These words are not my own, but the sentiment behind them is.
After 9/11, the answers came too quickly and too conveniently for me and for many.
2 days after this tragedy. I feel the same.
This dude made a videotaped confession and mailed it to NBC, but he FILED THE SERIAL NUMBERS OFF THE GUNS HE USED???
Think.
The only reason why people file serial numbers off of guns is to cover their tracks.
You can't trace the weapon, its origin, where it was made, who bought it, etc.
Why would some dude who would record himself confessing to a crime, and later KILLING himself at the scene, be concerned with covering his tracks???
Think.
Cho Seung-Hui's family was poor, and lived in a poor neighborhood in Seoul. One day, a government agent approached Cho's father if he was interested in winning a spot out of South Korea, to America. Interested, the father asks the agent about what must be done.
The agent tells Cho's father that research is being done in America about small children, but concedes that American families are not willing to have their children participate, although it is (theoretically) completely safe. The agent assures Cho's father that his son will not be harmed by the research. Reluctantly, Cho's father agrees. The agent keeps his word and arranges for the Seung family to emigrate to America. The Seungs relocate to America, incidentally, Fairfax County, Virginia, the same county that holds Langley (CIA Headquarters).
The "harmless research" is in actuality something more along the lines of MK Ultra (a state recognized program by the CIA that attempts to achieve total mind control through drugs, primarily LSD, and electronic signals). It goes on over a period of some time. Over time, Cho's behavior becomes increasingly erratic, but any protest about the "research" is stifled by intimidation on behalf of the government. The "research" performed on Cho damages him severely. However, Cho gets into Virginia Tech.
Cho is permanently mentally scarred, and traumatized. However, he is not totally cognizant of the research that has been performed, he knows something is not right. Memories of his torture come to him vaguely, but he is beyond repair now. He goes to his parents, nothing. He is convinced no one will help him, that everyone schemes against him. He writes plays with themes of a malicious third party.
He snaps on April 16, but not before releasing the video; referring to "researchers" when he says "You spilled my blood", speaking to some distant transgressor when he asks, "Have you any idea what it feels like to be humiliated?!"
Alternate Theory
The CIA has full control of Cho by the time he is released.
They need him to shoot up a school in order to further restrict weapons in the hands of the American public. Who wants an armed resistance???
Cho gets a call from the researchers early Monday morning...
I am not saying that what you just read is true, or is The Truth.
But.... I am saying openly and publicly that what we are being told does not add up.
A monster? Maybe.
But who made the monster?
Who helped the monster?
Who worked with the monster?
And..... who stands to gain from this terrible tragedy?

apparently there was another shooter from the SAME highschool last year.
if this is him...why is he in a marine uniform?
(lower right pocket reads 'Hu' rather than 'Hui')
apparently Fairfax County Virginia has aLOT of military/defense influence and recruiters..as did columbine.
....this may explain why Cho's sister works for the state dept. in Iraq
http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/articles/2007/04/19/1176696983487.html?from=top5
The sister of the gunman responsible for the deadliest shooting rampage in modern US history works as a contractor for a State Department office that oversees billions of dollars in American aid for Iraq.
Sun-kyung Cho is employed by the Iraq Reconstruction Management Office, according to US officials and a State Department staff directory that says she works from an annex near the department's headquarters in Washington.
Messages left on her office voicemail, in which she identifies herself as "Sun Cho", were not immediately returned today.
The Virginia Tech gunman was her brother, Cho Seung-hui. Thirty-three people died in the rampage on Monday, including the 23-year-old student, who committed suicide.
Spokesman Sean McCormack would not discuss Sun Cho's status but told reporters, "This person is not a direct-hire employee of the State Department."
He refused further comment, citing privacy concerns. Other US officials confirmed she worked for a contractor.
The office was set up by President George W Bush to coordinate the reconstruction program in Iraq and offers jobs to "highly skilled and motivated United States citizens" to work at the US embassy in Baghdad, Iraq, according to State Department documents. The office also has several Washington-based positions.
"Our mission is to support the sovereign, democratic rights of the Iraqi people to govern themselves, defend their country and rebuild their economy," the office says in its recruiting brochure. "This ongoing mission is one that is unprecedented in size and scope."
Sun Cho's current job is her third stint with the State Department, according to Princeton University, where she graduated with an economics major in 2004.
She previously worked as a summer intern at the department's International Labour Office and held a three-month economics internship in the northern summer before her senior year at the US embassy in Bangkok, sponsored by Princeton's International Internship Program.
"They were the most amazing three months of my life," Sun Cho told the university's weekly bulletin in November 24, 2003, article about the program, describing her experiences in the Thai capital.
"I found that the best way to get to know the city was taking the skytrain to random locations and walking around for a couple of hours," it quoted her as saying.
"I think it is always easy for Americans to maintain an American way of life abroad. The best thing is to avoid these traps and go out there and immerse yourself in a new culture."
The article described a visit to a border town where she saw deplorable working conditions for Burmese migrant workers.
"She said the experience was so profound that after returning to campus, she changed the focus of her senior thesis to a more labour-related topic," the article said.
what is the NRO and how close is it to Westfield High?

The Tina Ricca Murder
by Bonnie Hobbs
Excerpted from the CentreView (Centreville, Va.) 8/11/94
Right from the start, said John Ricca, the investigation into his daughter's Nov. 6 murder at he construction site of the Rockwell International building in Westfields was "shrouded in secrecy."
He received little information about how she died and nine months after her murder the police have still not found her killer.
Now, says Ricca, it all makes sense.
It was revealed this week that the Rockwell site where his daughter Tina worked as a security guard was actually a front for the headquarters of the super-secret National Reconnaissance Office (NRO). The CIA and the Defense
Department jointly oversee the NRO-which manages America's spy satellites-and its existence was kept top secret until two years ago.
On Monday, President Clinton declassified the NRO headquarters' existence, after many senators complained no one had told them of the project' s magnitude and cost. The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence was upset to discover the building was estimated to cost $350 million-nearly twice what they'd been told it would.
Ricca has little sympathy for them, saying they "only lost money-I lost a daughter."
Fairfax County Police Lt. Dennis Wilson with the homicide squad said Ricca's body was found in a temporary construction trailer not part of the NRO complex. He said police didn't know then that the complex was anything but a Rockwell facility, but said that fact has no bearing on the investigation.
But to Ricca, of Falls Church, it does have bearing, and "makes it even more believable why things have gone the way they have. It's making more sense by the minute why I haven't gotten any information."
Tina Ricca, 27, was employed as a security guard by Vance International of Oakton and had worked at the Rockwell site on Chantilly's Lee Road almost two years. She'd just been offered a job by Rockwell in Australia and was looking forward to beginning it.
She'd already finished her own eight-hour shift and was filling in for a co-worker away on National Guard duty when her life was ended by a bullet to the upper part of her body.
Police decline to reveal the type or caliber of weapon used or specify exactly where she was shot. But she wasn't wearing the bullet proof vest she usually wore, and both her gun and radio were missing.
Police have not ascribed a motive for her murder, but the ClA's involvement in the building, Ricca said, brings possible scenarios to mind. Perhaps, he said, his daughter saw something she shouldn't have. It also might explain, he said, why there was an approximately 2 1/2-hour gap between the time she was shot and the time Vance reported it.
"It gave the CIA plenty of time to destroy whatever evidence there was before the police got on the scene," said Ricca.
CIA spokeswoman Suzanne Wheeler Klein said Wednesday, "We don't have any information and don't have any comment on it."
There's also a question whether the FBI was involved in the murder investigation. Although FBI officials have denied they're a part of it, Ricca said he understands the FBI was on the scene before the police and later questioned some possible suspects. After the murder, he said, both the police and Vance had difficulty getting into the site.
If you've got the CIA and a real top-secret thing like the NRO," he said, "why in the world did they have one guard out there? There was only one guard on duty besides her, and there was supposed to be four. They should have had more." He also plans to contact the Senate, Congress and President Clinton, but doubts if, ultimately it'll get him anywhere.
Ricca said "If [the CIA] doesn't want Congress and the Ways and Means Committee to know what happened," he said, "they're surely not going to tell me-especially if they're involved in it."
Although police are saying the slain guard's body was found in a construction trailer, Ricca said they told him she was actually found in a blue, modular building. If she was in the trailer, he said, the other guard would have been with her.
He also said the room she was in had working computers in it, and he believes, "at the very minimum, those computers contained the drawings of the building, and that was top secret." Yet, he said, police told him when the FBI let them in, there was nothing on the computers.
To get through each day, he focuses on his job (ironically, he's a general manager for a construction company that's a prime contractor to the federal government), his wife and his children. (end of article)

The murder is still unsolved, and the Post is yet to write a word about it.
The building complex, by the way, has a quite high, secure fence around it. It
would not have been easy for an intruder to make it in over the fence.
