Having the 9/11 Commission account for its omissions, conflicts of interest and outright lies is all it would take. No controlled demolition necessary.

When the neo-cons called for a NPH they were simply referring to the shock value of Pearl Harbour in galvanising American public opinion to accept a radical militarisation of society. It makes no difference who the pilots were or who they were fighting.

As for MIHOP, LIHOP or your new PIHOP, the fact remains that US troops were preparing in July to go into Afghanistan in September so they knew damn well the attack was coming. I don't believe PIHOP is that accurate.

As for LIHOP, the problem is, it sounds nice on paper but out in the real world, as I understand it, you simply cannot allow such latitude and have to take control of every aspect of such a plan, hence MIHOP. To see what I mean, consider the famous case of Hani Hanjour the miracle pilot who did the famous corkscrew dive on his alleged approach to the Pentagon. This aeronautical manoeuvre ensured he flew into the empty wedge of the Pentagon and missed the offices of the Joint Chiefs. Now imagine you were Rumsfeld on the morning of 9/11 sitting in your office knowing the attack was on the way. You know, too, the suicide bomber has given you his solemn word that he will fly into the back of the building and miss you at the front. How do you feel? Confident that he will keep his word? I think not. There's no way you can rely on that to happen. Hence the use of a missile to hit a pre-ordained spot.

That's my take on it anyway.

The Warren Commission was patched and re-patched on multiple occasions by multiple people, including Gerald Ford on several occasions and by GHWB on the occasion of Ford's death. The 9/11 Commission was a set-up and a put-up from the beginning, and its supporters live on in the Presidency, inside the White House (Cass Sunstein), and in multiple chairs inside the Congress and the Senate. The entire system is as criminal and corrupt as it can be. One need only understand how AIG came to be, what it and its players control or controlled, and do a little homework about machinery, software, business ownerships, and the like. We will likely have a worldwide conflagration before anyone can get around to moving the issue in any meaningful way. There will be no awakening, enlightenment or transformations; the crooks own the soporifics, the mesmerizers, the spies and the assassins. What there will be is more Kabuki theater, more destruction, more theft and more graft, until the creaking monstrosity comes down in a crash due to its own weight and the hollowing out given it by its very owners. Any day now... rinse the sand off those sweet potatoes. No need to order cocktail sauce with your gulf shrimp cocktail anymore; it comes packed in its own heavy crude.
