The Kean Commission inexplicably introduced, a completely new timeline of events surrounding the responses of the FAA, NORAD and the Pentagon on 9/11 in direct contradiction to previously sworn testimony and exhibits from these commands. In most cases this evidence was presented by the same men who actually made key decisions that day.
The Kean Commission unilaterally changed the times of certain key events, negating and overruling testimony and evidence presented under oath, without having received a single new piece of evidence – either formally or informally – that contradicted or changed the evidence already received.
The Minneapolis Star Tribune reported that, Mark Dayton of Minnesota, found some egregious inconsistencies in the final report of the Kean Commission. "Dayton said NORAD officials ‘lied to the American people, they lied to congress and they lied to your 9/11 commission .." He said, a squadron of NORAD fighter planes that was scrambled was sent east over the Atlantic ocean and was 150 miles from Washington, D.C., when the third plane struck the Pentagon – ‘farther than they were before they took off.’
The mysterious and inexplicable failure of the nation’s air defenses on Sept. 11th remains the most glaring and gaping hole in the Kean Commission’s account and in the government’s version of events. Scrambling fighter aircraft was a routine occurrence for years before 9/11. Kean Commission not only failed to look at this but actually altered evidence in the preparation of its final report.
On the morning of September 11th. Vice President Dick Cheney or his immediate staff were being conducting, coordinating and/or controlling war games. He was running a completely separate command, control and communications system which was superceding any orders being issued by the NMCC, or the White House Situation Room. To accomplish that end he relied on a redundant and superior communications system maintained by the US secret service in or near the Presidential Emergency Operations Center – the bunker to which he and National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice were reportedly "rushed" after Flight 175 struck the WTC’s south tower. The Secret Service possessed radar screens which gave them, and the Vice President with real-time information as good as or better than that available to the Pentagon.
The names of those war games are known to include: Vigilant Guardian, Vigilant Warrior, Northern Guardian, Northern Vigilance, and Tripod II. All, except for Northern Vigilance and Tripod II had to do with hijacked airliners inside the continental United States, specifically within the northeast air defense sector where all four 9/11 hijackings occurred.
According to a clear record some of these exercises involved commercial airline hijackings. In some cases false blips were deliberately inserted onto FAA and military radar screens and they were present during (at least) the first attacks. This effectively paralyzed fighter response because, with only eight fighters available in the region, there were as many as 22 possible hijackings taking place. Other exercises, specifically Northern Vigilance had pulled significant fighter resources away from the northeast U.S. – just before 9/11 – into northern Canada and Alaska. In addition, a close reading of key news stories published in the Spring of 2004 revealed for the first time that some of these drills were "live-fly" exercises where actual aircraft, likely flown by remote control – were simulating the behavior of hijacked airliners in real life. All of this as the real attacks began. the fact that these exercises had never been systematically and thoroughly explored in the mainstream press..
Only one war-game exercise, Vigilant Guardian, was mentioned in a footnote to the Kean Commission report and then it was deliberately mislabeled as an exercise intended to intercept Russian bombers instead of a hijack exercise in the northeast sector.
The publicly available mass media articles about these exercises state that they were similar enough to the actual events that top NORAD personnel were confused, not sure if 9/11 was "part of the drill" or a real world event. (Source: Aviation Week & Space Technology, June 3, 2002, Newhouse News) http://911review.com/means/wargames.html
A non-military biowarfare exercise called Tripod II, was being "set up" in Manhattan on September 11th was under the direct coordination of FEMA and – by White House directive – the immediate control of the Vice President. The set up for that exercise conveniently placed a fully staffed FEMA, New York City and Department of Justice command post on Manhattan’s Pier 29 in time for it to be conveniently used as the command post after the twin towers had collapsed.
1. In what are called national special security events the US Secret Service is the supreme US agency for operational control with complete authority over the military and all civilian agencies.
2. In May of 2001, by Presidential order, Richard Cheney was put in direct command and control of all war-game and field exercise training and scheduling through several agencies, especially FEMA. This also extended to all of the conflicting and overlapping NORAD drills on that day.
3. That the tripod II exercise being set up on Sept. 10th in Manhattan was directly connected to Cheney's role in these war games/exercises.
4. A number of public officials, at the national and New York City levels, including then Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, were aware that Flight 175 was en route to lower Manhattan for 20 minutes and did nothing – absolutely nothing – to order the evacuation of or warn the occupants of the World Trade Center.
Conclusion: The 9/11 attacks were the result of deliberate planning and orchestrated efforts by identifiable leaders within the U.S. government, and the energy and financial sectors, which would provide the American empire with a pretext for war, invasion and the sequential confiscation of oil and natural gas reserves, or the key transportation routes through which they pass.

Explosives In The Twin Towers: The Evidence

Some Survivors Say 'Bombs Exploded Inside WTC'
http://www.americanfreepressnet/10_22_01/Some_Survivors_Say__Bombs_Expl/some_survivors_say__bombs_expl.html
The FEMA photograph is the fake
The plane that hit the WTC1 was indeed a small plane, much smaller than a 767. Just before it hit WTC1 it fired three (or four) missiles at the building and the impact holes from these missiles formed the resultant scar. The intention was clearly to use a small military plane to leave the impression of a Boeing 767. It was a pretty successful conjuring trick but the execution wasn't perfect and the resultant scar was rather too big. This may all sound fanciful, but I believe the video and photographic evidence and FEMA's fraudulent report prove it beyond any reasonable doubt.
http://serendipityptpi.net/wot/spencer03.htm
WTC2: the real scar measured about 37 pillars across. According to FEMA however the scar measured a mere 23 pillars in width, less than two-thirds of the true figure. It is clear also that FEMA's rendition of the shape of the scar is way off the mark.
So what did hit the South Tower? To answer this question we must look closely at all the photographic and video evidence that is available. Examination of these images shows there is good reason to believe that the plane was something other than United Airlines Flight 175, a Boeing 767 that had departed Boston's Logan Airport at 08.14 earlier that morning. http://serendipityptpi.net/wot/spencer06.htm
Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, whose seismic data and analyses
The seismic reports have told us to within a fraction of a second the exact times at which the first two planes hit their targets and 'Flight 93' crashed in Pennsylvania. They have informed us that the strike on the Pentagon caused no measurable seismic readings whatsoever. They show us that immediately before the collapse of each tower Manhattan was subjected to a massive seismic spike that had the magnitude and properties of a medium-sized underground nuclear explosion.
It is reasonable to predict that the second plane struck its target with considerably greater force than did the first plane — about 50% greater force according to one calculation I have seen.
The seismic evidence however tells a different story. As already noted, the first plane generated an impact of magnitude ML=0.9 compared with a value ML=0.7 for the second plane. Despite the fact that it was travelling much more slowly than the second plane, the first plane nonetheless managed to cause an impact 30% greater in magnitude. This is easily demonstrated by comparing the relative amplitudes of the two collisions in the graphs above.

Seismic Evidence Points to Underground Explosions Causing WTC Collapse
Two unexplained "spikes" in the seismic record from September 11 indicate huge bursts of energy shook the ground beneath the World Trade Center's twin towers — just as the buildings began to collapse.
http://www.serendipityli/wot/bollyn2.htm
The reservation situation of certain planes was kept artificially low, when coast to coast flights were booked for 20% instead of the usual 75% to minimize deaths that could cause problems.

WTC BUILDING 7
On September 11th, Towers One and Two collapsed after suffering direct hits by airliners. Building 7 was neither hit by an airliner nor damaged severely by flying debris, but at 5:20 p.m. it collapsed in the exact same accordion style of the other two towers. The official explanation by FEMA investigators claimed that WTC 7 fell as a result of burning for 7 hour.
Several weeks after the events of 9/11, Larry Silverstein, the new owner of the WTC was interviewed on TV. At this time he openly acknowledged the decision to pull Building 7. This was a public statement in which the owner of the WTC agreed to the destruction of the building.
This decision was never explained and was never questioned by the Kean Commission. The conflicting report of the FEMA investigators was also never explained. Pulling a building requires weeks, if not months of preparation. Explosives have to be carefully and strategically placed and wired. How was it possible to pull a building without first preparing for its demolition?
Larry Silverstein invested $386 million in WTC 7. On 9/11, by his own admission, Larry Silverstein ordered the demolition of his building. In February of 2002, his company won a settlement of $861 million from Industrial Risk Insurers. Do the math. No one investigated.

Close-up of WTC-7 Collapse Footage Shows
Unmistakable Demolition Charges
Looking at the upper right-hand corner of the (WTC 7) building we see a rapid series of small explosions travelling upward just as the building itself begins to fall. The size, placement and timing of these "puffs" is very consistent with squibs from cutting charges of the type used in professional controlled demolitions, and in fact nothing but small explosive charges could create such an appearance. The decreasing volume of the building from the collapse itself could not create enough pressure to cause such localized high-velocity effects, and this early in the collapse would have only created a modest overpressure.
http://st12.startlogic.com/~xenonpup/Flashes/squibs_along_southwest_corner.htm
Why was building WTC 7 pulled (demolitioned) ?
A Citigroup lawyer, for instance, recently told a congressional committee looking into the bank's role in the WorldCom mess that she couldn't provide them with all the information they sought because some of it was destroyed in the attack on the World Trade Center.
"Some further email records the committee has requested cannot be retrieved," wrote Citigroup Deputy General Counsel Jane Sherburne in an Aug. 7 letter to House Committee on Financial Services. "The backup tapes for external emails from September 1998 through December 2000, and for a short time period in September 2001, were lost when the building in which they were stored (7 World Trade Center) was destroyed in the terrorist attack on September 11, 2001."
Maybe no financial institution lost more critical documents than the Securities and Exchange Commission, which had its New York regional office at 7 World Trade Center. While the regulatory agency was fortunate in that it lost no employees in the terror attacks, it suffered setbacks in a number of long-running securities investigations.
In August, defense lawyers for several former executives of Rite Aid, who've been charged by the SEC with fraud and obstruction of justice, filed a motion seeking a delay in the trial, claiming some of the documents gathered by the SEC had been lost in the attack. SEC attorneys contend many of the original copies of those documents still exist at other locations but acknowledge it will take time to reconstruct all the evidence in the case.
The SEC says the main problem it encountered was that an index for the documents in the Rite Aid case was destroyed in the attack -- not necessarily the documents themselves.
A similar reconstruction of evidence had to take place in a decade-old insider trading case against several former executives of Motel 6, a chain of low-cost motels. The SEC settled the case against the remaining defendants in June. But before that could occur, it had to obtain a court order directing the lawyers for some of the defendants to assist the SEC in reconstructing files "that were destroyed due to the events of Sept. 11, 2001."
In the Motel 6 case, the four remaining defendants, without admitting or denying the insider-trading charges, entered into a settlement with the SEC in which they agreed to pay fines and penalties totaling $798,000. In all, the 10-year case netted $6.36 million in fines, penalties and disgorged profits for the SEC.
SEC officials won't discuss how many cases may have been impacted by the terror attacks, but they claim the lost information was limited to two weeks' worth of data stored on the agency's computers that hadn't yet been backed up.
But it's clear from talking to securities lawyers who practice before the SEC that things haven't gone as smoothly as the agency would like the public to believe.
"Regardless of what the regulators say, they lost a ton of files," says Bill Singer, a New York securities lawyer, who says one case he had pending before the SEC quickly settled because so many of the original documents were destroyed. "In my opinion it was a wholesale loss of documents." -TheStreet.com (9/09/02)
