Revision as of 06:51, 12 March 2003 by Greggygreggreg (talk | contribs)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)The 9/11 Domestic Consipracy Theory is a conspiracy theory advocated by certain political groups in which it is argued that George W. Bush or American Intelligent Services knew, in advance, about the September 11, 2001 Terrorist Attacks. Theorists often go on to argue that Bush actually supported the attacks as they would provide an excuse to launch the War on Terrorism. (See also: Operation Northwoods) Advocates of this theory often argue that, on the day of the terrorist attacks, Israeli workers were warned not to go to work at the World Trade Center and that key government officials were warned not to fly on aircraft heading through New York and Washington airspace. Advocates also argue that Bush has not allowed a proper investigation of the attacks.
The theroy is also supported by the story of Delmart Vreeland, a spy for the Office of Naval Intellegence. While in Canadian custody on August 11 and 12 2001, Mr. Vreeland wrote a note which listed a number of targets such as the Sears Towers, World Trade Centre the White House and the Pentagon. The note also said: "Let one happen. Stop the rest!!!" The notes which were in an evidence locker on the morning of 9-11, can be seen at: http://www.guerrillanews.com/wildcard/thenotes
Like most conspiracy theories, this is generally regarded as being unsubstantiated.
It does parallel the more widespread belief that the US government had advance knowledge of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.
