Former Head Of Star Wars Program Says Cheney Main 9/11
Suspect

Official version of events a conspiracy theory, says
drills were cover for attacks

Paul Joseph Watson & Alex Jones/Prison Planet.com |
April 4 2006

The former head of the Star Wars missile defense
program under Presidents Ford and Carter has gone
public to say that the official version of 9/11 is a
conspiracy theory and his main suspect for the
architect of the attack is Vice President Dick Cheney.

Dr. Robert M. Bowman, Lt. Col., USAF, ret. flew 101
combat missions in Vietnam. He is the recipient of the
Eisenhower Medal, the George F. Kennan Peace Prize,
the President's Medal of Veterans for Peace, the
Society of Military Engineers Gold Medal (twice), six
Air Medals, and dozens of other awards and honors. His
Ph.D. is in Aeronautics and Nuclear Engineering from
Caltech. He chaired 8 major international conferences,
and is one of the country's foremost experts on
National Security.

Bowman worked secretly for the US government on the
Star Wars project and was the first to coin the very
term in a 1977 secret memo. After Bowman realized that
the program was only ever intended to be used as an
aggressive and not defensive tool, as part of a plan
to initiate a nuclear war with the Soviets, he left
the program and campaigned against it.

In an interview with The Alex Jones Show aired
nationally on the GCN Radio Network, Bowman (pictured
below) stated that at the bare minimum if Osama bin
Laden and Al-Qaeda were involved in 9/11 then the
government stood down and allowed the attacks to
happen. He said it is plausible that the entire chain
of military command were unaware of what was taking
place and were used as tools by the people pulling the
strings behind the attack.

Bowman outlined how the drills on the morning of 9/11
that simulated planes crashing into buildings on the
east coast were used as a cover to dupe unwitting air
defense personnel into not responding quickly enough
to stop the attack.

"The exercises that went on that morning simulating
the exact kind of thing that was happening so confused
the people in the FAA and NORAD....that they didn't
they didn't know what was real and what was part of
the exercise," said Bowman

"I think the people who planned and carried out those
exercises, they're the ones that should be the object
of investigation."

Asked if he could name a prime suspect who was the
likely architect behind the attacks, Bowman stated,
"If I had to narrow it down to one person....I think
my prime suspect would be Dick Cheney."

Bowman said that privately his military fighter pilot
peers and colleagues did not disagree with his
sentiments about the real story behind 9/11.

Bowman agreed that the US was in danger of slipping
into a dictatorship and stated, "I think there's been
nothing closer to fascism than what we've seen lately
from this government."

Bowman slammed the Patriot Act as having, "Done more
to destroy the rights of Americans than all of our
enemies combined."

Bowman trashed the 9/11 Commission as a politically
motivated cover-up with abounding conflicts of
interest, charging, "The 9/11 Commission omitted
anything that might be the least bit suspicious or
embarrassing or in any way detract from the official
conspiracy so it was a total whitewash."

"There needs to be a true investigation, not the kind
of sham investigations we have had with the 9/11
omission and all the rest of that junk," said Bowman.

Asked if the perpetrators of 9/11 were preparing to
stage another false-flag attack to reinvigorate their
agenda Bowman agreed that, "I can see that and I hope
they can't pull it off, I hope they are prevented from
pulling it off but I know darn good and well they'd
like to have another one."

A mainstay of the attack pieces against Charlie Sheen
have been that he is not credible enough to speak on
the topic of 9/11. These charges are ridiculed by the
fact that Sheen is an expert on 9/11 who spends hours
a day meticulously researching the topic, something
that the attack dogs have failed to do, aiming their
comments solely at Sheen's personal life and ignoring
his invitation to challenge him on the facts.

In addition, from the very start we have put forth
eminently credible individuals only for them to be
ignored by the establishment media. Physics
Professors, former White House advisors and CIA
analysts, the father of Reaganomics, German Defense
Ministers and Bush's former Secretary of the Treasury,
have all gone public on 9/11 but have been uniformly
ignored by the majority of the establishment press.

Will Robert Bowman also be blackballed as the
mainstream continue to misrepresent the 9/11 truth
movement as an occupation of the fringe minority?

Bowman is currently running for Congress in Florida's
15th District.

1. I listened to this interview
Why can't someone with his credibility get any coverage beyond the Alex Jones show? I would suspect that most people on this board would regard this guy as a hero. He led the "Star Wars" research team during the early Ford/Carter years and left it when research showed that it could only be used offensively.

He was the lone in-the-know voice speaking out against Star Wars in the early 80's. He gave hundreds of speeches and endured much ridicule and scorn. Now, he steps out as a whistleblower again and is ignored by mainstream Democrats. Anyone hear think he will get much help from the Democratic Party powers-that-be in his Congressional race? I think not.

4. I know, I heard Nancy Pelosi say
that no matter what it is wrong to hit a police officer, they don't even know for sure what happened! WHY are the democrats so afraid to speak out?? Oh, I guess what is happening to McKinney is why they are afraid to speak out...

3. Wise words from Dr. Robert M. Bowman, Lt. Col., USAF, ret

...
Not one weapon in our vast arsenal can shield us from a nuclear weapon delivered in a sailboat or a Piper Cub or a suitcase or a Ryder rental truck. Not a penny of the 273 billion dollars a year we spend on so-called defense can actually defend us against a terrorist bomb. Nothing in our enormous military establishment can actually give us one whit of security. That is a military fact.

Edit: I actaully agree with everything in this 1998 article, but it's a little ironic that he thought a Piper Cub could not be stopped from delivering a bomb in 1998, but in 2001 the government had to be complict for essentially the same thing to happen.

5. A weapon in a Ryder rental truck?
You know the WTC had freight elevators that you could ride a Ryder Truck into. Makes a perfect weapons delivery system. Stop the thing on the desired floor and shut the elevator down for repairs. Then BOOM!

6. great paragraph
" The former head of the Star Wars missile defense

He summed up in 2 paragraphs my exact feelings about the staged-events that happened on 9/11.
