It’s no secret to the Quite Frankly audience that 9/11 was an inside job. Mountains of evidence prove not only the crime, but a conspiracy to create a new order out of the manufactured chaos. The future 9/11 created is obvious for all to see, but a closer look at the history which led up to that fateful morning leads to a stunning revelation – that one of the all-time greatest cover-ups of a crime was actually a cover-up of countless other crimes.
The financial aspect of 9/11 was allegedly motivated to conceal a shadow global financial system. The heart of this system is known as the Black Eagle Trust, a gold-backed slush fund which operates completely outside the oversight of national legislatures and regulatory agencies. A 2008 paper titled Collateral Damage: US Covert Operations and the Terrorist Attacks on September 11, 2001, by E. P. Heidner, is the culmination of six years of research into this subject. Readers are encouraged to examine the original paper, including sixteen pages of footnotes, which can be found here.
What follows is a summary of the paper’s key findings.
The story begins during the waning days of WWII, as Allied forces sought to gain strategic advantages in the coming Cold War. In addition to scientists and engineers, Operation Paperclip also offered asylum to German military officers who disclosed the locations of secret bunkers filled with gold. The name “Black Eagle Trust” comes from the black eagle stamp found on the gold bars of the Nazi government. The European loot, however, would pale in comparison to what was found in the Pacific.
After decades of conquest and plunder in China and Southeast Asia, evidence suggests Japan accumulated the largest horde of gold in human history. It exceeded 280,000 tonnes, slightly more than the entirety of the world’s official gold holdings. As their fortunes in the war soured, the Japanese high command determined that the gold should be consolidated and hidden away in the Philippines, under the command of General Tomoyuki Yamashita, due to the US submarine blockade of Japan itself.
Rumor of the stolen treasure eventually reached the Americans, and the task to recover it was quietly undertaken by Edward Landsdale, an intelligence officer under General Douglas MacArthur. After the war, Landsdale found and tortured Yamashita’s driver until he created maps leading to the gold. The operation was a success, and set a precedent for America’s barbaric way of conducting espionage going forward. Landsdale continued to blaze the trail, forming the CIA’s relationships with Mossad and America’s mafia families, and proposing a false flag operation to kill innocent American citizens and pin the blame on Fidel Castro, known as Operation Northwoods.
The existence of what came to be known as “Yamashita’s Gold” first entered mainstream consciousness in 1988, when a Filipino treasure hunter named Rogelio Roxas sued the former president of the Philippines, Ferdinand Marcos, in a Hawaiian court. Roxas claimed to have found a portion of the gold, which Marcos seized before sending him to prison for a year. The court initially awarded $43 billion to Roxas, in what is still the largest civil lawsuit in American history.
Of course, by that time, much of the gold had already been moved, and was serving as the foundation of a new financial system behind the scenes. Once Landsdale’s information was confirmed, the Truman Administration decided to keep the gold a secret, in part to preserve the relative stability of the 1944 Bretton Woods Agreement. Secretary of War Henry Stimson came up with the idea of creating the Black Eagle Trust to fund anti-communist efforts around the world, and William Donovan of the newly created CIA became the point man for distributing the gold to domestic and international banks. In total, the gold ended up being held in over 170 banks in 42 countries.
The fingerprints of the Black Eagle Trust can be found on countless covert operations, from the Bay of Pigs, to Iran Contra, and every assassination in between, but the granddaddy of them all was the takedown of the USSR, known as Project Hammer. According to eight sources cited by Heidner, on September 11, 1991, President George H. W. Bush used the trust to secretly issue $240 billion in bonds, which funded an economic blitzkrieg to end the Cold War.
Project Hammer consisted of the following four major covert operations:
1) Theft of the Soviet treasury
2) Currency destabilization of the Ruble
3) Funding of the KGB Generals’ August 1991 coup against Gorbachev
4) Takeover of key energy and defense industries in the Soviet Union
The coup attempt was an embarrassing failure, but it notably resulted in the assassination of Robert Maxwell, father of the now infamous Ghislaine, who operated as a middle man between the CIA, Mossad and the traitorous element of the KGB. On the other hand, the financial and economic schemes worked brilliantly. The Soviet economy collapsed, and the political apparatus of the USSR was forced to dissolve.
The conspirators behind Project Hammer achieved a tremendous victory in 1991, but they still faced two significant dangers. First, everything they had just done was highly illegal, and investigations were launched to figure out what happened. It was easy enough for the US government to ignore calls for transparency on the international stage, but its own Office of Naval Intelligence also began to follow the money. Second, the bonds which enabled the operation still needed to be settled, and as part of the normal settlement process, the parties involved in the bonds would need to be publicly identified. The bonds were set to mature ten years after they were issued, and had to be settled no later than September 12, 2001. Just 24 hours before that deadline, those two birds would be killed with one stone.
The attacks on 9/11 weren’t just targeted at specific buildings, but at specific offices within those buildings. The primary targets in the World Trade Center seem to have been Cantor Fitzgerald in Tower 1, and Eurobrokers in Tower 2. Both companies were responsible for managing US government securities, and each plane struck just below their offices, which were incinerated well before the towers collapsed. Any certificates for bonds stored in the basement were also destroyed. The section of the Pentagon which was struck had been under construction for two years, and was almost completely unoccupied, except for the Office of Naval Intelligence, which was moved there about a month earlier.
Later that afternoon, the Federal Reserve and the Securities and Exchange Commission declared an emergency for the first time in their history, even though their systems were unharmed in the attacks. Under these emergency protocols, many of the rules governing trades and settlements were suspended for two weeks to keep businesses operating. For this short period, it was possible to substitute the illegal securities for valid government securities, and to do so without reporting identity of ownership, because the offices of the primary securities brokers had been wiped out. Not only did the holders of the bonds not get caught for their role in Project Hammer, but they actually got paid off. Legitimately. And because the investigators on their trail were also neutralized, they have still gotten away with it to this day.
The information above barely scratches the surface of the evidence presented in Heidner’s paper, which lays out, step by step, how these crimes were committed. This blog post is intended to merely relay the basic narrative in layman’s terms, in order to facilitate further questions and discussion. The crimes were so complicated and so precise, that reading the full paper makes it seem as though the cover-up of the Black Eagle Trust’s existence was the primary motive for staging the attacks. When this piece of the puzzle is combined with everything else that’s been exposed over the years, the scope of the conspiracy becomes absolutely mind-boggling.
It was a massive show of force by the powers that be. It took almost twenty years for the world to have the chance to witness another operation of that size. It’s been said many times on Quite Frankly that living through the Covid pandemic was like living through 9/11 in slow motion. That slow motion gave us the time to realize what was actually being done to us. The worst crime of the last two years wasn’t the mask mandates, the lockdowns, or even the death. Rather, it was the brainwashing meant to cripple the human spirit. In hindsight and with this more recent experience, we can understand how 9/11 did the same thing. 9/11 shattered not only our innocence, but our perception of reality – it created a world so threatening that endless war and mass surveillance became perceived as the only path to peace and safety.
That phenomenon is too often used to discourage us when it should actually be our greatest source of hope. The real lesson at the bottom of the 9/11 rabbit hole is that it is not only possible, but relatively easy to get the whole world to do something. 9/11 proved that the power to manually create a new reality exists, and when enough people realize it, that power can finally be used for good.
