Around 8:00 AM on September 11, 2026, I launched an investigation into the battle over Reinsurers between the West and Islam. I had just watched a man of FOX complain about the failure to investigate Saudi Arabia. Frontline did a story on John O’Neil. The head of homeland security lied to me and my Congressman about Al Queda’s threat to fly a plane into the nuclear plant near the Olympic stadium in 2,000. There were hundreds of threats – that were oppressed? What was the motive I have been asking for 25 years? I suspect Arab Reinsurers wanted Lloyds and others out of – their nations. Wealthy Oil Sheiks wanted to build a Islamic Empire and elect a Caliphate. Lloyd’s insure the Trade Towers – that were not supposed to come down. How many Reinsurers has offices there?

Surely the employees of Guy Carpenter discussed amongst themselves if they were a TARGET on 911. After a quarter of a century, you would think someone would have made a film about how they got out of the south tower.

Surely the families of those who worked for Marsh & McLennan wondered allowed if their loved ones were – TARGETTED! Was there talk about…

THE REINSURER’S WAR YEARS BEFORE 911?

Did Marsh & McLennan use British Itelligence? How about Guy Carpenter?

Trump prides himself on being a Builder. Who is his reinsurer? Is it possible the Zionist convinced our President he would – win the insurer’s war by helping Israel attack Iran? What reinsurer’s does Israel use?

I do not feel safe. My blogs were attacked. After the first Irqui war. Jim Baker was putting together a plan to build nuclear plants in Kuwait. The Laden family were the largest cememt company in the Middle East. Margate Thatcher owned…

THREE MILE ISLAND THAT WAS A TARGET.

President Trump had to know the Trade Center area a beehive of Reinsurers. When did he first entertain getting in the business? He lost money on his casino. He warned about a Economic D-Day! The Reinsurer System may be….

BROKEN!

Is this why Trump tried to BUY VOTES so We The People will never learn..

THE TRUTH?

Thousands of insurance, financial, and trade-related corporate employees worked throughout the complex, and global reinsurers ultimately bore the vast financial weight of the September 11 property and business interruption losses

Lloyd’s of London: Underwriters from Lloyd’s have supported the Israeli insurance market for over 70 years, writing property, liability, marine, aviation, cyber, and casualty reinsurance. [1]
Swiss Re: Maintains active relationships and operational coverage in the Israeli market, though it has scaled back some of its direct local life and health management presence via its Swiss Re Israel Branch. [1, 2]

CIA Knew in 2000 – 911 Was Coming

Several years ago I wrote my Congressman, Peter Defazio, about Al-Queda’s attempt to blow a nuclear plant in Sydney during the Summer Olympics of 2000.

“While most of the South Tower staff escaped, the parent company, Marsh & McLennan, suffered severe losses overall that day, with 295 employees and 63 consultants killed across their various offices and towers. [1, 2, 3]
Guy Carpenter specifically lost 29 employees in total across the complex, which included staff located in their separate North Tower offices (94th floor) where the first plane struck. An exact final headcount of solely the South Tower survivors has not been officially published, but company accounts confirm that “our employees in the South Tower managed to evacuate” through the coordinated efforts of those present

The firm occupied eight floors (47–55) in the South Tower and one (94) in the North Tower of the World Trade Center in New York City until the 9/11 attacks destroyed the complex in 2001

United Airlines Flight 175 struck the South Tower (2 World Trade Center) between the 77th and 85th floors.

On September 11, 2001, Marsh McLennan suffered the greatest loss of life of any single company at the World Trade Center when American Airlines Flight 11 struck the North Tower. [1, 2]

Office Location and Impact

  • Floors Occupied: The firm occupied floors 93 through 100 in the North Tower (1 World Trade Center).
  • The Impact Zone: Flight 11 crashed directly into the building between floors 93 and 99, trapping everyone on and above those floors.
  • Blocked Escapes: All elevators and stairwells passing through the impact zone were destroyed or blocked, preventing evacuation from the upper floors

The relationship between Arab insurance markets and Western reinsurers is deeply interdependent but currently experiencing severe strain due to heightened geopolitical conflict, surging war-risk premiums, and a local push for financial sovereignty. [1, 2, 3]

Historically, Arab nations relied almost exclusively on Western hubs like London, Europe, and Bermuda to back their large-scale risks. Today, that dynamic is evolving rapidly across several critical fronts. [1, 2]

1. High Reliance on Western Capital

Arab insurance markets have traditionally featured low retention rates, meaning local primary insurers pass a massive percentage of their large risks—especially in infrastructure, aviation, mega-projects, and energy—directly to international markets. [1, 2, 3]

  • The Scale Dilemma: While local players easily manage standard motor and medical portfolios on their own, regional companies often lack the massive capital and technical underwriting sophistication required to absorb catastrophic or highly complex corporate losses. [1, 2, 3]
  • Western Intermediaries: Major international brokers and reinsurers (such as Lloyd’s syndicates, Gallagher, and Bermudian carriers) maintain heavily integrated regional hubs in financial centers like Dubai and Riyadh to manage this capital outflow. [1, 2]

2. The Geopolitical Strain & “War Risk” Exits

The relationship is heavily impacted by the escalating conflicts in the Persian Gulf and Red Sea corridors. [1, 2]

  • Capacity Withdrawal: Western reinsurers have sharply tightened their risk appetites, in many cases issuing short-notice cancellations and withdrawing capacity for war-risk exposures. This has disrupted standard claims-sharing arrangements and forced maritime clubs to restrict coverage. [1, 2]
  • Premium Skyrocketing: For vessels and cargo still securing coverage through Western markets, hull insurance rates and war-risk surcharges have spiked dramatically, altering the economic feasibility of regional trade routes. [1, 2]

3. Arab Push for Self-Reliance (National De-risking)

In response to volatile international capacity, Arab states are increasingly taking matters into their own hands to protect their supply chains and reduce their dependency on Western underwriting decisions. [1, 2]

  • National Insurance Pools: Saudi Arabia established a national war-risk insurance pool—managed by Saudi Re—specifically designed to insulate domestic transport and logistics sectors from shifting global reinsurance sentiments. [1, 2]
  • Regulatory Shifting: Regional bodies, like the Saudi Insurance Authority, are rolling out aggressive updates (such as the Risk-Based Capital regime slated for 2027). These measures aim to force consolidation among smaller local insurers, increase domestic capital retention, and attract foreign branches under strict regional oversight rather than offshore fronting.

Guy Carpenter & Company, LLC is an American risk and reinsurance specialist[1] based in New York with more than 60 offices worldwide. Placing more than $51 billion in gross premium volume in 2021,[2] Guy Carpenter has grown to become one of the world’s leading reinsurance brokers.

The company, a subsidiary of Marsh McLennan, was acquired by Marsh & McLennan Companies in 1923.[3]

History

1922–1999

Guy Carpenter (1869–1935)[4] founded the company in 1922 and concluded a merger with MMC founders Henry W. Marsh and Donald R. McLennan about a year later.[5][6] Concurrently, he was the manager[7] of Atlanta-based[8][9] Cotton Insurance Association,[6] which had been organized in 1905.[10]

The Carpenter Plan

The Carpenter Plan[11] was based on using a rolling average of losses, over a period of years, rather than simply looking at the prior year.[12] One result was that insurance contracts were focused more on what was not covered. Carpenter’s contracts were more inclusive – the focus was on what was excluded.[13] Fire insurance paid for the damage resulting from a fire. An example of how this did not work was the following:A bale of cotton sitting in a railroad car caught fire. By the time the insurance company won an appeal against having to pay, “No insurance for the loss of the cotton” was paid, but, to help the owner of the cotton rebuild the business, “a loan or advance has been made to him by the insurance company, to be repaid …”[14] By the time of this injustice, Carpenter’s plan, which he had discussed with Lloyd’s of London in 1915,[6] was beginning to take root.[12]

2000–present

The firm occupied eight floors (47–55) in the South Tower and one (94) in the North Tower of the World Trade Center in New York City until the 9/11 attacks destroyed the complex in 2001.

In February 2020, Guy Carpenter & Company entered into a multi-year agreement with Karen Clark and Company (KCC) to license its catalogue of natural catastrophe models, analytics and execution software.[15] Another area is “Cyber insurance”,[16][17] working with Symantec to measure “severity and frequency.”[18]

Terrorism

For Years, John O’Neill Warned of Al Qaeda’s Threat. Then He Died on 9/11.

When the twin towers fell on Sept. 11, 2001, among the thousands killed was the one man who may have known more about Osama bin Laden and Al Qaeda than any other person in America: former FBI agent John O’Neill.

When the twin towers fell on Sept. 11, 2001, among the thousands killed was the one man who may have known more about Osama bin Laden and Al Qaeda than any other person in America.

His name was John O’Neill, and as an FBI special agent focused on Al Qaeda, he had sounded the alarm about the group’s threat to the United States long before 9/11.

O’Neill’s story is at the heart of the classic 2002 FRONTLINE documentary The Man Who Knew, which re-airs on PBS stations across the country Sept. 8, 2026, as the U.S. prepares to observe the 25th anniversary of the worst terror attack in the nation’s history.

The documentary, which is also available to stream, raises haunting questions about the FBI’s approach to counterterrorism in the lead-up to 9/11, about O’Neill’s warnings on Al Qaeda — and about why the bureau stopped listening.

“The night before he died, he had said to me, ‘We’re due, and we’re due for something big,’” O’Neill’s friend Jerry Hauer, a former director of emergency management for New York City who died in 2023, told FRONTLINE in the documentary.

Drawing on interviews with many of O’Neill’s closest friends and associates, The Man Who Knew filmmakers Michael Kirk and Jim Gilmore tell the story of a controversial figure within the U.S. intelligence community — a man who was obsessed with Osama bin Laden long before most people had ever heard of him, but whose polarizing style made him too much of a maverick for some at FBI headquarters.

“You could be flagged as a problem, and your career could pretty much be over,” Joe Cantamessa, a former FBI special agent, told FRONTLINE.

O’Neill had investigated the bombing of the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, the USS Cole in Yemen, the Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia and an earlier attack on the World Trade Center in 1993. He became increasingly convinced that another attack on U.S. soil was imminent — and the film traces his growing frustration with Washington, D.C.’s lax attitude toward the possibility that Al Qaeda sleeper cells were operating in the U.S.

“What John O’Neill was trying to do was get a momentum going in the FBI to look seriously for those cells,” said Richard Clarke, the nation’s former counterterrorism czar, in the documentary.

O’Neill pushed for the bureau to reorganize itself to take on terrorism, advocating a plan that would emphasize new ways of gathering and passing on information about groups like Al Qaeda: “From his point of view, it was very clear what had to be done,” said former FBI deputy director Robert “Bear” Bryant, an O’Neill supporter.

But O’Neill’s brash approach, his obsession with bin Laden, and questions about his personal life created friction with FBI leadership. So did his temporary loss of a briefcase containing a classified report (an incident one superior at the FBI called “a big deal”), and allegations that he used an FBI car to give a ride to his girlfriend.

Amid the resulting investigations, O’Neill left the job he loved and entered the private sector in the summer of 2001 — as director of security for the World Trade Center.

Just days later, the terrorists O’Neill had long pursued struck his new workplace.

His body was found in the debris of the South Tower.
