About the Book

The book presents a comprehensive view and analysis of the key events as presented by the national media. It is largely the content of this news and video coverage that offers the critical evidence to suggest something other than the stated sequence of occurrences had taken place on the morning of September 11, 2001. Many examples are studied that contradict the official accounts. The CBS documentary and narration of March 10th is an important one. It contains unmistakable evidence of tampering and falsification.

The scrutiny devoted to the videotape scenes was extremely valuable. The detected discrepancies in aircraft flight profiles and impact characteristics offered compelling reasons to examine them more closely as was done in this analysis. The decision to do so brought forth astonishing results. Likewise, the meticulous analysis of the shadows, temperature, climatic conditions and the absence of typical and expected urban activity in a busy metropolis in a morning rush hour, as shown in the CBS March 10, 2002 video segment revealed deliberate tampering. In view of the manipulations of crucial data as contained in the CBS videotape that has been presented to the world as important documentary evidence, the anomalies noted could not be rejected without a more thorough investigation.

Compelling evidence has been presented to show that Flight 77 did not strike the Pentagon. The analyses of other investigators had arrived at the same conclusion. The available evidence strongly suggests that Flight 77 had either crashed at the Ohio-West Virginia border as reported by Clear Channel Radio station KOA, or had landed at an undisclosed airport after the FAA stand down order was issued. Or it had simply vanished without a trace. Its wreckage was not found at the Pentagon and if wreckage was present in the Ohio-West Virginia site it has never been disclosed.

Whether hijacked airliners or remotely guided aircraft struck the towers the physical wreckage of the plane, luggage, equipment and bodies would remain as evidence of their use. No such wreckage has ever been found at any of the targeted sites. On the contrary all of the evidence as well as lack of evidence points to the fact that planes may not have been used in the strikes.

An old saying goes, "Where there is smoke there is fire." The new saying of the present sophisticated world of statecraft and intrigue is, "Where there is smoke there are mirrors." Global television has shown that the World Trade Center incident is awash in huge quantities of smoke. Maybe now is the time to look for the mirrors.
