In situations like this, there is always more than meets the eye. Deceived? I'm sure that there is a lot information that is being withheld. Who said anything about blindly jumping into a "NUKE EM!" mentality, I don't recall saying or implying we should "NUKE" anyone. (If that is how you feel fine, but please don't try to project that on anything I have said.)
We should find who is responsible and make them pay for this atrocious act on our country and people. The guilty parties should pay dearly and pay forever for this act of WAR.
As for your theory that the CIA is somehow responsible for this act I can only tell you that your theory is missing a very important component, motive. Why would our own government want to take out some of the most intellectual financial minds on the planet? Why would our government want to put such a great financial burden on our own economy? Why would our own government want to kill so many civilians? (Are you trying to imply "Wag the Dog"?)
I don't think anyone here is asking you to have complete trust in the government & media or to blindly jump on the "NUKE EM" menality bandwagon, how are you coming to these conclusions?
You can count me in too. We must know the truth. It is the truth that can set us free.

I consider all these important stories.
To me, this is the most interesting political issue of the modern world. Who are these people? (And what, exactly, are their goals?)
I simply don't know -- I don't believe it's fascists after a police state or socialists after a One World (although those people are certainly used as part of the business of moving the project forward).
I think the ultimate answer -- if we ever figure it out -- will be much weirder than those two possibilities.
In the past, I've put up one or two tin foil threads about what I think might be happening, but just now I find it very hard to speculate about tin foil stuff because so many people are suffering such real, daily grief as a result of the WTC attack. I mean, conspiracy theories are fun, and may, ultimately, be useful. But because there's such a high content of bogus in even the best tin foil conjecture, I think it's best to put off extended and specific rambling until things settle down. (Unless they, in fact, continue to get even weirder...) Mark W.
O'Neill, a 31-year FBI agent who headed the counterterrorism section in the bureau's New York field office, retired last month. At the time, FBI sources confirmed that he was under investigation for leaving his briefcase filled with classified information in a Tampa hotel last year. The briefcase was stolen but found in another hotel a short time later, the sources said.(from "FBI Agents Resume Cole Probe In Yemen More Cooperation, Security Pledged," By Vernon Loeb Tuesday, September 4, 2001; Page A12 )

BOSTON (AP) -- Federal authorities are checking whether a suspected terrorist took a tour of the control tower at Logan International Airport three days before planes from the airport were hijacked, the FAA confirmed Sunday.
The FAA initiated an internal investigation after receiving a tip, said Jim Peters, spokesman for the New England regional office of the Federal Aviation Administration.
There is no log kept of tower visitors, and no security video. That means everyone who worked at the tower must be interviewed, Peters said.
The FAA, as a courtesy, allows pilots to tour the tower, though access is restricted. An air traffic controller at Logan, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said foreigners usually need permission from an FAA regional office before being allowed into the tower. The controller said he had not seen anyone matching the description of the hijackers in the tower.
The FAA regional office in Burlington, Mass., refused to comment, referring questions to spokesmen in New York.
The FBI says 10 men hijacked two passenger jets bound from Boston to Los Angeles on Tuesday morning and crashed them into the World Trade Center in New York City. Two other hijacked jets crashed into the Pentagon and a Pennsylvania field.
This fountain of knowledge just put the noose around the BinLaden Clan's neck.
It has been common knowledge on the streets of Boston that by crossing one Bulger you crossed them both. Just ask the Massachusetts State Trooper whose career was ruined after he arrested a Bulger bagman with $100,000.
The Boston FBI let this guy's brother murder informants at will!!!
Given their performance over the last 30 years I'm not suprised they didn't find anything amiss here.
These guys at the Kennedy School are diconnected at the neck when it comes to common sense.
RICO statutes have to be employed against this crime family.
