Did NORAD Send The "Suicide" Jets?

Since September 11, the basic facts/factoids concerning 9-11 (the departure times of the aircraft, etc.) have varied depending on the news organization consulted.  In this article, I have used as my default the facts/factoids given in Time magazine's September 11 edition unless otherwise indicated.

February 23, 2002 — Those of us who have been watching know Operation 911 was an inside job, pulled off by remote controlled aircraft.  We also know that the military organization responsible for protecting American skies — the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) — did not show up on September 11, leaving the skies wide open for the remote controlled jets to work their deadly havoc. 

Some will tell you the world is full of coincidences.  Here is one for the books.  The very people who left the American skies open for the 9-11 attack — NORAD — are among the world's leading experts on remote controlled aircraft. 

NORAD personnel had the means to send those planes to attack.  And NORAD created the opportunity for those planes to attack.  This elevates NORAD to Suspect Number One. 

Yes, NORAD trigger men, traitors, may have guided the "suicide jets" on September 11.  The  dog we bought to guard the hen house may well have taken the day off and killed the chickens. 

NORAD is the military organization formed by treaty between the U.S. and Canada to monitor and defend North American skies against enemy aircraft, missiles, and space vehicles.  In the US, NORAD has an agreement with the Federal Aviation Administration to cooperate in emergency civil aviation situations when aircraft go off course or are hijacked.

You may want to pay particular attention to Chapter 7, which deals with the escort of hijacked aircraft.  In addition, read the discussion of military interception of civilian aircraft in "Mr. Cheney's Cover Story," by Bykov & Israel.  Look at the discussion of how NORAD jets force troublesome aircraft to land. 
http://emperors-clothes.com/indict/indict-2.htm

Since 1959, NORAD personnel have been installing remote control units in a variety of aircraft and remotely controlling those aircraft in sophisticated aeronautical maneuvers, including combat practice.   See "Thwarting skyjackings from the ground," written by Alan Staats for Facsnet, and posted on October 2, 2001.   (Facsnet is an education service provided for its reporters by Associated Press.)

http://www.Public-Action.com/911/facsnet/aviation.php3
(Look at paragraph entitled "History on remote control.")

"Controlling the aircraft from the ground is nothing new.  The military has been flying obsolete high performance fighter aircraft as target drones since the 1950s.  In fact, NORAD (the North American Air Defense Command) had at its disposal a number of U.S. Air Force General Dynamics F-106 Delta Dart fighter aircraft configured to be remotely flown into combat as early as 1959 under the auspices of a program known as SAGE.  These aircraft could be started, taxied, taken off, flown into combat, fight, and return to a landing entirely by remote control, with the only human intervention needed being to fuel and re-arm them."

Re-read that final sentence in the above quote: 

"These [NORAD] aircraft could be started, taxied, taken off, flown into combat, fight, and return to a landing entirely by remote control … "

Given over 40 years of institutional experience, flying remotely controlled "suicide" jets into the World Trade Center towers would have been a piece of cake for NORAD.  This information puts NORAD's failure to protect our skies on September 11, 2001 in a new light. 

Transponders are receiver/transmitter devices installed on planes for the purpose of tracking their location.  Sometimes called "secondary radar," transponders tell Air Traffic Control the latitude, longitude, altitude, and speed of the aircraft as well as the plane's identification, airline and flight number. Compare transponders with conventional, or "primary radar," which detects distant objects and determines their position, velocity, and other characteristics by analysis of very high frequency radio waves reflected from the surface of the aircraft.  Conventional radar shows the latitude and longitude of the aircraft, but, unlike transponders, will not reveal the airline, flight number, nor altitude of the aircraft. 

For years air traffic controllers have relied on conventional radar, and it still works.  One experienced pilot I interviewed told me that on several occasions he was flying aircraft when the transponder failed.  Air Traffic Control simply located his position with conventional radar, no problem. 

For more information on transponders, see "Transponder Basics," written by Tom Rogers, a pilot and a Ph.D. physicist who owns an avionics equipment company.  The article on the website is undated; however, the author has confirmed (via e-mail to me dated February 10, 2002) that the information contained in the article is current. I quote from that article: 

"Today, virtually all ATC radar installations are equipped with both primary and secondary radar capability."

Many Americans I have spoken to believe that NORAD failed to do its job on September 11 because the "suicide pilots" turned off the transponders in each of the four planes.  NORAD was thus unable to find the location of the aircraft and consequently could not intercept them, they say. 

Think about it.  NORAD's job is to protect us from enemy bombers and missiles sent over our skies by foreign powers.  Would those foreign powers be considerate enough to put transponders on their bombers and missiles so NORAD could locate them and shoot them down?  Of course not.  NORAD is expected to find unidentified flying objects without transponders.

Confirm this by visiting the Canadian Defense website again, "Canada-United States Defense Regulations." 

http://www.dnd.ca/menu/canada-us/bg00.010_e.htm

http://www.Public-Action.com/911/norad

"NORAD uses a network of ground-based radars, sensors and fighter jets to detect, intercept and, if necessary, engage any threats to the continent."

Transponders help to filter out all identifiable aircraft for NORAD and allow them to focus on those craft that are unidentified.  An aircraft flying without a transponder gets special attention.   NORAD must have known when each of the transponders in the four "suicide" jets was turned off, and must have known immediately.  At all times, NORAD must have known the location of each of the four planes.  (See expanded discussion of NORAD's surveillance capabilities in Part II, in section "NORAD vs. FAA — Who Sees What?"  http://www.Public-Action.com/911/noradsend2.html  .)

Before we go any further, let us consider the implications of the so-called hijackers/suicide pilots turning off the transponders.  If the "hijackers" knew enough about transponders to shut them off, they surely must have known the aircraft could be tracked and located by conventional radar.  Why, then, did the "hijackers" turn off the transponders?  There's a question to ponder.

Put in other words, why did the suicide pilots want to keep the name of the airline, the flight number, the altitude, and the speed of the aircraft a secret, even though the latitude and longitude of the aircraft could not be kept secret?  Turning off the transponders would not have helped the mission if NORAD was doing its job.  The suicide pilots would have known NORAD would not be fooled by the trick.

Those who want to pursue the War on Islam of course want to sustain the lie that Muslim suicide pilots were responsible for 9-11.  They want to keep the real trigger men — the men working under the NORAD cover — hidden from public view. 

So public attention must be deflected from NORAD's culpability and focused on the FAA and the failureo of "the system." Top FAA executives and the FAA/NORAD liaison people were of course involved and could give us information.  Their failure to speak is either a sign that they have been ordered to shut their mouths for the sake of "national security" or a testament to some other complicity. 

While reading the following, notice the varied nature of the diversionary "what did the FAA know and when did they know it and when did they tell NORAD what they knew" controversy.  You will notice that no one mentions NORAD's access to radar, nor a description of what NORAD could see.  (Further discussion of this topic in Part II.)   Instead there is constant fudging about radar data in general and a pretense that there is no cold, objective evidence that can be examined to tell us what really happened that day.

The first plane to hit the WTC, American Flight 11, left Boston's Logan Airport at 7:59 a.m. bound for Los Angeles.  In its story "The nation reels," published on September 12, 2001,  The Christian Science Monitor says of Flight 11: 

"Shortly afterward, as aircraft (sic) was making its turn toward New York City, the plane's transponder was turned off. With its transponder off, its altitude became a matter of guesswork for the controllers, although the plane was still visible on radar …"

http://www.Public-Action.com/911/csmonitor

Nice that the civilian conventional radar system was mentioned, but note that there is no mention of the mission and capabilities of NORAD.  As the Canadian government tells us, "… NORAD uses a network of ground-based radars, sensors and fighter jets to detect, intercept and, if necessary, engage any threats to the continent."

United Flight 175 left Boston's Logan Airport at 7:58 a.m., headed for Los Angeles.  At 9:06 a.m., it was the second plane to hit the WTC.  United Airlines released a press statement that day.  Referring the Flight 175, the press statement contains this sentence:

"Last radar contact with the aircraft was between Newark, NJ, and Philadelphia, PA." 

Yet we know Flight 175 continued on to New York and hit the south tower of the WTC.  United could have said that the transponder was turned off, and included the information that the plane was still being tracked by conventional radar.  Instead, United gave the impression that the craft was not visible on radar "between Newark, NJ and Philadelphia, PA," and was never seen on radar again.  How is that possible? And of course no mention of NORAD.

Let's turn now to the Washington Post, one of the nation's loudest cheerleaders for the War on Islam.  See "Pentagon Crash Highlights a Radar Gap," (November 3, 2001), covering Flight 77.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A32597-2001Nov2.html

American Airlines Flight 77 left Dulles Airport near Washington, D.C. at 8:10 a.m. and hit the Pentagon at 9:40. a.m.   The Post states it disappeared from radar screens at 8:50 a.m., when the "hijackers" turned off the transponder.  But now the Post turns attention to the FAA's ability to track the plane with conventional radar. 

"The answers to the mystery of the aircraft's disappearance begin with the fact that hijacking took place in an area served by only one type of radar, FAA officials confirmed …" 

The article goes on to say that "the radar installation near Parkersburg, W.Va., was built with only secondary radar — called 'beacon-only' radar.  That left the controllers monitoring Flight 77 at the Indianapolis center blind when the hijackers apparently switched off the aircraft's transponder."

Later we shall see that when Gen. Ralph Eberhart, commander of NORAD, testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee on October 25, other facts/factoids were asserted concerning Flight 77's path.  Sen. Levin stated that Flight 77 was seen on radar, over West Virginia, heading east, at 8:55 a.m.  Gen. Eberhart did not dispute those facts/factoids.  See "Sen. Levin Told To Ask The FAA." But let's use this facts/factoids for the moment in making this analysis:

Flight 77's transponder was turned off at 8:56 a.m., eleven minutes after Flight 11 had hit the first tower of the WTC.  Before Flight 11 crashed, its transponder had been turned off.  The non-working transponder on Flight 77 should have been a warning of another impending disaster.  When Flight 77's transponder was turned off, its location was as clear as a bell.  Using mathematical calculations, it should have been easy for the FAA to estimate a range for its probable location.  And remember, NORAD would have this information in real time.  Flight 77 should have been easy to intercept.  Instead, Flight 77 was allowed to meander around the country for 45 minutes, unsupervised. 

As the Canadian government reminds us, "NORAD uses a network of ground-based radars, sensors and fighter jets to detect, intercept and, if necessary, engage any threats to the continent." Well, Canada, that's the general idea …  

The Washington Post of course neglects to mention that NORAD did not need transponders to track that plane; but the Washington Post was not yet through with muddying the waters and diverting attention from NORAD. 

"In the case of American Flight 77, it is unclear whether additional warning time would have changed anything.  Military jets were scrambled after controllers became aware of the hijacked aircraft, but the fighters could not get to the Washington area in time," says the Post. 

That's a dumb lie, even for the Washington Post.  Andrews Air Force Base, home of Air Force One, is just 10 miles from Washington D.C.  How long would it take for Andrews jets, capable of flying at twice the speed of sound, to get over Washington D.C./Pentagon airspace?

Now let's cut over to the Miami Herald's more believable September 14 story, "Who watched as flight plan was aborted?" 

http://www.fpp.co.uk/online/01/11/WTC_AA77.html
or
http://www.Public-Action.com/911/norad-miamiherald.html

"FORTY-five minutes. That's how long American Airlines Flight 77 meandered through the air headed for the White House, its flight plan abandoned, its radar beacon silent.  Originally bound for Los Angeles from Washington, it got as far as the Ohio border before terrorists disabled the aircraft's transponder, a piece of equipment that sends a signal back to control centers.

"It was about 9 a.m.

"At that moment, the north tower of the World Trade Center was already in flames. 

"Minutes later, a second airliner would crash into the south tower, providing unmistakable evidence that the United States was under terrorist attack.

"Meanwhile Flight 77 was turning around, streaking back east over Virginia toward the White House and finally slamming into the Pentagon at 9:45 a.m.

"Who was watching in those 45 minutes?  …   Even with the transponder silent, the plane should have been visible on radar, both to controllers who handle cross-continent air traffic and to a Federal Aviation Administration command center outside of Washington, according to air traffic controllers.

"The FAA, which handles air traffic control, would not discuss the track of Flight 77 or what happened in air-control centers while it was in flight. Neither would American Airlines."

Why won't the FAA and American discuss Flight 77's route?  The damage has already been done, and the pretext to make war on Israel's enemies has already been provided.   But while the Miami Herald quite properly notes the suspicious behavior of the FAA and American Airlines, it does not breathe a word about the mission and capabilities of NORAD. 

White House spokesmen Ari Fleischer said that according to radar data he had seen, Flight 77 was headed for the White House.  CBS News publicly disagreed with him, saying that's not what the recorded flight path showed.  See "Primary Target," September 21, 2001,

http://www.cbsnews.com/now/story/0,1597,310721-412.00.shtml
or
http://www.public-action.com/911/cbsflight77

What was the source of Ari Fleischer's radar data?  What was the source of CBS's radar data?  We are not told.  All this information comes from anonymous sources. 

Friends, some stuff happened on September 11.  And some stuff didn't.  Radar provides objective evidence of the truth.  Yes, someone's playing games with Ari Fleischer's radar data.   Someone's playing games with the FAA radar data.  But no one is talking about NORAD's radar data.

O.K.  We have established that even when its transponder was turned off, Flight 77's journey would have been tracked by NORAD's conventional radars and FAA conventional radar systems (Miami Herald, above).  Flight 77's flight path should be no great mystery.  Nor should there be any mystery about the flight paths of the other jets. Shortly after 9-11, Time, Newsweek, and USA today published diagrams of the flight paths of the run away jets.   You can see those diagrams at:

http://www.Public-Action.com/911/4flights.html

In the copy below those diagrams, you will find a discussion of the many contradictions among the three.   You will also notice that none of these diagrams show Flight 175 disappearing from the radar screens somewhere between Newark and Philadelphia, as United Airlines claims. 

http://www.public-action.com/911/ual175radar/

But for the moment, let's look at what each says about Flight 77:

• USA Today produced an animated diagram on its webpage which we cached on October 23, 2001.  According to USA Today, on its flight westward, Flight 77 made an unscheduled detour over West Virginia (see the hump.)  This detour does not appear on the Time or Newsweek versions.  USA Today's Flight 77 does not cross the border into Ohio, but turns around in West Virginia for its journey back east.  Note how far south USA Today's Flight 77 flew, compared to the route taken by Time and Newsweek's Flight 77. 
• Time Magazine, in its special September 11 edition (no page numbers) shows that Flight 77 entered Ohio.  Note the broken line representing Flight 77's return trip east, with the words "Return flight path uncertain," under the broken lines.  The same drawing appeared in Time on September 24, 2001 (pg. 32).
• Newsweek published its version of Flight 77's flight path on September 24,  pg. 31. You will see that Newsweek's rendition of Flight 77's return flight is different than Time's.   A point of similarity: the return path is shown by a broken line, and labelled "estimated path." 

Yes.  Someone's playing games with radar. 

On October 25, 1999, at 9:33 a.m. air traffic controllers in Florida lost touch with a Learjet carrying golfer Payne Stewart and several companions after it left Orlando headed for Dallas, Texas.   Nineteen minutes after Air Traffic Control realized something was wrong, one or more US Air Force fighter jets were already on top of the situation, in the air, close to the Learjet.  Moreover, throughout the course of its flight, Payne Stewart's jet was given escort from National Guard aircraft coordinated across state lines.  See "Golfer Payne Stewart Dies," October 25, 1999, at:

http://abcnews.go.com/sections/us/DailyNews/plane102599.html
or read the National Transportation Safety Board report on Payne Stewart's flight:

http://www.ntsb.gov/Publictn/2000/AAB0001.htm
or
http://www.Public-Action.com/911/stewart
(There are minor discrepancies between the ABC and NTSB reports.)

That was the response when a small private jet lost radio contact with air traffic control over a relatively sparsely populated area in Florida.  Compare that to what was done when they lost communication with four commercial passenger jets flying over the populous northeast on September 11,  2001. 
 

Note of February 26, 2002:  Since this was written, a reader has pointed out the NTSB report used Eastern Daylight Time in the beginning of its account and then switched to Central Daylight Time. Thus the NTSB report  showed that 1 hour and 19 minutes elapsed between realization that the Stewart flight was in trouble and deployment of the military jets.  Compare this to a contemporaneous report that appeared in the Washington Post on October 26, 1999, "Golfer Payne Stewart Dies in Jet Crash," which was sent along to me by the same alert reader.  http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/national/daily/oct99/crash26.htm

The Washington Post reporters apparently got their information from the FAA directly, as the story broke: The Post  indicates that 24 minutes elapsed between the time the air traffic controller first noticed something was wrong (9:44 a.m.) to the dispatching of the jets at 10:08. a.m. 

There are other anomalies in the NTSB report, the examination of which are beyond to scope of this article.

My purpose in citing the Payne Stewart incident was to show that the presence of NORAD on the North American continent should have shaped the events of 9-11 very differently and should have shaped the plans of the hijackers very differently.  It was reasonable to expect a NORAD response within approximately 20 minutes of notification.  Certainly NORAD considered that reasonable.  On September 18, NORAD issued a press release stating that it took only six minutes to get planes in the air after notification on Flight 11, nine minutes to get planes in the air after notification on Flight 175, and six minutes to get planes in the air after notification on Flight 77. http://www.spacecom.af.mil/norad/presrelNORADTimelines.htm
http://www.Public-Action.com/911/noradresponse

In the following text, whenever the Payne Stewart incident is cited, please read with this February 26 note in mind. 

Again, the first plane to hit the WTC was American Airlines Flight 11.  It left Logan Airport in Boston at 7:59 a.m.  According to "A Plane Left Boston and Skimmed Over River and Mountain in a Deadly Detour," published by The New York Times on September 13, 2001, 

"The plane held on course, almost due west, for only 16 minutes.

"Just past Worcester, Mass., instead of taking a southerly turn, the Boeing 767 swung to the north at 8:15.  It had been taken over . . .

"Five minutes later, at 8:20, Flight 11 failed to follow an instruction to climb to its cruising altitude of 31,00 feet.  It was this point that air controllers suspected something was wrong.  And just about then the plane's transponder, a piece of equipment that broadcast its location, went out."

When Flight 11 veered sharply off course at 8:15 a.m., Air Traffic Control should have known immediately something was wrong.  But apparently they did not try to get in touch with Flight 11, and allowed five minutes to go by before instructing it to climb to 31,000 feet.  Given that the plane was off course already, why didn't ATC tell it to get back on course?  And given that it was off course, why tell the pilots to climb?  We are not told.  But let's put these considerations aside. Air Traffic Control should have known something was severely amiss at 8:15 a.m., or at the latest, 8:20. a.m.

Yet Flight 11 and three more passenger jets were sequentially permitted to go missing and run amok for at least one hour and 20 minutes (80 minutes — the Pentagon was hit at 9:40 a.m.) without NORAD getting its jets in position to intercept the runaway craft.  Compare NORAD's performance on September 11, 2001 with its performance on October 25, 1999, in the Payne Stewart case.

Rubbish, Mr. Bedlington.  Had there been real hijackers, they would have earned a "D" for this effort.  Careful planners would have researched the expected reaction time of NORAD.  The Payne Stewart example was already well-known, and the NTSB report was publicly available.  Real hijackers would expect NORAD would be onto them in 19 minutes following detection of a problem.  (Payne Stewart, above.)   Surely this is Hijackology 101.

Look at the three diagrams again:
http://www.Public-Action.com/911/4flights.html

Real hijackers with "an incredible degree of organization or skill" would not have taken jets from Boston to hit New York, and given the NORAD 30 minutes and 50 minutes, respectively, to intercept them.  Real hijackers would not have taken a jet from Dulles and meandered all the way to Ohio and back again before hitting the Pentagon. 

Real hijackers with even a modicum of organization or skill would have hijacked planes from Kennedy or LaGuardia to hit the WTC towers shortly after take-off and struck like lightning while the planes were close to their targets, before anyone had a chance to react.  Real hijackers would have hijacked a plane from National, Baltimore-Washington, or Dulles airports and hit the Pentagon shortly after take-off and struck like lightning while the plane was close to its target and before anyone had a chance to react. 

Remember, real hijackers would have believed they had, at the very most, a 19-minute window of opportunity before NORAD interception, as proven by the Payne Stewart case.  They would not have believe they had an 80-minute window of opportunity, as NORAD gave them on September 11 (Flight 11 went amiss at 8:15-8:20 a.m, Pentagon hit 80 minutes later at 9:40 a.m.).

No.  "Real" hijackers did not pull off this caper.  Believing that NORAD tried to protect us but was bested by superior hijacker strategy is akin to taking professional wrestling seriously.  DC Dave (http://thebird.org/host/dcdave ) put it succinctly when he wrote "The Show Goes On,"

The Rock's opponent cooperates
When he's thrown down on the mat.
Now think of September 11:
Our defense was just like that.

Because we have been discussing the Facsnet article on remote control, this is perhaps the place to mention Joe Vialls' article "Operation Home Run," on remote control of commercial passenger jets and 9-11.  "Operation Home Run" has been widely circulated on the Internet.

http://www.geocities.com/mknemesis/homerun.html

In a nutshell, Mr. Vialls says that technology that allows controllers on the ground to assume remote control of aircraft had been secretly installed in US commercial passenger jets.  Mr. Vialls says that unauthorized persons assumed control of the remote control systems on September 11 and caused the crashes. 

Now let's look at the October 2 Facsnet article "Thwarting skyjackings from the ground" once again.  Notice the subtitle: "Automated airplane landing systems are advanced enough to bring a hijacked airplane 'home.'"

http://www.facsnet.org/issues/specials/terrorism/aviation.php3
or
http://www.Public-Action.com/911/facsnet/aviation.php3

The first paragraphs read:

"Technology now exists that could allow a ground crew to override and direct the flight path of a hijacked plane.

"Following the Sept. 11 attacks on the Pentagon and World Trade Center, President George W. Bush called for the creation of a system that would allow Air Traffic Controllers on the ground the ability to assume remote control of the aircraft and direct it to a safe landing at a nearby airport.

"The military has employed this capability since the 1950s.  Modifying and implementing the technology for use on passenger carrying aircraft in the United States would involve significant capital outlay, research and testing …"

The author thus clearly states that the technology "that would allow Air Traffic Controllers on the ground the ability to assume remote control of the aircraft" has not yet been installed into US passenger jets.  The author, Alan Staats, warns of the capital outlay involved.  Mr. Staats consulted the following experts when researching his article:

Mr. Vialls does not cite any documentary evidence, nor does he cite any authorities upon whom he relied when writing his article.  I recently wrote to Mr. Vialls asking him for the source for his information, and asking if the technology had ever been successfully used (Footnote 1).  Mr. Vialls answered me that he could not cite documentation to substantiate any of his claims. Everything was top secret, said Mr. Vialls (Footnote 2). 

I dont' know about you, but this stretches my credulity to breaking point.  Note the Vialls article diverts our attention to hijackers outside the government and military, away from NORAD. I suspect Mr. Vialls has fabricated his "top secret" information.  I believe there is clear and convincing evidence that the bad boys operated within the NORAD network, and that's where our attention should be. 

In consideration of all the above, I have come to the conclusion that "Operation Home Run" is bogus, a rear-guard attempt to help the NORAD coverup. 

By now we are familiar with the shocking story of the treason of President Johnson and Secretary of Defense McNamara when they allowed Israel to torpedo the USS Liberty, and ordered American fighter pilots, who were aloft and coming to Liberty's aid, back to their aircraft carrier.  http://www.USSLiberty.org

When it comes to treason in high places on behalf of Israel, we in the US have seen it already.  And every administration since the time of the Liberty attack has cooperated in the treason by failing to investigate and punish the traitors.  Such is the bald and ugly State of the Union.

On September 10, 2001, just one day before 9-11, The Washington Times ran a front-page story "US troops would enforce peace under Army study." The Times quoted officers in the Army's School of Advanced Military Studies (SAMS). Of the Mossad, Israel's intelligence/dirty trick service, the SAMS officers said: "Wildcard.  Ruthless and cunning.  Has capability to target US forces and make it look like a Palestinian/Arab act."   Repeat: Israel's Mossad is: 

"Ruthless and cunning.  Has capability to target US forces and make it look like a Palestinian/Arab act." http://www.public-action.com/911/sams.html

"Let's you and him fight," has been a tactic used through the ages by intelligence agents.  If you can goad someone else to destroy your enemy, why not?  Thus it is with 9-11.  American Zionists — both of the "Christian" and "Jewish" varieties — have seized upon 9-11 and used it as a pretext to sweep the world clean of Islam, the burr under Israel's saddle.  And NORAD was used to set it up. 

In this light, it is worthwhile to note that Israel also has expertise in building unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs):

There is now a plethora of Congressional investigations into 9-11.  None of them will honestly examine what happened that day.  Instead, Congress will focus its attention on the events BEFORE September 11 — our alleged  intelligence failure to predict the "suicide pilots."  Congress will decide our intelligence agencies need more money and more police state powers.  All opponents to the Empire of Zion must be liquidated.  Congress will do everything in its power to make that happen. In the same fashion, the Zionist flagship newspaper, The Washington Post, recently concluded a series of articles about "America's Chaotic Road To War."  The focus was events AFTER September 11.  Neither the Post nor any other newspaper will ever tell the reading public of NORAD's treachery.

Joe—I've been re-reading your HomeRun article.  Interesting stuff!

Can you tell me how you found out that the remote control equipment had been installed into US commercial passenger planes, and when that equipment was installed?  I can't find any sources myself, and write to ask that you refer me to your documentation. 

Also, can you tell me when this technology was used to foil a hijacking attempt on a commercial passenger plane? 

Many thanks, Joe

German military contacts a decade ago, confirmed by airline staff. There is absolutely no public documentation of the system, which for several entirely logical security reasons, was supposed to remain top secret.

To reveal when the equipment was installed would also reveal the specific aircraft so equipped, and thus vulnerable to attack. This I have agreed not to comment on.

To our combined knowledge, although the equipment was subject to rigorous operational trials by selected test pilots, it has never been used "in anger". Situations on the few flights where it might have been useful were defused using lesser [or other] means, and shortly thereafter hijacking in the west virtually ceased altogether. 

Sorry I can't be of more assistance.

Operation 911: NO SUICIDE PILOTS
by Carol A. Valentine, October 6, 2001

There were no "suicide" pilots on those September 11 jets.  The jets were controlled by advanced robotics and remote control technology, not hijackers.

Did NORAD Send The "Suicide" Jets? Part 1:  Inside Job
by Carol A. Valentine, February 12, 2002

NORAD, charged with keeping American skies safe, didn't show up on September 11, leaving the remote controlled jets to do their work.  Coincidentally, NORAD is one of the world's experts on remote controlled aircraft.  NORAD had the means, and provided the opportunity, for making 9-11 happen. Discussion of radar anomalies. 

Did NORAD Send The "Suicide" Jets?  Part 2: The Dumb Blondes
by Carol A. Valentine, February 25, 2002

NORAD claims it sent defensive jets aloft on 9-11, but America's top generals give contradictory accounts before the Senate.  They act like dumb blondes — they can scarcely remember which plane hit which target. NORAD blames the FAA for the catastrophe, but the Senate doesn't bother calling the FAA.  More radar anomalies. 

When Seeing and Hearing Isn't Believing
by William M. Arkin, in a guest appearance, February 1, 1999

But what about the cell phone calls to relatives from passengers on the doomed planes?  The Special Operations Command gives us the answer to that question — but it's not the same answer you heard on network news. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/national/dotmil/arkin020199.htm

Flight Of The Bumble Planes
by Snake Plissken, as told to Carol A. Valentine, March 10, 2002

Snake Plissken tells us how remote controlled planes and radar trickery were used to pull off Operation 9-11. "Magic is the pretended performance of those things which cannot be done."  By George, I think he's got it! 

Pentagon RESCUE?  Parts I through IV: Open, Bloody Questions . . .
by Carol A. Valentine, June 23, 2002

On 9-11, the most important mission was to extinguish the fire and rescue the victims.  So why did they spray water on an aviation fuel fire?  Instead of lifting the debris off the victims, why did they use a wrecking ball to collapse the ruins on top of them?  Your journey begins here . . .

Pentagon RESCUE?  Part V: The Seven Minute Fire
by Carol A. Valentine, August 18, 2002

After the publication of "Pentagon RESCUE?  Part IV: Open, Bloody Questions," the Ministry of Truth publicized a little-known article claiming foam was used on 9-11, and that the "bulk" of the fire was extinguished in seven minutes!  Then what did we all watch on TV, burning for days after? 

Taliban Home Video
    by Carol A. Valentine, October 15, 2001

If the US and its pals could fake such a video — and they're easy to fake, either with morphing or stand-in impersonators — why wouldn't they?  And they did. 

9/11 Terror: Muslims Suspend Laws of Physics!
by J. McMichael, October 23, 2001

Using jet fuel to melt steel is an amazing discovery, really.  It is also amazing that until now, no one had been able to get it to work, and that proves the terrorists were not stupid people. 

Press Uses Actors in War On Islam
by Carol a. Valentine, November 11, 2001

The Washington Times has faked two photos in its coverage of the War On Islam. One actor was used twice: first cast as an enemy of America, then nine days later, as a friend of America. 

Tooth Fairies and Suicide Bombers
by Carol A. Valentine, May 9, 2002

Why would vengeful Palestinians blow themselves up?  Why not just leave the package, walk away, and strike again next week?  Funny how the Israelis identify the bombers immediately, and distribute nice color portrait shots of the culprits immediately.  Funny, the IRA didn't use suicide bombers.  Other funny things. 

Merry Christmas, and OFF WITH YOUR HEAD!
by Carol A. Valentine, May 15, 2002

What does the establishment of a world-wide Jewish theocracy have to do with the events of 9-11?  Everything.  If the Jews who rule America have their way, freedom of religion will soon be a thing of the past, and rabbinical courts will rule the world. 

911 Lawsuit Is A Booby Trap
by Carol A. Valentine, March 3, 2004

Mrs. Ellen Mariani, a 911 widow, has filed a RICO suit against George W. Bush et al. to discover the truth about 911.  But her lawyer, Philip J. Berg, has written a complaint that protects the real culprits.  It is littered with gross errors and malpractice.  Berg is a suicide bus driver taking Ellen Mariani's quest for truth on a one-way trip to oblivion.
