Who was behind the 9/11 attacks?
Dick Cheney admits that they have NOT linked Osama Bin Laden to September 11.
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4646091253...
"So we've never made the case, or argued the case that somehow Osama bin Laden was directly involved in 9/11. That evidence has never been forthcoming." — Dick Cheney March 29, 2006.
"9/11 is not mentioned on Usama Bin Laden's Most Wanted page. He has not been formally indicted and charged in connection with 9/11 because the FBI has no hard evidence connected Bin Laden to 9/11." —FBI agent Rex Tomb, June 6, 2006
"The goal has never been to get Bin Laden." —General Richard Myers, chairman, US Joint Chiefs of Staff
And the so-called 'Confession tapes' of Osama admitting to the attacks have been proven to be fake.
In fact, Osama denies being a part of the attacks.

JDW, well my mom didn't raise an idiot either. I am actually aware of US Government history. Were you aware that the US Government has admitted to running 'Human Radiation Experiments' on thousands of US Citizens and US Soldiers in the past? Over a 30 year period? Now what was you saying?
Government Website detailing human radiation experiments

Our Government gave Plutonium pills to Pregnant Women ....just to measure the effects. They died.. that's the effects.

Government also admits to experimenting on soldiers for a 50 years span.. 40s to 90s. You'd be a fool to believe they're not still doing this.

An estimated 2,973 people were killed in the 9/11 attacks. The death toll at the World Trade Center included 60 police officers and 343 firefighters, 87 passengers aboard American Flight 11, 60 on United Flight 175, and over 2,000 occupants and neighbors of the WTC. The death toll at the Pentagon included 125 people from the Pentagon and 64 passengers on American Flight 77. And 44 people lost their lives on United Flight 93.
Many 9/11 survivors and many 9/11 victim family members have expressed significant criticism of the 9/11 Commission Report. Several even allege government complicity in the terrible acts of 9/11.
The public statements of many survivors contradict the Commission Report. And the words and actions of some of the victims on that terrible day are in conflict with the Commission Report.
Listed on the website below are statements by more than 200+ 9/11 survivors, victims and family members that contradict or are critical of the 9/11 Commission Report. Their collective voices give credibility to the claim that the 9/11 Commission Report is tragically flawed. In addition to the victim and family accounts there are also hundreds of statements from Ph.D professors and engineers that also contradict the 9/11 Commission Report.
These individuals cannot be simply dismissed as irresponsible believers in some 9/11 conspiracy theory. Their statements are based on their intimate familiarity with and intense study of the events of 9/11. Their criticism of the Commission Report is not inherently irresponsible or illogical, In fact, it is based on their desire to honor the victims of that terrible day by finding the truth and bringing to justice those responsible for these terrible acts.

Everyone (the mainstream media, Obama and the US government) is making a big deal and going after Ahmadinejad for his statements on 9/11, but they didn't say a word when the highly respected former president of Italy said exactly the same thing. Former Italian President Francesco Cossiga, who revealed the existence of Operation Gladio, has told Italy’s oldest and most widely read newspaper that the 9-11 terrorist attacks were run by the CIA and Mossad, and that this was common knowledge among global intelligence agencies. In what translates awkwardly into English, Cossiga told the newspaper Corriere della Sera: “All the [intelligence services] of America and Europe…know well that the disastrous attack has been planned and realized from the Mossad, with the aid of the Zionist world in order to put under accusation the Arabic countries and in order to induce the western powers to take part … in Iraq [and] Afghanistan.”
- Ring of UranusLv 51 decade ago
It's a simple question, but like most of the simple ones will have an extremely complex answer.
It may be simpler to ask 'who wasn't behind the 9/11 attacks'
Start with ... 'Who had the most to gain from the towers coming down / Who had the most to lose from them staying up'?
The best quote for bringing the towers up to legal safety standards was around $1 billion and they were haemoraging money for the port authority as they were for the most part empty and were destined to stay that way as modern communication technology made them relativly obsolete (and yet a team was sent in the weekend prior to the attacks during a complete blackout, including security, during which teams of 'engineers' installed miles of heavy duty 'cable' ... following which the sniffer dogs were taken off of the security team)
The new leaseholder made double the insurance payout from the collapse as it was found to be 2 seperate incidents, rather than have the potential cost of having them demolished 'properly' and bring the area to a standstill for months and all the relevent HAZMAT movement enforcements to pay for, rather than have the coummunity pay for it through the citys services, charitable donations. And of course their lives ... kerching!
The leaders of the government, who also work for the largest Oil and Military services industries to benefit from any potential, and highly likely attack on a foriegn nation (as long as it has oil rather than grows poppys) it could show to be culpable, stand to, again make $ billions from the conflict ... kerching!
Blackwater, and the rest of the privatised C.I.A. stand to make $ billions from having the largest mercenary army ever assembled on the planet policing the war zone for years after the President declares the war is over ... kerching!
Bin Laden, a man at best on dialysis living a cave in a mountain who was last seen entering a hospital on 9/10 and has never been seen since, co-ordinated all of those ideas whilst arranging for a war game to blanket the radar at the exact time of the attacks and relieving NATO of one of only six ever built of its jet proppelled drones, which they still can't account for, but has the exact size engine that was hauled away of whatever single engined aircraft (no ... aircraft engines don't disintigrate, 'vapourise' or melt in collisions and explosions) struck the Pentagon ... Our survey said 'uh urr'
Nearest anyone can say and probably will ever know is that it was a conspiricy. That $ billions have changed hands for it, within a community which already has that kind of money, is very closely connected and trusts each other to a degree we could scarcely begin to imagine.
Fear is a strange thing. It will make you believe the worst of a potential enemy rather than distrust those you rely on for maintaining your life, even when it's staring you in the face that those who are being portrayed as your enemies are far from that and are in truth as scared and confused as we are by the people we are getting our 'truth' from.
I know who I'm afraid of. And it isn't Bin Laden

Good question. If, in fact, it was terrorists, they were not alone. They had help from people who have power to control the US government and military and the corporate controlled main stream media.
This link lists the some of the evidence for government complicity. Anyone can do their own homework to verify it.
http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article45...
The theory that the government was merely "negligent" in failing to stop the attack is implausible under any stretch of the imagination. Don't forget, heads didn't' roll for that apparent "negligence".
If people are waiting for the main stream media to advise them about 9/11, they are in for a long wait. If the main stream media ever reported the story, we would not be discussing it here. The government's story wood have completely unraveled September 12, 2001.
Since 9/11 a number of people close to 9/11 have met mysterious deaths. The media doesn't report those deaths either, although they often report mysterious deaths. Seem strange?

Yea it is pretty obvious the whole deal is a sham. One piece of indirect evidence I have may make me sound arrogant but I find it to be very telling. I have a genius IQ. That means my ability to reason and process information has been measured and is far above average. I had the highest SAT score in the history of my high school.
I have noticed that people I know who are noticibaly intelligent and can hold intelligent converstation on a variety of subjects including and in addition to the political debates agree on the practically transparent propaganda the US government puts out. The holes in official stories related to recent conflicts are at least numerous. Even Democratic party loyalists almost seem at concensus that Bush started the Iraq conflict (war or occupation for you synonym nazi sycophants) for the express purpose of getting access to the oil fields.
Let me get this straight socialists because I think this is what you are saying: Bush is inept and an imbecile. Bush has a strong belief in an imaginary being called God who believes in truth and justice. Bush had no idea that the 9/11 attacks were going to happen and was in no way responsible because he is not capable of such evil. Bush started an unrelated war unrighteously condemning hundreds of thousands to death for oil. Bush lies constantly and hates civil liberties. Does that about sum it up? I know you are in almost exact agreement with these statements about Bush Democrats. If you still believe them please reread and think a little more. I may not have the best frame of reference to empathize with you because logic and reason have always come naturally to me.
I have never believed that Bin Laden was responsible. I was aware PRIOR to 9/11 that the US socialists (yes Bush is a socialist, please wake up) were planning terror attacks against US buildings and was planning to blame Islamic radicals and Bin Laden for it. If you don't ever believe anything else I say, believe the statement I just made because it is 100% true.
john w: You have been drinking the kool aid buddy. Good guesses though. Neo-Nazis are NOT right wing. They are 100% left wing and want everyone to think they are right wing. Their symbol the hackenkruetz (which looks similar to the Indian swastika if it were reversed) is actually two S's crossed over eachother symbolizing the Union of socialist factory workers and socialist agrarian peasants of the National Socialist German Workers Party. They are distinctly leftist and devout Democrats who march goose stepping with nearly the entire Democratic party platform. The USSR used to display the hackenkruetz on all their currency prior to their falling out with Germany at which time they changed the SS's (Socialism/Socialism) with the hammer and sickle, also symbolizing the union of factory worker socialists and peasant farmer socialists.

It was an inside job, done with the blessing of the American Government. They gave the orders to bring down the towers, killing all those innocent people inside.
To pull off a stunt like that one, thousands of people would have been involved, and thousands would have known about it before hand. It was planned years in advance. The buildings were brought down by controlled demolitions, not by the planes. Building 7 collapsed without being hit by anything? How did al-CIAda manage to do that?
The towers had been constructed to withstand several planes hitting them at once.
It's amazing that people still don't get this. Why don't they watch some of the great 9/11 films on Google Video?
Are they afraid of the truth?

Silverstein since WTC was a waste of tax payes dollars an accoring to Silverstein an "Eye Burden upon New York" Also it would have been roughly 2 billion of Silvestein's money to remove the asbestos from WTC,
Rockefellar had 2 interests the oil in Afgahanistan, Iraq, and currently Venezula.
Rothschild since Israel wanted Saddam and Al-Queda gone from the region. Even though Al-Queda and Saddam HATE and LOATHE each other. Because Israel cannot attak without splitting an desimating and HOLOCAUSTING the Midle East.
I saw a Global Hawk hiot the Pentagon except for one thing the nose was different. It had a bunker missle style nose. How the shape was it was not US. Since all shapes of Bunker Missles are that of country origin. It looke like it was Israeli.
Like the E-10 J Joint Star which hit WTC wings an bottom point to Israel. Since when items missles, planes, etc has to be different so it can idenentify what country they are from. Even military a civilian plane styles differ. Only a very well trained eye can spot the differences.
It is why they have extreme tests in the militay so they can spot an enemy and/or ally plane/ship/vehicle fast.
Now for the kicker. People are iiots thinking there are SAMs either on White House or Pentagon grounds. There are none. But, when a screw up happens you see a whole entire crew reassigned. Only one ship has FCs in the NAVY reassigned or discharged from the NAVY and some early retirement. The USS Berry. Think it is just a museum think again it is still fully operational.
Every waship in the US NAVY unless they are scrapped are fully operational and can still work. Even the Nautilus is still a fully operational sub. It is why the US NAVY does not like making museums out of their ships. But there are usually FCs and GMs in vicinity if there is an attack.
Propellars are not needed all they nee to do is fire their weapons ordinances. If you ever see there weapons some can still work. All they need to do is turn the power on.
One thing I am surprised on only one Battleship is mothballed and still in peak condition the Missouri. I am surprised that it did not go back in commission.
So who was behind the attacks Silverstein, Rockefellar, and Rothschild all 3 are Zionists. 2 are Israeli which is Silverstein and Rothschild. Rockefellar is Pro-Israeli. And, all of them support Mossad and were the backers of all Mossad agents which wee sping and attacked here in the US, Andd, who benefited the bankers of the International Central Banks and that includes Federal Reseve Bank which assassinated our President, Kennedy.
Your talking a conspiracy which Bush Jr is not even aware of. But, Bush Sr would definatly know who was involved. I am glad Hillary did not win. We would have been on square 1 with another Bush in office.
I believe 9/11 was like the Kennedy assassination. Only high level people in our governemnt knew about it, And, those who wanted out either resigned, forced retirement. And, they whistleblew died.
I now know who the Arabic person was at OK 95 a Mossad Agent,. They were waiting it out and see if they could pull off on destroying WTC. We were prepared for another attack until Bush Jr went into office.
But, for me I cannot wait until we are all dead due to the Ice Age coming up on December 12, 2012, The Sun is going to turn Darkness.
And, John W your Anti-Semetic comment is uncalled for. New York are filled with Zionists, not real Jews. I am a Jew and there are those like me who are Anti-Zionist and Anti-Israel. Think of Zionists as Counterfeit Jews. Those in Israel are counterfeit and like all counterfeit money needs to be destroyed.
The Mossad confessional video.
Fact Usama bin Laden does not wear gold and did he would be classified as a homosexual and you usually have a finger, hand or head chp[[ed off. Look carefully he has a gold ring on right finger. And, he is strictl believer in Islamic Law and would not want to be called a queer and outcasted by Taliban who have killed people for lesser crimes.
Fact Usama bin Laden is left handed and does not write with his right hand at all. In the confessional video he was writing with his right hand. Believe the government read the FBI wanted poster left hand. And, that is not a typo either.
Fact Usama bin Laden is on a dylasis machine and is thin due to kiney failue. Usama bin Laden confessional has a fat overweight bin Laden who looks like he is 5'6 instead of 7'. Usama bin Laden is tall enough to play in the NBA.
The confessional video tape was given to the CLIA, Centeral Lack of Intelligence Agency, by Mossad.
Being Anti-Zionist and Anti-Israel will kill out the Nazi Fourth Reich. Hitler was not a Jew nor Atheist he was a Zionist. And, was going to rebuild the Temple of God, Solomon's Temple in Israel and claim he is The Messiah. If you look at the artifacts Nazis were looking for all keys for the end of the world Revelation. Indiana Jones was not to far off what the Nazis were looking for.
When I went to Israel it felt like I was in Nazi Germany. Gestapos all over the place. An unresentful police force which hate US Citizens. Even us Jews they hate. They want to see us die on their streets. And, kill any peaceful activist who thinks EVERYONE has the right to live. Why is it just Israel??? That is Nazi Germany Propaganda at it's best.
