“The September 11th attacks were likely meant as a cover-up for financial crimes being investigated by the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI), whose offices in the Pentagon were destroyed on September 11th.”

“The attacks ... were intended to cover-up the clearing of $240 billion dollars in securities covertly created in September 1991 to fund a covert economic war against the Soviet Union”

“The 9/11 attacks also served to derail multiple Federal investigations of crimes associated with the 1991 covert operation.”

“A critical mass of brokers from the major government security brokerages in the Twin Towers had to be eliminated to create chaos in the government securities market.”

“A situation needed to be created wherein $240 billion dollars of covert securities could be electronically "cleared" without anyone asking questions – which happened when the Federal Reserve declared an emergency”

“The 9/11 attacks also served to derail multiple Federal investigations of crimes associated with the 1991 covert operation. Hundreds of billions of dollars of government securities had to be destroyed.”

“Forget for one moment everything you’ve been told about September 11, 2001.”

“The question may seem simple, but how we answer it is of vital importance. It determines how we proceed with our investigation of that day.”

“once you strip away the emotional rhetoric and the fear-inducing imagery, we’re left with a simple truth: 9/11 was a crime.”

“we’re left with a simple truth: 9/11 was a crime.”

“And as with any crime, there is one overriding imperative that detectives must follow to identify the perpetrators: Follow the money.”

“The deal was unusual in a variety of ways. Although the Port Authority carried only $1.5 billion of insurance coverage on the WTC complex… Silverstein had insisted on doubling that amount”

“Within hours of the destruction of the Twin Towers on September 11th, Silverstein was on the phone to his lawyers, trying to determine if his insurance policies could”

“Perhaps even more outrageously, in a secret deal in 2003, the Port Authority agreed to pay back 80% of their initial equity in the lease”

“In the end, Silverstein profited from the 9/11 attacks to the tune of $4.55 billion and counting.”

“But that’s the 9/11 insurance heist you saw. There was a much deeper, more complex, and well-hidden heist that was taking place behind closed doors”

“But that’s the 9/11 insurance heist you saw. There was a much deeper, more complex, and well-hidden heist”

“SilverStream had already built internet-based transactional and trading platforms for Merrill Lynch, Deutsche Bank, Banker’s Trust, Alex Brown, Morgan Stanley and other financial services firms”

“And what you should take away from that is this: it means that no other companies were doing this type of transaction. So the question in your mind should be: What then were Marsh and AIG doing”

“The concerned colleagues I just mentioned were murdered on September 11th, and the executives who expressed dismay at my concerns are alive and free today because of it.”

“The concerned colleagues I just mentioned were murdered on September 11th”

“I feel that it’s no coincidence, as the Marsh executive who urged me to drop my line of inquiry made sure that his personnel… were in the office bright and early for a global conference call”

“Meanwhile the Marsh executive who had scheduled the meeting, the same one who had asked Grove to drop the issue of the billing anomalies, was safe in his apartment, attending the meeting via telephone.”

“The source for this, the investigative journalist Michael C. Ruppert, repeated this story again on record in this video of mine”

“Erik Kirschbaum from the news agency Reuters reported in December 2001 that Convar had at that time successfully restored information from 32 computers, supporting “suspicions that some of the 911 transactions were illegal””

“Richard Wagner, a Convar employee, told Kirschbaum that “illegal transfers of more than $100 million might have been made immediately before and during the disaster.””

“I specifically asked financial journalist Max Keiser, who for years had worked on Wall Street as a stock and options trader, about the put option trades.”

“Keiser pointed out in this context that he “had spoken with many brokers in the towers of the World Trade Center around that time. I heard firsthand about the airline put trade”

“Ruppert was contacted by an employee of Deutsche Bank, who survived the WTC disaster by leaving the scene when the second aircraft had hit its target.”

“I heard firsthand about the airline put trade from brokers at Cantor Fitzgerald days before.”

“Under consideration here is the fact that Alex Brown, a subsidiary of Deutsche Bank ... traded massive put options purchases on United Airlines Company UAL ... On September 12, the chairman of the board of Deutsche Bank Alex Brown, Mayo A Shattuck III, suddenly and quietly renounced his post”

“There was a sharp rise in credit card transactions moving through some computer systems at the WTC shortly before the planes hit the twin towers. This could be a criminal enterprise – in which case, did they get advance warning?”

“The employee, afraid for his life, lost many of his friends on September 11, and he was well aware of the role which the Deutsche Bank subsidiary Alex Brown had played in insider trading.”

“Under consideration here is the fact that Alex Brown, a subsidiary of Deutsche Bank (where many of the alleged 9/11 hijackers handled their banking transactions – for example Mohammed Atta) traded massive put options purchases on United Airlines Company UAL”

“Since I have never seen that the Deutsche Bank was officially asked about this, I would like to ask you for a comment on this specific story.”

“Few people are aware of the huge Black Eagle Trust fund, let alone its critical relation to the 9/11 attacks. A brilliant summary of excellent information... compiled by meticulous researcher E.P. Heidner”

“With best wishes, Fred Burks for PEERS and the WantToKnow.info Team Former language interpreter for Presidents Bush and Clinton”

“For what may be the most powerful single piece of evidence corroborating this theory, click here to read the Reuters news service article”

“Heidner presents volumes of solid evidence to support his thesis that one of the main reasons for the attacks was to cover up the laundering of over $200 billion”

“The full document also includes 232 footnotes for verification filling 17 pages worth of text.”

“Some readers may feel upset or overwhelmed with this material, yet the fact that you are reading this and that this powerful information is awakening many”

“Others may be excited to finally see the bigger picture.”

“this powerful information is awakening many as it spreads around the Internet shows that we are making a difference”

“The September 11th attacks were likely meant as a cover-up for financial crimes being investigated by the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI), whose offices in the Pentagon were destroyed”

“The attacks … were intended to cover-up the clearing of $240 billion dollars in securities covertly created in September 1991”

“A critical mass of brokers from the major government security brokerages in the Twin Towers had to be eliminated to create chaos in the government securities market.”

“A situation needed to be created wherein $240 billion dollars of covert securities could be electronically “cleared” without anyone asking questions – which happened when the Federal Reserve declared an emergency”

“There were three major securities brokers in the World Trade Center: Cantor Fitzgerald, Eurobrokers and Garbon Inter Capital.”

“Cantor Fitzgerald was the largest securities dealer in the US [7] and arguably the primary target.”

“And in the vaults beneath the World Trade Center Towers, any certificates for bonds were destroyed.”

“These changes would allow an estimated $240 billion in covert government securities to be cleared upon maturity without the standard regulatory controls”

“Emboldened by the lack of consequences for subverting the U.S. constitution and breaking international law during the Iran-Contra scandal of the 1980s, a Bush administration group known as “the Vulcans” planned a bigger drive”

“The Vulcan’s drive to bring an end to the Cold War was fueled by a covert war chest invisible to congressional oversight.”

“This was done to the tune of a staggering $240 billion dollars in covert and allegedly illegal bonds, which appear to have been replaced with Treasury notes backed by U.S. taxpayers in the aftermath of September 11.”

“The covert securities used to accomplish the national security objective of ending the Cold War ended up in the vaults of the brokers in the World Trade Center, and were destroyed on September 11, 2001.”

“The federal Agency investigating these bonds – The Office of Naval Intelligence – was in the section of the Pentagon that was destroyed on 9/11.”

“the WTC, the Pentagon, the four airliners and their occupants would became ‘collateral’ damage in the ending of the Cold War.”

“Their deaths were required to hide the existence of the Black Eagle Trust, and the covert activities it had funded for over 50 years.”

“The destruction of these lives and buildings constituted a cover-up of continued lawlessness by a fraternity or brotherhood of businessmen and criminals often referred to as ‘the Enterprise’”

“Numerous sources have documented that at the end of WWII, the treasury of the Japanese Empire was discovered in the Philippines”

“The reasoning goes like this: if we assume that we know who the perpetrators were (i.e. the popular version of “al Qaeda”) and those who were involved in the trades did not appear to be connected to those assumed perpetrators, then insider trading did not occur. That’s basically what the 9/11 Commission told us.”

“would constitute another unbelievable scenario in the already highly improbable sequence of events represented by the official story of 9/11.”

“However, the possibility that so many leading financial experts were so completely wrong is doubtful at best and, if true, would constitute another unbelievable scenario”

“In 2006 and 2010, financial experts at a number of universities have established new evidence, through statistical analyses, that informed trades did occur”

“German central bank president, Ernst Welteke, said his bank conducted a study that strongly indicated “terrorism insider trading” associated with 9/11. He stated that his researchers had found “almost irrefutable proof of insider trading.””

“Conversely, German central bank president, Ernst Welteke, said his bank conducted a study that strongly indicated “terrorism insider trading”… Welteke suggested that the insider trading occurred not only in shares of companies affected by the attacks, such as airlines and insurance companies, but also in gold and oil.”

“An ABC News Consultant, Jonathan Winer, said, “it’s absolutely unprecedented to see cases of insider trading covering the entire world from Japan to the US to North America to Europe.””

“Michael Ruppert has since written about DBAB, noting that the company had previously been a financier of The Carlyle Group and also of Brown Brothers Harriman, both of which are companies closely related to the Bush family.”

“noting that the company had previously been a financier of The Carlyle Group and also of Brown Brothers Harriman, both of which are companies closely related to the Bush family.”

“Ruppert also noted that Alex. Brown… was managed by A.B. (Buzzy) Krongard, who left the firm in 1998 to join the CIA as counsel to director George Tenet.”

“The four highest-volume suspect stocks — UAL, Marsh, AMR and Citigroup — were closely linked to the attacks of 9/11. The two airline companies each had two planes hijacked and destroyed. Marsh was located in the exact 8 floors out of 110 in the north tower of the WTC where Flight 11 impacted”

“The U.S. Subprime and global financial crises of 2008 was the direct result of a covert monetary policy implemented by the U .S . financial institutional caretakers of the World War II Black Eagle Gold Fund.”

“Two independent ‘insiders’ to the fund have provided with testimony and documentation contending that George H.W. Bush and Alan Greenspan funded a covert operation in 1991 in the range of $240 billion dollars.”

“One of those insiders was the wife of a minor covert fund manager (CIA operative Russell Hermann, of the Durham Trust) and the other was the long-term program manager of the covert fund (General Earle Cocke).”

“this analysis provides evidence that a similar gambit is being made for the takeover of key U.S. industries.”

“Over time, these covert funds have been found to be involved with a number of major international banking scandals such as the BCCI, Nugan Hand, Castle Bank, and the International Bank of Washington scandals.”

“securities from the $240 Billion covert war were ‘settled’ in the aftermath of Septemberllth, 2001 tragedy. This meant that $240 billion jumped from the off-balance sheet accounts to the balance sheets of their respective holding banks, and had a major impact on the money supply.”

“In addition to the ‘coincidence’ that virtually all of the troubled mortgages which are at the source of the 2008 economic crisis seem to come from a timeframe and monetary growth spurt linked to the ‘9/11 bond dump’”

“an economic crisis that has stripped corporations and investment funds (read as retirement and saving plans) of trillions of dollars, and brought global economic growth to a standstill.”

“Subsequent investigation into the funding and the history of that period suggests they used the gold to fund a covert economic war that caused the collapse of the Soviet Union.”

“The corroborating evidence for these claims is extensive, and moreover suggests that securities from the $240 Billion covert war were ‘settled’ in the aftermath of Septemberllth, 2001 tragedy.”

“The rationale for the financial crisis presented to the public by a news culture that all too often publishes (uncritically) government sponsored sound bites, suggested that the crisis was attributable to a set of conditions no one could be held accountable for because ‘everyone’ was responsible.”

“The timing and additional attack method are a testament to the technical sophistication and dedication of its developers, who reportedly developed Stuxnet under a covert operation sponsored by the US and Israeli governments.”

“The 600K worth of code found in Stuxnet 0.5 is highly modular, just as it was in the 500K Stuxnet 1.0. The encryption algorithms, string objects, and logging functions in the earlier version are almost identical to those of Flame.”

““The attacker had to have extremely good knowledge of how Natanz operated in order to build this code,” O’Murchu said of version 0.5.”

“This means that Stuxnet attackers’ detailed familiarity with Iran’s nuclear facilities dates back much earlier than previously known. It suggests espionage malware such as Flame, Duqu, or a still-unknown title had burrowed into Iranian systems in the months or years prior to the beginning of the development work.”

“But given changes that were introduced in subsequent versions, it’s reasonable to speculate that Stuxnet developers were unhappy with the infection rate of the earlier version and sought new ways to make their malware more aggressive.”

“As a result, 1.x versions ended up leaving a wide swath of collateral damage when they infected an estimated 100,000 computers, the vast majority of which had nothing to do with Iran’s uranium-enrichment program.”

“For all the cost and burden of creating and maintaining such a database, those efforts will inevitably be outpaced by rapid iterations and workarounds by people breaking existing firearms laws.”

“Once implemented, this infrastructure will be difficult to rein in, causing unintended consequences.”

“The database meant for firearm parts can easily expand to copyright or political speech.”

“Once printer companies have the legal cover to build out anti-competitive and privacy-invasive tools, they will likely be rolled out globally.”

“After all, it is not cost-effective to maintain two forks of software, two inventories of printers, and two distribution channels.”

“Once California has created the infrastructure to censor prints, what else will it be used for?”

“these print-blocking efforts are not only doomed to fail, but will render all 3D printer users vulnerable to surveillance”

“A lack of nearby options is one reason fewer high-school graduates are going straight to college, Hillman told me.”

“At the high school that I graduated from, in northeastern Pennsylvania, about 55 percent of graduates now go on to college.”

“When enrollment falls, campuses shut down. And when campuses disappear, enrollment falls further, because the local students most likely to attend those institutions lose a nearby option. A vicious cycle emerges, and the worry is that the demographic cliff combined with campus closures will drive the number of college-going students only further downward.”

“the United States witnessed a remarkable transformation in its education system, largely driven by the vision and efforts of one of the most influential industrialists of the time, John D. Rockefeller. The creation of the modern school system as we know it today is inextricably linked to Rockefeller’s philanthropic endeavors”

“The creation of the modern school system as we know it today is inextricably linked to Rockefeller’s philanthropic endeavors”

“If you’re short on time, here’s a quick answer to your question: John D. Rockefeller created the school system as we know it today”

“Rockefeller’s philanthropic endeavors and his belief in the power of education to shape society”

“John D. Rockefeller, the iconic industrialist and philanthropist, had a profound impact on the American education system.”

“He recognized that access to quality education was a key driver of social mobility and economic opportunity.”

“This standardization would ensure that students across the country received a consistent and high-quality education, regardless of their location or socioeconomic background.”

“his efforts undoubtedly played a pivotal role in shaping the modern American education system.”

“Today, the legacy of the General Education Board’s pioneering work can be seen in the vast network of educational institutions, teacher training programs, and curriculum standards that form the backbone of the American education system.”

“paving the way for generations of students to receive quality education and unlock their full potential.”

“John D. Rockefeller’s visionary commitment to education has left an indelible mark”

“This groundbreaking initiative would go on to shape the modern American education system as we know it today.”

“According to a Britannica article , the GEB’s efforts led to the establishment of numerous vocational schools and teacher training programs across the country.”

“According to a EdWeek article , the GEB’s efforts played a significant role in shaping the modern educational system’s focus on standardized testing and accountability measures.”

“He founded entire academic departments, funded large-scale studies experimenting with vocational training methods, and used his philanthropy network to steer other industrialists‘ donations, impacting millions of students.”

“Rockefeller‘s role in these stark changes is undeniable after examining primary sources like Hampton budget records.”

“In our dreams, people yield themselves with perfect docility to our molding hands.”

“Data shows attendance increased 400% during this period as childhood‘s landscape dramatically shifted toward conformity-oriented factory-model schools.”

“Nearly every aspect of today‘s conventional school system reflects Rockefeller‘s corporate philosophy designed to systemically shape America‘s next generation of workers and consumers”

“Standardized testing uses tactics pioneered by Rockefeller funds to rank willingness to follow instructions – not creativity.”

“Compulsion remains forcefully embedded. Humanities decay as vocational programs thrive.”

“Making school compulsory meant Rockefeller and his fellow industrialists could reach more children with their philosophy.”

“Standardized testing uses tactics pioneered by Rockefeller funds to rank willingness to follow instructions – not creativity.”

“Educators like John Taylor Gatto describe Rockefeller‘s compulsory schooling crusade as a naked "power grab" over communities.”

“The billionaires of 2022 like Bill Gates pursue similar tactics – using philanthropic giving to fund corporate-aligned education reform initiatives as Rockefeller once did.”

“I have been most intimately connected with the work of the General Education Board in the South for the past ten years and I wish to bear testimony that no organization, no individual, has done as much for the building up of our higher education, of our secondary school system; for the improvement of rural education, for the wonderful achievement of improved methods of agriculture in the South as has this organization and its representatives.”
