            <text>I am the first witness to the attack on the World Trade Center,factually documented I witnessed the attack during testimony in a court of law in 1989.

I ordered the attack on 9-11-2001 to be stopped by contacting the proper authorities. I asked the judge to help have the building evacuated on that date. I told the court the legal represenatives were already involved in a fraud on the court and were not following instructions and would not follow additional information I was ordering them to do.

Factually documented in Palm Beach County Florida in written and oral recordings, in the 15th judicial circuit.
In front of Judge Edward Garrison while giving sworn testimony in case number 87-10396 AE, there are 9 witnesses
most lawyers who had a fiduciary duty to client and country.

I was being defrauded as were others which is a crime. Factually I got hit with a bright light and had pure vission and hearing. First I was wisked inside the plane.The plane was heading right for the WTC and saw the attack from inside. I then saw different angles of the attack,one where I am right above the buidings before the collapse.I saw the pictures you saw of the TV news.

I was angry and I told my lawyers when the whole world finds out one day this attack could have been stopped the world will come looking for you.I then made predictions of other future events that would occur in years previous the attack so they could not forget the furure.many of the other predictions have also come to pass and are now part of history.

A history you should know the FBI will not investgate.CBS,ABC,NBC,CNN, FOX, MSNBC,a number of senators
and congressmen were all notified and given the information and the names of the people responsible and failed in their duty as officers of the court.Mast of all you should know the 9-11 commission was notified and to this date writing you has never once wrote or called back.

Factually you should know I am no clairvoyant nor do I make money speaking to the dead.I was born and raised as a catholic,to me when I hear God did this. I can tell you GOD
did make a warning, GOD did try to stop this attack,he did send a witness,factually man or men decided to bet against him and me.

So I can say to all of you who read this I am Kenneth Keith Bottone, my mother,Rosa M. Bottone, and Michael James Bottone my father walked into a court of law to save  our name and tried to save this nation.I saw the attack on the World Trade Center in May of 1989. I am the first witness.</text>

            <text>The fraud in Florida still ocurrs and the state turns its back on it's statuatory dutie's.

I know the press in America is not free.
The FBI is not an investigative agency.
TV and cable is not free, and their news is not news.
I saw where the History channel can give evidence of a conspiracy to Kill a president and the news not blink an eye.A Texas president.I saw one steal an election and the people and the voice of the people be silenced.

I have given up on the world that the nuns in school told us about.Be honest, trust worthy,do your duty to honor and respect and you'll get ahead.

Lawyers are the biggest criminals and the lowest proffession.Judges turn a blind eye for the sake of legal correctness. Politicians should not exist in an age of instant communication.Money killed people on September 11,2001.

My faith in American People to see the real truth and do something about it is gone.News is printed in newspapers and there are no true American journalists.Truth is not in newspapers.</text>

            <text>Four plane's can be diverted in FEDERAL AIR SPACE and we spend how much to protect this country. Not one jet of the UNITED STATES MILITARY left the ground.


Lawyers and a corporation doing their fiduciary obligation to client and to their oath of their proffession could have stopped the attack on September 11,2001.

Precognition is a blessing from who ever your all mighty is! It would have saved lives, Factually.</text>

            <text>Flag wavers are gone,they are the one's who cut you off in traffic and give you the finger while doing it.

The Flag is like the cross it's symbol is never respected for the real meaning it is suppose to represent.


September 11 2001, was planned attack, you just do not know by who.

That's your duty to find out,for the sake of old glory,and for which it stands. One nation,under GOD,indivissable,
with liberty, and --------   FOR ALL.</text>
