A timeline listing of crucial events both before and after the September 11th suicide attacks establishes CIA foreknowledge of them and strongly suggests that there was criminal complicity on the part of the U.S. government. One wonders how these events could have been ignored by the major media or treated as isolated incidents.

She lost her job, her career. She can't become a covert agent for Canada. Or Mexico. And just because she's bounced back doesn't mean she wasn't victimized.
