Sold me. Pass the tin foil hats.

Since my wonderful thread devolved into more bickering, I'll field this.
No, it was not 9 months in the making. The PNAC has been planning since at least 1994, if not earlier. Wolfowitz's words about a 'new Pearl Harbor' were absolutely clear. In addition to that, several federal agencies ran scenarios that when combined are very close to what happened on 9/11, starting in 1998. Planes crashing into the WTC and Pentagon, AF responses, bombing WTC, etc... the data was all there.
BTW, the other thread is simply slow not dead. That one thread has more data than 10 host threads combined. That takes a lot of time to process and then address.
