However, I promise you that I will not post any more messages on this subject unless I feel that my reputation and/or position is being tarnished. >Ma Be apparently believes that the CIA could recruit 19 men prepared to >commit mass suicide. > Mr. Reid, I call your attention to the pairs of '****' above coming straight from my "mouth". Even though you used the word "apparently" in your statement above your conclusion about what I wrote totally misrepresents my intentions. I sincerely hope you be much more careful in the future about drawing conclusions of this nature about what I write, sir. I certainly have NOT made up my mind about what's happened in this case as far as who may have been behind it. I believe I made that CRYSTAL CLEAR in my message! So, please don't put words in my mouth I didn't say. That is quite inappropriate, to say the least. Thank you. >A construction engineer friend pointed to me that the eircraft selected by >the highjackers took off on long distance flights and were steered into >their targets at the beginning of their flights, and hence carried tons of >fuel.

I just hope that whoever is responsible to conduct the investigation on this tragedy will consider all the arguments on the subject and draw conclusions that could withstand any thorough scrutiny. Both the world and the American people deserve to know the TRUTH about this and NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH (if that is remotely possible)!!!
