9/11

Kevin Ryan writes that "For many years prior to 9/11, two Americans were in unique positions to originate and frame the national conversation about terrorism. Those same two people, Brian Michael Jenkins and L. Paul Bremer, played extraordinary roles related to aviation security and World Trade Center (WTC) security in the few years before the 9/11 attacks. Could Bremer and Jenkins have been front men for a program that hyped the threat of terrorism while at the same time manufacturing terrorist events for political purposes?"[2] Mark Gorton writes that Brian Michael Jenkins is "an absolutely key figure for understanding the core of the 9/11 operation", noting that he lead Kroll's work on the WTC after the 1993 bombing and that he advised US Secretary of State George Shultz on matters of terrorism.[3]
