9/11 and wargames?
Last week when I was volunteering to help make signs for the Howard Dean rally here in Austin, there was another guy helping out that was talking about wargames that were going on on the same day as 9/11.
I did a little googling and found the following link.

Now, I maybe behind the times on all of this, but what's the deal with this? Have any of you heard about this stuff?

4. OH YES...Check This Out
On 9/11, CIA Was Running Simulation of a Plane Crashing into a Building

It was called Operation "Vigilant Guardian" Read all about it here:

Pentagon site that details the "simulated" attack on the Pentagon.
Look at the Model of the Pentagon with the debris of a plane engulfed in flames!

http://www.mdw.army.mil/news/Contingency_Planning.html

Washington, D.C., Nov. 3, 2000 - The fire and smoke from the downed passenger aircraft billows from the Pentagon courtyard. Defense Protective Services Police seal the crash sight. Army medics, nurses and doctors scramble to organize aid. An Arlington Fire Department chief dispatches his equipment to the affected areas.

Don Abbott, of Command Emergency Response Training, walks over to the Pentagon and extinguishes the flames. The Pentagon was a model and the "plane crash" was a simulated one.

The Pentagon Mass Casualty Exercise, as the crash was called, was just one of several scenarios that emergency response teams were exposed to Oct. 24-26 in the Office of the Secretaries of Defense conference room.

On Oct. 24, there was a mock terrorist incident at the Pentagon
Metro stop and a construction accident to name just some of the
scenarios that were practiced to better prepare local agencies for
real incidents.
