Means

I want to respond to the renewed curiosity I sense about 911 by providing a three part series of essays and podcasts, with each pair focused on one component of one of the most important maxims of criminal forensics: motive, means and opportunity. This one is focused on means, how 911 was done. One aspect of that framework is that the involvement of Israel, Israeli corporations, American zionists and sayanim operated at the levels of both motive and means.

Motives of those factions included coaxing the United States into invading Israel’s regional enemies like Iraq, Syria and Iran; fanning the flames of Islamophobia in the West in a way as advantageous as possible for Likud and far right parties in Israel; and allowing the landlord Larry Silverstein to avoid paying a billion dollar asbestos mitigation bill for WTC and pocketing the terrorism insurance payout.

Means conducted by those factions included the controlled demolition with nanothermite, probable grounding of all of the airplanes to enable the calls and voice mails, use of replacement planes at WTC, and identity theft of some of the alleged hijackers. The participation of the American deep state (which has a lot of overlap with American zionists) was conducted by a wide variety of means.

American false flags

911 was the greatest American false flag of the 21^st century. If you think no government or deep state would be foul enough to kill nearly 3,000 people for some nefarious purpose, consider the history of American false flags.

Newspaper tycoon William Randolph Hearst famously cabled the artist Frederic Remington in Havana Cuba in January 1897: “Please remain. You furnish the pictures and I’ll furnish the war.” Shortly after, the U.S.S. Maine was blown up, the United States invaded Cuba and the Spanish-American war began.

The R.M.S. Lusitania was torpedoed by a German U-boat on May 7, 1915, probably blowing up American munitions bound for Britain that American authorities knew was likely to get attacked, and lead to America’s entry to WW I.

F.D.R. may have had foreknowledge of the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Operation Northwoods was a plan for false flag attacks against various U.S. military and civilian targets to justify military intervention in Cuba prepared by the Joint Chiefs of Staff for President Kennedy. Among the nine pretexts offered by the plan two were remarkably similar to 911 (possibly even down to using Florida air force bases): “staged hijackings, staged shoot-downs of a civil airliner and U.S. fighter.” The portion of the memo describing the staged shoot-down was remarkably specific.

“Two civil airliners could be painted with identical identifications. One would be converted to a drone and hidden at Eglin Air Force Base in the Florida Panhandle, while the other would become a chartered flight full of hand-picked “college students” bound for Venezuela or some other country which would require overflying Cuban airspace. Somewhere south of Florida, the two planes would rendezvous where the one with passengers would descend and proceed to Eglin AFB where the passengers would be evacuated. The drone would then continue on the filed flight plan until it was over Cuba where it would begin broadcasting a Mayday distress signal that it was under attack by Cuban MiGs. Shortly thereafter, a radio signal would detonate the aircraft.”

Although more Vietnam War veterans have committed suicide by now than the 58,220 who died in combat, the Gulf of Tonkin incident that dramatically escalated America’s participation in the Vietnam War was a sham. There were no North Vietnamese P.T. boats firing on U.S. Navy ships. Even Lyndon Johnson wondered aloud: “For all I know, our Navy was shooting at whales out there.”

Defining the deep state

The phrase deep state was originally coined to describe obscure forces operating above and behind representative government in Turkey. As the phrase was popularized by Peter Dale Scott it was used to name similar forces operating in the western context. As it entered into common parlance in the United States during the Trump administration it was typically defined as those members of the permanent civil service in the alphabet agencies of intelligence, national security state, State Department, and the military that were employed there before any single presidential administration and would be there after, a kind of permanent government. I think this is a misnomer because true deep state operatives are not exclusively employed by government.

They can be, and they can use the government, but they can also use other social forces as well. As an empirical model of power it works at the confluence of government, intelligence, narcotrafficking, organized crime, high finance, oil and resource extraction, covert operations, paramilitaries, terrorism and aviation operating partially inside of the government and partially outside of it, sometimes “sheep dipped” into corporations and other entities by intelligence, sometimes with no formal connection to government at all.

Israeli terrorism

If you think Israel wouldn’t be foul enough to kill nearly 3,000 people for some nefarious purpose, consider the history of Israeli terrorism, particularly the King David Hotel bombing, Lavon Affair, and attack of U.S.S. Liberty.

“By means of deception you shall make war.” - Proverbs 24:6 Motto of the Mossad

The King David Hotel bombing took place in Jerusalem on July 22, 1946. The primary motivation of the bombing was to destroy any documents that may have incriminated the Jewish Agency in “attacks against the British, which were obtained during Operation Agatha, a series of raids by mandate authorities.” It killed 92 people (17 of them Jews) and injured 46. It was organized by the leader of Irgun, Menachem Begin, who would go on to be the prime minister of Israel twice. Jewish Agency chairman and first prime minister of Israel David Ben-Gurion declared Irgun to be “the enemy of the Jewish people.” Albert Einstein compared Irgun (and its successor political party, Herut) with “Nazi and Fascist parties,” calling them “terrorist, right wing, chauvinist organizations.”

The Lavon affair was a failed false flag operation that Israeli military intelligence tried to conduct in the summer of 1954. The objective was to mobilize sleeper cells of Egyptian jews in Egypt to plant explosives in British and American civilian targets like libraries, cinemas and educational centers. The attacks were to be blamed primarily on the Muslim Brotherhood and Egyptian Communist party, with the aim of destabilizing Nassar. Egyptian security forces discovered the plot before it was set in motion. Two conspirators were executed and others were imprisoned.

The two hour June 8, 1967 attack on the U.S.S. Liberty left 34 Americans dead and 174 injured - two-thirds of the crew. The Liberty was an N.S.A. signal intelligence ship on a spy mission to monitor the Six Day War between Israel and several Arab countries. Even though it was flying an American flag and identified as an American vessel by Israel, it was nevertheless attacked by Israeli torpedoes, strafing fire and napalm in the Mediterranean 12 miles west of Gaza. The attack may have occurred because Israel was concerned the ship may have been collecting evident of the killing of “Egyptian prisoners of war in the city of El Arish in the northern Sinai.”

The King David Hotel bombing proved Israel’s willingness to kill jews – and doubtless many jews died in 911. The Lavon Affair proved Israel’s willingness to commit false flags. The U.S.S. Liberty incident confirmed Israel’s ability to attack its greatest sponsor without any consequence whatsoever.

Evidence of foreknowledge

Attorney General John Ashcroft “advised members of Congress and the Senate as early as August 2001 not to travel on commercial airlines. Asked if he knew anything about the threat or who might have made it, the Attorney General replied, ‘Frankly, I don't. That's the answer,’” demonstrating a remarkably callous dereliction of duty

The Bush administration sent two carrier battle groups into the Gulf of Arabia, just off the Pakistani coast. Meanwhile, about 17,000 U.S. troops joined more than 20,000 N.A.T.O. soldiers in Egypt for Operation Bright Star scheduled for September 2-16, 2001 while 23,000 British troops steamed toward Oman for Operation Swift Sword, which was held between August 15-October 26, 2001.

Zim Shipping, a suspected Israeli intelligence front, broke their lease on September 6, 2001 even though they still owed six months on it. Zim occupied all of the 16th floor (WTC floor space approximated 50,000 square feet), 10,000 square feet of the 17th floor and some space of the 29th floor of WTC 1.

On September 7, 2001 the president’s brother, Florida Governor Jeb Bush, signed emergency executive order number 01-261. It allowed the Florida National Guard to assist law enforcement and emergency management personnel in the event of large civil disturbances, disaster, or terrorism.

According to Haaretz, two employees of the Israeli instant messaging platform Odigo “received messages two hours before the Twin Towers attack on September 11 predicting the attack would happen. The company has been cooperating with Israeli and American law enforcement, including the FBI, in trying to find the original sender of the message predicting the attack.”

How did Bush see the first plane crash on live camera? In a public event after 911, he once said “I saw an airplane hit the tower - the TV was obviously on - and I used to fly myself, and I said, 'There's one terrible pilot.' And I said, 'It must have been a horrible accident.’”

Why didn’t the Secret Service didn’t hustle Dubya out of the Florida elementary classroom immediately on 911. After chief of staff Andrew Card told Bush about the second plane hitting the WTC, Bush remained at Booker Elementary School for an additional amount of time.

Ties between the Bush family and the Saudi elite

By 911, the Bush family had decades of ties with the Saudi elite, particularly with the bin Ladens. George W. Bush’s business partner with Arbusto energy company, CIA operative Jim Bath, obtained considerable financing from the bin Ladens.

As the family's eldest son, Salem bin Laden was named head of the Saudi bin Laden Group. Salem established the company's ties to the American political elite when, according to French intelligence sources, he funneled $34 million to the Contras in Nicaragua (a major covert operation Vice President George H.W. Bush may have been conducting discreetly behind the scenes). He also developed close ties with the Bush family in Texas.” (link)

Osama bin Laden may have been a CIA asset named Tim Osman.

Osama Bin Laden arrived in Dubai on July 4, 2001 from Quetta Pakistan with his own personal doctor, nurse and four bodyguards for urology treatment at the American hospital. While there he was visited by several members of his family and Saudi personalities (including Prince Turki al Faisal, then head of Saudi intelligence), and the CIA chief (who was recalled to Washington shortly afterwards) and a second CIA agent.

“Private planes owned by rich princes in the Gulf fly frequently between Quetta and the Emirates, often on luxurious “hunting trips” in territories sympathetic to Bin Laden. Other sources confirm that these hunting trips have provided opportunities for Saudi contacts with the Taliban and terrorists since they first began in 1994.” (link)

Congressman Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA) claimed “that our intelligence services knew about the location of bin Laden several times but were not permitted to attack him because of decisions made by people higher up.”

On August 6, 2001 Bush received a Presidential Daily Brief in Crawford Texas entitled “Bin Laden determined to strike in US.” When they were done Bush told the briefer "All right. You've covered your ass now.”

The Bush and bin Laden families made millions together for years through the global private equity firm, the Carlyle Group, firm heavy on military investments and former heads of state. George H.W. Bush met with Osama bin Laden's brother, Shafig Bin Laden, in the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, Washington, on the morning of 911. They were on Carlyle Group business. Also in attendance was “former secretary of defense Frank Carlucci, former secretary of state James Baker III, and other unnamed members of the bin Laden family.” Baker led the Bush v. Gore legal team that helped install Dubya.

“At 9:42 am September 11, 2001 for the first time in history, the FAA grounded all flights over or bound for the continental United States. Over the next two-and-a-half hours, some 3,300 commercial flights and 1,200 private planes are guided to land at airports in Canada and the United States” – and yet, dozens of members of the bin Laden family were all allowed to leave the United States on a jumbo jet when all other civil aviation had ceased.

Osama bin Laden disavowed 911 on September 17, 2001. “I would like to assure the world that I did not plan the recent attacks, which seems to have been planned by people for personal reasons. I have been living in the Islamic emirate of Afghanistan and following its leaders’ rules. The current leader does not allow me to exercise such operations.” (link)

911 was never among the charges of the FBI against Osama bin Laden.

The role of Israel, Israeli corporations, American zionists and sayanim in 911 as a bridge between motive and means

Many leading neoconservatives in the 1990s were dual Israel-United States citizens. These included Elliot Abrams, John Bolton, Michael Chertoff, Eliot Cohen, Douglas Feith, Marc Grossman, Richard Haas, Donald Kagan, Lewis "Scooter" Libby Richard Perle, Paul Wolfowitz, Dov Zakheim, Phillip Zelikow and Robert Zoellick.” Another notably strong supporters of Israel is Bill Kristol.

Jewish neocons under the leadership of “The Prince of Darkness” Richard Perle drafted “A Clean Break” (July 1996) to provide Israel prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu with advice on Middle Eastern geopolitics, which emphasized preemptive war, particularly against Iraq, Syria, and Iran. Perle (with the American Enterprise Institute at the time) would go on to serve as chair of the Defense Policy Board during the George W. Bush administration. Another signatory, Douglas Feith, was named Bush’s undersecretary for defense policy, the third highest ranking civilian Pentagon official under Donald Rumsfeld and Paul Wolfowitz. It was also Feith who General Tommy Franks called “the fucking stupidest guy on the face of the earth.”

Dov Zakheim was a particularly committed Zionist and particularly central to 911. An ordained rabbi and practicing orthodox Jew, Zakheim was former deputy undersecretary of defense for planning and resources during the Reagan years and comptroller of the Pentagon during 911. He even wrote a book criticizing America’s lack of support for a native Israel-produced fighter jet, Flight of the Lavi: Inside a U.S.-Israeli Crisis.

His father, Rabbi Jacob Zakheim, was born in 1910 and raised near Bilaystok (Russia/Belarus), a region former Israel prime minister Yitzhak Shamir came from as well. His father was also a member of the Betar, a “Revisionist Zionist youth movement founded in 1923 in Riga, Latvia, by Vladimir (Ze'ev) Jabotinsky.” Its main demand was the creation of a “Greater Israel on both sides of the Jordan River. Many of its acolytes later joined forces with other Jewish terrorist groups in Palestine during the British Mandate period like Irgun, Stern, Haganah and Lehi gangs. Family friends of the Zakheims included another former Israel prime minister Menachem Begin and former three time defense minister, foreign minister, ambassador to the United States and mentor to Benjamin Netanyahu Moshe Arens. These are some of the leading lights of the founding generation of the Israel.

From 1998-2001, Dov Zakheim “was CEO of SPC International, a subsidiary of System Planning Corporation.” Their subsidiary Tri-Data Corporation was responsible for the recovery efforts at WTC after the 1993 bombings. They even had a copy of the twin towers’ blueprints. Kroll, the “CIA of Wall Street,” was also brought after the bombing by the Port Authority to coordinate a major security revamping.

“SPC also developed and produced the Flight Termination System, which enables a remote source to take complete control of a commercial jet aircraft's autopilot and flight management computers and direct the aircraft to any target.” Around 911, Dov Zakheim’s System Planning Corporation was contracted to send at least 32 Boeing KC-767 aircraft to MacDill AFB Florida as part of a Boeing and Pentagon tanker lease agreement. I will argue later in this article that this may have been the type of plane that hit WTC 1 on 911.

WTC 7 was the “first major commercial development project of Larry Silverstein’s development company, Silverstein Properties, built from the ground up in the 1980s.”

During the construction of WTC a slurry of concrete and asbestos was sprayed on the structural steel for fire protection until the New York City Council outlawed asbestos in 1971. This halted its use by the builders above the “40^th floor of the north tower” and prevented its use at all in the south tower. In the mid-1990s, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey estimated asbestos abatement in the complex would cost approximately $1 billion dollars - “well over 12 times the buildings' original cost.” However, asbestos mitigation costs didn’t dissuade Larry Silverstein from buying the WTC complex.

Six weeks before 911, Larry Silverstein was awarded “a 99-year lease with the Port Authority” to the WTC complex for $3.2 billion. He took out a $3.5 billion terrorism insurance policy.

Silverstein’s group “was originally outbid by a competitor, Vornado Real Estate Trust – but this bid was withdrawn when the Port Authority refused to reduce the 99 year term of the lease.”

“It was the largest real estate deal in New York history when Silverstein and his partners paid the Port Authority about $800 million in fees and down payments for the lease. Of that $800 million, Silverstein only put up about $14 million, investors Lloyd Goldman and Joseph Cayre provided about $110 million, and about $127 million came from Westfield America, which operated the shopping mall at the trade center. The GMAC Commercial Mortgage Corporation lent Silverstein $563 million.” (link)

Westfield America was a subsidiary of Frank Lowry’s international Westfield shopping mall conglomerate. Lowry fled “Europe after WWII to Palestine and joined the Zionist terror gangs Hagannah” and the Golani Brigade. Lowry made his fortune in Australia after emigrating from Israel in 1952 and was a former Director of the Reserve Bank of Australia (1995-2005).

“Silverstein engineered his purchase of the Trade Center through fellow zionist billionaire Lewis Eisenberg, head of the New York Port Authority.” Eisenberg was a major Republican presidential fundraiser and future Ambassador to Italy and San Marino.

“Silverstein and Eisenberg have both held leadership positions with the United Jewish Appeal, a billion dollar zionist ‘charity’ organization. Silverstein is a former chairman of the United Jewish Appeal-Federation of Jewish Philanthropies of New York. This is an umbrella organization which raises hundreds of millions of dollars every year for its network of hundreds of member zionist agencies in the United States and Israel.” (link)

Silverstein is friends with three Israeli prime ministers, spoke with Netanyahu every Sunday, and “once offered ex-Prime Minister Ehud Barak a job as his representative in Israel.”

Due to a dermatology appointment his wife so thoughtfully reminded him of, Silverstein didn’t go to work at WTC on 911 as he would have normally.

In the Federal District Court in Manhattan of Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein, his lawyers argued that 911 constituted two events of terrorism and that he should be paid out twice. He settled for $4.6 billion, including $861 million for Building 7 (which collapsed in a free fall even though it wasn’t hit by a plane).

The court of Judge Hellerstein was the venue for “all 911 litigation,” from Ellen Mariani’s case against Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz to the “final 9/11 wrongful death lawsuit” (settled on September 19, 2011) between the Bavis family, United Airlines and airline security firm Huntleigh USA.

“After the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, scores of victims’ family members decided to pursue lawsuits in federal court, bypassing a dedicated compensation fund in order to seek not only millions of dollars in damages, but also answers and accountability. Many had wanted to compel a public soul-searching, and to have the airlines and others reveal in court how their policies and actions might have allowed 19 armed hijackers to pass through airport security, board planes and carry out the attacks. The families had amassed a trove of internal documents and depositions. But none of the material was ever aired before a jury. Each of the 96 victims’ cases filed in the court of Judge Hellerstein.” (link)

No 911 litigation discovery material was ever made public, no case ever went to trial and the victims’ families’ aspirations for public accountability went unrealized in the court of Judge Hellerstein who, like Silverstein and Eisenberg, is an orthodox Jew and committed zionist “with close ties to Israel.”

The judge’s son (Joseph Z. Hellerstein) and sister both emigrated from the United States to orthodox zionist settlements in the occupied West Bank. Hellerstein’s son practices law with an important Israeli law firm, Amit, Pollak & Matalon, where he represents International Consultants on Targeted Security (ICTS). ICTS owns Huntleigh USA, which “sells services to every airport from which the hijacked planes operated.” Both father and son Hellerstein worked for the well-known New York law firm of Stroock, Stroock & Lavana, which has “a long history of representing the Rothschilds and other high-level zionists.”

Silverstein, Goldman and Cayre received their $124 million investment back in February 2004 as part of a secret deal they had made with the Port Authority for the authority to buy back their initial stake.

Silverstein received a $4.6 billion return on an initial investment of $14 million. Even the $14 million was eventually returned to him in March 2004.

Israeli spy ring in USA

“March 5, 2002: It is reported that many spies in the uncovered Israeli spy ring seemed to have been trailing the 911 hijackers. For instance, five Israeli spies are intercepted in the tiny town of Hollywood, Florida, and four 9/11 hijackers are known to have spent time in Hollywood, Florida. Le Monde, March 5, 2002, Reuters, March 5, 2002, Jane's Intelligence Digest, March 15, 2002 In one case, some Israeli spies lived at 4220 Sheridan Street, only a few hundred feet from where Atta was living at 3389 Sheridan Street. Israeli spies appear to have been close to at least 10 of the 19 911 hijackers.” Salon, May 7, 2002 (link)

“March 6, 2002: A Washington Post article completely denies the existence of any Israeli spy ring. A "wide array of US officials" supposedly deny it, and Justice Department spokeswoman Susan Dryden says: "This seems to be an urban myth that has been circulating for months.” Washington Post March 6, 2002 The New York Times fails to cover the story at all, even months later. Salon May 7, 2002 By mid-March, Jane's, the respected British intelligence and military analysis service, notes: “It is rather strange that the US media seems to be ignoring what may well be the most explosive story since the 911 attacks - the alleged breakup of a major Israeli espionage operation in the USA.” Jane's Intelligence Digest, March 13, 2002 (link)

“May 7, 2002: Salon reports on the Israeli ‘art student’ ring. All the ‘students’ claim to have come from either Bezalel Academy, or the University of Jerusalem. A look in the Bezalel database shows that not a single one of them appear to have attended school there. There is no such thing as the University of Jerusalem. In fact, the article points out that the sheer sloppiness and brazenness of the spy operation appears to be a great mystery, especially since the Mossad is renowned as one of the best spy agencies in the world. One government source suggests a theory to Salon that the ‘art students’ were actually a smoke screen. They were meant to be caught and connected to DEA surveillance so that a smaller number of spies also posing as art students could complete other missions. One such mission could have been the monitoring of al-Qaeda terrorists. Salon May 7, 2002 Shortly afterwards, a major Israeli newspaper publishes a story about the spy ring, but doesn't come to any conclusions.” Haaretz May 14, 2002 (link)

“May 21, 2002: Abdulla Noman, a former employee of the US consulate in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, where 15 of the 19 911 hijackers got their visas, says that he took money and gifts to provide fraudulent visas to foreigners. He pleads guilty and is convicted. About 50 to 100 visas were improperly issued by Noman from September 1996 until November 2001, when he was arrested. However, a former visa officer in Jeddah, Michael Springman, has claimed in the past that the Jeddah office was notorious for purposefully giving visas to terrorists to train in the US. AP May 21, 2002 If this is true, then was Noman ‘the fall guy’ to provide a cover story?” (link)

Security firm Securacom/Stratasec

WTC 1, 2 and 7 may have been prepared for controlled demolition under the cover of official repair, maintenance and improvement work beginning with reconstruction necessary after the 1993 bombing damage in the basement and including elevator modifications, fireproofing, electrical and telecommunications work. The security revamp Kroll was engaged for after the 1993 bombing may have provided cover as well. The firms in the impact zones also have very plausible connections to the deep state.

The weekend before 911, the twin towers were powered completely down.

No locks, no security cameras, nothing. Eyewitnesses mentioned an unusually large number of people who didn’t normally work there, in overalls, carrying very large tool boxes, and numerous large spools of wire. It was said to be internet cabling upgrades.

George W. Bush's brother Marvin Bush was a shareholder, board member, and principal of Securacom, a security firm now called Stratesec, from 1993-2001. The firm had a $8.3 million contract to upgrade security for WTC from 1996-2000. On 911, Securacom was still providing security for WTC, as well as for Dulles International Airport (the airport American Air 77 originated from, which allegedly hit the Pentagon. It had previously also provided security for United Airlines in the 1990s. The company’s primary investor was the Kuwait-American Corp., which also had links to the Kuwaiti royal family. Securacom’s managing partner was Wirt Dexter Walker III, a cousin of George and Marvin Bush. Another Securacom client was Los Alamos Laboratory, which was “developing super-thermite explosives of the type that have been found in the WTC dust.”

There had been numerous unusual safety evacuations and fire drills in the weeks immediately preceding 911. The security alert had been lifted five days prior. Patrols of bomb-sniffing dogs ended then as well.

Gelatin and E-Team

Another possible means of rigging the buildings for controlled demolition may have been by the work of two art groups, Gelatin and E-Team, who “were selected to be part of the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council World Views programs that allowed them and other artists to work and live in the WTC in the four years leading up to 911 on different floors, including 91 and 92 of the North Tower.” These live/workspaces allowed participants to receive temporary construction ID cards, which gave them 24/7 access to the entire WTC complex, weekends included.

Gelatin’s “B Thing” project involved gutting the interior walls and ceiling tiles, covering the walls with cardboard packaging, removing an external window pane of glass and building a temporary balcony on the 91st floor. The cardboard packaging covering the walls inside was clearly labeled “BB 18.” Gelatin is the name of an explosive compound invented by Alfred Nobel. “BB 18” is the model number for a fuse-holder accessory, as described:

Features/benefits of this product: “Purpose is to save space and workload in a complicated wiring situation. Decreases wiring terminations, small footprint reduces space requirements, reduces assembly time, prevents accidental finger exposure, quick and safe method of changing fuse holder configurations, allows for future expansion, improves troubleshooting, eliminates power distribution block.”

The E-Team’s “127 Illuminated Windows” involved using “279 darkened and 127 lit windows” on north face of Tower 1 WTC between 89th and 95th floors on March 29, 2001. This is very near to where American Airlines Flight 11 allegedly crashed into floors 93-99.

The E-Team’s second project “Quick Click” involved inviting guests to stand in an illuminated pane of glass and have their picture taken by members of E-Team in a helicopter hovering outside of the skyscraper on March 31, 2001 4:30-4:50 pm, quite possible the pane that had been removed and replaced on the 91st floor of the north face of the north tower.

An August 18, 2001 New York Times article blended the two groups and their works. The journalist interviewed “Josh Harris, the internet entrepreneur once known for holding extravagant art parties.” Harris rented “a top floor suite at the Millennium Hilton” across the street the evening before B Thing “and invited people to what guest described as a night of decadence.” Harris and others grabbed cameras near dawn, and took a helicopter (tail number N666LH) up to the 91st floor of WTC 1. Gelatin joined them at the penthouse shortly after for a “euphoric breakfast.” Harris produced credit card records to the reporter from March 2001 for the hotel rental and helicopter.

The project description in Gelatin’s coffee table book about B Thing reads like an operating model for installing controlled demolition components.

“And then the surgical intervention in the World Trade Center in New York City. Everything top secret and illegal of course. In days of conspiratorial work, somewhere on the 148th floor and using building site refuse they had tediously smuggled into the building under their pullovers, they constructed a functioning load-bearing balcony. In a long complicated process they scratched putty from the tall heavy window, which couldn't be opened. Then they extracted it using suction pads, shunted the balcony out, posed on it at 6 in the morning and had themselves photographed there from a helicopter for their nearest and dearest back home. They kept very mum about it all, because if word had crept out about their coup they could have been fined very heavily for sabotaging a national treasure. Even if it was built by the Japanese. Incidentally, as proof that they were there, there is now a piece of old chewing gum stuck to the outside of the building at a dizzy height. (Tex Rubinowitz)”

The sketches of the project were equally creepy.

It is not unreasonable to conjecture that Gelatin, an art group named after an explosive, who plastered their installation’s walls with the cardboard packaging for BB18, “a three-phase busbar terminal power feed lug, which is intended for use with LPSM/LPSC series fuse holders” may have been “in charge of the nano-solgel addition (patented paint-on nano-thermate) to the buildings, mainly targeting the 47 core columns at impact point (initiation), the interior core columns (every 6 floors), and the corner sections (every 12-15 floors). Once done they lit up the entire impact zone with their name E-TEAM to make sure it was perfectly lined up inside/outside.” Could the E in E-Team have stood for “explosives?”

Michael A. Hoffman II has proposed the idea of a shadow government or Cryptocracy that derives its power in part by “telling you what they’re doing to you as part of what he has termed the Revelation of the Method. This is the scheme according to which a population that is informed of its manipulation and degradation, but which takes no action to oppose its oppression, has thus been further initiated into enslavement and exponentially subjugated.”

North Tower Impact Zone

Another key zionist power broker was Maurice Greenberg, a member of the Trilateral Commission, former deputy chairman of the Council on Foreign Relations, former chair of the New York Federal Reserve and godfather of insurance giant A.I.G., with notable C.I.A. ties. Greenberg also has a decades-old connection to Henry Kissinger, the Anti-Defamation League and Mossad.

His son Jeffrey Greenberg was a member of the Brookings Institution and Trilateral Commission. He was chairman of Marsh & McLennan on 911, one of the three companies that originally held insurance on WTC for Silverstein before dumping it to reinsurers shortly before 911. Marsh & McLennan had potentially 1,775 employees in WTC 1 and 2 on 911, including the precise strike zone of the north tower, WTC 1, floors 94 and 99.

A number of talking heads appeared on the news immediately after 911 to begin establishing the official narrative right away. One was Paul Bremer, who would later become the American Viceroy of occupied Iraq. He appeared on national news on 911.

Bremer was C.E.O. of Marsh Political Risk Practice, a subsidiary of Marsh & McLennan. He had an office in the south tower. He was also Kissinger’s key aide in government and later the managing director of Kissinger Associates.

While Bremer failed to mention any of the 1,775 employees of his parent company right in the strike zone of the north tower when he made his appearance, he did definitively declare “Osama bin Laden responsible, possibly Iran and Iraq too, and called for the most severe military response possible.” He also said nominally (and with intense irony): “The American way of life is not threatened by these people, unless we threaten it ourselves. If we start throwing away the democratic freedoms and the civil liberties that are at the heart of our society, that's what they’re after.”

What Bremer “cautioned” against came into being almost immediately with the Patriot Act.

295 employees of Marsh & McLennan were eventually determined to have been killed on 911.

South Tower Impact Zone

“Prior to the year 2000, Fuji Bank was the second largest bank in Japan. Fuji's largest investors were Union Carbide, Mobil Oil and Raytheon. Mizuho Holdings controlled companies not only in the impact zone of the south tower, but also on floors 48 to 50 of the north tower by way of DKB. Toru Hashimoto, chairman of Fuji Bank, was also with Deutsche Securities Limited Tokyo Branch and is now on the board of Deutsche Bank with Norman Augustine.”

Deutsche Bank had also bought A.B. Krongard’s investment bank Alex Brown. This division of Deutsche Bank would later become implicated in the stock puts made on companies that would suffer on 911. Krongard was deputy director of the CIA on 911.

“Augustine, also known for being the CEO of Lockheed Martin, was founder of In-Q-Tel and a board member of Riggs National, the banking firm of Jonathan Bush, a brother of George H. W. Bush.” In 2004 Saudi Arabian accounts at Riggs led to convictions for money-laundering and financing of the 911 “terrorists.” (link)

Also in the impact zone was Baseline Financial Services, located on floors 77 and 78. Baseline’s chair Joseph Kasputys worked in the Department of Commerce with George H.W. Bush’s fixer (and lead attorney in Bush v. Gore) Jim Baker during the Ford administration. Kasputys was instrumental in the creation of the Department of Energy and retained these connections from 1977 through at least 1997. The Department of Energy was developing thermite ignition devices as early as 1983. Additionally, national laboratories working within the department developed nanothermites in the late 1990s.

“Kasputys was also a member of the Logistics Management Institute (LMI), whose members included Paul Kaminski of In-Q-Tel and General Dynamics, Charles DiBona of Halliburton, Skull and Bones member Joseph Samuel Nye, and Michael Daniels of Science Applications International Corporation (S.A.I.C.). It has been noted that S.A.I.C., a defense contractor with expertise in thermite-related technologies, played a large part in the N.I.S.T. WTC investigation. L.M.I.'s self-proclaimed role is "advancing the science of government.”

“According to N.I.S.T., Kasputys' Baseline modified the southeast corner of floor 78 in 1999, exactly where the aircraft hit on 9/11. Floors 77 and 78 were upgraded for fireproofing in June and April of 1998, respectively.”

Richard Gage 911

Kevin Ryan’s website. Site Manager for the environmental testing division of Underwriters Laboratories, which certified the fire-proofing on WTC structural steel.

“In more than 100 steel-framed, high-rise fires (most of them very hot, very large and very long-lasting), not one has collapsed, ever.” On 911, three did in one day, including one that wasn’t hit by a plane.

499,000 pieces of steel were shipped off to China before any forensic analysis. Only 263 pieces were kept, allowing virtually no forensic analysis.

The south tower that was hit second fell first.

WTC 1, 2 were designed to withstand the impact of a 707, the largest airplane at the time of construction.

The buildings fell with no resistance from 200,000 tons of structural steel. WTC 1 in eight seconds, WTC 2 ten seconds, WTC 7 in six seconds.

Aluminum planes (that can seriously gouge a wing just taxiing into a pole, or break a nose cone if it hits a large bird) disappeared into 200,000 tons of structural steel and 400,000 cubic yards of concrete without breaking up into any pieces whatsoever?

200,000 tons of structural steel and 400,000 cubic yards of concrete turned almost entirely into a pyroclastic dust cloud when the official conspiracy says all of that material fell by gravity?

Molten metal was dripping out of the 81st floor. This requires sustained heat of 2,500 degrees F. Jet fuel - kerosene - burns at 600 degrees F. 90% of it burned outside of the buildings.

There were “two unexplained spikes in the seismic record from 911 indicate huge bursts of energy shook the ground beneath the World Trade Center's twin towers immediately prior to the collapse. The Palisades seismic data recorded a 2.1 magnitude earthquake during the 10 second collapse of the South Tower at 9:59:04 and a 2.3 quake during the 8 second collapse of the North Tower at 10:28:31. However, the Palisades seismic record shows that, as the collapses began, a huge seismic spike marked the moment the greatest energy went into the ground. The strongest jolts were all registered at the beginning of the collapses, well before the falling debris struck the Earth. These unexplained spikes in the seismic data lend credence to the theory that massive explosions at the base of the towers caused the collapses. A ‘sharp spike of short duration’ is how seismologist Thorne Lay of University of California at Santa Cruz told AFP an underground nuclear explosion appears on a seismograph.” (link)

Nanothermite

Characteristics of Controlled Demolition - David Ray Griffin

Sudden Onset: In controlled demolition, the onset of the collapse is sudden. One moment, the building is perfectly motionless; the next moment, it suddenly begins to collapse.
Straight Down: The building comes straight down, into, or at least close to, its own footprint, so that it does not harm the other buildings.
Almost Free-Fall Speed: Collapse at almost free-fall speed. This can occur because the supports for the lower floors are destroyed, so that when the upper floors come down, they encounter no resistance.
Total Collapse: The building completely falls to ground level.
Sliced Steel: In controlled demolitions of steel-frame buildings, explosives are used to slice the steel columns and beams into pieces.
Pulverization of Concrete and Other Materials: Explosives will pulverize concrete and most other non-metallic substances into tiny particles.
Dust Clouds: Dust clouds result when explosions eject the dust from the building with great energy.
Horizontal Ejections: Horizontal ejection of other materials, besides dust.
Demolition Rings: A series of small explosions run rapidly around a building.
Sounds Produced by Explosions: The use of explosives to induce collapses produces, of course, sounds caused by the explosions.
Molten Steel: If explosives were used to slice the steel columns there would be molten steel in the debris.”

Tons of nanothermite spheres 1/1,000 the width of a human hair were found all over lower Manhattan.

“Five days after the collapse on September 16, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (N.A.S.A.) used an Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (A.V.I.R.I.S.) to locate and measure the site's hot spots. Dozens of hot spots were mapped, the hottest being in the east corner of the South Tower where a temperature of 1,377 degrees F was recorded. This, however, is less than half as hot at the molten steel in the basement.” (link)

The molten steel remained at ground zero December.

Undisputed Facts Point to the Controlled Demolition of WTC 7: Response to NIST’s Invitation for Written Comments (January 4, 2007). Richard Gage, AIA – Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth

Multiple 200,000 pound pieces of structural steel flew 500 feet. 300 ton pieces of structural steel flew into Winter Garden and the American Express building. From a gravity fall?

Pyroclastic clouds went up and outward during the collapse, not steel, concrete, glass, humans and office furniture downward as they would in a supposed gravity fall.

There was visual evidence of squibs a few floors below the pyroclastic cloud as it descended, which blew out at 100 mph. No, it wasn’t “air compressed as the floors fell.”

The top third of the towers vaporized and still had the weight to crush the floors below?

The top third of one tower tilted significantly when it started to fall and then vaporized.

The fire fighters in the Naudet brothers’ documentary after the planes hit talked amongst themselves and said “it was like a controlled demolition…boom boom boom boom!”

None of the buildings tipped over where they were struck.

Fire had never made any other steel frame skyscraper fire collapse, even ones that burned much hotter, longer and over a wider area.

The fire was allegedly hot enough to melt structural steel but numerous people were clearly visible waving from the holes in buildings.

Numerous eyewitnesses described several secondary explosions prior to the collapse, many are on video.

Cooled off formerly molten steel could be clearly see around slant cuts of supporting columns in photographs of the structural steel at ground zero.

The spire was a 40 story inner column that remained standing for a few seconds after collapse of the rest of the building and then collapsed into dust.

There was a large circular hole in ground zero. The bedrock appears to have melted and resolidified.

Numerous people who evacuated had their skin dangling off like after high explosives or napalm.

70% of the police, firemen, and other first responders develop respiratory problems. Hundreds developed cancer.

Hundreds of cars where the pyroclastic clouds went near ground zero were toasted and oxidized. Rubber and plastic parts were gone.

200,000 tons of structural steel, 400,000 cubic yards of concrete, all of human remains, all of the planes, everything turned into a fine dust and blew through the surrounding neighborhood as a pyroclastic cloud spread throughout 1.5 miles in lower Manhattan – and yet somehow someone handed a detective “the passport of Satam Al Suqami and ran off.”

Five dancing Israelis

Five dancing Israelis near a white Urban Moving Systems company van were spotted by people in the neighborhood dancing and high fiving each other as they watched the WTC collapse from the top of a parking garage: Sivan Kurzberg, Paul Kurzberg, Oded Ellner, Yaron Shimuel and Omar Marmari. When cops questioned them, they said “We are Israeli. We are not your problem. Your problem are our problems. The Palestinians are the problem.” When three of them were later interviewed by Israeli TV one of them said “we were there to document it.” How would they have known it was going to happen? Two were confirmed Mossad. Urban Moving Systems was a suspected Mossad front. The owner of Urban Moving Systems, Dominik Otto Suter (an Israeli citizen), was questioned by the FBI on September 12, 2001. He fled to Israel two days later.

“A former Urban Moving Systems employee later contacted the Newark Division of the FBI with information indicating that he had quit his employment with Urban Moving Systems as a result of the high amount of anti-American sentiment present among Urban’s employees. The former employee stated that an Israeli employee of Urban had even once remarked, ‘Give us twenty years and we’ll take over your media and destroy your country’ (page 37 of the FBI report).” (link)

Mohammad Atta

Mohammad Atta and the so-called conservative Moslem hijackers were often seen drinking at topless bars near flight schools, and documented dating strippers, doing cocaine, and renting pornographic movies in their motels. Many of the alleged hijackers were CIA recruits, studied at military schools, and worked military bases, like Mohammed Atta who attended the Officer’s School at Maxwell/Gunter U.S. Air Force Base in Montgomery, Alabama in 1998.

“On the orders of General Mahmoud Ahmed, then head of Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), Omar Sheikh wired $100,000 in the days before the 9/11 attacks to Mohammed Atta. During that time, Ahmed also had high-level meetings with the White House, the Pentagon, the national security council, George Tenet, then head of the CIA, and Marc Grossman, then under-secretary of state for political affairs.” (link)

Up to ten alleged hijackers still alive after 911

None of the names of the alleged hijackers were on the original flight passenger rosters. There was no security footage from any of the originating airports. Many of these individuals that were identified publicly tried to draw attention to the fact that they were still alive and implicated by identity theft. The 911 commission report still included them all anyway, even though the FBI said that they were uncertain about several of them.

“Alleged flight 11 hijackers, Saudi Arabian pilot Waleed Al Shehr held a press conference in Casablanca, Morocco and Abdulaziz Al Omari was quoted in Arab news reports. Al Omari claimed he lost his passport in Denver and is an engineer with Saudi Telecoms. Another Abdulaziz Al Omari was a pilot for Saudi Arabian Airlines. London-based Arabic daily newspaper Asharq Al Awsat interviewed Saeed Alghamdi. Khalid Al Midhar, may also be alive. FBI Director Robert Mueller acknowledged on Thursday that the identity of several of the suicide hijackers is in doubt.” (link)

How many of the alleged hijackers are still alive? Four? Seven? Eight? Nine? Ten? Some might have even died before 911.

Mechanics of the hijacking

Eyewitnesses at WTC said the planes didn’t look like a normal civilian jumbo jets, many thought they were smaller. There was no plane debris and only a miniscule entry hole at the Pentagon. There is no plane debris in Shanksville Pennsylvania. The technology to call with cell phones from cruising altitude didn’t exist in 2001. The recordings of people sounded calm and scripted. There was no background noise consistent with cruising passenger jumbo jets either. Some were unusually long. CeeCee Lyles even said “it’s a frame” in a whisper at the very end.

So what happened?

The first flight of Global Hawk, a remotely-piloted or autonomous aircraft, took place on February 28, 1998. The Flight Termination Systems made by Dov Zakheim’s company Systems Planning Corporation would enable a remote source to take complete control of a commercial jet aircraft's autopilot and flight management computers and direct the aircraft to any target.” (link)

These facts make plausible a scenario that the planes were taken over remotely and landed somewhere, presumably a military base. Maybe entirely new planes were flown remotely into the twins towers. Perhaps people were given scripts to read about being hijacked while on the ground.

Two Boeing 767s out of Boston’s Logan International Airport, American Airlines flight 11 and United Airlines flight 175, crossed paths over Stewart Air National Guard Base in Newburgh, New York. The base has “no family or transient military housing.” Personnel are “normally billeted in nearby hotels and motels.” It is also where the U.S. embassy hostages were repatriated from Iran in 1980. Maybe that’s where the planes were landed.

At 8:19 am flight attendants aboard Flight 11 alerted ground personnel that the plane has been hijacked. At 8:24 am Mohammed Atta makes the first of two accidental transmissions from Flight 11 to ground control (apparently in an attempt to communicate with the plane’s cabin). At 9:20 am a flight attendant contacted American Airlines Operations Center and informed that a passenger located in seat 10B shot and killed a passenger in seat 9B. This hour might have been when the flights 11 and 175 were at Stewart Air National Guard Base.

The passenger allegedly killed is an unusual character in an unusual set of circumstances: Israeli-American Daniel Lewin. One bullet was reported to have been fired. WorldNetDaily published the Federal Aviation Administration memo in an exclusive article. The F.A.A., while confirming the document is authentic, claims the report of Lewin’s shooting, written several hours after the Sept. 11 hijackings, was premature and inaccurate.

Lewin was the founder of the pioneering internet backbone company Akamai and an officer in an elite unit of the Israeli army called Sayeret Matkal, the Israel General Staff's special operations force. The F.A.A. memo’s summary says Lewin, sitting in seat 9B, was “shot by passenger Satam al-Suqami,” sitting behind him in seat 10B.

An F.B.I. investigative document reconstructing notes of a frantic phone call from a Flight 11 flight attendant to her manager on the ground in Boston, reveals that ‘a business class passenger’ was killed by the hijackers. “A hijacker also cut the throat of a business class passenger, and he appears to be dead,” Amy Sweeney relayed to American flight services manager Michael Woodward on the ground at Logan International Airport. She also relayed the exact seat numbers of the hijackers in the ninth and 10th rows - the very rows cited in the controversial FAA report. The FBI’s account of the unrecorded call was leaked to the Los Angeles Times, which ran a story Sept. 20.” (link)

Many eye witnesses thought that the planes which struck the twin towers were smaller than a passenger jumbo jet. Video and photographic evidence shows a flash right before the planes entered WTC, which might suggest a missile. How else could an aluminum 747 disappear entirely into a steel building without breaking up and dropping a significant amount of plane debris? Around 911, Zakheim’s System Planning Corporation was also contracted to send at least 32 Boeing 767 aircraft to MacDill AFB Florida as part of a Boeing and Pentagon tanker lease agreement. The modified 767 fuel tanker is a KC-767. This might be what hit the north tower.

Video and photographic evidence shows a pod, perhaps a missile or a homing device under the plane that hit the south towers, making it look more like a Northrop Grumman E-10 MC2A

At 9:24 am the F.A.A. notified North American Aerospace Defense Command (N.O.R.A.D.)’s Northeast Air Defense Sector (N.E.A.D.S.) of the suspected hijacking of American Airlines Flight 77 out of Dulles International Airport after some passengers and crew aboard are able to alert family members on the ground. This might been when the plane was grounded.

American Airlines Flight 77 that supposedly hit the Pentagon could have just nose-dived into the Pentagon. Instead, the alleged hijacker (supposedly) did an elaborate 300 degree corkscrew dive around it from 7,000 feet and leveled off five feet above the ground at nearly 500 mph with no damage to the lawn, a maneuver that would have challenged even an experienced pilot in a high performance fighter jet. The flight instructor of the alleged hijacker Hani Hanjoor said he couldn’t even solo pilot a Cessna.

There was no damage to the upper floors of the Pentagon. A Boeing 757 tail fin certainly would have been tall enough to cause damage. Where are the wings? Where is anything? These three photographs are the only ones on the FBI website of things remotely resembling plane fragments.

There was a large exit hole of something much smaller than a plane made it all the way through into the courtyard.

Surveillance camera footage from every nearby businesses was taken into custody by the FBI. Only one video from the most heavily watched and recorded building on the planet has ever been released, from a parking lot camera, with frames dropped from earlier versions of it. It doesn’t show a 757 but it does show a trail of dust kicked up.

Missile hitting the Pentagon on 911 #1

Missile hitting the Pentagon on 911 #2

Maybe this is the missile that hit the Pentagon.

Sometime between 8:41 am takeoff and 10:07 am when the passengers and crew members aboard United Airlines Flight 93 out of Newark International Airport who had allegedly contacted friends and family and learn about the attacks in New York and Washington, might have been grounded to make the calls.

The public myth is that this is the flight in which the passengers revolted and the plane crashed near Shanksville, Pennsylvania. There was a small crater and a very small amount of very small pieces of wreckage strewn over a six mile wide area, like something had been shot out of the sky. Certainly nothing remotely approaching the amount of wreckage that would be associated with a Boeing 757. Most crashes have a considerable amount, mostly within a few hundred yards of the crash site.

The mayor of Shanksville Pennsylvania, Ernie Stull, told German television in March 2003: "There was no plane. My sister and a good friend of mine were the first ones there. They were standing on a street corner in Shanksville talking. Their car was nearby, so they were the first here - and the fire department came. Everyone was puzzled, because the call had been that a plane had crashed. But there was no plane.” Numerous witnesses described a “mystery plane” that arrived shortly after the “crash.” Others mentioned a second plane later, weaving erratically, just above the treetop level. Witnesses didn’t consider it a military plane.

How did the aluminum planes disappear into the twin towers when they are so fragile?

They are easily damaged by bird strikes,

hail strikes

and taxiing on the ground into lamp posts

can seriously damage the aircraft.

Narrative management

Through a combination of (seemingly stage-managed) pseudo-man-on-the-street vox populi interviews and elite narrative management immediately after the event, a variety of fundamental tropes were repeatedly impressed upon the general populace.

An unusually composed middle aged white guy in a conspicuously brand new Harley Davidson t-shirt in lower Manhattan on 911 said “it obviously fell because of the structural damage due to the fire.”
The immediate culpability of Osama bin Laden
“It’s a new Pearl Harbor!”
The vital necessity of savage revenge
The vital necessity to abandon civil liberties. “To protect ourselves we’re all going to have to limit our freedoms.”
“The American mainland has never been attacked before!”
“We need to destroy terrorism from our fortress of freedom!”

MIHOP or LIHOP

One of the most important questions for 911 truthers is MIHOP vs. LIHOP: made it happen on purpose vs. let it happen on purpose. But this can mean different things for different people. What is “it”? Made Moslem fundamentalist terrorists hijack civilian airliners which they crashed into the twin towers and Pentagon? Let Moslem fundamentalist terrorists hijack civilian airliners which they crashed into the twin towers and Pentagon? Or, American, Zionist and Saudi deep states made a televisual spectacular of trauma-based mind control designed to induce compliance with a very modern iteration of a very ancient totalitarianism. As Orwell called it:

A society living by and for continuous warfare in which the ruling caste have ceased to have any function but to succeed in clinging to power through force and fraud.”

They most definitely made it happen on purpose.
