"Police radio broadcasts 'This was a terrorist attack.
Notify the Pentagon.' 9:08 a.m."

[Emperor's Clothes note: This was after the first and
second planes had struck the WTC Towers. The third
plane is said to have hit the Pentagon 35 minutes
later, at 9:43 am.
"In Sarasota, Fla., Bush was reading to children in a
classroom at 9:05 a.m. when his chief of staff,
Andrew Card, whispered into his ear. The president
briefly turned somber before he resumed reading. He
addressed the tragedy about a half-hour later. " ['AP'

We are not soothsayers.
We cannot say with certainty what happened September 11 - that
is, what really happened, behind the scenes.
But the following report from the semi-official 'N.Y. Times' makes
it clear that either Americans are being lied to by the those in the
highest places - which if true has the gravest implications - or else
the rulers of Washington's New World Order are criminally
negligent.
In analyzing the 9-11 nightmare, we were puzzled by the official
response to the so-called third plane. That is the one that left
Dulles Airport, flew to Ohio, near the West Virginia and Kentucky
borders, turned around, flew back to Washington and struck the
Pentagon.
Concerning this plane, we asked: how could it stay in the air,
hijacked, for almost an hour after two other hijacked planes had
struck the WTC Towers, and not be seen by U.S. air defense
forces? How could it fly to the Midwest, turn around and fly back to
Washington and hit the Pentagon without being spotted and
therefore intercepted?
The 'N.Y. Times' published the following explanation:
"During the hour or so that American Airlines Flight 77
was under the control of hijackers, up to the moment it
struck the west side of the Pentagon, military officials
in a command center on the east side of the building
were urgently talking to law enforcement and air traffic
control officials about what to do.
"But despite elaborate plans that link civilian and
military efforts to control the nation's airspace in
defense of the country, and despite two other jetliners'
having already hit the World Trade Center in New
York, the fighter planes that scrambled into protective
orbits around Washington did not arrive until 15
minutes after Flight 77 hit the Pentagon." ( 'N.Y.
Times,' Sept. 15, 2001)
This explanation makes matters worse.
If it was difficult to believe that the third plane was not spotted,
then it is a good deal harder to believe that it was spotted and
tracked for over half an hour and yet nothing was done because
officials "didn't know what to do."
Why didn't they force the plane down and failing that, shoot it
down? Before you think, "Because, as the article says, they didn't
have a procedure for handling such an occurrence," note the
following comment from deputy defense secretary Wolfowitz.
Talking about the fourth plane, the one that crashed in
Pennsylvania:
"Paul Wolfowitz, the deputy defense secretary, said
today that the Pentagon had been tracking that plane
and could have shot it down if necessary; it crashed
about 35 minutes after the Pentagon crash." ('N.Y.
Times, Sept. 15, 2001)
"Could have shot it down if necessary."
If they "could have shot" down the fourth plane, why did they not
shoot down the third? Once they knew these were suicide
hijackings - and surely they knew that by around 9:00 am - why
would they wait?
And why, if they really were confused about what to do, why, after
the Commander in Chief was informed about what was
happening, didn't he immediately convene an emergency meeting
to discuss the issue? Why did he keep reading to children and
listening to stories about goats while the 3rd plane flew towards
Washington?
Officials knew the first and second planes had hit highly visible
symbols of US power. They knew this third plane was heading
back to Washington. Couldn't they be reasonably sure that the
target was a symbol of US power in Washington? Then why didn't
they fully evacuate the Pentagon?
The White House has tried to confuse the issue regarding this
question. They claim the Plane changed course - that originally it
was heading for the White House:
"Top government officials have suggested that
American Airlines Flight 77 was originally headed for
the White House and possibly circled the Capitol
building." (CBS News, Sept. 21, 2001,
http://www.cbsnews.com/now/story/0,1597,310721-412,00.shtml)
But according to CBS, this is not the case:
"CBS News Transportation Correspondent Bob
Orr reports that's not what the recorded flight path
shows." (ibid.)
Says CBS:
"Eight minutes before the crash, at 9:30 a.m. EDT,
radar tracked the plane as it closed to within 30 miles
of Washington. Sources say the hijacked jet continued
east at a high speed toward the city, but flew several
miles south of the restricted airspace around the
White House.
"At 9:33 the plane crossed the Capitol Beltway and
took aim on its military target. But the jet, flying at
more than 400 mph, was too fast and too high when it
neared the Pentagon at 9:35. The hijacker-pilots were
then forced to execute a difficult high-speed
descending turn.
"Radar shows Flight 77 did a downward spiral, turning
almost a complete circle and dropping the last 7,000
feet in two-and-a-half minutes.
"The steep turn was so smooth, the sources say, it's
clear there was no fight for control going on. And the
complex maneuver suggests the hijackers had better
flying skills than many investigators first believed.
"The jetliner disappeared from radar at 9:37 and less
than a minute later it clipped the tops of street lights
and plowed into the Pentagon at 460 mph." (ibid.)
The White House denies this:
"At the White House Friday, spokesman Ari Fleischer
saw it a different way.
"That is not the radar data that we have seen,"
Fleischer said, adding, "The plane was headed
toward the White House." (ibid.)
If the White House is right and CBS is wrong, why did the 'Times'
report that:
"During the hour or so that American Airlines Flight 77
was under the control of hijackers, up to the moment it
struck the west side of the Pentagon, military officials
in a command center on the east side of the building
were urgently talking to law enforcement and air traffic
control officials about what to do." ('N.Y. Times,' Sept.
15, 2001)
Given the stories from CBS and the 'Times,' and given that the
plane did in fact hit the Pentagon, aren't the news reports more
believable than the White House denial?
And since in any case there could be no way of being absolutely
sure where the plane would strike, why weren't all the most
sensitive buildings evacuated to prevent:
"WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Up to 800 people may
have died Tuesday when a hijacked commercial
airliner was crashed into the Pentagon, officials
said.
"Firefighters were still battling a fire on the west side
of the 29-acre, 6 million-square-foot building late
Tuesday, more than 12 hours after the crash.
Washington hospitals reported 71 people injured,
some severely, and another 100 to 800 were still
listed as missing and possibly dead late Tuesday. "
(CNN at
http://www.cnn.com/2001/US/09/11/pentagon.terrorism/)
And why wasn't this plane, the third plane, forced down or failing
that, shot down?
Regarding the fourth plane:
"Asked if rules of engagement would have allowed the
Air Force to shoot the plane down, [deputy defense
secretary] Wolfowitz said: 'I think it was pretty clear at
that point that that airliner was not under the pilot's
control and that it was heading to do major damage.'
"He said any military intervention would have
ultimately been the decision of President George W.
Bush....
"Forty minutes passed between the time New York's
second World Trade Center tower was struck and
another commandeered plane crashed into the
Pentagon..."
* Washington Post, 15 September 2001,
http://emperors-clothes.com/articles/indict/wps15.htm#a
A) Officials knew that the third plane, and quite possibly the
second, was set to strike important targets.
B) They tracked the third plane for at least half an hour.
C) Supposedly George Bush, Jr. needed to approve shooting the
plane down.
D) But instead of going into an emergency meeting, he continued
his visit to an elementary school, hearing about goats.
What we have here is either criminal negligence beyond belief,
and that includes the Commander in Chief, who hearing that
planes are destroying the country focuses on goats, or b) the 'N.Y.
Times' piece is repeating a cover story whose purpose is to
explain away the obvious flaw in the original story: namely, that a
plan could be hijacked in Ohio, and fly all the way back to
Washington without being spotted.
And if the 'N.Y. Times' story is a lie, then those who fed the 'Times'
this lie are guilty of conspiracy. They are people in high places
and they are directly involved in the murder of God knows how
many people in N.Y. as well as the 800 casualties the media
speaks of in Washington either because they planned these
attacks, perhaps working through Islamist groups secretly
controlled by the CIA or they knew the attacks were going to
happen and wanted to let them happen. The obvious motive: to
create a seeming justification for extreme military action. And that
is why they did not allow the Air Force to stop possibly the second
and certainly the third planes.
So there you have it - either criminal negligence, including Mr.
Bush who reads about goats while his countrymen are
slaughtered, or treason.
Given these amazing facts, available in the mainstream media,
why is there no call for an investigation?
Mr. Bush has called for bringing those responsible to justice. Let
us begin at home.
