FROM THE COINCIDENCE FILE:

The day after US Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld announced that the military had lost $2.3 trillion, the accountants responsible for tracking the money were killed when American Airlines Flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon.

“One Army office in the Pentagon lost 34 of its 65 employees in the attack,” reported The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette on Dec. 20, 2001. “Most of those killed in the office, called Resource Services Washington, were civilian accountants, bookkeepers and budget analysts. They were at their desks when American Airlines Flight 77 struck.”

In total, 184 people--including those onboard the hijacked airplane and inside the building--died as a result of the attack on the Pentagon.

$2.3 million missing. That is more than both of the so-called "bailouts" combined. Or is my math off by a half dozen zeroes?

I have attached a CBS Report to the video section accompanying this report. It's worth watching.

Add a few more zeroes. That's $2.3 TRILLION!

Ken:

It seems to me that 9/11 is about the only single issue with enough blunt force trauma to temporarily unite 90% of Americans.

But I wonder if the remaining 10% have enough firepower to kick off the Second American Civil War...

That Russian dude is predicting US Civil War this year. It's so pathetic that these inter-generational criminals get to hide behind the fabric of our nation.

So, what happened to this controversy? I hope it had not been buried with the accountants when they became a casualty of 9/11.

The "shock" of 9/11 distracted the public's attention away from the REAL enemies of the people.
