The 911 Facts You Wish You Could Debunk (not about buildings or planes)

ABC News:

"The group, the Project for the New American Century, or PNAC, was founded in 1997. Among its supporters were three Republican former officials who were sitting out the Democratic presidency of Bill Clinton: Donald Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney and Paul Wolfowitz."

"And 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."

"Ironically, just moments before the Department of Defense was hit by a suicide hijacker, Secretary Rumsfeld was describing to me why America needs to abandon its decade-old two-major-war strategy, and focus on the real threat facing us in the 21st century: terrorism, and the unexpected."

"And let me tell you, I've been around the block a few times. There will be another event." He repeated it for emphasis: "There will be another event." -- Donald Rumsfeld, the morning of September 11, 2001. "Within minutes of that utterance, Rumsfeld's words proved tragically prophetic."

U.S. Military Drafted Plans to Terrorize U.S. Cities to Provoke War With Cuba

Code named Operation Northwoods, the plans reportedly included the possible assassination of Cuban émigrés, sinking boats of Cuban refugees on the high seas, hijacking planes, blowing up a U.S. ship, and even orchestrating violent terrorism in U.S. cities. America's top military brass even contemplated causing U.S. military casualties, writing: "We could blow up a U.S. ship in Guantanamo Bay and blame Cuba," and, "casualty lists in U.S. newspapers would cause a helpful wave of national indignation."
