MIHOP or LIHOP? An interesting read either way....
http://www.9-11commission.gov/hearings/hearing1/witness_kleinberg.htm

This woman's testimony is compelling at the least. It also raises a very interesting question in the whole MIHOP or LIHOP debate. Is it really possible that these 19 guys just could have been this lucky?

Give it a read. Comments are welcomed.

3. The truth is not a fringe issue.
Only cowards can't handle a robust investigation. Only fringe kool aid drinkers and ignorant sheeple can buy the bushlerco fantasy 9/11 explanation.

5. I know that's not true, because I really haven't believed either....
and I'm definitely not a repukes or a right-winger. I found it an interesting read. If nothing else, it raised a point (at least one) that I hadn't considered in the past. I'm not willing to go to the extent of saying it was conspiracy, but it does seem like a stunning number of coincidences converged on that single day -- and all of them (coincidentally?) occurring on the very same day that this elaborate plan was unfolding?

My math skills are not what they ought to be. Help me out here -- what are the odds of that many "coincidences" converging?

4. I think she is saying it is the fault of 'no fault government', i.e. not
holding people accountable.

If I remember correctly, there was one person , a higher up in the pentagon, who was on his first day on the job. Also, I forget what agency was doing a drill on the very thing that happened on Sept. 11. Those 2 things have always made me wonder if the attackers have/had a man on the inside.

From the link:

Was it luck or No Fault Government

Is it luck that aberrant stock trades were not monitored? Is it luck when 15 visas are awarded based on incomplete forms? Is it luck when Airline Security screenings allow hijackers to board planes with box cutters and pepper spray? Is it luck when Emergency FAA and NORAD protocols are not followed? Is it luck when a national emergency is not reported to top government officials on a timely basis?

To me luck is something that happens once. When you have this repeated pattern of broken protocols, broken laws, broken communication, one cannot still call it luck.

If at some point we don't look to hold the individuals accountable for not doing their jobs properly then how can we ever expect for terrorists not to get lucky again?
