SMOKING GUN: The evidence that may hang G.W. Bush Part I Part II Part III Part IV Part V The Pentagon tragedy by Cheryl Seal, Unknown News One of the things that has bothered me since the morning of 9/11 is how little attention the Pentagon tragedy received. All you could hear screamed from the media and White House for months was WTC! WTC! WTC! Heroes of Flight 93! Heroes of Flight 93! It was an endless litany I believe it is because of all the events of 9/11, the crash of Flight 77 into the Pentagon was the most telling ... it was the hottest, smokiest of the smoking guns. The key to the whole mystery may well lie in this five-sided building built by FDR's administration. First, here's a little long-overdue background on the Pentagon. THE HISTORY OF THE PENTAGON When war broke out in Europe in 1939, even before the U.S. entered the conflict our War Department was gearing up for the possibility. However, there was no real home for the Department of Defense Cost estimates for the original project was $35 million One problem Congress wrangled over was what to do with the building once WWII was over. Although some wanted to turn it into a warehouse, most people assumed that the building would become a veterans hospital. It is very telling that no one believed there would be a need for 40,000 defense department workers after the War. That was because no one foresaw that war was soon to become a way of life In any case, classic monster of a building (over 5 million square feet!) that we call the Pentagon was begun in 1941 a few months before Pearl Harbor (the appropriations bill was signed by FDR in Aug. 1941) Spurred to heroic efforts by the declaration of war in December, the construction crews Because a war was on, reinforced concrete was used instead of steel in most of the building's structure (in contrast to the WTC, which was a mass of steel beams). There were no elevators In 1993, the Clinton administration decided to upgrade the Pentagon, for many reasons, no least of which was the growing concern over terrorist attacks. In addition to new plumbing, the upgrade included putting in heavy duty fireproofing in the walls, reinforcing the walls, and improving security in general. The final reconstruction strategy called for the work to be divided into five "wedges," each wedge encompassing a corner and a rectangle of the Building. The first wedge to be tackled was the one facing west, covering 1.2 million square feet. By September 2000, work on this wedge was about 70% complete. The wedge was supposed to have been completely done by July 2001, but, as with rebuilding any old "house," more problems kept being uncovered. For example, all sorts of interesting goodies were found in the walls: a secure vault no one knew about, old whiskey bottles (hmm, wonder who went to such lengths to hide their booze!), and other items. Then of course, there were supports that needed more reinforcement, asbestos to be removed, etc. Among the improvements made to Wedge One: Blast resistant windows and brick backup walls behind the building's limestone outer facade. These inner walls contain a metal fabric mesh similar to the mesh used in vehicle air bags. This mesh was designed specifically to CONTAIN DEBRIS FRAGMENTS in the event of a blast. THE BLOODY MORNING OF SEPT. 11 On the morning of Sept 11, 2001, about 20,000 people were at work in the Pentagon. Almost no one was in Wedge one, except workers who were moving furniture in As mentioned in Smoking Gun 2 & 3, the Bush administration had PLENTY of information that would lead them to believe the Pentagon and other major national landmarkers were at high risk of a terrorist attack, especially in the summer and fall of 2001. Many warnings had come over the previous 8 years that the Pentagon could be a target of a terrorist attack, not only that but part of a multiple-strike terrorist attack. In fact, this possibility seemed so plausible that in November 2000, a disaster response exercise was held by the Military District of D.C. that simulated a plane hitting the Pentagon. So, Sept. 11 finds Bush and several other key administrators safely removed from D.C. So, while the Bush administration and its pals were maneuvering into the safest possible positions, the folks at the Pentagon (and the workers and "expendable" CEOs at the WTC, of course) were left to their fate, no warning given to them at all. Given the above info on the administration's awareness of the threat to the Pentagon, it seems reasonable to expect that the MINUTE the news was heard about the WTC being hit that the Pentagon should have been evacuated IMMEDIATELY as a precaution until further notice. At the very least, after the SECOND TOWER was hit! At that point the multiple-strike scenario should have been so hideously obvious. Yet the workers were left at their posts like sitting ducks. Was this incompetence, intent to kill, or ... was it something else? Let's try applying a different hypothesis and see how the pieces fit. HYPOTHESIS: That person or persons unknown in the Bush administration were involved in planning the attack on the Pentagon. Let's examine the likely objectives of the Perpetrator(s)s and their objectives according to this hypothesis compared to actual events. Perpetrator's objectives in bold. 1. minimize loss of life while creating a terrorist event of frightening proportions: ACTUAL EVENTS: 1. Published reports following 9/11 say the number of passengers on all four hijacked flights was remarkably light 2. The plane struck the almost empty, but newly reinforced, fire resistant wedge. In fact, the plane underwent an elaborate maneuver to be able to line its trajectory up with Wedge One 3. No one in the Pentagon had been put on alert CONCLUSION: In their own sick way the perpetrators tried to keep the loss of life minimized. They kept the number of passengers on the planes to a minimum, then made sure the plane would hit Wedge One, a well-reinforced fire-resistant area where few people would be that day. In addition, they did not issue alerts because they assumed emergency evacuation might place workers in greater danger 2. Eliminate any trace of the plane ACTUAL EVENTS: 1. Flight 77 was a Boeing 757, an aircraft that is about 60 feet long, with a wingspan of 125 feet. Yet it appears to have left essentially not a trace of material inside the building. Brig. Gen. Arthur F. "Chip" Diehl III, Air Force, gave this first hand account of the crash site: "No one could believe the catastrophic damage 2. Several accounts and filmed shots of the event suggest an explosion OUTSIDE the wedge. (see http://www.bosankoe.btinternet.co.uk). Construction foreman Joe Harrington, standing in parking lot near the impact point said: "It seemed like it made impact just before the wedge. It was like a Hollywood movie or something. Thank God all of our crew got out." 3. Although there was seismic activity associated with the WTC event and Flight 93, both of which involved direct impacts with a solid object, no significant seismic activity was recorded for the Pentagon explosion. CONCLUSION: The plane exploded and was essentially vaporized the split second before actual impact with the wall. What actually struck and penetrated the Wedge was not the solid body of the plane but a fireball from the explosion 3. You do not want this airplane intercepted or shot down, because your plot would be revealed if too much evidence becomes accessible (even in the form of plane fragments). ACTUAL EVENTS: 1. The transponder in this plane was turned off 2. Even though it was known by about 8:55 that Flight 77 had been hijacked and that the Pentagon could be a target, no defensive moves are made to protect the Pentagon. F-16s are finally scrambled into the air, but too late. These planes, by the way, are scrambled out of Langley Air Force base. While Langley is about 130 miles southwest of the Pentagon, Bolling AFB just across the Potomac from the Pentagon, is at most 5 miles southeast while Andrews is 10 miles. The Langley F-16 left the ground two minutes before the Pentagon was hit. In any case, I find it extremely hard to believe that the most important military command structure in the U.S. is not defended by surface to air missiles! I mean, we are supposed to believe that there are antiaircraft weapons atop the White House but NOT deployed anywhere near the Pentagon? Give us a break! 4. You want to make absolutely sure that this is as precision hit ACTUAL EVENTS: 1. Eyewitness observers say that Flight 77 performed a 180-degree "G" turn before diving for the center of the long wall of Wedge One. The plane was estimated to be rocketing at an estimated speed of 400 mph. Several experienced pilots have claimed that the final maneuver of the 757 could not have been performed by a human pilot because of the tremendous G-forces that would have been exerted, rending even the simplest movements exceedingly difficult (picture your arms each suddenly weighing about 100 pounds and each finger about 10). 2. Eyewitnesses and the evidence of a security camera (see http://www.bosankoe.btinternet.co.uk/) show a fiery explosion OUTSIDE the wall. 3. The transponder was OFF. CONCLUSION: The plane was remotely controlled by a command transmitter system at least in the final minutes. There was an explosive device on board that was detonated immediately before impact, probably remotely controlled as well. The timing, trajectory, etc. may have been generated by a software program of some sort that could work this out to the millisecond. The plane's own transponder would have had to have been turned off so that it's operation would not interfere with a second transponder placed aboard by the perpetrators While the workers in the Pentagon who were to die on 9/11 were putting in their last week, serving their country at the nation's military nerve center, one of the co-perpetrators of WTC was walking the same halls, escorted as the special guest of the Bush administration. September 4: Lt. General Mahmoud Ahmad, former director of the ISI (the Pakistani version of the CIA), arrives in D.C. In the days leading up to 9/11, Ahmad spent time in the State Department, at CIA headquarters, and at the Pentagon. Wonder if during his visit he passed one of the men or women he was to help murder? Not long before arriving in D.C., Ahmad had overseen the wiring of $100,000 to Mohammad Atta, one of the hijackers aboard one of the planes striking the WTC. This revelation was made in October, after 9/11 by Indian intelligence sources and reported in the Times of India. The news was not reported by U.S. officials or American journalists. PLEASE READ IMPORTANT POSTSCRIPT: WHAT DOES INDIA KNOW THAT FRIGHTENS BUSH ENOUGH TO THREATEN HER WITH NUCLEAR WAR? Sept. 9: While Ahmad is in D.C., Commander Ahmad Shah Masood, leader of the Northern Alliance, was assassinated by persons connected to the ISI. The 47-year old Masood was a wildly popular, charismatic leader known to Afghans as the "Lion of Panjsher." His biggest goal: the true freedom and independence of Afghans. Fiercely independent and anti-interventionist, he would most certainly have opposed the Bush administration's war plans and would not have played ball with any oil pipeline scheme. The Cold War Clan (as I call the Bushes, Kissinger, Rumsfeld and the rest of the power-hungry old fossils in charge) have never had a use for charismatic leaders WHAT DOES INDIA KNOW? From all of the accumulated evidence, there is little doubt in my mind that Indian intelligence has the goods on the Bush administration. It was Indian intelligence that "discovered" the links between ISI's Mahmoud Ahmad and the WTC attacks. We suspect this connection was, of course, already known to the Bush administration, who, for all anyone knows, supplied the $100,000. But, according to several sources, Indian intelligence knows far more than this. One Dehli government source told a reporter with Agence France Press last October: "The evidence we have supplied to the US [re: the ISI-WTC connection] is of a much wider range and depth than just one piece of paper linking a rogue general to some misplaced act of terrorism." So, if India is the potential source of Bush's downfall, then what better way to silence India than to threaten her, via our now totally dependent "ally" Pakistan (complete with its fraudulently elected president), with nuclear annihilation? Or is this latest "global world crisis" merely yet another Bush-engineered ploy designed to divert attention away from the real danger Cheryl may be contacted at cherylseal@hotmail.com. |
