Poll question: How many of you know that on 9/11/01 NORAD was running several wargames?
How many of you know that:

A) on 9/11/01 NORAD was running several wargames, including a live-fly hijacking drill?

B) before 9/11/01, NORAD conducted several live-fly exercises where NORAD was supposed to intercept a hijacked plane that was supposed to crash into a major US building?

Thank you for your participation!

2. At the time I didn't know either A or B
One of the LIHOP/MIHOP posters here had a lot of stuff on this in the last month or so. I wonder if we'll ever get to the bottom of this.

5. Mike Malloy said one night
We will never, ever, ever, ever, ever, discover what really happened on that day.

I agree with him.

Including all of the evers.

I just can't swallow the "official story"

9. Why don't you think it proves anything? It shows the events of 9/11 were
not nearly as unimaginable as we were led to believe right after the attacks.

13. That's right.
Rice claimed that no one could have imagined anyone doing such a thing. And I think that someone on the 9/11 Commission claimed that we suffered a "failure of imagination" on Sept.11. Bullshit! These exercises prove otherwise.

10. I appreciate the honesty of your answer.
Edited on Tue Jan-25-05 03:19 PM by Minstrel Boy
But these facts don't stand alone.

You have to consider the context of a case for complicity, such as made in Crossing the Rubicon. In that context, the fact of a live-fly hijacking simulation coincidental with 9/11, under Cheney's authority, which inserted deceiving radar blips and thus frustrated fighter response, must be considered a smoking gun.

11. how unusual would it be for them to conduct the tests done on 9/11?
Was that totally out of the norm?

14. a most extraordinary coincidence
sort of like the insider trading thing with the put-options, which one financial observer called "the most extraordinary coincidence in the history of mankind".
It's kindof like the elections to, with the large discrepancies between the exit-polls and the election results.

Doug Wallace

WASHINGTON -- January 18 "Information Clearing House" --  A lawsuit was filed late Friday January 14th in the U.S. District Court in Reno, Nevada against President Bush and Vice President Cheney. The lawsuit alleges that both defendants have acted outside the scope of their job description in waging a war against Iraq. The complaint alleges that both defendants and others working within the White House and Defense Department have covertly implemented a white paper called “Rebuilding America’s Defenses:” as presented by the Project for the New American Century or PNAC in September, 2000 two months before the murky elections of that year. Among the persons signing the paper were Richard Cheney and Jeb Bush. While the paper was published on the internet, implementation of it by the White House has been in secret.

The thrust of the white paper calls for the complete domination of the globe by the US with wars against Iraq, Syria, and Iran, domination of outer space and of Cyberspace. It calls for an enlarged military to fight simultaneous wars. Security bases world wide with extensive constabulary forces posted to keep all nations subservient to US military and economic power. It also calls for nuclear rockets to be fired from Spy satellites to suppress any challenge to US global domination.

The class action lawsuit filed by retired attorney and great-grandfather, Doug Wallace alleges that the defendants have violated their oaths of office in entering into a private treaty relating to International relations without approval of the Congress and have made a mockery of the Constitution under a false banner of a war on terrorism.

The lawsuit seeks an injunction against further implementation of the PNAC plan without a 2/3 vote of the congress and a full disclosure to the American Public. It also names John Does 1-100 as defendants. The suit seeks restitution to the US Treasury from all Defendants of the cost of the war with Iraq and also seeks a ruling that since the deception about the war and execution of it was outside of their job descriptions they should all be individually liable to private persons injured as a result of their illegal conduct. To view Complaint go to www.dougwallace.com Under the circumstances, notice of support to the court would be appropriate (A printable copy is available at page 26 on website ).
