    Denial, I agree with what you've posted. FBI found no traces of insider trading.
    It is quite a complex issue so here is the link to one of the debunkers websites that goes through it in detail.
    The conclusion is that the airlines and US economy were in trouble throughout 2001, and puts were recommended by Steve Sarnoff (editor of an investment newsletter). Coincendently the towers fell the next day.

    I just thought it was interesting that a Councillor from Japan was brave enough to discuss inconsistencies in the official story. On the surface it does appear to be insider trading, even the Japanese finance minister agreed. An Australian politician would be ridiculed and shunned in our parliament.

    Qaeda financing - An easy way to find out who was responsible for 9/11 is to follow the money.
    Who financed the terrorists responsible for 9/11?

    (copy+paste from http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=20975:
    9/11 ANALYSIS: 9/11 and America's Secret Terror Campaign)

    The 9/11 Commission itself stated:

    "To date the U.S. government has not been able to determine the origin of the money used for the 9/11 attacks. Ultimately the question is of little practical significance.[17]"

    [17] Final Report of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States. (National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States: 2004), page 172

    The fact is that any comprehensive investigation, criminal or otherwise, should pay special attention to the role of financing; follow the money.


    PAKISTANI ISI & 9/11

    The CIA maintained close ties with the ISI during and after the Soviet-Afghan war, so they should have been aware of ISI's activities.

    A top Indian intelligence official stated that, "America's Defence Intelligence Agency was aware that Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) was sponsoring the Taliban and Al Qaeda, but the Bush Administration chose to ignore its findings."[44] Is it inconceivable that since the CIA maintained its extensive contacts with the ISI, and the ISI maintained and expanded its contacts with the Taliban and al-Qaeda, that the CIA was not in fact sponsoring both the Taliban and Al-Qaeda through the ISI as well? We know that the CIA was supporting the Taliban through the same network of the ISI that was supporting al-Qaeda operatives,[45] thus it would take a stretch of the imagination to think that the CIA would be unaware of its subsequent support for al-Qaeda. Whether direct or indirect, the CIA was supporting al-Qaeda.

    Shortly after 9/11, Indian intelligence became aware of the fact that General Mahmoud Ahmad, head of Pakistan's Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) had wired $100,000 from Saeed Sheikh, a convicted terrorist who had associations with the ISI, to Mohamed Atta, the purported ringleader and one of the 9/11 hijackers. Thus, the ISI in effect, financed the 9/11 attacks. However, there are several more ambiguous facets to this story. It just so happens that General Mahmoud Ahmad went to Washington, D.C. on September 4th, 2001 for a weeklong visit. On September 10, the day before 9/11, a Pakistani newspaper ran a story on Ahmad's visit. [46]

    General Mahmoud, having wired $100,000 to Mohamad Atta, the purported lead 9/11 hijacker, implicates the ISI in the attacks of 9/11, at least from a financial standing. The FBI even confirmed the transaction took place.[48] The ISI's extensive ties to American intelligence and the fact that Ahmad was in D.C. talking to high level legislators, State Department, Pentagon and intelligence officials begs the question of what the precise nature of these secret meetings were.

    As the Los Angeles Times reported in November of 2009, the extensive and close relationship between the CIA and the ISI has not diminished since 9/11, but had in fact, accelerated: "the CIA has funneled hundreds of millions of dollars to Pakistan's intelligence service since the Sept. 11 attacks, accounting for as much as one-third of the foreign spy agency's annual budget." Further, "the payments to Pakistan are authorized under a covert program initially approved by then-President Bush and continued under President Obama." Further, "the CIA has routinely brought ISI operatives to a secret training facility in North Carolina," and as the article pointed out, "the CIA also directs millions of dollars to other foreign spy services. But the magnitude of the payments to the ISI reflect Pakistan's central role." As the report in the Los Angeles Times explained, the CIA financial support to the ISI began during the Afghan-Soviet conflict, and has not stopped since then, and since 9/11, it has actually accelerated.[56]

    The globalresearch link provides a very thorough analysis on 9/11 including Osama and American intelligence agency's pre 9/11 war games. Some of these war games/scenarios involved a commercial plane being flown into the Pentagon, as well as planes being hijacked to hit the World Towers.

    The official story from President George W. Bush stated that "nobody in our government at least, and I don't the think the prior government, could envisage flying air planes into buildings" National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice claimed no-one "could have predicted that they would try to use an airplane as a missile". An Air Force general called the attack "something we had never seen before, something we had never even thought of."
