Jeff Killtown's 270 "Smoking Guns"
It’s quite funny how he takes the word of anti-Semitic, anti-American terrorists and supporters of those terrorists at face value:
243. Taliban rulers condemn attacks and says Bin Laden didn't have the means to carry out such well-orchestrated attacks (TCM News), Sept 16 - OBL denies 9/11 involvement in press release (Guardian), Sept 28 - OBL denies 9/11 involvement in 'Ummat' Paki newspaper, suggests Jews or US secret services behind attacks (Khilafah), Nov 7 - OBL denies 9/11 involvement in 'The Dawn' Paki newspaper (Islam Online),
WRH: OBL and his evil minions fessed up to the attacks numerous times later, when the revelation posed less danger to them.{1}
254. Mohammed Atta's father says Atta called him on Sept 12. (Guardian, PittsburgLive)
WRH: Mohamed Atta’s father is a liar.{2}
258. 9/11 - Alleged Flight 11 hijackers Atta and Al-Omari caught on Portland, ME airport security video (ABC-AU, USA Today), Father says it's not Atta on security video. (PittsburgLive)
WRH: It’s definitely them; all you need to do is compare the men in Portland, ME video with pictures of Alomari and Atta and the match is obvious.
The other ones I have already covered as of today, June 12, 2007, are:
10. Aug '01 - Raytheon and US Air Force successfully land pilot-less Boeing 727 using military GPS landing system that enables ground control to take control of hijacked plane. (Der Spiegel, Raytheon)
WRH: The planes were not taken over by remote control!{3} Apathoid[at]earthlink[dot]net proves this deftly in his scholarly paper “Remote Takeover on 9/11: A Critical Analysis,” hosted on http://911Myths.com, the website of my good friend Mike Williams, whom I dub the King of All Debunkers! :-)
16. Sept 7 - Jeb Bush puts the Florida National Guard on alert (WorldNetDaily, MyFlorida.com), Sept 10-11 - President Bush is in FL, state that controversially handed him 2000 presidency (Telegraph), 9/11 - Jeb Bush declares state of emergency in FL immediately after 2nd tower fell (WorldNetDaily), At least 15 of the 19 hijackers have Florida ties. (Augusta Chronicle)
WRH: Killtown deserves credit for not telling the lie that Jeb Bush enacted martial law.{4} Since President Bush was in Florida, it was only sensible to declare a state of emergency in FL since there was a danger of Bush being assassinated. So if terrorists operate in Florida without Jeb Bush’s knowledge, those terrorists are connected to the Bush family?
21. Sept 10 - San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown receives travel warning 8 hours before attacks. (SF Chronicle)
WRH: He was warned, but not about 9/11.{5}
45. Two week heightened security alert at WTC is lifted and bomb-sniffing dogs are abruptly removed days before 9/11. (Newsday)
WRH: This is one of the more ridiculous canards.{6}
84. WTC 7 becomes first steel high-rise building in history to collapse due to mostly fire. (Chicago Tribune, Stanford Report)
WRH: As is this one. Just forget about the unique circumstances.{7}
86. WTC 7 debris was removed without investigators having the chance to examine it at the scene to help determine the cause of failure. (History Channel)
WRH: The cause of the failure is no big mystery; see reference 7.
153. 1994 - US intel warned that terrorists might attack US using airplanes as weapons (CNN, CBS); 1995 - US warned of 'Operation Bojinka' plot to hijack planes and attack the Pentagon and CIA headquarters (CNN); July '01 - US and Italian officials were warned that Islamic terrorists might attempt to kill President Bush and other leaders by crashing an airliner into the Genoa summit. (LA Times){8}
166. Aug 6 - CIA memo titled "Bin Ladin Determined To Strike in US" warns Bush of attacks and plane hijackings in the US by OBL. (ABC, FOX)
WRH: The highly touted PDB did not warn Bush about 9/11-style attacks, much less about 9/11.{9}
178. Jan '02 - Steel from the WTC is shipped to China and India for recycling which has angered investigators, engineers and victim's families who say the steel could hold vital clues about why the towers collapsed and GPS trackers were installed on trucks hauling the 'highly sensitive' steel scraps away to be melted. (USA Today, China.org, ACSS)
WRH: I have posted on this issue.{10}
199. July '04 - Almost 3 years after 9/11, technology only now exists to enable cell phones to work on airplanes at flying altitudes. (USA Today, New York Press)
WRH: The phone calls from the plane were not faked!{11}
217. May '01, US gives $43 million to Afghanistan and becomes their largest donor two years in a row. (CNN)
223. Sept 6 - large put options placed on United, American Airlines, Boeing and some purchases made through bank which used to be headed by Exec. CIA Director Buzzy Krongard. (SF Chronicle)
WRH: The put-options story has been laid to rest.{12}
228. 9/11 - An elite Israeli military commando who understands Arabic is seated near all hijackers on Flight 11. (WorldNetDaily)
WRH: Was Daniel Lewin (R.I.P.) involved, Mr. Killtown?
239. Oct '01 - Donald Rumsfeld says in a magazine interview that Pentagon was hit by a 'missile.' (DoD)
251. 7 of alleged 19 hijackers are reported alive, FBI Director admits some identities are in doubt. (BBC, LA Times)
WRH: See my main post{13} and feel free to search my blog.
261. Sept 13 - Student ID card of Flight 77 hijacker Majed Moqed reportedly found at Pentagon, still able to read name on it. (9/11 Panel)
WRH: It was charred up but I have a post on the discovery of many other personal effects of hijackers and victims alike—including CeeCee Lyles (R.I.P.)—which shows that #261 and #262 are true.{14}
262. Sept 17 - Passport is found belonging to alleged hijacker who's plane crashed into WTC. (CNN)
WRH: Yes; that passport belonged to Satam Al Suqami, who fatally stabbed Daniel Lewin [#228]. Also found at the crime scenes were the identification of one of the Nawaf Alhazmi, Majed Mashaan Ghanem Moqed{15}, Abdulaziz Alomari, Ziad Jarrah, Saeed Alghamdi, Ahmed Alnami, etc.
264. Dec '01 - Pentagon releases poor quality video showing 'OBL' bragging about attacks and wearing a gold ring and watch which are forbidden in Islam, Bush Admin uses this video to vindicate US invading Afghan. (USA Today), Dec '01 - Osama bin Laden reportedly died. (FOX, NY Times), Oct '04 - Video of supposedly OBL admitting to attacks is released 4 days before election and gives Bush a boost in polls (ABC, NY Daily News)
WRH: Bin Laden is alive and he is shown in the video,{16} along with Dr. Al Zawahiri and Suleiman Abu Ghaith. There was no need for retroactive justification of the invasion of the terrorist base of Afghanistan. Killtown knows that OBL is a very pious Muslim, a virtuous man indeed who never breaks any rules. How does Killtown know it’s a gold ring, anyway? He just assumes it’s true, parroting the tripe of his fellow 9/11 deniers.
Here are some other preliminary comments I have:
173. 9/11 - Ari Fleischer claims that Bush received no warnings about the attacks (White House), May '02 - Fleischer confirms that Bush was told by CIA a month before attacks about possibility of OBL terrorists hijacking planes in the US. (SF Gate)
WRH: Killtown’s tiny brain isn’t capable of distinguishing the specific September 11, 2001 plot with the vague, non-actionable intelligence from the August 6, 2001 PDB.
212. Nov '02 - Dept of Homeland Security is created to lead the fight against domestic terrorism. (CBS)
WRH: Why is this suspicious at all? It’s a good thing which has helped to stop terrorist plots from coming to fruition!
222. Sept 4 - Robert Mueller, who oversaw the 1988 Pan Am 103 bombing case and the 1991 BCCI banking scandal, becomes director of the FBI. (FBI, BBC)
WRH: What’s the problem here?
242. March '04 - Madrid bombings happen exactly 911 days after 9/11. (News 24, Snopes.com)
WRH: How in the world does this prove USA complicity?
252. Hijacker remains from Flight 77, 93 hijackers were identified at same military base and by a 'process of elimination.' (CBS)
WRH: Exactly. There were no DNA samples from the hijackers’ families with which to work at the time. What does it matter that the remains were identified at the same military base?
257. Sept 10 - Atta and two Arab men allegedly spew anti-American sentiments and leave a Quran and business card behind. (USA Today)
WRH: Atta was known to be virulently anti-American. So if a known religious fanatic is witnessed professing his hatred of America and leaving a copy of the Quran behind, he must have been framed?
Eventually I will have refuted his entire 270-item list in detail.

One of his aliases was Majed M.GH Moqed, which stands for Majed Mashaan Ghanem Moqed. See also Monday, June 11, 2007: John Doe II on Majed Moqed by Will R. Huysman.
