            The Seekers; The birth and life of the 
            '9-11 Truth movement' 
            
            "Essentially, it's all about physics 
            and common sense. Cut steel, and buildings fall. Crash a plane, and 
            the Earth gets scarred. Fire a missile; see a hole. What's up must 
            come down, cause makes effect, and for the truth to set you free, it 
            must be freed itself. 
Its name notwithstanding, the 9-11 Truth movement 
tells a story—and is a story—about what happens when the government lies. Again, 
it's simple physics: For every action, there's a reaction equal and opposite. 
Everyone has a September 11 tale about how we 
watched the events in "disbelief." But some people really didn't believe, and in 
the immediate aftermath of the attacks their doubts took form on the Internet on 
sites like
serendipity.li,
plaguepuppy.net, and

February 22, 2006 - The Penta-Lawn 2000! is featured in a Free Market 
News article. 
9/11 HOAX? 
"Yet 
another angle is being presented on how the September 11, 2001 Pentagon crash of 
American Airlines Flight 77 was a hoax. The website known as the "the web fairy" 
begins with a sales-pitch: "Introducing the amazing new Penta-Lawn 2000! The 
most The most resilient lawn ever! lawn ever! ... It's fire proof! ... It's skid 
proof! ... It even repels plane debris!"  
It then lists a long string of quotes from American mainstream media from 
reportage that day, and notes that nearly all of them describe the crash as "a 
landing on the ground, a skidding and an impact" with the Pentagon wall ... or 
words to that effect. It then shows a series of before-and-after photos of the 
lawn surrounding the Pentagon, especially near the alleged crash-site. "Just 
think what this would do to your lawn after an explosion like this," the pitch 
continues. "Plane debris, skid marks, fire burns, jet fuel, luggage, body parts, 
yuck! You would have to shell out thousands of dollars to clean up this mess! 
But wait, this is not your ordinary lawn!"  
It then shows a picture of the turf surrounding the Pentagon, taken the same day 
of the alleged crash (while they were putting out the fire, before they covered 
the whole place with sand) and compares it to similar shots following plane 
crashes including the one in Vladivostock. A picture is worth a thousand words 
in this case.

March 1, 2006 - Judicial Watch Files Lawsuit Against Defense Department for 
Withholding Video of 9/11 Attack on Pentagon
            
            
            "Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and 
            prosecutes government corruption, announced today that it filed a 
            lawsuit on February 22, 2006 against the Department of Defense to 
            force the release of a video that allegedly shows United Flight 77 
            striking the Pentagon on September 11, 2001.  Judicial Watch seeks 
            the information in part to help put to rest conspiracy theories that 
            a government drone or missile hit the Pentagon rather than the 
            hijacked United airplane.  
Judicial Watch 
originally filed a Freedom of Information Act request on December 15, 2004, 
seeking all records pertaining to camera recordings from the Sheraton National 
Hotel, the Nexcomm/Citgo gas station, Pentagon security cameras and the Virginia 
Department of Transportation.  The Department of Defense admitted in a January 
26, 2005 letter that it possessed a videotape responsive to Judicial Watch’s 
request.  However, the Pentagon advised that the video is exempt from release 
because it is, “part of an ongoing investigation involving Zacarias Moussaoui.” 
Judicial Watch 
argues in its lawsuit that “there is no legal basis” for the DOD’s refusal to 
release the videotape.  First, while the Freedom of Information Act does allow 
an exemption for ongoing law enforcement investigations, the Defense Department 
does not have law enforcement authority over Moussaoui.  That 
belongs to the Department of Justice or the FBI.  Second, the investigation of 
Moussaoui is complete.  He 
pleaded guilty in April 2005 
to conspiring with al-Qaida to fly planes into U.S. buildings.  
Jury selection in Moussaoui’s death penalty trial is nearly finished, and 
opening arguments are scheduled for March 6. 
“There is no 
legal or rational basis for the Department of Defense to withhold this video,” 
said JW President Tom Fitton.  “There may be nothing of importance on this tape, 
but our experience has been that whenever the government takes extraordinary 
measures to keep the lid on documents, it is worth investigating.” 
 
A
copy of Judicial Watch’s lawsuit against the Defense Department and 
the 
original FOIA request is available for review on Judicial Watch’s 
Internet site, www.judicialwatch.org." -

March 19, 2006 - 'Scholars for 9/11 Truth' student member and bioengineering 
student Michael Zebuhr dies from being shot twice in the head after his group of 
four people were mugged by two young individuals the previous night in 
Minneapolis even though no one in his group put up any resistance to the 
muggers.  
  
Police: Man Shot In Head During Uptown Robbery 
"A 25-year-old man is in critical condition at the 
Hennepin County Medical Center after a Saturday night shooting in Uptown. 
The man was walking with his mother, sister and her friend after they finished 
dinner in a restaurant at Hennepin Avenue and Lake Street. 
According to police, two men approached the group about 10 p.m. at 31st Street 
and Girard Avenue South. The suspects allegedly stole the mother's purse. Then, 
even though the victims didn't put up a fight, the suspects allegedly fired two 
shots, hitting the man in the head. 
Kris Arenson, an inspector from the Minneapolis Police Department said, "Usually 
when the purse is given up, or even if the purse isn't given up, we haven't had 
any (people) that have been shot." 
Police said the suspects immediately fled the scene, jumped into a white car and 
headed south on Girard Avenue. 
Police gave vague descriptions of the suspects, only saying they are men between 
17 years old and 22 years old and were both wearing dark clothing." -

Man Shot In Uptown Dies 
"A man shot in the head in the Uptown area of 
Minneapolis on Saturday night died late Sunday night at Hennepin County Medical 
Center. 
Michael Zebuhr, 25, was a Ph.D. student at Clemson University in South Carolina. 
He was enrolled in the bioengineering program. He dreamed of working at NASA 
someday. 
He was from Buckhannon, W.Va. and was a 2005 graduate of Davis and Elkins 
College, a private Presbyterian School in Elkins, W.Va. Officials there said he 
received B.S. degrees there in chemistry and math. They said he was a student 
leader as well as a member of the school's ski team. 
Friends and family said Zebuhr also loved mountain biking, math and science. 
Police said Zebuhr was walking to a parked car with family members, when robbers 
approached them and demanded his mother's purse. She gave it to the gunmen 
without any resistance. One of the men then shot Zebuhr. 
Lt. Lee Edwards of the Minneapolis Police Department said, "Within a half hour 
of the incident, we had already had six homicide investigators or six officers 
with homicide experience already working this thing." 
Police are hoping for a break in the case. Several security cameras were pointed 
in the direction where the shooting happened and police are now reviewing those 
tapes. 
Anyone with more information is asked to call Minneapolis Police at 
612-692-8477." -

"Minneapolis Police are reviewing videotape from 
security cameras after a shooting in the Uptown neighborhood over the weekend. 
Michael Zebuhr, 25, was shot in the head in the 3100 block of Girard Avenue 
around 10 p.m. Saturday. 
Police said on Saturday night, Zebuhr was walking to a parked car with family 
members, when robbers approached them and demanded his mother's purse. She gave 
it to the gunmen without any resistance. 
One gunman shot Zebuhr twice in the head. Police said the shooting appeared to 
be cold-blooded and unprovoked. 
Uptown's usual upbeat atmosphere remains on edge with no suspects in the case. 
She said that although the shooting is a tragedy, it was very unusual and 
similar crimes rarely happen in that area. 
Devens and other neighbors said the rising rate in burglaries and robberies in 
the area has given them concern. 
According to officials, burglary is up 14 percent and robbery is up 43 percent 
compared to one year ago." -

March 
20, 2006 - Senior FBI officials were warned about 70 times of 9/11 plot. 
  
Agent: FBI warned 70 times of 
9-11 plot; Operative who arrested Zacarias Moussaoui says he made superiors 
aware of hijack plan 
"An FBI agent testifying today 
at the death penalty trial of Zacarias Moussaoui says he warned senior officials 
about 70 times of fears that the confessed al-Qaida plotter planned to hijack an 
airliner. 
Harry Samit, the agent who arrested Moussaoui, said he accused his superiors of 
"criminal negligence" and "careerism" when questioned during a U.S. government 
inquiry on Moussaoui's role in the 9-11 plot, according to Agence France-Presse.
 
The agent's testimony came as the death penalty trial resumed one week after 
Judge Leonie Brinkema threatened to throw out the prosecution's case over 
witness tampering. Friday, Brinkema agreed to continue if prosecution lawyers 
use only uncontaminated witnesses. 
The defense insists the government had known much more about the 9-11 plot than 
Moussaoui but failed to take action to stop it. 
In a memo presented by the defense during testimony, Samit warned that Moussaoui 
was an Islamic fundamentalist who believed in martyrdom, was learning how to fly 
a 747 jet and had a portable GPS navigation system, AFP reported. He also, the 
agent pointed out, was armed with small knives and learning martial arts. 
Samit was questioned today about the memo, which he sent to FBI headquarters in 
Washington on Aug. 18, 2001, less than a month before the 9-11 attacks. 
The agent said that when Moussaoui was arrested, he seemed to be in a hurry to 
finish his 747 flight training on a simulator in Minnesota." -

2006 - Transportation Secretary Norman Mineta unexpectedly announces he will 
resign just one day after Prof. Jim Fetzer from Scholars for 9/11 Truth was on 
FOX's Hannity & Colmes show and talked about Mineta's 9/11 Commission testimony 
of what Prof. Fetzer suggests is proof of Vice President Cheney issuing a stand 
down order. 
  
Transportation Chief Norman Mineta Resigns 
"Transportation Secretary Norman Mineta, who 
helped rebuild confidence in U.S. airports and flying after the Sept. 11 
attacks, said Friday he's leaving the Bush administration. 
"It is time for me to move on to other challenges," Mineta said in a letter to 
President Bush. 
White House press secretary Tony Snow announced the July 7 resignation. Asked 
why Mineta, 74, decided to leave, Snow said: "Because he wanted to." 
"He was not being pushed out," Snow said. "As a matter of fact, the president 
and the vice president and others were happy with him. He put in five and half 
years that's enough time." -

August 2, 2006 - Some of the 9/11 commission concluded that the Pentagon's 
initial story of how it reacted to 9/11 may have been part of a deliberate 
effort to mislead the commission and the public and debated referring the matter 
to the Justice Department for a criminal investigation. 
  
9/11 Panel Suspected Deception by Pentagon; 
Allegations Brought to Inspectors General 
"Some staff members and commissioners of the Sept. 
11 panel concluded that the Pentagon's initial story of how it reacted to the 
2001 terrorist attacks may have been part of a deliberate effort to mislead the 
commission and the public rather than a reflection of the fog of events on that 
day, according to sources involved in the debate. 
Suspicion of wrongdoing ran so deep that the 10-member commission, in a secret 
meeting at the end of its tenure in summer 2004, debated referring the matter to 
the Justice Department for criminal investigation, according to several 
commission sources. Staff members and some commissioners thought that e-mails 
and other evidence provided enough probable cause to believe that military and 
aviation officials violated the law by making false statements to Congress and 
to the commission, hoping to hide the bungled response to the hijackings, these 
sources said. 
In the end, the panel agreed to a compromise, 
turning over the allegations to the inspectors general for the Defense and 
Transportation departments, who can make criminal referrals if they believe they 
are warranted, officials said. 
"We to this day don't know why NORAD [the North American Aerospace Command] told 
us what they told us," said Thomas H. Kean, the former New Jersey Republican 
governor who led the commission. "It was just so far from the truth. . . . It's 
one of those loose ends that never got tied." 
Although the commission's landmark report made it clear that the Defense 
Department's early versions of events on the day of the attacks were inaccurate, 
the revelation that it considered criminal referrals reveals how skeptically 
those reports were viewed by the panel and provides a glimpse of the tension 
between it and the Bush administration. 
For more than two years after the attacks, officials with NORAD and the FAA 
provided inaccurate information about the response to the hijackings in 
testimony and media appearances. Authorities suggested that U.S. air defenses 
had reacted quickly, that jets had been scrambled in response to the last two 
hijackings and that fighters were prepared to shoot down United Airlines Flight 
93 if it threatened Washington. 
In fact, the commission reported a year later, audiotapes from NORAD's Northeast 
headquarters and other evidence showed clearly that the military never had any 
of the hijacked airliners in its sights and at one point chased a phantom 
aircraft -- American Airlines Flight 11 -- long after it had crashed into the 
World Trade Center. 
Maj. Gen. Larry Arnold and Col. Alan Scott told the commission that NORAD had 
begun tracking United 93 at 9:16 a.m., but the commission determined that the 
airliner was not hijacked until 12 minutes later. The military was not aware of 
the flight until after it had crashed in Pennsylvania. 
These and other discrepancies did not become clear until the commission, forced 
to use subpoenas, obtained audiotapes from the FAA and NORAD, officials said. 
The agencies' reluctance to release the tapes -- along with e-mails, erroneous 
public statements and other evidence -- led some of the panel's staff members 
and commissioners to believe that authorities sought to mislead the commission 
and the public about what happened on Sept. 11. 
"I was shocked at how different the truth was from the way it was described," 
John Farmer, a former New Jersey attorney general who led the staff inquiry into 
events on Sept. 11, said in a recent interview. "The tapes told a radically 
different story from what had been told to us and the public for two years. . . 
. This is not spin. This is not true." 
John F. Lehman, a Republican commission member and former Navy secretary, said 
in a recent interview that he believed the panel may have been lied to but that 
he did not believe the evidence was sufficient to support a criminal referral."

August 6, 2006 - Killtown's blogpost alleging that Val McClatchey's 
infamous red barn smoke plume photo of the alleged crash of Flight 93 is either 
a smoke plume from a different explosion originating much closer to her house, or 
that the smoke plume was photoshopped on there makes headline news at Pittsburgh 
Post-Gazette. 
  
Conspiracy theorists blog that Flight 93 photo 
is fake 
"Taken the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, seconds after United Airlines Flight 93 
plunged into a nearby field, the eerie photo was, and still is, according to the 
FBI, the closest thing it's got to an image of the crash itself. 
Val McClatchey snapped the single picture with her new digital camera. The wife 
and mother had been sitting on the edge of her sofa, clutching her second cup of 
coffee and watching the smoking towers of the World Trade Center on TV, when she 
heard the sudden surge of a plane engine, followed by a violent, house-shaking 
boom. Mrs. McClatchey grabbed the camera and ran onto the front porch of her 
house along Indian Lake. 
"I didn't even aim. I was just like, 'Oh, my God,' " she said. She dropped the 
camera, jolting the battery loose, then tried in vain to call her husband, son 
and daughter. She had no idea what she'd captured until the state police put a 
call out to people in the area, asking for photos, debris and other evidence. 
She took a printout of her photo to the police, she said, and, within an hour, 
FBI agents were at her house. 
She copyrighted her photo and gave it a title, "End of Serenity." This would 
later prove an apt description of what was in store for Mrs. McClatchey, 50. She 
would find herself the target of 9/11 conspiracy theorists and involved in a 
copyright lawsuit against The Associated Press. 
During the next few years, the photo would appear in magazines and newspapers, 
from Newsweek to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, with Mrs. McClatchey's permission. 
It became part of a fund-raising brochure for the Flight 93 Memorial Fund. 
Copies are available upon request, with proceeds going to the charity Heroic 
Choices, formerly the Todd Beamer Foundation. 
But Mrs. McClatchey's fame has recently taken a sour turn. The real estate agent 
has recently become a target of bloggers calling themselves "9-11 researchers," 
who are seeking to prove that the U.S. government was complicit in the attacks 
that brought down the Twin Towers, pierced the Pentagon and crashed United 
Airlines Flight 93. "The End of Serenity" has turned out to be their smoking 
gun. 
The smoke plume doesn't line up right, they say. It is too large in the frame. 
The smoke is characteristic of an ordnance blast, not a jet fuel fire, further 
evidence that the government shot down Flight 93. They analyze wind direction, 
debris patterns and camera trajectories, all in the service of the theory that 
the crash was faked. 
On a simple Google search, Mrs. McClatchey's name now pops up in the same 
sentence as "total fraud." 
"Val McClatchey has made it unmistakably clear to us that she intends to milk 
her 9-11 claim to fame for all it's worth, truth be damned," writes Lisa Guliani, 
of WingTV (World Independent News Group), who traveled to Stoystown to interview 
Mrs. McClatchey. 
"If the smoke plume was photo-shopped on there, then that could mean either that 
the photo was simply a fraud by Val, or it was a fraud by her and the FBI and/or 
other government agents since she did mention that the FBI did inspect the 
memory card from her camera," writes a blogger identified as Killtown. 
Mrs. McClatchey was taken aback by the personal criticism by those who, she 
said, "hide behind their aliases." -

September 15, 2006 - The U.S. government releases a CITGO gas station 
security video that barely shows the Pentagon explosion and does not show a 
plane. 
  
CITGO Gas Station Cameras Near Pentagon 
Evidently Did Not Capture Attack 
"Judicial Watch, the public interest group that 
investigates and prosecutes government corruption, today released a videotape 
from the FBI that was taken from a CITGO gas station near the Pentagon. Many 
believed the video would show American Airlines Flight 77 striking the Pentagon 
on September 11, 2001. The videotape, which depicts views from the gas station's 
six security cameras, shows that the CITGO cameras did not seem to capture the 
actual attack. The tape was partially obscured by the FBI to protect the privacy 
of individuals captured on video in the CITGO convenience store. The FBI 
released the videotape as the result of a Judicial Watch Freedom of Information 
Act request and related lawsuit.  
Judicial Watch originally filed a Freedom of Information Act request on December 
15, 2004 seeking all records pertaining to September 11, 2001 camera recordings 
of the Pentagon attack from the Nexcomm/CITGO gas station, Pentagon security 
cameras and the Virginia Department of Transportation. Judicial Watch filed a 
lawsuit against the FBI on June 22, 2006. (In May 2006, The Department of 
Defense released videos depicting the attack in response to another Judicial 
Watch lawsuit.) 
The FBI has agreed to release to Judicial Watch a videotape obtained from the 
Doubletree Hotel near the Pentagon by November 9, 2006. 
"With the release of this videotape, we are one step closer to completing the 
public record on the September 11 terrorist attacks," said Judicial Watch 
President Tom Fitton. "The CITGO tape evidently does not show the Pentagon 
attack, which the American people can now see for themselves. This videotape was 
the subject of intense public debate. Now that it has been released to the 
public, there is no reason for further speculation about what it does or does 
not show." -

October 1, 2006 - A high quality video with no soundtrack and time stamped 
January 8, 2000 emerges showing alleged 9/11 suicide pilots Mohammed Atta 
(Flight 11) and Ziad Jarrah (Flight 93) which was obtain by UK's The Sunday 
Times through a "previously tested channel". 
  
The laughing 9/11 bombers; Exclusive film of 
suicide pilots at Bin Laden’s HQ 
"FILM of the ringleader of the September 11 
hijackers reading his “martyrdom” will inside Afghanistan at Osama Bin Laden’s 
headquarters has emerged five years after the Al-Qaeda outrage. 
It is the first time that a videotape has appeared of Mohammed Atta — who flew 
an American Airlines plane into the north tower of the World Trade Center — at a 
training camp in Afghanistan. It fills in a significant gap in the timing of the 
build-up to the attacks on the United States. 
Dates on the tape show Atta was filmed on January 18, 2000, together with Ziad 
Jarrah, the pilot of United Airlines flight 93, which crashed in Pennsylvania 
after the passengers apparently stormed the flight deck. 
The Sunday Times has obtained a copy of the video through a previously tested 
channel. The tape has no soundtrack and a US source said lip readers had tried 
without success to decipher what was being said. 
Despite the deadly tasks the men had been assigned, they appear in high spirits, 
laughing and smiling in front of the camera. Only when Atta, with an AK-47 
propped on a wall beside him, reads a document marked in Arabic “the will”, does 
he become solemn. Both are well groomed, without the haggard appearance of the 
identity mugshots issued after September 11. 
The high quality, unedited film shows Bin Laden addressing his followers at the 
mud-walled complex near Kandahar. One of the main figures in the September 11 
plot, Ramzi Binalshibh, is identifiable in the crowd, as is a bodyguard whose 
task was to kill Bin Laden with two bullets to the head if he faced capture. 
Dating on the tape indicates that the Al-Qaeda leader was filmed on January 8, 
2000, 10 days before Atta and Jarrah recorded their wills. 
American and German investigators have struggled to find evidence of Atta’s 
whereabouts in January 2000 after he disappeared from Hamburg. The hour-long 
tape places him in Afghanistan at a decisive moment in the development of the 
conspiracy when he was given operational command. Months later both he and 
Jarrah enrolled at flying schools in America. 
Investigators have also puzzled over the fact that unlike the rest of the 
hijackers — most of whom were young Saudi fundamentalists — Atta and Jarrah were 
well educated and appeared to fit into western society while studying in 
Germany. The video indicates how easily they slipped from a western identity to 
a fundamentalist one. It also shows up the subterfuge they maintained in Germany 
and America that they did not know each other, all part of evading detection." -

October 18, 2006 - A U.S. appeals court hands WTC leaseholder Larry 
Silverstein a mixed verdict in his ongoing insurance payment battle by affirming 
a previous jury decisions which forced some insurers to treat the 9/11 attacks 
as two separate events, but allowed others to treat it as a single event due to 
the wording of their policies which leaves Silverstein with less than $5 billion 
to redevelop the complex instead of the $7 billion he wanted. 
  
Developer gets mixed ruling on WTC case; Court 
affirms some, but not all, jury decisions viewing 9/11 as 2 'events.' 
"A U.S. appeals court on Wednesday handed World 
Trade Center leaseholder Larry Silverstein a mixed verdict in his ongoing battle 
to collect billions of dollars in claims from the complex's insurers. 
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit affirmed previous jury decisions 
which forced some insurers to treat the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks as two separate 
events, but allowed others to treat it as a single event due to the wording of 
their policies. 
The ruling means that Silverstein could collect 
some $1.1 billion in additional damages from insurers including Allianz, Zurich 
American Insurance and Travelers Indemnity Co. 
But others, including American International Group Inc.'s (Charts) Lexington 
unit, Swiss Re, and Lloyd's of London, will pay on the single-event basis. 
Wednesday's decision leaves Silverstein with less than $5 billion to redevelop 
the complex, which anchored Manhattan's financial district, instead of the $7 
billion he wanted. 
But both sides declared victory in the court's ruling. 
Silverstein, who leased the World Trade Center 
just two months before it was destroyed, faulted the insurers for the protracted 
battle. State and city officials say the insurers have repeatedly delayed the 
rebuilding of the complex. 
Stuart Cotton, an attorney who represented AIG's Lexington unit, one of the 
winning insurers, said most of those carriers had already paid out the nearly 
$2.5 billion they owed to Silverstein. 
The other insurers, who already owe $1 billion, now must pay another $1.1 
billion, depending on whether Silverstein can prove his damages were that high, 
said Cotton, a partner in Mound, Cotton, Wollan & Greengrass in New York City. 
Silverstein's insurance battles are not over. Two 
firms, Allianz Insurance Company and Gulf Insurance Company still threaten to 
withheld payments due to Silverstein's new accord with the land-owning Port 
Authority of New York and New Jersey, a Silverstein spokesman said. 
Most of the insurers who raised this issue several months ago have backed down."

"Three more 9/11 victims were identified from

another man whose family didn't want his name made public. 
Some 200 pieces of bone and other remains have been found since the accidental 
discovery last month by workers doing routine construction work along the 
western edge of the 16-acre site. 
Forensic experts say the new discoveries of remains at Ground Zero in the past

December 2, 2006 - The FBI releases a Doubletree Hotel security 
video (forced by a FOI lawsuit by Flight77.info) that shows an explosion coming up from the Pentagon, but it does not show 
any plane, or even the Pentagon which is blocked out by an overpass. 
  
Hotel security video shows 9/11 Pentagon blast, 
but no plane 
"A hotel security camera video released by the U.S. government showed the 
explosion that followed the crash of American Airlines Flight 77 into the 
Pentagon on September 11, 2001, but the low-quality recording did not capture an 
image of the 757 jetliner. 
The video, recorded by a security camera at the Doubletree Hotel in Arlington, 
was released to public interest group Judicial Watch and others who filed a 
lawsuit seeking the tape and other videos from that day. 
CNN filed a Freedom of Information request for the video in February 2002, after 
the manager of the hotel disclosed its existence to CNN Senior Pentagon 
Correspondent Jamie McIntyre and said it had been confiscated by the FBI. CNN's 
FOI request was denied because at the time the tape was considered evidence in 
the investigation of Zacarias Moussaoui, who has since been convicted. 
There was speculation that this video might show the American Airlines 757 
jetliner before it crashed, but a close examination by CNN only revealed the 
subsequent explosion and no image of the jet. The only known record of the plane 
is on images from the Pentagon security camera, first broadcast by CNN in March 
of 2002, and officially released in their entirety May of this year." -

Pentagon on Sept. 11, 2001. 
The video does not show the plane in flight. 
The video was released in response to a freedom of information lawsuit filed by 
Scott Bingham, seeking the video, which the FBI seized from the Double Tree 
Hotel in Arlington after the 9/11 attacks. 
The video is grainy and the focus is soft, but a rapidly-growing tower of smoke 
is visible in the distance on the upper edge of the frame as the plane crashes 
into the building.KWTX

December 5, 2006 - Three days after the Doubletree Hotel video is released 
that allegedly shows the aftermath of Flight 77 crashing into the Pentagon, the daughter of 
reported Flight 77 pilot Charles 
Burlingame is killed in a "suspicious" fire in her apartment she only 
had lived in for a month.  Wendy Burlingame's boyfriend, 
an Army veteran and her former fiancé, said they both 
tried to extinguish the fire, but when they tried to flee out the door, he 
accidentally shut and locked the front door before she got out and couldn't get back in to get her and there has never been a fire related 
incident in the history of the apartment complex. 
  
Fire claims life of daughter of airline pilot 
killed on 9/11 
"Authorities have identified a woman who perished 
in a high-rise fire here early Tuesday as the daughter of an airline pilot whose 
plane was hijacked on 9/11 and crashed into the Pentagon. 
Wendy Burlingame, 32, died of smoke inhalation 
when fire swept through her 10th-floor apartment in the 44-story Galaxy Towers 
complex, according to a preliminary report by investigators. 
Burlingame was the only daughter of Charles F. Burlingame III, who was the pilot 
of American Airlines Flight 77 on Sept. 11, 2001, her uncle, Mark Burlingame, 
said Tuesday. 
Wendy Burlingame's death was being investigated as a suspicious death, according 
to Hudson County Prosecutor Edward DeFazio. 
Her live-in boyfriend, whose name was not released by authorities, was also in 
the apartment when the fire started shortly before midnight Monday, 
investigators said. 
According to investigators, the boyfriend told them that he and Burlingame had 
tried to extinguish the fire with water from a sink. When tried to flee, the 
boyfriend made it into the hallway, but accidentally shut and locked the front 
door before realizing that Burlingame was not right behind him. He wasn't able 
to get back in. 
As firefighters rushed into the 44-story building to put out the blaze, the 
building resident assigned as fire warden for the night found the boyfriend 
outside the apartment door, visibly shaken, and led him to safety. 
Firefighters found Burlingame's body in a hallway between the kitchen and a 
bedroom. Her two dogs, a 4-year-old pit bull and a pit bull puppy, also died. 
Preliminary reports indicated Burlingame died from smoke inhalation, and there 
was no indication of additional trauma to her body, said DeFazio, who said an 
autopsy and toxicology test might reveal more. 
Burlingame had moved to Guttenberg from Pittsburgh several months ago, her uncle 
said." -

Daughter of 9/11 Flight Pilot Is Found Dead 
After a Fire 
"The woman, Wendy Burlingame, 32, was discovered 
by firefighters in a short hallway between the kitchen and the bedroom of her 
10th-floor apartment where the four-alarm fire began, said Edward DeFazio, the 
Hudson County prosecutor. Mr. DeFazio said the fire, which law enforcement 
officials are calling suspicious, began shortly after midnight in the apartment 
Ms. Burlingame shared with her companion and was still under investigation, as 
was the cause of Ms. Burlingame’s death. No one else was injured in the fire, 
Mr. DeFazio said. 
Mr. DeFazio said her companion of three years was among several people being 
interviewed in connection with her death. He would not identify the companion, 
but tenants in the complex identified him as Kevin Roderick. 
Sebastian Rojas, 27, lives downstairs from Mr. Roderick. He said that while he 
did not know Mr. Roderick and Ms. Burlingame well, they were “real late-night 
people” whose footsteps, and two dogs, he heard constantly above his head. 
The two dogs were also found dead in the home, Mr. DeFazio said. 
Shortly before the fire erupted, Mr. Rojas said, there were “louder noises than 
usual” coming from the apartment upstairs, “like somebody running around up 
there, like somebody doing something up there in a rush.” 
Then he said he heard a thud — “like somebody dropped something”— and three or 
four minutes later the building’s fire alarm sounded. Mr. Rojas said that within 
minutes his apartment filled with smoke. He then safely left the building." -

9/11 KIN HORROR; N.J. HI-RISE 'ARSON' KILLS DAUGHTER OF PENTAGON PILOT 
"A month ago, Burlingame, 33, picked up stakes, 
sold her lucrative online dating service in Pittsburgh and moved to New Jersey 
to live with her long-time boyfriend, Kevin Roderick, relatives said. 
Roderick, an Army veteran, escaped unscathed when the deadly blaze broke out in 
the bedroom at 12:03 a.m. 
Hudson County Prosecutor Edward De Fazio said that "drinking might have been 
involved" but did not elaborate.  
Burlingame's body was found in the hallway between 
the kitchen and bedroom. The couple's two dogs also died. 
Police questioned and released Roderick. He told them he thought Burlingame "was 
behind him" when he fled the smoky apartment." -

On a Wing and a Prayer; Grievance theater at 
Minneapolis International Airport. 
BY DEBRA BURLINGAME 
Wednesday, December 6, 2006  
"The activist Muslim American Society (MAS) issued 
a press release within hours of the incident, demanding an apology and 
announcing a "pray-in" at Reagan National Airport in Washington, D.C. Standing 
just a short distance from the Pentagon, where five years ago black plumes of 
smoke from the crash of American Airlines flight 77 could be seen for miles, the 
assembled demonstrators complained that African-American Muslims, accustomed to 
"driving while black," must now cope with the injustice of "flying while 
Muslim." This brazen two-step is racial politics at its worst; none of the imams 
are African-American. MAS, which teaches an "Activist Training" program with 
lessons on "how to talk to the media," must have been thrilled when one cable 
news outfit, suckered by the rhetoric, compared the imams' conduct to that of 
civil rights icon Rosa Parks, who refused to give up her bus seat in the face of 
institutional racism. One wonders what the parents of the three 11-year-olds who 
died on flight 77--all African-American kids on a National Geographic field 
trip--would make of this stunning comparison. 
Ms. Burlingame, a director of the World Trade 
Center Memorial Foundation, is the sister of Charles F. "Chic" Burlingame III, 
the pilot of American Airlines flight 77, which was crashed into the Pentagon on 
Sept. 11, 2001." -

December 24, 2006 - Attorney and journalist 
Paul Sanford, who was the first reporter to ask the White House if Karl Rove's 
alleged outing of CIA agent Valerie Plame constituted treason, allegedly jumps 
to his death from the 9th floor of an Embassy Suites Hotel in Monterey, CA. 
  
Lawyer falls to death at hotel 
"In what police describe as a "probable" suicide 
leap, a prominent Monterey Bay Area attorney fell at least nine floors to his 
death at the Embassy Suites Hotel Monterey Bay in Seaside the morning before 
Christmas. 
Shortly before 9:30 a.m. Sunday, officers found the body of Aptos attorney Paul 
Sanford in the west end of the hotel lobby, where he had landed on a large 
ventilation grate. 
Almost immediately, he caused a stir after he 
joined the White House Press Corps in 2005, making waves as the first reporter 
to ask then-White House press secretary Scott McClellan whether the leaking of 
CIA agent Valerie Plame's name might be considered an act of treason. 
"There has been a lot of speculation concerning the meaning of the underlying 
statute and the grand jury investigation concerning Mr. Rove," Sanford asked. 
"The question is, have the legal counsel to the White House or White House staff 
reviewed the statute in sufficient specificity to determine whether a violation 
of that statute would, in effect, constitute treason?" 
McClellan was apparently flustered by the question and replied that "those are 
matters for those overseeing the investigation to decide." 
Mills said he had spoken to Sanford's wife, Paula, 
and that she also was in shock. He said Sanford, a father of two, was a devoted 
family man. 
"This is a horrible thing for his family. He would never have intentionally put 
his family through that trauma. Something's not right, it doesn't make sense." -

To date - The FBI's Most Wanted 
List does not mention that Osama bin Laden is wanted for 9/11 because the 
FBI has "no hard evidence" connecting him with the attacks. 
  
FBI says, "No hard evidence connecting Bin Laden 
to 9/11" 
"On June 5, 2006, the Muckraker Report contacted 
the FBI Headquarters, (202) 324-3000, to learn why Bin Laden’s Most Wanted 
poster did not indicate that Usama was also wanted in connection with 9/11. The 
Muckraker Report spoke with Rex Tomb, Chief of Investigative Publicity for the 
FBI. When asked why there is no mention of 9/11 on Bin Laden’s Most Wanted web 
page, Tomb said, “The reason why 9/11 is not mentioned on Usama Bin Laden’s Most 
Wanted page is because the FBI has no hard evidence connecting Bin Laden to 
9/11.”  
Surprised by the ease in which this FBI spokesman made such an astonishing 
statement, I asked, “How this was possible?” Tomb continued, “Bin Laden has not 
been formally charged in connection to 9/11.” I asked, “How does that work?” 
Tomb continued, “The FBI gathers evidence. Once evidence is gathered, it is 
turned over to the Department of Justice. The Department of Justice than decides 
whether it has enough evidence to present to a federal grand jury. In the case 
of the 1998 United States Embassies being bombed, Bin Laden has been formally 
indicted and charged by a grand jury. He has not been formally indicted and 
charged in connection with 9/11 because the FBI has no hard evidence connected 
Bin Laden to 9/11.” -
Muckraker Report 
(06/06/06) 
  
FBI: Bin Laden Not Wanted for 9/11? 
"The FBI's "Most Wanted Terrorists" web page does 
not state that Bin Laden is wanted for the September 11, 2001 attacks on the 
World Trade Center and the Pentagon. 
The FBI page states: "Usama Bin Laden is wanted in connection with the August 7, 
1998, bombings of the United States Embassies in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and 
Nairobi, Kenya. These attacks killed over 200 people. In addition, Bin Laden is 
a suspect in other terrorist attacks throughout the world." 
When asked why there is no mention of 9/11 on the FBI's web page, Rex Tomb of 
the FBI's public affairs unit is reported to have said, "The reason why 9/11 is 
not mentioned on Usama Bin Laden's Most Wanted page is because the FBI has no 
hard evidence connecting Bin Laden to 9/11." 
"On September 20 2001," according to the Guardian, "the Taliban offered to hand 
Osama bin Laden to a neutral Islamic country for trial if the US presented them 
with evidence that he was responsible for the attacks on New York and 
Washington. The US rejected the offer." 
On September 23, 2001 the BBC reported that four of the hijack "suspects" - 
Waleed Al Shehri, Abdulaziz Al Omari, Saeed Alghamdi, and possibly Khalid Al 
Midhar - were alive, and that FBI Director Robert Mueller acknowledged "the 
identity of several of the suicide hijackers is in doubt." 
Bin Laden, in a September 28, 2001 interview with the Pakistani newspaper Ummat, 
is reported to have said: "I am not involved in the 11 September attacks in the 
United States." 
FBI Director Robert Mueller, in a speech at the Commonwealth Club on April 19, 
2002, said: "In our investigation, we have not uncovered a single piece of paper 
- either here in the United States, or in the treasure trove of information that 
has turned up in Afghanistan and elsewhere - that mentioned any aspect of the 
September 11 plot." 
The evidence against Bin Laden, promised by Secretary of State Colin Powell on 
September 23, 2001, has yet to be made available to the public. 
Bin Laden is the "prime suspect" in the September 11 attacks, said President 
Bush on September 17, 2001, and he pledged to capture him "dead or alive." -
Milli Gazette (06/11/06) 
  
Bin Laden, Most Wanted For Embassy Bombings? 
"Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden is a longtime and 
prominent member of the FBI's "Ten Most Wanted" list, which notes his role as 
the suspected mastermind of the deadly U.S. embassy bombings in East Africa on 
Aug. 7, 1998. 
But another more infamous date -- Sept. 11, 2001 -- is nowhere to be found on 
the same FBI notice. 
The curious omission underscores the Justice 
Department's decision, so far, to not seek formal criminal charges against bin 
Laden for approving al-Qaeda's most notorious and successful terrorist attack. 
The notice says bin Laden is "a suspect in other terrorist attacks throughout 
the world" but does not provide details. 
The absence has also provided fodder for conspiracy theorists who think the U.S. 
government or another power was behind the Sept. 11 hijackings. From this point 
of view, the lack of a Sept. 11 reference suggests that the connection to al-Qaeda 
is uncertain. 
Exhaustive government and independent investigations have concluded otherwise, 
of course, and bin Laden and other al-Qaeda leaders have proudly taken 
responsibility for the hijackings. FBI officials say the wanted poster merely 
reflects the government's long-standing practice of relying on actual criminal 
charges in the notices. 
"There's no mystery here," said FBI spokesman Rex Tomb. "They could add 9/11 on 
there, but they have not because they don't need to at this point. . . . There 
is a logic to it." 
David N. Kelley, the former U.S. attorney in New York who oversaw terrorism 
cases when bin Laden was indicted for the embassy bombings there in 1998, said 
he is not at all surprised by the lack of a reference to Sept. 11 on the 
official wanted poster. Kelley said the issue is a matter of legal restrictions 
and the need to be fair to any defendant. 
Bin Laden was placed on the Ten Most Wanted list in June 1999 after being 
indicted for murder, conspiracy and other charges in connection with the embassy 
bombings, and a $5 million reward was put on his head at that time. The listing 
was updated after Sept. 11, 2001, to include a higher reward of $25 million, but 
no mention of the attacks was added. 
The FBI maintains a separate "Most Wanted Terrorists" list, which includes bin 
Laden and 25 others who have been indicted in U.S. federal courts in connection 
with terror plots. But this second bin Laden listing also makes no mention of 
Sept. 11. 
"The indictments currently listed on the posters allow them to be arrested and 
brought to justice," the FBI says in a note accompanying the terrorist list on 
its Web site. "Future indictments may be handed down as various investigations 
proceed in connection to other terrorist incidents, for example, the terrorist 
attacks on September 11, 2001." -
Washington Post (08/28/06) 
  
Most Wanted Terrorist - Usama Bin Laden: 
"Usama Bin Laden is wanted in connection with the 
August 7, 1998, bombings of the United States Embassies in Dar es Salaam, 
Tanzania, and Nairobi, Kenya. These attacks killed over 200 people. In addition, 
Bin Laden is a suspect in other terrorist attacks throughout the world." -
