to FRAG...do you find that acceptable? Why were our defenses down to the point where 4 hijacked planes were flying around for 1 and 1/2 hours unimpeded?

Answer 1

This is addressed by Robert Baer, an ex CIA agent in his book "See No Evil". He worked as a field officer in Middle East and held various other posts within the CIA and watched as the US government (both Republican and Democrat) systematically reigned in the CIA in favour of conducting secret oil deals. Basically experienced officers were replaced by beurocrats whose sole tasks were gathering economic intelligence to assist the major oil companies in exploiting new oil opportunities after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Baer himself passed on intelligence as a Middle East consultant (after he left the CIA) which indicted that a major attack from terorists was in the offing. Basically he got no response. Something he had been gradually accustomed too in the last 10 years of his service.

Read his book. It is amazing how the US government over the 15 years leading up to the attack on 9/11 failed the US people.

Answer 2

911 was an inside job. If anyone looks at the evidence and uses common sense it all becomes very very clear.

People who refuse to accept the fact that the U.S. Government had their hand in the Terror Attacks of 911 are ignorant. It's impossible for Jet fuel or Kerosene to melt iron. Also if the floors collapsed causing a chain reaction it would have taken well over 90 seconds for the buildings to come down. They came down at free fall speed....9 seconds. There is no logical argument here. Explosives were pre-planted in the building. Some will argue that the fires were raging hot inferno’s...however if that was the case then why were there people standing in the holes where the planes impacted waving for help? Their clothes weren’t even burnt.

Here we are talking about the biggest crime scene in the history of the United States...and what did Guilani do? He scooped up all the evidence and got rid of it as fast as he possibly could. Sent overseas to be recycled? I doubt it...my guess is they dumped it all in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.

If people would for one second look at the evidence...it's a common tactic for a country to injure or attack itself and then blame it on the enemy. Then we can go get em. There is even a name for it...it’s called.. “Pretext for Military Intervention” Why doesn’t someone tell me why NORAD didn't scramble any fighters to escort the hijacked planes down? They didn't miss 1, but all 4!! Anytime a commercial airline goes off course without explanation, within 10 minutes, fighter jets are supposed to escort them down. Especially the air space over the Pentagon! Hmmm. How convenient. You think it was because Bush ordered Cheney to take control over NORAD the same morning of the attacks? Did you also know that the WTC changed owners about six months prior to the attacks? Did you know that the buildings were worth more if destroyed than standing? That Larry Silverstein is the man who cashed out on the scam...walking away with billions? Did you know that there was a flurry of activity on Wall Street prior to the attacks, and the majority of the trading was “Put options” on the doomed Airlines stock? Did you know that there were multiple explosions heard inside the buildings from all kinds of firefighters, police officers and witnesses? Did you know that WTC Building 7 fell at approximately 5:30 p.m.? That the building did not suffer any major damage, but it somehow blew up into a fine pile of dust? Does anyone know what propaganda is? Do you know that it is also a well known and effectively used tool for the government to pull the wool over your eyes? Well, don't say we didn't warn you when your asking yourself 5 years from now "How could this happen?" Educate yourself and open your eyes folks. This is real, and there are more than just a couple of us who think so. Go to Google and type in Terror Attacks of 911...have yourself a look at all the choices there are to choose from.

Answer 3

Anyone can get sucker punched! Brenda is a fool-- Have her go down to the nearest city. I have seen photos of i beams that get twisted like pretzels in a 3 story brick building and cars melt in regular car fires STEEL DOES MELT UNDER PRETTY NORMAL FIRE TEMPERATURES ASK A FIREMEN!!! When are these insider morons gonna get a grip they are NOT convincing anyone.

Answer 4

Perhaps the warnings become so numerous and frequent,
warnings begin to fall on deaf ears and Politicians become complacent about security measures.Terrorism in one form or another has slowly infiltrated western societies and
gradually eroded away our sense of safety putting in its place
a fear of bomb attacks,suicide bombers,free radicals any act
of terror that will instill a sense of fear in citizens

Answer 5

So they should have just shut down NYC for a year or two until the time frame of a possible attack was up?

Where does it say that they threatened with an exact date?

Answer 6

The US was very confident that it was not susceptible of being attacked and it was the reason why 9/11 happened.

Answer 7

The US really thought that they were untouchable. Thats why they didnt act on the warnings.

Answer 8

Because Clinton neutered our CIA.

Answer 9

We had a president(President Clinton) who did not want to cause friction in other countries and just wanted to party all the time party all the time parttay all the time.

Answer 10

Because then we would not have had an excuse to invade Iraq and steal all their OIL!
