--- Begin Message ----Caveat Lector-Friends, Boulderites, Countryfolk, your ears! I'm forwarding this message everywhere because understanding the 9/11 attacks is the most important issue of our time, and I've seen no analysis as succinct as mine below. Please distribute it widely -perhaps with the first paragraph and last sentence deleted- and contact your representatives and the 9/11 Commissioners (http://www.9-11commission.gov/) Thank you -Evan Ravitz A very interesting video by Barry Zwicker (see http://www.viewerplus.com/product.asp?Stat=Vision&ID=12043) regarding unanswered questions about the 9/11 attacks will be shown at the St. Johns Episcopal Church annex (just East of the main church) at 7PM this Thursday April 15. We will talk afterward and write letters to our representatives in Washington. To me the most obvious flaw in the official story of what happened on 9/11 is: what happened to our air defences? Since 1958 NORAD (North American Aerospace Defence Command) and later the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) have maintained a seamless constant watch on everything that flies, in air or outer space, and send jet fighters to chase any plane off course. In the year before 9/11 they chased 67 planes. Sometimes they've chased flocks of birds which looked like planes on radar. Yet, on 9/11, the only time in history that 4 planes were hijacked, no jets flew until far too late, from far too far away, at far to slow a speed. NORAD's own 9/18 press release is the "smoking gun": http://www.norad.mil/index.cfm?fuseaction=home.news_rel_09_18_01 It shows near the top that the jets traveled at 9 miles a minute or mach .9 or 540 mph. Yet the F-16s involved can go 1500mph and the F-15s involved can go 1870mph! It shows the 2 F-15s which "chased" the 2 planes headed for the WTC left from Otis AFB on Cape Cod, 153 miles away. Yet, no planes left McGuire AFB in NJ, only 70 miles away, though fully ready. It shows the 2 F-16s which "chased" the plane headed for the Pentagon left from Langely AFB in VA, 105 miles away. Yet, no planes left Andrews AFB in DC, 10 miles away, though fully ready. (another "smoking gun" is that the DC Air National Guard -at Andrews AFB- "mission statement" was changed on Sept. 12: It used to read "DC Air National Guard mission: To provide combat units in the highest state of readiness." They made it far tamer, and now seem to have eliminated the "mission" page altogether. You can see the story at: http://www.cooperativeresearch.org/timeline/nodate/dchanghomepage.html) The Pentagon also has its own radar and, supposedly, antiaircraft missiles -but this information is classified. If the $500 billion a year "Defense" Department can't defend the Pentagon, what can it defend? The Norad press release also shows the FAA notified NEADS (Northeast Air Defence Sector, part of NORAD) of the 2 planes headed for the WTC at 8:40 and 8:43. Yet, there was evidence as early as 8:13 that Flight 11 was hijacked: according to journalist Will Thomas -formerly of Boulder (see www.WillThomas.net) Boston Air Traffic Control both heard Middle Eastern voices in the cockpit shouting "Nobody do anything stupid!" and saw that flight 11 had stopped climbing as per their flight plan. His audio book "Stand down" has the recording of the cockpit voices. Certainly, at 8:20, when the transponder (locator) was turned off on Flight 11 (see testimony of NORAD's Col. Alan Scott to the 9/11 Commission at http://www.danford.net/testimon.htm), NORAD should have known directly. There were 2 other ways authorities should have known much earlier: radar shows whenever planes are off-course, and at least 2 flight attendants made calls to their airlines saying they were hijacked, which have been aired on the media. Our jets should have easily caught all the planes and circled them awaiting orders from the president to shoot them down. (Bush continued to read to children at a Florida school, after having been notified!) Since the August 6, 2001 Presidential Daily Briefing released by the White House on Saturday 4/10, titled "Bin Ladin Determined to Strike in US" says Bin Ladin "would follow the example of World Trade Center bomber Ramzi Yousef" and mentions "hijack a US aircraft", when the planes headed straight for the WTC, they should have been shot down. Richard Clark warned of planes used as missiles on Jan. 25. There are many other unanswered questions about what really happened on 9/11, which are all over the internet. I hope you will join us to see the video, talk and write letters to Reps. Udall and DeGette asking for further investigation.
