In this article we will learn:

   The story of 200 Israeli spies deported by the Bush Administration
   That the spies likely knew a 911 style attack was going to take place
   That they elected to undertake steps to expose the attack to US authorities in time to stop it
   That the plot they sought to expose involved an Operation Northwoods scenario
   That the means they used to attempt to spoil the plot was to get caught spying
   That the plot had clear ties to Global Hawk technology to remotely control aircraft
   That many who died on 911 may have died for what hey knew about Global Hawk

We have been Alice, lost in a wonderland created for us through illusions and dreamscapes fed us by government. The Jefferson Airplane (changed later to Jefferson Starship) gave us good advice on how to deal with such worlds in in their hit classic, White Rabbit. We have yet to awaken, but there is hope we will hear their words, and understand. There are many mysteries for Alice types in the 911 tragedy, but a number of them have a common but heretofore unseen nexus. It is not often that an investigative writer gets a chance to place so many pieces of a jigsaw puzzle into a revealing answer all at once. Usually, it is a slow process of step by step discovery. But, thanks to something called a Search Engine, the right searches can work miracles. But what are the questions to ask?

Why did the US deport 200 art students?
        And if you go chasing rabbits...
 

This at first seemed a tough question, until it is understood they were actually Israeli spies. While that in itself remains mysterious (and our media has elected to leave it at that), it is who they were spying upon and how, which raises the greatest of mysteries.  Actually, as a rule, spies don't do the spying themselves, beyond surveillance; they recruit others to do it, generally within the organization they wish to spy upon. The 'Agent spy' is sophisticated and able to use a variety of means to coerce or convince an 'operative' to do the hard part -- the actual spying. The agent simply collects and reports the intelligence gathered by the operative. So I have to ask... why would a network of 200 spies deliberately do the spying, themselves... and in a way guaranteed to get them caught? We shall see... And whom did they spy upon, and when?  If we accept the brief media glimpses and government statements at face value, they were spying upon our own US government intelligence and law enforcement agencies -- starting in early 2001 . In case you haven't already deduced it, these 'victims' are the very people most likely to figure out they were being spied upon. And guess what -- they did figure it out, and right away. Mostly, it was DEA, but secondarily, a wide range of other 'targets' were selected: the Secret Service, Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms, US Marshals, the IRS, The US Accounting Office, The USCG, US Customs, FBI, The Environmental Protection Agency, and even a couple of Federal Judges. These are not 'soft intelligence targets.'  And, for the most part, these are not very 'meaty' targets likely to yield much useful information... especially to an ally who already has good access to sensitive data provided to it, for the asking. Thus we come up to a more interesting question to ask. Image from IBIS - Imaginative Book Illustration Society

Why were they spying on US intelligence and law enforcement?
        White knights talking backwards...
 

from Christian Science Monitor

We might better get the answer to that by looking at how they did their spying. Out in the open, clumsily, continually observed, and generously offering clues that something was not right. They were frequently observed diagramming building floor plans -- in plain view of uniformed security and other 'target' personnel. They repeatedly asked strange questions directly, again, even of uniformed security -- and made statements that indicated an inappropriate attention to sensitive matters. And they acted strangely and congregated in suspicious places at suspicious times -- in vehicles directly traceable to their true identities. In short, they did everything possible to get noticed and identified. It worked. When questioned, they admitted relationships with known Israeli intelligence operations or front organizations -- and admitted (in many cases) 'former' ties with Israeli intelligence, military, and national security posts. This clearly made their claimed story of being art students selling art to get through school highly unlikely. How many CIA agents and Green Berets, after 'retiring,' wander off to Europe to sell gummy bears -- as a group? They offered passports showing their true travel -- showing frequent trips into the US from a variety of red flag points of origin. This is also curious...

Like many professional spies infiltrating another country, these spies took circuitous routes into the US. Rather than using passports and visas from Israel and taking flights from there, they instead used passports and visas from a huge list of other nations, and in some cases, citizenship papers from those nations. They took round-a-bout flights through other destinations before entering the US, as well. The passports and routes featured countries such as Thailand, Laos, India, Kenya, Australia, Germany, Amsterdam, Canada, and a host of nations from Central and South America. That way, if anyone was caught or compromised, there would not be a 'profile' of like persons to note and watch for.

Yet, later, they undertook to alter their tactics dramatically: They switched targets to law enforcement and the intelligence community and cause people to take notice and ask questions. When asked, even outside of actual interrogation, they even volunteered their factual travel destinations and travel histories in the US without concealment. When arrested, they again volunteered all that information in order to actually create a profile for the FBI, and their friends. It is not only as if they wanted to be caught, but Indeed, they wanted their footsteps traced -- and that is my conclusion. This leads to the next, and perhaps most important question, which in turn will lead us to the answer of the former -- and even more than we bargained for.

And what should happen once caught spying?
        And you know you're going to fall...

A proper counterintelligence operation means you DO NOT ARREST, JAIL, PROSECUTE or DEPORT a detected spy. Not right away, at least. You let them go on about their business as if you are none the wiser, and you follow them, and find out who they work with, what they are doing, and you try to get the goods on the whole operation. You analyze their true threat, intentions, and any damage already done. THEN you arrest, jail, prosecute or deport, and seek to undo the damage. Or, perhaps you infiltrate their organization and find other ways to take advantage, such as passing along disinformation. I think a proper counterintelligence response is exactly what the Israelis wished. The real spying had already been done well before we were looking their way. They had already entered the United States several years earlier, and had been spying undetected -- on their true target of interest, since 1997. Evidence is that their target was al Qaeda terrorists known to the Israelis to have entered the US with the blessings (a blind eye) of the US intelligence community and military, as revealed in the time line time and again. This is confirmed by German intelligence as reported in Der Spiegle -- the Germans aware of Israeli operations in the US a full year before they deliberately tipped their hands to DEA and friends. I think the Israelis were rightly curious why the US would allow so many terrorists into the country in a way that was literally helpful -- and obvious (in my opinion) to even the terrorists... which would also make the Israelis curious to find out why the terrorists would willingly enter the US knowing they were literally within the jaws of the lion's mouth opened wide. Just how was it that the terrorists knew they would be safe? Thus, the Israelis followed and observed, themselves undetected for years -- because they wanted it that way and took appropriate care to insure it. And what did they find while in a true stealthy spy mode?  Neither media nor the US intelligence community seems to have raised this question.  But you can bet that the intelligence community had not only raised it once aware of their presence, but took steps to answer it -- per the proper counterintelligence response. Yet in this matter, the appearance is that the spies were simply rounded up and deported, their only crime being the spying already cited against intelligence and law enforcement. Why, it is almost as if government does not us to know what the spies had been doing all those years before getting so clumsy. Thus, the next question.

What did the spies uncover that caused them to want to be caught?
        And you've just had some kind of mushroom...
 

Mushrooms in our future?

It makes no sense -- that a spy ring would work quietly for years and then, suddenly, do things guaranteed to get them caught. But imagine this: what if they discovered a plot that implied treasonous alliances between the terrorists and the US military industrial establishment and intelligence community?  As a nation, Israel has an interest in seeing that terrorism does not flourish either at home or abroad, and thus, would want to thwart its every effort. But also, as an ally and a nation of general moral standing, they would find abhorrent the notion of US-terrorist friendships and wish to stop it on that basis. Yet, simply handing over what they uncovered would be risky. Since our very government was implicated, they would not know who to trust -- and in fact, might need devise some test to see how high up within the intelligence and military communities... and the civilian branches of government... such treason actually ran. Getting caught was the answer, and I can make a good case for it, if you will bear with me. The evidence more than suggests the Israelis did indeed find a consistent theme in their early efforts: the terrorists underwent training which invariably involved the US military and intelligence communities. That is documented in the treason time line. And, it would seem, there were likely connections with defense contractors, as well, somewhat visible in the time line. In fact, I'm willing to bet, there was such a curious pattern that the Israelis soon discovered a central theme, one which itself posed yet another mystery. That, in turn, required a significant effort on their part to unravel the clues. It meant traveling to many destinations and investigating many defense contractors involved in the 'connection' theme. The theme? This particular collective of military contractors and military organizations would frequently be tied to the same classified project, one which probably did not quite make sense to the Israeli with respect to the context of terrorism. Like any self respecting spy ring, they expanded their efforts to learn as much as possible about the classified project that they might learn the ties and meaning. And the really great thing about the intelligence game is... that there is this marvelous thing called the intelligence analyst. These people take all the puzzle pieces (uncovered intelligence facts) and project them into possible fits in an attempt to form a true image of what it all means. Not too hard, really -- if you get the right clues.

After the White Terrorist Rabbit
        When logic and proportion have fallen softly dead
 

And here they are:  Terrorists working hand in hand with the military industrial complex and intelligence community; a common secret project which revolves around remote controlled aircraft; known terrorist plans to include hijacking of aircraft for use as weapons of mass destruction; knowledge that what Israeli intelligence knows about those plans; the typically un-Islamic behaviors of the alleged hijackers who are supposedly undertaking their terrorism on deeply religious grounds as much as political; that the US intelligence community also knows these things but seems uninterested in the terrorists; and knowing about Operation Northwoods, a Department of Defense plan to commit acts of terrorism against US citizens and targets and put the blame on someone else in order to justify going to war with them. The Reichstag fire all over again. Their likely conclusion? The same as mine: There was a plot afoot to stage an act of terrorism involving hijacked airlines remotely piloted into select targets. I know. It sounds fantastic. But we will see the evidence pile up -- well beyond that offered elsewhere, to date. Well beyond. Smoking gun quality, perhaps. You be the judge. The evidence lies in three principle paths of exploration. The first path has been taken elsewhere by others before me, and will only be summarized here, in closing. It has to do with just who died in 911, and the mysterious circumstances under which they died. In a potentially related matter, there is also the deaths of five top microbiologists within the space of eight weeks under mysterious circumstances. Three of these were in the US, coincidentally in locations (and at times) where Israeli art students were active. I will add new revelations and more directly to these various deaths (911 and microbiologists to the matter at hand. The second path has to do with examination of the activities of select of the various key terrorists, who seem to time and time again bump into this same unmanned aircraft project. Within this, as espoused by others and not offered either here or in the time line as of yet, is a significant body of evidence that virtually every one of the alleged 911 hijackers had a double in the country, more than one set of identifications, were in two places at once, and thus, were not likely actually the individuals on the aircraft when the crashed. The terrorist's relationships to the defense contractors and their general activities are found in the time line -- work built upon that of others which I hope I have furthered, with brief mentions, here.

But the third path is all my own work, and as far as I am aware, you read it first, here. And that is where we will start. If my hypothesis is correct, the art students wanted a US counterintelligence operation set up against them so that they could lead the counterspies (FBI, et al) to follow along in their earlier footprints. Our side would rightly wonder what the Israelis were up to... what they were learning. The Israelis likely reasoned that once having discovered that through the process of counterintelligence, seeing the same strange questions which had sparked Israeli interest, the FBI would hopefully come to the same conclusions: treason and tyranny were afoot in America, and a great tragedy was about to unfold unless they acted to stop it.

It was a win win situational for the Israelis. If the US responded appropriately, the terrorism would be thwarted, and the US would clean house of a few traitors. On the other hand, if the US did not respond appropriately, they would know that the treason came from very high levels at the Pentagon, and the White House. That is because the FBI reports to the Justice Department which reports directly to the President. Knowledge of higher-level treason would buy them bargaining power -- give them blackmail capabilities to insure US favors for a long time to come. 'I know what you did last summer...'

Thus in belief that to get caught would give them one of these outcomes, they picked principally on DEA, first. They tried to bait their interest by early on establishing ties with known Israeli drug smuggling operations within the US. DEA did bite and did conduct peripheral investigation, but they also sent out interagency bulletins warning of a belief that there was some kind of spying involved. They were more concerned about the spying than the drug connections. Soon, these agencies were comparing notes. One such intercommunication sums up the matter with great detail. Of course, as it turns out, the US did kick the spies out without so much as a twitch regarding terrorists and the defense industry targets. Thus, blackmail wins this time. Here is how it went down.

Too many coincidences to be ignored
        One Pill makes you larger...
 

And if you are larger, you go high into the air?-- like Global Hawk... and like the flights of 911. From the record, we find that the Israeli entered the country as early as 1997, hot on the heels perhaps, of one Ali Mohammed and others frequenting the US in that time frame. We take a look at the cities the Israeli used as travel and residence destinations in the US. We also take note of the cities where the Israeli attempted to get the interest of DEA, et. al. What we find is an amazing set of 'coincidences' which just happen to be about as 'coincidental' as all of the like coincidences found in the other two paths of exploration which support the greater hypothesis offered here -- and all of these are mutually supportive one of the other. What we find is that each city involved in the art student histories has something in common. This is where the analyst can really shine, if he is good. So, what do these cities ALL have in common?  Ties to 911 by hook or by crook, or both. The hook is a tie to the activities of one or more terrorists, such as flight training, military training, employment within the defense industry, and so forth -- to include events directly related to 911 itself, in some cases.  The crook is by the strange 'coincidence' that almost all the cities also have something to do with Global Hawk (autonomously piloted aircraft -- no human operator) - the one common theme in ALL THREE investigative paths. (note: since first authoring this piece, it has also come to light that many of the cities involved indeed had 911 terrorists activity, as well as al-Qaeda fronts. This amplifies the point about to be made...)

You want examples? Over 40 cities were involved, and each and every one has some relationship to a Global Hawk facility, project, test, or training exercise. Many of these are very small communities well away from larger cities and what is considered the normal local for hi tech or defense firms. Thus, the counter argument that 'any' large American city has a good likelihood of harboring a firm related to any given defense contract does not wash. Check out this alphabetical list of bitter pills that make you larger. Also telling is that every military base the art students visited had something key to do with Global Hawk. In all, the Israelis travels put them near or at twelve different military bases doing Global Hawk work. In fact, it appears that all but one military base known to be involved in Global Hawk was on their shopping list -- there being thirteen bases readily identified as so involved.9

Albuquerque - nearby Sandia National Laboratory was involved in Global Hawk radar systems work

Baltimore - Grumman Electronic Sensors and Systems work on Global Hawk there; 911 hijacker Ziad Jarrah got a traffic ticket there in the same time frame as the art students; money from the wife of Saudi Prince Bandar, Saudi Ambassador to the US, was traced there on its way to al Qaeda.

Baton Rouge - Honeywell has a facility in nearby Geismar, La, but there is no information readily available on what is done, there

Burlington Mass - Alphatech was involved in Global Hawk radar work here; Raytheon and two subcontractors, Coltech in nearby Methuen, and Carlo Gavazzi, Inc. in Brockton, all worked on J-STARS, a key component in Global Hawk communications and flight operations; Hanscom AFB, where J-STARS operations are headquartered, is also nearby; MITRE, a cross between a defense contractor and an intelligence community think tank, operating in the area, is working on ISRIS, which gives Global Hawk the ability to be operated from a Web browser

Chattanooga - Arnold AFB is there, where the Arnold Engineering Development Center conducted research work for Global Hawk

Chicago - Headquarters of Boeing Aircraft, into which Global Hawk would need be installed (Boeing 757 and 767s); also the headquarters of United Airlines; and a United Airlines Regional Maintenance facility where avionics upgrades may have been useful for the installation of Global Hawk

Cincinnati/Wright Patterson AFB - WP AFB is within commute range of Cincinnati, Columbus, and Indianapolis, a Global Hawk research facility was at the base, one of five considered as home base for Global Hawk; an American Airlines Regional Maintenance facility is located at Indianapolis, where avionics upgrades may have been useful for the installation of Global Hawk; Rockwell Collins (Honeywell) works on J-STARS, there, a key component in Global Hawk communications and control; Raytheon itself operates a Global Hawk site a couple of hours away in Ft. Wayne. It is especially telling that the art students actually entered the AF base

Colorado Springs - home to NORAD, who would need give the hijacked planes a clear shot at their targets by insuring no fighter interceptors would be available on a timely basis; and Pathfinder Technology, a company involved in Global Hawk radar systems is also there; Schriever AFB, operates a backup NOAA Satellite Operations Control Center, there, likely a key contributor to actual Global Hawk operation (it communicates to/from and is directed by various types of satellites in flight.)

Columbus, Ga -- Robins AFB, where aircraft used in J-STARS research and development operated from, J-STARS being a critical component of the command and communications portion of Global Hawka; there was a 1999 fake terrorist anthrax related incident in Columbus at the post office adjacent to Ft. Benning in the time frame when the art students were there.

Dallas/Ft. Worth - Vought Aircraft produces Global Hawk wings; Northrup Grumman's Integrated Systems HQ is located there, too -- Northrup assuming Global Hawk from Raytheon; American Airlines headquarters is there (so both 911 airline HQs are in the same city as a key Global Hawk contractor's HQs and Boeing HQ); American Airlines Regional Maintenance facility is also there, where avionics upgrades may have been useful for the installation of Global Hawk, and thus, each airline has a maintenance facility and their own HQ in or near a Global Hawk prime contractor location and their HQ. This might be a deciding or critical factor in choosing the airlines to be targeted; in the time frame the art students were there, public disclosure reveals dozens of al Queda terrorist cells and funding charities are located in Dallas. Shortly after 911, there is a raid on a local Internet Service Provider hosing over 500 Islamic Web sites - one of these, The Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development is represented legally by a firm with close ties to the Bush White House, Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld; A grade school student there expressed prior knowledge of 911 events the day before

Denver  - Joint FAA/USAF study on Global Hawk was conducted here

Edgewater, Jersey City, and Newark -- Kearfott Guidance and Navigation is a Northrup Grumman subcontractor providing the critical GPS and inertial guidance systems for Global Hawk - located within easy commute of all three New Jersey locations; additional Global Hawk subcontractors in the nearby area: Datametrics Corporation in Florham Park; Telephonics Corporation in Huntington, NY; Orbit International Corporation in Hauppauge, NY.; 911 hijackers, including Nawaf Alhazmi and Hani Hanjour, are living in this area at the same time the art students are in the US., along with al Qaeda susptects, Ayub Khan and Mohammed Azmath; Diaa Mohsen and Mohammed R. Malik, working for Pakistani ISI, are also in the area at this time; Two local area grade school students attending different schools expressed foreknowledge of 911 events the day before

Garland, T x - home to C3I, a company involved in Global Hawk radar; A Garland grade school student expressed foreknowledge of the 911 attacks the day before.
.
Houston - Raytheon Aircraft Service facility where Global Hawk could be installed into aircraft as part of normal maintenance or avionic upgrade

Kansas City, Mo - Joint FAA/USAF study on Global Hawk was conducted there

Las Vegas - Global Hawk test flights took place regularly at Indian Springs Test Grounds North of Vegas; 911 hijackers Mohamed Atta, Alshehhi, Nawaf Alhazmi, Ziad Jarrah, Khalid Almihdhar and Hani Hanjour visit Las Vegas to gamble, drink, and have prostitutes in the same time frame as this testing, the same time frame as the art students are in the US.

Los Angeles/El Segundo/Studio City/Duarte/Encino - Raytheon Electronic Systems, HQ for Global Hawk project development; Joint FAA/USAF study on Global Hawk conducted there; American Airlines Regional Maintenance facility there; near to Raytheon's El Segundo HQ for Global Hawk; plus Global Hawk subcontractors in the area: Litton Guidance & Control Systems in Woodland Hills; Phoenix International in Orange; Interstate Electronics Corporation in Anaheim; 911 hijakcers Nawaf Alhazmi and Khalid Almihdhar are there in the same time frame as the Israeli Students; Ali Mohamed, CIA/Military Intelligence Double Agent is there in 1989 trying to get a job for a local defense contractor (unspecified, but logic dictates it was Raytheon or a subsidiary.)

Louisville/Lexington, Ky - the Blue Grass Army Depot in conjunction with Raytheon/E-Systems (CIA enmeshed proprietary) operates a Special Forces support unit there to modify aircraft for special missions; the headquarters for Jackson Stephens (associated with NSA, Bush, goes bump in the night in almost every American tragedy since JFK) is there. This would have been a good place to modify test aircraft, perhaps the one flown by Mohammed Atta into Miami International Airport and abandoned on the taxiway when the engine stalled out.

Miami/Ft. Lauderdale/Plantation/Cape Coral/Tamarac/Sunny Isles Beach, Fl - 911 Hijacker Mohamed Atta landed a small plane here and mysteriously abandoned it on the taxiway, blocking commercial flights. Miami was the airport used to test CPDLC technology, a part of the communications and control capabilities of Global Hawk, raising the possibility that Attah was flying a Global Hawk modified aircraft in a simulated hands-off mission to prove its workability to his personal satisfaction. Miami (and New York) were the principle ports of entry for virtually all hijackers and art students. Plantation, Fl, is the home of a large complex of CIA proprietaries established since the 1960s, involving a large number of mission profiles to include development of high-tech devices and communications systems, and mission training; microbiologist Benito Que was murdered in the parking lot at his Miami place of employment by four men with baseball bats. Also located in the area were a number of condominiums tracked to the Saudi Royal Family and other Arabic elites, all of whom were present in Florida just miles from President Bush on 911. It is known that Mohammed Atta and other of the terrorist training at the Venice flight schools also frequently visited this area, and made phone calls to it; large numbers of al Qaeda terrorists use Miami as their port of entry and make the greater Miami area their staging area in the same time frame as the Israeli art students are in the US.

Minneapolis - General Dynamics Information Systems in adjacent Bloomington is a Global Hawk subcontractor; suspected hijacker Zacarias Moussaoui takes Pan Am International Flight School lessons on 747 Simulator, there at the same time Israeli art students are in the country

Melbourne Fl - Northrup Grumman Integrated Systems worked on Global Hawk;  Digital Equipment Corp is a Global Hawk subcontractor

Memphis, Tn - Raytheon facilities there are not known to be associated with Global Hawk, but nearby Federal Express has been conducting research into unmanned cargo planes - much of the Federal Express fleet based on Boeing passenger jets; a Federal Expess worker tries to crash a company plane into an office building in Memphis in 1994; Microbiologist Don C. Wiley 'suicided' despite clues to the contrary, there

Montgomery, Al - Maxwell AFB, where Global Hawk war games and practice missions were conducted, all at a time when 911 hijacker and 'pilot' Mohamed Atta attended the school where the war games were conducted, and when the art students were in the US. It is extremely significant that the art students visited the air force bases

Oklahoma City/Tinker AFB  - Joint FAA/USAF research on Global Hawk took place in OK City; Tinker AFB is a Global Hawk research center, the base being one of five considered as Global Hawk home base. It is significant that the art students actually visited the base; several 911 hijackers and other suspect al Qaeda members take flying lessons from local schools outside of town while the Isreali art students are in the country.

Orlando, Fl - Lockheed Martin conducted Global Hawk radar tests, there; several groups of al 911 hijackers and other suspect al Qaeda members make this their staging area

Palmdale CA - Northrup Grumman's assembly plant #42 for Global Hawk is there, and it was from there that the Global Hawk was taken to nearby Edwards AFB for flight testing (flown to Australia and back); Edwards AFB is one of the five home bases proposed for Global Hawk

Richmond, Va - McGuire AFB's 514th Combat Support Group worked with Global Hawk during Enduring Freedom - Global Hawk's first transoceanic flight was controlled from a trailer at Ft. Bragg and, alternately, a trailer at an undisclosed Virginia location (I argue this would logically be a CIA operation), and, later, a Navy warship docked in the Norfolk Naval Air Station. The mission was flown from Elgin AFB in Florida to Portugal in May of 2000. It is important to note that CIA/Military Intelligence double agent 'terrorist' Ali Mohamed frequented Ft. Bragg earlier, (while the art students were also in the US) and was also at Maxwell AFB when special training and exercises involving Global Hawk were underway -- also while art students were in US.

Sacramento/Oakland/San Francisco/Palo Alto/Fresno - Joint FAA/USAF research on Global Hawk took place here; Beale AFB  is an easy commute, where Global Hawk research was done, the winning base of five proposed Global Hawk home bases; United Airlines operates a maintenance facility in both S.F. and Oakland, where avionics upgrades may have been useful for the installation of Global Hawk

Salt Lake City - L3 Communications works on Global Hawk radar systems there

San Antonio - Boeing operates a ìmilitary aerospace maintenance and modificationî facility there, and Northrup Grumman's Information Technology Division is there

San Diego - This is Global Hawk Central: Ryan Aeronautical - Original developer of Global Hawk, bought by Raytheon, is in El Segundo, and was THE primary Global Hawk facility; Corporate Computer Centers located there build the computer system required for communications with Global Hawk, Northrup Grumman assumed Global Hawk from Raytheon and their primary facility is also there, now; Orincon works on Global Hawk radar; Cubic Defense Systems worked on J-STARS, a key component in Global Hawk communications and flight operations; Teledyne Ryan does Global Hawk work there on radio telemetry; then there is the grandaddy of all CIA/military intelligence research/think tank/businesses, S.A.I.C., which is a Global Hawk contractor located there. SAIC has been at the heart of many a strange bump in the political night, and has a Board of Directors that looks like a Pentagon/Langley old boy's club; 911 hijackers Nawaf Alhazmi and Khalid Almihdhar are there in the same time frame as the Isreali art students, and known to frequent strip clubs; Amr Elgindy who lived there and had a murky relationship with FBI would subsequently sell short $300K in stock in time to avoid the 911 stock crash

Scottsdale, Az - Motorola Government Electronics Group is there, working on J-STAR, which is part and parcel of Global Hawk multi platform communications capabilities - a key element in Global Hawk flight operations

Seattle - Boeing Aircraft's old headquarters and factory site for 757 and 767 aircraft, competitive Global Hawk research and development done there, as well as overhaul service to all major airlines, including American and United; Seattle is a secondary port of entry for both terrorists and the Israeli spies

Springfield, Mo - Interconnect Technologies, a Raytheon operation is located there (however, there are no clear ties to Global Hawk as of this date)

St. Louis, Mo (Ladeu) - Northrop Grumman and McDonald Douglas both located there do work on Global Hawk; Boeing works on something called IULS, there, which is technology useful to modification of avionics software without detection (see Global Hawk Tech in Review)

Tampa/Ft. Myers/MacDill AFB - foremost is that these communities virtually surround the Venice, Fl. flight training schools set up by CIA through Iran/Contra assets and used by Mohammed Attah and other terrorists - it being just as telling that the Israeli art students were here at the same time; Central Command for the Afghanistan war was located at MacDill AFB, which launched first transoceanic flight of Global Hawk (test) as well as Global Hawk missions in the war;  A young teenaged boy enamored with Osama bin Laden crashes a private plane into a tall bank, blamed on Acne medication, but a blood test revealed no such medication in his blood stream -- and his family has ties to the Mafia, CIA, and is Islamic; home of the Islamic college professor arrested in Feb 2003 for aiding Islamic fundamentalist organizations funding Osama bin Laden; It is particularly significant that the Israeli art students entered the air base

Topeka - A short drive to Raytheon aircraft storage and salvage facility not known to be associated with Global Hawk at this time. However, CIA likes to use aircraft storage facilities as bases for clandestine operations, and frequently involves military contractors in proprietaries

Tulsa - Aeromet is a Global Hawk subcontractor for sensors; Copeland Mfg. Corp provides flight control systems for Global Hawk -- their CEO on Feb 14th 2001 pled guilty to charges of false statements to US Government on Global Hawk contract -- the time frame when the art students provided information on their travels to the Tulsa area to US authorities. Could the prosecution have been to silence the CEO on any possible disclosure involving Global Hawk and 911?

Tuscon - Raytheon Missile Systems test involving Global Hawk conducted from here involving almost every major subcontractor and a few minor ones. This was the first tactical application of Global Hawk in a combat scenario as a spy plane capable of target information relay; alleged 911 hijacker Hani Hanjour takes english lessons here in 1990, but likely left the area before the Israeli art students arrived; Osama bin Laden purchases a  surpluss military jet cargo plane from somewhere near here in 1993

Washington, DC. - there are nearly a half-dozen firms working on Global Hawk in the D.C. area; CIA's Langley is in the area;  the Suitland, Md, NOAA Satellite Operations Control Center is in the area, a likely key contributor to Global Hawk operation (it communicates to/from and is directed by various types of satellites in flight); microbiologist Robert M. Schwartz was murdered near his home at nearby Leesberg, involving Satanic rites

Wichita, Ks - There is a Boeing Aircraft Maintenance and Modification Center directly adjacent to the McConnell AFB. Wichita is home to Raytheon, Boeing, and LearJet, all of which play a role in this presentation on Global Hawk

Frankfurt, Germany - included because while the art students were in Frankfurt, German Intelligence was warning the US about al Qaeda plans to hijack US civilian jets; Frankfurt was a virtual hub of al Qaeda activity in this time frame, nearly every major 911 hijacker having either visiting, passing through, or contacting someone here in the time leading up to 911

Toronto, Canada - included because while the art students were in Toronto, several of the alleged 911 hijackers and other al Qaeda members were in Toronto - and a US Naval Intelligence Officer was in the Toronto jail in this time frame, subsequently predicting in writing some of the events of 911, and fearing for his life as the US tried to extradite him on credit card fraud charges -- for using his own card

Sydney, Australia - included because one of the art students was in Sydney when the Global Hawk was undergoing flight testing, there - a very telling situation.

The victims of 911 call out for justice.
        And One pill makes you small...

And the smallest voice of all is that of the dead. Of course, the dead can speak, and loudly, if someone would simply notice their circumstances of their death about a wrongfull death. We certainly have that in 911. In this case, the loud cries come in the form of 'too many' coincidentally dead persons from certain quarters. These in turn support those other 'coincidences' already noted regarding art student travels. We find it in dead microbiologists, too.  But no where do we find it more than in the list of those who died on 911 as result of the air crashes themselves. Each flight had someone on board of interest to us, here. Some flights were virtually packed with people of interest -- mostly with a common tie to one another and our topic. The cumulative count for people of interest, especially given their relationships, is the loudest scream from the grave, of all. They may be screaming why they died -- and it may have nothing to do with random chance. The odds are extremely against chance, and the fact that some of the passengers had unexpectedly moved their travel dates without explanation to arrange this coincidence... is most troubling. But most troubling of all, is that EVERY ONE of these individuals not only has some potential tie to Global Hawk... but they all, each and every one... lived AND worked in areas within easy commute of the locations where the Israeli art students were snooping about. The question is thus somewhat logical to raise: did they have to die because the investigation of the art students had led to discovery by the US intelligence community of Israeli interest in these persons and their activities, or perhaps because they would have had special knowledge that would have allowed them to put two and two together to reveal an Operation Northwoods scenario (and name the players)? Perhaps it was even both, or a fear of it. Like the JFK assassination, if there was an Operation Northwoods, there could be zero tolerance for witnesses. Take a look: Specifically, there are 23 persons associated with firms which worked on Global Hawk. In fact, it is incredible that in two of the flights, nearly one person in ten fit that circumstance (Flight 11 had 81 passengers, 7 of which were Global Hawk related, Flight 77 had 64 passengers, 6 of which were Global Hawk related.) Some of these people have extremely clear ties to the Global Hawk project, others may be argued as being peripheral or less clear. A small handful simply work for firms associated with the military industrial complex who represent speculative or potential relationships to Global Hawk, or other matters related to 911 or terrorism. For example, there are a several persons killed at the Pentagon who, in addition to ties to the defense industry, also have ties to Langley (CIA).

Some such persons (and others) seem to have certain facts being publicly associated with them as to suggest some covert operation is being concealed with disinformation to cover up or achieve a cleansing of their background. To be fair, any such truths do not in and of themselves indicate Global Hawk is involved, given that the Pentagon and CIA work together on many kinds of projects. Still, taken with the huge number of more direct ties found for others, it makes one wonder just how deep the water goes.

I organize this list unlike others of its kind on the Web. They list by flight number, then by name, then by occupation. Of key concern here is the occupation, which is the order in which I will list it, explaining their employer's relationship to Global Hawk. I at first hesitated to list actual names out of respect for their families. Surely, there are innocent parties here. However, the names are posted with the same information elsewhere on the Web, and thus, the concern is rendered moot. To better put a human face on these names, then, and illustrate them as heroes, I will add their photographs where available. Here then, is the list.

Raytheon #3 - Flight 11: Peter Gay, of Tewksbury, MA, was VP of Operations for Electronic Systems Division of Raytheon in El Segundo. He should have been on a flight the day earlier, but postponed his trip one day. There is no explanation why, but it cost him his life. Tewksbury is near Burlington, Ma, where Israeli art students were very active, and El Segundo is another place where the art students gravitated

One test of prior knowledge is if one fails to ask an obvious question.
        The ones that mother give you, don't do anything at all
 

In an appropriately conducted counterintelligence operation, there comes a point when you have collected enough information on your opponents activities that you feel comfortable that all the players have been identified, their activities and mission is understood, the threat thereof has been analyzed, and it has been deemed that there is more advantage or expediency to capture them than to infiltrate them quietly and continue surveillance. Thus, that the US did round up and arrest the spies tells us point blank the FBI fully understood their entire mission in this country since 1997 -- and decided infiltration was not beneficial. OK. Well, then, in such cases, the usual thing to do is to try and imprison the spies. Of course, in this case, we might argue that because they were allies, we did not wish to embarrass our good friends in the Middle East... terrorist war and all going on over there... and thus simply evicted them from the country. Why, we didn't even file an official protest. You can bet there was a private conversation, somewhere. Perhaps several. When the press got wind of it and made a few news announcements, someone got on the phone and arranged to squash the news stories promptly. As a result, the breaking news network, FOX (Brit Hume) actually pulled their Web pages which echoed the one-time broadcast, and refused all inquiries after the original and Web versions. Such is the state of 'the free press', the Fourth Estate of Government (which is why I call it the military industrial intelligence media complex -- MIIM.) So we see that the government took no action other than that taken against media. This smacks very much of a cover up. It appears government wishes us to believe that they were ejected only for the spying done since 2001. I must, respectfully, ask why FBI and Justice, and media, have not asked what the spies were doing between 1979 and 2001, while here in the US. Since government and media has NOT asked that question, at least not elected to share any answer... it must be supposed that the answer would not make us very happy. I submit the answer is as indicated by the evidence... the Israeli travel locations/dates, relative to Global Hawk and terrorist activities (often one and the same events.)

Global Hawk Tech in Review
        When the men on the chessboard Get up and tell you where to go
 

Parody derived from  Intuit Software game cover for Battle Chess

While I have a background in the air force and some experience in flying, and have acquired considerable knowledge about Boeing 7xx series aircraft as a result of the Flight 800 investigation, I will not presume to call myself an expert on these matters. What you will find here is a summary of technical material available on the Web about the technological building blocks known to be a part and parcel of Global Hawk technology. While the matters are technical in nature, their presentation at these various Web sites is not unfathomable. Still, should the reader wish to take exception to my explanations on the basis of concrete knowledge or expertise, I will be happy to review and make changes as appropriate. But understand that aviation engineers (Aviation International News) have already stated that to achieve remote control of most modern jet aircraft is technology that already exists, and requires only simple modification of avionics software and flight controls. Taking a look at Global Hawk, we find the original project was code named Pegasus. The entire concept is simple: build an aircraft that can be programmed, launched, flown, and retrieved from anywhere on the face of the earth - such as another aircraft, a ship, a building, an RV or trailer, or perhaps even using a backpack of a specially equipped soldier. All of this has been achieved. The Global Hawk is a 116 foot wingspan aircraft that can fly above 65,000 feet and loiter for up to 36 hours on site -- or fly 12,000 miles without refueling. While it is considered a reconnaissance vehicle, it can be armed with a variety of limited weapons for specialized use (2,000 lb capacity,) and is designed to help mark and track multiple targets until weapons delivery is achieved. It costs $45-50 million apiece. The first three that have been built have been destroyed (shot down/crashed), but 50 more are planned (at least two are currently in service as of this writing.) Event he US Coast Guard will have access to Global Hawks for drug interdiction and border control missions. Flight tests have been undertaken well before 911, to include intercontinental flights from take off to landing, and even runway taxi by remote computer control. Not so much as a joy stick is needed, it being entirely GPS and terrain mapping friendly. Such tests have involved simulated combat missions as well as more traditional flight tests, and appear to have involved elements of the USAF, Army, Navy, and CIA, as well as military contractors. For one of the best presentations on Global Hawk, visit the Aerospace Centre Web page <http://www.defence.gov.au/aerospacecentre/publish/paper76.htm> The Aussies are more forthcoming than their US partners.

We also find Honeywell was one of the Global Hawk contractors who worked on a number of components within the Global Hawk platform. Among these was a software driven avionics flight control management systems (FMS). Honeywell also manufactures a new FMS which it has recently sold to both United and American Airlines for use on 767 and 757 aircraft such as were used in the 911 attacks on America. Honeywell also manufactures and maintains the air quality and environmental controls on these aircraft series (remember this point.) What is interesting is that the name for the new Honeywell FMS just mentioned as purchased by UAL and AAL is 'Pegasus.'  The Pegasus involves something called FANS-1 which is a new standard in FMS specifications and capabilities developed by Boeing for 756 and 767 series aircraft.

FANS-1, in turn, meets operational parameter guidelines established, in part, by the findings and recommendations of the United States Air Force Scientific Advisory Board report (Sept 1998) on Global Air Navigation Systems (GANS). According to the document (SAB-TR-97-02), GANS compliance is also part and parcel of Global Hawk capabilities. Thus it would appear that Honeywell, a subcontractor on implementing Global Hawk GANS capabilities in a project named Pegasus, has also implemented GANS compliance into 911 aircraft in a commercial product bearing the same Pegasus name.

Make no mistake. FANS/Pegasus FMS is capable of complete preprogrammed robotized takeoff, climb, cruise, descent, and landing of a Boeing 757 or 767 without pilot intervention. Check it out at <http://www.boeing.com/commercial/757family/200back/back4.html>, which states:
ìA fully integrated flight management computer system (FMCS) provides for automatic guidance and control of the 757-200 from immediately after takeoff to final approach and landing. The precision of global positioning satellite (GPS) system navigation, automated air traffic control functions, and advanced guidance and communications features are now available as part of the new Future Air Navigation System (FANS) flight management computer Flight decks of the 757 and 767 are nearly identical and both aircraft have a common type-rating. Pilots qualified to fly one of the aircraft also can fly the other with only minimal additional familiarization.î

On Sept. 11, there would have been no needed modifications of the aircraft to achieve this level of unmanned flight capability. However, these systems have safeguards buit into them which prohibit certain flight actions. One matter is that the pilots have full override capability, and would do so sensing anything wrong. Another is that the system does not allow maneuvers which put the aircraft and occupants in danger, such as high-G banks, sudden dives, and flights into restricted airspace. This puts remote control at odds with the Global Hawk theory, on first glance...

But analysis of the flight paths of the 911 aircraft indicate that at least two of them and likely all four underwent flight maneuvers which generated in excess of five G's -- equivalent to fighter aircraft maneuvers, and well beyond either the skill capacity of the alleged 911 terrorist hijackers and the FANS-1/Pegasus system's safety parameter. Thus, if 911 was a terrorist flown set of missions, their few hours of training gave them the equivalent of a lifetime of combat and civilian aviation experience. If we discount that notion, then we are left with the remote control option. If it was a remote or unmanned attack, some modification of the FCS systems would be required in order to allow such high G forces. For more on the G-force analysis, visit <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/psy-op/message/12271>, which also has some very interesting and viable data on black box analysis which also supports remote control of the aircraft.

Integral to meeting Pegasus, FANS-1, and GANS requirements is a data communications protocol called CPDLC (controller-pilot data link communications - described as 'email between controllers and pilots'). Any UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) remote guidance needs would thus naturally need to be piggybacked upon CPDLC or equivalent technology in a given target aircraft. A presentation ironically dated Sept 11, 2001 by the National Business Aviation Association indicates United Airlines was also participating in FANS-1 at that time. American Airlines began using CPDLC in 1999 according to a Rockwell Collins (Honeywell) press release.

Avionics International News in fact indicates the first official commercial test of CPDLC was aboard and American Airlines 767 using Rockwell Collins (Honeywell) gear -- which used CPDLC to communicate with an ATC in the Netherlands on a flight between Dallas and Tulsa. The CPDLC test program itself was operated out of Miami. All of these locations, including the Netherlands, are associated in some way with 911 and/or the Israeli art student activities. And, we know CPDLC was tested at the Miami International Airport, where 911 hijacker Mohammed Attah walked away from an airplane that had landed, but which stalled out on the taxi way.

A part of CPDLC is upgradeability to support something called WAAS and LAAS, which are Wide Area and Local Area Augmentation Systems -- a GPS based guidance control for aircraft approaching landing (or in the case of 911, perhaps, target impact.)  Global Hawk technology aside, if a WAAS/LAAS beacon was placed in the WTC and the flight designated to hit it was equipped with CPDLC/WAAS/LAAS capabilities, it would be a relatively simple matter to program the aircraft to hone in on these targets as if in final approach. WAAS/LAAS is Raytheon developed technology developed for the Department of Defense.

However, landing approaches are a computerized event which effects not simply the altitude and heading, but the speed. Engines are throttled down, and at the same time, flaps are extended to compensate for the lower air speed and provide the needed lift to keep the plane in the air. The 911 aircraft, while it could arguably be stated their final flight paths closely resembled a landing pattern (descent and turn), actually speed up at the end, with no flaps extended. To arrange for WAAS./LAAS guidance as part of a plot to crash the planes into buildings would also require that the engine and flight controls be overridden, somehow. This might arguably account for the large number of engine and flight control personnel who died on the 911 aircraft.

Next, MITRE corporation has been working on something called ISRIS, which takes all the command and control and communications capabilities of Global Hawk and makes them accessible from a Web page. We know that test flights of Global Hawk have involved multiple command and control locations, to include portable trailers operating well away from military bases (i.e., CIA operation.) We Combined with or built into Global Hawk technology, the features described in the above paragraph would seem to spell doom for any aircraft intended for destruction at a given place and time.
 
 

Of course, these commercial products do not paint a picture of guilt for their makers. Indeed, the products were developed for commercial application across the full aviation spectrum, which just happens to include Global Hawk and other military applications. Global Hawk's unusual uses of the technology are not possible in civilian versions UNLESS the FCS software is somehow modified. Where such modification takes place, it is not the manufacturer who is implicated, it is the person or persons who conspired to make these changes and take advantage of Global Hawk capabilities for darker purposes. Yes, it MIGHT be true that those persons work for the contractors, but it is more likely that their true employer is CIA or military intelligence.

Regarding the technology discussed thus far, it has been stated in USAF documents that... ìAir Force tankers and transports, special-use platforms (except the HH-60, which does not fly transoceanic), bombers, and the Global Hawk UAV will require this capability to support a worldwide deployment capability.î  In other words, without compatibility with these communications protocols, these aircraft would be at risk with respect to mid air collisions or other accidents due to conflicting flight paths or runway approaches/take offs. The question remains: could this technology be abused and modified to give full Global Hawk capabilities to the 911 aircraft? Or, put another way: could a Boeing 757 or 767 FCS/avionics software be modified to support Global Hawk 'piracy' and takeover of the flights on 911?

Is it possible to upgrade the avionics and flight control of an aircraft undetected by the pilot?

A project undertaken by Boeing aircraft, manufacturer of all four planes used on 911, seeks to create something called IULS for the USAF under project BOLDSTROKE. IULS stands for Incremental Upgrade to Legacy Systems. A 'legacy system' in this case refers to existing aircraft. The project is labeled as in support of USAF F-15 fighter aircraft, but in review, it is clear that the technology can be implemented on any computer controlled aircraft, and in fact, the USAF mission statement for the product implies broad-based civilian and military use. It is interesting, given that 'generic' application, that this work was conducted by the Boeing Phantom Works group, which handles only highly classified projects. The one unique feature of IULS is this: it allows software changes to be incorporated into an existing avionics FCS without altering the pilot's perception of how the aircraft flies or the user-interface (user interaction with the aircraft controls). It is transparent, with no outward sign there has been any modification. In other words, an FCS can be upgraded with new capabilities without anyone even knowing it. Of course, that was not the stated goal for the project, but simply a byproduct of the methods used. This work was undertaken with the joint cooperation with Honeywell and General Dynamics, both makers of avionics for the commercial industry - as used by United and American Airlines. For more information on IULS, visit <http://www.boeing.com/news/releases/2000/news_release _000215n.htm>         X-Ray courtesy Bethesda Medical Center - Conspiracy buffs think it President Bush, not Homer Simpson. Hmmm

This technology was announced in Feb. of 2000, just weeks after Flight 990 crashed off the coast of Long Island. Elsewhere in the NOILWAR! Web pages, we have discussed how it might be that Flight 990 was a 911 related event, and how it might have represented tests of Global Hawk or other technology. According to an addendum to the Factual Report (Document # DCA00MA006) on the crash of Egyptair Flight 990, the plane's flight recorder was taken to Honeywell for production of 'true copies' to be provided to Egyptian authorities for their parallel investigation. ìThe tape removed from EgyptAir Flight 990's flight data recorder (FDR), a Sundstrand Data Corporation (now Honeywell) Universal Flight Data Recorder (UFDR), part number 980-4100-DXUS, serial number unknown, was hand-carried to the manufacturer's facility in Redmond, Washington, in order to copy the tape. The copy tape was produced for EgyptAir's use.î Well, the first red flag is 'serial number unknown.' They tried that on Flight 800, too -- even though early photographs of the FDR clearly showed the serial number plate was in tact . If Egyptair 990 had been equipped with a Global Hawk capability and had been remotely test flown into the sea, the flight recorders would likely have indicated the transition from manual control to remote control in some detectible ways -- though it is clear the air crew had no such clues available (which could be a function of ILUS.) Thus, it would be necessary for the the data to be altered prior to release to outside authorities. Further, the NTSB Accident Brief itself (document PB2002-910401) states ìThe Egyptian Team was hampered by the inability to communicate and coordinate directly with Boeing, Honeywell and other component manufacturers. All communications were required to go through the NTSB which, often at the group chairman level, filtered, modified, or in some cases, denied the Egyptian request.î Further, Flight 990 wreckage integrity with respect to investigative rules of evidence has been compromised in that the wreckage spent many hours aboard US Navy vessels prior to release to NTSB officials for examination. This, according to FEDERAL REGISTER INDEX, January--December, 1999, also represents a replay of Flight 800, where the US Navy was considered by many experts to be a principle suspect under friendly fire theories, and was the sole provider of crash recovery services. Thus, if the military had had any hand in the plane's downing, it would have had time to insure any components representing the offending technology used to crash the plane was not among the items released to NTSB.

Thus, if the military had had any hand in the plane's downing, it would have had time to insure any components representing the offending technology used to crash the plane was not among the items released to NTSB. Here are a few more morsels to feed your head. 1) Northrop Grumman's El Segundo site was recently awarded a $153,900,000 contract for modification of a Boeing 767 to support the Global Hawk project.  This plane will apparently be a flying command and control platform for Global Hawks in combat theaters. The Headquarters Electronic Systems Center, Hanscom AFG, is the contracting authority -- home of the J-STARS program and very much a part of the presentation above regarding Israeli art students.

Image: Found on a page promoting UAV technology from a wide variety of makers. It is apparantly a simple microcontroller module consiting of an RF coax connector, demodulator and reciever modules, digital - analog coverter, programmable array logic section, and microprocessor. This weighs only 5.5 ounces and would be capable of interfacing an FCS system directly to a given control mechanism, such as throttle control. This device could apparantly be used to modify almost any aircraft, such as Mohamed Atta's plane which he abandoned on the runway at Miami International.

2) Golfer pro, Stewart Payne died when his LearJet crashed under unusual circumstances. You may recall that military fighter jets had been dispatched by NORAD to pace the plane because it was off course and not responding to radio control. Apparently our Air Defense Command network operated extremely well then (Oct., 1999) but was completely off the wall on 911, unable to get a single plane into position on that day.

3) The Payne crash involved a complete and unexpected loss of pressurization once the aircraft reached high altitude. For some reason, emergency equipment and procedures were fruitless, and both the crew and passengers were rendered unconscious almost instantly. Imagine that... and recall all those instructions you are given at take off regarding drop down air masks and how you will have several seconds to put them on (put them on yourself, first, THEN your children.) Keep in mind that on all four planes, not one word of anything wrong was heard from the 12 air crew in the cockpit -- something was very effective in silencing them quickly. What can get past a locked cockpit door and do that so effectively?  Air, or to be more correct, a lack of it.

4) So why did emergency provisions not work on the LearJet? Perhaps this will help provide the answer -- considering that NTSB is not even asking the question. The air control systems on the LearJet 35 and the Boeing 757 and 767 are, like Pegasus, manufactured by Honeywell, too. If 911 was going to go off without a hitch, it is likely that the passengers and crews of the three planes that struck buildings (at least) would need to have their passengers and crews incapacitated for smooth transition. All the jets except Flight 93 veered from course shortly after reaching altitude, where loss of oxygen would be critical. Flight 93, however, kept on course for an extended time, perhaps because something did not go as expected (the environmental controls did not fail) or perhaps because it was meant to end as it did to give us martyred heroes and live cell phone calls.

5) For another, the jet fighters sent to intercept it were from Elgin AFB. Not only is this one of the Global Hawk Air Force bases, but it is also very near the departure point of the Payne flight (Orlando), which makes all the more mysterious why there was such a delay in launching fighters on 911. And, of course, Orlando is an Israeli art student haven -- the plane flew from from Orlando on a charter air service based there. Thus, I submit, it is possible that the Payne flight was a test of the ability to completely and quickly incapacitate crew and passengers in a way that could not be detected in any crash investigation. That is where it stands, today. NTSB has no clue as to why these people blacked out so quickly.
 

6) And perhaps the best tidbit for last. We now know that the Pentagon had conducted special exercises representing aircraft crash-attacks against the Pentagon before 911. In fact, these exercises involved a scale model of the Pentagon - see image. There is a problem in the first place with the notion of the Pentagon conducting such tests, because it implies prior knowledge. The photo virtually proves it, in two ways:  Note the scale high rise buildings in the foreground. Why are these there? Those buildings in the real world are not even anywhere near the Pentagon - if you look closely you can see they are on a separate table, which would need to be moved some distance back to achieve proper relational position. Since the Pentagon is symetrical in design, and freeway access is fixed regardless of which side of the building is attacked, why was it neccessary to mocel these high rise buildings in the area?  Because they would be needed to insure that scale models of 767 aircraft would clear these buildings and still be able to strike the Pentagon at the correct location. In like manner, note these buildings have visual details on the surfaces on the far side from the Pentagon - the side we are looking at -- useful for photographing angles of approach with realistic detail, something needed perhaps in any remotely flown aircraft where pilots would need to know exactly what they were looking at. None of these features serve a single purpose for the fire drills they are claimed to represent.

Now that we Alice types have been somewhat educated in the workings of our own particular brand of Wonderland...
