![]() "Very likely" , is a cryptonym for a psyop and gives more credibility to the propaganda, than "possible", would. In either case it is merely pure speculation. It could be "definitely" if the accused individual was psyoped into participating in some way. At what point does "free will" end and group psychological warfare begin? http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=free%20will http://www.ndu.edu/inss/siws/ch1.html http://groups-beta.google.com/group/...ae7464a8d35aca |

"The culprit or culprits may also have stalked (shadowed) individual Muslims known to ride a particular schedule. *No doubt this bombing was rehearsed to the minute many times before it was implemented, why not include a desirable scapegoat. *It all comes down to motive though. Who had the most to gain, or not lose?" Good question. Basically cui bono? "It could be "definitely" if the accused individual was psyoped into participating in some way. *At what point does "free will" end and group psychological warfare begin?

True, by psyoped I assume you mean mind control, whether noncoersive by propaganda or socially coerced to more exotic methods such as hypnotism, drugs, RF or EBS. I'd say in the case of the former the individual is responsible for his own actions, but in the latter it's questionable because he is being compelled to act against his will or is helpless to oppose as in induced MPD or DID, were another personality is invoked. |

![]() Basically cui bono? Obviously the people that stand to benefit from a continuing Palestinian/Israeli conflict which is just a subset of the struggle to control Middle-Eastern oil. Basically the status quo; which unfortunately we are all part of in some form or fashion. In other words we are collectively resistant to change and/or are ignorant of how to bring that change about. |

I agree, but I believe there are some individuals with more to gain,
than any of us by catalyzing the conflict. See the following research: http://thewebfairy.com/911/constantine/ |

There are usually multiple "independent" issues involved; just like 9/11. Here's one issue that may have been involved in the London bombings. It's often the boring stuff that people never pay attention to that's usually the most important. In this event, if not in every such event, the important stuff is INSURANCE. http://www.securityinfowatch.com/art...iteSection=308 Report: Private Markets Not Prepared to Cover Major Terrorism Losses Despite improvement in insurance markets since Sept. 11, major event could stretch past what government and private markets could handle BestWire Services via NewsEdge Corporation In a report on the insurance industry's ability to handle terrorism-related losses, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development warned that while terrorism insurance markets have improved since the Sept. 11, 2001 catastrophe, "there are continuing shortfalls in coverage," and private markets are still not prepared to cover "extremely large losses" that could yet occur. The 290-page report, "Terrorism Risk Insurance in OECD Countries," said that estimated maximum losses from a single large terrorist attack range from $50 billion to $250 billion. "The losses associated with very large-scale terrorist attacks can remain beyond the capability of the private insurance and reinsurance industry to price and absorb alone," the report said. In some OECD countries, a "mega terrorism" event could result in losses exceeding the joint compensation capacity of both private markets and governments to compensate "without threatening national economic stability." Given that, it may be necessary for some form of cooperative agreements between countries in the future, the OECD said. The report found terrorism insurance take-up rates are low in a variety of countries. At year-end 2004, about half of companies in the United States were insured, and less than 3% of eligible firms had contracted with Germany's terrorism compensation plan. "Under these circumstances, the economic and social impact of a new large-scale attack could be greater than in 2001," the report said. "OECD countries concerned should develop risk awareness and could consider incentives to extend coverage and increase the financial capacity of terrorism risk compensation mechanisms." The OECD noted that while chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear terrorism risks are generally excluded from insurance coverage and are not always fully covered through existing government-backed insurance plans, "governments should work with the insurance industry to find sustainable solutions for coverage." Terrorism is still a thorny issue for insurance markets, since it is highly unpredictable and more difficult to cover than other types of catastrophes, the OECD said. Risk modeling has improved for terrorism, but still "falls short of making the likelihood of future attacks more predictable," the report said. While financial markets may provide some additional capacity for terrorism risk, so far they have not shown much willingness to do so, according to the OECD. While the OECD advises member countries to "rely as much as possible" on private insurance markets for terrorism coverage, the group added that "government intervention may be needed to increase -- or maintain -- terrorism insurance availability at an affordable price, where private markets lack capacity." One way governments can help is by making changes in the tax and accounting environments to reduce the cost to the insurer of building up reserves to cover future catastrophic losses. Governments also can promote the development of alternative risk transfer strategies, the OECD said. The report gave a nod to public-private partnerships such as those established in Australia, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States as successful efforts to stabilize the insurance markets following large-scale or frequent attacks. The report suggests a "layered approach" to terrorism risk coverage, involving insureds, insurers, reinsurance, a coinsurance or reinsurance pool, and the government as a last resort, could successfully mitigate the risks. The OECD report was published just days after a much-anticipated U.S. Treasury report recommended the U.S. Terrorism Risk Insurance Act not be renewed in its present form once it expires at the end of this year. TRIA, passed by the U.S. Congress in response to the Sept. 11 catastrophe, set up a formula under which the U.S. government acted as ultimate backstop to any future terrorism losses suffered by insurers and insureds above a certain amount. According to the U.S. Treasury, TRIA served its purpose in stabilizing shaken property/casualty markets after the attack, but has since distorted market forces by slowing private-sector development of terrorism coverage and lulling those buying insurance into complacency regarding their own risk management strategies (BestWire, June 30, 2005). It is still uncertain whether Congress will heed Treasury's advice and refuse to renew TRIA. The OECD is a coalition of 30 member countries dedicated to democratic institutions and a market economy. Members include 22 European states, Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, the United States, Canada, Mexico and Turkey. www.thehartford.com/about/tria/ Terrorism Risk Insurance Act (TRIA) Although the House Financial Services Committee approved H.R. 4634, "The Terrorism Insurance Backstop Extension Act of 2004," Congress adjourned on October 9, 2004 without passing the bill. This piece of legislation would have extended TRIA through 2007 and would have expanded its scope to include group life insurance. As it stands, TRIA is set to expire on December 31, 2005. The effort to gain passage of a TRIA extension was supported by more than 2000 Hartford employees and agents throughout the country who took the time to contact their federal legislators. In addition, The Hartford worked together with the rest of the insurance industry and with our commercial policyholders to urge Congress to consider H.R. 4634. Though we did not succeed in convincing Congress to act on a TRIA extension before it adjourned, we remain convinced that a federal terrorism backstop is critical for the health of the insurance industry, our policyholders and the overall economy. Although Congress is scheduled to begin a brief "lame duck" session on November 16, legislative action will likely be deferred until 2005. http://www.thehartford.com/higfiles/pdf/TRIAlawSUM.pdf http://www.thehartford.com/higfiles/pdf/TRIAlaw.pdf http://www.thehartford.com/higfiles/..._Dealstudy.pdf http://www.rims.org/Content/Navigati.../TRIA_Info.htm http://www.oecd.org/document/3/0,234..._1_1_1,00.html OECD countries warn of continuing shortfalls in insurance coverage against terrorism 05/07/2005 - Nearly four years after the September 11 terrorist acts that hit the US - the most costly disaster ever for the insurance industry - conditions on terrorism insurance markets have improved.

Terrorism Risk Insurance in OECD Countries examines market evolutions since 2001, as well as industry and government initiatives to address the challenge of modern terrorism compensation. One of its main conclusions is that private markets are not yet able to fully cover the extremely large losses that could result from terrorist acts in the future. http://news.findlaw.com/hdocs/docs/i...tria112602.pdf ^ |

What it could amount to in toto is not just political but economic warfare as well. Note, how the financial markets were manipulated after 911. http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/illegaltrades.html http://911research.wtc7.net/sept11/stockputs.html |
