I remember watching a documentary on aircraft carriers and how we tested ours buy simulating an attack on pearl harbor, and it was a success. So they can't say they didn't know it was possible, they should have been ready for it. To the OP, I too was in the service and well acquainted with special operators and you are correct that they are well aware of these types of conspiracies, and there is nothing to do to stop it with out paying with your career or life. a reply to: mindseye1609

Actually he mentioned one guy who died in an "accident" that many of at ATS know.
This person gave one post 9/11 interview.

I have to say the conversion was extremity interesting, I just asked him one question. And he basically spilled the beans on many covert operations nothing specific, but enough that you could tell he just knew. It was crazy. Eventually the conversation went to 9/11 which he said it is basically known in his circle of operatives that it was an inside job. Also people have been killed to be silenced about this event if they spoke up publicly and too damagingly, he even mentioned a specific time window used.
Nothing anybody can do about it either, it is what it is.
I can't say too much more, but he says some of the things you see in the movies actually happen, especially the way they show it being covered up so the general population doesn't know.
But the 9/11 part of the conversation is what had me the most interested.

I don't know, although not exactly the same, I once happened to sit next to the CFO of a military branch. We talked the entire flight and he was quite open to many topics, I guess, so long as I asked the right questions in the right manner. I personally think he was just surprised that some random citizen was that privy.

First off, whoever thinks spec. ops (or whatever fancy terms you want to use) do not tell their family what they have been up to/operations they have been on - nonsense, they do tell their families, friends and people in the pub.
Why are they so open to talk, same knowledge journalists have - nobody will believe the public (as this thread shows) so you can tell them anything, get the load of your chest and nobody will believe when they blab. Just be careful who you tell.
And as always - if you think the thread doesn't add value to ATS then don't make it rise up the ranks by commenting on it. Looool!
