9/11 Series PART II Conspiracies

This is Part II of this series, looking back at the events of 9/11, and the consequences of that devestating day on America, and the World. As I mentioned yesterday, I have not really given it much deep thought for a very long time. I guess I did not want to revisit something so damaging to our country. I also look at the world around us and cannot help but be reminded of that old story For Want Of A Nail:
"You remember how it goes: ‘For want of a nail, a shoe was lost; for want of a shoe, a horse was lost; for want of a horse, a message was lost; for want of a message, a battle was lost, for want of a battle, a war was lost; for want of war, a kingdom was lost; and all for the loss of a nail.’
"Corny as that sounds, the fact of the matter is that history does hang on such little things as much as on any grand design. So do most large tragedies, which have their origins in tiny flaws unperceived at the time. What we, call a ‘catastrophe’ usually starts with a "nail".

If the Twin Towers did fall on their own, can it really be as simple as the fact that small design flaws, like their "just" being drywall on the stairwells, that "blew" off with the impact and basically sealed the doom of everyone above the crash line. It seems that the more you look at this event, the more questions need to be addressed, that were not adequately answered, by the "official" explanation. I chose the Wikipedia Official Version yesterday, as I found it provided not only a highly readable account, but also provided links and reference points for further inquiry. Therefore, Part II, is the Wikipedia Conspiracies complilation, as it covers pretty much all of the "conspiracies" that have been put forward over the years, and it also has links and reference points for anyone looking ever deeper into the mysteries, and "truth" of what happened on 9/11.

A variety of conspiracy theories question the mainstream account of the September 11, 2001 attacks against the United States. Many of these theories state that individuals in the government of the United States knew of the impending attacks and refused to act on that knowledge. Some go further and state that the attacks were a false flag operation carried out by high-level officials in the U.S. government. The suspected motives were to use the attacks as a pretext to justify overseas wars, to facilitate increased military spending, and to restrict domestic civil liberties.

Many of the theories have been voiced by members of the 9/11 Truth Movement[1], a name adopted by some organizations and individuals who question the mainstream account of the attacks. Some 9/11 Truth Movement members question the accuracy of the mainstream account of the attacks, and they are committed to further investigation while others claim that the collapse of the World Trade Center was the result of a controlled demolition and/or that United Airlines Flight 93 was shot down.[2] Some also contend that a commercial airliner did not crash into the Pentagon; this position is debated within the Truth Movement, many of whom believe that AA Flight 77 did crash there, but that it was allowed to do so via an effective stand down of the military.[3]

Published reports by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology rejected the controlled demolition hypothesis. Final scientific reports by structural engineers regarding the collapse of WTC 7 are still pending.[4][5] The community of civil engineers generally accepts the mainstream account that the impacts of jets at high speeds in combination with subsequent fires, rather than controlled demolition, led to the collapse of the Twin Towers.[6]


9/11 Series PART II Conspiracies

9/11 Series PART I

This is the day that we shall begin taking a long delayed look back at 9/11, and the tragedies that have come about, because of that fateful day. As I have been looking through numerous websites, articles, and books, I have found this to be one of the hardest things I have ever written about, because it brings up so many conflicting feelings.

I think I am probably pretty typical (of the people who believed the official version) i.e. on September 11th, 2001. You Know "Osama bin-Laden's "boys", hijacked four airliners and proceeded to fly three of them into buildings, thus attacking "The Great Satan" America, as was their mission". I know how I felt as I watched the planes hit the Twin Towers, and the collapse of those Towers. It was the most terrible thing that I have ever watched on Live T.V., and I knew that our world would never be the same.

I threw my allegiance behind those who wanted revenge, and backed Bush's plan to remove the Taliban from power in Afghanistan, and hunt down Osama bin-Laden, and kill him for his attack. I had a young lady friend, who was a pilot out of New York, and I was unable to reach her for nearly a week, as the system was in such bad shape, so much of my early anger was misplaced worry about her safety. I even remember hearing stories of muslims being attacked and was glad that they were, I even did the whole boycott France thing, when they didn't back our war plan, and called French Fries~~Freedom Fries~~just like O'Reilly wanted us too!!

I never did really support a war in Iraq, and couldn't understand why V.P. Cheney and President Bush maade every effort to equate 9/11 with Iraq. Now I did support removing Saddam, but I felt that it should have been done when he was gassing the Kurds~but at that time he was Reagan's "Buddy", so he was allowed to butcher at will.

I have always believed that Iraq was merely "payback" for Bush senior having lost the election, after letting Saddam and Iraq, off the hook after we kicked them out of Kuwait, and George junior thought it would be a cakewalk.

Over the years I have watched shows on the Truth of 9/11 and the "Truth of 9/11 conspiracies", and have always come down on the side of the Official Truth. I have a great deal of difficulty in believing in a Giant Government Conspiracy in regards to 9/11, and the downing of the Twin Towers, because frankly, this President cannot even spell conspiracy, let alone be so nimble of mind as to trick us with an "attack" actually perpetrated from within the government, or even a "real" enemy being allowed to attack us, like the supposed foreknowledge of the Pearl Harbor attack by Franklin Roosevelt!!

However, after all the things that we have been lied to by this President and this administration, I have come to believe that we need a completely impartial Outside Investigation into the events leading up to 9/11, and the events that transpired because of that Tragic Day.

The "Official" version doesn't seem as rock solid as it once did, and we are still close enough to the event, that the "Truth" is out there. It just needs to be gone over by people who have nothing to gain by agreeing with one version or the other. Perhaps we will see a better, more accurate account of 9/11.

I hope that this series~~beginning with the wikipedia "official" version will give you pause to re-examine what you believe, and perhaps move you to sign the petition to have an actual "independent" investigation into this National Tragedy. The scab needs to be picked off, so that there can be true healing!! Thank you for taking the time to read, and check out the available information!!

Bombers Trying To Hit Europe

Just days before the sixth anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks against the United States, European security forces in Germany and Denmark uncovered two terrorist cells that officials said Wednesday were planning massive attacks even more deadly than the bombings in Madrid and London.

For many Europeans, the threat of a major terrorist attack still does not seem an imminent danger. But the round of arrests this week shows that terrorist cells with links to al-Qaeda are stepping up activity in Europe, and that increasingly, the plotters are European-born.

So the clock continues ticking away, as we hold our collective breaths, in anticipation of an attack of some sort occuring on the 9/11 anniversary, so that the terrorists can remind us that they are still not done with us. It sounds like "officially" there is no threat level elevation, but surely there is something in the works, even if they cannot put a finger on a specific plot at the moment.

I was very impressed with this story, and how well the Germans and the Danes, were able to uncover these plots, and stop them with time to spare. Good Job!

I hope that as this deadly anniversary comes and goes, we can all be a little more cautious about where we go, i.e. not being around big crowds of people, and perhaps be wary of unusual or suspicious activities around us, and report them if you see any.

Sorry, not trying to be too paranoid, certainly I am going to be a little more cautious than usual as this anniversary gets here.
