(11,841 posts)American Airlines had released a string of bad earnings prior to 9/11 and their price had fallen over 20% in the months leading up to 9/11. Your "unprecedented" number of put options were actually not much higher than normal, especially for a company looking at a rough year. Untied had also been having its troubles, and airline stocks tend to follow each other. I imagine there were also put options sold on Delta too.
Your war plans already signed is also full of holes. Action against AQ had been planned for months prior to9/11, but no firm place of action was set. If we were "ready to go" then why did it take over a month to start the air war and even longer to get troops to the area? We should have been on point within 72 hours.
War games off of pakistan? AND? Pacific war games happen regularly with the supposed allies of the region. So if it was all set up, these forces shouldve been able to respond immediately after 9/11. But they werent ready. because it was a training exercise.
Pentagon officials canceled their trips, huh? What officials were they? Were were they traveling to? From? Did you know the DoD issued a worldwide travel alert on 9/7 for military personnel? Did you know they also warned of threats to the US? Did you know that more Pentagon trips are cancelled or rescheduled than actually occur? No, because you've never worked for them.
NORAD exercises? Sure, they're ongoing constantly throughout the year, often several at the same time. When notified of the FIRST hijacking, within ONE minute all exercises were called off. And actually the fact that an exercise was going on helped the response on 9/11 because all the top people were on station and on duty.
Most of the stuff that Don Jacobs has put in his books is to make Don Jacobs money, not because its true. Prison Planet parrots everything he writes and adds in their own "how could this BE?" at every chance.
And we all know how the "bin Laden on dialysis" story ended up. There was no dialysis equipment ever found at his home and no evidence he needed it at the time of his death.
But enjoy yourself with all that. I'm sure youve got plenty of evidence that a jet didnt hit the Pentagon too. And that #7 was dropped on purpose. Next.
