Description	A complex and spectacular set of events in New York and Washington. The US government was quick to blame Al Qaeda, though no evidence of guilt was presented and there is much suspicion about what Al Qaeda really is. In the USA 9-11 assisted the Patriot Act's roll back of civil liberties, the stepping up of domestic surveillance and the financial advancement of the military industrial complex. Abroad 9-11 helped launched wars on Iraq and Afghanistan that had been planned long before.

The Septmber 11^th attacks (later referred to as 9-11 for short) was the defining deep event of the 21st century so far. It was quickly followed by the Amerithrax plots, in which military grade anthrax was sent from US military facilities to some US politicians who were opposing the swift introduction of new laws on "terrorism". Although now seen by most people as a false flag attack it was not generally recognised as such by the US public until the many years afterwards.

Official Narrative

Over a decade after the events, most readers will be all too familiar with the '19 men with boxcutters' official narrative. It is increasingly understood to be no more than a convenient cover story that has worn very thin. Almost everyone is agreed on the lack of integrity of the officials who came up with the official story, and a 2015 survey revealed support for a review amongst the Canadian population.

Official Inquiries

There have been two official inquiries. The first enquiry, by its own admission not in "the blame game about what went wrong from an intelligence perspective" produced a report from which 28 pages were completely censored until July 2016 when redacted copies were released. The second, the "9/11 Commission" was termed a "cover-up" even by one of its members.

Challenges

The US government's official narrative has been denounced in the UN, the EU parliament and in many national parliaments including Belgium, Italy, Japan and Iran. Francesco Cossiga, former Italian President, stated in 2008 in Italy’s most widely read newspaper that 9/11 was carried out by the CIA and the Mossad.

Mark Gorton terms Kevin Ryan's Another Nineteen: Investigating Legitimate 9/11 Suspects "the best book I have yet read on the topic of 9/11".

Problems

Legions of insiders have testified that the official story didn't fit their experiences of that day (some of them have suffered premature deaths in suspicious circumstances). A mound of of factual evidence has been produced, and published in peer-reviewed scientific journals, pointing to highly improbable accidents and glaring anomalies about the official story. The US government has frequently cited "national security" in an effort to obscure their behaviour on that day (and the commercially-controlled media) appears to have been subjected to censorship on the topic.

Paul Craig Roberts wrote that "If such a thing had actually happened, there would have been demands from the White House, from Congress, and from the media for an investigation. Officials would have been held accountable for their failures. Heads would have rolled. Instead... The worst security failure in history resulted in not a single firing. No one was held responsible."

Drills

Full article: 9-11/Drills

A quite unprecedented number of drills were scheduled on or about the day of 9/11, and on or about the topic of Ossama Bin-Laden hijacking planes and flying them into buildings. Of these, perhaps the most important were those by the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD). These moved the majority of the US fighter jets so far from the Northeast Air Defense Sector that they could not reach New York or Washington in time. Moreover, they used "live injects" i.e. inserted fake blips onto the air traffic control which confused the operators who could not tell the exercise from the real events of that day.

Air defence failure

Full article: 9-11/Air Defence

The drills described above contributed in part to the failure of the US air defence on 9/11. However, multiple other factors also played a part (which are also unexplained by the 9/11 Commission's report. One was the change on June 1, 2001 of the procedure for dealing with hijackings which clarified that the Secretary of Defense much be contacted before shooting down a plane (allowing Dick Cheney to effectively order a stand down just by being unavailable. Another contributing factor was the fact that key personnel had just been changed and/or unavailable on the day.

Response

George W. Bush is informed by a Secret Service handler of the plane that hit the WTC tower on 9/11. He continues reading the story about a goat to the class

George W. Bush had no personal response to being informed about the attacks, something which was not reported upon at the time, and only emerged years(?) later. His failure to act contrasts with a slick machine which went into action (for example issuing the Patriot Act) by the [deep politician]]s who had prepared the 9/11 event. While an obvious windfall for "security" contractors, 9/11 was exploited by the cabal to profit both at home and abroad.

Political exploitation

At home, the event was used to launch a “Global War on Terrorism” (GWOT), under which banner a number of new laws have been introduced, and older ones have been rewritten - including prohibitions of torture, murder, and indefinite detention. Global Research talks of "The derogation of civil liberties and the installation of an Orwellian police state apparatus within Western countries." Abroad, the event was used as a casus belli for the resource wars, including invasions of first Afghanistan and then Iraq, although in 2016 Iran has been found legally reponsible by US courts. In 2016, increased talk of "the 28 pages", suggesting that the event might also be used as a pretext to invade Saudi Arabia.

Peter Dale Scott writes that "Starting in 2001, both law and freedom have been progressively eroded. International comity, which depends on each state not doing to others what they would not want done to them, has been supplanted, at least for a while, by U.S. unilateral military engagement without constraint, acting without fear of retribution. Drone killings in far corners of the world have now become routine, causing more than an estimated 2000 Pakistani deaths, the vast majority of them untargeted civilians, and over 75 percent of them under President Obama. The preemptive war against Iraq, despite being proven both unwarranted and counterproductive, has been followed by the preemptive bombing of Libya, and the prospect of still further campaigns against Syria and Iran... 9/11 itself should be seen as a dialectical outcome of America’s imperial expansion and simultaneous decay — a process inevitably afflicting those superstates that amass and retain more power than is necessary for the orderly management of their own affairs."

Legal Action

97% of victims' family members accepted money from the 9-11/Compansation fund and in so doing agreed not to be involved in legal action about the attacks. Stanley Hilton attempted to prosecute cabal members for their involvement, but was told that since they were employed by the US government, they had "sovereign immunity" from such lawsuits.

In 2011, U.S. District Judge George Daniels blamed Iran, the Taliban and al Qaeda for the attacks, and demanded that Iran pay over $10 billion. US trial judges twice ruled that Saudi Arabia is immune from prosecution under the federal Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, but in 2013, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New York revived a lawsuit in light of a 2011 decision that had allowed similar claims to proceed against Afghanistan. In September 2015, George Daniels ruled further that Saudi Arabia had "sovereign immunity" from prosecution in regard to 9-11.

Perpetrators

While there is a huge amount of evidence that the US defences were stymied with complicity of senior figures in the US government (i.e. The cabal), confirmation that the attack was not a surprise is to be found in the fact that the events were covered up rather than investigated. Researchers differ on whether the cabal let it happen on purpose (LIHOP) or whether thay made it happen on purpose (MIHOP). Mark Gorton suggests that the 9/11 operation was planned by George H.W. Bush although he admits that he has no direct evidence linking him. Chris Bollyn places the blame squarely on the Mossad, and there does indeed seem to be a serious case to answer - summarised on the 9-11/Israel did it subpage.

1993 World Trade Center bombing	“The 1993 WTC bombing created the necessary pretext for a massive engineering upgrade of the WTC complex. The purpose of the 1993 WTC bombing was not to bring down the WTC. A truck bomb could not bring down a structure as large as the WTC. The purpose of the 1993 WTC bombing was to create a rationale for a “security upgrade” of the WTC complex. And for this purpose, the 1993 WTC bombing succeeded perfectly. According to Alan Reiss, the PANYNJ’s World Trade Center Director, “After the 1993 bombing, we implemented a ten-year redevelopment program. We were spending a half a billion dollars on upgrades. It was an engineer’s dream”. After the 1993 bombing, the PANYNJ brought in Kroll Associates to do a “complete security analysis”. The executive director of the Port Authority emphasized the importance of Kroll’s work at the WTC by saying, “We have such confidence in [Kroll] that I have followed every one of their recommendations. The person who led Kroll’s work on the WTC was Brian Michael Jenkins.”	Mark Gorton
Coleen Rowley	“I began a long time ago right after 9/11 being appalled by the fact that this cover-up was beginning, and then seeing this so-called war on terror began, and again had very little connection to what I knew what was behind that the terrorist attacks, and seeing terrorism grow. In the world right now if we wanted to be safer you do something, but you don’t do something that makes the problem worse.”	Coleen Rowley
George H. W. Bush	“I have seen no evidence directly linking George H.W. (Poppy) Bush directly to the 9/11 attacks, but just as physicists can detect the presence of a black hole by the actions of other bodies around it, so the massive force of George H.W. Bush in the 9/11 op can be inferred. Many people extremely close to Poppy Bush were actively involved in the 9/11 op, including: his son oldest son, George W. Bush; his youngest son, Marvin Bush; Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Prince Bandar, the Iran Contra network, and the BCCI network.”	George H. W. Bush
Max Cleland	“As each day goes by, we learn that this government knew a whole lot more about these terrorists before September 11 than it has ever admitted.”	Max Cleland
Niaz Khan	“I could not believe my own eyes. It was like everything I had said, everything I had been told by al-Qaeda. I was in no doubt. Same plan. Perhaps someone from the training camp was on board one of those planes. Perhaps, if I had not run away, I would have been there.”	Niaz Khan
Operation Gladio/B	“The 9/11 attacks were a global state terror operation permitted by the administration of the USA, which had foreknowledge of the operation yet remained intentionally unresponsive in order to make war against Afghanistan and Iraq. To put it briefly, the 9/11 events were an instance of the strategy of tension enacted by political and economic powers in the USA to seek advantages for the oil and arms industries.”	Ferdinando Imposimato

This is actually fairly patchy and by no means the last word on the subject; 9/11 was a hugely complex affair. However, there is a lot of information on this page and its subpages, and it gives an idea of the scope of the deception.
