Part 1: The Mastermind and the Investigation

My opinion: PUTIN THE MASTERMIND

The official narrative of the 9/11 attacks overlooks foreign state sponsorship, the non-state actors like Al-Qaeda were merely “foot soldiers” rather than the true architects. The true “Mastermind” was Putin. It was his operation, one of the series of many, with the common contextual, conceptual, and operational patterns, bearing the traces of his complex political personality, including the traits of the Recruiter and the Uniter.

At the center of this hypothesis is the political personality of V. Putin, the true Mastermind of the 9/11 attacks. 9/11 is the counterintelligence error, with failure to monitor the foreign leaders closely and to try to understand better their motivations and actions, both overt and the covert.

When the advantages gained by Russia, Germany, and Israel are so obvious and dramatic, just like the general shift to the Right; it is more than just a lucky and random fruit falling in their laps. There must be a causal connection there, especially from the counterintelligence perspectives.

The two co-chairs of the 9/11 Commission, Thomas Kean and Lee Hamilton, believe that the government established the 9/11 Commission in a way that ensured that it would fail.

“So there were all kinds of reasons we thought we were set up to fail”, Hamilton argues.

My opinion: 
By “true culprits” I mean the masterminds and the behind the scenes organizers, not just the foot soldiers – the hijackers. 
It is impossible to take the “Al Qaeda” version seriously, and something more than just the elaborate, meticulously prepared in advance COVER.

Google AI: “The FBI actively restricted, delayed, or classified critical pieces of evidence in investigation of 9/11.”

(My Opinion: Under the orders from ABOVE, pushing their lame “Al Qaeda” version.)

The claim that the Bush Administration and Robert Mueller’s FBI suppressed the 9/11 investigation is a subject of significant historical debate, involving documented political friction, institutional resistance, and subsequent declassifications rather than a blanket suppression. While official investigations did take place, multiple independent sources and former officials have detailed specific instances where the administration and the FBI actively restricted, delayed, or classified critical pieces of evidence.

The true, in depth 9/11 investigation was suppressed by the Bush Administration and Robert Mueller’s FBI

And more than that: The views that disagreed and challenged the “Al Qaeda” version of 9/11 were actively and systematically suppressed by the U.S. Government and its extensions, which reminds the Soviet style of global censorship, and possibly a sign of Putin’s political personality.

Behind this were the Putin’s masked blackmail and the understandable fear of the nuclear war.

Historical records show that while the George W. Bush administration initially opposed creating an independent commission, official oversight investigations attribute 9/11 failures to systemic intelligence sharing breakdowns rather than a coordinated suppression of the truth.
Critics, including some lawmakers involved in the early congressional inquiries, have argued that the Bush Administration and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) under Robert Mueller resisted transparency, pointing to delayed clearances and redacted documents. Conversely, government reviews, such as the 9/11 Commission Report and subsequent Department of Justice Inspector General reports, concluded that the primary issue was institutional inertia and poor coordination between agencies, not a cover-up. [1, 2, 3, 4]

Summary

The institutional friction between investigators and the executive branch is well-documented. 
Rather than a coordinated conspiracy to hide the “true” architects of the attacks, the actions taken by the Bush administration and Mueller’s FBI are widely understood by historians and investigators as efforts to protect classified intelligence-gathering methods, avoid public institutional embarrassment, and preserve sensitive foreign diplomatic alliances.

9/11 truth movement – W


From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Supporters of the 9/11 Truth movement at an anti-war demonstration in Los Angeles, October 2007

The 9/11 truth movement encompasses a disparate group of adherents to a set of overlapping conspiracy theories that dispute the general consensus of the September 11 attacks that a group of Al-Qaeda terrorists had hijacked four airliners and crashed them into the Pentagon and the original World Trade Center Twin Towers, which consequently collapsed. The primary focus is what the movement perceives as missed information that they allege is not adequately explained in the official National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) reports, such as the collapse of 7 World Trade Center. They believe in a cover-up and, at the least, complicity by insiders.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

They analyze evidence from the attacks, come up with different conspiracy theories about how the attacks happened and call for a new investigation into the attacks

Alternative theories regarding the September 11 attacks—commonly referred to as 9/11 conspiracy theories—contend that the official account of the attacks is either incomplete or intentionally fabricated. While structural engineers, aviation experts, and the official 9/11 Commission Report conclude that the destruction was caused by four hijacked commercial aircraft operated by al-Qaeda terrorists, various alternative narratives have persisted since 2001. [1, 2, 3]
These alternative theories generally fall into two main categories of government complicity or look toward completely separate actors:

GERMANY’S STATE SUPPORT FOR THE HAMBURG CELL

The phrase “9/11: the missing link” refers to a prominent public theory and a series of high-profile statements made by August Hanning – News Review
thenewsandtimes.blogspot.com/2026/10/the-ph
My impression:
Hanning was on the right track with his “frequent” remarks about the role of the “STATE SUPPORT” for Hamburg cell, although it is unclear if he considered Germany itself in this role. It was a powerful opinion, at odds with the official version of the non-state Al Qaeda, and someone (the true culprits) probably did not like it, because it could lead directly to them. What followed, looks like a SETUP, the series of traps for Hanning, from his financial ruin (prearranged?) to his various unrelated private investigations which eventually lead to his arrest and current predicament. Now he is effectively shut off from the world and can talk only to his native BND. His former boss Gerhard Schroeder looks unconcerned about this, and, to the contrary, rather happy in his meeting with Putin: was this his birthday present?
It looks like the “STATE SUPPORT” for the Hamburg Cell, of which Hanning frequently spoke out, went directly from Gerhard Schroeder through his own channels, via the local Hamburg politicians, bypassing Hanning; otherwise Hanning would not speak about it so readily, risking to implicate himself and Germany.
The aim of this support was to help the future hijackers in their adaptation to the life in the western society, so they could fit seamlessly, inconspicuously, and unsuspiciously into the life in the US, while attending the pilots schools. At the same time, they were continuously “egged on” and WEAPONIZED.

9/11: the missing link – August Hanning – Google AI Mode: The phrase “9/11: the missing link” refers to a prominent public theory and a series of high-profile statements made by August Hanning, the former head of Germany’s Federal Intelligence Service (BND), regarding the 2001 terrorist attacks. [1, 2] Hanning, who led the BND from 1998 to 2005, has frequently spoken out about a missing link in the official 9/11 investigations—specifically targeting the logistical and financial state support given to the Hamburg Al-Qaeda cell, which included lead hijacker Mohamed Atta.

Hanning has argued that the hijackers could not have lived and operated so seamlessly in Germany without structured, domestic assistance that went largely unmapped by the initial U.S. and German investigations. [1, 2]

Severe Intelligence Oversight

The Historical Investigation (August Hanning vs. The 9/11 Hamburg Cell)

Following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, Hanning—acting as the BND chief—headed the German intelligence apparatus tasked with mapping how al-Qaeda pilots like Mohamed Atta operated undetected from Germany. [1, 2]
Operational Failures: The investigation revealed severe intelligence oversight. German authorities admitted they actually had members of the cell and their Marienstrasse apartment under surveillance in 1998 and 1999 due to a suspected bin Laden operative. However, the surveillance was abandoned when investigators failed to connect the students to an active threat. [1]
The Chechnya Pivot: Intelligence records compiled during the post-9/11 investigations showed that the Hamburg cell members initially intended to fight in Chechnya. A chance encounter on a German train with an extremist named Khalid Masri redirected them to a Mauritanian businessman, who subsequently introduced them to Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan, where they were recruited for the plane operation. [1]
Logistical Support: The intelligence findings mapped out how the cell utilized individuals like Said Bahaji and Mounir El Motassadeq to manage routine banking and university affairs while the primary pilots were away training in Afghanistan and the United States, allowing them to avoid drawing the suspicion of immigration officials. [1, 2]
The intersection of these two timelines created a massive political scandal in Germany, shifting August Hanning’s legacy from the man who investigated the 9/11 Hamburg terrorists to a suspect arrested because of a Hamburg police raid on his own home. [1, 2]

August Hanning and 9/11 Intelligence – Gemini

Germany’s former foreign intelligence chief August Hanning and 9/11


August Hanning served as the President of the Bundesnachrichtendienst (BND), Germany’s foreign intelligence agency, from 1998 to 2005. This placed him at the helm of German intelligence during the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

(Note: In a major breaking development as of October 6, 2026, Hanning was arrested in Germany on suspicion of espionage and treason. He is accused of purchasing classified intelligence documents from a former BND employee, identified as Manfred D., in order to resell them.)

Hanning’s tenure and his agency’s connection to 9/11 and its aftermath are defined by three major intelligence events:

9/11 WARNINGS ABOUT THE PILOTS TRAINING

#Israel: “Do not train the Saudi pilots, they will turn against you!”
#Russia: ” Do not send your Saudi pilots to Chechnya, they will turn against you!”
#Germany: “Send these moronic pilots anywhere, we don’t care; but not against us, we had enough!”

The role of the numbers of the well trained pilots in the military competition between Israel and Saudi Arabia: How 9/11 affected this balance? – Google Search google.com/search?q=The+r


The September 11 attacks shifted this dynamic by significantly modifying how both nations trained their pilots, and altering the structural military relationship between the United States and Saudi Arabia.

The number and exceptional preparation of combat pilots have historically formed the cornerstone of Israel’s Qualitative Military Edge (QME), a U.S.-mandated policy ensuring Israel maintains a regional technological and operational advantage. While Saudi Arabia historically possessed superior numbers of advanced airframes, it faced systemic challenges in building a massive, natively trained elite pilot corps, relying heavily on U.S.-led training pipelines. [1, 2, 3, 4]
…

The Shift from Rivals to Shared Security Concerns

Paradoxically, the post-9/11 era altered the competitive nature of Israel-Saudi relations. As the U.S. focus shifted toward global counter-terrorism and countering Iran, the perceived threat of a conventional air war between Israel and Saudi Arabia diminished. [9]
The two nations transitioned into a framework of tacit intelligence sharing and airspace coordination. This transformation became evident during civil aviation emergencies, such as the foiled flydubai hijacking attempt where both Israeli and Saudi air defense forces actively scrambled jets in a synchronized response to a mutual 9/11-style threat. [9, 10, 11] 

If Russia, Israel, and Germany are behind 9/11, here are their hypothetical motivations.
Russia intended to stop further unravelling of the USSR by turning the tables on the Western sponsors of Chechen separatists, including the US, Saudi Arabia, and other Muslim countries, by forming the anti-American Al Qaeda as the cover.
Israel intended to ignite the intense hostilities between the Saudi Arabia, other Arab countries, and the US, in the hope of benefitting from it, and strengthening the alliance with the US.
Germany, namely Schroeder, found the way to express their post-WW2 hatred for the US and to affirm their short lived, post-German unification gratitude and closeness with Russia.
These were the large scale, strategic, long term motivations and plans, with 9/11 as the “proper” action and the Special Operation.
The technical acumen of the Operation 9/11 points to the state sponsored operation, not the half-literate “Al Qaeda”.

All this is pretty much on the surface, and it does not require the deep digging.
What does, is the ease and readiness to be deceived on the part of the CIA, FBI, and other investigators.
The famous American group think and conformity may be the answers to this question.
And of course our universal, human, all too human ability for Denial and Self-deception.
It protects us from the Unbearable Pain of Knowledge.

At the center of this hypothesis is the political personality of V. Putin, the true Mastermind of the 9/11 attacks. 9/11 is the counterintelligence error, with failure to monitor the foreign leaders closely and to try to understand better their motivations and actions, both overt and the covert.

He is the consensus builder, the recruiter, the uniter, the builder of the geopolitical alliances and coalitions, including very much in the spheres of Security and Intelligence.
That’s how he put himself and Russia at the head of the anti-American Intelligence alliance with Germany and Israel in the Operation 9/11.

The political personality of Russian President Vladimir Putin is widely analyzed by political psychologists, biographers, and intelligence experts as an “expansionist hostile enforcer” or a highly deliberative, high-dominance introvert whose behavior is deeply rooted in his background as a KGB officer. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Political scientists and psychological profilers break down his political personality through several primary frameworks:

1. The Psychodiagnostic Profile: “Expansionist Hostile Enforcer”

Using the Millon Inventory of Diagnostic Criteria (MIDC) via open-source intelligence, researchers like Aubrey Immelman have classified Putin’s personality as a composite of three primary patterns: [1, 2]


My Opinion:
It is very unlikely that any documents on the true origins of 9/11 exist in principle – the matter is so sensitive and explosive. The plan was known to the very few people, presumably to Putin the Mastermind, his seconds, Patrushev and Bortnikov, likely, Schroeder, and probably some Mossad Chiefs. Hanning’s knowledge and tasks were likely limited by the Hamburg Cell. However, his ability to communicate with Russia and Israel, directly or via Azerbaijan, point to possibility of sharing this information and coordination. Hanning can disclose this and other information if he is given a good enough incentive in the process of further investigations.






While there is a verified historical intersection between Russian security agencies and a key architect of the 9/11 plot, mainstream intelligence and historical consensus attribute this to an operational failure rather than a collaborative overlap.
The connection primarily centers around Ayman al-Zawahiri, who later became the co-orchestrator of the September 11 attacks and leader of al-Qaeda. [1]
The Verified Contact: The 1996 Dagestan Detention
In December 1996, Ayman al-Zawahiri traveled to the North Caucasus to establish a base of operations in Chechnya. He was arrested by Russian authorities in Dagestan for entering the country illegally without a proper visa. [1, 2, 3]
#Russia and 9/11: Zawahiri, #Litvinenko, #Borovoy

While mainstream intelligence agencies and the 9/11 Commission report attribute the attacks strictly to Al-Qaeda operating out of Afghanistan and Pakistan, the testimonies of Litvinenko and Borovoy remain the foundation for theories that the Kremlin conducted a dangerous “double game” with the hijackers’ leadership.

Search: How did Schroeder’s Germany change politically and geopolitically after 9/11?

Following the September 11 attacks, Chancellor Gerhard Schröder’s Germany experienced a profound political transformation and structural geopolitical shift, fundamentally moving away from its post-WWII military reluctance toward an assertive, independent role in global security.

Political Changes: Domestic Security and Coalition Strain

  • The Proclamation of “Unlimited Solidarity”: Immediately after the attacks, Schröder declared Germany’s “unlimited solidarity” (uneingeschränkte Solidarität) with the United States. This was a massive psychological pivot for a nation deeply anchored in post-war pacifism.
  • The 2001 Vote of Confidence: To fulfill his promise of military support in Afghanistan, Schröder faced fierce resistance from fundamentalist factions within his own center-left SPD-Green coalition. To force compliance, he tied the deployment of 3,900 Bundeswehr troops to a vote of confidence in November 2001. He narrowly won, consolidating his leadership but exposing deep ideological rifts on the German left.

Search: How did Putin’s Russia change politically and geopolitically after 9/11?
The September 11 attacks served as a major catalyst for Vladimir Putin to reshape Russia’s domestic and foreign policy. Putin leveraged the global War on Terror to consolidate domestic political power and launch a dramatic, albeit short-lived, geopolitical pivot toward the West.
This period fundamentally transformed how Russia interacted with global powers and accelerated its transition toward centralized authoritarianism.

Geopolitical Transformations

The immediate aftermath of 9/11 marked a radical departure from traditional Russian foreign policy paradigms. [1]

In counterintelligence and intelligence investigations surrounding the September 11 attacks, investigative hypotheses primarily focused on state-sponsored orchestration versus non-state actor autonomy, the operational security (OPSEC) tradecraft of the hijackers, and systemic structural vulnerabilities within U.S. intelligence. Rather than viewing 9/11 purely as a criminal act, counterintelligence (CI) investigators evaluated how foreign intelligence and extremist networks successfully penetrated domestic borders without triggering strategic warnings. [1, 2, 3]

1. State Sponsorship vs. Autonomous Network Support

A central counterintelligence hypothesis examined whether the al-Qaeda network operated entirely independently or relied on the covert assistance of foreign governments or intelligence services.
  • Foreign State Facilitation: The FBI’s massive PENTTBOM investigation and subsequent congressional inquiries heavily evaluated whether elements within foreign governments provided logistical, financial, or intelligence support to the hijackers. This included intensive vetting of figures like Omar al-Bayoumi to determine if they acted as foreign intelligence assets helping the hijackers embed in the U.S. [2, 4, 5]
  • Financial Intelligence: Investigators tested hypotheses concerning insider trading and illicit international banking systems. The 9/11 Commission Report ultimately concluded that while unusual pre-9/11 market transactions occurred, they lacked an intelligence-linked nexus to advance knowledge of the attacks. [6, 7]

…

4. Systemic Vulnerabilities and the Intelligence “Wall”

A critical hypothesis evaluated by post-9/11 reviews—including the Department of Justice Office of the Inspector General—was that domestic legal barriers effectively blinded U.S. counterintelligence. [11]
  • The Information Barrier: Legal interpretations in the 1990s built a rigid “wall” preventing foreign intelligence investigators from sharing data with domestic criminal investigators. [12, 13]
  • Tracking Failures: The investigative hypothesis confirmed that this separation caused systemic communication failures. For instance, though the CIA and NSA possessed data regarding hijackers Nawaf al-Hazmi and Khalid al-Mihdhar, the information was not successfully integrated into FBI domestic counterintelligence operations until it was too late. [12, 14, 15]

…

The nature of these investigative hypotheses is defined by several core analytical focus areas:

1. The Operational Security (OPSEC) and Counter-Espionage Hypothesis

A primary hypothesis in CI investigations is determining how a hostile network operated undetected within domestic borders for an extended period.
  • The “Zero Lapses” Premise: Investigators evaluate how the 19 hijackers maintained stringent operational security over 20 months in the United States. [1, 2]
  • Tradecraft Assessment: Counterintelligence personnel form hypotheses regarding whether the operatives received formal intelligence training. For 9/11, subsequent investigations—including testimony to the 9/11 Joint Inquiry—concluded that the conspirators executed highly effective defensive counterintelligence tradecraft, showing no major operational slips that would tip off federal agencies. [1, 2, 3]

2. The Foreign State Sponsorship and Facilitation Hypothesis

Counterintelligence investigations routinely establish hypotheses regarding whether non-state terrorist actors are operating as proxies or receiving active facilitation from foreign intelligence services (FIS).
  • Logistical Support Networks: Investigators look for anomalies in funding, travel documentation, and housing to hypothesize whether foreign intelligence officers or diplomatic staff aided the cells.
  • State vs. Non-State Dynamics: In the context of 9/11, massive investigative resources were dedicated to exploring potential institutional links to foreign governments, specifically examining whether foreign intelligence entities provided safe passage, funding, or strategic cover.
