Hey grASSo. In your profile, you've got a picture of a guy with his hand stuck inside some kind of a tape recorder, in front of a Mobile Home. It's labeled L B. Is that your picture? Were you able to free your hand? Do you allow chickens to roam freely in your trailer? <g>

Re: I made a mental note of all that Gus. Not sure I can put it all together enough for me to understand, but perhaps in time those details will come together. Well, there's one more "inconsistency" in the official 911 theory you may want to make a mental note of.... Over one year after the 911 outrage, as we coldly analyze/debrief the whole plot, what did the terrorists/Al Qaeda achieve? Answer: they merely killed 3,000 innocent Americans. But then the next question is, did such a simple objective necessitate the simultaneous hijacking of four airliners??? I mean, why take the trouble to train Arab agents to fly sophisticated Boeing aircraft, smuggle them into the US... on a whiz-bang mission that eventually fails by 50%?? Indeed, two of the four airliners were successfully "intercepted" by the USAF before they could reach their (densely populated) targets... If I were Bin Laden, I'd have dismissed the whole ploy as crazy, a wild screenplay suitable for some Hollywood producer but not for no-nonsense, professional terrorists. Here's a much simpler operation that yields the same death toll: the simultaneous bombing of two cruise ships off the coast of Alaska... in the middle of the night. A typical cruise ship carries about 1,500/2,000 passengers. Hence my assumption that 911 was initially devised as a regular hijacking operation that turned "suicidal" because of the "Massoud kicker".... Gus
