Title: Silverstein Think About Insurance Already On 9/11
Description: New entry in 9/11 Timeline


Shoestring - June 21, 2007 06:29 PM (GMT)
Check out this new entry in the Complete 9/11 Timeline. We all know that Larry Silverstein tried to claim the 9/11 attacks against New York consituted two separate events, thus entitling him to a double insurance payout. But what is less well known is that he was already thinking about how to get this double payout on the evening of 9/11 itself.

September 12, 2001: WTC Leaseholder Already Wants to Claim Double Insurance for Attacks and Rebuild
Developer Larry Silverstein, who recently took over the lease of the World Trade Center (see July 24, 2001), later tells journalist Steven Brill that he’d been so sickened by the destruction on 9/11, and by the deaths of four of his employees in the WTC, that he did not focus on insurance or financial matters until “perhaps two weeks later.” But according to two people who call him this morning to offer their sympathy, Silverstein soon changes the subject: “He had talked to his lawyers… and he had a clear legal strategy mapped out. They were going to prove, Silverstein told one of the callers, that the way his insurance policies were written the two planes crashing into the two towers had been two different ‘occurrences,’ not part of the same event. That would give him more than $7 billion to rebuild, instead of the $3.55 billion that his insurance policy said was the maximum for one ‘occurrence.’ And rebuild was just what he was going to do, he vowed.” By mid-morning, he calls his architect David Childs, and instructs him to start sketching out a plan for a new building. He tells Childs to plan to build the exact same area of office space as has been destroyed. In fact, Silverstein’s lawyers claim the developer had been on the phone to them on the evening of 9/11, wondering “whether his insurance policies could be read in a way that would construe the attacks as two separate, insurable incidents rather than one.” [Brill, 2003, pp. 18-19 and 39-40; Real Deal, 1/2004] Yet Jerome Hauer, the former director of New York’s Office of Emergency Management, had gone to Silverstein’s office on 9/11, and later claims that Silverstein’s primary concern that day had been his employees, and whether they had gotten out of the WTC. “Larry was absolutely devastated,” he says. [Weiss, 2003, pp. 374] Following a lengthy legal dispute, Silverstein will eventually receive $4.55 billion in insurance payouts for the destruction of the WTC (see May 23, 2007).

Greedy bastard.. and he's gonna make even more money after the "Freedom" Tower is built.

Yep, unless we can get him investigated first. This guy is up there with Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld when it comes to being suspicious in relation to 9/11. For example, Silverstein (along with Jerome Hauer) played a key role in getting John O'Neill the security job at the World Trade Center. It was Silverstein who'd insisted that O'Neill start in the post early in September (meaning he'd be up in the WTC on 9/11). Check out this 9/11 Timeline entry:

August 23, 2001: Former FBI Al-Qaeda Expert Begins Job as Head of Security at the WTC
John O’Neill begins his new job as head of security at the WTC. O’Neill had been the special agent in charge of the FBI’s National Security Division in New York, and was the bureau’s top expert on al-Qaeda and Osama bin Laden. [New York Magazine, 12/17/2001; New Yorker, 1/14/2002] He’d left his job with the FBI just the day before (see August 22, 2001). His friend Jerome Hauer, who is the former head of New York’s Office of Emergency Management, had found him the job at the World Trade Center. Developer Larry Silverstein, who recently took over the lease of the WTC (see July 24, 2001), had been highly impressed with O’Neill but insisted he start in the post no later than the first week of September, when his firm Silverstein Properties is set to assume control of the buildings. O’Neill had agreed to this. [Weiss, 2003, pp. 336-338, 345-346 and 349-351] After hearing that O’Neill has got this job, Chris Isham, a senior producer at ABC News who is a close friend, says to him, “Well, that will be an easy job. They’re not going to bomb that place again.” O’Neill replies, “Well actually they’ve always wanted to finish that job. I think they’re going to try again.” [PBS Frontline, 5/31/2002] After a few days as the WTC security director, O’Neill will move into his new office on the 34th floor of the South Tower. [Weiss, 2003, pp. 353-354 and 366]

Those two are new to me. Thanks for sharing!

Hauer was a busy boy that day.

I didn't know about the meeting with Silverstein.

Hauer was one of the first people to be interviewed on the M$M, during the attack planting the Official Myth.

Hauer also found time to call the WH that night, to tell them to start taking Cipro.

Oh yeah, he also found time to ID John O'Neill's body. Hauer was the only one to ever see the body.

At a guess, Silverstein was crapping his financial pants on 9/11.

He was heavily under-insured on WTC. In fact he wanted to be even less insured, but the insurers talked him into upping his insurance.

In the end he just about broke even on the rebuilding cost of WTC7, and is well down on rebuilding of the main WTC complex.

Was Jerome Hauer the mastermind of 9-11? How did he manage to get on CBS with Dan Rather on the morning of 9-11 prepared to inform the American people of the Official Conspiracy Theory? :rolleyes:
Watch the video at this link.

Jerome Hauer knew the entire official story before it became public knowledge.

Jerome Hauer helped the official story become public knowledge!

Meet Jerome Hauer, 9/11 Suspect Awaiting Indictment
On September 11, 2001, Jerome Hauer was a national security advisor with the National Institute of Health, a managing director with Kroll Associates, and a guest on national television. His background in counter-terror and his specialized knowledge of biological warfare served him well on that day. Perhaps a little too well.

On September 11, 2001, Jerome Hauer advised the White House to begin taking Cipro, an antibiotic which is effective against anthrax.

Mr. Hauer's advice was not made public. Its value may have been underestimated at the time, but it was clearly demonstrated a week later, when the first anthrax letters appeared, and again three weeks after that, when anthrax appeared in letters to Democratic Senators Daschle and Leahy.

The obvious question is: Did Jerome Hauer know about the anthrax attacks in advance?

Strangely, perhaps, this is not the first time questions of prior knowledge have surfaced in Jerome Hauer's wake.

Jerome Hauer joined New York City's Office of Emergency Management (OEM) in 1998 and quickly obtained funding from the office of then-mayor Rudy Giuliani for the study of West Nile virus. The following year the virus appeared in the city, and Jerome Hauer led the fumigation effort.

Did Jerome Hauer know this was going to happen? Or did he just get "lucky"?

And how could anyone know such a thing was going to happen? Unless ... unless ...

Dan Rather: Based on what you know, and I recognize we’re dealing with so few facts, is it possible that just a plane crash could have collapsed these buildings, or would it have required the, sort of, prior positioning of other explosives in the, uh, in the buildings? I mean, what do you think?

Jerome Hauer: No, I, uh, my sense is just the velocity of the plane and the fact that you have a plane filled with fuel hitting that building, uh, that burned, uh, the velocity of that plane, uh, certainly, uh, uh, had an impact on the structure itself, and then the fact that it burned and you had that intense heat, uh, probably weakened the structure as well, uh, and I think it, uh, was, uh, simply the, uh, the planes hitting the buildings, and, and causing the collapse.
Jerome Hauer is certainly a remarkable guest, isn't he? On the very morning of the event, he had the whole thing figured out.

The collapse was simply due to the planes hitting the buildings, just the velocity of the plane and of course the fact that it was filled with fuel, and the fact that it burned and of course you had that intense heat which must have weakened the structure ... It's incredible, of course. It's also half of the official story!

But let's get back to the attack itself. Who did it? Who could have done it? If you were watching CBS that morning, you would have heard this:

QUOTE
Dan Rather: What perspective can you give us? I mean, there have been these repeated reports that, well, yes, Osama Bin Laden, but some think he’s been over-emphasized as, as responsible for these kinds of events. I know many intelligence, uh, people at very high levels who say, listen, you can’t have these kinds of attacks without having some state, Iraq, Iran, Libya, Syria, somebody involved. Put that into perspective for us.

Jerome Hauer: Yeah, well I’m not sure I agree that, umm, this is necessarily state-sponsored. Umm, it, as I mentioned earlier, certainly has, umm, the, uh, fingerprints of somebody like Bin Laden.

And that, of course, is the other half of the official story.

How did Dan Rather happen to have a guest with him on the morning of 9/11 who knew the entire official story before it became public knowledge?

Jerome Hauer was introduced to CBS's viewers as a former director of NYC's OEM. Strangely, perhaps, CBS News audiences were not told he was also a managing director of the security company responsible for the twin towers. And of course no one was told to start taking Cipro -- except the White House.

QUOTE
The twin disintegrations of the twin towers certainly looked like explosives-driven demolitions to many reporters who covered covered them live -- but Jerome Hauer assured Dan Rather and his viewers that it was just caused by the intense heat that weakened the structure!

The attack of 9/11 was of such scope and ferocity that it was virtually unimaginable -- except to the people who planned it -- just a day before it happened. But when it did happen, Jerome Hauer was able to contradict the intelligence experts and claim it bore the fingerprints of somebody like Bin Laden!

Jerome Hauer knew the entire official story before it became public knowledge.

Jerome Hauer helped the official story become public knowledge!

Funny that most of the cars that got fried, where in the area of West Broadway & Vesey St. The furthest away were some cars at West Broadway and Park Pl.

Sure made an effective barrier, if you wanted to keep people away from a certain building, ie WTC 7.

No wonder Rudy went to 75 Barclay Street instead. That sure was a lucky call.



JackD - July 18, 2007 01:00 AM (GMT)
what was lucky for Rudy is that he LEFT his fire commissioner Pete Ganci and others at the FDNY emergency station at foot of the South tower at 950am... and went to 75 barclay.

10 minutes later Ganci and the others were crushed dead by falling debris.

Which was a major violation of the mayor's prime directive according to the Emergency Plan that they were suppose to follow, which was for the Mayor to maintain an unified Command and Control with NYPD and FDNY.

If it was too dangerous for the Mayor to operate at the foot of the Towers, then it was too dangerous for FDNY and they should have moved with the mayor. Instead Rudy and Bernie left them in the dust and high tailed it to 75 Barclay St just in time to save their own asses.
