News Buzz: 9/11 Suspects at Gitmo Tribunal, Clinton to Back Obama, and More
In their long-awaited first appearance before a war-crimes tribunal, the accused mastermind of the September 11 terrorist attacks and four alleged coconspirators faced a military judge today. Khalid Shaikh Mohammed and the other 9/11 suspects, who were moved this morning from their cells at the U.S. Navy base in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, appeared with their lawyers before Marine Col. Ralph Kohlmann. Coming more than 6½ years after the terrorist attacks, the arraignment of the five detainees marks the highest-profile test to date of the controversial tribunal system, which is being challenged before the U.S. Supreme Court. All five could receive the death penalty if convicted of war crimes including murder, conspiracy, attacking civilians, and terrorism.
Hillary Clinton will end her historic bid for the presidency and place her support behind rival Democrat Barack Obama at a public event on Saturday. Clinton's decision comes after Obama racked up enough delegates and superdelegates after the Montana and South Dakota primaries Tuesday night. She was also pressured by Democratic members of Congress who didn't want to continue an intraparty brawl to the convention. In an E-mail to supporters, Clinton wrote she "will be speaking on Saturday about how together we can rally the party behind Senator Obama. The stakes are too high and the task before us too important to do otherwise."
In an Internet posting today, an al Qaeda group claimed responsibility for Monday's suicide car bombing against the Danish Embassy in Islamabad and threatened more attacks. The statement, for which there was no independent verification of authenticity, said the bombing was in revenge for the reprinting in Danish newspapers of a cartoon of the prophet Muhammad wearing a bomb-shaped turban. The attack killed at least six people, including one Danish citizen, and caused widespread destruction. Signed by al Qaeda commander Mustafa Abu al-Yazeed and dated Tuesday, the statement warned that if Denmark fails to apologize for the cartoons, more attacks will follow and Monday's blast will "only be the first drop of rain."

Did Planes Really Crash Into the WTC Towers on 911?
Did Planes Really Crash Into the WTC Towers on 911?
Contrary to NIST & the US Government, there is overwhelming evidence to conclude that the planes seen on TV were the result of SFX special effects (TV fakery).
Many try to suppress this obvious fact, but to exclude other theories out of hand w/o examination is not only disingenuous, it's simply denial (a defence mechanism) and only results in a misinformed, skewed opinion.

There were no planes entering the WTC Towers on 911. Perhaps all the related films about 911 produced before and since were made to condition the public into acceptance of the official "planes" fantasy. Any discussion of planes on 911, passengers, hijackers, etc. all continue to help keep the fantasy alive.
Believing the government’s fairytale of planes colliding with the Towers is the main problem w/ fully understanding 911. The media was broadcasting fake, manipulated images of planes. Superimposing a plane on 911 was done w/ Wescam technology; it provided a single "live" feed from which all the TV networks broadcast. Other videos & images started to appear in the days, weeks & months following 911. All of them have anomalies & impossibilities which can only be explained by excluding planes.

Real planes would have been a potential liability for the perps on 911. It was easier to control the outcome of the event with much less risk by using the media to broadcast fake imagery. Real jets might miss their targets, get shot down, suffer pilot or computer errors, destroy or prematurely detonate any explosives, passengers could have overtaken the hijackers, and/or the plane might not inflict enough perceived damage to make a collapse believable.
A single fact which cannot be refuted is that a hollow aluminum plane (especially fragile wings) cannot slice through steel beams and concrete without any damage to the plane. News footage showing an airliner gliding into a Tower without any resistance is a cartoon. Aluminum planes are not built for impact and crumple immediately upon contact with solid objects; even a small bird can rip through a jet’s wing.

Furthermore, a large speeding jet’s vortex trails behind it creating a highly active atmosphere which follows in its path. Had a real plane impacted a WTC Tower, real film footage would have recorded the airliner’s vortex interacting with and violently dissipating the smoke from the alleged crash and the adjacent North Tower. No vortex literally means no planes on 911 (TV fakery).

During the South Tower "impact", fake TV footage shows a WTC Tower sealing itself around the plane during the alleged penetration. Still another too incredible to believe anomaly is the width of the plane’s purported gash didn't match the width of a Boeing 757’s wing span. Another widely publiciz
Martyrdom - No way
Koran makes it very clear that suicide is forbidden, but it states several times that the martyr can expect an afterlife in paradise.
I suggest that Khalid and his pack of murderers be given life in solitary confinement where Allah can whisper to them on the error of their sins.
son of sonof man
Amen!!
