Naval Intelligence took big hit
during the Sept. 11 attacks 
If the official story about the 9/11 attacks is true, then al Qaeda simply got a lucky break when it took out a key component of Naval Intelligence with the Pentagon strike. However, as demonstrated in previous reports by this writer, the official story about 9/11 is a tissue of lies and evasions.

In that case, these questions are raised:

* Was Naval Intelligence's Pentagon command unit made a sacrificial lamb in   order to steer suspicion away from Pentagon conspirators? Or

* Was at least part of the reason for the attacks to disable Naval Intelligence, and, if so, why?

There are theories about this topic circulating on the internet, but this writer has not pursued them. However, eyebrows went up over the Sept. 10 statement by Donald Rumsfeld, defense secretary at the time, that $2 trillion in Pentagon funds could not be accounted for.

The Navy unit, apparently a command and control center for the Office of Naval Intelligence, would have had major responsibility for reacting to the World Trade Center attacks.

Following is a "fair usage" excerpt from an Aviation Week report, cited by http://wtcdemolition.com/blog/node/2912, of Sept. 17, 2001:

Vice Admiral Darb Ryan "was overheard reporting some of the initial damage assessment, which included spaces belonging to the chief of naval operations (CNO), the Navy’s tactical command center on the D-ring, an operations cell and a Navy intelligence command center. These included up to four special, highly classified, electronically secure areas. Many of the enlisted sailors involved were communications technicians with cryptology training who are key personnel in intelligence gathering and analysis. Some personnel were known to be trapped alive in the wreckage."

The report adds:

"Other Navy personnel confirmed the admiral’s initial assessment and said the dead numbered around 190, 64 on the aircraft. Among them was Lt. Gen. Timothy Maude, who was in the Army support and logistics section. Many others were Navy captains, commanders and lieutenant commanders with offices between the fourth and fifth corridors (the western wedge of the Pentagon). The Navy’s special operations office, which oversees classified programs, had moved out of the spaces only a few days before. All but one of the senior Navy flag officers were out of the building. Vice Admiral Dennis McGinn, deputy CNO for warfare requirements and programs, was near the impact area but escaped without injury."

Attempts were made to view government pages listing the Pentagon's 9/11 victims, but none were found. The following list was provided by
http://www.libertyforlife.com/eye-openers/911/pentagon_missile_911_vict.html

The list has the ring of authenticity, but can't be at the moment fully authenticated. However, two Navy unit names listed also appear in news stories, excerpted below, identifying them as Naval Intelligence workers.

Pentagon Employee Angie Houtz Missed by Many
Washington
22 October 2001

The weekend of September 8, Angie Houtz celebrated her 27th birthday with her family, including her grandmother and mother, Julie Shontere.
“That was the last time I saw her,†recalls her mother.
Angie had just returned from a week on a Navy frigate.
"She flew in Friday, drove to Ocean City, and met us at the beach, plopped down on that bed, and had a big smile on her face," says her mother. "And she said, ‘You know Mom, I had a good time, and I know why people join the Navy.’ She said, ‘It was that wonderful,’ and she said 'if I wasn’t too old, I should think about that.'"
Days later, on Tuesday, September 11, Angie Houtz, a civilian analyst with the Office of Naval Intelligence, died in the terrorist plane attack on the Pentagon.

Naval intelligence officer killed in Pentagon attack

September 20, 2001|
By Crystal Yednak, Tribune staff reporter.

A charismatic leader who delivered daily intelligence briefings to the secretary of the Navy and senior Navy officials, Cmdr. Dan Shanower was being groomed for higher positions, said his supervisor, Rear Adm. Rick Porterfield.
"He was one of our very best young officers with unlimited potential," said Porterfield, who is director of naval intelligence.
The Defense Department has confirmed that Cmdr. Shanower, 40, was killed in the Sept. 11 attack on the Pentagon.
