-Caveat Lector- *SAIC to practice dirty-bomb false flag in TOPOFF4* < http://www.total411.info/2007/10/saic-to-practice-dirty-bomb-false-flag.html >
*AP* 10/3/2007<http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5jgWlwQU6xnhKvkzTDNTioV_ABuzAD8S1JV500>: "The nation is preparing for its biggest terrorism exercise ever next week when three fictional "dirty bombs" go off and cripple transportation arteries in two major U.S. cities and Guam, according to a document obtained by The Associated Press. Yet even as this drill begins, details from the previous national exercise held in 2005 have yet to be publicly released — information that's supposed to help officials prepare for the next real attack. House lawmakers were expected to demand answers Wednesday, including why the "after-action" report from 2005 hasn't been made public. Congress has required the exercise since 2000, but has done little in the way of oversight beyond attending the actual events. Next week will be the fourth Top Officials exercise — dubbed TOPOFF. The program costs about $25 million a year and involves the federal government's highest officials, such as top people from the Defense and Homeland Security departments. [...] According to an internal department briefing of next week's exercise obtained by AP, a dirty bomb will go off at a Cabras power plant in Guam; another dirty bomb will explode on the Steel Bridge in Portland, Ore., impacting major transportation systems, and a third dirty bomb will explode at the intersection of busy routes 101 and 202 near Phoenix. Local hospitals and law enforcement agencies will be involved in the "attacks" by the dirty bombs, which are conventional explosives that include some radioactive material that would cause contamination over a limited area but not create actual nuclear explosions. "Lessons learned from the exercise will provide valuable insights to guide future planning..." [...] ----- Of course, what the feds and PMCs use the data for is to exploit the weak points for a future "event." This is what FEMA did with the Hurricane Pam drill in Louisiana -- they used the weaknesses they uncovered in Louisiana to inflict as much suffering as possible during the Hurricane Katrina operation. Little wonder they're keeping everything secret. >From *Responder Safety* 12/06/2006<http://www.respondersafetyonline.com/500/News/Article/False/43483/News>: "Emergency response agencies, government agencies and other organizations have begun planning for the fourth exercise in the Department of Homeland Security's Top Officials National Exercise Series (TOPOFF), scheduled for 2007. *AMTI*, a Virginia Beach, Va.-based company founded by special operations veterans, was chosen for *the lead role in planning and executing the exercise, under a $350-million, 5-year federal contract*. ----- >From *SAIC.com* 11/09/06<http://investors.saic.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=193857&p=irol-newsArticle&ID=929031&highlight=>: "SAIC Signs Agreement to Acquire Applied Marine Technology, Inc.
