8. The concurrent drills by English security on how to deal with mass transit |
|
bombs. The exercise included 3 mock bombings in locations where the actual bombs went off, on the morning of the bombings. Not unlike the war games in the US that took place on 9/11 where the air force would have to shoot down commercial planes that had been hijacked.

9. except that the London exercises were run in a room |
|
by a private company. My understanding was that the New York exercises involved city, state or even federal employees.

6. the September 11 forum is the place for any opinion |
|
or inquiry that seems to call into question the government account of any terror episode.
I think it is supposed to be a tinfoil hat ghetto, but it's become more of a skeptic's hangout.

7. Because they all think there's a connection |
|
to the exercises that apparently ran in New York on Spet 11th.

11. If it is true it doesn't mean anything - but people will use it as proof |
|
of some such conspiracy. If it is true some bombers likely thought that mixing it up on a day there was 'practice' would add to the confusion.
All speculation. Was in Canadian News as a fact - but I don't think it is really acknowledge as so.
No point in torturing our British DUers with theories.
