Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

No idea who. But there's plenty of evidence to show that the American financial elite, at minimum, knew exactly what was happening and when.
Building 7 was involved for no good reason. Despite being nowhere near ground zero, it was mysteriously set ablaze, then fully evacuated and demolished.
Building 7 is the location where evidence was being stored and the biggest financial crimes of the past decade, including Enron, were being investigated.
The section of the Pentagon that was attacked also held evidence and personnel investigating high-profile financial crimes.
The WTC buildings were full of asbestos and required to undergo a lengthy and expensive abatement process. For this reason, the owner acquired the buildings in early 2001 for a mere $900 million. The abatement was required to be completed by Jan 1, 2002 but was never scheduled. The project would have taken approximately one year. After the buildings were destroyed, the owner collected a $1.2 billion insurance payout.
In the days leading up to the attack, a HUGE number of puts were purchased against American Airlines and United Airlines, the only two airlines involved in the attack. Every mathematician and statistician who looks at the numbers say it's indistinguishable from people buying based on foreknowledge. Despite this, investigators concluded no one could have possibly know ahead of time what would happen.
Who's involved? Who orchestrated it? How much of it was planned, and which parts were done along the way out of opportunism? Us normal folk may never know.
But I'll tell you one thing, anyone who buys the official narrative is being fooled.
Any source or bread crumbs for point 5?
