POST-SCRIPT: this post has taken me a couple of days to type up, because of the amount of information and research in it. If you dont want to go thru and read all of it, you can also go to Google Video, and watch “9-11 Loose Change” or “Martial Law: 9-11 Rise of the Police State, Parts 2 and 3″ (part 1 isnt really related as much). However, this post contains some information not covered in those videos…
=========
Last time i left off at these words of our commentator:
“But of course this person simply used the wrong term, and meant that the government was behind it. I’ve heard the reasons why this is thought, building fell too fast, Pentagon hole was too small… 19 hijackers and a few masterminds didn’t well… something about that, who knows, all but this last thing has been countered and I’m not one to say that the reasons why it’s believed are wrong, but I am one to say that the motives are just not there. and the ones that are there are simply not worth the cost of being caught or even for that matter in hindsight what America, the government, has gained is just not that much, and then there’s the motives of why the government would want these things so extremely bad that they would murder 3500 some odd people and put the blame on confessing terrorists.”
Read again the first 2-3 sentences…. does that sound like someone who is certain about what he is talking about? that knows what they are saying and the facts and proofs behind his claims? my commentator, do you expect me to believe that ALL of the unanswered questions and evidences of govement complicity in 9/11 have been “countered” (by whom, when, how?) simply because you say so? ALL, that is, except one, which was not even phrased sensibly… (something about that, who knows..). “i’ve heard the reasons why this is thought” and what have you done about them? have you studied them as they deserve to be studied?? and if not (which you havent by your own admission) why not? Following are some of the questions that I and many many others have asked about 9/11:
1) PRE-KNOWLEDGE OF TARGETS: In one of the Sherlock Holmes Novels, the detective solves the crime by noting that “the dog did not bark” when the thief entered the house, and rightly concluded that it was the owner of the house (and the dog) that must have stolen his own house for certain motives, so as to not alarm his dog. if it was a stranger however, the dog would have barked. based on this, Michael Rivero of “What Really Happened” states:
“With a supposedly unknown number of planes flying across the country and crashing into buildings, with the President’s location at Booker Elementary announced in the media 3 days in advance, and with an airport just four miles away, how did the US Secret Service KNOW that Bush was not a target on 9-11?” The video is available on the internet. Look at it. Look at the president’s reaction in his face and body. while his country is being attacked, he continues to read about a goat to children for twenty minutes! this is the reaction of someone who already knows what is going on, and someone who knows he is safe, NOT someone who was unaware of the danger, and scrambles away to safety once he knows he is being attacked.
2) FEIGNED IGNORANCE AND FAKE EVIDENCE: We all remember when G. Bush and Con. Rice lied again and again when they stated in the days after 9-11 that “they could not possible know such a plan was underway, or that such an attack could or would take place” or various claims to that effect. in one instance, Rice even began crying and pleading to us to accept her innocent ignorance of the plans to attack. And yet just less than three days after 9-11, they already had the complete identities of the 19 supposed hijackers. How is that possible?
3) PURPOSELY IGNORED WARNINGS: Related to point #2 above, we also know they were lying thru their teeth because even mainstream media reported that there were numerous and repeated advanced warnings given to the US Gov’n, not only from US gov’n officials themselves, but also from many other countries.
a) Rice herself was warned of planned attacks on Jan ’01, according to the Washington Times (Feb 12, 2005)
b) warned by an Iranian Spy (London Guardian, Jan 24, 2004)
c) MI-6 warned American intelligence services two years before the attacks (Sunday Times Britain, June 9, 2002)
d) the New York Post on June 6, 2002 reported that the chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee uncovered new pre-911 warnings from a “variety of agencies”
e) Mossad warned CIA of attacks (Jerusalem Post, Sept 18, 2001)
f) warnings from the Italian police (LA Times May 29, 2002)
g) warnings from the French (VillageVoice.com, May 28, 2002), but US officials chose not to act on French warnings
h) Jordanian and Moroccan special services gave the CIA notice of preparations of an operation under code name “Great Wedding”, as reported by Kuwait’s Al-Kabas and the PRAVDA online news publication (May 24, 2002)
i) US and Israeli intel. agencies received warnings at least 3 months in advance of plans to hijack commercial aircraft to use as weapons, according to Germany’s FAZ, one of its most respected dailies.
j) Egyptian president Mubarak warned America (AP, 12/07/01 and NYTimes, 06/04/02)
k) Even the Taliban itself (!!) warned the US about the attacks (BBC News Sept 7, 2002 and NewsMax Sept 8, 2002)
l) Washington Times (Oct 2, 2002) reported: “Two terrorists who were on the hijacked airliner that hit the pentagon might have been located before Sept 11 but the FBI and CIA DID NOT ALERT immigration officials of the danger they posed, a Congressional investigator said…”
m) US News and World Report (06/10/02) stated “the FBI had a chance to infiltrate an al-Qaeda training camp in the months before the 9-11 attacks – and possibly learn about the coming strike – but the proposal was rejected by top officials…” We will see how this is significant later. but compare this to what the Washington Times (June 9, 2002) reported: “The chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee said… the hijackers would have been stopped had US officials acted on intelligence info available before the attacks.”
n) As if to further disprove the lies and claims of the government that they were not complicit in the attacks and knew nothing about the plans undertaken, we learn from MDW News (“Military District of Washington”) which is an Intra-News service for the Military, on Nov 3rd, 2000 (read that date again) about detailed simulated plane crash exercises at the Pentagon. I quote: “The Pentagon Mass Casualty Exercise, as the crash was called, was just one of several scenarios that emergency response teams were exposed to (from) Oct 24-26th (2000) in the Office of the Secretaries of Defense conference room. On Oct 24 2000, there was a mock terrorist incident at the Pentagon metro stop… to name just a few of the scenarios that were practiced to better prepare local agencies for real incidents.” Finally, we also now this, from a USA Today article (April 18, 2004; LINK):
“WASHINGTON — In the two years before the Sept. 11 attacks, the North American Aerospace Defense Command conducted exercises simulating what the White House says was unimaginable at the time: hijacked airliners used as weapons to crash into targets and cause mass casualties.
One of the imagined targets was the World Trade Center. In another exercise, jets performed a mock shootdown over the Atlantic Ocean of a jet supposedly laden with chemical poisons headed toward a target in the United States. In a third scenario, the target was the Pentagon — but that drill was not run after Defense officials said it was unrealistic, NORAD and Defense officials say.
NORAD, in a written statement, confirmed that such hijacking exercises occurred.”
4) NewsMax (Oct 4, 2001) ran a story on Dr. Tatyana Koryagina, who predicted the 9-11 attacks in July of 2001, who also stated that new attacks will come in the near term, “of a financial nature and otherwise”… “Who is behind these strikes? Koryagina claims the US is painting a false picture. She said the operation was not the work of 19 terrorists but a larger group seeking to reshape the world…The Koryagina claims are not easily dismissed, especially her clear indications in the interview before Sept. 11 that the attacks on America’s financial system would be of an unusual nature. Her comments also mirrored similar warnings issued by Russian officials.“
5) INSIDER TRAIDING – “follow the money” is the first rule of any criminal investigator. It is well documented that the CIA has monitored such trades – in real time – as potential warnings of terrorist attacks and other economic moves contrary to US interests.
The San Francisco Chronicle reported (Sept 29, 2001): “Investors have yet to collect more than $2.5 million in profits they made trading options in the stock of United Airlines BEFORE the Sept 11 terrorist attacks, according to a source familiar with the trades and market data. The uncollected money raises suspicions that the investors – whose nationalities and identities have not been made public – had advanced knowledge of the strikes.”
A September 21 story by the Israeli Herzliyya International Policy Institute for Counterterrorism, entitled “Black Tuesday: The World’s Largest Insider Trading Scam?” documented the following trades connected to the September 11 attacks:- Between September 6 and 7, the Chicago Board Options Exchange saw purchases of 4,744 put options on United Airlines, but only 396 call options… Assuming that 4,000 of the options were bought by people with advance knowledge of the imminent attacks, these “insiders” would have profited by almost $5 million.- On September 10, 4,516 put options on American Airlines were bought on the Chicago exchange, compared to only 748 calls. Again, there was no news at that point to justify this imbalance;… Again, assuming that 4,000 of these options trades represent “insiders,” they would represent a gain of about $4 million.- [The levels of put options purchased above were more than six times higher than normal.] (from an article by Michael Ruppert, written Oct 9, 2001):
SUPPRESED DETAILS OF CRIMINAL INSIDER TRADING LEAD DIRECTLY INTO THE CIA’s HIGHEST RANKS
CIA EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR “BUZZY” KRONGARD MANAGED FIRM THAT HANDLED “PUT” OPTIONS ON UAL
This was also reported by the UK “Independent” on Oct 14, 2001. The New York Post (May 25, 2002) reported: “ An accused inside-trader made suspicious stock trades on Sept. 10, leading investigators to believe he might have known about the terror attacks a day later, a federal prosecutor said yesterday.”
6) WAR GAME EXERCISES: The Assoicated Press (Aug 23, 2002) reported that the CIA were running drills of crashing planes into buildings on THE MORNING OF 9-11. We even know the names of these drills: Operation Northern Vigilance, Biowarfare Exercise Tripod II, Operation Vigilant Guardian, Operation Northern Guardian, and Operation Vigilant Warrior. Now we understand that these wargames were cover for the operational execution of 9-11, as researchers Alex Jones and Paul Joseph Watson detail in their thoroughly researched article (available here) which should be required reading.
“The drill scenario also explains a comment made by air traffic control personnel which was featured in a July 2004 BBC television report. Click here for that video clip and article. The controller is told that a hijacked airliner is heading for New York and responds by saying, “is this real world or an exercise?”
“In May of 2001 (again, notice the date), by presidential order, Cheney was handed direct control of all wargame and drill operations. This meant he was solely in charge of the overlapping NORAD drills and wargames on the morning of 9/11, that prevented Standard Operating Procedure from being implemented, and any of the hijacked planes being intercepted.” The website continues: (pay attention people)
“Now that we have established how NORAD were confused, delayed and distracted by the numerous wargames, the next question to ask is who if anyone was aware of which planes were ‘real world’ and which planes were ‘exercise’? The answer to this question will provide us with the name of the individual who ran the operatonal execution of the 9/11 attack.
Dick Cheney.
Cheney was initially taken by the secret service to an underground bunker in the White House called the Presidential Emergency Operations Center.
From there, according to CNN, Cheney directed the US government’s response to the unfolding attack.
Secretary of Transportation Norman Mineta was in the Presidential Emergency Operating Center with Vice President Cheney as Flight 77 approached Washington, D.C. On May 23, 2003 in front of the 9/11 Commission, Secretary Mineta testified:
“During the time that the airplane was coming in to the Pentagon, there was a young man who would come in and say to the Vice President, “The plane is 50 miles out.” “The plane is 30 miles out.” And when it got down to “the plane is 10 miles out,” the young man also said to the Vice President, “Do the orders still stand?” And the Vice President turned and whipped his neck around and said, “Of course the orders still stand. Have you heard anything to the contrary?”
As the plane in question hit the Pentagon, what else can we conclude but that the ‘order’ was not to shoot down the aircraft and to let it find its target.” (end quote).
Otherwise, the question is: how did bin Laden (solely without any help from the Amer military and government) get NORAD to stand down and not intercept those hijacked planes, like they’ve always done in the past? They had over 80 minutes advanced warning (Compare this to the reaction of F-16 jets when the jet carrying Payne Stewart flew off course, and they intercepted him within 25 minutes, as reported by USA Today 10/26/99). NORAD successfully intercepted off course and suspected hijackings 100% of 67 times during the year prior to 9/11 (AP, 8/13/02), each time in under 20 minutes. An Air Force F-15 “scrambles” to 29,000 feet in 2.5 minutes, normally intercepting in 15 minutes. This is NORMAL PROCEDURE. If NORAD had been left alone, they would have taken no delay in intercepting the planes. There were 35 US Air Force bases within range on 9/11, and Atlantic City F-16 fighters were only 8 minutes away from the hijacked planes. This isnt “negligence”. There’s no other explanation except gov’n complicity and pre-meditated planning and execution of the attacks.

7) LIVING HIJACKERS: At least seven of the Nineteen hijackers are still reported ALIVE after the 9-11 attacks. How can this be explained?
BBC News (Sept 22, 2001) reported that Waleed al-Shehri, one of the 19 supposed hijackers, has “turned up alive and well in Morocco” and that “he told Saudi journalists in Casablanca that he had nothing to do with the attacks on New York and Washington, and had been in Morocco at the time.”
The London Guardian (Sept 2, 2002) and Associated Press (Sept 11, 2004) reported that the father of Mohammad Atta stated that his son was still alive. This was also reported in “The Cairo Times, Vol. 5, Issue 29″.
RIYADH, Sept 17 (IslamOnline & News Agencies) – U.S. officials in Riyadh offered Abdul Rahman Said al-Omari an official apology in the presence of Saudi interior ministry officials for including his name among the list of suspects in the U.S. terrorist attacks, news agencies reported Monday.Omari, a pilot with Saudi Airlines, told the Saudi daily Al-Watan that he was amazed to see his name on the FBI’s list of suspects allegedly involved in the attacks on the Pentagon and World Trade Center Tuesday, Agence France-Presse (AFP) reported.Meanwhile, the mother of another Saudi man, also suspected in the September 11th attacks, said Monday that her son has been in Chechnya for two years with a relief committee operating in the tiny war-torn Muslim republic.The mother of Ahmad Ibrahim al-Ghamdi told Al-Watan that her son had been studying engineering in the Saudi city of Mecca before departing for Chechnya, AFP reported. The father of Fayez Mohammad al-Shehri, yet another Saudi suspect, also told the daily that his son had also left for Chechnya two years ago with the relief committee.
Notably, the preliminary lists of confirmed dead of American Airlines flights 11 and 77 and United flight 175, released September 13th by U.K. daily The Guardian, did not include any Arab or Middle Eastern names. (read that again, and then again. has it sunk in yet?) You can check the passenger lists out for yourself, here. Also, here. There are no Araic names on this list, let alone the names of the 19 alleged hijackers. How would they get into the planes without having their names and identities recorded?
Omari Number 1 Mr. Al-Omari, a pilot with Saudi Airlines, walked into the US embassy in Jeddah to demand why he was being reported as a dead hijacker in the American media.“a pilot with Saudi Airlines, was astonished to find himself accused of hijacking as well as being dead and has visited the US consulate in Jeddah to demand an explanation.” – Independent 17th September 2001
Omari Number 2 ” a Saudi man has reported to authorities that he is the real Abdulaziz Alomari, and claims his passport was stolen in 1995 while he studied electrical engineering at the University of Denver. Alomari says he informed police of the theft.” – ABCNews
“I couldn’t believe it when the FBI put me on their list. They gave my name and my date of birth, but I am not a suicide bomber. I am here. I am alive. I have no idea how to fly a plane. I had nothing to do with this.” – Telegraph 23rd September 2001
“The name [listed by the FBI] is my name and the birth date is the same as mine, but I am not the one who bombed the World Trade Center in New York,” Abdulaziz Alomari told the London-based Asharq Al-Awsat newspaper.
“It was proved that five of the names included in the FBI list had nothing to do with what happened.” – Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister Prince Saud Al-Faisal told the Arabic Press after meeting with President George W. Bush on Sept. 20th.
One writer wrote: In September 2002, Mueller told CNN twice that there is “no legal proof to prove the identities of the suicidal hijackers.” After that admission a strange thing happened – nothing. No follow-up stories. No follow-up questions. There was dead silence and the story disappeared. It was almost as if no one wanted to know what had happened. In fact, the FBI didn’t bother to change the names, backgrounds or photographs of the alleged 19 hijackers. It didn’t even deny the news reports suggesting that the names and identities of at least six of the hijackers may be unknown”.
Basically, the gov’n version of “who dun it?” is a lie. This point speaks for itself. But there are related questions that i myself asked when i heard in the news about them. For example, how could it be possible that one of the alleged hijacker’s passport could safely – without harm or blemish – land on the streets of New York, when it had to go thru either his jacket pocket or carry-on, thru the burning plane, thru the expoding jet fuel, thru the burning building, and land a couple of blocks away to be conveniently discovered and picked up by someone? While at the same time, they reported immediately after the attacks that the black boxes – made of some of the strongest metals on the planet – were “unrecoverable” (only to later recant and say they salvaged 3 of them). Please! THAT is what’s called a conspiracy theory folks…
To recap: 1) Waleed al-Shehri (BBC, Sept 23, 2001).
2) Abdul-Aziz al-’Omari (Telegraph, 9/23/01)
3) Wa’il al-Shehri (LA Times, 9/21/01)
4) Khalid al-Mihdhar (Chicago Tribune, 10/04/2001)
5) Mohanad al-Shehri (Orlando Sentinel, and American Free Press 10/12/2001)
6) Salim al-Hazmi (The Guardian 9/21/01)
7) Sa’id al-Ghamdi (Telegraph, 9/23/01)
8) Ahmed al-Nami (same as above)
9) Mohammad Atta (Cairo Times, Vol. 5)
8) EXPOSIVES IN THE BUILDINGS: Yes, the buildings were brought down not by the plane crashes and resulting fires, which have never brought down skyscraper buildings, but by powerful explosives planted in the buildings before-hand. the evidence for this is so extensive that instead of reproducing it right here, i’d rather just save my energy and ask the reader to study this link and others:
http://www.prisonplanet.com/911.html#bombs
Let’s Roll
Video: In Plane Site (this also begins with some analysis about the pentagon attack)
Video: 9-11 Explosives
Video: 9-11 Revisited and much more.
and finally, here is the Larry Silverstein video in a PBS Documentary on Sept 2002 where he ADMITS that he had bulding 7 of the WTC Complex brought down by explosives: (remember, this is the building that was demolished in a controlled demolition after 5 pm on 9-11, had no planes hit it, and was around 350 feet away from buildings 1 and 2).
WTC7 (take a look at this damning footage and tell me this isnt a controlled demolition). As we say in Arabic, “al-i’tiraf sayyid al-adillah” or “confession is the mother of all proofs”. It takes weeks and weeks to plan and set up a controlled demolition of such an over-engineered 47-story two million square-foot building, so are we to believe that within those few hours on that same day, they were able to go in and plant the explosive devices in the exact areas needed, and “pull” (i.e. demolish) the building?
Do you want to know how much Larry Silverstein made from the insurance policy off the WTC complex (which specifically covered “acts of terrorism”)? Over 3 billion dollars. (There’s your motive folks).
NEW YORK – A jury decided Monday that the attacks on the World Trade Center were two separate events for insurance purposes, meaning leaseholder Larry Silverstein can collect up to $4.6 billion for rebuilding efforts.
The trial boosted Silverstein’s potential payout well above the $3.5 billion for which he had actually insured the trade center but short of the $7 billion he had once hoped to collect.
(from an Associated Press article by Larry Neumeister dated Dec 7, 2004). For more info:
Silverstein Guilty 1
Silverstein Guilty 2
9) W199I: the FBI was hindered by top officials in certain levels of the US Gov’n from preventing the attacks. Following are a list of some articles and news reports detailing this:
a) “US agents told to back off bin Ladens” (Ananova, Nov 7, 2001: LINK)
b) “Bush thwarted FBI probe against bin Ladens” (Hindustan Times, Nov 7, 2001: LINK)
c) BBC Newsnight (Nov 6, 2001) reported the same: FBI told to “back off” investigating bin Laden family before attacks on Sept 11th.
d) London Guardian (Nov 7, 2001) carried a report which began: “FBI and military intelligence officials in Washington say they were prevented for political reasons from carrying out full investigations into members of the Bin Laden family in the US before the terrorist attacks of September 11. US intelligence agencies have come under criticism for their wholesale failure to predict the catastrophe at the World Trade Centre. But some are complaining that their hands were tied.” (LINK)
e) “ FBI Special Agent Robert G. Wright Jr. will hold a news conference Thursday in Washington to reveal FBI negligence and obstruction of counterterrorism investigations targeting Hamas and al-Qaeda.” (Newsmax, May 29, 2002: LINK)
f) “WASHINGTON — A government watchdog and FBI counter-terrorism agent are accusing the agency of prohibiting him from conducting his probe into terror financing activities because he complained about obstruction by bureau superiors.” (Fox News, May 30, 2002: LINK)
g) “The FBI was under intense pressure yesterday to explain why its top officials had apparently stymied efforts by their own agents to investigate a long and clear pattern of evidence that Islamic extremists were plotting terror attacks on US soil.” (London Guardian, May 26, 2002). and so on…
Now who told the top FBI officials to purposefully impede the ongoing investigations being carried out by lower-rank FBI agents?? Was it Bin Laden and his group who ordered them to do so? Can we really believe after this that bin Laden (a CIA Agent) carried out these attacks without any help from higher-ups in the US Gov’n??
10) AIDING AND PROTECTING THE TERRORISTS: This is a huge subject in which much detailed research has been done. Without reproducing all the confirmed details here, i will ask the interested reader to examine these links:
a) THE BEST ENEMIES MONEY CAN BUY: From Hitler To Saddam Hussein to Osama bin Laden – Insider Connections and the Bush Family’s Partnership with Killers of Americans. (LINK).
b) Terrorists Trained at US flight schools, and FBI agents who were following them warned the US Gov’n about them, but the Gov’n did nothing on purpose. (LINK).
c) The 20th hijacker – Moussaoui – had been a suspect for years but was ignored by the intelligence agencies, and the FAA security took no action against him (LINK).
d) Members of the bin Laden family were allowed to fly out of the US in the days after 9/11, even though US airspace was strictly closed, in other words, the FBI helped the suspects escape to safety. (as reported by the Boston Globe, the Scotsman, United Press International, the National Review, and others… LINK).
e) George Bush (father and son) have stronger ties and greater connections to Bin Laden and his network than almost anyone else. (LINK)(LINK)(LINK).
f) How we trained al-Qa’ida (LINK), and how the CIA created bin Laden (LINK).
g) al-Qa’ida: made in the USA (LINK). Excerpt: “In other words, the so-called Al Qaeda, which has been promoted by the Media Cartel as the cause of all bombings and terrorism since the destruction of the World Trade Center in New York on September 11, 2001, is simply a database of CIA trained “terrorists” (or “freedom fighters,” depending on your perspective) which has become a convenient Global Boogeyman for the 21st Century.”
h) We can conclude then, that on 9/11, “bin Laden came home to roost”, as in this MSNBC article. In either case, whether bin Laden was responsible for 9/11 (in which case he was a CIA Asset so the blame comes back to the CIA, FBI, etc), or whether he was not responsible for the attacks (as he admitted himself in an interview to al-Jazeera a few days after 9/11 – quote below), the blame ultimately lies in certain criminal elements of this Neo-Con administration. As for the fake “confession tape”, this serves no evidence. Not only because it was later disclosed to be an admitted forgery, but also because the figure in the video looks only remotely like bin Laden, writes with the wrong hand, and wears a gold ring (forbidden for males in Islamic law).
Bin Laden stated in a statement issued to al-Jazeera news: “the US Government has consistently blamed me for being behind every attack. I would like to assure the world that i did not plan the recent attacks, which seems to have been planned by people for personal reasons. I have been living in the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan and following its leader’s rules. The current leader does not allow me to exercise such operations.” (So much for the “confessing terrorist” fairy tale).
Above is only some of the damning evidence to support our contention that the blame for 9/11 should go to certain criminal elements within the US Gov’n, and to deny and disprove the “official” Gov’n fairy tale conspiracy theory lies and ommissions about what they want us to believe happened on 9/11 (which only the stupid and gullible would swallow hook, line, and sinker). Again, this is only some…. we did not cover, for example, the fact that the debris of flight 93 was spread over 8 miles (meaning it had to have been shot down instead of “wrestled” to the ground according to the official fairy tale); or how the steel and other debris of the two WTC towers (which was a crime scene) was immediately shipped to China and India, which basically means destroyed evidence and obstruction of justice; or how no plane debris was found at the Pentagon (no wings, no engines, no fuselage, nothing) except a few scrap metal pieces light enough to be carried away by one person; or how the hole made was way too small to accomodate a plane of that size; or how the grass lawn in front of the Pentagon strike area was still perfectly green and unharmed, and the windows around the strike area still intact; or how the 5 stills from the footage released show no plane at all, but something much much smaller than a Boeing; or how cordite was smelled at the scene of the Pentagon (an explosive material with a distinct odor very different from burned jet fuel); or how the supposedly hijacked planes displayed maneuvers so advanced and smooth when the hijackers themselves were known to be very poor pilots, and which also defied any theory of passengers bravely struggling with the hijackers as they flew the plane (how did it fly so smoothly then?); or how the supposed cell phone calls were impossible to make at that altitude and speed; and so on…
This post will be continued in a future one, where i will discuss motives and past precedences for these attacks. for now, if you want more info, you can go and study this page.
