"A
new book by 9/11 Commission co-chairmen Tom Kean
and Lee Hamilton outlines repeated misstatements by
the Pentagon and the Federal Aviation Administration,
including the timelines of Flights 77 and 93. The
fact that the government would...perpetuate the lie

CNN News, August 9, 2006 (part of the two-page
9/11 timeline below)
Dear friends,
On September 11, 2001, thousands
of innocent people died as a result of the secret
plans of a small group intent on spreading fear and
violence in the world. Though the 9/11 Commission
issued a full investigative report in 2004, the two
ranking members of the Commission have since revealed
major
deceptions not covered in their report. The
concise list of media statements below (links provided
for verifiability) raise many more questions about
that fateful day. Though this information may
be disturbing, we feel it is absolutely critical for
caring people of the world to consider the possibility
that 9/11 may not be what it seemed. By working together
to spread the word and bring the truth out, we can
strengthen democracy and build a brighter future for
us all.
With best wishes,

America's
top military leaders drafted plans to kill innocent
people and commit acts of terrorism in US cities to

Joint Chiefs, Operation Northwoods even proposed blowing
up a US ship and hijacking planes as a false pretext
for war. [ABC
