Publishers Foreword

All of this was brought upon us in a single day and night fell on a different world, a world where freedom itself is under attack. They hate our freedoms our freedom of religion, our freedom of speech, our freedom to vote and assemble and disagree with each other. Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists.

George W. Bush, September 20, 2001

Address to a Joint Session of Congress

I have already said that I am not involved in the 11 September attacks in the United States. As a Muslim, I try my best to avoid telling a lie. I had no knowledge of these attacks, nor do I consider the killing of innocent women, children and other humans as an appreciable act. Islam strictly forbids causing harm to innocent women, children and other people. Such a practice is forbidden even in the course of a battle.

(a)(1) The Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation or a designee of the Director (whose rank shall be no lower than Assistant Special Agent in Charge) may make an application for an order requiring the production of any tangible things (including books, records, papers, documents, and other items) for an investigation to protect against international terrorism or clandestine intelligence activities, provided that such investigation of a United States person is not conducted solely upon the basis of activities protected by the first amendment to the Constitution.

(d) No person shall disclose to any other person (other than those persons

necessary to produce the tangible things under this section) that the Federal

Bureau of Investigation has sought or obtained tangible things under this section.

This president is trying to bring to himself all the power to become an emperor to create Empire America. If you go along like sheep, that is what will happen.

Seattle Times

On 9 11, four planes for two hours were able to drive around, fly around even one hour in the direction going toward the west and then turn around and comeback. The military air force was not able to interdict them. Its [un] imaginable!

Andreas Von Buelow, February 8, 2004

Former assistant German defense minister, and member of the German Bundestag

Alex Jones Radio Show

For those who might question the reasoning and importance for re- examining the [9/11] Commissions report, the events that led up to and the day of September 11th, one only has to recall the enormous ramifications that the attacks of September 11th have had on our country. [Only] an honest re-evaluation of how the 9/11 attacks could have happened will allow us to reverse the adverse consequences of overreaching laws and the existing loopholes in our security systems in order to allow us to be safer in the future.

Congressional Briefing

What we do know is that government officials decided not to inform a lawfully constituted body, created by Congress and the president, to investigate one the greatest tragedies to confront this country. We call that obstruction.

Chair &Vice-Chair of The 9-11 Commission

New York Times

The evidence that Al-Qaeda is actually an arm of the U.S. government is voluminous. This whole thing was not engineered from a cave in Afghanistan

Daniel Hamburg, Feb 22, 2008 former U.S. Congressman Alex Jones Radio Show

So who cares that the 9/11 Commission chose to believe that Dick Cheney did not enter the White House bunker until shortly before 10:00, twenty minutes after the strike on the Pentagon? Surely the Vice President would not fib, so the Commission threw out the testimony of several eyewitnesses, including Norman Mineta, the Transportation Secretary. Mineta must have been making it all up when he testified that he joined Cheney in the bunker at about 9:20 and heard Cheney reaffirm an apparent stand-down order just before the Pentagon was struck.

Ray McGovern, March 2008 former CIA Analyst and Presidential Briefer Amazon.com Book Review

two of the terrorists who crashed Flight 77 into the Pentagon on 9/11 [Nawaf al Hazmi and Khalid al Mihdhar] managed to escape FBI detection the previous month [August 2001] because an agent on the West Coast was denied help from the criminal-investigative side of his own agency.

Prologue

Every place that something could have gone wrong in this over a year and a half, it went wrong

W e may think we understand why 9/11 happened, and, indeed, after several official investigations, numerous books and countless press articles, many intelligence failures before 9/11 are well known. Among them are the failure to watchlist two of the hijackers, Khalid Almihdhar and Nawaf Al- hazmi; the failure to exploit intercepts of their telephone calls; the failure to follow them to the US; the failure to search the belongings of one of their apparent associates, Zacarias Moussaoui, who was arrested three weeks before 9/11; the failure to find Almihdhar just before the attacks. These were not simple failures, but ongoing failures

What is less well known is that most, or perhaps all, of these particular failures were the fault of one small coterie of intelligence officials grouped around Alec Station, the CIAs bin Laden unit. They will be known here as the Alec Station group, though they included FBI agents as well.
