The end of this article goes into a more sordid affair (in a sense) and links the Buffet connection to Iran-Contra and the LA crack explosion. In relationship to this you may wish to view the links I have provided at the end. You may not.
Functionally, the following is a disclaimer: I give little credence to Alex Jones.

Subject: [prj] Offutt, Buffett, and 9/11: Strange Coincidences
Hmm?! Buffett, as a major insurance company investor, would be in an
excellent position to covertly benefit from selling insurance company
stocks short on prior knowledge!
Offutt, Buffett, and 9/11: Strange Coincidences
By Mary Louise
A recent trip to Omaha intensified the sinking feeling in the pit of
my stomach, which has not subsided since that dreadful day, "The Day
That Changed The World". While our nation was in shock and turmoil,
Bush was being flown hither and yon, with Offutt Air Force Base as
one of his stops. Intriguing questions haunted my thoughts about why
that location, what went on behind closed doors, and who was there.
One thing has led to another since then and much m ore has been
revealed by those who would not allow numerous details to be swept
under the rug and forgotten. There have been so many crafty cover-ups
and crude contradictions that prior knowledge cannot be denied, only
ignored as the warnings were, or played down. Bush knew and Black
Tuesday is being used and abused for political ploys and manipulation
of the military, especially now with the upcoming
presidential "election".
Offutt Air Force Base was the place to be for quite a few VIP's on
9/11, from which strange coincidences have emerged in the scheme of
things, including Warren Buffe
tt's unpublicized charity event.
Although this fortress is guarded and shielded with maximum security
and secretive arrogance from the prying eyes and ears of the general
public, it's amazing what can be found on search engines and
government websites. So let's go ahead and pry!
One of nine unified commands in the Depa rtment of Defense, U.S.
Strategic Command or USSTRATCOM, is a command and control
headquarters located at Offutt Air Force Base near Omaha, Nebraska.
Representing all four branches of the military, the command has
extensive ties with defense agencies, the Department of Energy's
national laboratories, and other sources of support. USSTRATCOM
integrates and coordinates the command and control capability to
provide accurate and timely information for the President, Secretary
of Defense, and regional commanders.
The command consists of a Joint Forces Headquarters for Information
Operations a
nd four directories: Combat Support, Global Operations,
Policy Resources and Requirements, and Strike Warfare. Service
commanders retain primary responsibility for maintaining the
readiness of USSTRATCOM forces and performing their assigned
functions of organizing, training, and equipping forces for
employment when called u pon to support USSTRATCOM's global mission.
This information was obtained from
www.stratcom.mil/overview&organization.htm .
At this point my questions are what were they doing on September 11th
when we really needed them? USSTRATCOM has highly trained personnel,
the latest technologies, and expensive equipment. Since they have
everything the average person doesn't, it seems fair to say they
failed us when it mattered most. What are they there for anyway? Why
should they be rewarded with promotions, more authority, and
increas
es in funding while others are on the verge of homelessness or
grieving for lost loved ones? The same reasoning applies to the CIA
and FBI for their "intelligence" failures. There are no satisfactory
explanations for so many failures, period.
Getting back to U.S. Strategic Command,
www.nautilus.org/nukestrat/USA/Force/stratview92.html tells us that
shortly after the Washington Summit Agreement between the U.S. and
Russia in 1992, representatives for STRATCOM briefed then Defense
Secretary Cheney and Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff Powell. Cheney
wanted an in-depth study of the strategic nuclear forces and the
Joint Staff and US Air Force considered this to be STRATCOM's
responsibility, who developed "a preferred USSTRATCOM force
structure". This became the basis for the study, the force structure
with which to move into the 21st cen
tury. After visiting Offutt Air
Force Base, the Assistant Secretary of Defense said that STRATCOM
had, "filled the void that we sought to eliminate through the
establishment of the command".
Incidentally, Defense Department officials are planning to meet in
August to discuss implementation of proposals for more nuclear
weapons. This represents a grave new threat to the world. Is it
another coincidence that the week they are planning to meet happens
to be the anniversary of the bombings on Hiroshima and Nagasaki?
Methinks not. Please see www.SOS2003.com for more information.
In a press release dated June 26, 2002, the DoD announced the merger
of U.S. Space and Strategic Commands, as part of the ongoing
initiative to transform the U.S. military into a 21st century
fighting force. Scheduled to take place October 2002, the intended
merger would improve combat effectiveness and speed up information
collection and
assessment needed for strategic decision-making, the
preferred location for the new headquarters being Offutt
AFB. "StratCom and SpaceCom have successfully provided the
capabilities to meet the nation's defense needs for many years. The
merged command will be responsible for both early warning of and
defense against missile at tack as well as long-range conventional
attacks," said Rumsfeld.
Pertaining to the above news release,
www.ngaus.org/newsroom/commandmerger62702.asp goes on to say that
beginning October 1st, the U.S. Northern Command will work with the
North American Aerospace Defense Command, or NORAD. Northern Command
will have overall responsibility for homeland defense from a military
standpoint and will coordinate with the Office of Homeland Defense.
Bush nominated General Ralph Eberhart to command Northern Command in
May, which in
volves commanding U.S. Space Command and NORAD, as well
as being the Defense Department manager of Space Transportation
Systems Contingency Support. According to
www.oilempire.us/standdown.html , Eberhart was in charge of air
defense on 9/11 before his promotion to Commander of the new Northern
Command, established in October 2002. The Northern Command would
manage the domestic use of the U.S. military, if or when full-scale
martial law is implemented.
The Strategic Air Command Center or SACC, is a two-level underground
structure reminiscent of "Dr. Strangelove's" bunker, that links
directly with the National Military Command Center in the Pentagon,
Washington D.C., and other major command headquarters. Vital data can
be displayed on wall screens or individual monitors, in a matter of
seconds. The Joint Chiefs of Staff Alerting Network allows the
Comma
nder in Chief of the Strategic Air Command or CINCSTRAT prompt
contact with the President, Secretary of Defense, Chairman of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff, and other unified commanders. The Command
Center can communicate with aircraft in flight over any part of the
world through satellites and radio networks. Its main purpose is to
pass on the National Command Authority orders to the alert forces.
One of the major reasons Bush flew to Offutt AFB was because it has a
sophisticated national defense system, for holding videoconferencing
meetings in times of emergency. There he held a teleconference call
with Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, Armitage, Tenet, Mineta, and others.
Knowing this, one would assume that the SACC should have helped to
track and intercept the hijacked airplanes, as well as other command
centers. Internet journalist Scott Shuger wrote, "IGNORAD: The
Military Screw-up Nobody Talks About",
www.attackonamerica.net/ignorad.htm , and quotes NORAD's commander
Gen. Eberhart's explanations for the failures. Shuger points out that
it is not true there was nothing NORAD could have done, for one thing
they could have flown faster, and he explains why the time/distance
argument is flawe d, in spite of the FAA's delay in notifying the
military. The NORAD home page declares its mission to include "the
detection, validation, and warning of attack against North America
whether by aircraft, missiles, or space vehicles". Shuger had this to
say, "At the aircraft part of this mission...NORAD stinks"
(alternative word). In June of 2002, Scott Shuger, a fitness buff,
master of judo and karate, and an experienced scuba diver was found
in the water, a little off shore on the California coast south of
L.A. The cause of death was not known at the time.
In The London Morning Paper,
http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/londonmorningpaper/index.htm there was an
article by Tom Flocco, "9-11 Damage Control Team Testifies Friday on
Air Defense Failure", that fits right in with the topic at hand. The
National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the U.S. is supposed to
consider clear evidence of a military stand-down. September 11th: the
Attacks and Response will be addressed in public hearings on May 22nd
and 23rd, www.tomflocco.com/9-11_Damage_Control_Team_testifies.htm .
Once the hearings are complete, the audio, video, and transcripts of
the public hearings are posted in the archives at www.9-11commission.gov/hearings/hearing2.htm . The hearing on Thursday was
not shown on C-Span 3, as planned in the
programming schedule, but
everything of less importance sure was. As this article is being
written, the Friday hearing is being televised live on C-Span 3,
though the daily schedule said C-Span 2, more coincidences? It is
this writer's opinion that these mistakes were intentional and
everyone should make it their business to watc h these historic
hearings. What are they trying to hide?
By the way, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette ran an article on May 19,
2003, "Pentagon and NASA Team Up to Design Hypersonic Plane", which
mentions "a future fleet of government and commercial hypersonic
vehicles, traveling between dozens or even hundreds of 'sky ports'
around the world -- and beyond." For more information: www.posst-gazette.com/healthscience/20030519sonicplane0519p6.asp .
Early in the morning on 9/11, a small group of top financial CEO's
with offices in the WTC, were flown to the nerve center of U.S. air
defenses, for a "Charity Classic" golf event (fund raiser benefit for
youth groups). Warren Buffett hosted this event. Rush Limbaugh said
on the air that he was there also. Then there is the group of top
Pentagon officials who suddenly canceled travel plans on Se ptember
10th due to security concerns. These are just a few of many highly
suspicious and strange coincidences.
Warren Buffett was born in Omaha, Nebraska. He is known as one of the
wealthiest men in the United States, with a fortune that is reported
to be approximately $36 billion. He is also known to be a miser. He
wants 99% of his wealth to go to the Buffett Foundation, which mostly
serves family planning clinics. It is not surprising, as he was
active in abortion issues during the 60's. His company Berkshire
Hathaway has gained overall value since 9/11.
Other companies in
which Buffett owns large blocks of shares are;
Coca Cola, American Express, Gillette, the Washington Post Company,
Wells Fargo and Company, Sees Candy, Benjamin Moore and Co., GEICO
Direct Auto Insurance, and Dairy Queen. This information was found on
a website of Buffett admirers,
www.askmen.com/men/business_politics/43b_warren_buffett.html .
The reader will see why these companies should be boycotted in the
following paragraphs:
"The Franklin Cover-up: Child Abuse, Satanism, and Murder in
Nebraska" by John W. DeCamp, attorney and former Nebraska senator, is
an investigation of satanic sexual abuse, ritual murders, pedophile
rings, child pornography and prostitution, kidnapping, and money-
laundering. It involves top Washington D.C. politicians, savings and
loan executives, and media cover-ups. This book is dedicated to the
aut
hor's dear friend, Bill Colby, former head of the CIA (before
Bush), who died under very mysterious circumstances in 1996.
The Franklin Credit Union scandal centered in Omaha opens a window
into the hellish world of child abuse and organized drug trafficking
patronized and protected by powerful figures in politics and
busine ss. This awful but true story is about the abuse of positions
of public trust, the Cover-up by institutions of government, and the
abhorrent conduct and Cover-up by some of our wealthiest citizens.
The unfinished business of the Franklin investigation is not only a
matter involving children from Nebraska, but the lives of untold
numbers of children everywhere.
In the Foreword of the book John DeCamp asked his friend Bill
Colby, "What do Ronald Reagan, President George Bush (Sr.), former
CIA Director William E. Colby, Democratic presidential candidate Bob
Kerrey, billionaire and s
econd richest man in America and now head of
Salomon Brothers - Warren Buffett, and Ronald Roskens, the current
administrator of the Agency for International Development, all have
in common?" Colby replied, "I give up, what could that group have in
common?" DeCamp answered, "Three things, all of them a burden at
times for those who hav e to carry them. The three things are me (John
DeCamp), a case called Franklin, and a man named Larry King."
Lawrence E. (Larry) King was the manager of Franklin Community
Federal Credit Union, when it was raided by federal agencies and shut
down. Nearly $40 million was missing from the coffers of the credit
union, as the financial scandal turned into something more. It became
known children from Omaha and its surroundings said they had been
flown from city to city to be abused at parties held by Franklin's
officers, well-known Nebraskans, and Republican activists.

As time goes by, it is becoming more and more difficult to keep track
of everything in such a complicated story with numerous players,
motives, and extensive details. The various timelines compiled are a
valuable aid in sorting through rampant hype and discrepancies.
Inspired by the excellent timeline at the From the Wilde
rness
website, Paul Thompson started adding to it with primarily mainstream
sources and has contributed a great accomplishment with Allan Wood
called, "An Interesting Day". It was featured May 12 on Prison Planet
and can be found in the archives. It is a must read for anyone trying
to connect all the dots and can also be read at
www.cooperativeresearch.org/timeline/main/essayaninterestingday.html .
It is very distressing, that the powerful clique responsible for the
sacrificial deaths on 9/11 and the black cloud of misery upon the
population use it to their advantage at every opportunity. Having all
the advantages, including unlimited free publicity, they also block
investigations and disclosure of incriminating information, under the
very convenient excuse of being "classified" for "National Security".

of 9/11" at

Drastic draconian laws are sneakily passed, while the ones behind it
are exempted from their ridiculous rules and burdensome regulations.
It was figured out long ago, before the Project for the New American
Century was drea med up. We are even expected to trust them as the
experts and put them on a pedestal, as they destroy everything of
real value and try to make us the enemy.
To top it off, they provoke the world to despair and rage against
America and make enemies out of allies. The ones who call the shots
in their private planes, mansions, bunkers, and groves are the ones
who benefit from their actions with impunity. The U.S. government has
been under siege for a long time, by ruthless imposters with ulterior
motives and this is not the real America. The government has become
the U.S. Corpor
ation of the Power Elite worldwide and we are the
scapegoats. If they would just leave us alone to live and let live,
most people would get along with their neighbors. Don't we have
enough problems already?
"T-Bone" Ridge said in a hearing, "they want answers to questions".
Why is it then, that they don't want our questions truth fully and
forthrightly answered? Because the proof is in the pudding and the
pudding is putrid, made from their recipe of killing, lying, and
stealing. Are there strange coincidences? Do birds fly?
Support Infowars with your heartfelt prayers and financially. Cherish
the gift of _expression_ that we have been given through the voice of
Alex Jones, who speaks boldly and unceasingly, on our behalf.

Is it just a coincidence that many of the same players that are in 9:11and everything from the Bay of Pigs to Operation Northwoods to LBJ to the Miami 5 to JFK's assassination to the Venezuelan Coup to Jeb Bush and the election fraud to Florida Flight Schools to Iran-Contra to BCCI all have Florida connections? http://memes.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=1036
