Not necessarily. It's fairly easy for a few people at the top to manipulate things in a way which makes all the people below them unaware that they are part of a conspiracy like 9/11. For one thing, people who work for the federal government are used to working on a compartmentalized or need-to-know basis, for security reasons. They accept it as part of their job. So, when they're given an order (or not given an order to do a task as in the case of 9/11), they just do their part and don't see or even try to figure out the bigger affect of their actions or the bigger picture. In this sort of an environment, which does exist in our government, it is very easy to pull off a conspiracy like 9/11. Just look at what all our "leaders" were doing as planes were crashing into buildings, reading to schoolchildren (Bush), meeting with Senators (Meyers), working in their office (Rumsfeld), running the White House (Cheney), which is why a lot of conspiracy buffs have been pointing the finger at Cheney as the real operator behind 9/11. I know this sounds very X-Filish and looney. But, there were other things going on during the morning of 9/11/01 which could have easily diverted the attention of well-meaning government employees, who otherwise might have sensed something was amiss as planes were falling from the skies. There were apparently numerous military excercises simulating hijackings in the northeastern part of the U.S. on that morning. An easily managable task for any conspirators looking to create confusion so their plan could be implemented as designed. Noone would question the military wanting to do excercises on a particular morning. Also, time was on the side of the conspirators, the events unfolded over a period of about 1.5 hours, with the military excercises and other measures meant to slow the system down, well-meaning employees could easily be engineered to cooperate with the conspirators aims. If Cheney tells the FAA and NORAD not to scramble planes until the President has a better understanding of the sitution, who's going to question that? Who wants to go against orders and lose their job? By the time planes are scrambled, the conspiracy has completed it's mission. Well-meaning employees figure that the people at the top just didn't react fast enough to the confusing events of the day, and life goes on. It's all rather simple to those who hold the reigns of power really. Create diversions on that day to confuse people into not performing their jobs exactly as expected. Then, send out wait and see orders that will simply be followed as no one wants to jump the gun and go against a Vice Presidential order.

Re: Actually having people perform the attacks under the direction of Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, and/or Myers, would require an even bigger conspiracy. Of course, you are correct. Thus we have several of the purported "hijackers" of 9/11/01 who list their home address and their automobile registrations at the Penascola Naval Air Station. A location which last I checked was owned and operated by the U.S. military. Do you dispute this? Do you understand the implications, homey? Just wondering, Ray PS: Lee Harvey Oswald claimed he was "just a patsy". Do you dispute this, homey?
