skeeter, >so were the people who bought all those puts leading up to the attack... including CIA buzzy krongard (spelling?).< There were a bunch of stocks whose business was likely to be impacted negatively that were down sharply in the days before the attack. Supposedly, some of it was explained but there is no doubt in my mind that someone traded on inside information. I don't know who it was. It could have even been someone with ties Bin Laden, but someone knew.

>>Supposedly, some of it was explained but there is no doubt in my mind that someone traded on inside information. I don't know who it was.
