Well, it looks as if the spectacle involving Martha Stewart is about to conclude. Just exactly how much money was involved in these financial transactions and exactly how many lives were lost because of it?

Please do not read me wrong here. I have no affection for Martha Stewart and could care less about her stock portfolio and just exactly who talked to whom about when she should trade her stocks. To me she is just another self-anointed liberal who believes in and actively supports the abject mess called socialism. But, perhaps that is why she is being raked over the coals by the never-let-the-voters-know-we prefer-fascism, Ashcroft Department of Injustice.

My point is; why is so much money and attention being wasted on Stewart when no one seems to care about the insider trading on United and American Airline stocks in the hours leading up to 9/11? Lets see: thousands of innocent Americans perished and property worth billions was destroyed while some folks with advanced knowledge of the event made millions and no one at DOJ or the White House seems to care.

An open and thorough investigation of suspicious trades before Sept. 11 could expose the masterminds behind the attacks by revealing who knew and profited from advance knowledge—if only the government wanted to.

In what has come to be known as “Black Tuesday” groups and/or individuals, who had to have prior knowledge of the planned attacks on New York and Washington, made enormous profits.

The Institute for Counter Terrorism (ICT), located in Herzliya, Israel, published an article, “Black Tuesday: World’s Largest Insider Trading Scam?” on Sept. 19, 2001.

Author, Don Radlauer, writing just over a week after the attacks of 9/11, explains in great detail the scope and details of what had to happen—and what the inside traders had to know to reap such huge profits from those attacks.

Most damning of all is Radlauer’s conclusions.

“Assuming that investigators are convinced that trades were made based upon advance knowledge of the attacks, they will obviously try to trace these trades back to determine who initiated them.  Obviously, anyone who had detailed knowledge of the attacks before they happened was, at the very least, an accessory to their planning; and the overwhelming probability is that the trades could have been made only by the same people who masterminded the attacks themselves.

The difficulty, of course, will be in tracing the transactions to their real source.  The trading is sure to have been done under false names, behind shell corporations, and in general to have been thoroughly obfuscated.  If in fact the Black Tuesday attacks -- and the associated securities transactions -- were made under orders from Osama bin Laden, then we are dealing with an expert in masking ownership of corporations and making covert deals.”

In what would be obvious to even Barney Fife, the determination of who placed these stock options on the several companies involved in 9/11 would most certainly be key in finding the mastermind(s) behind the attacks.

But, perhaps our intelligence branches that cost the U.S. Taxpayer some 40 billion each year have been too busy in the last 2 ½ years searching for “yellow cake” in Nigeria and imprisoning innocent folks while protecting their criminal informants.

If that is true, then just who is wasting time and money prosecuting good ole Martha Stewart—and better yet—why?
