Why Understanding 9/11 is Crucial to Our Future Vers. 13 by Ian Woods, Publisher/Editor Global Outlook www.GlobalOutlook.ca Wolfe Hall – London Public Library Wednesday February 17, 2010 7:00 pm THE BILLING ~ As most Canadians realize, the issue of 9/11 and what really happened that day is far from settled. With the mainstream media in deep denial over the evidence brought forward by scores of respected scientists, engineers, architects, and even military and intelligence officers, the burden has fallen on nonofficial bodies to bring the evidence into public view. Mr. Woods will present 26 major anomalies that undermine the official story. He will make it abundantly clear in his review of the evidence that no “theories” are involved. The fairy tale of 19 crazed Muslim/Arab hijackers allegedly flying four commercial aircraft for 1-3/4 hours without the US Air Force firing a shot is now known as the “official conspiracy theory.” It has more holes in it than a Swiss cheese. With far more expertise to back up his claims than any media outlet can boast, Ian Woods examines the anatomy of 10 “false flag” attacks that changed history and acted as precedents for what really happened on the morning of September 11 2001. Our sad history of bogus terrorism and endless wars of hegemony and resource theft will continue until the public demands and gets a full investigation. INTRO ~ Good evening everyone. Thank you George for your kind introduction. Thank you all the members of Citizen’s Inquest for putting on this event. Our topic this evening is: 1. Why Understanding 9/11 is Crucial to Our Future I’m going to be referencing Global Outlook’s latest Issue 13 this evening. Those of you who wish to can get more details on this topic at the Global Outlook table in the lobby. 1 2. This evening we’ll take a look at 26 major anomalies that plague the official story of what the government said happened on 9/11. We’ll examine a lot of “evidence” that’s been ignored by the White House, the 9/11 Commission and the mainstream media. 26 MAJOR ANOMALIES [same as # XX below] 3. Next, I’ll be showing you 10 similar events that have changed history and may have acted as “precedents” for 9/11. 10 WAR PRETEXT INCIDENTS [same as # XX below] 4. Then, we’ll discuss “Why Understanding 9/11 is Crucial to Our Future” Let’s start by examining the narrative they call “the Official Story” of 9/11. Here’s a concise summary: [26 MAJOR ANOMALIES OF 9/11] “19 Muslim/Arab fanatics who were funded and trained by al Qaeda and directed by Osama Bin Laden, from a cave in Afghanistan, hijacked four commercial airliners with knives and box cutters on September 11, 2001. “They took the North American Air Defense Command (NORAD) completely by surprise, flying two of them into the Twin Towers. “As a result, WTC Towers 1 & 2 collapsed (within two hours of being hit) in a “pancake” fashion due to structural failure caused by the crashing planes and ensuing fires. “The third plane hit the Pentagon and disappeared ... into the building. “As did the fourth plane that crashed near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, which disappeared into a field. 2 “Later that day Building 7 collapsed due to structural failure caused by falling debris and fires. “The 9/11 Commission found that there were no prior warnings for this ‘act of terrorism.’ “And that multiple US government intelligence failures were to blame.” Let’s dissect the official story and see if it stands up to some of the other evidence that has been discovered since 9/11. “19 Muslim/Arab fanatics 1. Who were these guys? Devout Muslims intent on meeting their maker and being rewarded for their good deeds with 72 virgins in Heaven? Well certainly not all of them. Because several of them, including the ringleader Mohamed Atta, reportedly frequented strip clubs and paid for lap dances in the days and weeks leading up to 9/11– hardly the behavior of devout Muslims. If you’ll recall, the Bush administration said, at first, they had no idea who the attackers were. They’d been taken completely by surprise. But within 24 hours they had pinpointed all 19 suspects plus Osama bin Laden and broadcasted their pictures far and wide, for everyone to see. That was pretty quick, when you think they had no idea who the culprits were in the first place. Or did they? It turns out these guys were being tracked by the FBI, the CIA and military intelligence. If you Google “Able Danger” you’ll find out all about that. Whistleblower Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer and others in the Pentagon’s “Able Danger” team informed a Congressional committee about that. But how many of us heard about it? Of the 19, 15 of them were known troublemakers who were deliberately allowed to enter the USA by the CIA who were working at a US consulate in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. How can we tell? Michael J. Springmann blew the whistle on the “Visas for Terrorists Program” that let them in. 3 After 9/11, he phoned the FBI over and over again, but to no avail. Mr. Springmann's statements contradict the 9/11 Commission's statement that the alleged hijackers “received little or no assistance from the United States.” (page 56 of the report). At least five of them may have trained at US military bases, as reported in Newsweek. The names of the so-called hijackers never appeared on any passenger manifests that were released by the airline companies. And according to the British press, half a dozen of the alleged 9/11 “suicide hijackers” were still alive, that is if you believe the BBC and The Guardian. How is that possible? And if they are still alive, why haven’t US officials removed their names from the list of 9/11 suspects? They were funded and trained by al Qaeda 2. If you do some digging around you find out that one of the 9/11 Money Men was Lt. General Mahmoud Ahmad (who turns out was Pakistan’s Director-General of Intelligence). He orchestrated the transfer of $100,000 to ringleader Mohamed Atta just prior to September 11. What’s interesting about that is, at the time of 9/11, Pakistan’s military intelligence was pretty tight with the CIA. That’s why he was visiting members of the Bush administration from September 4th to 13th, 2001 in Washington. If you don’t think so, just ask Senator Bob Graham, or Representative Porter Goss, chairmen of the Senate and House Intelligence committees, who were his hosts at a breakfast meeting on Capitol Hill on the morning of the attacks. Now here’s an interesting fact. What do you think the 9/11 Commission reported about that?“To date, the US government has not been able to determine the origin of the money used for the 9/11 attacks. Ultimately the question is of little practical significance.” Little practical significance?! 4 They were directed by Osama Bin Laden, from a cave in Afghanistan, 3. On the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list, you’ll see that even though Osama is listed as one of the Top Ten Most Wanted Fugitives (with ties to the US embassy bombings in Africa back in 1998) there’s no mention of 9/11. Why? Because according to FBI spokesman, Rex Tomb, “the FBI has no hard evidence connecting Osama Bin Laden to 9/11.” And yet the White House blames him for orchestrating the attacks. Don’t they believe the FBI? GOOD GRAPHIC NEEDED 4. Osama was reportedly receiving kidney dialysis at the American Hospital in Dubia in July 2001. According to the Times of India, the CIA station chief visited him in hospital. CARTOON GRAPHIC NEEDED One day before 9/11 (that is on September 10, 2001) guess where Osama was? In a Pakistani army hospital in Rawalpindi, at least if you can believe Dan Rather of CBS news. hijacked four commercial airliners with knives and box cutters. 5. What evidence has the US government actually provided to prove that 19 Arabs hijacked the 4 commercial passenger planes on 9/11? a. A passport found at Ground Zero; how could a paper passport have survived that inferno? b. Video clips at various airport terminals; why didn’t their names appear on the manifests? c. Atta’s will (and other incriminating evidence) found in Atta’s unloaded baggage; Why would you pack your will on a trip to martyrdom? d. A passport and red bandana found at Shanksville’s United 93 crash site; How could those items survive the crash when everything else disappeared into the hole? 5 e. A series of bin Laden ‘confession tapes’ and ‘warnings of future attacks’ after 9/11. Why does Osama appear to have a broader nose, and look so different now? CONFESSION TAPE GRAPHIC NEEDED f. Around 40 phone calls from the airliners, including the famous one from Barbara Olson; All but two of those calls were dismissed as real at the Zacharias Moussaoui trial in 2006 Professor Kee Dewdney, who is one of the hosts here tonight, did some groundbreaking work on that topic, proving that cellphone calls over 8,000 feet back in 2001 were next to impossible. The phone calls to relatives were all probably faked using voice morphing technology.) 6. None of the four airliners transmitted the simple hijack code pilots use when their plane is being hijacked.
