9/11 Questions?

Question

Why do so many people here always respond to questions about 9/11 as a "conspiracy theory" ? is the mantra taught by FOX?
FTW - October 9, 2001 – Although uniformly ignored by the mainstream U.S. media, there is abundant and clear evidence that a number of transactions in financial markets indicated specific (criminal) foreknowledge of the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. In the case of at least one of these trades -- which has left a $2.5 million prize unclaimed -- the firm used to place the “put options” on United Airlines stock was, until 1998, managed by the man who is now in the number three Executive Director position at the Central Intelligence Agency.
Between September 6 and 7, the Chicago Board Options Exchange saw purchases of 4,744 put options on United Airlines, but only 396 call options… Assuming that 4,000 of the options were bought by people with advance knowledge of the imminent attacks, these “insiders” would have profited by almost $5 million.

- On September 10, 4,516 put options on American Airlines were bought on the Chicago exchange, compared to only 748 calls. Again, there was no news at that point to justify this imbalance;… Again, assuming that 4,000 of these options trades represent “insiders,” they would represent a gain of about $4 million.

- [The levels of put options purchased above were more than six times higher than normal.]

- No similar trading in other airlines occurred on the Chicago exchange in the days immediately preceding Black Tuesday.

- Morgan Stanley Dean Witter & Co., which occupied 22 floors of the World Trade Center, saw 2,157 of its October $45 put options bought in the three trading days before Black Tuesday; this compares to an average of 27 contracts per day before September 6. Morgan Stanley’s share price fell from $48.90 to $42.50 in the aftermath of the attacks. Assuming that 2,000 of these options contracts were bought based upon knowledge of the approaching attacks, their purchasers could have profited by at least $1.2 million. Merrill Lynch & Co., with headquarters near the Twin Towers, saw 12,215 October $45 put options bought in the four trading days before the attacks; the previous average volume in those shares had been 252 contracts per day [a 1200% increase!]. When trading resumed, Merrill’s shares fell from $46.88 to $41.50; assuming that 11,000 option contracts were bought by “insiders,” their profit would have been about $5.5 million.

- European regulators are examining trades in Germany’s Munich Re, Switzerland’s Swiss Re, and AXA of France, all major reinsurers with exposure to the Black Tuesday disaster. [FTW Note: AXA also owns more than 25% of American Airlines stock making the attacks a “double whammy” for them.]

Someone had foreknowledge of the attacks. In the weeks leading up to 9/11 someone made a series of investments that would have paid off in huge profits because of the attacks. This is well documented and undisputed. This person specifically invested in the two airliners used in the attacks, anticipating windfall profits from any drop in the stock prices of these companies. This is solid evidence that at least one person in the United States had detailed information that something bad was going to happen to the specific airlines that were to be used in the attack.

We have been told that the person who made these investments never claimed the profits. We are expected to believe that this explains why his or her identity is unavailable. This is absolutely untrue. This is not an instance in which someone was waiting to pick up a package at an airport locker. This is a case of a financial institution processing an investment transaction for an individual. This CAN NOT BE PERFORMED ANONYMOUSLY! The identity of this person who had foreknowledge of the attack is know and this person’s identity is being protected by our government and this is a fact! Period, end of story.

WHO MADE THE INVESTMENT? Identify this person and you have someone who very probably had detailed foreknowledge of the events. The fact that the profits were never collected is even more suspicious and incriminating. The fact that the identity of this person remains unknown is even more suspicious. The only possible conclusion is that this person is known to the government and that his or her identity is being protected.

There has been a clear and concerted cover up regarding the person who tried to profit from events he or she knew were coming. The people who could easily clear this up, but who chose to close any further investigation into the matter are not underlings. They are officials who answer directly to the President of the United States. Check.

what exactly do you not agree with?
the whole point is your goverment ,the FCC...knows who this person is and will not release it........what the hell do you not agree with? didn,t you read all of this?

Answer 1

Because they are convinced that their government is their sworn protector. That they are somehow in debt to their government. They don't seem to understand that the government is supposed to serve us.

Besides, the conspiracy theories have far more evidence than any of the official stories have anymore.

Which means, going on probability, there is a greater chance that the conspiracy theorists are right and the people who believe what the government has been saying are wrong.

Why is it so hard to believe that people would try and run america and screw us all over?

Nero did it. Hitler did it. Castro did it, saddam did it. Why wouldn't our government do it?

It's pretty obvious that governments are more often evil and bad than they are good.

Read up on history. Read up on conspiracy theories. Then read up on the official stories and see which ones make more sense.

Answer 2

First off you need to check out the 9/11 myth book that just came out. Both of these myths are addressed there. Debunking 9/11 Myths: Why Conspiracy Theories Can't Stand Up to the Facts 1. The pilots did not just practice on Cessna simulators. They had flight time in Cessnas and other small aircraft, but their simulator time was spend in 747s. It does not take much to program and set in coordinates on a 747, and crashing is a lot easier hand landing and taking off. They didn't even need to fly in bad weather! It was quite easy for the terrorists to control the plane. Oh, and also... only one terrorist per flight was actually trained to do the flying. The other 3 were there to secure the flight. 2. You are right that it does seem oddly coincidental that such an incident would occur during a presidency that espoused such animosity toward the Mid-East not too long ago. However, a lot of people say a lot of things, and we seem to have selective memories when it comes to these things. I am not advocating any party here but I would be good money democrats have said many things about the Mid-East that they too would regret had this terrible plot unfolded during their tenure. It is too easy to cast stones.

Answer 3

First off, let me clear up something. I DO NOT watch FOX - they piss me off greatly.

When I have used the term "conspiracy theory", I use it in the sense that what you are stating is a "theory", which means you have something that could be, but you have to prove it. As for the word "conspiracy", it means people working together. You know, a "co-conspirator". So the term is not meant as a degrading or dismissing term. It is a term that defines what you are saying. So sit down Alice.

Secondly, anyone can make anything look however they would like by stating certain facts, and not others. I could look at everything and "prove" that aliens were responsible for 9/11. The "facts" you state are very interesting, and they deserve to be explored. But until you can tie all of it into a neat little package, all you will have is a "theory".

So, in closing, there are a lot of people out there that will agree with you. And there are many more that won't. I do not agree, and it is mostly because I would like to think that even George W. Bush has a shred of humanity, and would not kill over 3,000 of his fellow countrymen for power, prestigue, and/or money. Maybe I am wrong. Until you can lay it all out for me with the actual proof (not just typing it, or reading someone else's words, but putting the items right in front of me for me to view), I will not buy it. That is my right as a human of free will (which is why I have never looked to anyone else to make my mind up for me. I am a person that demands indisputable proof of something before I will agree/disagree.).

Good luck with your thoughts, and please remember to define a word or phrase before you become "insulted" by it. Have a nice day. See ya around.:)

Answer 4

Well if such a person did exist, I would assume that they would just as soon have someone fill out a next of kin application and claim the money for them. Not that that is whats happening.

Answer 5

Your question is to long...I got tired on the way down...Sorry...
