The Unanswered Questions of 9/11James Corbett, Contributor The questions of 9/11 have only continued to pile up higher since that fateful day, and despite official platitudes we are no closer to having those questions answered today then we were when they first arose. In fact, for some of the most important 9/11 questions, the governments own documents and records that could conceivably answered them have been destroyed, meaning we may never have answers. The unanswered questions of 9/11 are too numerous to enumerate, but they include: -Why has NIST classified the data that they used to make their computer animation of the WTC7 collapse? Would knowledge of how NIST believes the building collapsed really jeopardize public safety? -Why did the DIA destroy more than 2.5 terabytes of data on their Able Danger investigation that reportedly identified four of the alleged hijackers years in advance of the attack? Why did the Pentagon buy up and burn the entire first print run of Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffers book on the program? -Why did the SEC destroy their records on the 9/11 insider trading question, presumably the most important investigation in the agencys history? -Why did the alleged mastermind of 9/11, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, confess not only to plotting 9/11 from A to Z but also confess to masterminding numerous crimes that he could not have committed? -Why was the report of US State Department official Frank Taylor supposedly proving the case for Al Qaedas role in 9/11, which NATO used to justify its invasion of Afghanistan, presented in a classified briefing? Why is that report still classified to this day? -Why did the 9/11 commission rely so heavily on the confessions extracted through torture which even the Senates Armed Services committeepoints out is specifically used to extract false confessions? -Why did the CIA destroy 92 videotapes of their illegal torture sessions after being specifically ordered by a court not to do so? Why did the courts eventually absolve the CIA of any culpability for this crime? -Why did Donald Rumsfeld announce a new war on September 10, 2001? What was the reason for the 2.3 trillion missing dollars which the Pentagon had lost up until that point, what did Rumsfelds war on bureaucracy hope to achieve, how was that war hindered when the budget analyst office in the Pentagon was destroyed the following morning, and where are the public records into this accounting scandal? -Why is there such a massive discrepancy between the 9/11 commissions official finding of the time of entry of Dick Cheney into the Presidential Emergency Operation Center on the morning of 9/11 and Transportation Secretary Norman Minetas testimony of the timing of that arrival? -Why did the US government contract with Ptech, an enterprise architecture software firm, to install its backdoor access software on some of the most sensitive databases in the US government? Why did they continue to use Ptech even after it was discovered that its sweetheart investor was a specially designated global terrorist on the Treasurys own terror list? Why did they declare that there was nothing untoward in the software mere hours after raiding Ptechs offices in 2002? And what was Ptech doing in the basement of the Pentagon on 9/11? What interoperability tests was it running on the link between FAA and NORAD systems on 9/11, and how did that interfere with the FAA and NORADs response? -And, perhaps most tellingly of all, how did four highjacked aircraft fly so wildly off course for such lengthy periods of time without being confronted by a single fighter interceptor, and why did the Pentagon admittedly and on the record lie to the American public about the timing of its response that day? These and many, many questions like them have been asked by the victims family members, the first responders, members of the US military, American congressmen and women, intelligence agents, foreign dignitaries and heads of state, and concerned members of the public across America and around the globe. And still, 11 years after the events themselves, the American president has the gall to suggest that all questions have been answered and it is time for Americans to move on. On the contrary, Mr. President. Those who are concerned with 9/11 truth and justice will continue to fight on, to answer the questions that your government cannot and will not answer, whether those answers come now, 11 years from now, or generations from now. Those who fight for 9/11 truth will not give up until these questions have been answered. Echoing the words of those brave souls in the wake of that other great American tragedy, the OKC bombing: We search for the truth. We seek justice. The courts require it. The victims cry for it. And God demands it.
