If Reynolds' complaint had no merit, the court would have it dismissed. They did not.

Instead, they unsealed it, and the Plaintiff's attorney, Jerry Leaphart, is now serving the Defendants with notice of the complaint.

Since the US District Court did not dismiss the complaint as frivolous, they obviously find ample evidence supporting the theory that no planes hit the towers and that directed energy weapons were used for the towers' destruction.

It is worthy to note that the Plaintiff (Dr Reynolds), representing the USA, is demanding a Trial by Jury. Let's watch the ABC/NBC/CBS/CNN/FOX CEO scum squirm!

The plaintiff/relator, Dr. Morgan Reynolds, plaintiff, by his attorney, Jerry V. Leaphart of Jerry V. Leaphart & Assoc., P.C. alleges as follows:

I. NATURE OF ACTION
1. The United States brings this action to recover treble damages and civil penalties under the False Claims Act, 31 U.S.C. §§ 3729-33 and to recover all available damages and other monetary relief under the common law or equitable theories of unjust enrichment, payment under mistake of fact, recoupment of overpayments and common law fraud.
2. These claims are based upon defendants' false claims and false statements made in and pursuant to certain reports, meetings, decision-making procedures, documentation, analyses of various types that resulted in accumulation of thousands of pages of text, reports, illustrations and graphic displays for which defendants received significant monetary compensation, all the while having overt and direct knowledge; and/or covert and indirect knowledge, or should have had such knowledge, that all such documentation was either false, fraudulent, a sham and/or designed to obfuscate the true and correct state of affairs that existed and that was hidden, as hereinafter articulated in detail. Recommendations and other contacts made with certain specified and otherwise duly empowered personnel and employees of that certain branch, agency or instrumentality of the United States Department of Commerce known as the National Institute of Standards and Technology (hereinafter generally referred to as NIST) were misled by the defendants’ fraudulent acts and/or omissions.
2 Case 1:07-cv-04612-GEL Document 5 Filed 07/11/2007 Page 2 of 34
3. Under and pursuant to the National Construction Safety Team (NCST) Act, 15 USCS @ 7301, signed into law in October 2002, NIST was duly authorized to investigate so-called building failures in the United States. The investigation of the destruction of the World Trade Center (WTC) complex occurring on September 11, 2001 began on or about August 21, 2002, with a budget of some sixteen million ($16,000,000) allocated for that purpose. The final report on the collapses of the 110-story, so-called Twin Towers of the WTC (hereinafter referred to jointly as WTC1, 2; and individually as WTC 1 and/or WTC2) was issued on or about October 26, 2005. Said report is entitled “Final Report on the Collapse of the World Trade Center Towers, and is commonly referred to as NCSTAR 1 (NCSTAR 1). NIST is still thought to be investigating the destruction of WTC building number 7 (WTC7), which was a 47-story skyscraper that inexplicably seemingly self-destructed in 6.6 seconds occurring at approximately 5:20PM on September 11, 2001, despite having not been visibly damaged by either any jetliner, missile or other object that would subject a modern, steel reinforced skyscraper to the danger of a complete, sudden and total disintegration, falling into its own footprint in less than seven seconds, which is almost tantamount to the time an object would take to fall from the height of WTC7 if it were free-falling in a vacuum, absent air resistance. NIST has not yet issued a report on the destruction of WTC7, but is relying on many of the same defendants herein named for purposes of the preparation of the report on WTC7. Upon information and belief, the ongoing conduct of NIST’s investigation is or may be the subject of other legal proceedings that are likewise calling attention to the need for corrections in the approach taken in that investigation.
3 Case 1:07-cv-04612-GEL Document 5 Filed 07/11/2007 Page 3 of 34
4. During the course of its investigation of the destruction of WTC1,2, NIST caused to be issued certain “solicitations” resulting in the awarding of certain contracts under and pursuant to which each of the said defendants were to have provided consulting and other services that would have enabled NIST to carryout its statutory mandate of “determining what caused the destruction of WTC1,2.”
5. Instead, however, defendants knowingly concealed, or failed to disclose, or caused others to fail to disclose material information in several reports filed in the public domain along with NCSTAR 1, and that comprise various sub-parts of NCSTAR 1, known as NCSTAR 1-1 through and including NCSTAR 1-8 and various subparts under each of the said NCSTAR 1-1 through and including NCSTAR 1-8 that, in the aggregate, constitute several thousand pages of text, documentation, graphical displays, simulations, charts and other documentation, all of which purported to satisfy, but intentionally did not satisfy, the mandate that NIST had, which was that of determining what cause the destruction of WTC1,2. Instead, all such documentation serves solely to mislead, obfuscate and provide a vehicle for the intended fraud; namely, that of steering NIST away from a consideration of what caused the destruction of WTC1,2; which, as elsewhere elaborated upon, was the use on 9/11/01 of exotic weaponry known as directed energy weapons.
6. Indeed, NIST, at pg. xxxv-vi of NCSTAR 1 openly admits that its mandate was to “determine why and how WTC1 and WTC2 collapsed following the initial impacts of the aircraft and why and how WTC 7 collapsed”. But, shortly thereafter and at pg. xxxvii of NCSTAR 1, NIST acknowledges that it did not “determine why and how WTC1 and WTC2 collapsed following the initial impacts of the aircraft and why and
4 Case 1:07-cv-04612-GEL Document 5 Filed 07/11/2007 Page 4 of 34
how WTC 7 collapsed” but, instead, NIST openly narrowed and limited its stated mandate of NCSTAR 1 at the behest and based upon the fraud perpetrated by defendants resulting in the inexplicable narrowing of NCSTAR 1’s mandate as follows: “[T]he focus of the Investigation was on the sequence of events from the instant of aircraft impact to the initiation of collapse for each tower. For brevity in this report, this sequence is referred to as the ‘probable collapse sequence’, although it includes little analysis of the structural behavior of the tower after the conditions for collapse initiation were reached and collapse became inevitable”. That innocuous sounding admission that NIST did not carry out its statutory function or mandate was caused by fraud and deceit and is the subject of this Qui Tam lawsuit.
7. Relator, in a Request for Correction dated March 8, 2007 (hereinafter generally referred to as March 8 RFC), copy annexed as Exhibit A, challenged NCSTAR 1 in its entirety based on the Data Quality Act Section 515 Public Law 106-554 and based on NIST’s admitted failure to determine what caused the destruction of WTC1,2, and further based on the submittal of proof that the actual cause was obfuscated by use of false, misleading and fraudulent simulations seemingly showing how hollow, aluminum aircraft could impact with structural steel and nonetheless, glide right through such steel structures (WTC1,2) from nose to end of its tail and wing to wing and leave an airplane shape, no less, all as though this event were a cartoon much like the Roadrunner; or much like a hot knife through butter. Such simulations violate the Data Quality Act and the False Claims Act and relator herein has so asserted.
8. In the March 8 RFC and in Supplement No. 1 to said March 8 RFC that was filed with NIST on April __, 2007, Relator indicated that fraud had been committed
5 Case 1:07-cv-04612-GEL Document 5 Filed 07/11/2007 Page 5 of 34
in that NCSTAR 1 was a fraudulent document, resulting from the acts and omissions of NIST participants, including the defendants herein; and/or in other respects, was fraudulent for ignoring, disregarding and/or intentionally concealing abundant evidence confirming that the conclusions contained in NCSTAR 1 were untenable, incomplete and
incongruent with the facts at hand; in other words: fraudulent.
9. Although the March 8 RFC is a comprehensive document detailing exactly how, in what manner and for what reasons NCSTAR 1 is fraudulent, and should therefore be read in its entirety in conjunction with the claims of fraud made herein, it can be said that in the main, NCSTAR 1 is fraudulent because it intentionally conceals the fact that the buildings known as the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center Complex, World Trade Center 1 and World Trade Center 2 were not hit by Boeing 767 jetliners and all such claims to that effect are glaringly and obviously blatantly false and are indeed, a manifested psychological operation (“psy op”) of the type that one or more of the defendants herein, including, without limitation, SAIC, specialize in.
10. Upon information and belief, such psy ops are and remain highly classified, secret instrumentalities of the military apparatus of the Armed Forces of the United States of America. Some of the defendants are known manufacturers, developers, implementers, testers, and researchers or are otherwise participants in either the development of psy ops or the concealment of their true nature and capacities from the general public. Much of the secrecy apparatus under which psy ops are developed and were employed on September 11, 2001 (hereinafter generally referred to as 9/11/01) may, in fact, fall outside the purview of the normal, legally mandated decisional and command structure of the Armed Forces of the United States of America and may, in fact, be rogue
6 Case 1:07-cv-04612-GEL Document 5 Filed 07/11/2007 Page 6 of 34
elements that are neither responsive to or even known to the lawful chain of command of the Armed Forces.
11. It is in that manner that some 3000 deaths were inflicted upon the United States of America on 9/11/01 based on fraud, apparent criminality and/or treason of a virtually unprecedented scale. This applies to both the events of 9/11/01 and to subsequent events that were justified upon the alleged commission of terror against the USA, when, in fact, the operation on 9/11/01 was in the nature of what is known as a “false flag operation” and what is also known as a “psychological operation” (psy op), of the type that some of the defendants herein, including, by way of non-exhaustive example, SAIC, engage in as a part of their business operations.
12. In reporting as NCSTAR 1 did, that two 110 story skyscrapers, WTC1,2, disintegrated in less than 10 seconds each, leaving a debris field that was almost level with the ground and rarely rising more than one-story in height and where heavy gauge, high quality steel, which quality of steel is and was well known to some defendants, including by way of non-exhaustive example, Underwriters Laboratories, was turned to dust before our very eyes and to claim, as NCSTAR 1 did, that the process seen was the “inevitable” result of plane damage, kerosene-based fire (jet fuel is a form of kerosene with certain additives) and gravity, defies logic, common sense, and scientific reasoning and rationale of the type that NIST was mandated to provide and that defendants were required to assist in, based on their individual and collective expertise, which constituted the basis for their selection as contractors and which resulted in the receipt by them of the payments that should not have been made and that should now be recovered, with interest and penalties under the False Claims Act.

13. Instead, defendants, and each and every one of them, especially those among them who are developers of psy ops, including by way of non-exhaustive example, SAIC and ARA, committed fraud in seeking to have NCSTAR 1 deceive the public into not recognizing that WTC1,2 could not reasonably or possibly have been hit by jetliners in the manner depicted in some (but not other TV feeds) absent the use of psy ops. Some of the defendants knew as much; other defendants either knew or if they did not, they should have known as it is all but obvious that hollow aluminum cannot glide through reinforced steel. To the extent they did not know this, such ignorance was willful, intentional and actionable under the False Claims Act.
14. As a result of defendants' false statements and false or fraudulent reports and other submissions issued or delivered to NIST during the course of NIST’s investigation in the years 2002 to 2005, defendants wrongfully obtained payments from NIST which they knew or should have known they were not entitled to receive, by virtue of the fraud they were then and there committing.
15. The causes of action alleged herein are timely brought on the basis of the filing of relator’s complaint in this action within either six (6) years of the events of 9/11/01 or within two (2) years of the issuance by NIST of its final report entitled NCSTAR 1, which was issued in or about the month of October 2005, and wherein relator filed the March 8 RFC and the Supplement thereto in which relator provided specific original source information concerning the nature of the fraud committed and the capacity of certain of the defendants to have knowingly engaged in that fraud by virtue of either their participation in the manufacture of development of psy op perpetuated on 9/11/01 or other areas of expertise, such as, by way of non-exhaustive example, WJE’s knowledge of structural steel and David Sharp’s collection and analysis of that steel, and the lack of any identifiable aircraft debris, such that he and others knew that what was found could not have reasonably resulted from the effects of gravity, kerosene and/or crash impact damage. By virtue of the collective and individual complicity of the defendants in the fraud that was perpetrated, such as expertise in psy ops, other defendants, like SAIC, all conspired to and did defraud both NIST and the public at large.

II. JURISDICTION

16. The Court has subject matter jurisdiction to entertain this action under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1331 and 1345 and supplemental jurisdiction to entertain the common law and equitable causes of action pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1367(a). The Court may exercise personal jurisdiction over the defendants pursuant to 31 U.S.C. § 3732(a) because at least one of the original defendants to this qui tam action resides or transacts business in the Southern District of New York and because the events that are the central component of the fraud that was committed are, or, rather, were, located in this district. Moreover, 28 U.S.C. § 1407 necessarily confers the jurisdiction of the Southern District of New York over the parties on this Court for this Multi-district proceeding.

III. VENUE

17. Venue is proper in the Southern District of New York, under 31 U.S.C. § 3732 and 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b) and (c) because at least one of the original defendants to this qui tam action resides or transacts business in that District.

IV. PARTIES

18. The United States brings this action on behalf of its Department of Commerce ("Commerce Department"), and its agency, the National Institute of Standards and Technology ("NIST"), which issued NCSTAR 1, one of the source documents in which the fraud alleged hereunder is to be found.
19. Plaintiff and relator Dr. Morgan Reynolds is a citizen of the United States and a resident of the State of Arkansas.. From approximately January 2006 through October 2006, Reynolds collected data and information and caused it to be published on his website for educational purposes which website is known as nomoregames.net. Reynolds caused to be published in or about the month of March 2006, his theory that the events of 9/11/01 that resulted in the utter, complete and total annihilation of the World Trade Center Complex, including WTC 1 and 2 as well as all other buildings having a WTC prefix were falsely depicted as having involved jetliners and that instead, no jetliner hit WTC1,2.
20. A Disclosure Statement in text and digital form has been delivered to the office of the Attorney General with copy to the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, containing copious data further detailing and substantiating the assertions that the apparent airliner images are but the manifestation of a psy op.
21. Defendant Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) is a publicly traded company which has its principle office at SAIC Headquarters, 10260 Campus Point Drive, San Diego, CA 92121. It has offices in 150 cities worldwide. It describes itself as “one of the largest science and technology contractors to the U.S. Government” and provides services and products for “all branches of the U.S. military, agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), the intelligence community, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and other U.S. Government civil agencies”. In January 2005, SAIC was awarded an Air Force Research Laboratory Contract for HighPower Microwave Program (http://www.saic.com/news/2005/jan/03.html). In 2005, SAIC also ran chemical oxygen iodine laser (COIL) at a branch of the Air Force Research Laboratory in Albuquerque, NM ((http://www.saic.com/news/saicmag/2005-fall/directedenergy.html). SAIC also engages in psy ops of the type that are intended to mislead the publics of targeted countries in furtherance, it would appear, of the Hobbesian principal that “in war force and fraud are the cardinal virtues”. Be that as it may be from a philosophical perspective, embodying, as it does, the more commonly expressed one that “might makes right”, the False Claims Act, by its terms, prohibits the use of fraud in the preparation of governmental documents and the provision of governmental services. SAIC engaged in fraud, then, in the wrong place and in the wrong context. Between ARA and SAIC, some twenty-five (25) persons were assigned to work on, by literally surrounding and, accordingly, controlling and manipulating, NIST officials such that fraud, the intended outcome, did, in fact, occur. It is telling that the two contractors who were most numerous among NIST’s contractors were those whose primary expertise includes the development of Directed Energy Weapons (DEW) and psychological operations (psy ops), as that term is understood for military and warfare purposes, respectively. Small wonder, then, that NIST did not investigate what caused the destruction of WTC 1,2; namely, DEW, carried out in the manner of a psy op.
22. Defendant Applied Research Associates Inc. (ARA) is an “employee
owned” corporation having its principal office and place of business at 4300 San Mateo Blvd. NE • Suite A-220 • Albuquerque, NM 87110 that currently operates ARA 73 offices in the United States and in Canada, some of which have classified computing and storage and military applications abbreviated as:
11 Case 1:07-cv-04612-GEL Document 5 Filed 07/11/2007 Page 11 of 34
• SEI CMMI Certification
• SCIF facilities
• SIPRNET access
ARA also has:
• Manufacturing/prototyping facilities
• Laboratories
• Testing facilities
located in various states, including, without limitation, the States of Vermont, Florida, Colorado and Texas. ARA, upon information and belief, manufactures or causes to be manufactured, develops and/or tests DEW that are operational in Earth orbit, at high altitude, low altitude, at sea and on land ranging in lethality from the capacity to do great damage, such as that of destroying the World Trade Center Twin Towers in less than 10 seconds each, as occurred on 9/11/01, down to and including imposition of a disabling stun on human beings for crowd control and/or other psy op purposes.
23. Defendant Boeing is a publicly traded company that has its corporate offices at Boeing Corporate Offices, 100 North Riverside, Chicago, IL 60606 (312-544-2000). It has offices in 70 countries. One of its companies is Boeing Integrated Defense Systems – the world’s second largest defense company, which provides end-to-end services for air, land, sea, and space-based platforms for global military, government and commercial customers. In January 2006, Boeing was awarded an Air Force Contract for Directed Energy and Space Surveillance Research & Development,
(http://www.boeing.com/news/releases/2006/q1/060116c_nr.html), including, by way of example, significant involvement in the development of the so-called Airborne Laser (ABL) that serves as a platform for the use of High Energy Lasers (HEL) that, upon information and belief, have the capacity to pulverize steel, destroy buildings in mere seconds, as happened to WTC 1,2 on 9/11/01.
24. Defendant NuStats is a full-service survey research and consulting firm, with more than 40 social scientists, research managers and technical specialists in their Austin, TX and Alexandria, VA offices. Its head office is at 3006 Bee Caves Road, Suite A300, Austin, TX 78746. NuStats is performing or has performed statistical research in the areas of education, transportation and on behalf of the Environmental Protection Agency. It is owned by the PTV group (http://www.ptv.de/). The services of this defendant include those of marketing, opinion sampling and focus group exercises designed, in the aggregate, to form, modulate, moderate and ultimately to manipulate public opinion. In other words, services ancillary to psy ops. NCSTAR 1 bears the hallmarks of a marketing device, not a scientifically derived forensic study as mandated by its enabling legislation.
25. Defendant Computer Aided Engineering Associates, Inc. is a privately held company that provides services in design and concept validation for such areas as Stress Analysis and Heat Transfer. It has its principle office at 1579 Straits Turnpike, Suite 2B, Middlebury, CT 06762 (310-393-9999). Its clients include the U.S. Army, U.S. Navy and Lockheed Martin Defense Systems. It is listed as a signatory to an agreement which the U.S. Army Armament Research, Development and Engineering Command (ARDEC) (under the umbrella of National Small Arms Technology Consortium-NSATC), where one of the listed future objectives: “4.3 Future Advanced Ground Combat Systems” is the “development and demonstration of agile target effects through such techniques as directed energy”. (http://www.pica.army.mil/nsac/Final%200TA%2018%Jan%2005BarbandDonna.doc).

26. Defendant DataSource, Inc. is a privately held company that provides services in IT project outsourcing, consulting, and project management services and systems integration. It has its principle office at 7500 Greenway Center Drive, Suite 420, Greenbelt, MD 20770 (301-441-2357. The Internal Revenue Service, U.S. Naval Sea Logistics Center Detachment Atlantic (NAVSEA) and the U.S. Department of Treasury are listed as clients. This defendant directly participates in steering the NIST investigation away from assessment of the evidence that jetliners could not possibly have glided nose to tail, wingtip to wingtip through WTC1,2 without deformation, debris or other normal effects associated with airliner impacts with buildings..
27. Defendant GeoStats, Inc. is a privately held company which provides “highly-specialized consulting services for transportation projects that require the collection and analysis of accurate spatial and temporal data”. Its products include GeoLogger™, a simple and practical in-vehicle GPS data collection solution. Its office is located at 530 Means Street, NW, Suite 310, Atlanta, GA 30318. That expertise was used to perpetrate fraud in the preparation of NCSTAR 1.
28. Defendant Gilsanz Murray Steficek LLP is an "employee owned" corporation having its principal office and place of business at 129 West 27th Street 5th Floor New York . NY 10001, also with offices in NJ and CA. Some of their services include Structural Design of buildings, bridges, and towers and also Specialty Services such as Seismic Evaluation and Blast Resistant Design. They contribute to the structural engineering community through involvement in professional societies and by publishing technical papers relevant to structural design. They have performed renovations/ constructions to many structures including Hoboken Terminal & Yard, Hoboken, NJ (railroad facilities, terminals, support buildings and bridges), 11 MetroTech Center, Brooklyn, NY (NYPD 911 computer operations). Their individual and collective expertise, and that of their employers, could have been, but was not, used for purposes of calling attention to the fact that the effects seen and left by the pattern of destruction of WTC1,2 could not have been caused by jetliner impacts. Instead, defendant chose to use its expertise to commit fraud based on either withholding information or manipulating information and by then accepting payment improperly.
29. Defendant Hughes Associates, Inc. (HAI) was founded in 1980 and is a global company with leading fire protection consultants and engineers, and fire investigators that specialize in fire testing, fire modeling, and fire protection design. Through state of the art fire engineering, modeling and testing, HAI's engineers and consultants lead the fire safety and protection engineering industry. Headquartered in Baltimore, MD (3610 Commerce Drive, Suite 817, Baltimore, MD 21227, HAI has offices throughout the U.S. and overseas with an office located in New York, New York. Their individual and collective expertise, and that of their employers, could have been, but was not, used for purposes of calling attention to the fact that the effects seen and left by the pattern of destruction of WTC1,2 could not have been caused by jetliner impacts. Instead, defendant chose to use its expertise to commit fraud based on either withholding information or manipulating information and by then accepting payment improperly.
30. Defendants independent contractors, Ajmal Abbasi, Eduardo Kausel, David Parks, David Sharp, Daniele Veneziano, Josef Van Dyck and Kaspar William, each and all participated in the work resulting in NCSTAR1, including, by way of example, review of steel remnants from WTC1,2 that clearly showed effects such as ablating, wilting, melting and molecular dissociation, all of which are utterly inconsistent with a kerosene-based fire, that could not have been caused by a jetliner crash. Their individual and collective expertise, and that of their employers, could have been, but was not, used for purposes of calling attention to the fact that the effects seen and left by the pattern of destruction of WTC1,2 could not have been caused by jetliner impacts. Instead, defendant chose to use its expertise to commit fraud based on either withholding information or manipulating information and by then accepting payment improperly.
31. Defendant Rolf Jensen & Associates, Inc. (RJA) is a company of fire protection and security consultants, registered with the General Services Administration and working closely with the federal government, providing professional engineering consulting services, products and programs. Its corporate headquarters is located in Addison TX (16633 Dallas Parkway, Suite 600, Addison, TX 70001), with additional offices throughout the U.S. and abroad including an office located at 360 W. 31st Street, Suite 900, New York, NY 10001. Since its inception (1969) it has earned the right to participate on many of the world’s leading projects. For the World Trade Center project, RJA teamed up with S.K. Ghosh Associates, Inc. (SKGA) and Rosenwasser/Grossman Consulting Engineers, P.C. (RG). Their individual and collective expertise, and that of their employers, could have been, but was not, used for purposes of calling attention to the fact that the effects seen and left by the pattern of destruction of WTC1,2 could not have been caused by jetliner impacts. Instead, defendant chose to use its expertise to commit fraud based on either withholding information or manipulating information and by then accepting payment improperly.
32. Defendant Rosenwasser/Grossman Consulting Engineers, P.C.’s president, Avenue, New York, NY 10018. It is a privately held company. Their individual and collective expertise, and that of their employers, could have been, but was not, used for purposes of calling attention to the fact that the effects seen and left by the pattern of destruction of WTC1,2 could not have been caused by jetliner impacts. Instead, defendant chose to use its expertise to commit fraud based on either withholding information or manipulating information and by then accepting payment improperly. Jacob S. Grossman, has been involved in the design of over 1000 steel and concrete buildings since 1957, three of these buildings are among the 100 tallest in the world. Mr. Grossman was a technical consultant to the Applied Technology Council for the development of “NEHRP Guidelines for the Seismic Rehabilitation of Buildings”. It has been involved in “participation with government agencies, including FEMA and NIST, and reviewing and improving design details that will protect against terrorist activity”. The corporation’s main address is 132 W. 36th at 6th

Its list of clients include the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the U.S. Department of Justice and U.S. General Services Administration. Their individual and collective expertise, and that of their employers, could have been, but was not, used for purposes of calling attention to the fact that the effects seen and left by the pattern of destruction of WTC1,2 could not have been caused by jetliner impacts. Instead, defendant chose to use its expertise to commit fraud based on either withholding information or manipulating information and by then accepting payment improperly.
34. Defendant S.K.Ghosh Associates, Inc., a privately held company, is involved in the development of seismic design code provisions for national model building codes and standards including ASCE 7 Standard for Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and ACI 318 Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete. Its main office is located at 334 E. Colfax Street, Palatine, IL 60067. Its clients include the Building and Fire Research Laboratory (part of NIST). Their individual and collective expertise, and that of their employers, could have been, but was not, used for purposes of calling attention to the fact that the effects seen and left by the pattern of destruction of WTC1,2 could not have been caused by jetliner impacts. Instead, defendant chose to use its expertise to commit fraud based on either withholding information or manipulating information and by then accepting payment improperly.

36. Defendant Teng & Associates, Inc., a Chicago-based engineering firm with its corporate office located at 205 N. Michigan Ave., Suite 3600, Chicago, IL 60601, and its New York office located at 350 Northern Boulevard, Suite 323, Great Neck, NY 11021-4809. The firm offers a full range of services including architectural design, urban design, planning, civil, structural, mechanical, plumbing, electrical and technology engineering, as well as full-service, integrated design/build services for America’s fastest growing business segments. Their individual and collective expertise, and that of their employers, could have been, but was not, used for purposes of calling attention to the fact that the effects seen and left by the pattern of destruction of WTC1,2 could not have been caused by jetliner impacts. Instead, defendant chose to use its expertise to commit fraud based on either withholding information or manipulating information and by then accepting payment improperly.
37. Defendant Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL) is an independent, not-for-profit product safety certification organization that has been testing products and writing Standards for Safety for over a century. UL evaluates more than 19,000 types of products, components, materials and systems annually with 21 billion UL Marks appearing on 71,000 manufacturers’ products each year. UL’s worldwide family of companies and network of service providers includes 66 laboratories, testing and certification facilities serving customers in 104 countries. Its corporate headquarters is located at 33 Pfingsten Road, Northbrook, IL 60062-2096. Their individual and collective expertise, and that of their employers, could have been, but was not, used for purposes of calling attention to the fact that the effects seen and left by the pattern of destruction of WTC1,2 could not have been caused by jetliner impacts. Instead, defendant chose to use its expertise to commit fraud based on either withholding information or manipulating information and by then accepting payment improperly. Said defendant not only knew that the quality of steel used in the construction of WTC1,2 should not have been significantly harmed or weakened by the stated combined effects of crash damage, fire and/or gravity, it overtly suppressed such information by terminating the services of one of its employees, Kevin Ryan, who called attention to that incongruity of causal explanation. Nonetheless, defendant then proceeded to engage in further fraud and deception by intentionally ignoring and/or manipulation of information that knew, or should have, that WTC1,2 were destroyed by means other than those stated in NCSTAR 1.
38. Defendant Wiss, Janney, Elstner Assoicates, Inc.(WJE) has its principal place of business at 330 Pfingsten Road, Northbrook, Illinois 60062 and is engaged in a wide range of structural and materials testing services. Their individual and collective expertise, and that of their employers, could have been, but was not, used for purposes of calling attention to the fact that the effects seen and left by the pattern of destruction of WTC1,2 could not have been caused by jetliner impacts. Instead, defendant chose to use its expertise to commit fraud based on either withholding information or manipulating information and by then accepting payment improperly. This defendant also analyzed steel remnants, including some showing obvious indicators of a degree of deformation, of destruction, of ablation and/or of molecular dissociation that could not have resulted from fire, gravity or crash damage, singularly, or in the aggregate. Yet, said defendant continued to commit and/or to allow fraud to occur, by allowing the assertion that steel could be destroyed in the manner they saw, observed, catalogued and otherwise documented by brief, uncontrolled exposure to kerosene-based fire. Kerosene, a middle distillate, combustible fuel, upon information and belief, physically cannot attain even a high fraction of the temperature needed to deform steel in the manner WJE knew to have existed. Thus, WJE committed fraud.
39. Defendant American Airlines is a division, subsidiary and/or brand name of AMR Corp., with a headquarters or principal office located at 4333 Amon Carter Boulevard, Fort Worth, TX 76155. American Airlines had one or more aircraft that were said to have been involved in the events of 9/11/01 and American Airlines then consulted with NIST in the preparation of NCSTAR 1. Their individual and collective expertise, and that of their employers, could have been, but was not, used for purposes of calling attention to the fact that the effects seen and left by the pattern of destruction of WTC1,2 could not have been caused by jetliner impacts. Instead, defendant chose to use its expertise to commit fraud based on either withholding information or manipulating information and by then accepting payment improperly.
40. Defendant Silverstein Properties has an office or place of business at 250 Greenwich Street, 38th Floor New York City, NY 10007 and holds a leasehold interest in and to the site where WTC1,2 stood. As such, this defendant had a clear conflict of interest in steering the investigation away from any hint, suggestion, much less conclusion that jetliners did not impact or have any bearing upon the destruction of WTC1,2 and the rest of the World Trade Center complex. Indeed, one anomaly that should be a hint that something is amiss is that all buildings having an address prefix of “World Trade Center,” namely buildings 1 through and including 7, were all completely and utterly destroyed on 9/11/01. Yet, for as horrific as that destruction was, virtually all other buildings in the area, some having a spatial relationship that was as close or nearly so as the WTC buildings were, one to the other, were not damaged very much at all, relatively speaking. Upon information and belief, Silverstein Properties benefited from an insurance claim relating to the events of 9/11/01. Upon information and belief, at least two of the insurers found to have been liable under their policies of insurance or of reinsurance with respect to this defendant, have, nonetheless, questioned the validity of the claim, based, in part, on the admission made by Larry Silverstein that WTC 7 was intentionally demolished, or words to that effect; and, further based on the as yet inadequate explanation of what did, in fact, cause the destruction of the World Trade Center complex. Upon information and belief, yet another presently pending action calls attention to the fact that a principal of this defendant, Larry Silverstein, has publicly admitted that WTC was intentionally demolished by using phrases that are to that effect. In that and in other ways, defendant chose to use its expertise to commit fraud based on either withholding information or manipulating information and by then accepting payment improperly. Most assuredly, this defendant has a clear, palpable conflict of interest that would motivate it to manipulate and avoid any consideration that jetliners did not impact with WTC1,2 and that, instead, a psy op was carried out.
41. Defendant United Air Lines, whose parent corporation is UAL Corporation, has its headquarters at 2 N. LaSalle Street, Chicago, IL 60602, with a mailing address of P.O. Box 66100, Chicago, IL 60666. United Airlines had one or more aircraft that were said to have been involved in the events of 9/11/01 and United Airlines then consulted with NIST in the preparation of NCSTAR 1. Their individual and collective expertise, and that of their employers, could have been, but was not, used for purposes of calling attention to the fact that the effects seen and left by the pattern of destruction of WTC1,2 could not have been caused by jetliner impacts. Instead, defendant chose to use its expertise to commit fraud based on either withholding information or manipulating information and by then accepting payment improperly.
42. Attached as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by reference, is a chart listing all parties who either contracted with or consulted with NIST in ways that are at issue in this action, hereinafter the “NIST participants.”

V. THE FALSE CLAIMS ACT

43. The False Claims Act (FCA) provides, in pertinent part that:
(a) Any person who (1) knowingly presents, or causes to be presented, to an officer or employee of the United States Government or a member of the Armed Forces of the United States a false or fraudulent claim for payment or approval; (2) knowingly makes, uses, or causes to be made or used, a false record or statement to get a false or fraudulent claim paid or approved by the Government; (3) conspires to defraud the Government by getting a false or fraudulent claim paid or approved by the Government;. . . or (7) knowingly makes, uses, or causes to be made or used, a false record or statement to conceal, avoid, or decrease an obligation to pay or transmit money or property to the Government,

* * * is liable to the United States Government for a civil penalty of not less than $5,000 and not more than $10,000, plus 3 times the amount of damages which the Government sustains because of the act of that person . . . .
(b) For purposes of this section, the terms "knowing" and "knowingly" mean that a person, with respect to information (1) has actual knowledge of the information; (2) acts in deliberate ignorance of the truth or falsity of the information; or (3) acts in reckless disregard of the truth or falsity of the information, and no proof of specific intent to defraud is required. See 31 U.S.C. § 3729(a) and (b).

VI. THE NIST WTC INVESTIGATION

44. In 2002, Congress enacted the National Construction Safety Team Act, 15 USC @ 7301, et seq.
45. During the time period relevant to this complaint, NIST paid for consulting services on the basis of certain contracts and solicitation and on the basis of requisitions for the NIST participants' reported costs.
46. Commerce Department is responsible for the administration and supervision of NIST. NIST, an agency of Commerce Department, is directly responsible for the WTC investigation program.
47. During the course of the ongoing WTC investigation, including especially the time period of 2002 up to and including September of 2005, the NIST participants have submitted claims for payment to NIST arising under their various contracts and solicitations for services and/or reimbursement of expenses. The NIST participants received and are receiving payments on said claims.
48. Cost reports are thought to exist that contain specific financial data relating to the payments made by NIST to the NIST participants.
49. All defendants are and were familiar with the law and regulations governing the WTC Investigation, including requirements relating to the submission of cost reports, accurate data, from either fraud or conflicts of interest and without violating the False Claims Act.

VII. THE DEFENDANTS’ SCHEME

50. The destruction of the WTC on September 11, 2001, was caused, in whole or in part, by the use of Directed Energy Weapons, consisting in High Energy Lasers and or other operational, but largely secret weapons that are, nonetheless, known to exist and known to have been deployed and/or deployable in the year 2001, before and after. It is also clear and apparent on its face that NIST’s explanation of the destruction of WTC1,2, issued in or about the month of September, 2005, is blatantly false, incomplete, misleading and fraudulent. As earlier stated, NIST first described its mandate, in words and substance, as that of determining what caused the destruction of WTC1,2. Then by intentional and admitted modification and narrowing of the scope of that stated objective and mandate, NIST openly declined to carry it out. That modification was at the behest and with the urging, backing and/or combined manipulative power of the defendants, acting singularly, collectively, overtly, covertly and otherwise.

51. Several of the defendants with whom NIST contracted for services in the preparation of NCSTAR 1 are, themselves, primarily engaged as defense contractors in a variety of disciplines, including, without limitation, very specific involvement in the use, development, manufacture, testing and or assessment of usability of directed energy weapons. In other words, NIST contracted with those who have the greatest familiarity with directed energy weapons in order to produce a report that sought to go to any length necessary to avoid, disguise, omit and otherwise divert attention away from the actual, real and intended destruction of the WTC complex by use of one device, namely directed energy weaponry, while pretending that the cause was the result of conditions that would be impossible based on the extent to which the NIST report, NCSTAR 1 violated both the laws of physics and common sense. By way of one example, NIST’s NCSTAR 1 report found no piece of steel that had been subjected to a temperature higher than 600 degrees C, and most had not encountered a temperature of higher than 250 degrees C; yet, NIST offered no explanation whatever for the visual confirmation that most of the steel of the WTC complex was turned to dust and otherwise visibly subjected to a destructive process that could not conceivably have been caused by the effects, combined or otherwise, of jet fuel, gravity and/or damage from jetliner impacts.
52. In point of fact, NIST, despite surrounding itself with contractors who are at the epicenter of that part of the military industrial complex that specializes in the production of directed energy weapons, in the dissemination of false news, so called psychological operations (psy ops) and who also specialize in public perception management programs, among other disciplines and areas of expertise that enabled, contributed to and/or facilitated the fraudulent scheme herein described and which has succeeded, thus far, in fraudulently presenting a false and misleading, fraudulent and illegal report on what caused the destruction on 9/11/01 of the WTC complex, and the receipt of improper payment in furtherance thereof.
53. However, on March 8, 2007, relator, Dr. Morgan Reynolds, caused to be submitted a Request for Correction (RFC) that plainly stated that the WTC complex was destroyed by use of directed energy weapons. Plaintiff, relator, Dr. Morgan Reynolds, in so doing, placed NIST on notice that false claims had been submitted to the government. Relator is, then, the original source of that claim and hereby reiterates that the WTC complex was destroyed on the basis of the use of directed energy weapons and all defendants knew or should have known this. Many of said defendants are involved in the manufacture of directed energy weapons as and for their primary business function.

VIII. FALSE CLAIMS AND FALSE STATEMENTS TO NIST

54. The various cost reports, requisitions, billing statements and/or requests for reimbursement submitted by the defendant NIST participants from and after 2002, through, at least, September, 2005, and, in many instances, continuing to the present, all contained false claims for reimbursement and made false statements to NIST concerning work performed by them and/or consulting services rendered to NIST because the true nature and intent was to mislead NIST and to cause a false causal statement concerning what caused the destruction of the WTC complex to occur.
55. Exhibit B contains the following information regarding the false assertions that jetliners impacted WTC1,2:
a) Complete, nearly intact penetration of the jet liner image into each tower and disappearance from exterior view, nose to tail (length of the aircraft) and wingtip to wingtip (width of aircraft);
b) Nearly complete shredding and destruction of the jetliner image into small pieces inside each tower;
c) Substantial aircraft debris exiting the building via each impact hole and the wall opposite each entry hole;
d) No significant deceleration as each jetliner entered a tower. In particular:
i) Flight AA 11, according to NIST, hit WTC 1 flying at an estimated 443 mph yet its tail section disappeared (767 length = 159 feet) with 0.25 seconds, implying a minimum average airspeed of 434 mph traversing the initial 159 feet within the building, an insignificant drop of two percent despite massive resistance from a steel/concrete building. A real jetliner would have encountered massive steel walls and steel floor pans-trusses-reinforced concrete floors immediately, as well as the dense steel core within 60 feet, drastically slowing the jetliner;
ii) Flight UA 175 hit WTC 2, according to NIST, flying through thin air at an estimated 542 mph yet its tail section disappeared in 0.20 seconds, implying a minimum average airspeed of 542 mph traversing the initial 159 feet inside the south tower, that is, airspeed did not decrease despite resistance by the steel/concrete building. A real jetliner would have encountered steel walls and concrete floors immediately, as well as the dense steel core within 37 feet and slowed drastically.
56. Thus, in that manner, it is clear and apparent that NCSTAR 1 is false and misleading, on its face and as a result of the particular information set forth above and in Exhibit B.
57. All NIST participants, defendants, knowingly filed or caused the filing of those false or fraudulent cost reports to get claims paid that should not have been paid, precisely because doing so resulted in the facilitation of the publication by NIST of a false, fraudulent and misleading causal report; namely NCSTAR 1, occurring in or about the month of October, 2005.
58. All such submitted cost reports, invoices, reimbursement claims and the like constitute false claims under the False Claims Act because the defendants knew they included costs that the actual cause of the destruction of the WTC complex was the result of the use of directed energy weapons.

IX. DAMAGES

59. The United States was damaged because of the acts of defendants in submitting or causing to be submitted of false claims, statements and records in that it was forced to pay the NIST participants for services rendered and related items and services that were all a part of a scheme to submit false and fraudulent information to NIST, resulting in the publication of a misleading, false and fraudulent report; namely, NCSTAR 1.

=======================

CBS News9 Co-Anchors Mike Buchanan and Andrea Roane on September 11, 2001

Concerning media coverage of the September 11 2001 attack on the Pentagon, the local CBS affiliate WUSA News9, whose parent is Gannett Broadcasting, can be singled out for its level of access at the Pentagon, degree of focus on the Pentagon, its over-emotionalism, and its non-professionalism.

Non-professionalism: News9 falsely represented that their cameraman was shooting a live video feed taken from a highway median on Washington Blvd., of triage areas in front of the damaged Pentagon--both implicitly,

Mike Buchanan, co-anchor (9:57am) This is just going to be raw tape that Dave Statter is just feeding into us.

Andrea Roane, co-anchor (10:04am) ...these are raw footage coming back, that’s our reporter there on the scene who will be giving us stories in just a few minutes,

--and explicitly,

Mike: (10:16am) All right, Dave Statter, reporting from the Pentagon. Here you can see from Dave’s camera shot several people being escorted out of the Pentagon.

In fact, military authorities, taking controlled shots of staged triage vignettes, operated this camera feed. In at least one case, at 9:58am, both Fox and CBS News9 simultaneously ran the identical live video, in which we see a single state police officer walking from left to right across the foreground, distinctively craning his neck to look up. This would have been impossible had News9 been filming and transmitting independently.

Fox, at least was more honest, when at 9:58am a female announcer says, “Do we control that camera? We can pan back, oh I suppose we don’t control that camera.”

The on-scene News9 reporter Dave Statter implies he is reporting and interviewing from that location.

At 9:58, Statter interviews a motorist named Michael Kelly off-screen as the feed sends images to the studio. He begins the interview by saying, “let me first describe the scene: this is the west side of the Pentagon, ah, the heliport side, off of Washington Blvd.”

At 10:05am Statter does interview two unnamed Pentagon employees at the center median location. The camera pans to him for two seconds and he says, “Mike, (pointing him away) why don’t you stay on and show the pictures over here and I’ll talk to the eyewitnesses. You can look at what is going on, the fire-fighting efforts. We have a couple of people who were in the Pentagon at the time. Tell me what happened.” This doesn’t constitute a minimum “establishing” head shot. This is supposed to be news journalism, but Statter doesn’t even get the men's names.

At 10:17am the FBI “evacuated” the highway area, and Andrea said “they are evacuating and moving back all of the news crews,” when in fact there was only one news crew, News9, privileged to be at that location.

News9 promoted the official narrative of an attack by an American Airlines 757, starting early, and repeating often, without sufficient sourcing or any confirmation, ignoring a conflicting report that they should have given equal weight to, then dogmatically reiterating the “fact” of an American Airlines 757.

At 9:41 Mike Buchanan and Andrea Roane interrupt network coverage out of New York with reports of an explosion at the Pentagon. “We don’t know what caused this.”

At 9:42am Andrea quotes “workers report sounds and a “rumble”

At 9:43am Andrea says “Now we are hearing the Associated Press is quoting witnesses as saying it was an aircraft that crashed into the Pentagon and that is what we are looking at from Arlington Virginia, our Gannett cam, at this huge billowing dark smoke.” (Witnesses? Plural?)

At 9:43am Mike: (aggravatingly) So we’ve got two planes that plowed into the world trade center in New York and now we’ve got a plane plowing into the pentagon here in Arlington! (It is less than three minutes in! This must be by design intent.)

At 9:46 Mike quotes the Associated Press, “he said it was a large airliner."...“I saw the tail of a large airliner, it plowed into the Pentagon” according to an associated press radio reporter."

(Neither Andrea or Mike ever mention the name of the AP reporter—Dave Winslow--the witness, not witnesses who sourced the AP news alert.)

At 9:48 Andrea conducts a phone interview with a credible eyewitness, Don Chauncey, who says he saw a white, “Gulf-Stream-type” commuter jet strike the Pentagon.

At 9:50 Andrea conducts a phone interview with Dawn Vignola, whose first words out of her mouth are: “American Airlines 757.” Dawn is being prompted in the background by her roommate who feeds her entire soundbites, which she repeats, sometimes incorrectly. When Andrea asks how she identified the plane as an American Airlines 757, Dawn says her roommate is a "airplane-person."

At 9:55am, co-anchor Mike Buchanan says, “Some witnesses say it appeared to be an American Airlines, 757” while co-anchor Andrea Roan repeats, “American Airlines 757.” Neither mentions the report of the white, Gulf-Stream type commuter jet.

At 9:57am, Andrea said “what observers noted, and those were in the airline industry, so we kind of take what they’re saying for, ah, at the word, 757 American Airlines, they could see the plane, they could see the markings, crashed into the west side of the Pentagon, near the heliport.”

(She can only be referring to Dawn Vignola’s “roommate,” who was described as a “airplane-person.” This is journalistic fraud pure and simple.)

At 10:04am, Andrea says, “An Associated Press reporter says he saw the tail end of a large airliner plunge into the Pentagon building.” The two are parceling out information contained in the 9:43am Associated Press News Alert.

At 10:04am Andrea says, “these are raw footage coming back, that’s our reporter there on the scene who will be giving us stories in just a few minutes.”

At 10:05 FOX News reporter Audrey Barnes, sets up shop several thousand yards north of News9 near the intersection of Route 110 and Washington Blvd. She has a view of the staged Pentagon mayhem (the diesel-fuel smoke pot) via telephoto lens. She reports that plane may have impacted the heliport rather than the building.

At 10:06am Statter says, “We are looking at here I believe I don’t have a monitor but I believe but one of the injured being taken away by Arlington Fire and Rescue.” Does he not have a monitor because it isn’t his camera?

(Does he have to manually look to see where the camera is pointing to infer the imagery?)

News9 worked to minimize errant or anomalous details that threatened the official narrative.

At 10:09am Statter reports, “I just heard another explosion of some sort. It could be a secondary explosion of some sort something happened but we just heard a loud pop just as you were coming to me it seemed to be on the east of here I can’t tell what it is, it might be something that is secondary to this because we’ve had a number of small explosions after the fire occurred.”

At 10:10am FOX News’s Audrey Barnes excitedly interrupts on-air to report, “We just heard another loud explosion.”

At 10:11am Statter says, “The reason they asked us to move back is because of course they are concerned about any secondary explosions… Again, I can’t tell you much more than a loud pop a few minutes ago that seemed a little bit different, a little bit different, than then um, um the ones we heard earlier, which were on the outside they could have been tires or something else.”

At 10:17 News9 reporter Frank Herzog says, “I think I can answer Dave Statter’s question about that secondary explosion, it wasn’t an explosion, that was the sonic boom of jet fighters that were scrambled out of Andrews Air Force base, we believe.” (Frank supposes two fighters were scrambled but references only one sonic boom.)

Daryl Donley says his famous fireball image wasn't of the impact, but of a secondary explosion, several minutes afterward. Statter does a disservice, referencing "tires popping," to questions about the causes of the multiple secondary explosions, which remain unanswered, even by the ASCE Pentagon Building Performance Report, till today.

At 10:18am Andrea said, "And we heard from Frank Herzog that boom that Dave thought he heard before, was ah air force jet scrambling high up in the sky, on alert."

At 10:18am NBC4 news reporter, interviewing Isabel James behind the earth mound at the Citgo gas station mentions three loud unexplained booms they’ve heard, getting James to go on record as hearing them also. James suggests "maybe gas lines exploding, I don't know," which is awfully ambitious for a passing motorist to hazard as a scenario.

Dave Statter and News9 worked to shield details of the attack to protect the official narrative, even sacrificing possible award-winning video.

At 10:15am Mike Buchanan says, “Frank Herzog, thanks very much. Let me just read you the lead, the Associated Press lead, it just came out of New York…first of all, let’s check in with Dave Statter at the Pentagon, Dave.”

At 10:15am Dave Statter says, “Ah! oh it collapsed right now, as you can see, I assume you’re taking our picture, I do not have a monitor, but right now we just had a middle section of the e-ring of the Pentagon collapse from the amount of fire and destruction from this, so obviously there was a great deal of damage here. It just collapsed we don’t know who was inside or how many people were inside.”

Mike Buchanan deliberately waits until the dust settles after a collapse before going to the live feed. Statter is like, "Oops! Just missed it! Sorry!" Having "missed" the live moment, News9 never played the tape of the collapse, although it should have been a set piece, played over and over again, until seered in our memories. This is further proof the feed didn't belong to News9.

The over-emotionalism of the News9 team, especially of co-anchor Mike Buchanan served to promote fear and anxiety rather than constructively allay it.

At 10:24am Mike Buchanan says, “Hold on one second, the State Department has been evacuated after a possible explosion or a fire, a senior governmental official speaking under a condition of anonymity said, the incident appears connected with the two plane attacks at the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, according to this source, quoting now, “something happened at the state department, we don’t know what yet, we hear it might have been a plane.” This…Ah… anybody, Frank or Rick or Lauren, can anybody see anything over at the State Department?” (long pause)

Doesn't this sound completely made-up? The "something happened" is laughable.

At 10:25am Mike Buchanan says, “Hold on…Hey Dave? (Yes.) We just got a bulletin from the Associated Press “A car bomb explodes outside of the State Department.” Being attributed to senior law enforcement officials, again, a car bomb.”

The Associated Press did issue this bogus report of a car bomb going off at the Sate Department--it was announced on several other stations too. Unlike the false reports of incoming planes, this report has no plausible explanation for how the mistake was made. I wonder if it was Dave Winslow again?

Andrea: Let’s go to Frank Herzog who is outside of the State Department, “Frank, what have you seen?” (long pause)

Mike: “Alright we’ll hold on for Frank.”

Andrea: Frank had been down at the area at the Washington monument….

Mike: (very agitated) “Let me tell you if you’re just waking up, this is not a dream. This is not some B movie, you’re watching.”

Andrea: “And this is not some Tom Clancy scenario, this is the real thing.”

Mike: (Channeling acclaimed TV newsman, Howard Beale, from the movie Network, “I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore!”) “This morning about 8:45 a plane crashed into the World Trade Center in New York, 18 minutes later another plane, apparently a hijacked jet, out of Boston bound for LA…crashed into the World… you see the picture right there…that’s the second explosion when this American Airlines jet, 32:29 apparently hijacked plowed into the World Trade Center, then about an hour ago, there was an explosion at the Pentagon, a plane plowed into the Pentagon at the heliport.”

Andrea: Look at this. (the first close-up video of a tower collapsing in New York plays on screen)

Mike: Oh!

Andrea: One of the towers, we had reported, that one of the towers had collapsed, here is proof…

Mike: (angry) Frank Herzog, where are ya!?

Frank: I’m still at the Washington Monument, I’m looking at the State Department.

Mike: Yes.

Andrea: What do you see?

Frank: Nothing has happened there it looks all quiet.

Buchanan goes on air with another bogus Associated Press report about a car bomb at the State Department when he had a reporter stationed nearby who could have easily checked out the report, but he didn't. Then, for some unknown reason, the reporter is MIA, so we are left dangling just as the first shocking video taken at ground level of a tower collapsing—a coincidence? When it finally comes, the reporter's reassurance can’t stop the adrenaline rush. Do the regular consumers of this tripe value all the added drama?

Everyone connected with this is damned as key co-conspirators before the fact, premeditating the murder of 3000 of our own, cut-in on the deal.

In contrast, FOX News reporter Audrey Barnes, is the shape of the new American hero.
