Did 9/11 terrorists get outside help?
Column by Bob Graham, Tampa Bay Times

This is the essential unanswered question remaining from 9/11: While the hijackers were inside the United States, did they act alone or did others facilitate them?

The official position of the United States government is that the 19 hijackers acted without assistance.

Virtually all of those who have led inquiries into the events surrounding 9/11 agree that it is implausible that the 19 hijackers — most of whom spoke no English and had never before been in the United States — could have planned and practiced their murderous acts in anonymity for more than 21 months without assistance from persons knowledgeable of American culture and mores.

When I raised the prospects of external support for the hijackers, a high-level U.S. law enforcement official told me to forget it. The government completed a full investigation years ago, there was nothing left to discover, and it was time to move on, he said.

1. No one ever

talks about the wealthy, arab, Tampa family that disappeared overnight just a week or so before 9/11. They left food on the table and all clothing behind.

2. Research the deaths on line

There's been many people question
the validity of the story and some have died strangely.
Of course anytime this is brought up the conspiracy theorist label is thrown around.

To believe Osama could pull off this from a cave is pretty far fetched but do your own research.

3. We need to demand that the government release the 28 redacted pages

of the 9/11 Commission report!
