This is extremely unlikely. There are no factual errors in Richard A. Clarke's book. Mr Clarke definitely intended this to be a revelation.

NOTE: A WARRIOR attacks, while a GUARDIAN guards.

I would suggest that when Myers said this, it was a slip of the tongue --much like when Rumsfeld said that the Pentagon was hit by a missile.

Myers was actually divulging the name of the attack operation against the World Trade Center on 9/11. This attack "exercise" involved remote-control operated Boeing 767's that were being monitored THE ENTIRE TIME by military flight monitors. The crashes were computer-controlled. Computerized collisions were decided upon by the U.S. military because computer-controlled collisions left no room for human error.

This was a modern-day version of the Operation Northwoods project that was presented to President John F. Kennedy to justify an invasion of Cuba.


The National Security Archive has posted the following online here http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/news/20010430/index.html :


April 30, 2001

In his new exposé of the National Security Agency entitled Body of Secrets, author James Bamford highlights a set of proposals on Cuba by the Joint Chiefs of Staff codenamed OPERATION NORTHWOODS. This document, titled “Justification for U.S. Military Intervention in Cuba” was provided by the JCS to Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara on March 13, 1962, as the key component of Northwoods. Written in response to a request from the Chief of the Cuba Project, Col. Edward Lansdale, the Top Secret memorandum describes U.S. plans to covertly engineer various pretexts that would justify a U.S. invasion of Cuba. These proposals - part of a secret anti-Castro program known as Operation Mongoose - included staging the assassinations of Cubans living in the United States, developing a fake “Communist Cuban terror campaign in the Miami area, in other Florida cities and even in Washington,” including “sink[ing] a boatload of Cuban refugees (real or simulated),” faking a Cuban airforce attack on a civilian jetliner, and concocting a “Remember the Maine” incident by blowing up a U.S. ship in Cuban waters and then blaming the incident on Cuban sabotage. Bamford himself writes that Operation Northwoods “may be the most corrupt plan ever created by the U.S. government.”

The actual documents of the Operation Northwoods project, now declassified, can be viewed here: http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/news/20010430/northwoods.pdf

Both Vigilant Warrior and the Operation Northwoods project were military exercises that also emulated "the Gleiwitz incident"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gleiwitz_incident that Adolf Hitler used to justify the invasion of Poland, an event that has since become universally regarded as the beginning of World War II. As stated, Operation Northwoods was never carried out. Gleiwitz was carried out.

The logic behind this strategy from a military perspective is really quite simple: Since any nation of people will naturally object to going to war during peacetime, the strategy of the ruler who wants to initiate a military campaign is to convince the people that they are under attack. Once the people perceive that they are under attack, they will willingly participate in a military campaign. Due to the simple logic of this strategy from a military perspective, it is also extremely likely that it was employed at other times in the past by other rulers, and that this information was kept secret.

The same end result of rallying the people around the flag is achieved from a military perspective when an adversary or a potential adversary is provoked to attack so that a war campaign can be initiated to destroy that adversary. This is what happened during Pearl Harbor.

President Roosevelt, the United States Department of the Navy, and the Secretary of State of the United States all knew that Japan was about to attack, yet they deliberately failed to warn the people of Hawaii or the military commanders stationed in Hawaii. They had even intercepted coded messages from the Japanese Imperial Palace to the Japanese Navy ordering the attack. But Roosevelt and the Navy deliberately and intentionally failed to head off the attack because they knew that once Japan attacked, the United States could enter the war against Adolf Hitler in Germany.

The "logic" behind allowing Peal Harbor to take place was to convince the American people to initiate a military campaign against Adolf Hitler in Europe. Up until that time, most Americans felt that because Hitler's campaign was being waged "over there" --against Europe, it did not concern them. Before Pearl Harbor, most Americans did not want to go to war.
