Interconnected interests in many countries, some of whom have always been viewed as allies of the US and others of whom who have been treated with caution, were all working on individual projects, collecting intelligence, and putting two and two together.<br><br>In the US, some of these intersted parties formed a little think-tank: The Project For a New American Century (PNAC). Their ultimate goal was to spread American power and ownership across the globe, thus guaranteeing continual war and continuing profits from same. Some of them might have even been pure of purpose - feeling that American style capitalism and democracy were truly going to benefit the whole planet. <br><br>In other countries, power-hungry leaders and cults-of personality also wanted a role on the world stage, more wealth, and ties to power in the US.<br><br>Through intelligence collecting efforts, these players came to know of one another, and their purposes found a common denominator. Moreover, they wanted to be left alone to carry out their own little dealings - whatever they might have been - from smuggling arms to trading nuke secrets to delivering information on bio-weapons. Add into this mix the perversions of the players, and it became a 'you scratch my back and I'll cover your ass" scenario.<br><br>The PNAC agenda saw a light in the tunnel when they heard of the plans of what we we call Al-Qaeda. Manipulating the plans from afar, we had some highly placed PNAC members setting the stage early on. <br><br>Cheney and Rumsfeld changed NATO protocols, taking for themselves the authority to order shoot-downs instead of leaving the ability to make that call in the hands of the generals where it had, until that time, always resided.<br><br>Those same two co-ordinated terror drills for September 11th which mimicked the real attacks thereby confusing the entire command structure of the FAA, NORAD and the air-force.<br><br>Others readied the towers, making sure that the spectacle would not just be of planes crashing into a few floors, but of the twin skyscrapers being reduced to rubble within seconds. Perhaps this was never part of the original plan.. but say someone got wind of the impending 'attack' and threatened not to play along unless he got something out of it. that person, I imagine, might be someone who was an obscenely wealthy and well-connected real-estate man who wanted the property but not the attendant expensive mess that would have come with it in the form of cleaning up the buildings' asbestos-rich structure. <br><br>Still others warned their friends not to fly that day. Others planted ridiculous amounts of 'evidence' pointing to the hijackers in rental vehicles in airport parking lots that and passports on top of the tons of rubble.<br><br>The flights: what happened to the people on board? If we look at the plans in Operation Northwoods, those people would all be dead now, exploded into nothing over the ocean, while a copy of their plane was used (and piloted) by the government and operatives. It would figure most sensibly to me that the so-called hijackers truly did exist, but that they couldn't actually be trusted to have the skills to pull the operation off. Decoy planes were likely used, and all the people on board the original flights, including any of the 19 arab suspects who did make the flights - are dead. The decoy theory is made more interesting seeing as first reports indicated that the planes did not look like commercial 757s.<br><br>In the aftermath, friendly contractors cleaned up the mess and the evidence for a tidy sum. Friendly experts pronounced it case closed. Friendly press refused to ask obvious questions. Terror, rage and sorrow clouded the American people's judgment and observations long enough for the administration to pass myriad laws that stripped them of the rights they knew and held dear: the very freedoms the terrorists "hated."<br><br>Anyone who questioned this was an evil-doer.<br>We were either with the president, or we were with the terrorists.<br>We were encouraged to keep shopping.<br><br><br><br> <p></p><i></i>
