Putin Putsch of Sept. 1999 - The Russian 9/11
Incredibly, a number of major Russian mainstream/tabloid sites that normally favor Putin are suddenly linking to the following, well documented site:

http://eng.terror99.ru/explosions/

Sept. 1999: five bombings kill 300 in Moscow. Blamed on Chechens. State rounds up 1,000 suspects, curtails civil liberties, launches new war in Chechnya. Obscure new PM Vladimir Putin (former KGB) turns into a demigod overnight. Is given full rein to "solve" country's crisis. Soon pushes Yeltsin aside to become president.

Already then, strong evidence pointed to FSB as originator of attacks - two agents were caught planting the sixth bomb! Exiled oligarch Beresovsky and renegade FSB agents have since come out with public disclosures.

Everyone should bone up on it. The Russian Reichstag Fire is very well documented. Excuse me if it sounds cynical: It lacked the spectacular "production values" of 9/11 but otherwise we see many parallels.

As a way of breaking the ice with Americans who doubt 9/11 could be an inside job, tell them about the Putin putsch. It is very recent (the regime it spawned is still going), outside the U.S. (by citing it you show you are not simply "anti-American"), credible, and news to most people who hear it.

Even if it happened among godless commies (actually, our "invaluable allies in the War on Terror"), it shows how normal inside-job terror is. And being so recent, it may well have served as a model or study case for 9/11 itself! It shows how one could get away with a really obvious coup-by-false-flag-terror.

The context is similar, if miniature: Russian power elite sees huge complex crisis, needs a terrible swift sword to mobilize human resources and justify all drastic measures. (In our struggle we need to demonstrate what a crisis the U.S. power elite is in - the world crisis itself - to show the motive for 9/11.) In Russia, relatively clumsy state and media successfully transfered the fear and anger generated by the attacks to the designated perpetrators, even though some of the real perpetrators were caught red-handed! No wonder it could work in the U.S., too.

Few who are presented with the evidence deny it, or cry "conspiracy theory." In fact, people seem to be blase about it being an inside job, even Russians - where are the 1,001 sites about Sept. 1999?

You can ask people: why do you accept this is possible in Russia (aha! evil KGB! evil!) but "unthinkable" in the U.S.? Why? Because our clandestine services are so noble by comparison?
