    Also, forget about the massive amount of puts that were purchased against the only two airlines involved in the hijackings just days before the attack.

    Oh, and forget about the fact that the building owner profited $300 million by purchasing an exorbitant insurance package after buying the building only nine months before.

    Also, definitely forget that Building 7 and the section of the Pentagon that was targeted were housing all the personnel and evidence involved in the biggest financial crimes investigation of the century.

      Oh and don’t forget to forget that a large number of agencies that were the ones to deal with that emergency just so happened to be wargaming something very close to the unprecedented event that actually happened that same day: dealing with a terrorist attack that uses airplanes as missiles and flies them into buildings.

      NORAD was one of them. Iirc NY firefighters were another.

      To be fair if you just bought a building that was a target of a terror attacker just a few years earlier it does make sense to purchase an insurance policy

        That’s blatantly not true. One of the journalists involved with the Panama Papers died in a car bombing shortly after the Panama Papers were released. That happened.
