The Perfect Terrorist Plan To Level The Twin Towers Created In 1976

Our own U.S. Army devised a plan commissioned by Congress to bring down the WTC using commercial airliners and box cutters as weapons.

The laundry list of terrorist warnings handed to the Bush administration prior to 9/11 makes the President and others look like "bumbling idiots or a bunch of conniving criminals" responsible for the mass murders at the Twin Towers and in Afghanistan and Iraq.

These are the harsh words of Timothy McNiven, an outspoken critic of the President's handling of 9/11 and a 29-year U.S. Defense Department operative still under contract with the government.

He says not only did the Bush administration purposely ignore Al Q'aida in the months preceding the WTC attacks, but the situation is even more disturbing, considering his military unit way back in 1976 devised a mock terrorist attack of the Twin Towers exactly like what occurred on 9/11.

McNiven, who first went public in an affidavit included in a 9/11-related federal conspiracy (RICO) lawsuit filed against Bush and others in 2004, claims his unit was ordered to create the "perfect terrorist plan" using commercial airliners as weapons and the Twin Towers as their target.

The publicized version of the study, commissioned by Congress, was to identify security lapses and submit corrective measures to lawmakers. However, McNiven claims the real purpose of the study was to brainstorm how to pull off the perfect terrorist attack using the exact same 9/11 scenario.

The study, commissioned to C-Battery 2/81st Field Artillery, U.S. Army, stationed in Strassburg, Germany in 1976, specifically devised the scenario of the Twin Towers being leveled by Middle Eastern terrorists using commercial airliners and even plastic box cutters to bypass security.

To silence critics, McNiven has successfully passed a credible lie detector test regarding his participation in the study as well as other specific orders given to him by his superiors in case of a real attack on the Twin Towers.

The head of the 1976 mock terrorist plan was Lt. Michael Teague of Long Island, who McNiven says was given specific orders by higher-ups in the military to use the Twin Towers as the terrorist target.

McNiven said he has been unable to contact Lt. Teague, but was interested in his opinion now that "the 9/11 attacks happened the way we planned them in 1976."

"I remember Lt. Teague changed the scenario of the supposed study from a 100 story building to the Twin Towers," recalled McNiven, emphasizing that Lt. Teague was acting on specific orders from unknown superiors.

"He then said he thought it was very strange to be asked to devise a plan to blow up your own home town. But as I watched the Twin Towers really collapse on the morning of September 11th, I realized I was watching the very same thing we devised in the 1976."

Since that ominous realization, McNiven has devoted his entire life to alerting the American public about the similarities between 9/11 and the 1976 study without much success, his story basically being ignored by politicians and the mainstream media.

"Why am I doing this? Why have I spent every waking hour trying to bring this story to the American people?" asked McNiven, claiming he still is following a strange direct military order given to him more than 25 years ago.

"During the course of the terrorist plan we were devising, I made the statement to Lt. Teague that if the WTC was ever attacked like we planned, I'd go public. I was then physically assaulted and told never to reveal anything we were doing regarding the Twin Towers."

However, about a week later a strange turn of events occurred. For no apparent reason, McNiven claims his superiors completely changed their minds.

"I was given the direct order that if the Twin Towers were ever attacked the way we discussed in the 1976 study, I was to do everything in my power to bring the similarities to the attention of the American people.

"I have no idea why they changed their minds, but I was then emphatically told that this order was never to be rescinded - never - because those who would rescind it, would be the very same people who turned against the American people."

Besides taking a lie detector to verify his story, McNiven has made public a detailed list of about 40 names of those individuals who took part in the mock terrorist plan, including Col. Robert Morrison, Maj. Joe Dipiero, Sgt. Middleton, Sgt. Arroyo and many others.

"There were also people from the Defense Department and the CIA who were monitoring the study, but I wasn't able to get their names," he added.

Some of McNiven's most recent assignments with the Defense Department include work on the Northwest Drug Task Force and various other drug smuggling and weapons trafficking cases.

McNiven's Cover Letter

Greetings,

In this cover letter I will give a description of the different categories of documents posted. A summation will not be included; your participation in locating the Study's other participants is required to obtain their testimony.

Why should you know the Truth about this 25 plus year old US Congressional Commissioned Military Study to Improve US Airport and Air Travel Security? Without the Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing but the Truth about this Study you will not be able to make an informed decision if you want to continue to be represented by the Democratic and Republican Political Parties; since, after all "25 years is, a Quarter of a Century" and if the Democrats and Republicans were not able to act on this issue of National Security in that amount of time...

The first category is the polygraph exam results: Following the September 11, 2001 attacks I began contacting media outlets with my information about this Democratic and Republican Political Party Congressional Commissioned Military Study to Improve US Air Travel and offering to take and pay for a polygraph exam to verify what I had said about taking part in this Study was True, no media outlet accepted my offer so after nine months I set this one up myself.

Mr. Weller is a Retired Canadian Army Officer who was trained by the US Army as a Military Polygraph Examiner and the exam I was given is the same one the US Government uses; I met the US Government's Standard for telling the Truth and passed with the numerical scores of +16 for the positives and a +12 for the negatives; a +6 was required to pass. Included are the polygraph exam results, the information the exam was based on, my DD-214 (military document) and the FBI response (the FBI was my first contact in September 2001).

The next category is the People who have given me their support for getting this information into the media and to the People of the World; one letter from the Honorable John McCallum, Canada's Minister of National Defense, one from Carolyn Parrish, MP and former Vice Chair to the Executive of NATO; Daniel Ellsberg of the "Pentagon Papers", Stephen Schwartz, Publisher of The "Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists" and Michel Chossudovsky from the Centre on Globalisation.

Then a letter from "George Bush's Church" wanting paper copies of my information to give to Democratic Sen. Graham for the first "911 Investigation".

The Next category contains a few of the numerous (about 10-12) attack emails that I received that contained viruses following my posting my polygraph exam results on the internet the also brought death threats from those who did not like the Truth being told about them.

The Media /Misc. category has a few media responses one which says I'm full of baloney, another from Rod Gibson, associate editor of "The Globe" who when I had a phone conversation with, was only interested in publishing it if the Study had a name, I explained to him I was an enlisted man and was not told if The Study had a name; but he insisted upon a name or no print.
