Internet domain names like 'attackontwintowers.com' and
'worldtradetowerattack.com' were registered more than a year ago. It's
not
known at this time who registered the suspicious names or what their
purpose
was... at least 17 domain names, including 'pearlharborinmanhattan.com'
and
'worldtradetowerstrike.com,' were registered as early as June 2000, 15
months prior to the attacks.
nuancemaestro pointed us to this disturbing, but poorly substantiated
article. WHOIS currently lists many of the domains cited in the article
as
available, and lists others (attackontwintowers.com,
pearlharborinmanhattan.com) as reserved on 9/11/01 or later. While it's
quite possible that many domain listings have been taken down by law
enforcement, it's odd that they would be listed as available instead of,
say, registered to the FBI.

Internet Domain Names May Have Warned of Attacks
http://www.middleeastwire.com/atlarge/stories/20010919_3_meno.shtml
Cybercast News Service
By Jeff Johnson
Posted Wednesday September 19, 2001 - 05:12:09 PM EDT
The terrorists who planned and executed the September 11 attack on
America
may have registered as many as 20 Internet domain names, or web
addresses,
that experts believe should have warned authorities of a possible assault
on
the World Trade Center in New York City.
Internet domain names like 'attackontwintowers.com' and
'worldtradetowerattack.com' were registered more than a year ago. It's
not
known at this time who registered the suspicious names or what their
purpose
was.
"It's unbelievable that they (the registration company) would register
these
domain names, probably without any comment to the FBI," according to Neil
Livingstone, head of Global Options LLC, a Washington, D.C.-based
counter-terrorism and investigation company.
"If they did make a comment to the FBI, it's unbelievable that the FBI
didn't react to it," he added.
A spokeswoman in the FBI press office would only say that the agency will
not comment on its investigation into the attacks.
According to Livingstone, at least 17 domain names, including
'pearlharborinmanhattan.com' and 'worldtradetowerstrike.com,' were
registered as early as June 2000, 15 months prior to the attacks.
Two of the domain names contained the dates August 11 and September 29,
which Livingstone said may have indicated the window of opportunity
during
which the attackers planned to strike.
He also dismissed speculation that the domain names were a reference to
the
bombing of the World Trade Center eight years ago. "You have two other
names
containing 2001, so there's no confusion over the 1993 World Trade Center
attack." To protect his sources, Livingstone would not say with which
company the domain names in question were registered. He had no
information
about the identity of the person or people who registered the names.
A domain name search Tuesday indicated that hundreds of web addresses
containing references to the terrorist attacks were registered in the
past
week, and four of the older domain names provided by Livingstone have
already been re-registered.
Domain name registrants are required to use a credit card for payment,
and
must provide administrative, technical, and billing contact information.
That information, except the credit card data, is available to the public
as
long as the registration is kept current.
Livingstone indicated that the required use of a credit card should mean
that authorities would at least have a starting point to investigate the
registrant.
"This is something that someone should have noticed," he said, "but
privacy
issues probably kept it from being noticed." Telephone calls to several
domain name registration companies Tuesday were not returned.
The website for Network Solutions, the world's largest domain name
registrar, included a privacy statement indicative of industry standards
regarding confidentiality: "We will not share such information with other
third parties, except in response to formal requests (e.g., subpoena or
court order) made in connection with litigation or arbitration
proceedings
directly relating to a domain name registration or other services we
provide." Former CIA Director James Woolsey said current laws make it
difficult for the FBI to get a warrant for electronic surveillance and
wiretaps, or to recruit informants based on actions such as registering
threatening domain names.
"There would not be enough material that is close enough to a specific
crime
for an investigation to be opened," Woolsey said.
But Livingstone believes authorities should have the right to investigate
inflammatory rhetoric, even something as simple as the registration of a
web
address that might indicate criminal intent.
"Something like this ought to come to our attention, and we ought to
investigate whether you do intend to act on it, or whether you're just a
nut
case out there who's just venting," he said.
The attackers might have been planning a propaganda campaign following
the
attacks, according to Livingstone. "Maybe their success was so
overwhelming
that they didn't need to use this," he said. "Or they may have decided it
was too dangerous to do." Domain names on the list provided to
Livingstone
by an industry insider included: "attackamerica.com,"
"attackonamerica.com,"
"attackontwintowers.com," "august11horror.com," "august11terror.com"
"horrorinamerica.com," "horrorinnewyork.com," "nycterroriststrike.com,"
"pearlharborinmanhattan.com," "terrorattack2001.com,"
"towerofhorror.com,"
"tradetowerstrike.com," "worldtradecenter929.com,"
"worldtradecenterbombs.com," "worldtradetowerattack.com,"
"worldtradetowerstrike.com," "wterroristattack2001.com."
