.
Pilots waited in a nearby building, ready to scramble.
But on the morning of 9/11, the F-16's were performing bombing runs
over an empty stretch of the Pine Barrens near Atlantic City after being
decommissioned from their usual role of protecting the skies of the east
coast.
It was only after both trade towers were hit that the two F-16s landed
and were refitted with air-to-air missiles, then sent aloft.
Now that we have established how NORAD were confused, delayed and
distracted by the numerous wargames, the next question to ask is who if
anyone was aware of which planes were 'real world' and which planes were
'exercise'? The answer to this question will provide us with the name of
the individual who ran the operatonal execution of the 9/11 attack.
Dick Cheney.
As the attack unfolded, Dick
Cheney was running a command bunker in what the Philadelphia Daily News
describes as 'the underground Pentagon'.
Site R, a highly secure complex of buildings inside Raven Rock Mountain
near Blue Ridge Summit, Pa., close to the Maryland-Pennsylvania state line
and about seven miles north of Camp David, is a 53-year-old facility
conceived at the start of the Cold War as an alternate command center in
the event of nuclear war or an attack on Washington.
The bunker is built into a mountain hillside and is virtually
camouflaged to the naked eye. The location betrays itself by the vast
gaggle of satellites, microwave towers and antennae that festoon the
perimeter. Inside the facility there are computer filled caverns and
communication and tracking technology that would put a James Bond movie to
shame.
The entire facility is guarded by heavily armed military police.
Within hours of 9/11 unfolding, five choppers had landed on the
facility's helipad and top officials such as Paul Wolfowitz were ushered
in to join Cheney in the command bunker.
Site R - also known as Raven Rock or the Alternate Joint Communications
Center is from where vice-President Dick Cheney executed the 9/11 attack.
Cheney's command superceded the orders of the Pentagon, the FAA or the
White House. He is the number one suspect in the murder of nearly 3,000
innocent people.
In May of 2001, by presidential order, Cheney was handed direct control
of all wargame and drill operations. This meant he was solely in charge of
the overlapping NORAD drills and wargames on the morning of 9/11, that
prevented Standard Operating Procedure from being implemented, and any of
the hijacked planes being intercepted.
The smoking guns of 9/11 are no longer disparate jigsaw pieces that
serve to just raise more questions than they answer. We now have a
coherent and plausible explanation of how the events unfolded, why there
was no air defense response, and a prime suspect as to who executed these
actions. The facts fit this version of events.
The 9/11 truth movement has just taken a giant leap towards dismantling
the lies of September 11and finally offering justice for those who lost
their lives on that terrible day.

Beyond 2000 - CORPORATE DRONES |
22 November 2001 - "Aerospace giant Boeing has
decided that it needs to give serious thought to cutting pilots out of the
cockpit. The company has established a new organisation
dedicated to efforts in the expanding 'unmanned systems' market and aimed
at fast-tracking the development of pilotless aircraft. At one
time, the US military said it had no desire to allow unmanned aircraft to
carry lethal payloads. However, following tests last year with Predator
UAV's firing Hellfire anti-tank missiles, and the subsequent deployment
and success of the pairing in killing tanks in Afghanistan, the Pentagon
has warmed rapidly to the idea. The Boeing group will look at the
feasibility of cheap, expendable UAV's that could
be sent on suicidal missions. Based in St.Louis, the new
Unmanned Systems group will be headed up by Mike Heinz and report to both
Jerry Daniels, president and chief executive officer of Boeing Military
Aircraft and Missile Systems, and George Muellner, president, Boeing
Phantom Works, the company's advanced research-and-development unit.
'Unmanned systems are the future of aerospace,' Daniels
said." "The X-45A air vehicles have a stealthy, tailless, 27-foot long
airframe with a 34-foot wingspan. They weigh 8,000 pounds (empty) and can
carry a 3,000-pound payload. The open architecture mission control station
has robust and secure satellite-relay and line-of-sight communications
links for distributed control. The X-45A UCAV system is being developed by
the Boeing Phantom Works, which is the advanced R&D unit and catalyst
of innovation for the enterprise. The Boeing Company is the world's
largest manufacturer of satellites, commercial jetliners and military
aircraft. In terms of sales, Boeing is the largest exporter in the United
States. Total company revenues for 2002 were $54
billion." America's defence establishment has disclosed
that it ordered its fighter jets to intercept ALL the passenger
aircraft hijacked in last week's attacks on New York and Washington....
The data made clear that military intelligence was aware of the hijackings
– and possibly the suicidal nature of their mission – before ANY of
the aircraft had hit their targets. It also raised questions about
who ordered the fighter jets to undertake their intercept mission and what
their instructions would have been in the event that they successfully
caught up with a passenger aircraft while it was still in the air....
The US Vice-President, Dick Cheney, revealed in a
television interview over the weekend that President George Bush had given
an order last Tuesday for the military to shoot down any civilian
aircraft that disregarded instructions from air traffic control and
appeared to be a threat. However, Mr Cheney and Mr Bush explained that the
presidential order was given only after the first three planes had hit
their targets.... Last week, rumours surfaced that Flight 93 had been shot down by the
military. Mr. Rumsfeld [US Secretary of War] confirmed a
report in The New York Times today that President Bush had authorized two
midlevel Air Force generals to order hijacked passenger jets that threaten
American cities shot down. "It is a process that works," Mr. Rumsfeld
said. Gen. Henry H. Shelton, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of
Staff, said the Air Force and Air National Guard pilots of the more than
100 aircraft now on alert at 26 bases. "I don't think we've thought
through the moral implications of this," General Loh said. "I find the
whole idea to be reprehensible." Nashua, New Hampshire - Controllers have also
learned that an F-16 fighter closely pursued hijacked United Airlines
Flight 93 until it crashed in southwestern Pennsylvania, the employee
said. Although controllers don't have complete details of the Air Force's
chase of the Boeing 757, they have learned the F-16 made 360-degree turns
to remain close to the commercial jet, the employee said. "He must've seen
the whole thing," the employee said of the F-16 pilot's view of Flight
93's crash. SHANKSVILLE, Pa. - As investigators continued to search for clues to
the crash of United Flight 93, people in this Allegheny Mountains hamlet
were talking about a parallel mystery that one man called "the damndest darn thing" he'd ever seen. In separate
interviews Thursday, five residents who live and work less than four miles
from the crash site said they saw a second plane
flying erratically within minutes of the crash of the Boeing 757 that took
off from Newark two hours earlier Tuesday morning. Susan Mcelwain of
Stonycreek Township said a small white jet with rear engines and no
discernible markings swooped low over her minivan near an intersection and
disappeared over a hilltop, nearly clipping the tops of trees lining the
ridge. An official at the Cleveland Air Traffic Control Center in
Overland, Ohio, which tracked Flight 93 as it turned in the sky and
tracked eastward from the Cleveland area, said "no comment" when asked if
there was any record of a second plane over the crash site. "That's
something that the FBI is working on and I cannot talk about," said
Richard Kettel, head of tower operations at the Cleveland
center. "There is no category of 'enemy airliners,' " a recently retired
F.A.A. official said. He and others said they could not recall any
instance in which a military plane fired on a civilian one in the United
States, though in 1983 a F-4 Phantom fighter that
scrambled to intercept an unidentified target off Cherry Point, N.C.,
accidentally rammed it. That plane was a private twin-engine propeller
plane on the way home from the Bahamas, carrying seven people. An F.A.A.
spokeswoman said earlier this week that there was a policy for shooting
down civilian airliners but would not divulge it. And shooting down
a jet as large as a Boeing 757 or 767 raises other problems. One F.A.A.
official said, "If you keep it from hitting a government building, it's
going to hit something else." U.S. military sources have given the FBI
information that suggests five of the alleged hijackers of the planes that
were used in Tuesday's terror attacks received training at secure U.S.
military installations in the 1990s. THREE OF THE alleged hijackers listed
their address on drivers licenses and car registrations as the Naval Air
Station in Pensacola, Fla.—known as the "Cradle of U.S. Navy Aviation,"
according to a high-ranking U.S. Navy source. The three foreign nationals
training in Pensacola appear to be Saeed Alghamdi and Ahmad Alnami, who
were among the four men who allegedly commandeered United Airlines Flight
93. Passengers on one jet reportedly wrested back
control of it. The passengers of United Airlines Flight 93 out of Newark,
N.J., knew they were going to die. Already at least one passenger
had been killed by the knife-wielding terrorists who had hijacked the
plane. On United Flight 93, at least one flight attendant called home to
say goodbye. CeeCee Lyles called her husband at home in Fort Myers, Fla.,
on her cell phone. There were screams in the background. She sobbed as she
told him she loved him and their children. But some decided they were
going to go down fighting. From the back of the plane, Thomas Burnett, a
businessman from San Ramon, Calif., called his wife, Deena. The flight was
doomed he said. They were going to die. One passenger had already been
stabbed to death. Burnett couldn't just sit and let it happen. "I know
we're all going to die — there's three of us who are going to do something
about it," the family's priest quoted Burnett as saying. A desperate and wild struggle took place aboard
the hijacked United Airlines Flight 93 before it crashed in southwestern
Pennsylvania, according to the plane's cockpit voice recorder, law
enforcement officials said today. In the past week, officials have said
that the passengers appeared to have stormed the cockpit after the four
hijackers commandeered the flight. That account has been based
primarily on cellphone conversations between passengers and people on the
ground. "I told him to go ahead and do it," Lyzbeth said. "I trusted his
instincts, and I said 'Do what you have to do.' I knew that — I thought he
could do it.... I think that they probably killed the
hijackers," Lyzbeth said. "There's no doubt in my
mind." Glick was the 1993 U.S. national collegiate judo champion in the
220-pound class. Fighting for the University of Rochester (New York)....
His childhood sensei, Nagayasu Ogasawa, remarks, "Three people with
knives? It would've been no problem for him." Three days ago, I learned from someone at ABC
News that ABC had videotape -- an angle of the second plane crashing into
the tower—that showed an F-16 fighter jet trailing the plane at a distance
[Drudge Report has the
only photos shown of this from Fox News]. From this point, I will pass
on any censored information to those of you in the mainstream media who
are being blocked from reporting. Is it becoming more clear now that the
plane that went down in Pennsylvania was shot down to prevent it from
attacking its destination? The bill says the passengers and crew aboard the Boeing 757
committed "the ultimate act of selfless courage and supreme sacrifice ...
possibly saving countless lives in the nation's capital." The Gold Medal

"The People get the Government they deserve?"Flight 93 was hijacked by Saudi Air Force pilots recently trained by the United States Air Force and United States Navy. Heroic passengers stormed the cockpit, battled hijackers armed with knives, kicked hijackers' ass, and the hostages regained control of their airliner and put their American Airlines pilots back in charge. Surely this was one of the most important "military" battles in American history, on par and scale with Lexington and Concord, the first battle to start the American Revolution. With ten passengers and crew for each hijacker, and with martial arts and police/military training, the odds were on their side. By wrapping clothing around their arms and hands, they would be able to attack with a decent chance for survival. However, upon killing the hijackers and saving UA93 from crashing, one of several possible scenarios occurred, a revealed by Pentagon documents from 1962 through 2002.
Thus it was imperative for the perpetraitors to destroy the airliners to prevent discovery of their booby-trapped autopilot systems and prevent the airline pilots from testifying that the autopilots had seized control of their airliners. It was also imperative to the perpetraitors to incinerate the "hijackers" to prevent their testomony of being trained by the US military and got paychecks from the US CIA, and perhaps discovery that their true identities/nationalities were nothing like those alleged by US governemt "investigators" after the crashes. |

On United Airlines Flight 93, passengers learned from family by cell phone what would happen to them if they sat on their asses like good little sheeple. They took a vote and decided to storm the hijackers with superior numbers and retake control. US93 was also being stalked by at least a pair of US F-16s from CIA HQ at Langley, Virginia. The fighters-intercepters were armed with air-to-air missles using infra-red guidance computers and cannon with rate of fire of 100 rounds per second, capable of sawing an aircraft in half. As passengers and crew fought for their lives in the unFriendly Skies, the F-16s opened fire on the airliner. TV News reported that passengers screamed on cell phones that the airliner's engine exploded. Witnesses on the ground saw the missle tracking the airliner. Wreckage on the ground was scattered over an eight-mile area, consistent with explosion at high altitude, not "bouncing" sideways from a vertical impact.
Then Dictator George Bush II confessed he ordered US Air Force jet fighters to shoot down United Airlines Flight 93, long before becoming a danger to DC (the airliner—Bush is still a danger to DC). Vice Dictator Dick Cheney, former US Secretary for War for Dictator George Bush I, confessed the USAF fighters intercepted all the hijacked airliners that fateful day. F-16 supersonic fighters, armed with Sidewinder aia-to-air missles and Gatling cannon firing 100 uranium grenades per second, travelling 1,200 mph, closed on the airliner which also was approaching them at 600 mph. Total closing speed was 1,800 mph. |
UA 93 crashed and burned near Shanksville, Pennsylvania. At the crater, only a single hamburger-sized peice of flesh remained out of 46 people. This begs the question: Was the Pentagon and/or White House terrified of the hijackers and black-boxes surviving to see the light of court and Congressional Committees? (But many bodies were apparently recovered far away from the crash site due to the mid-air explosion.) The White House and Pentagon announced that 100 US Air Force and Air National Guard jet crews were on alert 24-hours a day, ready to shoot down as many US airliners as "required". The White House also paid a $15-Billion bribe to the bankrupt airlines to self-censor and not complain about US military forces murdering US airline passengers and crews. While this bribe is the equivalent of Socialist Welfare, as European commentators pointed out, its true purpose was censorship, paid for by the taxpayers.
At Nuremburg, the Nazis on Death Row didn't claim stupidity, they said, "Ve vas unlee follow ze odors, Mein Fuhrer! Seig Heil Hitler!" As members of Skull and Bones, George Bushes worship Nazi ideals with an entire room at Yale University dedicated to Nazi paraphenalia. His granddaddy Prescott Bush, a Wall Street corporate trial lawyer, was employed by several companies convicted during World War 2 for doing business with Nazi Germany. In 1980, his daddy George Sr, as CIA Director running against Jimmy Carter for president/vice-president, committed treason by paying the Iranian terrorists to hold US embassy personnel hostage until Reaga/Bush won. In 1983, Bush Sr. also paid Nazi war criminal Klaus Barbi, the Butcher of Lyon, to use his Nazi troopers to overthrow democracy in Bolivia, massacre its elected leaders, and establish a dictatorship with cocaine as its nation's official "gold standard".

by ROWLAND MORGAN The heart-thumping moment came when when passengers on board one of the hijacked 9/11 jets fought back against the ruthless fanatics hellbent on crashing the plane into the heart of America. Jumping out of their seats to a rallying cry of ‘Let’s roll!’, they charged towards the front of the Boeing 757 and began smashing down the cockpit door to reach the hijackers at the controls. Amid the desperate commotion, the plane rolled violently from right to left and pitched up and down as the rogue pilots tried to throw the passengers beyond the door off balance. As the struggle continued, the cockpit voice recorder captured the hijackers urgently discussing whether to ditch the plane. ‘Is that it? Shall we finish it off?’ asked one of the fanatics. ‘No, not yet. When they all come, we finish it off,’ was the reply. Minutes later, at10.03am, with the same voices shouting in Arabic, ‘Allah is the greatest, Allah is the greatest,’ the plane headed down, banked hard right and rolled on to its back. It smashed into an empty field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, at its top speed of 580mph and exploded into a massive fireball. Evidence suggests a sinister twist The flames set nearby woods on fire as the impact sprayed body parts and other debris into the trees and up into the sky, to float to earth as far as eight miles away. This, then, is the legend of United Airways Flight 93, one that has been vigorously promoted in a stream of books and films, most recently in the £9.6 million Hollywood movie United 93. It is the story of how 33 innocent passengers and seven crew gave their lives to save countless others as their plane flew kamikaze-style towards the White House or the Capitol in Washington. To a nation still reeling from the attacks on New York’s World Trade Centre and the Pentagon that same September morning, these were men and women every bit as heroic as those who had fought at the Alamo. Yet my own exhaustive investigations have led me to conclude that the story of Flight 93 is far from being the straightforward account of supreme courage that the authorities would have us believe. Instead, the real story is mired in cynical manipulation and warmongering propaganda. I am convinced there is evidence to suggest a wholly sinister twist to the tale that already holds pride of place in American folklore. For I believe that Flight 93 may well have been deliberately shot down as a means of stopping it from reaching its ultimate target — even at the expense of the 40 blameless people on board. It is a suspicion that was held even by the FBI, but was swept aside as a shaken America clung on to the official version of selfless sacrifice and raw patriotism. Today, with the approach of the fifth anniversary of 9/11, some will still say that such speculation only serves to lend comfort to terrorists and does a disservice to the dead. Others, however, will feel there are too many disquieting circumstances and unanswered questions to simply ignore. But let us examine the evidence — so that you can come to your own conclusion. The massive impact caused the entire plane to disappear 30ft deep into the earth, telescoping down on itself and crushing everyone and everything inside the fuselage beyond recognition. Why did the engines go missing? However, the absence of any significant debris — including tailplane and wings — bewildered witnesses, relatives and, more importantly, some crash experts. They found it hard to believe that an airliner up to 155ft long, with two engines each weighing more than six tons, could have penetrated the ground so completely as to utterly disappear. Had it, in reality, been blown to pieces in mid-air? Certainly it is unclear how a single piece of fuselage the size of a dining room table could have been recovered from a marina in Indian Lake, a couple of miles away from the crash site — unless it fell from the sky during an aerial break-up. But a bigger mystery is why the engines went missing. Considering their weight, they should have plunged deep into the earth along with the rest of the airliner. Yet they weren’t in the crater and only a one-ton segment of an engine was ever recovered, again more than a mile from the crash site. The FBI said, unconvincingly, that it had ‘bounced’ there. The FBI also claimed metal fragments found up to eight miles away could have been carried there by the wind, even though the breeze was very light. Witnesses said nothing was left at the crash site, yet the FBI belatedly claimed to have made two sensational discoveries — a red bandana and a passport allegedly belonging to the hijackers. Very conveniently, these turned up as prosecution evidence earlier this year at the trial of Zacarias Moussaoui, the socalled 20th hijacker and only terrorist to be convicted over the 9/11 atrocities. [sic - There was no trial and he was never charged with 9/11 crimes. After years of torture, he "confessed" under duress of electroshock. His "sentencing hearing" is what the Media Mafia calls his "trial", but the prosecution had zero evidence tying him to 9/11.]
If flight 93 was shot down, there must have been a fighter jet in the skies to unleash a guided missile. The U.S. government has admitted that two F-15s were flying above New York City before 9am on September 11 and three F-16s were patrolling over Washington by 9.40am. They could have reached Shanksville in minutes. According to investigative writer David Ray Griffin, several witnesses saw two F-16s tailing Flight 93 minutes before it went down. Twelve eyewitnesses state seeing another jet nearby. They claim they saw an F-16 move closer in and fire what were probably two Sidewinder missiles, one of them catching at least one of the Boeing’s huge engines, after which the ‘plane dropped like a stone’. Someone else ‘heard a loud bang’ and saw the airliner plummet. A Vietnam War veteran said he ‘heard a missile’, a sound he knew well. It is debatable how seriously we should take these reports. But there are numerous and highly credible witness accounts of a mysterious white jet being seen after Flight 93 went down. Jim Brant, owner of the Indian Lake marina where debris was found, said he heard the roar of jet engines overhead, then saw a fireball rise into the air. He looked up and noticed a white plane circling the wreckage. ‘It reminded me of a fighter jet,’ he said. Another resident, Tom Spinelli, said: ‘I saw the white plane. It was flying around all over the place like it was looking for something. I saw it before and after the crash.’ He said it had high tail wings and no markings on it. John Feegle, another witness, said: ‘It didn’t look like a commercial plane. It had a real goofy tail on it, like a high tail. It circled around, and it was gone.’ Dennis Decker and his friend Rick Chaney were also close to the impact site. ‘As soon as we looked up we saw a mid-sized jet flying low and fast,’ said Decker. ‘It appeared to make a loop or part of a circle, and then it turned fast and headed out.’ Decker and Chaney described the jet as white with no markings. Decker added: ‘It was a jet plane, and it had to be flying real close when that 757 went down. If I was the FBI, I’d find out who was driving that plane.’ A total of 12 eyewitnesses are on record as having seen the white jet. One witness, Susan McElwain, complained that the FBI told her there was no plane and did not note down her account. However, amid the growing furore over the sightings, the FBI was forced to offer an explanation, which again many found unconvincing. It claimed the jet was a passing civilian Fairchild Falcon 20 that was asked to descend to 5,000ft some minutes after the crash to give co-ordinates for the site. The plane and pilot have never been produced or identified. The military’s role in 9/11 is a mystery.
One commentator pointed out: ‘The reason why this seems so implausible is that, first, by 10.06am on September 11, all non-military aircraft in U.S. airspace had received orders more than half an hour earlier to land at the nearest airport. ‘Second, such was the density of emergency phone calls from people on the ground in the Shanksville area as to the location of the crash site, that aerial co-ordinates would have been completely unnecessary. ‘Third, with F-16s supposedly in the vicinity, it seems extraordinarily unlikely that, at a time when no one knew for sure whether there might be any more hijacked aircraft still in the sky, the military would ask a civilian aircraft that just happened to be in the area for help.’ The military’s role in 9/11 is shrouded in confusion, ambiguity and inconsistency. A news report on September 20, 2001, said: ‘America’s defence establishment has disclosed that it ordered its fighter jets to intercept all the passenger aircraft hijacked in last week’s attacks on New York and Washington.’ The report also stated that military intelligence was aware of the hijackings before any of the aircraft had hit their targets. Three years later, however, the military said it hadn’t heard about Flight 93 until after the plane had crashed [sic - Officials Didn't Lie to Sept. 11 Panel, Pentagon Says - "Maj. Gen. Larry Arnold and Col. Alan Scott told commissioners that NORAD began tracking United Airlines Flight 93 at 9:16 a.m. on Sept. 11 and intended to intercept it."] — a line accepted by the official 9/11 Commission, which published its findings in July 2004. The official inquiry said the Federal Aviation Authority — responsible for the security and safety of U.S. civilian aviation — had been incompetent in failing to alert the U.S. Air Force. But the FAA had already acted quickly in ordering more than 4,000 aircraft to land at the nearest airstrip to avoid any more hijacks. And the military would have learned of Flight 93’s hijack via teleconferences set up by the FAA, the White House and the U.S. Defence Department as events began to unfold on September 11. Richard Clarke, who ran the White House video conference, stated that at 9.27am, the FAA informed both Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and General Richard Myers, Chief of Defence Staff, of a number of ‘potential hijacks’ including ‘United 93 over Pennsylvania’. Therefore, more than 25 minutes before Flight 93 went down, both Rumsfeld and Myers knew all about it. No wonder the military’s claim to have learned about Flight 93 only after it crashed is dismissed by many as a bare-faced lie. The FBI was in charge of the investigation. In other air crashes, information from the flight data recorder and the cockpit voice recorder — the black box recorders — were dealt with in an open manner, with crash investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board discussing the progress of their inquiries with reporters. But in the case of Flight 93, the Transportation Safety Board was not in charge of the investigation — the FBI was. The black box recorders were reportedly found buried 25ft deep inside the crater. But a threeminute discrepancy in the crash time led to suspicions of foul play. Seismic records, consolidated from four seismology stations in the region, originally pegged the impact time at 10.06am. It was only later that the Pentagon and the 9/11 Commission decreed that the correct impact time to have been at 10.03am. But Terry Wallace, who heads the Southern Arizona Seismic Observatory and is considered the leading expert on the seismology of man-made events, was puzzled. He complained: ‘The seismic signals are consistent with impact at 10.06am and five seconds plus or minus two seconds. I don’t know where the 10.03 time comes from.’ So there were two crash times. Sceptics note that a lot could happen in three minutes — minutes that could be removed from the end of a flight-deck recording to delete evidence of an attack by U.S. jets. The FBI kept the contents of the voice recorder secret until it was forced by bereaved relatives to play the tape under heavy security at a hotel in April 2002. The family members later reported they heard sounds of an on-board struggle beginning at 9.58am, with a final ‘rushing sound’ at 10.03am, when the tape fell silent. Could the ‘rushing sound’ have been made by the plane being holed? And what of the moment when the plane hit the ground? ‘There is no sound of the impact,’ said Kenneth Nacke, whose brother Lou had been on Flight 93. There is a further twist. In 2006, when the judge at the trial of Zacarias Moussaoui ordered a transcript of the cockpit voice recorder, it ended with the sound of the hijackers shouting praises to Allah. Just where had those praises been in 2002 when the tape was first played to relatives? For many, their sudden appearance confirmed suspicions of tape tampering. At first, the FBI was keen to show it was keeping an open mind over the fate of Flight 93. Within days of the crash, Reuters reported from Shanksville: ‘Federal investigators said they could not rule out the possibility that the United Airlines jetliner that crashed in rural western Pennsylvania during this week’s attacks on New York and the Pentagon was shot down.’ ‘We have not ruled out that,’ FBI agent Bill Crowley told a news conference when asked about reports that a U.S. fighter jet may have fired on the hijacked Boeing 757. ‘We haven’t ruled out anything yet.’ Why did Crowley later retract his statement — and on the same day as the U.S. Air Force issued its official denial of any involvement? At the crux of the legend of Flight 93 are the phones calls passengers are said to have made to their loved ones after the hijackers took control. These are said to have alerted the passengers to the fact that they were victims of no ordinary hijacking, but a co-ordinated mission by fanatics to strike at the heart of America in New York and Washington. At the same time, a number of passengers allegedly told relatives of their resolve to fight back. Interestingly, phone contact from passengers on the two hijacked planes that hit the Twin Towers and a third jet which crashed into the Pentagon that same morning was scarce to non-existent. Yet officially there were 35 calls made among the 40 passengers and crew on Flight 93, with callers using either mobile phones or GTE Airfones fitted into the backs of the aircraft seats.
The use of mobile phones is suspect anyway because telecommunications experts say that — given the technology of 2001 — calls at an altitude of six miles could have only occurred by fluke at best. Just as baffling, the FBI insisted there were 13 mobile phone calls — of which there were no billing records — yet reduced this number to just two at the trial this year of Zacarias Moussaoui when the evidence risked being exposed to the harsh light of law. Why had the FBI failed to put the record straight over the previous four-and-a-half years? One answer is that it suited the heroism legend to keep silent as the Pentagon banged the drum for war in Iraq. Mrs Beamer only learned of her husband’s final call four days later. The 9/11 Commission claimed that five of the calls described the intent of the passengers and crew to revolt against the hijackers. One caller, the Commission said, ended her message with the words: ‘Everyone’s running up to first class. I’ve got to go. Bye.’ But all this begs the question: why did the hijackers allow such a free-for-all of phone calls as they attempted to terrify their hostages? After all, the hijackers would have realised that experts would have been able to locate the lost aircraft if people were using their mobles. The most intriguing of the calls is the one said to have been made by Flight 93’s most famous passenger Todd Beamer, whose ‘Let’s roll!’ phrase became a byword for the victims’ heroism and patriotism. Beamer’s call was said to have been taken by a telephone supervisor working for the Verizon Corporation, owners of GTE Airfones, the gadgets on the airplane seats. At the time, Verizon had a contract worth £750million for installing a high-security telecoms package across U.S. government departments, including the Pentagon. One of its supervisors, Lisa Jefferson, an evangelical Christian like Beamer himself, retains a vivid recollection of her 15-minute conversation with him. After discovering that she shared her first name with Beamer’s wife, they apparently talked about his two little boys and the new baby on the way, Beamer’s fear that he might not make it home, and his faith. Faced with the awful prospect of dying on board Flight 93, Beamer supposedly recited the Lord’s Prayer and Psalm 23 with Mrs Jefferson. He also asked her to promise to call his wife. Mrs Jefferson received a Verizon Excellence Award from her bosses for her handling of the call. To some this may have seemed inappropriate. She had not taken a recording of it, contrary to convention. She had not gone through the routine questions in her distress-call manual. She had not connected this agitated man to his wife waiting anxiously at home. Nor had she informed his wife subsequently of the call as promised. Mrs Beamer only learned of her husband’s final call four days later, when a representative of United Airlines got in touch. She says the United Airlines representative told her: ‘The FBI had been keeping the information private until they’ve had the opportunity to review the material. But now they’ve released it, I have a written summary of the call.’ But later Mrs Beamer learned that the FBI had not kept the call so secret after all. Her husband’s boss at his computer company had already spun the story of Beamer the hero aboard Flight 93 before anyone else knew of his phone call. As for Lisa Jefferson’s evidence, it was single-sourced, unsubstantiated hearsay of which there was no record. For spooks inside a sprawling empire of wires like Verizon, rigging up a phone call to Lisa Jefferson’s headset would have been simple. ‘Let’s roll!’ became the war on terror’s recruitment slogan. She had no idea what Beamer’s voice sounded like, and she would never hear it again to judge whether he had actually been speaking to her. This year, Lisa Jefferson published a book entitled Called — the story of seeing ‘her life transformed, simply by answering Todd Beamer’s call’. The blurb added: ‘Jefferson sends a stirring challenge to all of us whether it comes during quiet obscurity or international adversity, we must be prepared to answer God’s call.’ Evangelical Christians throughout America rallied to that call. But one puzzle remains: Todd Beamer’s wife later said she had never before heard of his reciting the Lord’s Prayer in pressure situations. Nor, she added, was Psalm 23 something he often recited. Todd Beamer's ‘Let’s roll!’ phrase became the war on terror’s recruitment slogan. President Bush had launched the legend in a speech on September 20, 2001 as he declared his unprecedented ‘war on terror’. Beamer’s story of selfless patriotism, according to the President, was a ‘defining moment’ in American history. Alongside President Bush on this occasion was Todd Beamer’s wife Lisa. Nobody, of course, would begrudge Mrs Beamer her celebrity, given her tragic circumstances. But her presence undoubtedly helped President Bush’s cause. The President again invoked her evangelical Christian husband’s courage in another speech a month later. ‘We will no doubt face new challenges,’ said the man widely regarded as having taken office fully intending to attack Iraq. ‘But we have our marching orders. My fellow Americans… let’s roll!’ Such a phrase couldn’t fail to chime with the President’s gung-ho admirers — nor with the 40 million evangelical Christians in the so-called ‘red’ states where the Bush regime had its most fervent support. Later U.S. Navy personnel would spell out the words 9/11 LET’S ROLL by forming themselves on the deck of a warship bound for Iraq. Lisa Beamer, always a staunch ally of the White House and its war on terror, had herself photographed unveiling a ‘Let’s Roll’ logo on the side of a U.S. Air Force F-16. She even sought to have ‘Let’s Roll’ trademarked and signed a six-figure book deal which, along with her seven-figure compensation cheque, made her a rich woman. And in August 2002, just in time for the first 9/11 anniversary, she published her memoir entitled — predictably — Let’s Roll! The front cover showed the author with the Stars and Stripes and the publisher issued a staggering one million copies in hardback. Secrecy is the first instinct of any war. Truly, the Let’s Roll slogan had become a call to arms — just at a time the White House needed it most. Bush administration not admit its guilt? It could surely have argued that the poor souls lost in the airliner were a tragic but necessary sacrifice in order to prevent horror and destruction on a larger scale in at the Capitol Washington. Air Force scrambles had been frequent enough in the past. One report said there had been 129 within the U.S. during 2000. But secrecy is the first instinct of any war department, especially amid reports flooding in of a passenger revolt on the plane. Any admission of a shooting down must have been ruled out politically because those brave passengers just might have retrieved the controls from fanatical hijackers. For the U.S. military to have snatched victory from their grasp was unthinkable. There are countless theories and areas of evidence to examine. There is even a theory that the plane could have blown up because of a bomb on board. Air traffic controllers on the ground reportedly heard an anonymous voice in the cockpit announce: ‘Ladies and gentleman. Here is the captain. Please sit down and keep remaining sitting. We have a bomb on board. So sit.’ But if Flight 93 had been blown up by a bomb at cruising altitude, its debris area would have covered at least 20 miles, as in the Lockerbie crash. The 9/11 Commission speculated that the rogue pilot jolted the plane violently in the minutes before the impact to disrupt a passenger revolt. This in turn led to claims that he might have succeeded in tearing a wing off, or otherwise wrecking the aircraft in mid-air, causing it to crash. Boeing has refused to discuss this possibility. Such movements, however, could easily have been caused by the pilot attempting to avoid an approaching heatseeking missile homing in on its engines. EYEWITNESS reports differed from the official story. Along the plane’s route, people confirmed that the Boeing came in from the north-west, but they said it was not nose-diving. Instead it was flying low. Bob Blair and Linda Shepley saw the plane when it dropped to 2,500ft. Rodney Peterson and Brandon Leventry noticed it at 2,000ft. Terry Butler saw it at about 500ft. Eric Peterson saw the plane at ‘maybe 300ft’. Lee Purbaugh, a scrap metal worker, was the closest. He told reporters: ‘I heard this real loud noise coming over my head. I looked up and it was Flight 93, barely 50ft above me. ‘It was coming down at 45 degrees and rocking from side to side. Then the nose suddenly dipped and it just crashed into the ground. There was this big fireball and then a huge cloud of smoke.’ Purbaugh’s account was perhaps the nearest of all the witness testimony to the official version of the story. Except for one important element. Not once did Purbaugh mention the plane being upside down, as the 9/11 Commission, the FBI and the Pentagon all maintained it was. With such a huge airplane roaring over his head, he could hardly have failed to notice which way up it was. To some, this cast doubt on the credibility of his reported evidence. To others, it was merely another piece of the Flight 93 jigsaw that failed to fit.

August 08, 2003 WASHINGTON — U.S. investigators now believe that a hijacker in the cockpit aboard United Airlines Flight 93 instructed terrorist-pilot Ziad Samir Jarrah to crash the jetliner into a Pennsylvania field because of a passenger uprising in the cabin. This theory, based on the government's analysis of cockpit recordings, discounts the popular perception of passengers grappling with terrorists to seize the plane's controls. The government's findings -- laid out deep within the report on the Sept. 11 attacks that was sent to Congress last month -- aim to resolve one of the enduring mysteries of the deadliest terror attacks in U.S. history: What happened in the final minutes aboard Flight 93? The FBI maintains its analysis does not diminish the heroism of passengers who apparently had rushed down the airliner's narrow aisle to try to overtake the hijackers. President Bush and Atty. Gen. John Ashcroft have regularly praised the courage of those aboard Flight 93, some of whom told family members by telephone that they were planning to storm the cockpit. "While no one will ever know exactly what transpired in the final minutes of Flight 93, every shred of evidence indicates this plane crashed because of the heroic actions of the passengers," FBI spokeswoman Susan Whitson said Thursday. Thirty-three passengers, seven crew members and the four hijackers died. Citing transcripts of the still-secret cockpit recordings, FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III told congressional investigators in a closed briefing last year that, minutes before Flight 93 crashed, one of the hijackers "advised Jarrah to crash the plane and end the passengers' attempt to retake the airplane." Jarrah is thought to have been the terrorist-pilot because he was the only one of the four hijackers aboard known to have a pilot's license. Mueller's description was disclosed in the 858-page report to Congress. Previous statements by government officials about what occurred in the cockpit have been ambiguous. The same cockpit recording was played in April 2002 for family members of Flight 93 victims, with the FBI providing a transcript. Afterward, some family members indicated they were led to believe passengers used a food cart as a shield and successfully broke into the cockpit.
By the CNN Wire Staff Sandy Dahl, who became one of the tragic faces of 9/11 after her husband was killed while piloting United Flight 93, which crashed in Pennsylvania, died Friday. Dahl, 52, was found dead in her home in Colorado. Jefferson County Deputy Coroner Carl Blesch said Saturday that there was no indication of foul play. Dahl worked tirelessly running the Captain Jason Dahl Scholarship Fund and her death was a surprise, said David Dosch, a family friend. "Sandy was instrumental in the creation of the Dahl Fund following the tragic events of 9/11, and her guiding light will be missed," the fund said in a statement posted on its website. She died in her sleep from natural causes, it said. The scholarship fund gives money to aspiring pilots to help them attend commercial flight training schools. "Sandy and Jason Dahl were my best friends," said Dosch, who also works at the scholarship fund. Jason Dahl was piloting United Flight 93 on September 11, 2001, when it crashed in a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. It is believed that passengers aboard that flight thwarted a plot to steer the plane through the U.S. Capitol dome and eventually caused it to crash in a field. In an interview last year on the anniversary of 9/11, Sandy Dahl wore their wedding ring. "I do think about him every day," she told CNN affiliate KMGH. "The reason I am doing this (interview) today and the reason that I do this at all is to make sure he is never forgotten." CNN's Greg Morrison contributed to this report.
The Captain Jason Dahl Scholarship Fund is a IRS qualified 501(c)3 Non-Profit Corporation established to provide scholarships for qualified students who wish to attend accredited commercial flight training schools in the United States. Captain Dahl himself received a $2,000 scholarship toward his flight school tuition at San Jose State University in California, after completing and winning an essay contest with the subject entitled, “Why I Want to Fly.” Captain Dahl loved to fly and had a natural ability which he discovered at a young age due to such scholarships. He became a Standards Captain for United Airlines in Denver, Colorado. As Captain of United Flight 93 on September 11, 2001, Jason was among the first to give his life in a valiant effort to protect the passengers and crew of his ship. We have no doubt Jason would willingly serve again, because he was that kind of pilot, father and man. Annual scholarship awards are determined by a twelve person board, whose membership includes his widow, Sandra Dahl, and close friends David Dosch, Tom Wellborn, and Kevin Larson.

SO SANDY DAHL WAS A LUCIFERIAN ANTI-CHRISTIAN MORMON FROM PLANET KOLOB... STILL RAKING IN THE "DONATIONS" AFTER HER DEATH... By THE DENVER POST DENVER — Sandy Dahl, who channeled the tragedy of her husband's death on Sept. 11, 2001, into a powerful campaign to honor his memory, has died. Dahl, 52, apparently passed away in her sleep, said family friend David Dosch. Dahl's husband, Jason, was the captain of United Flight 93 on 9/11. She strongly believed Jason fought alongside passengers to keep terrorists from crashing the plane into the U.S. Capitol or the White House. The plane instead crashed into a field in rural Pennsylvania. The couple lived in the Denver-area dream home Jason was renovating. Sandy moved out following the Sept. 11 attacks, but continued to live in Colorado. After Jason's death, Dahl became a public face for all grieving 9/11 families. She founded a scholarship in Jason's honor to provide funding for young pilots to receive their education. And she gradually warmed to public speaking, to make sure the heroism of Jason and many others aboard Flight 93 was not forgotten. ”They did what would almost never be asked of anyone,” Dahl told The Denver Post last year. ”I want to make sure history is written.” Dahl, though, said it was emotionally difficult to keep up the effort. She said she had nightmares and had been told she had post-traumatic stress disorder. Still, she kept going. ”It's an unusually wonderful thing they did, their self-sacrifice,” Dahl said of those aboard Flight 93. News of Dahl's death was first reported Friday night by a Denver TV channel. Dosch, who is the president of the Captain Jason Dahl Scholarship Fund, said Sandy's death was a surprise. ”Jason and Sandy were my best friends,” he said. ”This is a complete shock.” Tom Bush, a family friend who is also a scholarship fund board member, said Dahl was in good health. She attended the scholarship fund's annual awards dinner earlier this month. ”She was so proud to be able to be a part of that, to present those scholarships to this year's winners,” Bush said. He said Dahl died peacefully, but the cause of her death has not been determined. ”She was a brave woman, I think a soldier herself in many ways, standing up for this country, just like her husband did,” Bush said. ”It's kind of appropriate that it's Memorial Day weekend.” The impact of Dahl's campaign to honor her husband and other 9/11 heroes was evident Friday night, as news of Dahl's death spread on Twitter. By Joe Rodriguez SAN JOSE – After Sandra Dahl's husband died Sept. 11, 2001, she had their names inscribed on his gravestone. Capt. Jason Dahl was the pilot of United Airlines Flight 93, which crashed into a Pennsylvania field during an aborted hijacking. His widow planned that when she died, she would be buried with him. But the tragedy of Dahl's death – an event remembered with honor across the land – has fallen into a bitter family feud over his remains. His widow has sued San Jose's Oak Hill Memorial Park, where he's buried, claiming the cemetery replaced his tombstone with one that removed all mention of her name – and did so at the request of her mother-in-law, Mildred Dahl. And in a twist, Mildred Dahl died Monday at age 83, one day before she was named in the lawsuit. The couple met on the job – Sandra is a United flight attendant – and were together 12 years, the last five as husband and wife. They had no children. Jason Dahl was 43. The pilot's brother-in-law, Bill Heiderich, said he didn't know Sandra had filed the lawsuit. But he doubted that Mildred or any other Dahl family member had agreed to allow Sandra to be buried next to Jason. “That double headstone was a shot at the family,” said Heiderich, who is married to Jason Dahl's sister. “She put a double stone on a place where she cannot be buried.” He said Jason's parents, Mildred and Duane, had bought a four-grave site at Oak Hill years ago and that the family – not Sandra – has the right to choose who is buried there. Duane Dahl is buried in the plot, to be joined by his wife. Sandra Dahl, 47, said she learned about the tombstone switch last spring, when a friend who had recently visited the grave site asked why her name had been removed from the stone. She said that when she asked the cemetery for an explanation, she was told Mildred Dahl requested the new headstone and that the original stone should be buried under the new one. “I'm absolutely horrified and disgusted that anyone would disturb his grave like that,” she said yesterday from her home in Colorado. Because of the tombstone dispute, Sandra Dahl wants to move his remains to a cemetery in Littleton, Colo., where they lived. “I want to be buried near him,” she said. “I never intend to marry again.” Heiderich said Jason Dahl's remains belong in San Jose, noting that an elementary school and other places have been named after the pilot. “He may have lived in Colorado, but his family and history are here,” Heiderich said. Sandra Dahl's lawyer, Andrew Pierce, was surprised to learn of Mildred's death. “It's too bad, but it might simplify things from now on,” he said. Pierce said that under California law, a spouse has control over burial location, except when a will specifies otherwise. But once a body is buried, a cemetery's agreement is needed to move the remains, he said. Pierce said Oak Hill initially agreed to the Colorado move, but backed off after Mildred Dahl objected. The lawsuit also names Jason Dahl Jr., the pilot's adult son from a previous marriage, as a defendant, saying he also opposed the move. A spokesman for the cemetery's corporate parent, Service Corporation International, said executives hadn't seen the lawsuit. Comments "I have read this thread through a few times, and have thought the same thing through every reading. We all know Flight 93 didn't crash at Shanksville, PA. It appears it was indeed an actually flight, but whether or not there were real passengers boarding a commercial flight 93 is altogether a different story. Ever heard the saying, let sleeping bones lie undisturbed? One possible reason why some in the family are so adamant that the grave lie undisturbed, and he remains where he is, is because it is possible there is nothing in his grave but an empty coffin. Just an idea, but think we should consider all possibilities here. As I honestly have my doubts that Todd Beamer has one foot in the grave. (It has been reported and accepted that all that was left of Todd Beamer, the letsroll 93 guy, and all that was found was a foot, which was of course buried. ) But there again, I doubt if his grave were exhumed that anything would be found, and if anything was found, I think it highly likely the DNA would show it wasn't Todd Beamer." Denver Post KEN CARYL — Sandy Dahl arrives wearing pilot's wings on the lapel of her black dress jacket. Her hair is neatly composed. Her mascara is done just so. She is ready to tell the story of the saddest moment in her life yet again so that you will understand why her husband, Jason, is an overlooked national hero. This has become her life's calling since Jason's plane — United Flight 93, on which he was the captain — crashed Sept. 11, 2001, in an empty Pennsylvania field. The plane went down, Sandy reminds you, as crew members and passengers fought to keep terrorists from flying it into the U.S. Capitol or the White House. She has told the story a hundred times now — the unofficial spokeswoman for the grief and pride of the Flight 93 families. She does not cry. At least not here. "They did what would almost never be asked of anyone," Sandy says. "I want to make sure history is written." Sandy and Jason's history started on a flight to Seattle. Sandy, a flight attendant, and Jason worked the trip, then talked into the evening at the hotel. Thus began an airport-hopping courtship. Sandy would fly into a new city — and there would be Jason, surprising her at the gate with flowers, gifts, homemade cookies. Eventually, Sandy moved to Denver, and they married and moved into a house in Ken Caryl that Jason set about renovating. And then came the Tuesday in September. Jason was in Newark, set to fly to San Francisco. Sandy was at home. The TV began showing pictures of the attacks on the World Trade Center. When the reports shifted to Flight 93, to a black hole in the Pennsylvania countryside, Sandy's mind froze. She stood in her pajamas, looking at the television but not seeing. If this is a plane crash, she thought, where is the plane? Confused and afraid, she began calling Jason's phone. Voicemail. Hi, you've reached Jason. Again. Hi, you've reached Jason. Again. Hi, you've reached Jason. A friend at United called and confirmed what her mind could not yet grasp. Jason's plane was lost. Life then moved in fast-forward. Friends called. Family called. United employees in company uniform stood in her foyer. Reporters knocked at her door. It wasn't until after the rush of memorials and condolences subsided that Sandy realized what it all meant. "I had this big house that wasn't finished," she remembers. "And I was alone." Six months after the attacks, Sandy was dragging the trash to the curb when she glanced up and stopped. New life — the first buds of daffodils Jason had secretly planted the previous summer along the driveway — was emerging. With friends and neighbors, Sandy established a scholarship fund in Jason's honor. The grants go to help young pilots pay for their education. The first year, it was just one scholarship. This year, it was three, $5,000 apiece. The foundation — the Captain Jason Dahl Scholarship Fund — plans to hold a large fundraising gala and golf tournament in the next year to raise money for even more scholarships.. She started giving speeches about her experience and the heroism of those on Flight 93, including three she plans to give today at Mile Hi Church in Lakewood. People need to remember what happened, she thought. They need to know how hard the passengers and crew fought. After federal authorities permitted Flight 93 families to listen to the plane's cockpit audio recording, Sandy stepped forward when allowed to tell reporters the tape confirmed what happened. The plane's crew and passengers fought back. She knows in her heart she heard Jason on the tape struggling with hijackers; she knows he would never let his plane become a weapon. He was a hero — they all were. "It's an unusually wonderful thing they did, their self-sacrifice," Sandy says of the people aboard Flight 93. But, for Sandy, this role of spokeswoman is a difficult honor because it means the events that took the love of her life are never far from her mind. At times, she grinds her teeth for no reason. Some nights, she awakens from nightmares. Counselors have told her she has post-traumatic stress disorder. She doesn't plan to be at the Flight 93 memorial today. "Normally, people have a memorial, and it's behind them then," she says. "This is never going away." But Sandy won't give up on her mission.
For the interview for this article, she agrees to bring a collection of Jason's things recovered after the crash, the better to give a sense of who he was even if they remind her of the horror of his last moments.
Here are his keys, some twisted and broken. His passport, scorched. His logbook, charred and brittle. But two small items that don't belong in this group make Sandy pause. They are a note from Jason that Sandy found one night after returning home from a particularly grueling trip, along with a photograph. The picture shows strips of tape on the wood floor of their home — each running off in a different direction. Pick a lane, Jason tells Sandy in the note. One leads to a homemade dessert, for instance. One to a drawn bubble bath. The choice is hers. Sandy stands still, reading the note from top to bottom, every word. She looks at the photo, holding it close to study the details. Her eyes sparkle brighter and brighter. And in that moment, there is no attack, no loss, no sorrow, no duty. There is just Sandy and her husband and the life they shared together. "Who couldn't marry the man?" she beams. Comments
TOO BAD BOEING DON'T MAKE AIRLINERS OUT OF INDESTRUCTABLE PASSPORT MATERIAL...
![]() Sandy Dahl gets "incentive flight" in military fighter jet for "job well done" May 2, 2011 DENVER (CBS4) – Notes were placed at the memorial in Shanksville, Penn. where United Flight 93 crashed on Sept. 11. That’s the flight passengers and crew members brought down before it reached its intended target. Forty people died, including Colorado pilot Jason Dahl. CBS’s Kathy Walsh talked Dahl’s widow, Sandy Dahl. She said she’s relieved. Sandy said she has suffered post traumatic stress disorder following Jason’s death. That day changed her life forever. She’s glad that after nearly 10 years Osama bin Laden has finally been stopped. “I didn’t sleep much last night,” she said. Sandy said she was shocked to learn bin Laden was dead. It was news she’d hoped for ever since Jason died. “I was afraid it would be a picture of him on his death bed being fanned and fed grapes and all of his wives and children around,” Sandy said. “I was afraid that would be the ending that he would die a hero in his people’s eyes, but he died in a way I think is appropriate.” Sandy calls Jason a hero and bin Laden a terrible coward — sheer evil. “He trained people to do hateful things that he didn’t do himself.” She’s happy the al Qaeda leader can’t hurt anyone else, but she’s still sad. “It doesn’t make it any easier because it doesn’t bring Jason back.” She’s still worried about terrorism. “It doesn’t make it any easier because I know there are more out there ready to pick up where he left off.” Sandy is especially concerned about the upcoming 10 year anniversary of Sept. 11. “(We should be) praying for our safety, praying for our president’s, praying for our military everyday and being diligent. We need to not just relax and forget this happened because that’s what they wait for.” Sandy devotes much of her time these days to the Cpt. Jason Dahl Scholarship Fund to help students pay for commercial flight school. She said on the Sept. 11 anniversary this year she will be holding a fundraiser in Colorado. She will not go to the scene of the crash in Pennsylvania.
Comments Was Sandy Dahl murdered to shut her up? Or was her assignment in Operation Northwoods concluded, after hyping the fake raid on the alleged "Bin Laden's Mummified Corpse Compound" that killed all the Navy SEALS when their chopper exploded (dead men tell no Truth), and she wanted to live out her retirement with a new identity (her real identity), with or without her fake "husband". Or just an airhead stewardess who committed suicide? Stewardesses make great spies BTW. Or another murder disguised as suicide, like Dick "Tater" Cheney's DC Madam, or Robert F Kennedy Jr's wife Mary? Other wives of 9/11 airline pilots were violently murdered (Wendy Burlingame), especially after demanding Communist Dictator Hussein Obama Soetoro reopen the 9/11 investigation (Beverly Eckert).
Jason Dahl lived in Littleton Colorado, where the US Govt massacred the Christian students at Columbine High School Hell, then sheriff deputies shot survivors trying to escape the jewish gunmen locked inside the school. The 2 official jewish gunmen were sons of an FBI agent and US Air Force officer, while other gunmen in the jewish Trench Coat Mafia were never prosecuted. The same coroner in Sandy Dahl's suspicious death was coroner of Columbine who covered up police shooting students as they tried to escape the gunmen.
Littleton is near Denver, where the "New World Airport" has genocidal murals promoting a Communist Fascist Police State, with hidden "underground facilities".
In 2011, the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) moved its headquarters for National Resources Division "domestic operations" from Langley, Virginia to Denver, Colorado. The Denver suburb of Aurora is home to the Aerospace Data Facility. Located inside Buckley Air Force Base, and is the major U.S. technical downlink for intelligence satellites operated by the Department of Defense, the National Security Agency (NSA) and the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO). About 70 miles away, the U.S. Northern Command, based at Peterson Air Force Base, in Colorado Springs, is tasked with "homeland" defense and has been increasing its domestic intelligence work.

Christopher Bollyn SOMERSET COUNTY, Pennsylvania - Three years after the events of 9-11, half of the residents of New York City believe U.S. leaders had foreknowledge and "consciously failed" to act to prevent the disasters, while two in three want a new investigation of the "still unanswered questions." In the first survey of public opinion about allegations of U.S. government complicity and covering-up of the events of 9-11, a Zogby International poll found that fewer than two in five New Yorkers believe the official 9-11 Commission "answered all of the important questions about what actually happened on September 11th." One in two New York City residents say that senior government officials "knew in advance that attacks were planned on or around September 11, 2001, and that they consciously failed to act," according to the poll of August 24-26, 2004. More than 66 percent called for a new investigation, by Congress or Elliot Spitzer, New York's Attorney General, to resolve the "still unanswered questions." "I think these numbers show that most New Yorkers are now fed up with the silence, and that politicians trying to exploit 9-11 do so at their peril," W. David Kubiak, executive director of 911truth.org, one of the groups that commissioned the poll said. "The 9-11 case is not closed and New York's questions are not going away." The New York Times, on the other hand, told puzzled readers in its lead editorial on September 11, 2004 that it's possible to know what happened on 9-11 "without knowing what happened." "In the three years since 9-11, we've begun to understand that it's possible to know what happened without knowing what happened," the editorial began. "Some of what we need to know publicly has been provided by the report of the 9-11 commission. Other answers are lacking." 9-11 being "a central event in this nation's history," the editorial concluded: "It's important that we who live most immediately in its shadow press hard to learn everything that can be learned about that day and to make sure that nothing is allowed to fade into the world of the publicly unknowable." The New York Times efforts, however, did not include sending a reporter to either of the two recent 9-11 conferences addressing the unanswered questions held on Broadway in downtown Manhattan. The first event, "The 9-11 Citizen's Commission: The Omissions Hearings," was held Sept. 9 at Symphony Space on Broadway. The six-hour conference was chaired by former Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-Ga.) and brought together panels of experts who presented new evidence and raised questions about the official version of events. The second event, "Confronting the Evidence: 9-11 and The Search for Truth," was held at the Manhattan Center Ballroom during the evening of Sept. 11. Having participated in both conferences, I asked the New York Times, which says it should "press hard to learn everything that can be learned about that day," if they had covered the 9-11 conferences. The paper confirmed they had not covered either event. While the Times carried 9-11 stories during the days leading up to the third anniversary, their reporting failed to ask critical questions. For example, in a Sept. 10 article entitled "Falling Bodies" the fate of more than 1,000 people trapped in the twin towers above the levels impacted by the planes is discussed without mentioning the possibility of rescue by helicopter - or the fact that the doors to the roof had been locked. A CITIZEN'S EFFORTS Both Manhattan events were sponsored by a well-heeled citizen named Jimmy Walter, who has dedicated one-tenth of his net worth to bring attention to the yet unanswered questions of 9-11. Walter told me he is spending $250,000 to bring public attention to the official cover-up of 9-11. Walter said that he had only realized that something was seriously wrong with the government's version of events after having seeing Painful Questions, a book and video about 9-11, which was like "an epiphany," he said. Before that "epiphany," Walter said he had believed that 9-11 had been "a sin of omission; not commission." "I know that explosives had been used," Walter said about the destruction of the twin towers. Told that the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith had attacked this writer for an article about eyewitness evidence of explosions in the towers immediately after 9-11, Walter said: "Mossad is in it up to their necks." Walter, 57, described himself as a "Bush clone." The son of a millionaire, Walter graduated cum laude from a prestigious prep school and the University of North Carolina. Like Bush, Walter said he served in the Air National Guard in Florida and found the regulation that allowed him to skip out the last two years. After bouts of cocaine and alcohol abuse, Walter said he "found the truth." "I want to do something significant," Walter said. And bringing public attention to the unanswered questions about 9-11 is the best way to do that, he said. Walter recently purchased full-page ads in Reader's Digest, Business Week, INC., and New Yorker. When 9-11 "activist" and conference "advisor" Nicolas Levis tried to steer the second conference away from discussion of the evidence, security guards removed a hysterical Levis from the theatre. I was then asked to join the second panel, which discussed the physical evidence, with author Webster G. Tarpley and engineer Jeff King. Both Tarpley and King agree that the towers were demolished in a crime that employed both conventional and exotic technologies. I then traveled to Somerset County to look into some of the questions surrounding United Airlines Flight 93, which allegedly turned over and crashed in a refilled strip mine between Lambertsville and Shanksville, taking 44 lives with it. Many local residents believe that the plane was shot down, which they say would explain why parts of the plane and its contents were found strewn over a large area. One question is what happened to the physical wreckage of the plane? "There was no plane," Ernie Stull, mayor of Shanksville, told German television at the official "crash" site in March 2003: "Yes. My sister and a good friend of mine were the first ones here," Stull said. "They were standing on a street corner in Shanksville talking. Their car was nearby, so they were the first here - and the fire department came. Everyone was puzzled, because the call had been that a plane had crashed. But there was no plane." "They had been sent here because of a crash but there was no plane?" the reporter asked. "No. Nothing. Only this hole," Stull said pointing to a smoldering hole shaped like the corner of a square. When I spoke with Mayor Stull, he explained that he had personally visited the crash site, "a day or two later." Nena Lensbouer, who had prepared lunch for the workers at the scrap yard overlooking the crash site was one of the first people to see the smoking crater. I spoke with Lensbouer at her home. She told me that the hole was only 5-6 feet deep and smaller than the 24-foot trailer in her front yard. She described hearing "an explosion like an atomic bomb" - not a crash. Lensbouer called 911 and stayed on the line as she ran across the reclaimed land of the former strip mine to within 15 feet of the smoking crater. Lensbouer told me she did not see any evidence of a plane then or at any time during the duration of the excavation at the site, an effort that reportedly recovered 95 percent of the plane and 10 percent of the human remains. While specific details vary, the explanation for the disappearance of the plane is that the reclaimed land acted like a liquid and absorbed the aircraft, which is said to have impacted at between 450 and 600 mph. This explanation is also used to explain why there was only a brief explosion with one short-lived smoke cloud, not unlike a bomb blast. "I never saw that smoke," Paula Long, an eyewitness, told me. Long ran "immediately" after hearing the crash but did not see the cloud of smoke caught in the now famous photograph by Valencia McClatchey. "It liquefied," Bob Leverknight, an active member of the Air National Guard and correspondent with Somerset's Daily American, told me about how the wreck and much of the fuel disappeared. One of the massive engines, Leverknight said, however, "bounced off the ground" and was found in the woods. It has been reported that a wing and engine were found more than one mile from the crash site. Jim Svonavec, whose company worked at the site and provided excavation equipment, told me that the recovery of the engine "at least 1,800 feet into the woods," was done solely by FBI agents using his equipment.
