The myth that the 9/11 commission report

events of 9/11 is perhaps best exposed by the
commissioners themselves, 6 out of 10 of whom have
questioned the commission and its conclusions
personally (namely <A

had deliberately lied to them about the military's
complete lack of response on that day. One of the
commissioners, Max Cleland, even resigned because

Silverstream Software, a software development
company specializing in enterprise architecture
software. By October of that year he had landed

It was the 11th of September, 2001. And everyone

target=Ó_blankÓ>Sibel Edmonds</A> - In the
wake of 9/11, Sibel Edmonds heeded the FBI's call
for Middle Eastern language experts to support
their counterterrorism unit. Fluent in Turkish and
Azerbaijani and conversational in Farsi, she
joined the FBI as a translator on September 15,
2001. She soon discovered gross negligence and
criminal conspiracy in the FBI and State
Department, including <A

target=Ó_blankÓ>deliberately mistranslated

target=Ó_blankÓ>William Bergman</A> - In
August 2001 the Federal Reserve Board of Governors
issued a non-routine supervisory letter warning
Fed banks to be vigilant in monitoring suspicious
activity reports. At the same time, the United
States' economy was experiencing its largest
June-August spike in M1 money supply since 1947,
with more than $5 billion being added to the
currency in circulation over that period. Piecing
this information together at the Federal Reserve
Bank of Chicago two years later, economist Bill
Bergman wondered if the sudden infusion of
currency might have been an indicator of <A
href="http://www.corbettreport.com/mp3/2009-09-04%20William%20Bergman.mp3"
target=Ó_blankÓ>foreknowledge of the 9/11
attacks</A>, as those with assets in danger of
being frozen in the wake of such an attack would
naturally want to liquidate their holdings before
an investigation could occur. When Bergman wrote
to the Board of Governors to ask for clarification
as to why they had issued their supervisory
letter, he was told that he had committed "an
egregious breach of protocol in calling the Board
staff and asking the question."</SPAN></DIV>

target=Ó_blankÓ>Coleen Rowley</A> - When the
so-called "20th hijacker" Zaccharias Moussaoui was
detained on August 15th, 2001, agents in the
Minneapolis FBI field office immediately sought a
criminal warrant to search his belongings.
Management at the FBI dealing with the request
threw up numerous obstacles to the agents, and
even withheld information from them, including the
now-infamous <A

target=Ó_blankÓ>Phoenix Memo</A>written by an
agent in Arizona</SPAN> <SPAN lang=en-US>warning
of terrorists training in flight schools for a
possible upcoming attack. The request was denied
and agents were prevented from searching
Moussaoui's laptop, which contained information
that would have tipped the FBI off to the 9/11
plot. The Minneapolis field office Chief
Counsel,<A href="http://www.coleenrowley.com/"
target=Ó_blankÓ>Coleen Rowley</A>, has been very
public with her disgust at the conduct of FBI

When he returned to Washington, he discovered that
the Jeddah consulate was being used as a place for
funnelling Afghan mujahedeen into the U.S. for
training, facilitated by the CIA on behalf of
their asset, Osama bin Laden. The Jeddah consulate
would be the very office that issued 15 of the
alleged 9/11 hijackers' visas to enter the United
States. After numerous complaints up the chain of
command, Springmann's contract with the State
Department was not renewed.</SPAN></DIV>

target=Ó_blankÓ>Robert Wright</A> - In the
1990s, Special Agent Robert Wright of the FBI's
Chicago</SPAN> <SPAN lang=en-US>field office
spearheaded an investigation into terrorist
financing codenamed Vulgar Betrayal. The
investigation uncovered information about Yassin
Al-Qadi, a terrorist financier who would go on to
be designated a <A
href="http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/nationworld/sns-worldtrade-kadi-ct,0,2810531.story"
target=Ó_blankÓ>global terrorist
financier</A> by the U.S.</SPAN> <SPAN
lang=en-US>treasury in the wake of 9/11. Vulgar
Betrayal led to information about the <A
href="http://www.historycommons.org/context.jsp?item=a1098alqadi#a1098alqadi"
target=Ó_blankÓ>African embassy
bombings</A> in 1998 and resulted in the
seizure of $1.4 million of terrorist financing.
Despite the investigation's remarkable success,
however, Wright was taken off of Vulgar Betrayal
in 1999 and reduced to a paper pusher. In
2002, <A
href="http://vids.rationalveracity.com/videos/960/robert-wright-judicial-watch-briefing"
target=Ó_blankÓ>Wright went public</A> with
information about how his investigations had been
systematically starved for funds, hindered and
obstructed by FBI management and revealed that he
believes 9/11 could have been prevented if he had
been allowed to continue his investigation. The
Bureau prevented him from releasing a book about
his experience. He was threatened with legal
action if he revealed any details about what he
had been investigating.</SPAN></DIV>

target=Ó_blankÓ>Indira Singh</A> - As a risk
management consultant for J.P. Morgan in 2001,
Indira Singh was tasked with implementing the next
generation of risk management software for the
firm. Working for one of the largest financial
institutions in the world, Singh wanted to choose
a reputable software vendor for the task, one with
a proven track record of working with the
sensitive information of important clients. She
solicited a presentation from Ptech, an enterprise
architecture software firm whose clients included
some of the most sensitive departments in the
U.S.</SPAN> <SPAN lang=en-US>government, including
the FBI, the Department of Defense, the Treasury,
the IRS, the US Navy and the White House. After
performing due diligence on the company, Singh
discovered that it had been started in part by
funds from Yassin Al-Qadi (the same Specially
Designated Global Terrorist that Robert Wright's
investigation had been focused on). She discovered
many other disturbing links between Ptech officers
and suspected terrorist organizations. Ptech had
been conducting tests on the interoperability of
FAA and NORAD computer systems in the event of an
emergency on the morning of 9/11. When she tried
to bring this information to the FBI in
Boston</SPAN> <SPAN lang=en-US>she was told by one
agent that she was in a better position to
investigate the case than the Bureau
was.</SPAN></DIV>

target=Ó_blankÓ><BR>The 9/11 Commission</A> -
The myth that the 9/11 commission report
represents an adequate investigation into the
events of 9/11 is perhaps best exposed by the
commissioners themselves, 6 out of 10 of whom have
questioned the commission and its conclusions
personally (namely <A

target=_blank>Kean and Hamilton</A>, <A

Thomas Kean once famously remarked that the
Commission was "<A

members considered <A

target=Ó_blankÓ>bringing criminal
charges</A> against Pentagon officials who
had deliberately lied to them about the military's
complete lack of response on that day. One of the
commissioners, Max Cleland, even resigned because
the commission had been "<A

2000, Richard Andrew Grove was working for
Silverstream Software, a software development
company specializing in enterprise architecture
software. By October of that year he had landed
the firm their largest client in the company's
history: Marsh & McLennan. He was invited
to a staff meeting in Marsh's offices on
the 98th floor of the World</SPAN> <SPAN

It was the 11th of September, 2001. And everyone
who was in attendance at the meeting died there
that day. Grove, who had been late for the
meeting, survived. His <A

target=Ó_blankÓ>Sibel Edmonds</A> - In the
wake of 9/11, Sibel Edmonds heeded the FBI's call
for Middle Eastern language experts to support
their counterterrorism unit. Fluent in Turkish and
Azerbaijani and conversational in Farsi, she
joined the FBI as a translator on September 15,
2001. She soon discovered gross negligence and
criminal conspiracy in the FBI and State
Department, including <A

target=Ó_blankÓ>deliberately mistranslated
documents</A> in the Bureau's possession
before 9/11 that contained information about the
attacks, <A

target=Ó_blankÓ>nuclear spies</A> being
facilitated by top government officials and
foreign operatives who were taken in for
questioning after 9/11 being released because they
were connected to those spy rings. A <A

target=Ó_blankÓ>2005 report</A> from the
Office of the Inspector General determined that
none of Edmonds' allegations can be refuted. In

target=Ó_blankÓ>William Bergman</A> - In
August 2001 the Federal Reserve Board of Governors
issued a non-routine supervisory letter warning
Fed banks to be vigilant in monitoring suspicious
activity reports. At the same time, the United
States' economy was experiencing its largest
June-August spike in M1 money supply since 1947,
with more than $5 billion being added to the
currency in circulation over that period. Piecing
this information together at the Federal Reserve
Bank of Chicago two years later, economist Bill
Bergman wondered if the sudden infusion of
currency might have been an indicator of <A
href="http://www.corbettreport.com/mp3/2009-09-04%20William%20Bergman.mp3"
target=Ó_blankÓ>foreknowledge of the 9/11
attacks</A>, as those with assets in danger of
being frozen in the wake of such an attack would
naturally want to liquidate their holdings before
an investigation could occur. When Bergman wrote
to the Board of Governors to ask for clarification
as to why they had issued their supervisory
letter, he was told that he had committed "an
egregious breach of protocol in calling the Board
staff and asking the question."</SPAN></DIV>

target=Ó_blankÓ>Coleen Rowley</A> - When the
so-called "20th hijacker" Zaccharias Moussaoui was
detained on August 15th, 2001, agents in the
Minneapolis FBI field office immediately sought a
criminal warrant to search his belongings.
Management at the FBI dealing with the request
threw up numerous obstacles to the agents, and
even withheld information from them, including the
now-infamous <A
href="http://www.scribd.com/doc/941768/The-Phoenix-Memo"
target=Ó_blankÓ>Phoenix Memo</A>written by an
agent in Arizona</SPAN> <SPAN lang=en-US>warning
of terrorists training in flight schools for a
possible upcoming attack. The request was denied
and agents were prevented from searching
Moussaoui's laptop, which contained information
that would have tipped the FBI off to the 9/11
plot. The Minneapolis field office Chief
Counsel,<A href="http://www.coleenrowley.com/"
target=Ó_blankÓ>Coleen Rowley</A>, has been very
public with her disgust at the conduct of FBI
management during the case and its subsequent
review, and she has <A

20-year veteran of the State Department's Foreign
service, J. Michael Springmann served 18 months as
the head of the visa section at the U.S.</SPAN>
<SPAN lang=en-US>consulate in Jeddah, Saudi
Arabia</SPAN> <SPAN lang=en-US>in 1988-89. During
that time he repeatedly rejected visa applications
from unqualified individuals only to have his
decisions overturned by the head of the consulate.
When he returned to Washington, he discovered that
the Jeddah consulate was being used as a place for
funnelling Afghan mujahedeen into the U.S. for
training, facilitated by the CIA on behalf of
their asset, Osama bin Laden. The Jeddah consulate
would be the very office that issued 15 of the
alleged 9/11 hijackers' visas to enter the United
States. After numerous complaints up the chain of
command, Springmann's contract with the State
Department was not renewed.</SPAN></DIV>

target=Ó_blankÓ>Robert Wright</A> - In the
1990s, Special Agent Robert Wright of the FBI's
Chicago</SPAN> <SPAN lang=en-US>field office
spearheaded an investigation into terrorist
financing codenamed Vulgar Betrayal. The
investigation uncovered information about Yassin
Al-Qadi, a terrorist financier who would go on to
be designated a <A
href="http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/nationworld/sns-worldtrade-kadi-ct,0,2810531.story"
target=Ó_blankÓ>global terrorist
financier</A> by the U.S.</SPAN> <SPAN
lang=en-US>treasury in the wake of 9/11. Vulgar
Betrayal led to information about the <A
href="http://www.historycommons.org/context.jsp?item=a1098alqadi#a1098alqadi"
target=Ó_blankÓ>African embassy
bombings</A> in 1998 and resulted in the
seizure of $1.4 million of terrorist financing.
Despite the investigation's remarkable success,
however, Wright was taken off of Vulgar Betrayal
in 1999 and reduced to a paper pusher. In
2002, <A
href="http://vids.rationalveracity.com/videos/960/robert-wright-judicial-watch-briefing"
target=Ó_blankÓ>Wright went public</A> with
information about how his investigations had been
systematically starved for funds, hindered and
obstructed by FBI management and revealed that he
believes 9/11 could have been prevented if he had
been allowed to continue his investigation. The
Bureau prevented him from releasing a book about
his experience. He was threatened with legal
action if he revealed any details about what he
had been investigating.</SPAN></DIV>

target=Ó_blankÓ>Indira Singh</A> - As a risk
management consultant for J.P. Morgan in 2001,
Indira Singh was tasked with implementing the next
generation of risk management software for the
firm. Working for one of the largest financial
institutions in the world, Singh wanted to choose
a reputable software vendor for the task, one with
a proven track record of working with the
sensitive information of important clients. She
solicited a presentation from Ptech, an enterprise
architecture software firm whose clients included
some of the most sensitive departments in the
U.S.</SPAN> <SPAN lang=en-US>government, including
the FBI, the Department of Defense, the Treasury,
the IRS, the US Navy and the White House. After
performing due diligence on the company, Singh
discovered that it had been started in part by
funds from Yassin Al-Qadi (the same Specially
Designated Global Terrorist that Robert Wright's
investigation had been focused on). She discovered
many other disturbing links between Ptech officers
and suspected terrorist organizations. Ptech had
been conducting tests on the interoperability of
FAA and NORAD computer systems in the event of an
emergency on the morning of 9/11. When she tried
to bring this information to the FBI in
Boston</SPAN> <SPAN lang=en-US>she was told by one
agent that she was in a better position to
investigate the case than the Bureau
was.</SPAN></DIV>
