This website is the result of research which began shortly after September 11th 2001, at which time it soon became apparent that the "War on Terrorism" is merely a smoke screen that masks a hidden agenda. That agenda being the plan to shake-up the Middle East in favour of US "interests", primarily being the security of energy resources which are known to be in decline due to increasing global demand. The neoconservatives in Washington see this as vital if American global leadership is to continue. By declaring a 'War on Terrorism' the Bush administration was in fact going to invade other countries under the pretence of 'fighting the war on terror'. The attacks on 9/11 served as an ideal pretext to kick-start this plan.

There is no doubt that elements within the Saudi government/royal family were heavily involved with the hijacking plot. Pakistan's intelligence service (ISI), having long established ties with both the CIA and Saudi intelligence, also played a key part. It is clear that US intelligence knew in advance of the impending attacks, but took no action to stop them. Was this monumental incompetence or wilful neglect? America's use of Islamic militants for political purposes has a long history - further "independent" investigation could uncover CIA complicity.

Oil
- Global conventional oil production is on the brink of terminal decline (unconventional oil is more expensive to produce, but large amounts of it exist in South America and Canada) - The rate of oil discovery has been falling since the 1960's - The vast majority of the world's  remaining conventional reserves are located in the Middle East and Central Asia - Over 60% of oil consumed by the US is imported - By 2015 the UK too, will be importing over 50% of its oil requirements - According to independant Geologist Dr Colin Campbell, the global decline will start by 2010 "It starts with a price shock due to control of the market by a few countries, and it is followed by the onset of physical shortage, which just gets worse and worse and worse" [BBC]

Iraq

- Under former CIA 'hitman' Saddam Hussein, Iraq was the first OPEC member to start trading oil for euros instead of US dollars, thus threatening the strength of the US petro-dollar [Observer] - By changing Iraq's regime and removing the country from OPEC, this will loosen the stranglehold that OPEC has on world oil prices - The elusive weapons of mass destruction were sold to Hussein by Western companies right up until the late eighties [Times] [SundayHerald] - Iraq has vast and easily accessible conventional oil reserves, the second largest in the world [BBC] - The US now appears to be building permanent bases in Iraq [BBC]

Foreknowledge - nothing was done to prevent the attacks

- Ringleader Mohamed Atta was identified as an al-Qaeda operative in 2000 by a US military intelligence unit called 'Able Danger' [CNN] [ABCNews] - Detailed warnings were given to the US in advance of the attacks by at least 11 countries. Mossad even provided names of four of the hijackers [BBC] [Telegraph] [CooperativeResearch] - Straight after the attacks, United Airlines’ stock prices plummeted. At the time it was reported that suspicious 'put options' had been purchased. Basically, if you buy put option shares you are taking a gamble that those shares are going to drop in price, because you can then sell them at the original high price but purchase them at the new low price. The amount of these put options bought was way above the norm. Investigations into who was responsible for these deals lead to Deutsche Bank/Alex Brown Inc. The bank’s chairman up until a few years ago was former CIA executive director, Buzzy Krongard [Independent]

Pre-planted explosives?
Some people have suggested that explosives were used to bring down the towers and building seven. Having extensive knowledge of building construction, theDossier does NOT believe that this is the case. The people who support this demolition theory have no understanding of the basic principles of structural engineering. They fail to grasp the relevance of the buildings' unique designs, the damage caused by the impacts and the resulting fires. It's quite possible that this theory is disinformation, and one would do well to steer clear of this ridiculous notion. Discussions on the subject can be read here and here
