NRO's 9/11 'mock' plane crash set for 9:32am, drill included a smoke generator!
(9/11 researcher Matt Everett (aka 'Shoestring') wrote a great article near last Sept 11th anniversary that revealed some new details about the CIA & NRO's extremely suspicious and coincidental plane crash 'drill' planned for 9/11 that a lot of people might of missed.)
If it couldn't get any more coincidental than US spy agencies planning to have a mock plane crash into a govt building on -- of all days -- 9/11, their mock plane crash was to happen at 9:32am*, just 5min before the official time that the Pentagon would be hit (9:37am).
The full list of coincidences between the CIA/NRO's "drill" and the real Pentagon attack:
• Both took place on 9/11
• Both of their buildings struck by airplanes (officially)
• Both planes took off from Dulles Airport
• Both crashes happened at practically the same time (or exactly the same time)
• Both will have generators emitting smoke at near/same time.
• Both will have casualites and badly burned employees needing evacuation from their buildings
• Both will have fire trucks and EMT vehicle attending
• All parties (CIA, NRO, Pentagon, Dulles) are in the same metropolitan area
What are the odds that the everything planned in the NRO's plane-crash-into-building "drill" would take place in real life at the Pentagon on the very same day just 5min later (officially), or maybe even the same exact time (unofficially)?
Another 9/11 coincidence to add to the rest of them....I don't know what are the chances.
September 2000 - Exactly one year before 9/11, the Project for the New American Century (PNAC) advocates the build up of the U.S. military, but won't think it will happen unless the U.S. experiences a major catastrophic event such as a "new Pearl Harbor".
REBUILDING AMERICA’S DEFENSES
Strategy, Forces and Resources For a New Century
"To preserve American military preeminence in the coming decades, the Department of Defense must move more aggressively to experiment with new technologies and operational concepts, and seek to exploit the emerging revolution in military affairs.
Moreover, the Pentagon, constrained by limited budgets and pressing current missions, has seen funding for experimentation and transformation crowded out in recent years. Spending on military research and development has been reduced dramatically over the past decade.
Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event – like a new Pearl Harbor.

"...in a report just before the 2000 election that would bring Bush to power, the group predicted that the shift would come about slowly, unless there were "some catastrophic and catalyzing event, like a new Pearl Harbor."
That event came on Sept. 11, 2001. By that time, Cheney was vice president, Rumsfeld was secretary of defense, and Wolfowitz his deputy at the Pentagon." - ABC (03/10/03) [Reprinted at: WayBack Machine]
"Like his father, Bush tries to keep a daily diary of his thoughts and observations. That night [9/11], he dictated: "The Pearl Harbor of the 21st century took place today." - Washington Post (01/27/02)
"This is the second Pearl Harbor. I don't think that I overstate it," said Sen. Chuck Hagel, R-Neb., referring to the attack 60 years ago that surprised the nation's intelligence apparatus and propelled the country into World War II." - The Post (09/11/01)

October 24, 2000 - The Pentagon conducts the first of two emergency training exercises called MASCAL which is about a mock plane crash of a passenger aircraft into the Pentagon less than a year before 9/11.
Contingency planning Pentagon MASCAL exercise simulates scenarios in preparing for emergencies
"The fire and smoke from the downed passenger aircraft billows from the Pentagon courtyard. Defense Protective Services Police seal the crash sight. Army medics, nurses and doctors scramble to organize aid. An Arlington Fire Department chief dispatches his equipment to the affected areas.
On Oct. 24 [2000], there was a mock terrorist incident at the Pentagon Metro stop and a construction accident to name just some of the scenarios that were practiced to better prepare local agencies for real incidents.
A major player in the exercise was the Arlington Fire Department.
In this particular crash there would have been 341 victims." - Military District of Washington (11/03/00)
"No one ever imagined that a domestic plane would be used as a weapon to strike The Pentagon; but, fortuitously, because of its proximity to Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, someone did imagine the accidental crash of a Boeing 757 airliner into the U.S. military’s headquarters. Last May, as part of their readiness training, the DiLorenzo clinic’s tri-service staff participated in a simulation exercise for this unlikely, but possible, event. They were well-prepared to help bring order to chaos after the Sept. 11 terrorist attack." - TRICARE, Military Health System
Excerpts from an interview with Major Lorie A. Brown, who was Chief Nurse of DiLorenzo TRICARE Health Clinic.
"Having practiced over the past year our roles and worked our pieces, we knew our lanes of responsibility. I’m the chairperson for the DiLorenzo Action Response Team, DART; that is our MASCAL plan. For the past year, the DART team has been working on developing that plan, really creating a whole new plan. We sat down and met on numerous occasions with the Air Force clinic, civilian EMS, [Emergency Medical Services] Pentagon and DoD hierarchy, DPS and with the other civilian medical agencies. We worked through issues, what would happen in the event of a MASCAL, what each of our roles would be. We participated in several large tabletop exercises with these external bodies, to include FEMA [Federal Emergency Management Agency] and the others I just mentioned. We even did our own internal exercise where we made up the scenario of a plane crashing into the building. Though you can never be prepared for an event like this, I am sure all our preparations and exercise paid off." - Office of Medical History, OTSG [HTML]
Excerpts from an interview with Lieutenant Colonel John Felicio, who was Deputy Commander for Administration of the DiLorenzo TRICARE Health Clinic.
"I then went out to the front of the clinic, which is basically where we normally marshal in MASCAL situations.
Meanwhile, I knew because of the two MASCAL exercises we previously did that Colonel Kaminski, our Chief of Ancillary Services, was responsible for being our Medical Liaison at the Emergency Operation Center (EOC) and that he should be en route to that location.
The saving grace to our efforts was the two MASCAL exercises we previously had conducted with the clinic leadership and staff. You know it was kind of eerie. The scenario we had for these MASCALS was very similar to what actually happened. Our scenario for both MASCALS was a plane flying into the Pentagon courtyard." - Soldiers to the Rescue/Responding in the Pentagon [HTML]

• December 18, 2000 - Bush says it would be a lot easier if the U.S. was a dictatorship and he was the dictator.
"GOV. GEORGE W. BUSH (R-TX), PRESIDENT-ELECT: I told all four that there were going to be some times where we don't agree with each other. But that's OK. If this were a dictatorship, it'd be a heck of a lot easier, just so long as I'm the dictator." - CNN (12/18/00)
NRO's drill planned for 9/11 was to imagine, no real plane involved, a light aircraft crashing into their bulding after engine failure.
If you are suggesting that this drill, which never happened, was part of an overall conspiracy you are going to have to explain to me how it furthered the plot.

Beside this being your opinion, do you have a source for this information?

I have made no claim. But, it does not disprove there is no conspiracy, don’t you agree.
You say you have made no claim but it is clear from your OP that you regard it as very suspicious to put it mildly.
As for your point about it not disproving a conspiracy; well, I had my car serviced on 9/11, that doesn't disprove a conspiracy either; just has nothing to do with it.

I don;t believe the date is correct, that would have to be 2001 as he was not yet President on 12/18/2000.
9/11 had too many coincidences to be anything but a planned job from the inside.

The US military conducts Amalgam Virgo 01, a multi-agency live-fly homeland security exercise sponsored by the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) and involving the hypothetical scenario of a cruise missile being launched by “a rogue [government] or somebody” from a barge off the East Coast. Osama bin Laden is pictured on the cover of the proposal for the exercise.

NRO's drill planned for 9/11 was to imagine, no real plane involved... The drill bit was going to be evacuation of staff after the imaginary crash.

Exactly what most truthers believe happened at the Pentagon too, an IMAGINARY plane crash with a REAL generator emitting smoke. Both happening on the same day at nearly the same time. What are the odds?!
