9/11: Commemorating the 25th Anniversary of America’s Deadly False-Flag Operation

A close look at the events that gave rise to the war on terror, new levels of denial and gullibility, and paved the way for ensuing black ops and America’s present totalitarian surveillance state.

I don’t think there’s a person over the age of 35 who doesn’t remember exactly where they were and what they were doing when they heard the horrific news about the attacks on the morning of September 11, 2001. Every September following that fateful day, the airways are filled with obligatory news coverage marking the tragic events and the memorials held in cities and towns across the country that pay homage to the unsuspecting innocent people who lost their lives in the attacks.

Missing from the news coverage replete with somber bell-ringing ceremonies and “let us never forget” speeches, the mainstream media consistently lacks serious examination and analysis crucial to understanding the men we were told were the perpetrators. I am referring to the remarkable piloting skills of the four main hijackers who commandeered the commercial airliners used in the attacks. At the risk of overstating their aviation talents, I submit that if these guys were not on the wrong side of history, they each would have easily earned a place in the Library of Congress and the Smithsonian Museum alongside Charles Lindberg and the Wright Brothers.

The Lead Pilots in the 9/11 Attacks

The hijackers from left to right:

  • Mohamed Atta (American Airlines Flight 11)
  • Marwan al-Shehhi (United Airlines Flight 175)
  • Hani Hanjour (American Airlines Flight 77)
  • Ziad Jarrah (United Airlines Flight 93)

Talk about perseverance and a bold willingness to attempt death-defying flying maneuvers way beyond their experience and capabilities—here are four foreigners with giant visions, unencumbered by their limited English language communication skills. All four were known to have taken some flight lessons with small, single-engine airplanes, but none of them had ever flown a jet before in their life, let alone a large commercial Boeing aircraft with considerably more complex instrumentation. The idea that someone could make the transition from a small single-engine Cessna-172 travelling 100 miles an hour to a commercial airliner cruising at 500-plus miles an hour, without extensive training and experience, is not only hard to believe, but also literally impossible!

The Twin Towers

Retired Captain Dan Hanley is a civilian military and commercial airline pilot with a Boeing B-777 certification requiring a minimum of 1,500 hours of flight time. He has accrued 20,000 flight hours in 15 different aircraft and in 2003 he had over 35 years under his belt as a United Airlines captain.

Captain Hanley currently serves as director and public spokesperson for a global grassroots effort called 9/11 Pilot Whistleblowers. His website details some sobering facts about AA Flight 11 (a Boeing-757) and UA Flight 175 (a Boeing-767), two enormous jet aircraft that sliced through the North and South Towers at the World Trade Center (WTC) on September 11.

The flight path of American Flight 11 was basically a straight-in approach from the north into the North Tower of the World Trade Center at an incredible speed. The precision required to execute the maneuver performed would be the equivalent to accelerating a large semi-tractor trailer to over 500 mph and driving it through a Jiffy Lube without scraping the sides of the truck and without ever having driven the truck before.

United Flight 175 approached the South Tower of the World Trade Center from the south in a descending left-hand turn accelerating to 590 mph. Within 12 seconds to impact, the aircraft made a slight left turn with a bank angle of twenty degrees to precisely strike the building. Had the aircraft not made this turn at exactly that moment with the correct angle of bank, the aircraft would have missed the building by 800 feet, a maneuver that even the most experienced pilots could not have performed at that speed.

Remote Controlled Aircraft — Who Woulda Thunk It?

In the mid-1990s, a system was developed and produced called the uninterruptible autopilot. This bad boy was designed to prevent would-be hijackers from commandeering a commercial aircraft in flight by remotely taking control of the aircraft autopilot and flight navigation systems and routing it to an airport where a safe auto landing could be made. The key component of this innovation is its finality. Once this system is engaged, the pilots cannot disengage the autopilot/navigation systems by any means and are along for the ride.

With respect to 9/11, Captain Hanley contends:

There were no Muslim hijackers at the controls of the 9/11 aircraft. The aircraft were electronically hijacked through employment of a system called the uninterruptible autopilot that enables a remote source to take complete control of the aircraft autopilot and flight management computers and guide it to its target.

A Gift from the Heavens Above

If one were looking for clear evidence that miracles sometimes can and do happen in times of national emergencies, they needn’t look further than the discovery of Mohamed Atta’s passport found a few blocks from the WTC crash site. It’s hard to fathom but there are unpatriotic skeptics still asking: How could Mohamed Atta’s passport survive the fireball explosion that supposedly cremated him and turned the plane’s fuselage, and every desk, chair, door, and office fixture into powdered ash?

The official narrative—an account fed to the mockingbird media, who then turned around and sold it to the American public—goes something like this:

Mohamed Atta’s passport was jolted out of his pocket the moment Flight 11 hit the building. It then flew out of the incinerated aircraft and sailed to the ground where it was found in two feet of debris by an unnamed citizen. The passport finally ended up in the hands of investigators in readable condition, all within 48 hours of the collapse of the buildings. The passport offered 9/11 investigators the solid evidence they needed to prove that Atta, considered to be the mastermind of the 9/11 attacks, was in fact flying American Airlines Flight 11 that crashed into the North Tower.

Case closed; end of discussion.

An official Egyptian passport and a flight data and cockpit voice recorder.

It is important to note that even though Egyptian passports are made of high-quality paper with embedded fibers, they are still subject to fire and water damage. On the other hand, flight data and cockpit voice recorders are constructed with two shells of stainless steel in addition to a heat-protected material shield designed to withstand pressure down to 6,000 meters and heat of 1,100 degrees centigrade.

Unsurprisingly, the emergence of Mohamed Atta’s passport and the disintegration of Flight 11’s data and cockpit voice recorders had Boeing’s designers, engineers, and metal experts scratching their heads.

Flight 93: “Now You See It . . . Now You Don’t”

The total disappearance of UA Flight 93 reported to have plunged nose first into an abandoned strip mine in Shanksville, Pennsylvania on the morning of September 11 sent shockwaves around the world, especially the entertainment community. Top magicians and illusionists from Las Vegas to Paris were absolutely stunned. They couldn’t comprehend how Ziad Jarrah, the 26-year-old Lebanese-born hijacker, was able to fly, maneuver, and crash a 100-ton Boeing-757 into the surface of the earth and leave behind a 10-foot crater with no trace of a 155-foot fuselage, wings, or engines.

Equally baffled were the good residents of Shanksville. Shortly after the crash, volunteer firefighter Rick King arrived at the crash site and later recounted his experience with a local reporter:

We drove back to that road and where the road ended, that’s where the plane was. And the only thing I could tell, I get out and I heard this thing. I felt the explosion, saw the fireball, and I get up there and I’m thinking, where is it? Just debris, small pieces of debris, and the trees were singed from the ground there.

WTAE-TV Pittsburg reporter Jim Parsons was at the crash site surveying the debris field and capturing footage while broadcasting live:

You know, at first, I wasn’t even sure that these were pieces of the plane. They’re so small . . . and so indistinguishable. You can’t tell whether it’s a piece of a fuselage, a piece of a seat—you don’t know what it is.

The remains of charred and mangled dead passengers are always a solid indication that a horrific airline disaster has actually occurred. In worst-case scenarios, where passengers are burnt beyond recognition, coroners have the option to employ the use of dental records to identify victims. One would expect that a downed Boeing-757 with a seating capacity of 200 would have produced a sizeable number of deceased passengers. To the bewilderment of Somerset County coroner Wallace Miller, this was not the case. On 9/11, Miller was summoned to the crash site and couldn’t believe his eyes:

It looked like someone gouged about a 10-foot wide, 10-foot-deep trough through the strip-mine area. When you looked in, it was just covered with dirt. There was nothing there that you could really say was an airplane.

Ernie Stuhl, Shanksville’s mayor, had a similar reaction:

My brother-in-law and a friend of mine were among the first ones to arrive . . . even before the firefighters arrived. Everybody was rather dumbfounded because they had been sent to an airplane crash site and there is no plane. Just a hole.

No Plane? No Problem. We Got this.

Diligent FBI investigators worked tirelessly to get to the bottom of the mysterious disappearance of United Flight 93 and have concluded that the hijacked Boeing-757 was “buried in the ground.”

In a 2011 FBI posting titled “Ten Years After: The FBI Since 9/11,” the bureau reported on the findings of their investigators:

The largest pieces of airplane debris they saw were parts of the landing gear, an engine, and a piece of fuselage about the size of a car hood. The plane was utterly destroyed because the hijackers drove it into an abandoned strip mine at more than 580 miles an hour at a sharp angle. Much of the plane and its contents were found beneath the soft dirt [emphasis added]. The impact shot debris into the bordering woods and into a nearby pond.

Excavators removed dirt and debris for thorough sifting, initially by hand. Evidence technicians found the flight data recorder about 12 feet below the surface and the cockpit voice recorder about 25 feet deep.

Coincidence theorists might be interested to know that similar to the miraculous discovery of Mohamed Atta’s intact passport near the Twin Towers, agents from the FBI’s Pittsburg field office also had guardian angels on their team. The FBI’s 2011 posting goes on to report:

The FBI also scoured an adjacent field, a wooded area, and a retention pond. All victims were identified. The site also yielded several key pieces of evidence, including two passports and a credit card from the hijackers, and a copy of the same martyr letter found in the belongings of hijackers of the other planes [emphasis added].

United Flight 77: The Pentagon’s Three-Ring Circus

Out of the four main hijackers, hands down, 23-year-old Hani Hanjour tops the list of master pilots in the 9/11 attacks. Hanjour’s precision piloting skills and his ability to defy the laws of physics dwarf the track record of American flying ace, Chuck Yeager or any other crackerjack pilot to traverse the blue skies since the dawn of aviation.

With pinpoint accuracy, Hani, a Saudi national with sad puppy-dog eyes, was able to fly a Boeing-757 with a wingspan of 124 feet 10 inches, a length of 155 feet 3 inches from nose to tail, and a height of 44 feet into the first floor of the Pentagon, creating a hole approximately 16 to 20 feet wide. He was able to accomplish this while traveling at a speed of 580 mph. This is truly amazing considering that the height of the Pentagon is approximately 73 feet, and the first floor is 14 feet to the ceiling or at most 15 feet. Hani’s aviation skills were so exceptional, the son-of-a-bitch was able to fly the massive jet into the first-floor window without blowing out the second-floor window, despite the Boeing’s 44-foot tail.

Equally astonishing, we were told that after the initial impact into Wedge 1, UA Flight 77 continued on and penetrated the first three of the Pentagon’s five concentric rings, leaving holes approximately 16 to 20 feet in diameter.

Similar to the crash site at Shanksville, to date there are no photographs showing the remains of the plane’s luggage, seats, nose, fuselage, wheels, wings, or either of the two mammoth titanium-steel Rolls Royce engines weighing 6 tons a pop.

9/11: A Joint US / Israeli Operation.
Who Would Have Ever Guessed?

Many things can be said about Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his despicable genocidal policies responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands of Palestinians, but most folks are unaware of his remarkable ability to foresee the future, most notably his 1995 prediction of Islam’s destruction of the World Trade Center.

In a 2006 interview with CNN, Netanyahu stated:

Well, I was getting this question in the 1990s, and I said that the West really doesn’t understand militant Islam. So, I wrote a book in 1995, and I said that if the West doesn’t wake up to the suicidal nature of militant Islam, the next thing you’ll see is that the militant Islam is bringing down the World Trade Center.

On September 20, 2001, nine days after the attacks on the WTC, Netanyahu was quick to cash in on the tragedy. While the families of victims were grieving, and the country was still trying to process who, what, and why, Netanyahu presented a statement to the US Government Reform Committee titled, “We Have Received a Wake-up Call From Hell.” His statement included the following:

Each one of us today understands that we are all targets, that our cities are vulnerable, and that our values are hated with an unmatched fanaticism that seeks to destroy our societies and our way of life. I am certain that I speak on behalf of my entire nation when I say today, we are all Americans — in grief, as in defiance [emphasis added]. In grief, because my people have faced the agonizing horrors of terror for many decades, and we feel an instant kinship with both the victims of this tragedy and the great nation that mourns its fallen brothers and sisters. In defiance, because just as my country continues to fight terrorism in our battle for survival, I know that America will not cower before this challenge.

Four days later (September 24, 2001) The New Republic magazine was quick to toss their hat into the ring. They published an article (“Counting, Israel, the United States, and evil”) that ended with the tagline:

The murderers in the skies have taught us all too well. We are all Israelis now.

Some Things Never Change

Prior to 9/11, Israel was not viewed with high regard in the eyes of the American majority, especially after Israel’s bombing of Lebanon in July 1981. After 9/11, according the Mr. Netanyahu, American opinion polls shifted dramatically.

A segment of Democracy Now! (April 17, 2008) quoted the Israeli newspaper Ma’ariv that reported that Benjamin Netanyahu has publicly said the September 11 attacks have been good for Israel. Netanyahu said, “We are benefiting from one thing, and that is the attack on the Twin Towers and Pentagon, and the American struggle in Iraq.” Netanyahu then reportedly said that these events “swung American public opinion in our favor.”

Ehud Barak a Mastermind of 9/11

Ehud Barak was prime minister of Israel from July 1999 until March 7, 2001, when he was replaced by Ariel Sharon. Barak’s credentials and track record had him primed for the gig. Previous positions held by Barak include Head of Defense Planning and Budgeting, Head of the Israeli Intelligence Community, Chief of the General Staff of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), Minister of the Interior in Prime Minister Itzhak Rabin’s cabinet, Minister of Foreign Affairs in the Shimon Peres cabinet, and Labor Party Chairman.

Author, researcher, and filmmaker Anthony J. Hilderhas dug deep into the weeds and reported:

When Sharon assumed power in March 2001, Barak came to America.  He supposedly came to the United States to work as a special advisor for Electronic Data Systems and as a partner with SCP Partners, a Mossad-run private equity company focused on “security-related” work – but this was merely his cover. His real assignment was to oversee the terror attacks of 9/11.

As a partner with SCP Partners, Barak was well placed to supervise the false-flag terror operation. The complex false-flag terror attacks of 9/11 required that the mastermind of the operation be in the country to manage the critical details.

Hilder went on to report:

One of the key aspects of 9/11 that Barak needed to arrange was the production and application of an advanced form of super-thermite, an extremely powerful explosive produced using nano-technology [emphasis added]. In 2001, SCP Partners happened to have a suitable company in their portfolio, a private company called Metallurg Holdings, Inc., which has its office in Wayne, Pennsylvania. Today, SCP has another company called Advanced Metallurgical Group, N.V. (AMG) in its portfolio. AMG and Metallurg actually share the same phone number and address at 435 Devon Park Drive in Wayne. SCP Private Equity Partners L.P. and its management company named which controls the metallurgical subsidiaries, are also both based at this address. AMG/Safeguard International have several subsidiaries,including one that specializes in the production of atomized aluminum (a crucial component of super-thermite) and others which manufacture specialized coatings of nano-composites.

Hilder astutely noted:

Through these companies, SCP Partners, which included Ehud Barak from 2001 until 2007, clearly had the capability in 2001 to produce nano-composite explosives like the super-thermite used to pulverize the World Trade Center on 9/11. There are very few companies or countries in the world that have the capability to manufacture super-thermite, but Ehud Barak’s company did – in 2001. Osama Bin Laden and Al Qaida, on the other hand, could not have anything to do with the super-thermite found in the dust of the pulverized Twin Towers. The government version is a pack of lies designed to excuse a pre-planned war of aggression against Afghanistan.

Super-Thermite: The Right Stuff

Dr. Steven E. Jones revealed evidenceof tiny red-gray chips of super-thermite found in the dust of the World Trade Center, proving that many tons of this nano-composite high explosive had been applied to the interior surfaces of the Twin Towers, probably to the undersides of the floor pans and the elevator shafts. Cutter charges of thermite were used to cut the core columns, removing any resistance to the collapses. Thermite is mainly composed of aluminum and iron oxide particles. The smaller the particles, the bigger the bang. The particles in the super-thermite used on 9/11 were super small, nano-size. According to Dr. Jones, they created a powerful heat-producing incendiary combined with an organic compound to create intense gas pressure.

9/11: America’s “New Pearl Harbor”

The tragic events that occurred on September 11, 2001 are often dubbed America’s “New Pearl Harbor,” referring to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, an American outpost in the South Pacific where upward of 2,000 people were killed on December 7, 1941.

Both events have similarities to the extent that they were allowed to happen despite advance knowledge and both events helped sway public opinion, giving America’s military industrial complex the green light to initiate war against Japan and Iraq respectively. However, the differences are massive and hugely profound.

At Pearl Harbor, there is clear evidence, documented film footage of Japanese war planes bombing American ships, planes, and base facilities, along with eyewitness accounts of American military personnel who were able to see the facesof low-flying Japanese fighter pilots. On 9/11 there were no foreign planes attacking American cities. Outside of passports magically recovered from the incinerated, non-existing remains of commercial airliners, no one can unequivocally identify the attackers who by all accounts were just about qualified to operate a fucking rickshaw, let alone fly a sophisticated Boeing-757.

Probably the most troubling and significant difference between the two events is that one attack was external and the other was an internal, carefully coordinated false-flag operation that gave birth to the Patriot Act ratified in 2001, a demonic piece of legislation that ushered in tighter government controls, mass track-and-trace surveillance, censorship, and severe limitations on due process for US citizens and non-citizens alike.

Exactly where America’s future is headed is anyone’s guess. But current efforts to federalize law enforcement in American cities is a fair indication that things ain’t lookin’ too good.

Author’s Note:

While the scope of evidence presented in my article represents a significant piece of the 9/11 puzzle, it is only a small portion of the overwhelming available evidence dispelling the official narrative that four planes were hijacked on 9/11 by Islamic terrorists, two of which were responsible for the symmetrical collapse of the buildings in the World Trade Center Complex.
