"And 9/11 has not brought about any kind of free-market reforms, quite the opposite in fact" Gret

1. On Sept. 10th 2001, prior to announcing the missing trillions of dollars, Donald Rumsfeld held an historic meeting at the Pentagon, whenin he set forth the policy that he was waging war on the "buerocracy" and "waste" at the Pentagon, then he set out to privatize as much as he could (Blackwater, CACI, Halliburton, KBR... even the Pentagon paychecks were transfered over to a private company. Intel was privatized, survallance, armed protection of high ranking public sector employees as well as military personel. Fact is, since 9/11, the largest percentage of privatized functions of our military ever.

All since 9/11 and BY Donald Rumsfeld (and continued under Gates)... someone I KNOW helped plan the events and carry them out.

2. Iraq AND Afghanistan BOTH had state owned and controlled central banking systems prior to our invasions.

The SECOND order that the head of the Coalition Provisional Authority gave, was to privatize the central banking system of Iraq.

They opened the borders to unrestricted free-trade...

They privatized the oil industry and reserves as we all know...

They also sold off over 200 national industries that the Iraqis had created in order to survive during the strict sanctions...

Labor unions have been broken up or otherwise threatened...

"free trade zones" have been set up throughout Iraq.

3. Now, if you believe, like I do, that dates and so forth are important to these people, the ones who planned and carried out the attacks on Sept. 11th... then you can't ignore the 2nd most important event that took place on Sept. 11th...

Sept. 11th, 1973, Chile, a popularly elected president was overthrown in a coup, planned and orchistrated by Kissinger and Nixon with the help of the CIA.

The significance here is that this date reflects what is commonly understood as the very beginning of the Milton Friedman free-market "experiments" in Latin America.

Many more were to follow, but Chile was the first.

4. The same people that brought us 9/11 also were responcible for the crash of our economy. I think that is pretty safe to say.

The economic crash has allowed the same kinds of "reforms" to take place here and now. Obviously the trade unions are coming under fire (UAW for example), average wages are stagnant or dropping, unemployment is up...ect. ect.

Point is, look at the nations that we attacked. The big money isn't JUST in the oil or the defense department contracts, but really the BIG money is in the central bank system for it holds the key to ALL the rest of the money...

and now those banks are privately owned, and part of the "global central banking network". Subsequently, Iran and Venezuela are BOTH not part of that system... and just guess where we are going next.

As far as your comment about the "circular logic" I am using... you would be correct, but you forgot one KEY ELEMENT;

the investigations into the "demolition" were to be conducted by a co-conspirator... so they KNEW PRIOR TO THE EVENT that the tests for residual trace elements of explosive WOULD NEVER BE CONDUCTED by any of the investigating agencies...

... and they weren't.

In fact, the president and owner of CDI was actually brought in as a "consultant" in the NIST Building 7 Reoprt... he was actually able to "control" even THAT investigation.

The other problem with your "thermite weakening the steel" theory is that thermite itself is very slow when it comes to that. Yes, it can cause great damage, but I am sure you have seen the various experiments conducted that show massive ammounts of thermite burning and having a rather undramatic effect on the steel target.

Plus, as you must know, thermite doesn't work well on a vertical structure. It is a gravity driven reaction.

For these and many other reasons, I find it highly improbable that thermite was used in the demolition...

... unless of course you agree with Dr. Steven Jones who now says (like he also said in the Harrit paper) that it is probable that the "nanothermite" they found was from "electric matches" that ignited the conventional explosives.

And for what it is worth, the world was well aligned with the interests of Zionism long before Zionism existed. That is if you can see a similarity between Zionism and our own "maifest destiny", the open air prison of Gaza and the reservations in the Dakota Hills. Zionism and aparthied.

and of course, if I was a better student of history, I am sure there are many other examples to chose from.

Yes, Zionism is horrible and I write a great deal on my site about the plight of the Palestinian people. And it does factor into the events of 9/11, or should I say, some self proclaimed Zionists factor in.

But it is NOT the end-all-be-all too the story of 9/11. There is something bigger at stake here. Much bigger.
