Speaker Says Bush Knew Of Sept. 11 Plans:

A noted Christian theologian suggested Monday in Madison that the Bush
administration not only had prior knowledge of the terrorist attacks of Sept.
11, 2001, but probably helped orchestrate them.
David Ray Griffin, 65, a retired professor at the Claremont School of Theology
in Claremont, Calif., said the government's version of the attacks is so
implausible it can't possibly be true.
The numerous inconsistencies and far-fetched explanations from Bush officials
"show that the attacks must have been planned and executed by our own
political and military leaders," Griffin said.
He thinks Bush endorsed the attacks to gain support for a military buildup and
global domination effort that began with the invasions of Afghanistan and
Iraq.
Griffin is part of a small group of scholars and others questioning the
government's story and the conclusions of the bipartisan 9/11 commission that
investigated the attacks.
Griffin's speech before about 450 people at Bascom Hall on the UW-Madison
campus was considered a major victory by his supporters in that it was taped
by C-SPAN for later broadcast on the public service cable channel. No air
dates were available Monday.
Event organizer Kevin Barrett, founder of a Muslim-Jewish-Christian alliance
called MUJCA-NET, told the crowd C-SPAN should be applauded "for having the
guts to put 9/11 truth on national TV."
Barrett said his group paid Griffin's airfare and was hoping to provide an
additional $100 to cover expenses. Otherwise, Griffin did not charge for his
appearance.
Griffin has written extensively on the origins of evil and the relationship
between science and religion. He has authored or edited 24 books, including
"The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions About the Bush Administration and
9/11."
In the Sept. 11 attacks, armed terrorists hijacked four passenger jets. Two
crashed into the World Trade Center in New York and a third crashed in a field
in Pennsylvania.
According to the government, the fourth jet crashed into the Pentagon in
Arlington, Va., although Griffin questions this and suggests the damage may
have been caused by a military plane or missile.
Griffin operates from the basic premise that 19 Arab-Muslim hijackers could
not have outwitted this country's extensive military defense system without
inside help. Among his arguments:
* Fighter jets typically are sent out immediately upon any sign that a plane
may have been hijacked. They usually arrive no later than 10 to 20 minutes.
Yet in this case, the military failed to stop the attacks, then gave three
conflicting versions of why it deviated from standard operating procedure,
Griffin said.
* The Pentagon is probably the best-defended structure on the planet. How
could a commercial airliner fly undetected and toward the Defense Department
for 40 minutes and not be shot down by the Pentagon's anti-aircraft system?
* Bush lingered for more than 15 minutes at an elementary school after
learning of the second jet crashing into the World Trade Center. Given that
Bush's itinerary had been highly publicized, why wasn't the Secret Service
concerned that he might be a target of a surprise terrorist attack?
"This behavior makes sense only if the head of the Secret Service detail knew
that the planned attacks did not include an attack on the president. And how
did they know this for certain unless the attacks were being carried out by
people within our own government?" Griffin said.
* The straight-down, free-fall collapse of the World Trade Center buildings
suggests a controlled demolition. A plane crash and fire could not have caused
such a collapse, Griffin said.
These examples and others "are sufficient to suggest that there is no escape
from the frightful conclusion that 9/11 was engineered by the Bush
administration and its Pentagon," he said.
He closed by saying religious people must seek the truth about 9/11, create
new means to spread the information and work to thwart Bush's attempts at
global domination.
The crowd gave Griffin a standing ovation.
Rob Helfenstein, 41, a floor installer from Waukesha, came away convinced.
"Governments have always used fake terror to manipulate their people," he
said. "History hasn't changed."
But his friend, Dave Balistreri, 35, a construction consultant from Waukesha,
said he entered and left the lecture hall skeptical. Although Balistreri said
the Bush administration probably isn't telling the whole truth, "I think the
level of complicity is much, much less than (Griffin) is suggesting."
