A History of 9/11 and Related Events

 

As part of a bigger intelligence effort, plans had been drafted during the period when President Bush’s father was CIA director

for a clandestine attack on the WTC buildings that would be blamed on the Arabs.  This was an update of a previous plan by

the military/ intelligence agencies, Operation Northwood, to blame a terrorist attack in the U.S. on the Cubans as a pretext to invade Cuba. 

The Project for a New American Century (PNAC), of which many of the top Administration officials are members had drafted a

document that expressed a need to gain control or access to the oil fields in Iraq and central Asia as well as to militarize space and

gain dominance of space so that no country could threaten U.S. plans and economic agenda.  The members had also stated that

an event such as Pearl Harbor might be needed to convince the American public to be willing to significantly increase military

spending enough to carry out these plans. Members of the administration had supported efforts to meet these goals including

planning attacks on Afghanistan and Iraq, prior to 9/11, and many of these goals were acted on immediately following 9/11. 

 

It had been well known since the mid 1990s by Administration officials that al-Qaeda had made specific plans to use hijacked

airline planes to attack the World Trade Center and Pentagon.  The operatives who were convicted of the 1993 WTC bombing

had specific plans for a future attack by hijacked airliners (Project Bojinka) and terrorists who were in custody at the time of 9/11

told the Administration of imminent plans to put the plan into effect. Airliners have been used to attack political targets previously

and plans to do so have also been aborted by officials.  It was known that there were many dozens of warnings, some very specific

as to targets and timing, that an attack was planned on the WTC and Pentagon in September 2001 and evidence that many Administration

officials and officials from other countries were aware of them.  This is in the public record. Several FBI investigators have stated they

had specific knowledge of the plan before it happened and that they told other Administration officials of the plans. Specifically

Attorney General Ashcroft was warned by the FBI to not fly on commercial planes just prior to 9/11 and Ashcroft and several

Pentagon officials avoided flying or canceled plans for commercial flights the week of 9/11. At a briefing to President Bush and

administration officials in August 2001, a memo from the UK stated that there were imminent plans for an attack on the U.S. using

airplanes as weapons. This was one of many such specific warnings.  It is in the public record that many people in many countries

 had prior warning of 9/11 events.  U.S. military and intelligence agencies have staged war games several times in recent years for

dealing with airplane attacks on buildings including the Pentagon.  There were such war games involving military and intelligence

agencies taking place on Sept 11, 2001 regarding use of commercial airliners to attack buildings including the Pentagon at the

precise time that the 9/11 events occurred.

         

 

 

 

1.    Operation Northwoods, a plot by U.S. intelligence/military for a terrorist plot carried out in the U.S. to be blamed on Cuba as a

pretext to overthrow Castro,  was updated when George Bush was CIA Director to take out the WTC buildings using airplanes and

blame the event on Arabs as a part of a larger intelligence effort.   [http://suetheterrorists.net/]

2.     1995-  A plan by al-Qaeda operatives(including Khalid Shaikh Mahammed and Ramsi Yousef)  involved in the 1993 attack on the

WTC buildings was discovered on computer disks, involving using commercial airplanes in terrorist attacks and including plans to

attack the WTC buildings and the Pentagon, was discovered by U.S. and Philippine intelligence agents resulting in conviction and

jailing of Yousef and others. Its code name was Project Bojinka and the plan and 9/11 was carried out exactly 5 years after Yousef

was convicted on Sept 11, 1996,  at such time Yousef again discussed plans for carrying out Project Bojinka.

3.     1997- Book by former National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski (The Grand Chessboard: American Primacy and Geostrategic

Imperatives) portrays control of the Eurasian land mass and its oil assets as the key to world power.

4.     late 1990s- PNAC, a group of elites many of which are in the Bush administration, draft Rebuilding Americas Defenses: Strategy, Forces,

 and Resources for a New Century”- with a plan to gain control of Iraq and mid-Asia oil assets and militarize space to insure dominance of

U.S. interests and investments.

5.     late 1990s up to 9/11- members of PNAC discuss the need for a new Pearl Harbor event to convince the U.S. public to greatly increase

military spending to carry out the expensive initiatives proposed in Vision for 2020.

6.     late 1990s- A consortium of companies and interests(CentGas) dominated by U.S. and Saudi Arabia(Unocal, Delta Gas,etc.) make plans

for a major Central Asia Gas Pipeline through Afghanistan and Pakistan to get market the vast mid-Asia oil reserves.

7.     The dominant military leader and most popular leader in Afghanistan(Masood) opposes the plans of CentGas and sides with another

alternative consortium led by South American interests.

8.     U.S. which had backed Islamic militants active in Afghanistan and Chesnea fighting against Russia with huge amounts of money

and supplies through the Pakistani ISI supports Taliban as an alternative to Masood in Afghanistan that might side with U.S. plans for the CAGP.

9.     2000-  U.S. negotiators warn Taliban that if they don’t support the U.S. plans for the CAGP that a U.S. supported attack on

Afghanistan is likely by Sept 2001. Plans were made to carry out such an attack.

10. Taliban offer to give up bin Laden group for extradition in return for more economic benefits to Taliban from the CAGP.

11. A plan that appears to have been devised and or supported jointly by al-Qaeda and CIA and Pakistani ISI is carried out

assassinating Masood on 9/9/2001.

12. year leading up to 9/11-  The U.S. administration and intelligence services are deluged with specific warnings of imminent

attacks using airplanes on significant U.S. targets from captured al-Qaeda and Taliban operatives, foreign intelligence agencies, and FBI agents.   

13. week prior to 9/11-    the leader of the Pakistani ISI(Gen. Ahmad) who was the paymaster of some of the money that supported al-Qaeda

operatives such as  Mohamed Atta was in the U.S..  His stay included meetings with U.S. intelligence and political officials.

14. 9/11 -  Military/Intelligence war games initiated including plans for attacking WTC and Pentagon buildings using commercial airliners.  

It appears that some commercial airliners may have been part of the games, some have suggested that commercial airline flights were part

of the games,  and some of the 9/11 flights may have been a part of the games.  

15.  7:59 to 10:06 am,  9/11    attacks on WTC buildings, Pentagon, and Fl 93 crashes in Pennsylvania.   Inexplicably, though the FAA and

officials are aware of “hijackings” and course changes, and all commercial flights are ordered  down at 9:20,  the public is told none of

the planes were intercepted by the U.S. military.

16. soon after 9/11,  Administration announces that the attack was carried out by 19 al-Qaeda operatives who hijacked and flew the planes. 

17. Evidence of who they were appeared through miraculous circumstances,  though later it appears that several of those who were named

as being hijackers are still alive and claim that their names should be taken off the list of hijackers.  Some suggest there is much evidence

that the other “hijackers” who died that day including Atta appeared to have U.S. intelligence or military support during their stay in the

U.S. regarding passports and flight training.   

18. Some suggest that the “hijackers” appear to have had help and may have thought they were involved in an operation different than

what actually occurred- perhaps even thought they were part of the war games.  Also that some of the supposed pilots did not have

sufficient training and skills to carry out the events of that day as they occurred in the opinion of the majority of independent pilots on record.

19. 2004-   Testimony of officials and military leaders involved in the 9/11 events and other evidence in the 9/11 Commission Hearings

strongly supports complicity by Pentagon and/or military officials;  but the 9/11 Commission Report publishes a new timeline and

explanation of events that attempts to absolve official complicity- but ignores and conflicts with the majority of credible testimony

and evidence.                            [www.flcv.com/offcompl.html]
