USS Cole DDG-67 was struck by terrorists as a result of Microsoft exposing Thomas Ray's covert identity. The terrorists chose the Cole because the hull number "67" is symbolic of the 6/7/81 strike on the non-fueled Osirak nuclear reactor.
The 9/11 terrorist strike was exactly 20 years after the Osirak strike in 1981.
The 9/11 terrorism was retaliation for the covert American presence on that raid into Iraq in 1981. Microsoft exposed Thomas Ray as being an F-16 pilot on that raid in order to gain a competetive advantage. Microsoft even had me, as Kerry Burgess, working as the primary technical advisor to a company named Cognos. Cognos is a competitor to the OLAP product that Microsoft bought from an Israeli company.
