Why is it you think that humans, who are so very different and patriotic will suddenly abandon their countries and allegiences and join together? What is the mechanism that you see making this happen?
The internet allows us to come together to discuss such things, ATS being a perfect example. I do not see how a site like ATS would be allowed to run if we were in fact living in the "police state" you are we are living in. I do not see todays people as being more accepting of the "one world government" idea. In fact, i see it much less.

Your making a LOT of assumtions to make your theory look sound.
Why did black boxes even have to be on the planes? If this was planned, would the government not have pulled them first? Bringing buildings down to bury boxes? That doesnt make sense at all. Even if they only hit the buildings, the government clean up crews would have taken the boxes away. No need for them to fall at all.
Trust me. An attack on sovereign American soil, buildings falling or not would have been more than enough justification for Bush and Cheney to do what they wanted to do. Making sure they fall would have been a logistical nightmare that would be completely unnecissary. I think you underestimate American resolve when they are attacked by foreigners. Even without the buildings collapsing, many would have died, and it would have been veiwed as an attack on the state.
If this was planned and Iraq was to be the target, why were Saudis used? Would the US government not have thought it through and at LEAST had one Iraqi? Your arguement does not hold.

please wake up and smell the coffee. governments everywhere are horribly corrupt.
Don't get me wrong, I sincerely believe our government is corrupt. And I see the 'benefits" (from the gov's eyes) of martial law and all of the other results of the attack. There is no denying that our government "benefitted" (in furthering their agenda) from 9/11.
I just don't believe they would go through the incomprehensible tediousness of planning the attack down to the details that some theories put forward.
And that was really the question I was trying to ask. Keeping with my previous example, why go through the trouble (and risk of being exposed) of preparing a script for reporters to read, when just letting reporters do their thing would have been sufficient?

You are assuming everything happening exactly as planned. What if the planes missed the target and crashed somewhere else? Hmmmmm... Planes without black boxes. Isn't that suspicious. Hindsite is 20/20...

Wouldnt have mattered. The government simply would have declared a national emergency and the crash sites crime scenes. Who would wander up to the crashed planes and start picking through the wreckage hoping to find a black box? No one, because they know damn well the government would prosecute them for tampering with a crime scene.
In any case, the government would be at the crash sites within the hour and have it blocked off. I state again that if the government planned it, there never would have been black boxes in the first place.
Hindsight is indeed 20/20.

Follow the money. There are three major players in 9-11. Larry Silverstein, Dov Zacheim and Dick Cheney. LS bought the twin towers for approx. 120 million down and financed the rest. He insured the twin towers for [reportedly] 10 billion with a rider on the policy for terrorist attacks.
LS eventually received, according to different accounts, between 3 to 6 billion from the insurance plus what was looted from the twin towers vaults.
DZ had just left the Pentagon with a reported 2.8 trillion. He owned a company that took old 737's and made remote control drones out of them as well as obsolete military planes like Douglas B-66's. Amazingly, the drone hit the very part of the pentagon that was instrumental in investigating the disappearance of the 2.8 billion. BTW, the only airplane parts found were from 737s, engines, instrumentation, etc.
Dick Cheney was bought and paid for and with his help, the US Air Force was stood down long enough to facilitate the two crashes as well as the pentagon crash. The fourth plane (drone) to crash was either intentionally crashed (Flt. 93) or was shot down by a Michigan Air Guard F-16 depending on differing reports. Either way, alledgedly, it was determined that it would not make its intended target - the White House, and was destroyed probably because the Secret Service wouldn't let DC leave.
The money, precious metals, bonds, and everything else of value looted from the twin towers went to Israel, which has no extradition treaty with the US of any kind. All evidence of DZ's looting was destroyed at the pentagon.
There are links all over ATS and the internet that anyone with half a brain can access if they want to so none are included here.
