Reply #10: Yes, and what's more, SunTrust

[Minstrel Boy]

is another one of those funny Warren Buffet links to 9/11. Buffet's Berkshire Hathaway Inc is heavily invested in SunTrust.

"Dennis Lormel, the chief of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's unit conducting the financial inquiry of the Sept. 11 plot, told the New York Times that the hijackers moved $325,000 through 14 bank accounts at SunTrust Bank, making that bank the most heavily relied upon." http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2002/07/10/attack/main514687.shtml

Even more interesting: Berkshire Hathaway has a subsidiary, FlightSafety International Inc., a flight school at which one of the 9/11 hijackers is said to have trained.

Abdulrahman Al Omari "lived in Vero Beach neighborhood near two other men, Adnan Bukhari and Amer M. Kamfar, who are linked to investigation. All three took flying instruction together at Flight Safety International."

And lookee here, from FlightSaftey's own website:

"FlightSafety was also selected by Raytheon as its subcontractor providing the Ground Based Training System for the Joint Primary Aircraft Training System (JPATS) used by the US Air Force and navy for primary pilot training." http://www.flightsafety.com/about5.php

Whenever I see the name Raytheon, my tinfoil starts to spark. A leader in remote flight technology and deeply steeped in the military-industrial complex. Four Raytheon employees, I believe, flew on three of the sparsely-occupied 9/11 flights. After the attacks, Raytheon landing strips were used to shuttle the Saudis and bin Ladens out of the country.
