Do We Still Have the Sons of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed?
Sunday, 15 November 2009 1:34 A GMT-05
If he is, indeed, the 9-11 mastermind, I surely would like to ask him a question or two. The first would be how on earth he was able to persuade Osama and the boys that the plan would have any chance at all to succeed. From the beginning, it depended upon complete ineptitude on the part of America’s air defenses. Even though Tom Clancy, a man who seems to be on the best of terms with the Pentagon crowd, had already written two novels in which terrorists hijack airliners, Debt of Honor, and Executive Orders, with the intent of crashing them into important buildings, the very notion that someone would actually do it was beyond our leaders’ wildest imagination, we have been told. Though the top U.S. bulb might be an exceptionally dim one, how does one make grandiose plans that depend utterly upon such unimaginably low wattage up and down the chain of command? Wouldn’t Mohammed have to be more than a mastermind, but a master mindreader?
More than that, wouldn’t it even have required a degree of clairvoyance that would surely have made the plan very hard to sell to superiors? The hijackers would all have to be able to get through security without their weapons being detected and those weapons would have to be perceived as lethal enough to allow them to control the far larger numbers of passengers and crew of the airplanes. What are the chances, really, of so many people behaving so much like sheep?
“Sorry, Khalid,” I can hear Osama saying, “Go back to the drawing board and come up with something a bit simpler that has a greater likelihood of success,” and we haven’t even mentioned the need for virtuoso piloting and navigating performances by novice pilots on harrowing suicide missions.
Chomsky Confronted on 9/11: Admits LIHOP is "Conceivable"
Saturday, 7 November 2009 2:47 P GMT-05
A 9/11 activist recently confronted Noam Chomsky on his previous, well-publicized disparaging remarks about 9/11 truth. After spending several minutes repeating his tired arguments about the impossibility of 9/11 as an inside job, Chomsky then concedes that the notion that the Bush Administration knew of an impending attack and let it happen on purpose is "conceivable."
On the Record: Former FBI Agent Coleen Rowley Calls for a New 9/11 Investigation
Saturday, 31 October 2009 11:39 A GMT-05
While some may criticize Rowley (as I have) for not publicly challenging the cover story about al Qaeda, Bin Laden and 19 hijackers, her demand for a new investigation is a necessary first step, and it stands as a strong statement on the record by one of America’s most famous 9/11 whistleblowers. As such it should be applauded.

Deaths of 9/11 front-liners renew talk of aid bill NY DAILY NEWS Oct.13th
Saturday, 17 October 2009 9:42 P GMT-05
The deaths of three 9/11 first responders in the past week is enough proof for Mayor Bloomberg that people are getting sick from working at Ground Zero.
"Probably - nobody's sure - but probably contracted during breathing the air down at the World Trade Center site," the mayor said yesterday after the Daily News reported that two cops and a firefighter recently died of cancer.
NYPD Officer Robert Grossman died of cancer Friday at the age of 44. The next day, Firefighter Richard Mannetta, 44, died of cancer. And last Wednesday, 37-year-old Police Officer Cory Diaz also died of cancer. Firefighter John McNamara, 44, died of cancer last month.
Charlie Sheen 9/11 Contest: Win $14,000 And Spread The Truth Virally
Saturday, 17 October 2009 6:37 P GMT-05
Charlie has announced a video contest. Contestants are asked to creatively interpret the script and produce and execute a video. The completed videos will be posted on YouTube or a similar service and will be promoted on Infowars and the 20 Minutes with the President website. In this way the message and call for a new investigation ignored by the corporate media will go viral on the internet.

The mainstream media: what - or who - is it made of?
Sunday, 11 October 2009 3:48 A GMT-05
I graduated from the University of Miami with a BS in Broadcast Journalism. In my four years of "higher learning," never once do I recall a professor telling us to be even remotely skeptical of government mouthpieces. Never do I once recall a professor insisting that we do our own research. In fact, everything was about reading AP stories off the wire and re-writing them for our own purposes. It was about using correct grammar... saying "alleged" when appropriate... and meeting deadlines.
Charlie Sheen urges Barack Obama to reopen 9/11 investigation in video message
Sunday, 11 October 2009 1:16 A GMT-05
The six-and-a-half minute video - released on the eighth anniversary of the disaster - opens with news reports and footage of the incident with Sheen's voiceover: "The questions Mr President, the questions."
He then runs through the various "unanswered questions" such as World Trade Center workers and rescuers claiming the building imploded after the collision (as if with detonations), sections of the media supposedly reporting the collapse before it actually happened and FBI translator Sibel Edmonds claiming Osama Bin Laden was working for the CIA up until 9/11.
Open Letter to the Denver Post
Saturday, 10 October 2009 7:47 P GMT-05
As shown below, the articles fail to meet the Posts’s own published ethical standards for journalism such as the requirements of intellectual honesty, to present all sides, to be fair and even-handed, and to avoid loaded phrasing. None of the authors has attempted to present any facts or a reasoned analysis for their dismissal of these citizens. They instead have all stooped to ad hominem attacks, displaying a striking and perplexing lack of curiosity as to why a new investigation is supported by 45% of American citizens (2006 Zogby poll). Thus, the overall tone of each piece is that of propaganda and not news or journalism.
The Official Version of 9/11
Saturday, 10 October 2009 7:40 P GMT-05
The Official Version of 9/11 goes something like this...
Directed by a beardy-guy from a cave in Afghanistan, nineteen hard-drinking, coke-snorting, devout Muslims enjoy lap dances before their mission to meet Allah...
Using nothing more than craft knifes, they overpower cabin crew, passengers and pilots on four planes...
And hangover or not, they manage to give the world's most sophisticated air defense system the slip...
Unphased by leaving their “How to Fly a Passenger Jet” guide in the car at the airport, they master the controls in no-time and score direct hits on two towers, causing THREE to collapse completely...
Our masterminds even manage to overpower the odd law of physics or two... and the world watches in awe as steel-framed buildings fall symmetrically - through their own mass - at free-fall speed, for the first time in history.
Despite all their dastardly cunning, they stupidly give their identity away by using explosion-proof passports, which survive the fireball undamaged and fall to the ground... only to be discovered by the incredible crime-fighting sleuths at the FBI...
…Meanwhile down in Washington...
Hani Hanjour, having previously flunked 2-man Cessna flying school, gets carried away with all the success of the day and suddenly finds incredible abilities behind the controls of a Boeing...
Instead of flying straight down into the large roof area of the Pentagon, he decides to show off a little...
Executing an incredible 270 degree downward spiral, he levels off to hit the low facade of the world's most heavily defended building...
...all without a single shot being fired.... or ruining the nicely mowed lawn... and all at a speed just too fast to capture on video...
Vincent Caroll of "The Denver Post" trying his had at hit pieces
Sunday, 27 September 2009 5:39 P GMT-05
Oh, propaganda... I see, Mr Caroll. And of course all the many statements the government has made on the subject through its many mouthpieces have been all unadulterated truth, the whole truth and nothing but... Even when those statements happened to contradict each other. Even when they were later declared to be false, by none other than the very people whose job it was to come up with the governments official interpretation of the events... Yes, Mr Caroll, I mean the members of the 9/11 Commission.

New Statesman Cover Story: David Ray Griffin 41st Most Influential Person in the World!
Saturday, 26 September 2009 7:01 P GMT-05
I'm sending you a few selections from the cover story in the recent New Statesman. Check out # 41. This is rather amazing: Even though it's a backhanded compliment, it is QUITE a compliment to me and the 9/11 Truth Movement. This famous left-wing British magazine does, to be sure, say that we are "pernicious," but it seems to think that we are quite significant, being one of the 50 most important groups in the world at this time. My only regret is the number 41 position: I always hated it in the 1980s when little old ladies would tell me that I looked "just like George Bush. (For those of you in other countries, "41" is the short-hand reference for George H.W. Bush, our 41st president.) Seriously, this appraisal of our importance suggests to me that we need to keep doing what we've been doing (albeit perhaps with some new methods), building up both the percentage of the population that rejects the official story and also the credibility of our movement's public face by means of books, articles, public lectures, DVDs, professional 9/11 groups (3 more, incidentally, are about ready to go public), films, and, when possible, lawsuits (one or two may get going soon), and authorized investigations (such as NYC CAN may succeed in getting). I have just been re-reading about the American war in Vietnam in preparation for writing something about the similarities between it and our war in Afghanistan. The anti-war movement got going in earnest in 1965, and yet the U.S. did not pull out of Vietnam until 8 long years later, in 1973. During that time, the White House tried to pretend that it was indifferent to the anti-war movement, although in reality it spent much of its time trying to decide how to deal with it (see John Prados, "Vietnam"). We don't have the big marches and hence TV coverage that the anti-Vietnam-war movement generated. But we may, in our own way (dealing with a quite different type of problem), be causing similar concerns.
The March for Answers
Thursday, 24 September 2009 2:44 A GMT-05
On a larger scale, I hope the March For Answers generates a referendum for America in the next voting cycle. 9/11 occurred first in New York City, but it obviously was, or made to appear to be, an attack on America. So let New York direct America into the awareness it deserves as to what really happened on that day, first by a new investigation in New York City, which could lead to a new, impartial, commission -- one whose members are not all directly connected to George Bush, his administration, the military, oil interests, and the usual band of bandits.
9/11 anniversary: a lovely day for a spot of protesting at the BBC
Saturday, 12 September 2009 1:27 P GMT-05
But here’s something I really don’t understand: when did it become uncool to ask questions? When did questioners become imbeciles? Who gets to hand out the tinfoil hats? When did it become cool to believe what we’re told? In the words of Mr Hicks, did I miss a meeting? When did so many of the cynics and sceptics, so many of the sharpest brains I know (hello Charlie Brooker!) think that the cool thing to do is mock the questioners, and defend the party line. How stratospherically uncool is that? You want to know who’s cool? Gareth is cool, Mohsin in the pink shirt is cool, the girl in the pink pants is cool. Charlie Sheen is cool, Julianne Moore is cool, Dario Fo is cool. And today, perhaps for the first time in my life, I’m cool too.
Change: Obama Extends Bush 9/11 National Emergency
Saturday, 12 September 2009 1:11 P GMT-05
Because the terrorist threat continues, the national emergency declared on September 14, 2001, and the powers and authorities adopted to deal with that emergency, must continue in effect beyond September 14, 2009. Therefore, I am continuing in effect for an additional year the national emergency the former President declared on September 14, 2001, with respect to the terrorist threat. This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress. BARACK OBAMA THE WHITE HOUSE, September 10, 2009.

Time to rescue our 9/11 heroes ill from Ground Zero cleanup
Saturday, 12 September 2009 12:35 P GMT-05
"I knew right away they'd need ironworkers to cut through those collapsed beams," he recalled. Picurro joined thousands of hardhats who showed up at Ground Zero that first night. They helped retrieve bodies, battle flames and clear debris. Along with the cops, firefighters and other emergency responders, they were lauded as heroes then. Their selfless actions gave us solace and hope amid all that grief. They did not know then about the toxic soup of chemicals in the dust and in the air. Federal and city health officials downplayed any danger at the time. They even dared tell the public the air was safe to breathe. Now, Joe Picurro, 42, is dying. His family is destitute and his faith in our country's leaders has been shattered. The list of ailments ravaging his body is stunning. To begin with, his lungs are inflamed and scarred from a disease called sarcoidosis, so inflamed from all the tiny particles of glass and even human bone fragments lodged in them that every breath produces excruciating pain. His doctor has told him he has the lungs of a 95-year-old.
Eight Years After 9/11, Ground Zero Volunteer Dying of Lung Disease is One of Many Still Fighting for Justice
Saturday, 12 September 2009 12:23 P GMT-05
JOE PICURRO: Well, right now I’m hooked up to my oxygen machine. You know, my lungs are—I went to the doctor yesterday, and it was—we didn’t get good news. Basically, the doctor said, you know, if he could get me another year or two, you know, he would—you know, he’d be surprised. And so, I’m on thirty-seven medications—well, actually thirty-nine; he put me on two more, you know, when I went to see him yesterday. And, you know, most of my problems come from my lungs, but my whole body is racked with pain, all my joints. It’s just like a laundry list of problems. If it’s not one thing, it’s another, you know? Breathing, like I said, is the hardest. Like I said, I’m hooked up to oxygen now. My lungs have concrete and glass and human bone fragments in them. And, you know, so what happens is your lungs are the only organ that rejuvenate themselves, and mine, instead of growing viable lung tissue, they’re growing—it’s growing scar tissue. So it’s making my lungs get bigger and bigger. And when I take a deep breath, my lungs actually rub against my ribs, and it hurts.

9/11 FEMA VIDEOGRAPHER BLOWS THE WHISTLE
Sunday, 6 September 2009 2:25 P GMT-05
Kurt Sonnenfeld: There were many things, in hindsight, that were disturbing at Ground Zero. It was odd to me that I was dispatched to go to New York even before the second plane hit the South Tower, while the media was still reporting only that a “small plane” had collided with the North Tower~ far too small of a catastrophe at that point to involve FEMA . FEMA was mobilized within minutes, whereas it took ten days for it to deploy to New Orleans to respond to Hurricane Katrina, even with abundant advance warning! It was odd to me that all cameras were so fiercely prohibited within the secured perimeter of Ground Zero, that the entire area was declared a crime scene and yet the “evidence” within that crime scene was so rapidly removed and destroyed. And then it was very odd to me when I learned that FEMA and several other federal agencies had already moved into position at their command center at Pier 92 on September 10th, one day before the attacks!!

Another Rebuttal To Gartner's Psychology Today Hit Piece
Saturday, 5 September 2009 2:15 A GMT-05
So, in your article titled, “Dark Minds: When does incredulity become paranoia” are you suggesting that there are no conspiracies? Are you saying that there are not powerful people who meet and discuss world policy that effects us all? The Bilderberg group doesnt exist? Globalization doesnt exist? If there is no cover-up about 9-11 at all, why is there so much secrecy and hundreds of questions that have been IGNORED by the government and political leaders about it? Why was any mention of World Trade Center 7 completely omitted from the 9-11 Commission report? Are we “crazy” to even ask the questions? And when we get NO answers, we’re “conspiracy nuts”?
National Geographic Does 9/11: Another Icon Debased in Service of the Big Lie
Saturday, 5 September 2009 1:59 A GMT-05
Although I show that every point in the page appears crafted to mislead the reader about a particular issue, the greater misdirection lies in how the article frames the broad subject of the official account of 9/11 and challenges to it. First, the article gives no sense of the scope of those challenges, such as is readily surmised by an enumeration of outstanding anomalies in the official account. In other words, the article implies by omission that it has disposed of the only problems with the official account.

We have heard you state publicly after the WTC 7 press conference that it "would not be productive" for you to meet with the Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth. This is quite disappointing – as we now have over 700 architects and engineers at AE911Truth calling for a real investigation into the destruction of the three World Trade Center high-rises on 9/11. At what point will you take us seriously? Perhaps when our rapidly growing numbers reach 1,000 A/E's?

Unspun Newz story - Real Time problems with Bill Maher?
Saturday, 8 August 2009 7:04 P GMT-05
For some years, HBOs satirical talk show host Bill Maher - of Real Time, has repeatedly vocalized his ill opinion on his weekly live cable television show, of those who question the governments account of the events of September 11th. Whether its directed against a Real Time guest or used as a punch line to his entertainment offerings, activists known as 9/11 Truthers have been lambasted as tin foil hat conspiracy theorists. But, then again, Bill Maher also publicly states the Twin Towers burned for more than two hours. This would make little impact on national opinion if it were not for Mahers impressive viewership numbers. Ratings are the mark of a TV man and Bill seems to be holding the high cards however, when it comes to documentation of what actually occurred on that tragic day and the alleged evidence that has since surfaced, it seems, the time has come for Maher to rethink his hand and callor fold. Countless viewers and fans have contacted Real Time - and its producers over the years out of frustration and hope of getting any one - of a growing number, of experts invited onto his show as a guest to openly - without bias, discuss new evidence that appears to contradict most of what we have been told. Maher and his team have not only refused to respond to any of their correspondence, but have also continued the live derision of a people, on a topic he has refused to research in any reputable way. So much so, that even after a $250,000 cash challenge issued by Jock Doubleday (to merely study the evidence), Maher continues his refusal to acknowledge on his show, the possibility, of malice, ill intent, foreknowledge, cover-up, and/or the potential involvement of the United States government in these attacks.

Polls show broad skepticism among Americans of official 9/11 narrative
Thursday, 6 August 2009 10:33 A GMT-05
Below is a summary of opinion polls querying the American public on the viability of the official government narrative for 9/11. Polls have been conducted by such pollsters as Zogby, Scripps Howard, Reuters and Angus Reid and cable news channels such as CNN and MSNBC. Apparently, the official conspiracy theory isn't doing very well. In fact, the numbers are scaring the bejesus out of some of the pollsters, who are left looking for ways to trivialize such large numbers of their fellow citizens as "fringe elements". Tactics include suggesting the respondents are misguided because of ethnocentric bias, inability to cope with events of large magnitude, lack of intelligence, factual ignorance, one-sidedness, the internet or deeply embedded distrust of government. The last suggestion appears to have a chicken-or-egg problem.

The funding was included in the FY2010 Labor and Health and Human Services Appropriations Bill, which passed the House today. The lawmakers, along with Rep. Peter King (R-NY), are sponsors of the 9/11 Health and Compensation Act (H.R. 847), which would provide long-term, comprehensive health care and compensation for those sickened or injured in the aftermath of 9/11.

Taboo News and Corporate Media
Sunday, 2 August 2009 4:29 P GMT-05
The corporate media in the United States are ignoring valid news stories, based on university quality research. It appears that certain topics are simply forbidden inside the mainstream corporate media today. To openly cover these news stories would stir up questions regarding “inconvenient truths” that many in the US power structure want to avoid. For example, current research indicates that public schools in the United States are more segregated today than they have been in more than four decades. According to a new Civil Rights report, published at the University of California, Los Angeles, schools in the US are 44 percent non-white, and minorities are rapidly emerging as the majority of public school students in the US. Latinos and blacks, the two largest minority groups, attend schools more segregated today than during the civil rights movement forty years ago. Millions of non-white students are locked into “dropout factory” high schools, where huge percentages do not graduate. The most severe segregation in public schools occurs in the Western states, including California—not in the South, as many people believe. Most non-white schools are segregated by poverty as well as race. Schools in low-income communities remain highly unequal in terms of funding, qualified teachers, and curriculum.
Don't insult 9/11 'Truthers' by comparing them to brain-dead 'Birthers'
Sunday, 2 August 2009 4:00 P GMT-05
Like the Birthers, the Truthers are widely dismissed in the mainstream media as conspiracy theorists. But lumping the two groups together is actually insulting to the Truthers — for at least three reasons. 1. Birther theories are completely nuts — even compared to the most way-out factions of the 9/11 Truth Movement. Most people dismiss the notion that the U.S. government would slaughter thousands of its own citizens as a pretext to invade Central Asia and the Middle East. But there is nothing to say that such an evil plot isn't theoretically possible. Other governments — from the Soviet Union to Nazi Germany — have staged equally evil "false flag" attacks to stir up popular opinion against an outside enemy. Even America's own military plotted a somewhat similar fake terrorist attack as a pretext to attack Cuba in 1962. In the case of the Birthers, by contrast, the underlying conspiracy theory doesn't even make sense: We are supposed to believe that Barack Obama's pregnant mother, living in Hawaii at the time, flew halfway around the world — by herself — so she could give birth to Barack in a Third World Kenyan hospital … and then flew back to Hawaii and conspired with Honolulu's Kapi'olani Medical Center to place bogus local birth announcements in not one, but two local newspapers — after which she hacked local birth-records offices to create a fake birth paper trail … and for what? To install her child as President of the United States … in 47 years.
New York Judge Dismisses Claim Negligent Construction Contributed To WTC 7 Collapse
Saturday, 1 August 2009 12:52 A GMT-05
Judge Hellerstein dismissed count four in its entirety because, “There is no genuine issue of material fact as to whether these allegations, and proofs supporting them, would suffice to establish Con Edison’s claims.” It is important to stress that Judge Hellerstein’s rejection of these counts is not a rejection of the premise that fire and debris from the twin towers was responsible for the collapse of Building 7, indeed that factor is later highlighted in the briefing as the cause of the collapse in the judge’s opinion, but Hellerstein’s ruling that the design or maintenance of the building did not contribute to its collapse is still key. As we have previously reported, claims that WTC 7 was shoddily constructed and therefore more vulnerable to collapse are contradicted by the fact that the building was intentionally designed to allow large portions of floors to be permanently removed without weakening the structural integrity of the building.
9/11 FAMILIES, FIRST RESPONDERS AND SURVIVORS TO TAKE NEW YORK CITY TO COURT OVER NYC CAN PETITION

SEVENTY THOUSAND New Yorkers signed the NYC CAN petition, raising their voices in support of NYC CAN’s demand for accountability. They have chosen to place the decision to create a new 9/11 investigation – a REAL 9/11 investigation – exactly where it belongs: before the voters of New York City this November. The voices of SEVENTY THOUSAND Americans who believe in democracy and believe that government exists to serve the people – and not the other way around – have been GAGGED by ONE so-called “PUBLIC SERVANT” – The New York City Clerk – who denied the petition and the voice of the people.
Filmmaker And 9/11 Truth Activist John Albanese Endorses NYCCAN

70,000 signatures. A groundswell of endorsements from some of the most prestigious and well-respected names in and out of the 9/11 Truth movement, anti-war movement, government and military officials, and, most importantly, the victim’s families. Whether one agrees or disagrees with the underlying language, history and personalities of those involved, it cannot be disputed that NYC CAN represents perhaps the most unified and historic groundswell of public support for a 9/11 investigation in the history of the 9/11 Truth movement. We cannot turn our backs on the self-evident nature of this historic collaboration.

New paper at The Journal of 9/11 Studies
Tuesday, 21 July 2009 1:13 A GMT-05
"In the debate over the collapses of the Twin Towers on 9/11, the shaking of the earth that accompanied these collapses has played an important role. This shaking registered clearly on seismographs. Less clear, however, are its causes and the times it began. The National Institute of Standards and Technology emphasizes the role of the debris from the collapsing buildings in producing the seismic signals. In assessing NIST’s hypothesis I focus on the collapse of the South Tower and attempt to determine the time the collapse began, the time the debris from the Tower struck the ground, and the temporal relation of these events to the shaking of the earth that accompanied the collapse. I consider both the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory’s seismic evidence and the evidence provided by a less studied form of seismic instrument, the video camera. I also draw on witness testimony. I conclude that key statements by NIST are false. Major shaking of the earth, and corresponding seismic signals, started well before the debris hit the ground. In fact, it seems certain that the shaking of the earth started before visible signs of building collapse. This evidence is incompatible with the official NIST hypothesis of the cause of the collapse of the Towers."

Heimbach, Assistant Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) Counterterrorism Division, National Security Branch, it is claimed that a hypothesis regarding exclusive GPS guided autopilot control of the four aircraft destroyed during the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 is under review. The FBI notice is in response to receipt of a twenty page thesis describing the aircraft attacks of September 11, 2001 being potentially within the capability solely of autopilot and navigation systems of American Airlines and United Airlines Boeing 757 and 767 aircraft and upgraded Global Positioning System (GPS) technology circa 2001.
Celebrated FBI whistleblower supports new 9/11 probe
Sunday, 19 July 2009 3:39 P GMT-05
In the absence of my being there in New York City to stand with the 9/11 families, first responders and survivors, I offer the following statement in support of your goal of a new investigation into the attacks of September 11th and the NYC CAN campaign to place it on the ballot for November.
How the FBI and 9/11 Commission Suppressed Key Evidence about Hani Hanjour
Friday, 10 July 2009 2:32 A GMT-05
The evidence was crucial because it undermined the official explanation that Hani Hanjour crashed American Airlines Flight 77 into the Pentagon at high speed after executing an extremely difficult top gun maneuver. But to understand how all of this played out, let us review the case in bite-size pieces...
Investigators Easily Smuggled Bomb Material Into Government Buildings
Thursday, 9 July 2009 2:03 A GMT-05
A new report by the Government Accountability Office inadvertently discredits a claim often made by 9/11 truth debunkers – that bombs could not have been smuggled into the twin towers or Building 7 without being noticed by security.

EXPLOSIVE TESTIMONY! / MacQueen NYFD 9/11 witnesses
Thursday, 18 June 2009 10:37 A GMT-05
NYFD Asst. Commissioner Stephen Gregory: I thought that I saw...low level flashes...I saw flash-flash-flash, and then it looked like the building came down. You know like when they blow up a building, when it falls down? That's what I thought I saw."
Firefighter Daniel Rivera: "At first I thought it was... Do you ever see professional demolition where they set the charges on certain floors and then you hear, 'pop-pop-pop-pop-pop'? That's exactly what, because I thought it was that, when I heard that frigging noise, that's when I saw the building coming down."
NYFD Captain Karin Deshore: "Somewhere around the middle of the World Trade Center there was this orange and red flash coming out. Initially it was just one flash. Then this flash kept popping, all the way around the building, and that building had started to explode."
$575G Reprieve For 9/11 Hospital
Thursday, 18 June 2009 1:36 A GMT-05
The Environmental & Occupational Health Sciences Institute at the Robert Wood Johnson Medical School in New Brunswick had told its 1,800 patients it wasn't sure it could stay open past next month. Federal funding had been held up over an accounting dispute, but late Tuesday the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health said it was sending $575,000 to cover summer expenses. John Feal, founder of the Fealgood Foundation, which pushes for health care for 9/11 workers, said the money isn't enough. Feal said, "$575,000 is like putting a Band-Aid on a machine-gun wound. "Funding for three months is a joke when 9/11 first responders will need treatment for the rest of their lives."

9/11 Truth Activist Sues Glenn Beck and Fox News for Defamation
Friday, 12 June 2009 11:26 P GMT-05
Specifically, Greg Hoover will be suing the above-described defendants in Federal Court for Beck’s having repeatedly broadcast statements characterizing those who question the government’s official version of the events of 9/11 as, "anarchists," "terrorists" and as persons denying the Holocaust. The complaint will note that - on October 22, 2007 - Beck suggested that those identifying themselves as associated with the 9/11 truth movement are "dangerous" "anarchists" who deny the Holocaust, and are "the kind of group that Timothy McVeigh would come from." The suit will also note that during Beck’s June 10th broadcast Beck linked the murder of the Washington D.C. holocaust museum guard with "9/11 truthers." As I have previously written, suing people for defamation who falsely claim that 9/11 activists are terrorists could be a good way to stand up to these bullies.

This is not simply a ploy to cover up the fact that these prisoners were brutally tortured. It is also a way to silence them forever, so that they can never tell what their real role was in the 9/11 attacks, and who they received assistance from, and how they were able to convince the mightiest military the world has ever known to stand down from standard air defense protocols on 9/11.

The Truth is Not Enough: How to Overcome Emotional Barriers to 9/11 Truth
Friday, 29 May 2009 2:19 A GMT-05
The good news is that with all that is happening now in our post-9/11 world, particularly with the public knowledge of the lies about WMDs and Saddam being linked to al Qaeda and 9/11 that led us into war with Iraq, people's minds are opening wider every day. More and more people are waking up to the degree of corruption and deception that is routine in our government. Every day they learn more about how the corporate media have been complicit in lies and cover-ups. Trust in such corporate and governmental institutions is now at an all time low, and dropping. This makes people far more open to the 9/11 Truth message. In a very real sense, our job is getting easier. The truth alone is not enough, but the truth plus strategic thinking, planning and educating is enough to convince most fence-sitters. As David Hutton, author of The Change Agents' Handbook, says: "You do not have to spend a lot of time and effort on those who strongly resist change. You only have to help and protect those who want to change." Understanding the various emotional obstacles is an essential part of such a strategy. It's been over seven years for some of us who have been working to expose the truth about 9/11. It will likely take several more years, but we will win -- as long as we work smart and don't give up. The truth will be revealed, and the resultant awakening will lead to the kind of deep changes that are so necessary to create a more positive future.
Psychologists Weigh In On 9/11
Friday, 29 May 2009 1:21 A GMT-05
Finally, it should be obvious that the opinions of mental health professionals are only as sound as their knowledge. For example, a mental health professional in 1640 would likely have labeled Galileo crazy for saying that the Earth orbits around the Sun. More importantly, a German psychologist who heard from a patient in 1933 - when Hitler started consolidating power in Germany - that Hitler was a dangerous fascist who would launch a world war, try to take over the world and kill millions would likely be labeled as delusional. Indeed, the psychologist for the wife of the United States Attorney General under Richard Nixon labeled her claims of a conspiracy by White House officials as delusional (she was later proven right when the facts of Watergate were revealed).
300,000 New Yorkers Could Be Headed For 9/11-Related Health Crisis
Friday, 29 May 2009 1:15 A GMT-05
Though we are approaching the eighth anniversary of 9/11, many New Yorkers are still dealing with the events of that day in the form of health problems. Now, it’s believed, as many as 300,000 are living with diseases that could worsen in the years to come. More than 70,000 New Yorkers have registered with the World Trade Center Health Registry, which tracks the health effects caused by the pollutants releases during the attacks. But many more have been excluded because of the limited area included in the survey—just one square mile. So, how many are really sick? “It’s obvious that thousands and thousands of New Yorkers are going to be battling illnesses in the coming years,” says Steve Centore, a federal first responder and Navy veteran who authored One of Them: A First Responder’s Story about his own experiences during and after his times at ground zero, “We’re going to see a major health crisis in the coming years.”

The Joy of Conspiracy Denial by Carol Cleveland May 21, 2009 www.opednews.com
Wednesday, 27 May 2009 10:23 A GMT-05
To accept the official announcements of the story of 9-11 is instantly satisfying in several ways. Commercial airliners, hijacked by suicide terrorists, flew into buildings at the behest of a really smart master-terrorist named Osama Bin Laden. This is an immediately credible scenario""many of us had heard the name Bin Laden, and "knew" he was a terrorist who lived on the other side of the world. Indeed, the WTC had been attacked once before. And terrorism itself certainly exists--both sides of the 9-11 controversy can agree on that. So, to accept the official announcements that followed the attacks enabled you quickly to locate all the blame for the attacks in a tiny evil army of foreigners, all out of immediate reach, but accessible to the U.S. Army, you bet. The hijackers themselves were all dead, and their leader was extremely hard to find, but American forces could find and punish them. No need, really, to conduct any investigations or solve any mysteries--an evil super-hero with a small army of mentally enslaved unfortunates was able to penetrate the defenses of the finest air force in the world to murder 3000 Americans. A fluke, but in life and in sports, stuff like that happens. The fact that this reads like a comic book plot doesn't seem to be a source of embarrassment for the anti-truther movement. In fact, an evil mastermind who, through mindless suicidal drones, wreaks havoc on good and decent people is the major plot driver of The Lord of the Rings, and many other fantasy and science fiction epics. Mythically speaking, it's golden.

He recently served as a subject matter/rule of law expert on security to the special envoy for Middle East regional security. He is currently a partner of a New Jersey law form and an adjunct professor of national security law at Rutgers University Law School. His editorials and articles have appeared in "The New York Times" and elsewhere.
Rep. Jim Gerlach Intends "To Support" The James Zadroga 9/11 Health And Compensation Act
Wednesday, 20 May 2009 5:21 A GMT-05
As you may know, H.R. 847 would, if enacted, provide medical treatment and compensation to first responders, construction workers, local residents and others who became ill as a result of exposure to Ground Zero toxins after the attacks of September 11, 2001. The bill would re-open the Victim Compensation Fund (VCF) in order to provide compensation to the responders and community members whose illnesses did not manifest until after the VCF deadline. H.R. 847 was introduced by Representative Carolyn Maloney of New York on February 4, 2009 and was referred to the House Committees on Energy and Commerce and the Judiciary. Although I am not a Member of either of these Committees, please know that I intend to support the bill should it come before the full House for a vote.

Cheney to Mainstream Media: Terrorists Blew Up WTC
Saturday, 16 May 2009 6:03 P GMT-05
Former Vice President Dick Cheney and former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld each have made curious 9-11 statements on camera that are well worth pondering. Two particular video clips (see links at bottom) have some observers saying that these comments constitute 9-11 “blurt outs” suggesting inside knowledge of what actually happened on 9-11—Freudian slips, if you will. While this phenomenon of slippery lips regarding 9-11 is not altogether new, Cheney’s statement was on Mother’s Day on national television, a day when many moms remember their soldier-sons who died in the war on terror inspired by 9-11.

A telephone call reveals that editor in chief Marie-Paule Pileni had never been informed that the article was going to be published in The Open Chemical Physics Journal, which is published by the journal giant Bentham Science Publishers. “They have printed the article without my permission, so when you wrote to me, I did not know that the article had appeared. I cannot accept this, and therefore I have written to Bentham that I resign from all activities with them”, explains Marie Paule Pileni, who is professor with a specialty in nanomaterials at the renowned Universite Pierre et Marie Curie in France.

Note: I am not saying that KSM did or didn't have anything to do with 9/11 (I have no idea). I am saying that nothing that the government said about 9/11 should be accepted without independent verification, and that torture does not constitute independent verification. Indeed, given that the government used techniques which were developed especially for producing false confessions, the assumption must be that any confessions were, in fact, false.
Harman Is A Poster Child For What Has Been Wrong With Congress For The Last 8 Years

In a stunning development, powerful Democratic congresswoman Jane Harman has been busted via wiretap for promising the AIPAC lobbying group that she would get a couple of spies off the hook. As Congressional Quarterly's Jeff Stein, Glenn Greenwald, Raw Story and others point out, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales blackmailed Harman into support warrantless spying on Americans by threatening to prosecute her for her little AIPAC episode if she didn't play ball.
New Information on the Death of 911 Eyewitness Barry Jennings

Yesterday, April 15th 2009 I was contacted by “Loose Change” director, and narrator Dylan Avery who said that he had recently begun investigating the death of Barry Jennings, and had found some new information relating to his death. It seems that there is a very good possibility that Jennings’ death could have been due to foul play. Though the investigations are on going, initial findings are somewhat alarming. The conclusion is still forthcoming, but I was shocked by what I heard.

The 9/11 Commission And Torture
Sunday, 15 March 2009 12:10 P GMT-05
And yet it is a distinct possibility that Al Qaeda suspects who were the exclusive source of information for long passages of the commission's report may have been subjected to "enhanced" interrogation techniques, or at least threatened with them, because of the 9/11 Commission. While the CIA says it ended the use of waterboarding by early 2003, the agency continued to use other "enhanced" methods involving pain, sleep deprivation and extended isolation—all of which have been branded as torture. The CIA insists that its interrogation methods were legal and approved by the White House.

Security experts and airline officials agree privately that the simultaneous hijacking of four jetliners was an "inside job," probably indicating complicity beyond malfeasance. This makes all the more ominous Tuesday's national catastrophe and its dismal consequences. Nobody was more vigorous Tuesday in demanding tough military reprisal against the terrorists than former Secretary of State Lawrence Eagleburger. However, he was virtually alone in directing his rage not only at the assassins but also at security arrangements. "I thought we had solved that problem (of air skyjackings)," he said.

Medical Professionals for 9/11 Truth
Sunday, 1 March 2009 11:17 P GMT-05
As medical professionals, we are trained in science and logical reasoning. We are appalled by the lack of scientific rigor and the substantial omissions and blatant distortions in the official account of 9/11 as embodied in the 9/11 Commission Report and related government documents. We are not alone in our concerns about the validity of the 9/11 Commission Report. A group of 25 senior U.S. intelligence services and law enforcement veterans sent a joint letter to the U.S. Congress expressing similar concerns and their desire for a new investigation. Several very senior CIA veterans have called the 9/11 Commission Report "a cover up" and "a joke" and have called for a new investigation. Several former Republican administration senior appointees have called for a new investigation. Several U.S. State Department veterans have called for a new investigation. And dozens of former senior U.S. military officers have also called for a new investigation.
Kill The Messenger
Saturday, 28 February 2009 6:11 P GMT-05
Most Americans have never heard of Sibel Edmonds, and if the U.S. government has its way, they never will. The former FBI translator turned whistleblower tells a chilling story of corruption at Washington’s highest levels—sale of nuclear secrets, shielding of terrorist suspects, illegal arms transfers, narcotics trafficking, money laundering, espionage. She may be a first-rate fabulist, but Edmonds’s account is full of dates, places, and names. And if she is to be believed, a treasonous plot to embed moles in American military and nuclear installations and pass sensitive intelligence to Israeli, Pakistani, and Turkish sources was facilitated by figures in the upper echelons of the State and Defense Departments. Her charges could be easily confirmed or dismissed if classified government documents were made available to investigators. But Congress has refused to act, and the Justice Department has shrouded Edmonds’s case in the state-secrets privilege, a rarely used measure so sweeping that it precludes even a closed hearing attended only by officials with top-secret security clearances. According to the Department of Justice, such an investigation “could reasonably be expected to cause serious damage to the foreign policy and national security of the United States.”

Daniele Ganser, scientist at the University of Basel lectures in several issues around 9/11 and is an important and credible voice in spreading the truth, especially about World Trade Center 7. His talks are very well visited and famous. Now, his latest book NATO's secret armies has been covered in german mass media as a "required reading". This is probably one of the best books about state-sponsored terrorism, even if it touches 9/11 only on the surface. The historical approach with several proven "flase flag" attacks during the cold war give even sceptics a good lecture in thinking about what governments are really capable of. Here is the television excerpt with subtitles:

Study: 9/11 lung problems persist years later
Sunday, 8 February 2009 3:29 P GMT-05
Experts have struggled since the 2001 attacks to find standards to define post-Sept. 11 illness and the time it would take to develop. The city's medical examiner recently added to the official victims' list a man who died in October of cancer and lung disease, citing his exposure to the dust cloud that enveloped the city when the 110-story towers collapsed. Mount Sinai's program has treated more than 26,000 people who were at the site or worked there in the days after Sept. 11. The study's authors noted that participants asked to be enrolled in the program and may have more health problems than others who were exposed but didn't enroll.
New York Times: The Political Suspicions of 9/11
Wednesday, 4 February 2009 3:58 A GMT-05
A coming episode of the acclaimed FX drama “Rescue Me” will tackle what may sound like a far-fetched plot line: that the attacks of Sept. 11 were an “inside job.” The actor who espouses the theories on camera, it turns out, also subscribes to them in real life. Claims that Al Qaeda terrorists were not solely responsible for the attacks have a lively following on the Internet, including on YouTube, but the second episode of “Rescue Me’s” fifth season, starting in April, may represent the first fictional presentation of 9/11 conspiracy theories by a mainstream media company (FX is operated by the News Corporation). “They’re not discussed a lot in the press,” Daniel Sunjata, the actor who plays Franco Rivera on “Rescue Me,” told reporters at a television press tour last month. He predicted that the episode would be “socio-politically provocative.”

Prosecute Bush and Company for their Criminal Negligence and Cover-Up Regarding 9/11
Thursday, 29 January 2009 11:59 A GMT-05
Is there strong evidence of criminal negligence with regard to the 9/11 attacks? Definitely. Is there strong evidence for a cover-up and destruction of evidence? Without doubt. See this and this. Now is the perfect time to prosecute criminal behavior. 9/11 is no exception. If the only politically feasible way to do it is to start with a prosecution solely for criminal negligence or cover-up, then start there.
Obama and 9/11
Tuesday, 27 January 2009 11:59 A GMT-05
Obama could even go as far in his thinking as Howard Zinn and Noam Chomsky, who have basically said that, even if Bush and Cheney and their henchmen were responsible for 9/11, it would be just another crime to add to a long list of crimes that have, in certain cases, also killed thousands—like the lies that, like a spider’s web, entrapped the American military in Iraq. 9/11 could just be standard operating procedure for the Empire, another “false flag” attack, like the Tonkin Gulf situation in Vietnam, staged to enlist public support for expanded military operations abroad; and a search for 9/11 truth will in the end be as fruitless as the search for the truth of JFK’s assassination. And even if, as with JFK, a majority of Americans come to believe that the US government is the prime suspect, nothing will ever come of this belief. I’ve had a number of conversations with liberal 9/11 truth skeptics, and my general impression has been that the primary reason they are skeptical of “conspiracy theory” (aside from their fear of ridicule) is that they don’t know very much about the subject.
You Tube Expands 9/11 Truth Purge
Saturday, 24 January 2009 5:34 P GMT-05
You Tube has permanently suspended another major 9/11 truth account in a continuation of the purge that began following efforts by the establishment to smear the 9/11 truth movement as terrorist propaganda. You Tube has previously been caught blocking 9/11 truth videos from entering into top ranking charts for both views and comments despite their enduring popularity. It also has a record of wanton censorship in deleting videos that are artistically crafted compilations and the furthest possible thing from copyright violation, such as the “Question Your Reality” video.
"Phantom Flight 11" Calls
Saturday, 24 January 2009 5:33 P GMT-05
I made YouTube videos of three calls on the NEADS tapes (channel 7). They are calls by Boston Center military liaison Colin Scoggins to NEADS about "Phantom Flight 11." The first two are mentioned in the 9/11 Commission report, but the third one isn't, so I guess that's the one that's really interesting. ;)
Richard Gage, AIA Publicly Thanks FBI for Endorsement of "Controlled Demolition" Analysis
Thursday, 22 January 2009 10:17 A GMT-05
Richard Gage, AIA founder of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth discusses a welcome letter of response from Michael J. Heimbach, Asst. Director in the FBI division of Counterterrorism. On Nov. 7th the FBI received a registered letter from Harold Saive - founder of Gators911Truth.org. Saive referenced evidence presented in Richard Gage's 2008 video release of "9/11: BLUEPRINT FOR TRUTH". On Dec 22, 2008, Saive received a letter of response from Michael J. Heimbach thanking Saive for "offering to provide information to the United States Government". Richard Gage comments during a conference call with Gators911Truth members to offer his vast resources to Heimbach's team in order to help the FBI with their job of investigating the crimes of mass murder on 9/11/2001.

Armed Forces Institute Of Pathology: Pentagon & Shanksville 9/11 Records Exempt From Disclosure
Tuesday, 13 January 2009 11:38 A GMT-05
The following is a September 10, 2008 Freedom of Information Act response from the U.S. Armed Forces Institute of Pathology (AFIP), regarding a request for records establishing the process of recovery and identification of forensic evidence from the crash scenes of American Airlines flight 77 in Arlington, VA and United Airlines flight 93 in Shanksville, PA on September 11, 2001. The records were deemed exempt from disclosure under U.S.C. § 552 (b)(7)(a) and (b)(7)(c) regarding law enforcement proceedings and privacy.

The Secret and (Very) Profitable World of Intelligence and Narcotrafficking
Sunday, 4 January 2009 4:44 A GMT-05
When the Taliban was routed by the U.S. during the initial phase of its 2001 invasion, Noorzai was entrusted with some $20 million of the Taliban's cash for "safekeeping," according to the History Commons. But Noorzai turned himself in to U.S. military forces where he spent several days in custody at Kandahar airport. Though questioned by U.S. officials, Noorzai was released and quietly disappeared into Pakistan after an associate was killed by U.S. forces. In a 2002 CBS News account, Noorzai reportedly said, "I spent my days and nights comfortably. There was special room for me. I was like a guest, not a prisoner." Eventually, Noorzai resurfaced in Peshawar. Armed with a Pakistani passport allegedly furnished by the ISI, the kingpin operated drug-processing laboratories that turned raw opium into finished "product," heroin bound for European and U.S. markets.
Warning of the collapse of the Twin Towers and more
Thursday, 1 January 2009 9:43 P GMT-05
One of the most startling stories to come out of 9-11 involves reports of individuals in the south tower (Building 2) who announced only moments after the first plane struck the north tower (Building 1) that it was safe to return to work. I have a particular interest in this issue, as only two years before 9-11, I worked for a short time at Fuji Bank, which occupied the offices where the second plane hit. During my stay, I participated in a fire drill in which the division I was working for walked down all 79 flights of stairs and exited the building, an exercise of the type the 9-11 Commission Report expressly denies ever occurred. [The 9-11 Commission Report, 2006, Barnes and Noble Pub., NY p. 280: "Deputy fire safety directors conducted fire drills at least twice a year." p. 281: "But during these drills, civilians were not directed into the stairwells, or provided with information about their configuration and about the existence of transfer hallways and smoke doors. Neither full nor partial evacuation drills were held."]
NIST Report on WTC7 debunked and exposed!

Nanothermites and WTC dust
Tuesday, 30 December 2008 1:58 A GMT-05
But I've also spent some time making nanothermites, and igniting them. Here is a slideshow of 26 photomicrographs, half of which are nanothermite residues and half of which are ferromagnetic particles extracted from WTC dust samples. These photos share many things in common, including the presence of metallic microspheres, vesicular formations and red-orange chips. Sometimes it's hard to remember which photo belongs to which category. If the nanothermite residues were mixed with concrete dust and glass fragments, it would likely be much more difficult to notice any differences.

We eased the audience in with the financial crisis, which led to discussion of the Fed, which then segued into false flag terrorism, and finally 9/11. We figured it would be more effective than hitting the audience hard with 9/11 stuff from the get-go.
James Risen: "9/11 was a fluke"
Wednesday, 17 December 2008 3:48 P GMT-05
Bush likes to tout the fact that there has not been another domestic terror attack since Sept. 11, 2001, as justification for his extreme and perhaps illegal policies, like the warrantless eavesdropping on Americans that Risen and Times colleague Eric Lichtblau first revealed. Risen scoffed at this excuse, comparing it to a joke about a man who puts a "No Elephants" sign in his backyard and credits it with keeping the creatures away. "I think the basic storyline is going to be in the long run that 9/11 was a fluke," Risen said in an interview with the American News Project. "They got lucky. We weren't really ready or prepared to deal with an operation like that; it was really a failure of imagination." Risen said he was skeptical that Bush would pursue a war with Iraq -- another decision the president credits with avoiding another attack -- if he knew in 2003 everything that is known today.

Why Noam Chomsky is Dead Wrong About 911!
Thursday, 11 December 2008 2:46 P GMT-05
Noam, you have, in fact, said that the crime of 911 should not be investigated. If 911 should not be investigated than no crime should be investigated. If no crime should be investigated, then the rule of law means nothing. You have granted to Bush and other known criminals and terrorists arbitrary, illogical and illegal exceptions to the rule of law. The consequences are disastrous. The 'rule of law' applies to all or it applies to none!
Tortured Patsies “Confess” To 9/11
Wednesday, 10 December 2008 2:30 P GMT-05
The new set of “confessions” will hold about as much credibility of those of purported “9/11 mastermind” Khalid Sheik Mohammed when he first spilled the beans in March 2007, After only five years of torture, KSM confessed to nearly everything under the sun, only stopping short at accepting responsibility for killing Kennedy, creating AIDS and being the real Santa Claus. Indeed, KSM was so keen on never seeing a cattle prod again that he even confessed to being responsible for attacking banks that were founded after his arrest, seemingly invoking the power of long range telekinesis to commit his dastardly deeds.

In conclusion, I'd like to say that yes, we may very well be wrong. On the other hand, we may very well be right. If we are right, and I'm certain that we are, at least about SOME of it, would you Pat Curley, would you Mark Roberts, would you Ron Wieck, would you James Bennett, would you Troy Sexton, would you Jim Miegs, would you Michael Shermer, would you Chip Berlet, would you members of JREF... would you... would you... hmmm... are there any more debunkers than that? Would you admit you were wrong? Would you apologize to all of the families you have disrespected? Would you apologize to all of the first responders you have disrespected? Would you apologize to all of the sincere members of the 9/11 Truth Movement you have either slandered, harassed, and/or threatened? Either by directly taking part in these acts, or by promoting them? Would you apologize to the 9/11 Truth Movement for trying to paint us all as crazies by focusing on the fringiest of the fringe? Would you? Of course not so stop pretending like you know anything about 9/11 because you certainly do not.

Charges Dropped Against 9/11 Rescue Worker due to Hero Status
Wednesday, 3 December 2008 7:42 P GMT-05
A Long Island judge has dismissed charges of driving under the influence and illegally possessing a weapon against a 9/11 rescue worker, citing the man's status as an "American hero." "The Court notes with admiration the Defendant's lengthy service to his country and to his community, and acknowledges the many letters and documents concerning his outstanding service on September 11, 2001 and his injuries," District Court Judge Paul M. Hensley of Suffolk County wrote in People v. McCormack, 06SU51940. "[T]he Court finds that the Defendant has demonstrated the existence of compelling factors, considerations or circumstances which show that his prosecution or conviction upon the accusatory instruments herein would constitute an injustice."

Jonathan Kay on the humbling frustrations of debating 9/11 "Truthers"
Monday, 27 October 2008 10:10 P GMT-05
I could lie to Mr. Hansen, and to my readers, and tell them that I’ve read the U.S. government’s 571-page 9/11 Commission Report, or Popular Mechanics magazine’s authoritative report on “Debunking the 9/11 Myths.” But the truth is that I haven’t. I never felt the need to because, on a purely instinctive level, I always believed the Truthers’ case was complete nonsense. I don’t believe any group of people — let alone any group of people in government — could possibly pull off such a fantastically elaborate plot as 9/11, one involving hundreds, if not thousands of conspirators, without being definitively outed many times over. If 9/11 truly had been a U.S. government conspiracy, dozens of collaborators would have come forward by now for their multi-million dollar book deals; the mainstream media, always desperate for a scoop (trust me), would have broken the story open long ago; and respectable peer-reviewed journals would have published the work of professionals debunking the official account of the World Trade Center’s destruction.
Sept. 11 First Responders To Visit W. Va. School
Monday, 27 October 2008 8:41 P GMT-05
John Feal, founding president of the FealGood Foundation and a demolition expert who worked at Ground Zero following the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, will bring his message to Upshur County students and residents on Friday, Oct. 24. Feal and up to seven other first responders will meet with students at Buchannon Upshur High School beginning at 8:30 a.m. The group will meet with the community later in the day. Feal, like 70 percent of 9/11 workers, suffers from post-9/11 illnesses. One of his feet had to be amputated after being crushed by an eight-ton steel beam. He also suffers from a respiratory syndrome called World Trade Center Cough and posttraumatic stress disorder. Feal agreed to visit West Virginia after some Buckhannon-Upshur High School students contacted him via e-mail after watching a documentary in health educator Mateal Poling’s class. The documentary, Save the Brave, chronicles the daily struggles of 9/11 Ground Zero workers in the seven years since the attacks. Greg Quibell, one of the men featured, died of his injuries the day before the film’s premiere in New York. “You have no idea how excited they were when Feal replied -- me too,” Poling said. “It is hard to imagine that these kids were only first and second graders on 9/11, but thanks to Feal’s efforts, our students are starting to have a better understanding of the profound effects of that day.”

The Facts Speak For Themselves
Sunday, 26 October 2008 9:14 P GMT-05
Before I begin, I would like to say that theorizing about what happened on 9/11, when you're not being given answers to your questions about that day by the people who SHOULD be able to do so, is PERFECTLY normal. As is suspecting that the reason these answers aren't being given is "sinister" in nature. As Ray McGovern said, "for people to dismiss these questioners as "conspiratorial advocates", or "conspiratorial theorists"... that's completely out of line because the... The questions remain because the President who should be able to answer them, WILL NOT." When you think about everything this Administration has done in almost 8 years, the idea that they might not be giving us the answers we seek because of something "sinister" is not crazy. In fact, it's the most logical conclusion one can come to at this point. After seven plus years of obfuscation, spin, lies, and cover-ups regarding the 9/11 attacks, it is unavoidable to think that criminal complicity is the reason why. That being said, we have not proven it beyond the shadow of doubt. We do not have documentation that shows they planned it. We do not have a signed confession from someone. We have pieces of the puzzle, and to most of us that have been doing this a long time, those pieces point to more than just Osama Bin Laden, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, and 19 hijackers. If we could somehow download all of our knowledge to every person on the planet, this fight would be over tomorrow. However, we can't do that. I wish we could. I wish the media would DO THEIR JOB. But, they're not. Therefore, we have to be smart with how we approach people. This is America, and in America, you are innocent until proven guilty. As I have often said, we don't need to come up with a narrative (theory) because our facts speak for themselves. I am going to do my very best to prove my point. A lot of these facts are from mainstream news outlets. Yes, they do report the news, but they DO NOT put the pieces together, they DO NOT ask the tough questions over and over again until they get an answer, they DO NOT give these facts the atte ntion they should, reminiscent of the attention that Britney Spears, Scott Peterson, The Aruba Murders, and The Swift Boat Veterans got, and they DO NOT portray us in any other light except as "Conspiracy Theorists."

WeAreChange Debunks the BBC part 2 - A Call to Action
Thursday, 23 October 2008 11:27 A GMT-05
Mike Rudin, producer of the BBC 9/11 Hit-piece 'The Third Tower', recently posted an article called 'Caught up in a conspiracy theory', in response to a video I put out - WeAreChange Debunks the BBC at Ground Zero 9/11/08. In the article, he does not deny (or even attempt to explain, in some instances), the glaring misrepresentations, distortions, and omission that we called him out on at Ground Zero. He does not apologize (as many have called for) for repeatedly exhibiting poor journalistic ethics while covering the most controversial and important issue of our time. Instead he continues to dishonor the victims of 9/11 and insult the intelligence of the BBC audience by digging a deeper hole. Very well Mike Rudin, so be it.
In the Public Spotlight, Chicago, IL and the Web: the Legitimacy of 9/11 Questions
Thursday, 16 October 2008 11:15 A GMT-05
North Shore Democratic congressional candidate Dan Seals' campaign on Tuesday defended using an Iraq War veteran with ties to the 9/11 conspiracy movement in a new TV ad attacking Republican U.S. Rep. Mark Kirk for supporting the war. Seals spokeswoman Elisabeth Smith said she didn't "really see what is so controversial" about using Caleb Davis in the ad. Davis, 25, is a Peoria native who spent five months in Iraq as an Army diver and got an honorable discharge in 2004. Last June, the Peoria Journal Star reported that Davis wore a black T-shirt proclaiming "Investigate 9/ 11@911truth.org" while sitting at a table at a Peoria library where books, fliers and DVDs supporting conspiracy theories about the 9/11 attacks were on display. The organization argues the government's version of the terrorist attacks is fraudulent and offers a "Top 40 Reasons to Doubt the Official Story" and an "Official Coverup Guide." Kirk, who was in the Pentagon when the airplane crashed into it Sept. 11, 2001, called on Seals to stop airing the ad. "I am disappointed that you would center your campaign on a spokesman who believes the U.S. government murdered nearly 3,000 of its own citizens," Kirk said in his Monday letter to Seals, a Wilmette resident who is challenging Kirk again after coming close in 2006. Smith said Tuesday that Seals has no plans to pull the ad and said the focus should be on the ad's contention that Kirk supported the war and hasn't done enough to help veterans. The 30-second ad does not identify Davis by name. Seals' media consultant Ann Liston, whose firm produced the ad, said the campaign "could have, but we felt he is one soldier, but he also represents the voice of many. It was more of a choice, than a strategic decision." Davis declined to talk to the Tribune. In an e-mail released through the Seals campaign, Davis denied any official affiliation with members of 911truth.org. He also said he does not doubt that Al Qaeda terrorists were responsible for the 9/11 attacks.

Philip Zelikow Had 9/11 Report Rewritten To Be More Favorable Of Condi
Thursday, 9 October 2008 11:24 P GMT-05
9/11 Commission Executive Director Philip Zelikow tells the staff team working on the Bush administration’s response to terrorist threats in the summer of 2001 that their drafts must be rewritten to cast National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice in a better light. Rice’s testimony about the administration’s prioritizing of terrorism has been contradicted by former counterterrorism “tsar” Richard Clarke, who said that al-Qaeda was not a high priority for the White House. The commission staffers think that Clarke is telling the truth, because, in the words of author Philip Shenon, Clarke had left a “vast documentary record” about the White House’s inattention to terrorism. Clarke’s account is also corroborated by other National Security Council (NSC) members, the CIA, and the State Department.
FBI Prevents Agents from Telling 'Truth' About 9/11 on PBS

The FBI denied Rossini and Miller permission to participate in the book or the PBS “NOVA” documentary, which is also being written and produced by Bamford, on grounds that the FBI “doesn’t want to stir up old conflicts with the CIA,” according to multiple reliable sources. Bamford, contacted by phone, said he could not comment because his publisher has embargoed his new book for release around Oct. 10.
9/11 Truth Norway: 9/11 Truth nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize 2008
Sunday, 5 October 2008 10:58 P GMT-05
In recent years, however, the 9/11 Truth Movement and their outstanding academic David Ray Griffin presented strong evidence that the attacks of 11 September were not carried out by Islamist terrorists, as we have been told, but by a U.S. 'war lite' as an excuse to go to war against Afghanistan and Iraq (wars that were already approved). David Ray Griffin and the 9/11 Truth Movement have presented convincing evidence showing that this 'war elite' carried out these attacks to establish a new enemy after the Cold War, and to start wars in line with their economic and political interests. We believe the most important contribution to peace in the 21st century is the disclosure of these elite political games and the removal of the false reasons for its aggressive wars. This Griffin and the 9/11 Truth Movement have done in an excellent way. If the attack on 11 September was a U.S. 'false flag operation' to justify wars in the Middle East, the disclosure of that fact should be honored with the Nobel Peace Prize. We therefore nominate this David Ray Griffin and the 9/11 Truth Movement to share the Nobel Peace Prize for 2008.
$700 billion is nothing

Voters are rightly furious at the proposal to spend $700,000,000,000 that the government doesn't have to bail out Wall Street bankers who created the current economic crisis in the first place. But why then aren't we concerned about the trillions of dollars the Federal Reserve is pumping into the system? Or the trillions missing from the Pentagon? Or the quadrillion dollar derivatives bubble. For more news and economic analysis, visit: http://www.corbettreport.com
9/11 Truth Holds One-Year Anniversary Meeting
Saturday, 4 October 2008 5:28 P GMT-05
People from throughout the Des Moines area, as far as Ames, Ankeny and Altoona, signed their names to a mailing list in the lobby, all curious about what the group's about. In fact, almost 200 people filled the seats to watch "Zero: An Investigation Into 9-11" on the big screen, which inspired an uproarious applause when the lights came on. The documentary film, produced by Italian company Telemaco, explores witness testimonies backed by scientific evidence which directly conflicts with the U.S. government's account of 9-11. In the film, interviewees, ranging from college professors, architects, a Nobel-prize winner and eye-witness survivors, tell a different tale than the "9-11 Commissioners Report."
9/11 Truth in New Video About Bailout

The Corbett Report has created a new video explaining why people should be angry about more than just the proposed $700 billion bailout of Wall Street. One reason, of course, is the $2.3 trillion missing from the Pentagon the day before 9/11, when the Pentagon's Budget Analyst Office was destroyed. Watch the video below:
U.S. DOT "On-Time" Records Of Final Flights Performed By 9/11 Aircraft Apparently Unavailable
Wednesday, 1 October 2008 2:03 A GMT-05
The following is correspondence received from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Bureau of Transportation Statistics and the Office of Airline Information regarding requested information of the final flights of the 4 aircraft reportedly involved in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Of particular interest is the final "on-time" information for American Airlines flight 77 (N644AA) and United Airlines flight 93 (N591UA). Final "on-time" information for each aircraft could eventually be compared with similar information contained by the Flight Data Recorders (FDRs) for each aircraft in order to better determine the authenticity of the information attributed to each FDR. The NTSB refuses to provide unencrypted information from these FDRs, which would also include final "on-time" information for each aircraft for flights performed before September 11, 2001.
The "Congress Is Shameful" 9/11 First Responder Fund-Raiser
Wednesday, 1 October 2008 1:58 A GMT-05
Do you see this? Do you see it? Make sure you look at it REALLY hard. The FealGood Foundation went through the trouble of making a movie called "Save The Brave" for the purposes of influencing our elected officials in Washington D.C. so they pass a bill to make sure they get the help they need. Instead, they cared more about bailing out the Wall Street "fat cats," than helping our heroes at a time when they need us. Just as we needed them. That is unforgivable. But what should we expect from a Congress that cares more about the corporations than the people?

These findings suggest that ANY EXISTING building is prone to a progressive collapse if a fire should start and the sprinkler system fails for whatever reason – regardless of how it starts! This is a distinct possibility, especially in earthquake prone areas where the water supplies can easily fail and the availability of firefighters is scarce or stretched very thin.
The ultimate purpose of advocating for the $16 million to have NIST study this event was to determine how to make buildings safer in the future. If we are now to believe that any skyscraper is subject to total collapse from fire, why isn't NIST emphasizing the impact on EXISTING buildings? The actual quality of spray-on fireproofing is a well-known problem throughout the country. NIST's report indicates that a complete burnout, without sprinkler system or fire department intervention, could lead to the complete collapse of ANY high-rise. NIST needs to rewrite its "new" recommendation B (5.12) and provide guidance for EXISTING buildings.
NIST should put the most important conclusion in plain English and announce it to the entire country: UNCONTROLLED FIRES IN HIGH-RISE BUILDINGS CAN LEAD TO THEIR TOTAL COLLAPSE.
NIST also needs to be more aggressive with the code writing groups regarding this critical fact, communicating with them through a high-profile meeting that includes the Director of NIST and the leaders of these code groups.

Visibility 9-11 Welcomes Constitutional Expert Michael Badnarik
Tuesday, 23 September 2008 10:50 A GMT-05
This week Visibility 9-11 welcomes Constitutional expert Michael Badnarik. Mr. Badnarik ran for President of the United States in 2004 and was actually arrested when he dared to cross police lines in protest of being excluded from the Presidential debates of 2004. He also teaches an 8 hour class as an introduction to the Constitution and has written a book about the Constitution titled Good to be King; Foundations of Freedom. For more information, visit Michael's website at Constitution Preservation. This interview includes a frank discussion about the usurpation's of the Constitution since 9-11 through the USA PATRIOT Act and the Military Commissions Act, George Orwell, and some of Mr. Badnarik's doubts about the official story of 9-11 and his support for a new investigation.

7 Years Later, 9/11 Hijackers' Remains Are In Limbo
Sunday, 21 September 2008 2:57 P GMT-05
Neither the Federal Bureau of Investigation, which holds the remains of the nine hijackers whose planes hit the Pentagon and crashed in a field in Somerset County, Pa., nor the New York City medical examiner’s office, which holds the remains of 4 of the 10 hijackers who flew planes into the World Trade Center buildings, has policies to deal with such a request. “If and when it comes up, we’ll address it then,” an F.B.I. spokesman, Richard Kolko, said. The bureau could turn down such requests, Mr. Kolko said, because the Sept. 11 investigation is an open case... But, since the DNA profiles were unnamed by the bureau, the office could not say which hijackers have been identified, just that 4 of the 10 have been so far.

David Ray Griffin: The 9/11 Interview with Michael Hess: Evidence that NIST Lied about When He and Barry Jennings Were Rescued
Friday, 19 September 2008 11:23 A GMT-05
Shortly after the first strike on the World Trade Center, which occurred at 8:46 AM on 9/11, Michael Hess, New York City’s corporation counsel, and Barry Jennings, the deputy director of the Emergency Services Department of the New York City Housing Authority, headed to the Office of Emergency Management’s Emergency Operating Center, which was on the 23rd floor of WTC 7, where they assumed that Mayor Rudy Giuliani would be. But when Hess and Jennings arrived, the place was empty. Jennings then telephoned someone to ask what they should do and was told that they should leave immediately. Finding that the elevators would not work, they started down the stairs. When they reached the sixth floor, however, there was a powerful explosion beneath them, which, Jennings told the makers of Loose Change Final Cut, [1] caused the landing on which they were standing to give way. Making their way back up to the eighth floor, they were able to break a window and call for help. Hess later reported: “[W]e were trapped on the eighth floor with smoke, thick smoke, all around us, for about an hour and a half [before] the New York Fire Department . . . came and got us out.” [2] Hess made this statement while being interviewed by Frank Ucciardo of UPN 9 News “on Broadway about a block from City Hall,” almost a half mile from WTC 7. This interview began before noon, most likely at 11:34. The conclusion that it began at 11:34 is based on evidence derived from a DVD containing UPN 9 programs from that morning, in which the Hess interview begins at the 57-minute mark. According to a note on the DVD itself, its video began at 10:37 AM, which would mean that the Hess interview began at 11:34. It is possible, however, that the video might have actually started at 11:00: At the 111-minute mark, the UPN 9 program switched to live coverage by CNN of a Taliban news conference, and the only reference we have been able to find to this coverage indicates that it began at 12:51.[3] This would mean that the video began at 11:00 and the Hess interview, therefore, at 11:57. Nevertheless, whether the earlier or the later starting time is correct, UPN 9 News began interviewing Michael Hess before noon.
Coincidences of Building 7 and 9/11

Scientists, Scholars, Architects & Engineers respond to NIST
Tuesday, 16 September 2008 5:57 A GMT-05
I am writing on behalf of a group of scientists, scholars, engineers and building professionals who are dedicated to scientific research regarding the destruction of all three high-rise buildings (WTC 1, 2 and 7) on September 11, 2001. We have examined the draft reports recently released by NIST purporting to explain the demise of WTC Building 7 (collectively referred to herein as the “Report”). We have found many areas that need to be revised and re-examined by NIST personnel before they release a final report on this matter. We have provided our names and affiliations at the end of this document, in accordance with the guidelines for submittal of comments promulgated by NIST at (http://wtc.nist.gov/media/comments2008.html). At the outset, we would like to call attention to the fact that we requested a reasonable extension of time for the public to submit comments. Given the rate at which we were finding incorrect or contradictory statements in the Report, we would likely have found many more areas NIST needs to re-examine before issuing a final report. As we pointed out in our original correspondence with you requesting the extension, the original three week deadline was completely unreasonable. First, it took NIST more than three years to compile this 1000+ page Report. Why, then, were members of the public only given three weeks in which to comment? Moreover, NIST lists ten authors and dozens of contracted and employed staff, which over the three year investigation would yield somewhere in the neighborhood of 200,000 man-hours of labor. How did NIST expect members of the public to match or even come close to NIST's labor expenditure in three weeks? This first reason alone was enough to warrant a significant extension in the deadline for public comment. Second, in NIST’s "Questions and Answers" page (http://www.nist.gov/public_affairs/factsheet/wtc_qa_082108.html), NIST has attempted to refute many of the points that members of our group and others have made regarding the WTC 7 destruction. However, NIST did not provide any references to sections of the Report that support its alleged refutations. How is a member of the public, then, able to verify NIST’s refutation without reading through the entire 1000+ page Report? Our comments are directed to many of the areas addressed in the "Questions and Answers" page, and without citations directly to the Report itself, it was extremely difficult and time consuming for us see whether our main criticisms of the NIST theory of collapse have been adequately addressed in the Report. This is especially true in light of the fact that this latest draft Report is the third different story NIST has come up with.
Scientists: "Unusual Magnetic Forces" Caused Twin Towers Collapse

Mr Dudarev can explain why jet fuel fires burning in isolated pockets for minutes caused two of the world's tallest steel buildings to completely collapse into their own footprints at freefall speed, pulverizing concrete and leaving flowing underground rivers of molten metal lasting for weeks. And the answer is... "Unusual magnetic forces"... IDIOTS, how could you not have worked it out?

Report : United for Truth March Brussels 2008
Tuesday, 9 September 2008 11:08 A GMT-05
On Sunday 7th September, about 400 protestors marched in Brussels during the second edition of the United for Truth March. Despite the bad weather and the fact that the March took place during the same day as another popular event, the the Belt (Belgian cycling event for the family), the number of protestors had doubled since the first edition of 2007. But measured against the enormous amount of work that went before it – months of campaigning in which literally thousands of posters had been put up – and the fact that the UFT-website announced that there would be at least 475 marchers, one cannot really say it was a tremendous success.
What Really Happened on September 11?
Tuesday, 9 September 2008 10:46 A GMT-05
On September 11, I entertained a couple of house guests, senior journalists from Scandinavia. I remember watching in horror and disbelief the unfolding drama, as the United States was being subjected to multiple deadly attacks on-screen. I turned to the international affairs editor of a major Danish paper and told her "This could not have been done by al-Qaida." I am an Israeli and, as such, I have a fair "sixth sense" as to the capabilities of terrorists and their potential reach. Enter David Ray Griffin. I was introduced to him by a mutual acquaintance. He is emeritus professor of philosophy of religion and theology at Claremont School of Theology and Claremont Graduate University. He has published over 30 books, including eight about 9/11, the best known of which is "The New Pearl Harbor Revisited: 9/11, the Cover-Up, and the Expose". On the face of it, his credentials with regards to intelligence analysis are hardly relevant, let alone impressive. But, to underestimate him would be a grave error. Being a philosopher, he is highly trained and utterly qualified to assess the credibility of data; the validity and consistency of theories (including conspiracy theories); and the rationality and logic of hypotheses. These qualifications made him arguably the most visible and senior member of what came to be known as the 9/11 Truth Movement. In our exchange, he proved to be tolerant of dissenting views, open to debate, and invariably possessed of rigorous thinking. Still, while the 9/11 Truth Movement has succeeded to cast doubts on the official version of the events of September 11 (correctly labeled by Griffin: "the official conspiracy theory"), it failed, in my view, to present a compelling case in support of the alternative conspiracy theory much favored by many of its members: that the Bush administration was behind the attacks, one way or the other. Judge for yourselves.

Documentary Dedicated To Late 9/11 First Responder
Sunday, 31 August 2008 2:58 P GMT-05
Racked by pain and the ravages of leukemia, first responder Gregory Quibell of North Babylon allowed film crews to record poignant moments of his life. For weeks, his visits to doctors and his struggles to pay medical bills were captured for a documentary called "Save the Brave," which premiered last night at the Bellmore Theatre in Bellmore. The film's opening is dedicated to Quibell, 53, who died Wednesday night at his home, friends said. The film features three other first responders living with Sept. 11-related illnesses. "The movie had no actors in it. They were real-life heroes," said John Feal, the film's producer, who is president of the nonprofit FealGood Foundation and advocates for sick Sept. 11 responders. "Greg is proof that heroes are dying, and it's unacceptable." The three others featured in "Save the Brave" are former New York City firefighter John McNamara of Shirley, former FDNY chief Jim Riches of Brooklyn and former emergency services worker Charlie Giles of Barnegat, N.J.

Questions asked at NIST's WTC 7 briefing
Wednesday, 27 August 2008 3:46 A GMT-05
My third question, about the high-temperature corrosion and sulfidation of a WTC 7 steel member-- reported in Appendix C of the FEMA report -- was not read... AFAIK -- I say this because, after my second question was read and answered, the feed of the Briefing to my computer failed, and I could not get re-connected... Sundar spoke about this beam briefly in remarks, but I found he represented Barnett's explanation that gypsum COULD possibly have caused sulifdation as a given, rather than an untested hypothesis. In other words, THAT hypothesis was taken as completely credible without experimental tests, no problem... What has happened to science and critical thinking?

How Old-fashioned: the Fairness Doctrine ... WTC7, NIST, and the Media Today
Sunday, 24 August 2008 7:00 P GMT-05
After reviewing some of the more than 400 mainstream media articles written yesterday about the NIST final report on the collapse of WTC 7, it is easy to get the impression that no credible alternative explanations exist. Why would any American question the NIST report? They have no exposure to opposing views expressed by professional engineers and architects. It is as if none exist if you rely on the mainstream media. Only two outlets quoted members of the professional organization, AE911truth.org. More outlets quoted me than reputable scientists. Go figure. While many of the reports mentioned that NIST dismissed the possibility that explosives were used, not one outlet reported that NIST failed to perform a single scientific test for explosive residue. NIST ruled out the use of explosives because "...the noise associated with such an explosion would have been ten times louder than being in front of the speakers at a rock concert...". There you have it--government funded science at its best. NIST also claimed that no loud noise was heard by witnesses. I guess they did not have access to the oral histories from the New York Fire Department made public after suit by the New York Times, the source for the quote by NIST that there were no witness reports of loud noises. There goes that liberal media again, always attacking the Bush administration at every possible turn. Yesterday, while we were listening to the press conference hosted by AE911truth.org, we received many calls from media outlets inquiring about our take on what the NIST presented. We provided these "journalists" with the number for the conference call and suggested they contact members of AE911truth.org to get the perspective of professional, credentialed engineers and architects. After reviewing the media accounts of how the WTC 7 mystery is now solved, it is apparent that not one of these "journalists" chose to report what these professionals had to say. Based on the misquoted snippet from 911truth.org interviews on the subject, it is clear they neither listened to the press conference nor contacted any of the structural engineers or architects to whom they were referred. In the two and a half years as media coordinator for 911truth.org, I have learned that the reality created by the media is anything but fair and balanced. The producer of CNN's Showbiz Tonight demonstrated more intellectual curiosity about why we continue to raise questions than most of the journalists I have encountered. Earlier in the year, I received a call from a show producer at WOR radio in New York City, asking if I would go on the show to debate the host. I asked how much time we had for the debate. He said, without skipping a beat, 5 minutes. What kind of debate about the complex events of 9/11 can take place in 5 minutes? I accepted the offer on the condition that they play a few short sound bites I would supply in advance so that, at the very least, we would have a few specific issues to discuss. Here are the clips I sent for them to choose from, which include: President Bush at a town hall meeting, Ohio Senator Mark Dayton, Charlie Rose and 9/11 Commission Chairman Thomas Kean, Secretary of Transportation Norman Minetta and Commissioner Hamilton, Commissioner Ben Veniste questioning Condaleeza Rice, Missouri Representative Ike Skelton, Chris Matthews and Representative Dana Rohrabacher, George Tenet. Listen here. On the morning of the debate, the producer called to let me know that we were going ahead with the "debate" but the station would not play the sound bites. He told me that I could read the text of the sound bites but station management would not let me "program" the show. So let me get this straight, I can read what President Bush repeated at two publicly televised town hall meetings recounting his experience on the morning of 9/11 but the citizens of New York City could not hear him say it in his own words. When I suggested the possibility of media bias, he then told me the "host of the show did not know how to respond to the sound bites."
NIST WTC 7 Report: Shameful, Embarrassing And Completely Flawed
Saturday, 23 August 2008 9:12 P GMT-05
NIST completely fails to address prior knowledge of the building’s collapse, including why news outlets like the BBC and CNN reported that the building had collapsed an hour before it actually fell, as well as firefighters on the scene who are heard on video saying, “Keep your eye on that building, it’ll be coming down soon.” If the collapse of WTC 7 came as a result of a “new phenomenon” and an “extraordinary event” that had never happened before in the history of building collapses, then why did news stations and ground zero workers know it was about to happen a hour or more in advance?

Unfortunately, seven years later I am still asking the same questions. My yearning for answers as to why my only brother, Kenneth Zelman, was taken from me at 36 years old has proven to be a double-edge sword. If I question anything about the official Sept. 11 story, I am called a conspiracy theorist.
WTC 7's OEM Bunker Unmanned on 9/11
Sunday, 17 August 2008 8:37 P GMT-05
In 1999, NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani constructed a $13 million emergency command retreat on the 23rd floor of World Trade Center Building 7—an armored, self-contained facility designed to provide a safe haven for leadership in the event of a natural disaster or terrorist attack. But several first responders interviewed after 9/11 claim that the Office of Emergency Management’s Emergency Operations Center (OEMEOC) was empty and “deactivated” as early as 9AM on the morning of September 11th, a time when just such an emergency was in full swing.
The BBC's Demolition of 9/11 Truth
Wednesday, 13 August 2008 2:37 A GMT-05
You know, I’ve known 9/11 ‘truthers’ to be persistent, pushy, even obnoxious on occasion, but I have never known them to be violent or threatening. Quite the contrary. I’ve also never heard them accuse Controlled Demolition, Inc. of being bombers, just compliant clean up men. I’m also concerned that the words terror and terrorist are being tossed about too frequently these days, especially by Bush backer types like Loizeaux. Controlled Demolition, Inc. is a major contributor to the RNC and has done lots of mop up jobs for the federal government, Oklahoma City for one. Richard Gage puts it best: “Mark Loizeaux is not unbiased… he doesn’t want to lose his top clients.” When BBC reporter Jane Standley announced, live, on air, that WTC 7 had collapsed twenty minutes before it actually did, 9/11 ‘truthers’ naturally took notice. “It was very upsetting about a year ago because of the level of persecution and the virulence in which I was spoken about.” This may have been true but I never heard a word about the reporter herself. It was the BBC that got the attention. “[It’s] just very unfortunate that this whole …rather ridiculous situation has grown out of what’s really a very small and very honest mistake.” Yes, but, honest mistake or not, when a 47 storey building just fell out of the sky for no good reason and you announced it before it happened, people are likely to point it out.
Tape: Top CIA official confesses order to forge Iraq-9/11 letter came on White House stationery
Saturday, 9 August 2008 7:55 P GMT-05
A forged letter linking Saddam Hussein to the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks was ordered on White House stationery and probably came from the office of Vice President Dick Cheney, according to a new transcript of a conversation with the Central Intelligence Agency's former Deputy Chief of Clandestine Operations Robert Richer. The transcript was posted Friday by author Ron Suskind of an interview conducted in June. It comes on the heels of denials by both the White House and Richer of a claim Suskind made in his new book, The Way of The World. The book was leaked to Politico's Mike Allen on Monday, and released Tuesday.
Environmental anomalies at the World Trade Center: evidence for energetic materials
Tuesday, 5 August 2008 1:48 A GMT-05
Abstract Investigators monitoring air quality at the World Trade Center, after the September 11th attacks, found extremely high levels of volatile organic chemicals as well as unusual species that had never been seen before in structure fires. Data collected by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency indicate striking spikes in levels of benzene, styrene, and several other products of combustion. These spikes occurred on specific dates in October and November 2001, and February 2002. Additionally, data collected by researchers at the University of California Davis showed similar spikes in the levels of sulfur and silicon compounds, and certain metals, in aerosols. To better explain these data, as well as the unusual detection of 1,3-diphenylpropane, the presence of energetic nanocomposites in the pile at Ground Zero is hypothesized.
Utah Congressmen Mailed "9/11 Conspiracies", Hand Them Over To Capitol Police

Apparently not accepting the government's version of events surrounding 9/11 may land you in trouble with the cops if you're writing from Utah. Questioning the collapse of WTC 7 for example, an incident that was totally ignored by the 9/11 Commission Report, could get you reported. Asking your elected representative how he or she thinks a man dying from kidney failure in a cave half way across the world was able to organize four breeches of U.S. air defenses in one day might embroil you in a police investigation.

Jason Robo, 26, a Worcester native who now attends college in California, was boarding flight 1165 to Salt Lake City at, Utah at Boston’s Logan Airport when multiple passengers observed that Robo was behaving nervously. Witnesses said that Robo left his seat and entered the plane’s lavatory. When a flight attendant entered the lavatory upon Robo’s exit, she found an adhesive address label that read, “9/11 was an Inside Job! PrisonPlanet.com” affixed to the sink area. The flight attendant also found a second sticker on the fold-down tray near his seat and informed the pilot. That is when Robo ran off the plane after telling another flight attendant, “I have to get off this plane right now.”
9/11 Truth and the Tuskegee 40 Year Coverup
Saturday, 2 August 2008 4:35 P GMT-05
The Tuskegee “experiment” victimized 399 black men and many suffered and died as a direct result. On 9/11, thousands of people of all colors, including white, were mass murdered, some dying horribly painful deaths. Thousands more will die as a direct result of Christie Todd Whitman and the EPA’s lies (OK’d by Condoleeza Rice) about the air being safe to breathe; if you’re white, your skin color will not save you, and neither will our “representatives”. Given that another massive terror attack- perhaps multiple dirty bombs in US cities- is a possibility and may be the pretext for instituting martial law and completely destroying the US Republic and our Constitution, is it not imperative that the 9/11 events be fully investigated, when what we’ve been told is so obviously not the truth? Given that the neocons keep threatening Americans with another attack and are lusting for war with Iran, can we afford to wait 40 years to find out if the truth about 9/11 is that it was an inside job and it’s being covered up? Should not all those responsible for the success of the attacks be exposed and held accountable? A truth and reconciliation commission may be the best way to reveal all parties who had foreknowledge of the 9/11 attacks and facilitated their success, as well as institute the reforms that will be necessary to prevent future attacks being enabled by policy makers and elite power brokers. In an environment where whistleblowers and those who turn state’s evidence are the ones who have immunity and protection, instead of corrupt “elites”, it is likely more people will come forward. According to Sibel Edmonds, who has gone on to found the National Security Whistleblowers Coalition, many of her colleagues in the field of national security want to testify, but they will not do so unless subpoenaed; if Congress cannot be counted on to be supportive of hearings, if the media cannot be counted on to publish and broadcast the unspun truth, if protection from retaliation is not offered, what incentive do they have to come forward with evidence of corruption and malfeasance by public officials and powerful private interests who can ruin their reputations and careers, even harm them and their families? The least the American People can do to show potential whistleblowers they have our support is with non-violent demands and actions, raising our voices in the streets and online, in support of public hearings, full disclosure and real accountability.

Boston Helps NY/911 Truth Collect Signatures
Saturday, 26 July 2008 3:45 P GMT-05
It was not difficult to collect signatures, as many New Yorkers are well-informed about 9/11 and like to engage in political discussions. At least half of those asked to sign were not NYC registered voters and so were ineligible to sign. Of those eligible perhaps one in four would agree to sign.

More than a movement -- the search for 9/11 truth is an awakening
Tuesday, 22 July 2008 2:54 A GMT-05
Even more striking has been the rich diversity in religious and, yes, even political backgrounds. My survey has attracted fundamentalist Christians, as well as Catholics, Jews, Mormons, agnostics, and those with more eclectic religious or spiritual leanings. In politics, respondents have in no way been limited to the ranks of Progressives, Greens, or Libertarians. I’ve compiled profiles from Independents, mainstream Democrats, and several Republicans, including those who, pre-catching the 9/11 truth wave, voted for Bush in 2000 and even ’04! If we’re all nuts, it’s one hell of a holiday variety pack. So the 9/11 truth crowd hasn’t come together because of something we are. Rather, we came to the same place through something that happened inside our psyches and spirits. That’s why I see this more as a 9/11 truth awakening. Beyond the basic questions of who really did it, and all the hows and whys that go with it, diving into 9/11 truth for many becomes a personal and even spiritual process. It stirs us to ask deep and profound questions: Who am I and what do I really believe? How do I know what I know? How would it change my life if I admit that “Dad” or any authority figure is really capable of the unthinkable? What does it mean to wake up and tell the truth every day -- to myself, first, and then to those around me who may ridicule me for what I say?
Dan Hind: Wide-ranging conspiracies do take place
Monday, 21 July 2008 2:53 A GMT-05
What happened on 9/11 is, in the end, a matter of fact – whatever our worldview might incline us to consider plausible or possible. The true authorship of the attacks is as difficult to establish as anything else about the world of international terrorism and espionage. For myself, I have no idea what happened, because I have no more idea of how the business-intelligence-political nexus works than I have about what chess grandmasters are up to when they are staring at the board, looking all thoughtful.

"WAAS (Wide Area Augmentation System) is an extremely accurate navigation system developed for civil aviation. Before WAAS, the U.S. National Airspace System (NAS) did not have the potential to provide horizontal and vertical navigation for approach operations for all users at all locations.

WTC 7 Emergency Head Was Building Collapse Specialist
Friday, 11 July 2008 11:31 A GMT-05
The former New York City chief emergency manager Jerome Hauer, whose office was on the 23d floor of WTC 7, was also a building collapse specialist, according to a recently uncovered New York Times article. Hauer has attracted suspicion from the 9/11 truth movement because of his zeal to push the official story in the hours after the attack when details were still sketchy. Hauer was also Managing Director of Kroll Associates - the company that provided security for the WTC complex on 9/11 - and he also betrayed advance knowledge of the anthrax attacks a week before they happened.
NYC 9/11 Ballot Initiative 20,000 & Gravel Press Release Thursday, July 10th, 2008 --- 12 noon
Thursday, 10 July 2008 10:26 A GMT-05
On Thursday, July 10th at 12 noon, at Foley Square in New York City, former Senator Mike Gravel, speaking on behalf of the New York City 9/11 Ballot Initiative Campaign, will call for a new and far reaching investigation of the crimes of 9/11. Advocating for the creation of an independent 9/11 Commission, Gravel states, “We’re trying to change the paradigm of human democracy, of human governance, and that's what this [NYC 9/11 Ballot Initiative] is all about, changing the paradigm of human governance right here in New York City by asserting that you saw something wrong that took place, and you want to address it through using the tool of the Initiative, the legislative power of citizenry to go after that fundamental change.” Accompanying Sen. Gravel will be 9/11 family member Bob McIlvaine who lost his son in the south tower, Tony-award winning actress Christine Ebersole, and former NSA analyst turned investigative reporter Wayne Madsen. Mr. Madsen, has recently voiced his support, stating many current and retired intelligence professionals as well as members of foreign intelligence agencies would testify what they know about 9/11 in the venue provided by this new investigation. This campaign comes in the wake of several developments which underscore the need for a truly independent, thorough, fact-driven investigation into the events of 9/11. Consider the recent book by NY Times veteran reporter Philip Shenon titled “The Commission: The Uncensored History of the 9/11 Investigation”, the book by Tom Kean and Lee Hamilton titled “Unprecedented”, and Articles of Impeachment nos. 33-35 by Dennis Kucinich which list hard evidence showing dereliction of duty, obstruction of justice, and malfeasance by the Bush administration. Consider the revelation of the destruction in 2004 of CIA tape recordings of suspects in Guantanamo Bay which were requested by the 9/11 Commission. The list goes on and on…

It wasn’t the flashiest Truth action ever, nor did it make the evening news, but 20 or more dedicated Boston911Truth activists hit the pavement at Boston’s 4th of July Pops concert and fireworks display and accomplished something just short of miraculous, for us anyway. Armed with only a smile, new Patriots Question 911 postcards and WeAreChange informational flyers, our hearty “Info Warriors” were able to distribute 7,000 pieces of literature at a rate of 1,000 per hour for seven hours among the crowds lining the Charles River waiting for the festivities to begin.

The Top Ten Connections Between NIST and Nano-Thermites by Kevin Ryan
Saturday, 5 July 2008 5:11 P GMT-05
These inexplicable fires are a reminder that the WTC buildings were not simply demolished, but were demolished in a deceptive way. That is, the buildings were brought down so as to make it look like the impact of the planes and the resulting fires might have caused their unprecedented, symmetrical destruction. Therefore, shaped charges and other typical explosive configurations were likely used, but there was more to it than that. Those committing the crimes needed to create fire where it would not have existed otherwise, and draw attention toward the part of the buildings where the planes impacted (or in the case of WTC 7, away from the building altogether). This was most probably accomplished through the use of nano-thermites, which are high-tech energetic materials made by mixing ultra fine grain (UFG) aluminum and UFG metal oxides; usually iron oxide, molybdenum oxide or copper oxide, although other compounds can be used (Prakash 2005, Rai 2005). The mixing is accomplished by adding these reactants to a liquid solution where they form what are called “sols”, and then adding a gelling agent that captures these tiny reactive combinations in their intimately mixed state (LLNL 2000). The resulting “sol-gel” is then dried to form a porous reactive material that can be ignited in a number of ways.

Hungry For Truth - Day 13
Sunday, 8 June 2008 3:05 P GMT-05
Today is Day 13 of Blair's fast. It was 101 degrees in Phoenix today, and I can assure everyone that it was hot!! Blair is doing very well. He has lost 17 pounds total but still insists he's fine. As he says, he's not running any races, but he's still walking and conversing with all who come to see him. We had a lively discussion on theology for about an hour while I was there. Blair is as sharp as a tack and eager to debate! Today a couple who live in San Diego drove to Phoenix on their way to the Grand Canyon and stopped to say hi to Blair. We all thought that was pretty nice of them. Members of the local 9/11 Truth group came and went all day long.
It's gratifying to see all the support that Blair is getting. The media continues to follow Blair. A TV station came by this morning and filmed for about 15 minutes. He has radio interviews scheduled for Monday morning and evening. Also, yesterday a plane flew overhead with a banner reading "Google Hunger strike for truth. Check for that on Hungry4Truth.com
Please continue to keep Blair in your thoghts. He is very appreciative of everyone and expresses his thanks for all of your supportive email messages and good wishes.
Jon Gold Interviewed At The NE 9/11 Truth Symposium - 5/17/2008

This is an interview of me taken by Jonathan Elinoff on 5/17/2008 at the Keene New Hampshire 9/11 Truth Symposium. Jonathan is attempting to make a documentary specifically about the 9/11 Truth Movement, and also a few unanswered questions. At the conference, he interviewed Michele Little, Bob McIlvaine, Daniel Hopsicker, Barrie Zwicker, Michael Springmann, Luke Rudkowski, and several other people. I don't know when it is going to be released, or any other information about it. It has the potential to be an interesting film. Look for it in the future.
9/11 Victims' Families Send Letter Decrying Politicization Of Guantanamo Military Commissions
Saturday, 7 June 2008 4:03 P GMT-05
Family members of 9/11 victims have sent a letter today to Susan Crawford, Convening Authority of the Guantánamo military commissions, sharply criticizing the politicization of the system. According to news reports, a Pentagon representative secretly invited an outspoken supporter of the military commissions to Guantánamo Bay for Thursday’s arraignment of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other detainees on terrorism-related charges, but did not make this option available to family members who have expressed criticism of the commissions. This type of politicization is symptomatic of the unconstitutional and biased tribunal system, according to the American Civil Liberties Union. The letter echoes the widespread call for a system to try the Guantánamo detainees that adheres to the Constitution, stating, “As people who lost loved ones in the terrorist attacks of 9/11, we want nothing more than to see that justice is served in the prosecution of suspects. However, we know that no justice will come out of a system that has been compromised by politics and stripped of the rule of law.”

Press Release: PETITION FOR CANADIAN 9/11 INVESTIGATION TO BE READ INTO PARLIAMENT TUESDAY JUNE 10th, 2008
Saturday, 7 June 2008 3:19 P GMT-05
The 9/11 attacks not only killed 24 Canadians, but it is also our sole reason for participating in – and now enduring – the War on Terror. Upon the outset of the War in Afghanistan, former US Secretary of State Colin Powell (who will be in Vancouver June 12th) promised Canada a whitepaper linking the September 11th attacks with Osama bin Laden in exchange for our premature participation in the conflict in Afghanistan. This whitepaper never came, yet our troops are still fighting abroad. To date, the United States of America has yet to convict a single person in a court of law for the crimes of September 11th. Both official US reports, The 9/11 Commission Report and the NIST Federal Building and Fire Safety Investigation of the World Trade Center Disaster created more questions than answers, and cannot be credited as final accounts. Thus, in absence of our whitepaper or any other credible report, Canada must now take it upon itself to investigate the crimes of September 11th, not only for the sake of those in Canada who lost their loved ones, but also to justify our war efforts in Afghanistan, or to bring a cause for an immediate withdrawal. Ms. Davies, who is the deputy leader of the Federal NDP, has served as an MP in East Vancouver since 1997, easily winning in 4 consecutive elections. We would like to call on all Canadians to please send her an email thanking her for doing what she can to bring the topic of 9/11 into the Canadian Parliament: Davies.L@parl.gc.ca. Although this petition has already been submitted, we still wish to collect as many signatures as we can to show our true numbers. These yet to be collected signatures will then be added to our current tally, and a total will be read outside of Parliament on September 11th 2008 in support of bringing our demands to fruition. This rally on Parliament Hill, will succeed a March on Ottawa, that will start in Montreal QC, 5 day’s earlier This March on Ottawa will be the first nationally organized 9/11 Truth event here in Canada and we are anticipating on having thousands of marchers and participants rally with us in Ottawa: www.marchonottawa2008.org If you have yet to sign this petition, please do, and mail a copy in to our mailing address: March on Ottawa Organizing Committee 32-2902 Main St. Vancouver BC V5T 3G3.
Hungry For Truth - Day 12
Saturday, 7 June 2008 2:45 P GMT-05
Members of the Arizona truth movement meet for 45 minutes with John McCain's Arizona state director, Paul Hickman. Blair was asked to brief Mr. Hickman on what his Hunger Strike is all about. Blair clearly communicated that John McCain has endorsed and written the foreward to a Book called “Debunking 9/11 Myths”. Blair explained that it is his belief that John McCain either knows that 9/11 was an inside job, or that he has been lied to about the evidence supporting the 9/11 Commission Report. Blair stated that he wanted a 2 hour meeting commitment some time in the future to meet with John McCain to present our side’s questions to the issue of 9/11 Truth. Richard Gage has agreed to meet with Senator McCain on a moments notice. As we sat in his office we invited Mr. Hickman to view the collapse of WTC 7 on his computer and he cordially allowed us to pull-up the videos, he then viewed 3 different angled views of Building 7's collapse. He stated that he had never seen this footage, and when asked later what his thoughts and reaction to seeing the footage of the building collapse, he then stated “it is interesting”. He also asked us directly – “What was in building 7?” We of course answered the SEC, FBI, Secret Service, Gulliani’s Protective Bunker etc. Mr. Hickman assured us that he would brief John McCain on our Hunger Strike, on the information that we had provided him including the WTC7 videos of the buildings collapse. We followed up by saying that time is of the essence, that our friend Blair was weakening and that a response today, tomorrow or Sunday would be preferable. We do not want Blair to tax his system any further. Mr. Hickman nodded in agreement that he understood.
Please keep Blair in your constant thoughts and prayers. He was visibly weakened as we left the office. This is Day 12 of Blair not eating. While we await a response from Paul Hickman and Senator John McCain we decide to have another rally for 911 Truth. Hungry? Check out the video below.
The Three Amigos on 9/11
Friday, 6 June 2008 3:45 A GMT-05
Taken singly, any one of these stories would be startling and perhaps inexplicable if one believes the official story that America was attacked by an outside force on 9/11. Taken together, however, it quickly becomes apparent that the understanding of that day portrayed in the controlled corporate media is vastly distorted. By collecting this data into an easily digestible YouTube documentary format, these three videos make excellent tools for activists seeking to alert others to some of the many troubling unanswered questions about the defining political event of our age.

The good news is just that, NEWS Coverage! Seeing a hard copy of the paper this morning gave Blair a big boost of energy. KTVK Channel 3 sent out a camera man this morning and interviewed Blair. Shortly after noon two McCain Staff Members came out to the curb and offered to sit down with Blair, Gage and Jones and allow them to present our side of the story to McCain's staff, Blair stood his ground and once again stated that he must have a two hour sit down with McCain and allow media to be present.
Lawmaker asks McCain to talk with 9/11 theorists
Wednesday, 4 June 2008 10:37 A GMT-05
An Arizona state senator is petitioning presumptive GOP presidential nominee John McCain to meet with 9/11 conspiracy theorists, including an adjunct professor from Scottsdale who has been fasting outside McCain's Phoenix office for more than a week. State Sen. Karen Johnson, a Mesa Republican, delivered a letter to McCain's Senate office Tuesday asking that he sit down with Scottsdale activist Blair Gadsby and a pair of leading members of the 9/11 Truth Movement to consider alternative explanations for the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks and the collapse of the World Trade Center towers. Gadsby's fast outside McCain's Senate office entered its 10th day today. "There are so many questions left unanswered," said Johnson, who called for a new, independent investigation into the attacks.
Hungry For Truth - Day 9
Wednesday, 4 June 2008 10:31 A GMT-05
Day 9 of Blair Gadsby's Hunger Strike for 9/11 Truth brought two radio interviews and a phone interview from The Arizona Republic. Blair responded to Senator McCain's letter and Senator Karen Johnson issued her own written request to Sen. McCain urging him to meet with Blair, and both Blair and Senator Johnson were interviewed by Jack Blood on GCN radio network. It seems as though Blair has cracked the veil of silence from the MSM as his 9/11 concerns will be stated in a Arizona Republic newspaper article. Your constant calls, email and faxes to the MSM are working. Now is not the time to slow down or scale back our efforts. Your actions are empowering Blair and he feels it's because of your efforts that this hunger strike is receiving so much attention. It's time to push back. Could the summer of truth bring a crashing blow to the biggest cover-up of our time?
Hungry For Truth - Day 8
Tuesday, 3 June 2008 11:53 P GMT-05
Day 8 of Blair Gadsby's hunger strike for 9/11 Truth was met with opposition and a written response from the office of U.S. Senator John McCain. Blair was approached by the property manager at McCain's office and a Phoenix police officer and was told to remove his signs, stating that he was on private property. Numerous signs and banners have been surrounding Blair during his hunger strike to add to the visual affect. Wanting to comply with the law we had no choice but to remove the signs and now he has only what he can physically hold. Later in the day Blair made yet another visit inside the office to hand deliver a request to meet with Senator McCain. At this moment Blair was handed a written response to his request that stated the Senator's schedule would not permit him to meet with you at this time. If you notice the date on the letter, May 30th!! They let Blair sit outside, in 100 plus degree weather, on a hunger strike while that letter sat on someone's desk inside the office all weekend.
Blair is preparing a response to deliver back to the office of John McCain.
Hungry For Truth - Day 6
Sunday, 1 June 2008 3:21 P GMT-05
We are approached by walkers routinely, most of whom take time to read our materials and ask us a few questions. We pass out “Hungry for Truth” fliers, AE911Truth evidence cards, numerous DVD's, and even gave away a few ‘hungry’ t-shirts to high school kids. We can also report that we noticed our first official surveillance vehicle that seemingly tried to be covert, but was easy for us to spot simply because we are now quite familiar with our surroundings. We eventually approached the unmarked car and were met by a uniformed officer, badge ID – Montoya. He moved his ‘unmarked’ vehicle around to several different parking lots, but eventually disappeared.
"It Would Be the End of His Business ... He Would Be Denounced as an Anti-American and Demonized as a Terrorist Sympathizer"
Sunday, 1 June 2008 3:13 P GMT-05
Well, initially, there aren't that many people who have come out and publicly supported the official story. In fact, most scientists, engineers and architects have not made any public statement about 9/11 one way or the other. Moreover, virtually all of those who have supported the official explanation are - directly or indirectly - receiving funding from the government. See this and this. They get grants, accolades and appointments for parroting the official story. Additionally, there are many scientisits, engineers and architects who are convinced that the towers were brought down by controlled demolition, but are afraid of publicly speaking out for fear of losing their jobs, or being labelled unpatriotic or even a terrorist (and see this).

Troy From West Virginia Harasses 9/11 Family Member Bob McIlvaine

I heard about this on the way up to New Hampshire. Apparently Troy even asked Bob to put a bullet in his head (notice how Troy conveniently left that out). Mrs. McIlvaine was very shaken up by this, and understandably so. Troy has a history of harassing members of this movement by crank calling them on the phone (and he recently harassed 9/11 First Responder John Feal by calling him at least 30x according to John), but this is the first time his efforts focused on a 9/11 family member.

Um . . . haven't you guys ever cracked a history book? Don't you know that virtually every war is preceded by either a false flag attack or fake intelligence, so as to trump up an imminent threat from the folks that are to be on the receiving end of the bayonets and bombs?
If Cheney & Co. Had Really Plotted the 9/11 Attacks ...
Wednesday, 21 May 2008 4:16 A GMT-05
The 9/11 Truth movement is really distinguished by a kind of defiant unfamiliarity with the actual character of America's ruling class. In 9/11 lore the people who staff the White House, the security agencies, the Pentagon and groups like PNAC and the Council of Foreign Relations are imagined to be a monolithic, united class of dastardly, swashbuckling risk-takers with permanent hard-ons for Bourne Supremacy-style "false flag" and "black bag" operations, instead of the mundanely greedy, risk-averse, backstabbing, lawn-tending, half-clever suburban golfers they are in real life. It completely misunderstands the nature of American government -- fails to see that the old maxim about "the business of America is business" is absolutely true, that the federal government in this country is really just a lo-rent time-share property seasonally occupied by this or that clan of financial interests, each of which takes its 4-year turn at the helm tinkering with the tax laws and regulatory code and the rates at the Fed in the way it thinks will best keep the money train rolling.
Free At Last - Army Intelligence Analyst Buswell, 'The 9/11 NCO,' Speaks Out
Tuesday, 20 May 2008 1:01 A GMT-05
On Aug. 2, 2006, Sergeant First Class Donald Buswell had his life forever changed by an e-mail. During his 21 years in the Army, SFC Buswell served in both Iraq conflicts, Bosnia, Rwanda, and Korea. In 2004, Buswell sustained numerous shrapnel injuries from a rocket attack, after attempting to save two Iraqis who were left burning from explosions on a dirt road adjacent Saddam’s palace. SFC Buswell, a decorated soldier, is by numerous measures a patriot who willingly and regularly risked his life in service to the United States. Unfortunately, the United States Army did not see it that way. On that August day in 2006, Buswell received an e-mail which claimed to refute the "liberal" idea that a jet aircraft cannot vaporize. The e-mail’s author intended to support the 9/11 Commission’s claim that the plane which hit the Pentagon on 9/11/2001 literally atomized. It was sent to 34 people in the compartmentalized information facility at Ft. Sam Houston. Its allegation was not one Buswell could let pass unanswered. His response, found in The Iconoclast’s first story about SFC Buswell – published Aug. 21, 2006 – refuted the allegation that airplanes can vaporize, and urged his fellow soldiers to support a new investigation into the attacks; to question the official story and "demand answers." The next day, he was denied entry into his place of work. Soon thereafter, the Army informed him that he was under investigation. In the following days, he was fired from his job, demoted, ordered to undergo a mental health examination, and accused by Col. Luke S. Green, chief of staff at US Army North (Fifth Army), of "making statements disloyal to the United States." Though under direct orders to avoid speaking to the media, Buswell’s story got out via his friends, family, and associates. The Iconoclast has since published three installations of his tale, and this reporter was contracted to retell the tale for Fort Worth Weekly, an alternative paper in North Texas, in May 2007. None of these articles quoted Buswell, as he was still in the military and still under orders of silence. In April 2008, SFC Buswell became a civilian. It is now his intent, he said during a lengthy interview, to become an advocate for the 9/11 Truth Movement. That discussion follows.

New England 9/11 Symposium Final Update/Press Release
Thursday, 15 May 2008 11:34 P GMT-05
With the symposium only a few days away, we are working very hard for a large turnout and press coverage. I implore all of you to please participate in the week of truth and call C-SPAN to ask for media coverage of this event. Also, there have been two changes to the line up. Unfortunately, Daniel Sunjata will no longer be hosting the event due to conflicts with his schedule. The event will now be hosted by myself and Michael Jackman. Jason Bermas, because he has been working very hard on his new film, will not be able to join us. Instead, Korey Rowe will appear in his place to screen 15 minutes from their upcoming release, "Fabled Enemies." We're looking forward to seeing you all at the event! With that said, here is the latest press release...

Backing my claims about 9/11 questions
Wednesday, 14 May 2008 2:17 A GMT-05
The mainstream media parrot the less-than-credible conclusions of the 9/11 Commission without giving any thought to the many omissions and inconsistencies. In a truly free country, the press would ask hard questions and do real investigating, but this is not happening. Only the alternative media, such as Internet news sites, have done any solid investigating. The events of 9/11 led immediately to the creation of the Department of Homeland Security and passage of the Patriot Act (what double-speak), both of which deprive us of Constitutional rights and have brought us to the brink of becoming a police state. Homeland Security is currently trying to force a national ID card down our throats, although some governors have politely (or not so politely) told Secretary Michael Chertoff where he can go. If we’re going to sacrifice our freedom, there ought to be a very good reason, and we have a right to know what that is. It isn’t enough for government to say, “Trust me.” It’s way past time for Congress to authorize an independent investigation of 9/11 that will consider the mass of new evidence that has been gathered in the past seven years. The longer they stall, the more suspicions grow.
State Says Hundreds Of 9/11 Rescue Workers Now Dead, Admits Undercount
Saturday, 10 May 2008 2:51 P GMT-05
New York State health officials have released statistics indicating that 360 9/11 rescue workers have since died, but have also admitted that there is an overall undercount. The New York Daily News reports that of those deaths 154 have been explained and 80 have died of various forms of cancer, mostly impacting the lungs and digestive system while others were related to blood cancers and heart and circulatory diseases. "It's the tip of the iceberg," said David Worby, who is representing 10,000 workers - 600 with cancer - who say they got sick after working on rescue and recovery efforts. "These statistics bear out how toxic that site was," Worby said.
9/11 theorist not curtailing his research
Sunday, 4 May 2008 3:08 P GMT-05
Jones wants NIST to look at new evidence he found in Ground Zero dust samples since leaving BYU. The dust is full of iron-rich spheres and red-gray chips with the chemical signatures of high-tech cutter-charge explosives that he said could explain the collapsed towers. The spheres come from molten metal that Jones said could be caused by cutter charges. "It's like when you spray water into the air, you get droplets," Jones said. "These spheres are evidence of extremely high temperatures beyond what the fires could have reached." He's offered samples to NIST and invited NIST to visit one of his group's labs. A NIST spokesman has said that would be a waste of taxpayer dollars, though Jones said the cost would be less than $5,000.
This Week in 9/11 Truth
Saturday, 3 May 2008 9:26 P GMT-05
Indeed, the truth is coming out so quickly that the neocons are starting to panic. For example, the disinfo boys trotted out a ridiculous psyops wherein Al-Qaida's No. 2 supposedly says that theories questioning the official version of 9/11 are propagated by Iran. And White House speech writer and arch neocon David Frum violently assaulted a 9/11 truth activist for simply asking him some questions. Is the tide starting to turn?

Was 10:45 a.m. the Originally Planned Demolition Time of WTC 7?
Friday, 2 May 2008 11:14 A GMT-05
At 11:07 a.m. in the morning of September 11, 2001, a CNN correspondent in New York reported that a third tower had possibly collapsed. While this report was incorrect, it is interesting to note that the reporter's description could have applied to World Trade Center Building 7. This huge skyscraper was indeed the third tower to collapse on 9/11. However it did not come down until late in the afternoon, more than six hours after this report. CNN correspondent Allan Dodds Frank reported by phone from Lower Manhattan. He described: "[J]ust two or three minutes ago there was yet another collapse or explosion. I'm now out of sight, a Good Samaritan has taken me in on Duane Street. But at a quarter to 11, there was another collapse or explosion following the 10:30 collapse of the second tower. And a firefighter who rushed by us estimated that 50 stories went down. The street filled with smoke. It was like a forest fire roaring down a canyon." [1] WTC 7 was a 47-story tower, so would have fitted the description of the estimated "50 stories" described by Frank. And it did indeed collapse completely. One could in fact accurately describe its demise with Frank's words: "The street filled with smoke. It was like a forest fire roaring down a canyon." However, this collapse did not happen until 5:20 that afternoon. What could have led Frank to make his incorrect report? Surely, even in the chaos of that morning, it would have been quite difficult for a mistaken report of another massive skyscraper coming down to have emerged out of nothing. Could the reason be that WTC 7 had originally been scheduled to be brought down (with explosives) at 10:45 a.m.? The incorrect information Frank reported had therefore been put out, by persons unknown, on the assumption that this would be the case. However, something--as yet unknown to us--happened that meant the demolition had to be delayed, and so Building 7 was not ready to be brought down until late that afternoon.

Arizona Senator: I Want To Find Out The Truth About 9/11
Wednesday, 30 April 2008 11:31 A GMT-05
"There are so many unanswered questions regarding 9/11 and there never ever would have even been a Commission called for by Mr Bush and the Federal Government if it hadn't have been for the Jersey Girls." Johnson said, referring to the activist group of widowed mothers and wives from New Jersey and New York who have continued to question the events of 9/11.

Tips from a Marketing, Advertising, and PR Professional for 9/11 Truth Activists
Saturday, 26 April 2008 5:10 P GMT-05
Generally, it's best and prudent to ignore the major News and Talk media, or at least don't rely on them or expect that they will do the right thing. "Be the media" has been our mantra and our most effective tool, and there is no reason to change course. We can however, be savvier about PR and marketing. We have to realize that we, as individuals, are the sales department. As well, accept that bad press IS worse than no press. We don't have a PR department to fix public relations failures, nor time and energy to waste looking back. So it is incumbent upon each of us to think things through before acting, and realize that what each of us does, will reflect on the movement as a whole. There are so many ways to get out and inform people civilly and positively and they cannot defend against that, short of declaring martial law, which will blow their cover and expose the agenda.

I know that some of the 9/11 "debunkers" are decent people honestly believing the official narrative of 9/11, but I do have to say that many are simply fascistic sycophants and make little effort to hide that. This post - especially the comments section - is, in my opinion, a very strong illustration to that effect. -BE
Court Again Clears EPA in 9/11 Toxic Dust Ruling
Tuesday, 22 April 2008 11:04 P GMT-05
An EPA whistleblower, Dr. Cate Jenkins then wrote a letter to Senator Hillary Clinton (D-NY) and other members of the New York congressional delegation blasting the EPA for hiding dangerous toxins from Ground Zero workers in the aftermath of 9/11. The Letter claimed that EPA-funded research on the toxicity of breathable alkaline dust at the site “falsified pH results” to make the substance appear benign, when it was, in reality, corrosive enough to cause first responders and other workers in lower Manhattan to later lose pulmonary functions and, in some cases, to die. In an even more shocking development it was revealed that Whitman apparently had financial interests in reassuring the public that all was well and that lower Manhattan could safely be reoccupied.

Christie Todd Whitman Not Liable For Telling Residents That World Trade Center Air Was Safe To Breathe, Judge Rules
Tuesday, 22 April 2008 10:57 P GMT-05
Former EPA chief Christine Todd Whitman cannot be held liable for telling residents near the World Trade Center site that the air was safe to breathe after the 2001 terrorist attacks, a federal appeals court said Tuesday. The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said Whitman apparently made comments reassuring people about the safety around the site based on conflicting information and reassurances by the White House. The appeals court said legal remedies are not always available for every instance of arguably deficient governmental performance.

A Chat with Boris Epstein

Now this is a first - a nuisance political phone call. Now I must say that the idiot was dimwitted enough to use his home phone number and I know both that number as well as his address. I was not told that the conversation would be recorded; the number that he diealed was a private phone number; he also called me again late at night, about an hour after being told not to call again - which constitutes clear phone harassment. The recording is slightly redacted by Troy; reception was spotty hence some things clearly audible on his end I couldn't even make out well on mine, and some things I said are not very audible. - BE
Bombs in the Pentagon on 9/11? Witness Accounts Raise Questions
Saturday, 12 April 2008 5:50 P GMT-05
Several accounts reveal that some witnesses who were at the Pentagon when it was attacked on 9/11, and located close to where the building was struck, initially were quite sure a bomb--or bombs--had gone off. These accounts are particularly notable since these individuals were members of the armed forces, and therefore familiar with what explosives sounded and felt like. While they may not tell us anything conclusive, these reports raise questions about what actually happened at the Pentagon that morning:

Ludicrous Hit Piece Attacks Ventura On WTC Collapse Comments

An almost unbelievably absurd and weak hit piece against Jesse Ventura's contention that WTC 7 was deliberately imploded on 9/11 compares a 4-story church that was a stone's throw away from the twin towers with a 47-story skyscraper that was nearly 400 feet away.
James Moore, co-author of "Bush's Brain" and "The Architect," has no doubt "that Karl [Rove] was running the 9-11 Commission"
Saturday, 5 April 2008 4:44 P GMT-05
Me: "...I think that this is a very crucial sort-of connection for Karl Rove, because that Commission was highly manipulated and, if it was manipulated and it was a cover-up, then, under Article III Section 3 of the Constitution, I think we can consider it a treasonous cover-up." James Moore: "I don't have any doubt that Karl was running the 9-11 Commission. And, obviously, the people who were the key people on that, Jeremy, were appointed by the Bush administration, were beholden to the Bush administration, obviously there were some Democrats on there. But the people in charge, the people who were issuing and writing the reports and saying "let's look at this evidence and let's not look at this evidence," were people who reported to Karl."

Ted Olson's Report of Phone Calls from Barbara Olson on 9/11: Three Official Denials
Thursday, 3 April 2008 11:13 A GMT-05
This rejection of Ted Olson’s story by American Airlines, the Pentagon, and especially the FBI is a development of utmost importance. Without the alleged calls from Barbara Olson, there is no evidence that Flight 77 returned to Washington. Also, if Ted Olson’s claim was false, then there are only two possibilities: Either he lied or he was duped by someone using voice-morphing technology to pretend to be his wife.17 In either case, the official story about the calls from Barbara Olson was based on deception. And if that part of the official account of 9/11 was based on deception, should we not suspect that other parts were as well? The fact that Ted Olson’s report has been contradicted by other defenders of the official story about 9/11 provides grounds for demanding a new investigation of 9/11. This internal contradiction is, moreover, only one of 25 such contradictions discussed in my most recent book, 9/11 Contradictions: An Open Letter to Congress and the Press.

Ohio C.H.A.N.G.E. and Cincinnati 9/11 Truth Demonstrate at President Bush Speech
Tuesday, 1 April 2008 11:47 P GMT-05
Members of C.H.A.N.G.E. Ohio joined forces with Cincinnati 9/11 Truth to spread the message of government-sponsored terror to the people of Dayton outside of a speech by President Bush. The President was speaking at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base about the "Global War on Terror," before a large audience at the base's museum. The activists unfurled a massive banner reading "9/11 Was and Inside Job/ Cincinnati 9/11 Truth" at a major intersection near the base. Hundreds of motorists viewed the colorfully-painted banner, and reacted in a variety of ways. Some were surprised by the message, while others were enraged. Many gave joyous gestures as they drove by, expressing their thankfulness that people had hit the streets with the message of truth.
Engineer Accused of Coverups On 9/11 And Katrina Wants An Investigation -- Of Those Making The Accusations
Sunday, 30 March 2008 5:03 P GMT-05
The Associated Press reports that the American Society of Civil Engineers is being accused of serious corruption, and that the "expert" who led investigations into 9/11, Hurricane Katrina, and the Oklahoma City Bombing is calling for investigations -- into the people accusing him! I am not making this up. Gene Corley [photo], the "forensic expert" most implicated by these very serious charges, is quoted by the AP's Cain Burdeau as saying: "I hope someone looks into the people making the accusations" Most honest people would like to see investigations of the accusations first. Then -- if and only if the accusations appear to be specious -- an investigation into the people who made them would be in order.

Appearing on the nationally syndicated Alex Jones Show, Cho said her doubts about 9/11 were sparked by President Bush's non-reaction to the unfolding crisis. "I got concerned right after 9/11 where the plane had hit the World Trade Center and he was in that classroom with all those children and they told him what was going on and he did nothing," said Cho. "We were attacked for the first time on American soil and he did nothing - that's when I realized there was something very very wrong," she added.

Report Of WTC Collapse Cover-Up Justifies Call For New Inquiry
Thursday, 27 March 2008 8:16 A GMT-05
Richard Gage AIA, the founder of Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth, and hundreds of other industry experts' call for a new investigation into the collapse of the WTC twin towers and Building 7 is gaining strength following revelations of falsification and cover-up in relation to the FEMA-funded inquiry into the destruction of the buildings on 9/11. As we reported earlier, the American Society of Civil Engineers - an organization that was funded by FEMA to investigate the collapse of the twin towers on 9/11 - has been accused of engaging in a cover-up to protect the government, with critics charging the organization falsified conclusions that skyscrapers could not withstand getting hit by airplanes.
Court Clears Way for 9/11 Illness Lawsuit
Thursday, 27 March 2008 1:21 A GMT-05
Citing the unprecedented nature of the disaster, New York City and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, both defendants in the suits, have argued that they are entitled to immunity from the claims. The defendants say they cannot be required to pay out to the workers what could amount to billions of dollars in damages. The first significant ruling in the case came in 2006, when a federal district judge in Manhattan, Alvin Hellerstein, found that the city was only entitled to immunity for its conduct in the days immediately after the terrorist attacks. The lawsuits could go forward against the city's wishes, Judge Hellerstein ruled, to give workers the chance to prove their claims that ground zero remained an unsafe work environment even weeks and months after September 11, 2001.

Behind Closed Doors; Reasons Given For Bush & Cheney Not Testifying Under Oath
Monday, 24 March 2008 10:29 A GMT-05
REPORTER: Could you tell us what you think of the value of appearing together and how you would answer those critics? PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH: Yeah, first of all, look, I mean, if we had something to hide, we wouldn't have met with them in the first place. I came away good about the session, because I wanted them to know, you know, how I set strategy, how we run the White House, how we deal with threats. The vice president answered a lot of their questions, answered all their questions. And I think it was important for them to see our body language as well, how we work together.
F.B.I. Elaborates On Reportedly Absent 9/11 Aircraft Wreckage Recovery And Identification Records
Thursday, 20 March 2008 9:52 A GMT-05
After this extensive research, RIDS has been unable to locate any FBI records responsive to your request. RIDS' search efforts included verification by the responsible FBIHQ operational division that because the identity of the three hijacked aircraft has never been in question by the FBI, NTSB or FAA (since other evidence collected after 9/11 has all corroborated the fact that American Airlines Flight 11, United Airlines Flight 175, American Airlines Flight 77 and United Airlines Flight 93 were the aircraft that were hijacked), no records would have been generated responsive to your request for documents "revealing the process by which wreckage recovered by defendant, from the aircraft used during the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, was positively identified by defendant (with the aid of the National Transportation Safety Board), as belonging to the said aircraft, presumably though the use of unique serial number identifying information contained by the said aircraft wreckage."
25 Intolerable Contradictions: The Final Undoing of the Official 9/11 Story
Wednesday, 19 March 2008 4:07 A GMT-05
It is interesting to note that Dr. Griffin has become a virtual one-man clearinghouse for the vast accumulation of research that has been done on this world-changing event. It now appears highly likely that his neutral approach to this impressive body of evidence will be the axe that finally splits the issue open. Each one of the 25 carefully researched contradictions represents a crumbling brick in the official facade that shields the world from the unknown underlying truth.
What Caused the Fiery Ground-Level Explosions Right Before the Collapse of Each Tower?
Saturday, 15 March 2008 5:05 P GMT-05
On 9/11, there were multiple reports by credible witnesses of ground-level fiery explosions right before the collapse of the Twin Towers:
Is the CIA’s “Mighty Wurlitzer” Playing Geraldo Rivera?
Saturday, 15 March 2008 4:14 P GMT-05
On Fox and Friends, Geraldo declared Times Square is a “magnet for these crazy people, for anarchists… that’s what I think this is, this bomber isn’t al-Qaeda, isn’t anything like that, he is more like — it’s a man — he’s more like those 9/11 was an inside job kind of guys, they… they protest things in a violent way, but in a violent way almost like the eco-terrorist where they don’t intend the inflict casualties.” Geraldo has absolutely no evidence the event in question was connected to anybody associated with the 9/11 truth movement and his characterization of the movement and its members as violent, at first glance, is so at odds with the facts as to be ludicrous. No doubt Geraldo, possessing at least a modicum of intelligence — as blithering idiots do not generally become corporate media personalities — understands well the disingenuous nature of his comments. In short, he is reading from a script and that script was prepared well in advance of the event in Times Square.
Arlington Topography, Obstacles Make American 77 Final Leg Impossible
Saturday, 15 March 2008 2:56 P GMT-05
"Beware The Ides Of March" could not be a more appropriate introduction to this article as it appears the government story regarding the events at the pentagon is officially dead. Thanks to the hard work done by Citizen Investigation Team, they alerted us to review figures regarding topography and obstacles along the flight path of American 77 according to the government story. Physically and aerodynamically, Arlington's unique topography and obstacles along American 77 "final leg" to the pentagon make this approach completely impossible as we will demonstrate.
Geraldo Rivera conflates 9/11 skeptics with Terrorists - March 7, 2008

FOX News says "We Love to Hear From Our Viewers!" Let's take them up on the offer. After all, you're a viewer now... My suggestion is that we all ask for a retraction or apology for this outrageous comment, and Geraldo should have on the air David Ray Griffin to talk about his great new book, 9/11 Contradictions. 1-888-369-4762 ext.4 to leave a comment.

Peeling The Onion Again: Eliot Spitzer And Countless Layers Of Hypocrisy
Thursday, 13 March 2008 3:02 A GMT-05
The Megaphone has now learned that as attorney general, Spitzer [photo] got involved behind the scenes, and in the courts, filing a amicus curiae (“friend of the court”) brief on Silverstein’s behalf on Jan. 15, 2003. For years, this brief languished in the files of the public records room on the 17th floor of the Second Circuit Court in Manhattan, until it was discovered and brought to The New York Megaphone by NYC attorney and author Carl Person. The court ended up agreeing with Spitzer and Silverstein, over-turning the decision of a lower court. Spitzer helped midwife a fat compromise and an eventual $4.5 billion payout for Silverstein. The Megaphone’s multiple requests for comment from Governor Spitzer were ignored. Attorney Carl Person told The Megaphone, “I was surprised to see that Spitzer had used his position as attorney general to support one private litigant over another. Normally, this is not done…Silverstein could well have been someone who destroyed evidence concerning the 9/11 events by apparently ordering or consenting to the tearing (pulling) down of 7 WTC and the removal of the debris from his multiple ground leased premises thereafter.”
Mr. Yukihisa Fujita MP to attend the Sydney Truth Now Conference!
Tuesday, 11 March 2008 6:08 P GMT-05
It is with great pleasure that we can announce that Mr. Yukihisa Fujita, a Member of the Japanese Parliament representing the Democratic Party, is to attend the Sydney Truth Now Conference. He is, in the organizing committee’s opinion, the single most important person to step forward to ask the hard questions about 9/11 and the “War on Terror” this year. We hope that his attendance may encourage Australian Parliamentarians to examine the provably false official 9/11 conspiracy theory! He will be in attendance on the 15th (Sat) and 16th (Sun) only and will make a short address on both days.
How Should 9/11 Truth Activists Respond to Smear Campaign? SUE!
Tuesday, 11 March 2008 3:21 P GMT-05
The Simon Weisenthal Center accused credible 9/11 truth organizations of being terrorists, or at least helping to radicalize people into becoming terrorists. Fox News Commentator Geraldo Rivera reportedly stated that the New York Times Square bombing was carried out by 9/11 truthers. How should 9/11 truth activists respond to these smear campaigns? SUE! It is illegal to make false claims about people. It is called "defamation" ("slander" if it is a spoken lie; "libel" if it is a written lie). There are very clear defamation laws in the United States.
Secret Prisons Are Too Good For Them
Wednesday, 5 March 2008 7:11 A GMT-05
A commenter on Joe Scarborough suggests putting 9-11 Truthers in secret prisons in Eastern Europe. Too expensive and inefficient; I suggest that the Secret Service bring Chinese-made guillotines to every Clinton event. We'd see an end to all this nonsense in about ten seconds.
Fascist Morning Joe: Tase, Take 9/11 Truthers to Concentration Camps
Wednesday, 5 March 2008 7:00 A GMT-05
In other words, the corporate behemoth MSNBC believes people who disagree with the government not only do not deserve First Amendment rights and protection, but also believe demonstrators should be kidnapped by the CIA and taken to a “special prison” to be tortured and ultimately killed, as this is the fate many who disappear suffer. Is it possible the United States is about to become like Pinochet’s Chile? In 1973, thanks to the CIA and U.S. corporations, Chile became a brutal police state. Chileans were subjected to systematic and massive violations of their most basic human rights. Official figures indicate that nearly 3,000 people were executed, disappeared or lost their lives as a result of torture and political violence. It would seem “Morning Joe” would enthusiastically welcome the installation of a fascist state where those he disagrees with are disappeared, tortured, and murdered.
Redacted FBI Timeline Contradicts Official 9/11 Fiction
Saturday, 1 March 2008 5:21 P GMT-05
It’s interesting to compare the results of the 9/11 Commission with the 9/11 Congressional Inquiry that proceeded it. For instance, while the 9/11 Commission downplayed any possible ties between the hijackers and the Saudi government, the 9/11 Congressional Inquiry wrote an entire chapter on the topic. Unfortunately, all 28 pages of that chapter were censored. But Sen. Bob Graham, co-chair of the inquiry, later claimed that evidence relating to the two hijackers who lived in San Diego “presented a compelling case that there was Saudi assistance” to the 9/11 plot. He alleged that Omar al-Bayoumi in fact was a Saudi intelligence agent. He also concluded that President Bush directed the FBI “to restrain and obfuscate” investigations into these ties.

BETRAYED AGAIN: How Bush betrays the 9/11 first responders once more.
Friday, 29 February 2008 3:45 A GMT-05
In the name of full disclosure, I am not writing this from some disinterested “good citizen” viewpoint. I have a young nephew, John McNamarra, a heroic fireman who worked as a first responder at that site and who later volunteered for rescue work after Katrina in New Orleans. For the past few years he has been suffering from various cancers resulting from that work for which he is currently under treatment at Sloan Kettering. Last weekend he called me to talk about the government’s new betrayal. As the father of a one year old son, Jack, John is fighting the battle of his life, and there is no godly reason why men such as John have to fight the government as well for proper medical care and compensation. One pill – yes one small pill that reduces the agonizing nausea of his chemotherapy costs as much as a thousand dollars. Okay, I can rail about the greedy drug companies and their obscene profits, but my first concern is our government’s ingratitude and cruelty, something which the congress must address and remedy to help all these men and women. As Representative Carolyn Maloney writes, “It’s shocking that the president would use his final budget to take an axe to 9/11 health care programs.” Ms. Maloney is a wonderful representative but her use of shocking seems naïve. Are you shocked? After Katrina? After Walter Reed? Not me. I recall that first lie told by the federal government about the risk at ground zero to workers, one that came through the Bush mouthpiece, Christie Todd Whitman, then head of the Environmental Protection Agency, now a lobbyist for nuclear power. This former New Jersey governor claimed that anyone in the area of ground zero, meaning not only the workers who worked in the rubble trying to rescue the buried and reclaim body parts, but the residents of the apartments in the area, were safe from the toxic fumes that filled the air for days, sometimes weeks. According to a later report of the New York City Department of Health “The collapse of the Twin Towers brought 200,000 tons of steel, 5,000 tons of asbestos, 12,000 miles of electric cables and 425,000 cubic yards of concrete crashing down into lower Manhattan… The combustion produced a toxic cauldron of concrete, dust, glass fibers, and cancer-causing asbestos, as well as particles of lead, chlorine…24 gallons of jet fuel, and burning plastics released carcinogens including dioxins etc.” As someone who lived more than eighty long city blocks north of ground zero I could smell the bitter, toxic air coming in through my bedroom window for days.
9/11 First Responders Rally In Washington D.C. - 2/26/2008

This just in from the courtroom
Friday, 29 February 2008 1:16 A GMT-05
What do we know beyond a reasonable doubt? I would say, not very much: we know that Moussaoui trained to be a suicide pilot and was a member of Al Qaeda, a terrorist group. That may not be much but that is surely enough to lock him up for a long time, possibly for life. But the government is definitely trying hard to execute him. I don't have much sympathy for him and despite my general opposition to the death penalty don't particularly care if he dies in an execution chamber. Except for one thing - this is somewhat akin to the way the case of Timothy McVeigh was handled. Up to his very execution the government seemed to be doing all it could and then some to see to it that McVeigh does not draw one more breath than absolutely necessary; and as we now know there may have been reasons for that other than the rightful indignation - namely, that those involved in the coverup of the Oklahoma City bombing could well have had significant interest in making sure that McVeigh is permanently silenced. Could something similar be at play here with Moussaoui?
Transcript For Lorie Van Auken's Speech - NYC Ballot Initiative - 11/24/2007
Wednesday, 27 February 2008 12:06 P GMT-05
Thanks, my name is Lorie Van Auken, and my husband, Kenneth Van Auken, was killed on September 11, 2001. On the morning of 9/11, Ken left me a message that said, “I love you. I’m in the World Trade Center. The building was hit by something. I don’t know if I am going to get out, but I love you very much. I hope I see you later, bye”. Ken didn’t get out, and I never saw him again. From his message, I knew that he had survived the plane’s impact into his office building, WTC Tower One.
Six years after the event, that’s about all I know. I don’t know how Ken died. Perhaps he died in the fire of smoke inhalation, or maybe he was killed when the building collapsed, I suppose that I will never know. Since we didn’t receive any of his remains, Ken never had a funeral. It turns out that almost everything about 9/11 was out of the ordinary, including the fact that it was never properly investigated.
9/11 Aircraft 'Black Box' Serial Numbers Mysteriously Absent
Wednesday, 27 February 2008 3:00 A GMT-05
Of all major U.S. airline crashes within the U.S. investigated and published by the National Transportation Safety Board during the past 20 years, the 9/11 'black boxes' are virtually the only ones without listed serial numbers. NTSB American Airlines flight 77 flight data recorder report, not noting a device serial number: http://www.911myths.com/AAL77_fdr.pdf NTSB United Airlines flight 93 flight data recorder report, not noting a device serial number: http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/NSAEBB/NSAEBB196/doc04.pdf The United States government alleges that 4 registered Boeing commercial passenger aircraft were used in the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, yet has failed to produce any physical evidence collected from the 3 9/11 crash scenes positively tied to these federally registered United and American airlines aircraft. Despite the release of abundant information regarding the 9/11 flights and the aircraft reportedly used, specific information that would confirm official allegations regarding the identity of these aircraft has been mysteriously withheld or denied upon request.
Visibility 9-11 Welcomes Bill Douglas

In an interview recorded on January 17th, 2008, this episode of Visibility 9-11 welcomes 9-11 activist Bill Douglas. Bill is one of the founders of the original 9-11 Visibility Project out of Kansas City and has written and lectured extensively about the 9-11 Cover-Up.
Engineer Sees Evidence of Extreme Temperatures in WTC Steel
Tuesday, 26 February 2008 5:05 A GMT-05
A structural engineer who was a member of the team assembled by the American Society of Civil Engineers to investigate the World Trade Center site after 9/11 has described numerous phenomena indicating extremely high temperatures suffered by the WTC structural steel. This appears to be further evidence that high-temperature explosives, such as thermate, were used to bring down the towers. Dr. Abolhassan Astaneh-Asl is a professor of civil and environmental engineering at the University of California at Berkeley, who specializes in studying structural damage done by earthquakes and terrorist bombings. He flew to New York on September 19, 2001 to conduct a two-week reconnaissance of the collapsed towers, hoping to gain an understanding of how they'd come down. He was able to examine numerous pieces of steel taken from Ground Zero.

This sit down presentation was incredibly effective. The Monadnock 9/11 Truth Alliance and Student Scholars for 9/11 Truth encourage all 9/11 Truth activists to try and set up similar meetings with local press. One of the main things that needs to happen is the media black out needs to end. Local media is a great place to start.
How the 9/11 Commission Got it Wrong - an Introduction to 9/11 Skepticism on YouTube
Sunday, 24 February 2008 11:03 P GMT-05
So, if you are new to 9/11 Truth, or 9/11 skepticism, or you just have some questions, this is a great start. This briefing does not present much speculation or theory, but does break down the Commission on its bureaucratic failings, and lists a host of anomalies that will send you researching for days if this is all new to you. (This briefing does not discuss controlled demolition theories at all, it wasn't until physicist Steven Jones came on the scene in 2006 that CD "exploded" into the massive topic for 9/11 skeptics that is currently is. There was a lot of research already published online, and some in books, but it took a PhD to kick it over the top.) The YouTube series is in 25 parts, and begins with McKinney's opening statement.
Former Congressman Hamburg Joins 9/11 Commissioners, Military Leaders and other Highly-Credible People Who Question 9/11

Ex-Congressman: U.S. Government Created Al-Qaeda, Involved In 9/11
Saturday, 23 February 2008 3:00 A GMT-05
A former Congressman says that the U.S. government created Al-Qaeda and was involved in bombing its own citizens on 9/11, telling a national radio show that elements of the Bush administration assisted the attacks on the WTC and the Pentagon. Daniel Hamburg is a former Democratic Congressman who was elected to the 1st Congressional District of California in 1992 and also subsequently ran for Governor of California, finishing in 3rd place. Hamburg co-wrote a well-received recent article carried by the San Francisco Chronicle in which he outlined the program to incarcerate American citizens in internment camps, which have already been publicly built, during a time of declared national emergency.
Bill Doyle, Father of 9/11 Victim, Speaks Out On Alex Jones Show
Thursday, 21 February 2008 12:44 A GMT-05
The representative of the largest group of 9/11 families says that the official version of events is a fallacy and that the NORAD stand down and evidence of incendiary devices used to bring down the towers amount to government complicity in the attacks - a conclusion shared by half of the 9/11 families he represents. Bill Doyle heads the Coalition of 9/11 Families and lost his own son Joey in the collapse of the twin towers. “If you want to believe what they want to snow you under on like the 9/11 Commission - that’s a total fallacy,” said Doyle. “The continuing cover-up is beyond belief,” Doyle told GCN radio host Alex Jones.

9/11 Truth Debate at European Parliament, February 26
Sunday, 17 February 2008 1:46 A GMT-05
A few weeks after the Japanese parliament it is now Europe’s turn to open the debate on what really happened on 9/11. While journalists and politicians still support the official version of the events, defended by the Bush administration – in which the blame is laid on Muslims – the Europarliamentarian from Italy, Giulietto Chiesa, organizes an historical evening in the European Parliament in Brussels on Tuesday 26th February. He will present his film ZERO – 9/11: Europe for an Independent Commission of Inquiry. This documentary is the result of 8 months of intensive research and interviews in Europe and the United States. It emphasizes the inconsistencies, manipulations, lies and omissions of the official inquiry. The film will be followed by a debate with Giulietto Chiesa himself (journalist and politician in Italy, member of the European Commission of Inquiry on the illegal prisons in Europe), Andreas von Bulow (Former Minister from Germany and specialist of the secret services), Prof. David Ray Griffin (Author of several 9/11 books) and Yukihisa Fujita (Japanese parliamentarian).
No One Can Convince Me...
Sunday, 17 February 2008 12:57 A GMT-05
That those many family members that lost their loved ones that day don't deserve to know how and why they were murdered. That sending 9/11 First Responders knowingly to their possible deaths is an acceptable decision that no one should be held accountable for. That the 9/11 First Responders don't deserve every possible benefit to help them in their time of need. That blatantly covering up different aspects of the 9/11 attacks is in this country, and the world's best interest.
British Judges Slam Police & Prosecutors for Lying & Framing Algerian as "Lead Instructor" for 9/11 Hijackers
Saturday, 16 February 2008 11:48 P GMT-05
Six years of fighting for justice left Lotfi Raissi an emotional and physical wreck and his marriage close to ruin. But yesterday, the Algerian pilot falsely accused of training the September 11 terrorists heard, finally, that he was “completely exonerated” of any part in the attacks on the twin towers... Three of Britain’s most senior judges condemned the Metropolitan Police and the Crown Prosecution Service for abusing the court process, presenting false allegations and not disclosing evidence...
50,000 First Responders Need Donations, Dignity and True Respect
Saturday, 16 February 2008 11:08 P GMT-05
An estimated 50,000 fire fighters, police, EMTs, national guard, military and other volunteers are suffering from exposure to ground zero-- and stand to be forgotten by the country they aided in the wake of the 9/11 attacks. Lung problems, leukemia & other cancers, including asbestosis have caused too many of our heroes to become deathly ill. On top of that, many 9/11 heroes have been too sick to work and have received NO benefits or other help from either local or national government efforts. The FealGoodFoundation.com donated about $100,000 to first responders last year, but it needs even more money this year. WeAreChange.org raised more than $14,000 for responders last year and has spent a lot of time spreading the word about their needs. Police and Fire Fighters, how can your brothers be allowed to slip through the cracks? Americans, how can the heroes who heeded the call on the day of 9/11 be now allowed to be forgotten and forsaken? People of the world, nearly 3,000 unfortunate people perished in the collapse of the Twin Towers, but now 50,000 will die from the fallout and continued aftermath of 9/11-- can we really stand be while so many die from neglect and abandon? Create change... because real change starts with you. Raise awareness, help pay medical bills and save our heroes' lives. Please donate at www.1stResponders1st.com on February 16th. Then spread the word to everyone you know, because surely, their struggle has only begun.
Barrie Zwicker on TVO - February 13th, 2008

The "agenda" seems to have been to have Zwicker on the show, showcase him as a paranoid "Conspiracy Theorist" and then have a panel follow up and explain why he was a paranoiac. However, Zwicker was so damn good in the opening segment with Paikin, that the episode was re-named, "Barrie Zwicker - Conspiracy Anyone?", and split into two distinct segments, the first with Zwicker, called "The Interview - Fact or fiction?

WeAreChange First Responders Money Bomb - Feb. 16, 2008
Saturday, 16 February 2008 7:50 A GMT-05
Message from John Feal: 9/11 and it's aftermath has left such a horrible catastrophic trail of human turmoil on yesterday's heroes, one can not comprehend how anyone can afford to survive with mounting medical,prescription,and doctor bills. Let alone the cost of living, utility, rent, mortgage, food, etc..............these brave souls can not even afford gas to go to their doctor appointments. It is our responsibility as Americans to help and assist these heroes at any cost while our federal government sits idle and turns it back on these heroic men and woman.For example just today a 9/11 responder dying of leukemia was told his prescription is $28,000 for just 2 weeks of pills. This is simply amazing, because frankly that is more them most working people make in a single year. With the health care system broken with creed and corruption, it is that much harder for 9/11 responders, those that worked on the pile,around the pile and civilians of Manhattan to get proper medical treatment and benefits they deserved and earned. If we leave behind conflict, and travel towards solutions then so many of these wonderful people would be helped. So many presidential candidates talk about change, well my fellow Americans I am sick to my stomach hearing about their change, because real change comes from the hard working, everyday American like all of you, who make change everyday. So you see change starts at the bottom and works it way up to these full of political rhetoric, hot air clowns who say they stand for change. Lets show Washington together that it us, and has been us for the last 6.5 years that are helping and caring about 9/11 responders. As a team we can help assist in paying some medical bills,some prescription bills,and lets give these heroes so pride and dignity that was taken from them when their government let them down on every level.

Harassed At Border For 9/11 Truth Flyer
Thursday, 14 February 2008 9:18 A GMT-05
JC911Truth founder, director and organizer, Glenn Zarmanov was recently harassed on the American-Canadian border for his possession of fliers that prompt the reader to demand a new investigation and DVDs with similar content. While traveling on a visit to Montreal, Quebec, Zarmanov encountered hostility when a border-patrol agent remarked that the fliers and discs could be considered "objectionable material" and might be confiscated. Zarmanov was allowed into the country with his property, but was warned not to bring such material on subsequent visits. Zarmanov was questioned rigorously on his intentions for smuggling paper and plastic into Canada. As if a thorough search of the vehicle in which the activist was traveling were not enough, the border-guard in question added insult to injury by stating: "That sh*t [9/11 Truth] don't fly in Canada" and "You are not welcome here. Americans are second-rate travelers."
Noam Chomsky joins 9/11 "Jersey" widows in calling for release of 9/11 documents
Thursday, 14 February 2008 8:46 A GMT-05
Noam Chomsky has signed a petition written by the 9/11 “Jersey” widows calling for the release of classified documents relating to the 9/11 attacks. The Muckraker Report has contacted him by e-mail and verified that the individual listed on the petition is indeed Noam Chomsky. Chomsky’s name is #6432: That said, now that Chomsky has agreed to sign the widows’ petition, the Muckraker Report would like to see the following people sign too: Alexander Cockburn and crew at Counterpunch, the editorial staff at the Nation, Michael Moore, Barbara Ehrenreich, Amy Goodman, Maureen Dowd, Frank Rich, Seymour Hersh, Nicholas Leman at the New Yorker, Christopher Hayes, anyone who writes for the Daily Kos, including Kos himself, and the absolutely divine Camille Paglia. Like I said in my article from a few days ago, 9/11 Widows Keep on Asking the Tough Questions, the Jersey widows say that once they have 15,000 signatures on their petition, they’re going to head back to Capitol Hill. Right now they have 6,600 signatures, 1023 of them in the last 60 hours. Please e-mail the link of the petition to all your friends. Ask them to sign and forward the petition to their e-mail contacts. The Jersey widows have to get 8,400 more signatures. They need your help. Come on - give them a hand!

Direct question provided for Senator Reid: "According to families of those who perished in the 9/11 attacks, a majority of the answers sought by them to questions regarding these attacks, were not provided by the "Final Report of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States" (2004). As the United States Senate majority party leader, do you support the idea of an official independent investigation that can provide answers to those questions that were not addressed by the "Final Report of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States"?"

...Al Qaeda, she's (Sibel's) been saying to congress, according to these interviews, is financed 95% by drug money - drug traffic to which the US government shows a blind eye, has been ignoring, because it very heavily involves allies and assets of ours - such as Turkey, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Pakistan, Afghanistan - all the 'Stans - in a drug traffic where the opium originates in Afghanistan, is processed in Turkey, and delivered to Europe where it furnishes 96% of Europe's heroin, by Albanians, either in Albania or Kosovo - Albanian Muslims in Kosovo - basically the KLA, the Kosovo Liberation Army which we backed heavily in that episode at the end of the century.
6 Guantanamo Detainees Are Said to Face Trial Over 9/11
Sunday, 10 February 2008 3:58 A GMT-05
Military prosecutors are in the final phases of preparing the first sweeping case against suspected conspirators in the plot that led to the deaths of nearly 3,000 Americans on Sept. 11, 2001, and drew the United States into war, people who have been briefed on the case said. The charges, to be filed in the military commission system at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, would involve as many as six detainees held at the detention camp, including Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, the former senior aide to Osama bin Laden, who has said he was the principal planner of the plot.

FOX-5 Reports 9/11/01: WTC-7 Collapsed Before Actual Event
Saturday, 9 February 2008 2:16 P GMT-05
Another clear cut case of the media on 9/11/01 being fed a cover story on WTC-7's collapse before the actual event. In this clip, the anchors for FOX-5 in Washington DC on 9/11/01 report that WTC-7 had already collapsed and then they watch WTC-7 collapse seconds in their own video footage just after they already reported that the collapse already happened. This is more evidence that WTC-7 was brought down in a controlled demolition. How could anyone know a building with light fire damage is too collapse at free fall speed, unless they know it is going to be brought down with explosives?
European Parliament Screening for Zero: An Investigation Into 9/11
Saturday, 9 February 2008 1:00 P GMT-05
Commenting for Mercury, Tim Sparke MD said: ‘Zero is arguably the most important film made this year. It proves conclusively that the official story of 9/11 is false and that whatever happened on that fateful day must be re-examined by an independent authority. It is our hope that the European Parliament will take up this challenge’. He added: ‘We are confident that Zero will be screened world-wide theatrically, it is a beautifully crafted film, of incredible significance. We urge buyers to come to the Berlin Screening on 13th February at Parliament to see why we make these claims’.

Open Letter To Former 9/11 Commissioners On New Book "The Commission"
Friday, 8 February 2008 4:32 A GMT-05
In the long run history will no doubt be harsh on your record but less so, or quite the reverse, if you come forward with candid admission of where you fell down and if you stand up now, or when the time comes, to support a new investigation. For God's sake, admit that Philip Zelikow for all his seeming intelligence, dedication and hard work had no business running the Commission, if not for appearance's sake alone. Many years after the Warren Commission issued its own final report, the Permanent Select Committee on Assassinations concluded there was a wider conspiracy behind the killing of JFK. Let's hope it we don't have to wait as long for a new investigation of 9/11 and let's hope we don't get yet another unsatisfactory and incomplete finding should one be convened. No doubt the families will not make the same mistake twice and this time insist on a formal role in an investigation. In case after case without the benefit of classified material or 'access', the 9/11 families put the government's own investigators to shame. With your honest help let's hope the future writes a different story; for the sake of all of us and our children. Please join the now millions of people around the world who have honestly and thoroughly examined the findings of fact and circumstances laid out in your Report and found them deceptive, or incomplete, and call for a new investigation that reveals the truth, that follows all the evidence trails, wherever they might lead.
Dam Breaks, ABC News Covers Willie Nelson 9/11 Story
Friday, 8 February 2008 4:22 A GMT-05
The dam has broken on mainstream media coverage of Willie Nelson's comments yesterday about the implosion of the WTC twin towers with ABC News picking up the story on their front page this afternoon.
Fox News covers Willie Nelson Story
Friday, 8 February 2008 4:21 A GMT-05
Texas icon Willie Nelson said on a nationally syndicated radio show this week that he questions the official story of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks in New York City. "I certainly do," Nelson said Monday when asked by talk show host Alex Jones if he questions the official story. "I saw those towers fall and I've seen an implosion in Las Vegas, there's too much similarities between the two. And I saw the building fall that didn't get hit by nothing," the singer-songwriter said. "So, how naive are we, you know, what do they think we'll go for?"
An Open Letter to Amy Goodman
Friday, 8 February 2008 3:38 A GMT-05
For rhetorical purposes only, let's say that "Al Qaeda" performed as specified by the 9/11 Commission, (even though, as early as October, 2001, serious analysts of military theory, like Stan Goff, were saying that, "The So-Called Evidence Is a Farce"). If that's so, why are there so many blatant connections between western intelligence and "Al Qaeda"? Connections like Ali Mohamed, for instance, or the Clinton administration's support of the KLA througout the 1990's, or the continued alleged links between CIA and Abu Sayyaf? It seems based on the research of Michel Chossudovsky of Canada, and Nafeez Ahmed of Britain, that if indeed, "Al Qaeda" did pull off 9/11, it did it as a proxy force, or patsy force at best. Doesn't that tweak your conscience just slightly? If "Al Qaeda" is a patsy army, then over One Million dead Iraqi citizens have died for nothing, because the invasion of Iraq was never going to happen without a "Catastrophic Event", like 9/11, that the Neocons were pining for.
911 Questions at Congressman Markey Forum
Wednesday, 6 February 2008 2:03 A GMT-05
Congratulations to local 9/11 Boston activists on a great job at the Ed Markey forum yesterday in Framingham. We got into at least two newspapers in his district (linked below). Notice the slick response Markey gave regarding the question of controlled demolition: It's incontrovertibly true (that) the terrorist-piloted planes caused the attacks.
Seattle-Post Intelligencer Editors to Next Administration: "write a real, nonpartisan report on the [9/11] attacks"
Wednesday, 6 February 2008 1:40 A GMT-05
Zelikow had written a 2002 report for the administration, which seemed to provide justification for a pre-emptive war, and tried in 2004 to create a connection between Osama bin Laden and Iraq in the 9/11 Commission report. Despite saying he wouldn't do so, he also had several conversations with Rice and Karl Rove, which explains why he'd asked his assistant to stop keeping track of his calls to and from the White House.
A Tribute to Harry John Roland
Saturday, 2 February 2008 7:40 P GMT-05
His name is Harry John Roland and he has been coming out to Ground Zero for nearly everyday since the attacks of 9/11. Harry on 911 not only lost his job inside the South World Trade Center Tower but also his nephew who's body was not found until 2004. Being tragically affected by 9/11, Harry has been coming out to Ground Zero nearly everyday since the attacks to educate the people about the truth behind that day. We Are CHANGE pays tribute to the 1st person ever to make a stand for truth and who has been doing it everyday since the day of the tragic events of 911. We pay our respects and we hope you do too.
MSNBC: Key 9/11 Commission Report Testimony Based on Torture
Saturday, 2 February 2008 7:08 P GMT-05
The 9/11 Commission suspected that critical information it used in its landmark report was the product of harsh interrogations of al-Qaida operatives - interrogations that many critics have labeled torture. Yet, commission staffers never questioned the agency about the interrogation techniques and in fact ordered a second round of interrogations specifically to ask additional questions of the same operatives, NBC News has learned. Those conclusions are the result of an extensive NBC News analysis of the 9/11 Commission’s Final Report and interviews with Commission staffers and current and former U.S. intelligence officials.
The "Jersey Girls" Called For Philip Zelikow's Resignation
Saturday, 2 February 2008 6:50 P GMT-05
During the time of the 9/11 Commission, the "Jersey Girls" called for the resignation of Philip Zelikow. As you can see from this clip from 9/11: Press For Truth:
FBI Conceals Flight Data Recorder Info That Could Confirm Registry ID's Of 2 9/11 Planes
Wednesday, 30 January 2008 12:39 A GMT-05
The FBI has determined that the release of SSFDR data for AA 77 and UA 93 would not interfere with enforcement proceedings, yet the release of data for flights carried out by N644AA (AA 77) and N591UA (UA 93) that occurred prior to September 11, 2001, apparently contained by the same SSFDRs (that would presumably confirm flight history data provided by the BTS), is "expected to interfere with enforcement proceedings".
MAD ABOUT RUDY

Firefighter: Giuliani 'ran like a coward on 9/11'
Sunday, 27 January 2008 4:04 P GMT-05
Families of firefighters killed in the Sept. 11 terror attacks on the World Trade Center rallied in Orlando Tuesday in anticipation of the state's upcoming Republican primary. Unfortunately for Presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani, the firefighters are not in his corner. "We want America to know that [the Giuliani campaign] is lying to America and to the American pubic," said Jim Riches, a deputy chief in the New York Fire Department, "telling all of Florida that the New York City Fire Department backs him, when that's another lie."
STANDING UP for 911 TRUTH in the Classroom again
Sunday, 27 January 2008 3:39 P GMT-05
Today at college, I was in a packed classroom auditorium, shoulder-to-shoulder with about 60 other students. The Professor was going down the roll list asking people to introduce themselves and briefly tell a little about themselves. It finally came to be my turn. Despite some butterflies and a parched mouth, my statements came out comfortably bold and sure: "...I am an Environmental Science Major and I am also with the 9/11 Truth movement, because it has been PROVEN that explosives were used on 9/11." There were some giggles and suppressed laughter in the background, but I held my ground. The Instructor said: "Well, I may be skeptical about that." I responded, "That is great! I am glad that you are skeptical. I am also skeptical -- about the Official Story." And he trailed on with the fact that he is also somewhat skeptical about official versions, but that he would need to see evidence about the explosives on 9/11. I told him that I have the evidence right here and I will give it to him after class. (DVDs and flyers/info cards) Then the Professor continued with the rest of the class.
Mainstream Media Silent On 9/11 Coverup
Saturday, 26 January 2008 9:47 P GMT-05
According to a 2007 Zogby Poll, 51% of Americans want Congress to probe Bush/Cheney regarding the 9/11 attacks. Not one person has been held accountable, but the questions go beyond this. We are showing these movies for two reasons: 1. To raise the public awareness of the 9/11 story so future decisions can be based on the truth. And 2. To alert the public to the plight of the sick and dying 9/11 First Responders. All ticket proceeds are being donated to the FealGood Foundation, founded by John Feal, an injured NYC 9/11 First Responder to help the 70% of 9/11 First Responders who are sick or dying from the contaminated dust at the World Trade Center site. These heroes have been virtually ignored by our government.
Found in Translation
Wednesday, 23 January 2008 10:18 A GMT-05
Curiously, the states-secrets gag order binding Edmonds, while put in place by DOJ in 2002, was not requested by the FBI but by the State Department and Pentagon—which employed individuals she identified as being involved in criminal activities. If her allegations are frivolous, that order would scarcely seem necessary. It would have been much simpler for the government to marginalize her by demonstrating that she was poorly informed or speculating about matters outside her competency. Under the Bush administration, the security gag order has been invoked to cover up incompetence or illegality, not to protect national security. It has recently been used to conceal the illegal wiretaps of the warrantless surveillance program, the allegations of torture and the CIA’s rendition program, and to shield the telecom industry for its collaboration in illegal eavesdropping. Both Senators Grassley and Leahy, a Republican and a Democrat, who interviewed her at length in 2002, attest to Edmonds’s believability. The Department of Justice inspector general investigation into her claims about the translations unit and an internal FBI review confirmed most of her allegations. Former FBI senior counterintelligence officer John Cole has independently confirmed her report of the presence of Pakistani intelligence service penetrations within the FBI translators’ pool. Edmonds wasn’t angling to become a media darling. She would have preferred to testify under oath before a congressional committee that could offer legal protection and subpoena documents and witnesses to support her case. She claims that a number of FBI agents would be willing to testify, though she has not named them.
Constitution, Capitalism and Anarchism: Moving Beyond Corporatism in a post-post-9-11 United States of America
Monday, 21 January 2008 4:13 A GMT-05
I would say that the USA has a deep streak of some of the best in "anarchism," of the value and pre-eminence of the individual as the source of sovereign power that any level of state power might desire to draw upon, i.e. the consent of the governed. I don't think the more problematic tendencies that we face can be solved just by scaling back the size of government (yes in some cases), but by scaling up the power, rights and responsibilities of the individual(s). And that's what I believe 9-11 truth and justice might lead to if we are focused.

A Brief Summary Of Sibel Edmonds' Connection To 9/11

Recently, I have seen a lot of people asking about Sibel Edmonds' connection to 9/11. I sent an email to Luke Ryland, the individual that knows that most about Sibel, and asked him to please give me a brief summary of Sibel's relationship to 9/11. Here is what he wrote.
Why We'll Win
Saturday, 19 January 2008 4:58 P GMT-05
But with an understanding of false flag terror and faked intelligence, people can see that the elite have been playing an entirely different game: the blame-the-enemy-for-your-own-brutal acts-of-murder game. Once people understand that the powers-that-be in every country and every culture will wrap themselves in the nation's flag, dominant cultural expressions, and prevailing religion and then manipulate the population through the creation of boogeymen, something amazing will happen. People will rise up and demand new forms of government that cannot be distorted through false flags, cooked intelligence and rigged votes to serve the elite at the expense of the people. Tweaks on the old forms of government, brought about by constitutional Convention (or even new forms of government) will be implemented which will prevent the abuses of the last couple of thousands of years from recurring, and which will create true democratic republics which actually embody the vision of the Founding Fathers. Because America, for example, has become so corrupted, and because anti-freedom forces sought to sabotage the Constitution from the first, the new governments will be better than the world has ever seen before.
September 11th Advocates Statement In Support Of Sibel Edmonds
Saturday, 19 January 2008 3:51 P GMT-05
The claims that Sibel made were indeed shocking. She testified privately before the 9/11 Commission over the course of several hours. She supplied them with specific document information including names of expert witnesses who could corroborate her testimony. In addition, through relationships that Sibel had made with other current and former employees, she offered to the 9/11 Commission the contact information of additional potential whistle-blowers. However, none of the information that Sibel provided to the Commission ever made its way into the Commission’s final report. Nor do we know if the Commission ever called upon the additional whistle-blowers to supply their testimonies. The result of all Sibel’s whistle-blowing was that she was fired from the FBI and ultimately gagged when John Ashcroft, the former Attorney General, asserted an arcane law of “States Secret Privilege”. By this time, Sibel had taken her concerns and conveyed this information to her supervisors at the FBI, members of the Judiciary Committee, the FBI Inspector General and the 9/11 Commission, all of whom would have been able to corroborate her claims. In fact, the FBI Inspector General’s report publicly did. Much to our dismay, when Sibel appealed her case to the Supreme Court, she was denied attendance. The court’s decision was made without Sibel or her attorney being present – they were asked to leave the courtroom.
Transcript of Japanese Member of Parliament
Wednesday, 16 January 2008 11:40 A GMT-05
Prime Minister, you were Chief Cabinet Secretary at the time and as somebody has already noted, this was an incident of the sort that humanity had never previously experienced. Also, there appears to be a lot more information about this incident coming out now than came out in the months after the attacks. Now that we are an internet and visual society, this information is being made public so if we look at the situation now, the whole starting point for these two laws , the start of the war on terror itself, as you have seen from the information I have presented, has not been properly investigated or analyzed. So I do not believe the government has acted properly by investigating this incident or asking the U.S. government for an explanation. So far we have not started refueling U.S. ships yet so I think we need to go back to the beginning and not just simply and blindly trust the U.S. government explanation and indirect information provided by them. There were too many victims so I think we need to start again from the beginning. We need to ask who the real victims of this war on terrorism are. I think the citizens of the world are its victims. Here in Japan we have disappearing pensions and disappearing records about victims of Hepatitis C contaminated blood but everything I have presented on facts and confirmable evidence. Let us talk about the vanishing black boxes, vanishing airplanes and vanishing remains. Also lots of the remains of these buildings have disappeared. Even FEMA says that prevented it from carrying out a proper investigation. We need to look at this evidence and ask ourselves what the war on terrorism really is. I can see the ministers nodding in agreement but I would like to ask Prime Minister Fukuda. Please look at me. I have heard that when you were Chief Cabinet Minister at the time you felt many strange things about these attacks. Do you not think it was strange?
Making 9/11 Truth more Accessible via Comedy

Comment: 9/11 Commissioners Kean and Hamilton NYT January 2, 2008 Op-Ed Article: "Stonewalled by the C.I.A."
Tuesday, 15 January 2008 2:01 A GMT-05
Regarding interrogation methods, Kean and Hamilton wrote: "The commission did not have a mandate to investigate how detainees were treated; our role was to investigate the history and evolution of Al Qaeda and the 9/11 plot." As they rightfully point out, these are two entirely separate issues. The bottom line is that first the Commission was limited to investigating the above presupposition, and then it was denied access to the very sources that it had been charged to investigate. The whole inquiry now appears to have been a circular, self-defeating, window-dressing exercise.
We Are Change LA Talks to Jane Harman's Office about HR1955, Architects and Engineers for 9-11 Truth and False-flag Terrorism
Sunday, 13 January 2008 5:02 P GMT-05
The earlier part of our Eleventh Day of Action last month was spent demonstrating outside of Congresswoman Jane Harman's office in El Segundo, CA. We took the opportunity to go inside and speak with her aid about our concerns surrounding HR 1955, Mark Weitzman's powerpoint presentation identifying www.ae911truth.org as "Disinformation" and appealing to terrorists, and Congress's continuing silent complicity in the 9-11 cover-up. Her aid would not allow us to film the conversation so we attempted to describe the conversation as best we could. We left behind some information about 9-11, including an ae911truth.org card about the destruction of the Twin Towers and a DVD with "9-11 Mysteries" and Richard Gage AIA's "Blueprint for Destruction," among others. Here's the video:
9/11 Truth Street Action In Wayne, PA 1/12/2008
Sunday, 13 January 2008 4:51 P GMT-05
Today was a great day. I got to talk with a lot of people, as did Betsy. Betsy spoke to kids from the local military academy who were skeptical, and she gave them a copy of 9/11: Press For Truth. Betsy also talked to a police officer who made us take the signs down because of town ordinance. She gave him a copy of 9/11: Press For Truth, and some pamphlets. He told her she was being noble. Two different people gave us cash contributions today for the 9/11 First Responders. That was awesome. We got a lot of honks, and very few negative responses. There was this one kid who couldn't have been older than 10 ask if he could hold one of our signs. He told us that 9/11 had to do with going into Iraq. Smart kid. I look forward to seeing whoever can make it this upcoming Tuesday.
Barrett Protests UW Hiring Decision
Saturday, 12 January 2008 8:23 A GMT-05
Last year, despite being the ONLY qualified candidate, I was turned down for a tenure-track job at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater purely on the basis of my political beliefs. They chose to shut down their Arabic program rather than hire me! Howard Ross, who was then the Dean of Letters and Sciences, was involved in the (non-)hiring process, and will testify that I was turned down, and the classes I would have taught cancelled, because of my involvement in the 9/11 truth movement. Howard Ross will join me to discuss my case, and the sad state of academic freedom in America, on Truth Jihad Radio, Saturday, 1/19, 6-8 pm, http://www.republicbroadcasting.org Full radio schedule and guest list: http://www.mujca.com/airwaves.htm - Kevin Barrett
9/11 and the incompetence excuse: Could a bunch of sociopathic screw-ups really pull off the crime of the century?
Friday, 11 January 2008 12:34 P GMT-05
Many who deny government complicity in 9/11/01 maintain that some of the best evidence against official involvement in the crime of the century lies in the Bush administration's unbroken record of sheer incompetence, an argument bolstered by the perception that key members of the administration, notably The Commander Guy, spent that entire day running around like headless chickens. On the contrary, they did no such thing. Rather, the administration was highly competent and enormously successful that day -- they just had different criteria for success than would sane people. And they've been highly competent ever since. You just have to adjust your standards for evaluating success, then view the past six years through the PNAC/neocon lens. Let's review some of their primary accomplishments -- on 9/11 and in the six eternal years since:
What Do a Renowned 9/11 Physicist and a N.Y. Times Best Selling Novelist Have in Common? Harassment by Dis-Information?
Friday, 11 January 2008 12:07 P GMT-05
In the last 48 hours, N.Y. Times best selling novelist, Steve Alten, author of, "The Shell Game," was recently shocked and dumbfounded that he’d become the victim of harassment, when someone not only put a map of his home and his personal private phone number and home address up on the internet, . . . but also either remotely accessed or intercepted personal private email between he and his publicist . . . and all because of the impending release of his new novel, "The Shell Game." http://theshellgame.net/ (See 9/11 truth links in the “911 Links” section of his site, to learn why this impending block buster novel may be causing such actions).

In an interview with WeAreChangeLA.org, Richard Gage AIA, founder of Architects and Engineers for 911 Truth, responds powerfully to the insinuations and defamations put forth by Mark Weitzman of the Simon Wiesenthal Center during his powerpoint presentation in Jane Harman's congressional committee hearing last fall. Among making other powerful points, he calls for an apology, a retraction and a meeting with Mark Weitzman and/or representatives from the Simon Wiesenthal Center.
9/11 Contradictions: Bush in the Classroom
Wednesday, 9 January 2008 12:43 A GMT-05
The official story of 9/11 is riddled with internal contradictions. One of these contradictions involves the question of how long President Bush remained in classroom in Sarasota, Florida, on the morning of 9/11.
9-11 Cover-Up, Treason and The Bomb
Tuesday, 8 January 2008 3:22 A GMT-05
Edmonds claims, in the Times article, that following the 9-11 attacks, FBI investigators took a number of Turkish and Pakistani operatives into custody for questioning about foreknowledge of the attacks, but that a high-ranking US State Department official repeatedly acted to spirit them out of the country. Edmonds was fired from her FBI translating job in 2002 after she accused a colleague of having illicit contact with Turkish officials. She has claimed that she was fired for being outspoken, and in 2005 her position was reportedly vindicated by the Office of Inspector General of the FBI, which concluded that she had been sacked for making valid complaints. One of those whom Edmonds claims in the Times report was being investigated in connection with the nuclear information transfers was Pentagon analyst Lawrence Franklin. Franklin was convicted and jailed in 2006 for passing US defense information to American Israel Public Affairs Committee lobbyists and sharing classified information with an Israeli diplomat. Franklin, in 2001, was part of the Pentagon Office of Special Plans, a kind of shadow intelligence unit set up by the Bush administration inside the Pentagon whose job it was to gin up “evidence” to justify a war against Iraq. In that capacity, he (along with several other OSP members and arch neocon schemer Michael Ledeen) was also identified by Italian investigative journalists working for the newspaper La Republican, as having been at a crucial meeting in December 2001 in Rome with the Italian defense and intelligence service ministers. La Republicca reports that at that meeting a plan was hatched to fob off forged Niger embassy documents as evidence that Iraqi strongman Saddam Hussein was trying to buy uranium ore from Niger.
The NIST Report on the World Trade Center Collapse one year later:Still Dead On Arrival
Sunday, 6 January 2008 1:39 A GMT-05
The late Princeton astronomer Carl Sagan used to say that “extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof.” By this tough but reasonable standard, the official explanation about the collapse of the WTC on September 11, 2001 was without question an extraordinary claim, because there were no historical precedents. I will say it once again: No steel-frame skyscraper had ever collapsed due to fire-weakened columns. By this standard the official account required an extraordinary level of proof. Yet, as I have just shown, NIST failed to muster even a minimal evidentiary case. From the start, NIST’s investigation was biased, hence, unscientific. Indeed, its report is “a triumph” of circular reasoning. The report actually left me slightly agog, in a state of mild shock at the disparity between NIST’s research and its conclusions. NIST never overcame the lack of hard data about actual conditions at the WTC core, certainly not by resorting to computer models. Had its program been robust enough to properly characterize the far walls, investigators might have utilized the known exterior damage to those far walls to discriminate between the three alternatives and, thusly, to select the best choice, validating the model. Failing this, the NIST had no sound basis for rejecting the lesser and moderate alternatives. Both were at least as plausible as the extreme case. Why were they not given equal weight? The answer is obvious: That would have compelled NIST investigators to entertain the unthinkable, i.e., the possibility that some other causative agent was responsible for the WTC collapse.
AE911Truth: Activists Perform A NIST Street Action
Sunday, 6 January 2008 12:53 A GMT-05
Three 9/11 Truth and Justice activists, David Slesinger, of 911courage.org, Richard Ochs, of FreeFromTerror.net, and an unnamed videographer, stood outside the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) building on October 11, 2007 holding a sign encouraging NIST employees to look at the ae911truth.org website.
Open Letter to Official Theory Supporting Scientists
Sunday, 6 January 2008 12:31 A GMT-05
As I'm sure you'd agree, the real scientific method requires analysis first, followed by an inference (conclusion). This would seem to be the case with the WTC demolition hypothesis, as there are roughly a dozen or so characteristics of the collapses standard to controlled demolition (and WTC7 was a very "standard" demolition). See, Steven Jones, a Republican, believed the official story until 2005; he actually voted for Bush BOTH times. For those first four years he had blindly accepted the planes + fires scenario as the only possibility. Then he said, "Wait a second. There has never been a historical precedent for structural damage and fires causing this type of collapse, but these features are standard with controlled demolition." He painstakingly documents this in his paper. That's taking the available data and making an inference.

Saturday, 5 January 2008 4:15 A GMT-05
The star journalists of 2007 didn't work for The New York Times or The Washington Post or The Globe and Mail. They didn't work for 60 Minutes or "W-5" or "The Fifth Estate." The real star journalists of 2007 were the dogged, artless, perseverant investigators and writers, mostly amateur, who continued to pursue the story of what really happened on 9/11, because the above-named big guys and their kind continued to ignore it.
9/11 Truth in MSM - Denmark
Friday, 4 January 2008 5:49 A GMT-05
The largest tv station in denmark had a live broadcast on "Good Morning, Denmark" with Professor in chemistry, Niels Harrit
( www.911truth.dk/first/en/art_Harrit.htm ) and the creator of the largest 9/11 Forum in denmark, Jakob Hede Madsen. ( www.agenda911.dk ) The interview is with english subtitles.
Statement By 9/11 Family Member Donna Marsh O'Connor On The CIA Tapes
Friday, 4 January 2008 5:48 A GMT-05
My daughter, Vanessa Lang Langer was pregnant and pulled from the pile whole and intact on 9/24/2001. She was found ten feet from an alley. Five minutes after the first plane hit Tower I, she was on the phone to the uptown office of Regus Business International, telling a colleague that those in Tower II were told they were safe. That five minutes and the seventeen minutes between those planes (yes, I do believe there were planes) were two lifetimes in my own world. She must have been running for her life, fully conscious of how much she had to protect and how endangered she came to be. If you can’t hear the reasonable request of one family, one mother, you don’t care about family at all. You believe the beginning and end of your moral existence reaches only to what is easy for you to do. You don’t consider those acts necessary to good citizenship, those acts that you leave out, to have any significance. It is much easier to be a good person than it is to be a good people.
Why Would REAL 9/11 Truth Activists Advocate a Work of FICTION?
Tuesday, 1 January 2008 7:23 P GMT-05
Fiction offers the average American "a safer way" to approach these bone crushing realities that 9/11 truth seekers have woken up to, enabling a massive action fiction fan base to be exposed to truths too big for them to handle by picking up a leaflet or documentary. Yet, once the door of their mind is jimmied open with action fiction, then the light offered by such leaflets and documentaries will find space to enter. Throughout history fiction and cautionary tales have had profound impacts on people's thinking. Orwell's "1984" woke many of us up to the dangers of a totalitarian state. It helped many of us see through the lovely names the neo-cons gave to horrible programs. The film "V for Vendetta," has obviously affected many, as evidenced by 9/11 truth videos made using clips from that film, and also the Ron Paul campaign was given a gift of over $5 million in one day of fundraising on the "5th of November," the so-called "Guy Faulks Day," which was prominent in that film. So, we see that fiction can be powerful. The growing interest in expanding readership of "The Shell Game," indicates that this very well may be one of those important works of fiction.
A tale of three broadcasters
Sunday, 30 December 2007 10:40 P GMT-05
In this tale, written from an Australian perspective, I’ll review an incident that took place overseas several years ago - and the remarkable failure of Australia's premier public broadcaster to report the story. Then I’ll look at equivalent public broadcasters, in Britain and the USA, to examine their bizarre reportage of the same extraordinary event. Publicly-funded mass media can - and should - survive only if they enjoy widespread confidence. Why should the public fund media which lies about very important topics - matters of life and death? Read on - and judge for yourself whether the tangled web woven by these three mass media organizations is evidence of deliberate deception.
Each of our Individual Voices Is More Important Than We've Realized
Sunday, 30 December 2007 9:34 P GMT-05
Adding a single dissenter - just one other person who gives the correct answer, or even an incorrect answer that's different from the group's incorrect answer - reduces conformity very sharply, down to 5-10%.
Ground Level Fireballs Disprove Official WTC Collapse Theories
Sunday, 30 December 2007 8:39 P GMT-05
These accounts are important evidence, strongly refuting official explanations of why the World Trade Center fell. In its final report on the collapses of the Twin Towers, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) claimed the collapses "initiated at the fire and impact floors," and "progressed from the initiating floors downward." This would mean the collapse began, in the case of the South Tower, around the 78th to 84th floors, and for the North Tower, around the 93rd to 98th floors. Why would a collapse that started way up towards the top of each building coincide with, or be preceded by, a massive fireball erupting from the bottom? The official theory--that structural damage and fire caused the collapses--cannot explain this. Nor can it explain why, according to several witnesses, the ground started shaking just before the collapse of the South Tower, and again just before the collapse of the North Tower.
That Was One Considerate Unnamed FAA Employee!
Saturday, 29 December 2007 1:44 P GMT-05
On September 11, 2001 a group of FAA employees who were directly involved in handling the hijacked aircraft, or at the very least witnessed the actions of those directly involved with those aircraft, gathered to discuss what they had just been through. That meeting was recorded on an audiotape. One does not have to be a top-notch detective to realize that such a recording could easily be an invaluable piece of evidence in any subsequent investigation. And anyone whose IQ exceeds that of an absolute imbecile would likely realize that the murder of many hundreds of people would not go uninvestigated. Yet an FAA employee,- whose identity has to this day not been made public,- destroyed this tape,- allegedly, in a very meticulous and thorough manner, making absolutely sure it would never be heard.
The strange saga of the 9/11 planes
Saturday, 29 December 2007 1:41 P GMT-05
So, as they say, what's the bottom line. The bottom line is, we have practically no proof that the four passengers aircraft that, according to the official narrative, were involved in 9/11 were in fact the attack vehicles. And the proof, if they in fact had been, would have been neither secret, nor difficult to produce.
PRESS RELEASE - United 93 Data Provided By US Govt Does Not Support Observed Events
Saturday, 29 December 2007 1:34 P GMT-05
Pilots for 9/11 Truth, an international organization of pilots and aviation professionals, petitioned the National Transportation and Safety Board (NTSB) via the Freedom of Information Act to obtain United Flight 93 Flight Data Recorder information, consisting of a Comma Separated Value (CSV) file and Flight Path Animation, allegedly derived from Flight 93 Flight Data Recorder (FDR). The data provided by the NTSB contradict observed events in several significant ways:
FAA Withholds Pre-9/11 ID Confirming Aircraft Serial Number Data Of 9/11 Planes
Saturday, 29 December 2007 1:37 A GMT-05
Refusal to release this footnote data (that is crucial to confirming the U.S. government's positions regarding the federal registry identifications of the civil aircraft used during the 9/11 attacks) was not per any established FAA information request exemptions, normally cited by federal agencies that deny FOIA requests: http://www.faa.gov/foia/media/exemptions.pdf The FAA along with the FBI, have now declared that 9/11 aircraft component serial number data that would confirm the publically known opinions regarding the 9/11 planes, provided by the FAA, FBI and the National Transportation Safety Board, is exempt from public disclosure.
Van Auken/Kleinberg letter in N.Y. Times
Thursday, 27 December 2007 5:05 P GMT-05
You report that “the panel made repeated and detailed requests to the Central Intelligence Agency in 2003 and 2004 for documents and other information about the interrogation of operatives of Al Qaeda.” But while the panel did make “document requests” to the C.I.A., it did not subpoena the C.I.A. for the documents and tapes. A subpoena would have meant that the C.I.A. would have had to answer the commission as to whether the documents and tapes existed, and the agency would have had to explain its reasons for not turning these documents and tapes over to the panel. We would have had a paper trail about the evidence. You also report, “In interviews this week, the two chairmen of the commission, Lee H. Hamilton and Thomas H. Kean, said their reading of the report had convinced them that the agency had made a conscious decision to impede the Sept. 11 commission’s inquiry.” The question is: Are Americans satisfied with this?

9/11 Commission Report: Second Edition
Thursday, 27 December 2007 2:16 A GMT-05
Notes to the Second Edition: Because the government has refused to give the Commission access to any of real sources of unbiased information concerning the 9/11 attacks, obstructed our investigation, failed to fund the investigation in any meaningful fashion, and sabotaged our investigation from the first day, the weather for 9/11 is the only thing our Report can really discuss.

9/11 "Confession" Falls Apart
Thursday, 20 December 2007 1:28 A GMT-05
Bottom line: According to the FBI, the information which formed the basis for the 9/11 Commission Report was based on the ramblings of a literally crazy guy after he had been tortured for many, many weeks in a manner that was guaranteed to destroy his trust in his interrogators and which was contrary to effective interrogation techniques.
Government's Evasiveness about 9/11 is Proof of Guilt
Wednesday, 19 December 2007 12:35 A GMT-05
When a suspect who is confronted with a direct question repeatedly tries to change the subject and refuses to answer the question, that's evidence that he's guilty. For example, if a suspect is repeatedly asked "did you stab Mr. Roberts?", and he replies "I didn't take the money!" every time he is asked, that is strong incriminating evidence that he did in fact stab Mr. Roberts. That's especially true if no one asked him whether he took any money. NIST is doing the exact same thing in regards to the basic questions which 9/11 activists keep asking.
Connecting The 9/11 Dots: Dead Cutouts, Destroyed Tapes, And The Hidden Assumption That Poisons Everything
Friday, 14 December 2007 7:17 A GMT-05
The hidden assumption that poisons all mainstream (and much "alternative") analysis is the idea that the Bush administration and the CIA didn't want 9/11 to happen. If you just throw away the prism -- drop the hidden assumption and look at the dots on their own -- the picture gets a lot clearer.
Co-Chair of Congressional 9/11 Inquiry and Former Head of Senate Intelligence Committee Confirms White House Cover Up
Friday, 14 December 2007 6:31 A GMT-05
If the White House refused to allow an interview of a government informant who was landlord to two of the hijackers -- one of the most valuable leads it could possibly pursue -- what other investigations did it spike? And if the White House killed an investigation to, allegedly, protect its Saudi friends, how much more motivated would the White House have been to kill investigations into areas which implicated elements of the U.S. government itself?
Pelosi and Harman Aided and Abetted 9/11 Cover Up
Friday, 14 December 2007 6:24 A GMT-05
Pelosi and Harman played an instrumental role in the 9/11 cover up by keeping their knowledge about the interrogation videotapes secret from the 9/11 Commission and from the American people (they weren't the only ones who knew). This is made all the worse because Pelosi knew that intelligence "collected by torture" is worthless, and yet she never even hinted to the Commission or to anyone else that the CIA's version of events should be questioned. They could have stopped the whole farce cold -- but they chose to go along with it. These two congresswomen -- who are fighting against 9/11 truth -- previously aided and abetted the 9/11 cover up. Is that why they don't want the truth to come out?
Lawmaker Pushes For Those Killed From 9/11-Related Illnesses
Friday, 14 December 2007 6:20 A GMT-05
State Senator Eric Adams met with top city officials Wednesday afternoon to propose legislation that would require the medical examiner to list 9/11 as the cause of death on the death certificates of workers who died from illnesses developed after the attacks. "The most important message we want to send for the family members of 9/11 is that their loved ones were there for us when we needed them and we're going to be there for them," said Adams.

John Feal and the FealGood Foundation are mentioned in the news a lot. It seems a lot of New York papers go to John for comments regarding the problems of the responders. However, this last week has been an outstanding exception. I have seen SEVERAL mentions of the FealGood Foundation in SEVERAL different news articles.
Dan Rea's NightSide to provide 9-11 Truth a fair hearing
Friday, 14 December 2007 5:39 A GMT-05
In the tradition of his courageous journalism career, WBZ AM 1030's Dan Rea will be interviewing three prominent voices from the controversial 9-11 Truth movement. The interview will be broadcast live on the evening of Friday, December 14th, just hours before the following morning's scientific 9-11 symposium at Faneuil Hall, sponsored by Boston911Truth.org. Joining Dan Rea in studio will be the symposium's opening speaker, Richard Gage, AIA, founder of Architects & Engineers for 9-11 Truth (http://www.ae911thruth.org); Dr, Robert Bowman, former Director of Advanced Space Programs for the U.S. Air Force; and Donna Marsh O'Connor, mother of 9-11 victim Vanessa Lang Langer.
9/11 Victims' Lawyers Blast Ground Zero Toxic Air Lies In Court
Wednesday, 12 December 2007 7:04 A GMT-05
However, it must be remembered that Whitman and the EPA are accountable to the White House and act under the direct authority of the Bush Administration. It was the 2003 EPA Inspector General's investigation that revealed that it was the White House that had pressured EPA into changing its press releases to add more "reassuring" language. The further memos revealed that Whitman conspired with the White House to falsely reassure New Yorkers that the air was safe.
The 9/11 Commission Doesn't Believe It: Why Do You?
Wednesday, 12 December 2007 6:48 A GMT-05
And many other key players in generating the Report don't believe it: One of the primary architects of the 9/11 Commission Report, Ernest May, said in May 2005, "We never had full confidence in the interrogation reports as historical sources." And the high-level attorney who led the 9/11 staff's inquiry, said "I was shocked at how different the truth was from the way it was described .... The tapes told a radically different story from what had been told to us and the public for two years.... This is not spin. This is not true."
Are the Wheels Coming Off the Government's 9/11 Myth?
Wednesday, 12 December 2007 5:54 A GMT-05
While the mainstream media is studiously ignoring the deeper issues raised by the destruction of the tapes, there are signs that truth may be slowly rising to the surface after having been held underwater for a long time. For example, while ignoring the real players behind 9/11, even Huffington Post and Digg- which normally avoid any story questioning 9/11 -- have picked up on the possibility that the tapes were destroyed because they showed that people other than a guy on dialysis living in a cave and his 19 pals were behind the 9/11 attacks. Are the wheels are coming off the government's 9/11 myth?
DOJ: Don't Blame Whitman For 9/11 Speech
Tuesday, 11 December 2007 5:53 A GMT-05
Department of Justice attorney Alisa Klein said that holding Whitman liable will set a dangerous precedent in future disasters: "The consequence would be a default to silence. If you speak, you will be potentially held liable. Then the clear message for government officials is to say nothing." Residents, students and workers in lower Manhattan and Brooklyn filed the lawsuit, saying they were exposed to hazardous dust and debris from the fallen twin towers after Sept. 11. They say Whitman should be forced to pay damages to properly clean homes, schools and businesses and be forced to create a fund for medical monitoring of victims, some of whom claim they suffer from asthma, lung disease and other ailments.
Last year, U.S. District Judge Deborah A. Batts in Manhattan refused to dismiss Whitman as a defendant, calling the actions of the former New Jersey governor "conscience-shocking."

AE911Truth Response to Mark Weitzman of the Simon Wiesenthal Center
Tuesday, 11 December 2007 12:31 A GMT-05
Simon Wiesenthal was a paragon for seeking the truth, however hard and difficult it might be. The SWC should be honoring our right to publish technical information and encourage fact-based forensic inquiry into the three largest structural failures in U.S. history – not branding us inciters of terrorism. Tolerance arises from understanding, and understanding from direct experience. In this light we would like to meet with you and your board and staff to present to you the specific concerns documented on AE911Truth.org regarding the basic science of these "collapses". We would like to learn from you what you perceive as so threatening so as to deem it necessary to "warn" Congress about us. By understanding each other's concerns, we will strengthen our mutual resolve to work toward the creation of a more truthful and tolerant society.
Businessman Set To Walk Length Of Cape Cod For 9/11 Charity Fund | 911Blogger.com
Tuesday, 11 December 2007 12:28 A GMT-05
On Dec. 18 and 19, Jeffrey Liskov, 37, of Plymouth, a vice president at Fidelity Investments, will walk 100 miles, from Provincetown to Plymouth Rock, in hopes of raising at least $2,500 for the Feal Good Foundation - a nonprofit charity founded in 2005 to aid sick or injured 9/11 rescue workers. “I’m doing the charity walk to raise awareness of a situation that is happening to 9/11 first-responders,” Liskov said. The foundation “sends out checks to them to help put food on the table, to pay rent if need be, and pays medical bills,” he said.
This year the organization has made 91 donations to 9/11 rescuers. He may be joined by the Feal Good Foundation founder. John Feal, 41, of New York, was the supervisor of a demolition company when he responded to Ground Zero on Sept. 12, 2001. He was hospitalized for 11 weeks after a beam weighing several tons fell on his feet.
New York Times Bestselling Author Aims at 9/11 Coverup with Both Barrels Blazing
Sunday, 9 December 2007 11:58 P GMT-05
New York Times bestselling author Steve Alten is releasing a novel January 22nd which addresses the 9/11 stand down, the injection of false radar blips into air traffic controllers' screens, PNAC, the 9/11 Commission whitewash, the Anthrax attacks, and related issues. Written in the exciting, cloak-and-dagger style of Robert Ludlum, the novel -- The Shell Game -- has a shot at educating a large segment of the American public who would otherwise remain in the dark about some aspects of 9/11.
Which lie should we believe? CIA admits it destroyed evidence it said didn't exist.
Sunday, 9 December 2007 11:15 P GMT-05
We learned this week that CIA videotapes of at least some of these supposed interrogations -- the tapes which were previously said not to have existed -- are now said to have been destroyed in 2005. The CIA has copped to destroying the Abu Zubaydah tapes, but has yet to name the prisoner(s) in the other destroyed tapes. (That one of them was Mohamed is a good bet.) The CIA claims -- bizarrely -- that this was done to protect the identities of the interrogators (as though blurring them out would be beyond the agency's 19th-century video technology). The corporate media have promptly floated the idea that the motive was to cover up the use of torture, possibly waterboarding. But as the "evidence" from which the official 9/11 fable lives disappears further into a black box, naturally any breathing skeptic must wonder to what extent the tapes, or even the prisoners, existed in the first place. And if the tapes existed, was the motive behind their destruction to hide torture, or to hide evidence? Even a defender of the official story like former CIA agent Robert Baer knows this latest story only adds to the stink.
Architects, Engineers & Educators Speak Out! Conference to be held- Saturday December 15 at Faneuil Hall, Boston
Sunday, 9 December 2007 8:32 P GMT-05
This day-long conference on Saturday December 15 at Boston’s historic Faneuil Hall is entitled, “The Destruction of World Trade Center Towers 1, 2 and 7: A Case for Controlled Demolition.” In this scientific look at the collapses, a panel of four well-known and credentialed science and engineering professionals will present the case that the government’s theories could not possibly be true and that most of the evidence points to the one theory that’s been completely avoided by the government and the media – controlled demolition.
Lee Hamilton Says the CIA Obstructed the 9/11 Commission
Sunday, 9 December 2007 7:56 P GMT-05
"Did they obstruct our inquiry? The answer is clearly yes," says Lee Hamilton, who co-chaired the 9/11 Commission, in the wake of reports the CIA destroyed videotapes of interrogations of two al-Qaida suspects. "Whether that amounts to a crime, others will have to judge," adds Hamilton, a 1952 graduate of DePauw University, in today's Detroit Free Press.

9/11 Truth Activism In Wayne, PA - 12/8/2007
Sunday, 9 December 2007 6:32 P GMT-05
Today, Betsy M. and I went out again to Wayne, PA to promote 9/11 Truth. One thing I took notice of today is that the positive responses FAR outweighed the negative ones. Sure, there were two people that told me to "get a job", and I responded by saying, "I have one", and one person referred to me as "Osama", but the people that stopped to talk with us, the people that gave us a thumbs up as they drove by, the honkers, and so on... far outnumbered the blissfully ignorant. Keep in mind, I have a lot of tolerance for people that rely on the Bill O'Reilly's of the world for their information. I used to be one of them.
You Say 9/11 Was an Inside Job? There's Nothing I Can Do About It . . . or Is There?
Sunday, 9 December 2007 6:23 P GMT-05
Most people I talk to believe 9/11 was an inside job. I talk to everyone, cab drivers, limo drivers, phone solicitors, etc. etc. The overwhelming majority think 9/11 was an inside job perpetrated by our government. HOWEVER, almost as many shrug and give me comments along the lines of “it doesn’t matter what I do.” Let me tell you a story about what one person can do.
234th Anniversary of the Boston Tea Party: 9/11 Truth Comes to the 'Hub'
Sunday, 9 December 2007 6:07 P GMT-05
On December 15, 2007, Boston's historic Faneuil Hall will be the site of a day-long symposium entitled, "The Destruction of World Trade Center Towers 1,2 and 7: A Case for Controlled Demolition," followed by an evening program entitled, "911 Sent Them to War: Testimonies and Strategies on Ending the War and Restoring the Constitution." The events are part of a series of programs and activities being sponsored by regional and national organizers of the 911Truth Movement, symbolically coinciding with the 234th Anniversary of the Boston Tea Party. The weekend activities will conclude on Sunday, December 16 with a public rally and demonstration on Boston Common and finale at the Evelyn Mokely Bridge near Fort Point Channel, the site of the 1773 Boston Tea Party, where the activists will ceremoniously toss larger-than-life-sized copies of the 9/11 Commission Report and other documents into Boston Harbor.
More Evidence of Obstruction of Justice in 9/11 Investigation
Sunday, 9 December 2007 12:42 A GMT-05
By now you've heard that the CIA destroyed videotapes of interrogations of alleged Al Qaeda members. The interesting part of this story is that the 9/11 Commission claimed that it obtained most of its information about the attacks from these interrogations (and then only indirectly as reported by the military to the Commission; the Commission never met the alleged detainees, was not allowed to submit questions to them directly, nor was it allowed to question the alleged interrogators to assess their credibility).

SWC Targeting/Labeling 9/11 Truth and Justice as Digital Terrorism and Hate
Saturday, 8 December 2007 1:21 A GMT-05
Personally, I think the SWC has embarrassed itself in doing what they have done, and made themselves lesser than what they should be and claim to be. As a supporter of them and their otherwise and usually fine work, I don't like that. The question is, are they going to correct their error, or are they going to make it worse? The 2008 edition might be in production right now and erroneously contain not only 911Truth.org, but perhaps AE911Truth.org, Scholars for 9/11 Truth and Justice, 911Blogger.com, and a host of other websites that don't deserve to be there. We can always hope they see the errors of their ways, but I'm not holding my breath.
Former President of Italy: 9/11 was an Inside Job

On November 30th, the former President of Italy, Francesco Cossiga, wrote in Italy's largest newspaper: [Bin Laden supposedly confessed] to the Qaeda September [attack] to the two towers in New York [claiming to be] the author of the attack of the 11, while all the [intelligence services] of America and Europe ... now know well that the disastrous attack has been planned and realized from the CIA American and the Mossad with the aid of the Zionist world in order to put under accusation the Arabic Countries and in order to induce the western powers to take part ... in Iraq [and] Afghanistan.
Response Letter to the Boston Globe, "The Science of How Buildings Fall Down", 3 Dec 2007
Wednesday, 5 December 2007 10:55 A GMT-05
This experiment provides further reason to doubt the “official story” that gravity alone was enough to cause complete and rapid destruction of the WTC Towers and WTC 7. WTC 7, a 47-story skyscraper, was not even hit by a plane, yet it completely collapsed on the afternoon of 9/11/2001. This experiment confirms our argument that buildings are designed to stand, not give up and fall down completely even if a key support column is destroyed in an instant (see technical articles in the JournalOf911Studies.com). On the other hand, we have all seen controlled demolitions using explosives in which tall buildings are brought straight down – completely and quickly. Of course, such a process leaves behind tell-tale residues. I will discuss the residues our team of investigators has in fact discovered in the WTC dust, at Faneuil Hall on Dec. 15, 2007.

Saturday, 1 December 2007 1:51 P GMT-05
In the video clip taken from a November 18th function, Kathy Walker, whose father was in the north tower of the World Trade Center on 9/11, asks McCain why he lent his name to "a book that's aim is to stifle the efforts of those trying to bring about justice, accountability, and closure in regard to 9/11." McCain responds that an "overwhelming majority of Americans believe the conclusions" of the 9/11 Commission before going on to triumph the expertise of the Commission.

Collateral does not belong to a media organization and is funded entirely by its producers. If you find the show worthy, please pass it on.
No, HE Couldn't Fly Either
Friday, 30 November 2007 1:54 A GMT-05
The fact that Hani Hanjour -- the alleged pilot of the Boeing airplane which crashed into the Pentagon -- could not fly at all is now being challenged by apparent CIA informant Louai al-Sakka, who says that it was actually Nawaf al-Hazmi who piloted the plane. Al-Sakka explains that al-Hamzi was a "a veteran operative". However, al-Hamzi was also a terrible pilot.
New Bin Laden "Confession" Tape: Fake Like The Rest?
Friday, 30 November 2007 1:34 A GMT-05
In a "new" audio tape broadcast today on Al-Jazeera television, Osama Bin Laden confesses that he was solely responsible for the attacks on 9/11 and that it was unjust for the United States to have invaded Afghanistan. However, given that every single tape and video of Bin Laden released since 2002 has been in some way highly suspect, the question that will automatically be on everyone's lips is "Is this tape another fake?"

What's Scarier: A 9/11 Conspiracy or the Official Story?
Tuesday, 27 November 2007 1:04 A GMT-05
I'm a lot less scared of the ragtag Al Qaeda wannabes. Having people who murdered 3,000 innocent Americans with their fingers on the levers of power of the world's sole superpower -- that is much scarier. Indeed, psychologists and psychiatrists say that people who do not question the government's version of 9/11 are in denial -- that is, that they are too afraid to look at the facts.
Do 9/11 Conspiracies Stem from a Distrust in the Government?
Tuesday, 27 November 2007 1:01 A GMT-05
The defenders of the official version of 9/11 argue that "the high percentage is a manifestation ... of an American public that increasingly distrusts the federal government." In other words, they argue that the approximately 200 million people who say that the emperor has no clothes have an illogical distrust of the emperor, and so they are seeing things. They've got the whole cause-and-effect backwards. In fact, the American public increasingly distrusts the federal government because it is becoming more and more obvious that elements of the government carried out -- or at the very least -- aided and abetted the 9/11 attacks. Despite the say-nothing media, the American public is getting the fact that the government's story about 9/11 just doesn't add up and that the vast majority of people in every relevant field who have examined 9/11 say so.
CLARIFICATION WANTED FROM WIESENTHAL CENTER
Tuesday, 27 November 2007 12:37 A GMT-05
Equally disturbing in your PowerPoint presentation is the juxtaposition of the website Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth.org with Taliban recruitment sites detailing how to make bombs, take captives and blow up buildings. How and why you equate American architectural and engineering professionals examining the nature of the destruction of three American architectural icons with radical fringe elements of Islamic extremism is not only unfathomable, but can justifiably be construed as being motivated by malicious intent. Within the context of the liberties protected in our constitutional republic, the United States of America is the freedom of intellectual pursuit and the right to challenge our government, its policies, its actions and non-actions.
Flight School Head Admits Neither He Nor 9/11 Hijackers Could Fly 9/11 Planes
Tuesday, 27 November 2007 12:34 A GMT-05
According to the owner of a flight school at which 2 of the 4 accused 9/11 hijack pilots trained on simple aircraft with questionable competence, neither he nor the 9/11 hijackers implicated in the attacks, could pilot the 757 and 767 aircraft that they are alleged to have flown into targets on September 11, 2001.
NORTHEAST PREMIERE OF LOOSE CHANGE: FINAL CUT
Monday, 26 November 2007 2:28 A GMT-05
Come and see the new film "Loose Change: Final Cut," at the Colonial Theatre in Keene, NH. This film is the third and last installment of the documentary series that has shocked the world. The all new film takes another look at the attacks of September 11th, and raises difficult questions surrounding the event that changed our lives forever. With a wealth of unseen news footage and interviews, including former members of government, scientists, and academics, Loose Change Final Cut delivers the truth in an unadulterated fashion rarely seen in cinema today. Speakers will include 9/11 first responder and Ground Zero worker John Feal (who will speak about the effects of 9/11 on those who were there), the creators of Loose Change, Dylan Avery and Jason Bermas, and the founders of Student Scholars for 9/11 Truth, Justin Martell and Michael Jackman. Profits to benefit The Fealgood Foundation, founded by John Feal, helping people affected by 9/11 and the toxins at Ground Zero.
Blatant bias and slanted story at Scripps
Monday, 26 November 2007 2:27 A GMT-05
Your publication should apologize and offer to do an honest investigation of the 9/11 government complicity issue. How difficult would it be to assign some professionals to investigate what "two-thirds of Americans" have already discovered on their own? This condescending attack mode (which is prevalant across corporate media) is not carrying the day obviously, as your own polls indicate.
Al-Qaeda Kingpin: I Trained 9/11 Hijackers
Monday, 26 November 2007 2:25 A GMT-05
How damning that it takes a libertarian Republican to remind the leading Democratic candidates of the opportunity costs of a war that most Democrats in Congress voted for. But they don't need to take Paul's word for it; last week, the majority staff of the Joint Economic Committee in Congress came up with similarly startling estimates of the long-term costs of this war.
The New Inquisition Against 9/11 Truth
Sunday, 25 November 2007 8:49 P GMT-05
So, What were they thinking? Why would more than 200 architects and engineers who are calling on Congress to hold an independent investigation as to what really happened to the Twin Towers and WTC Building 7 get associated with islamic extremists? It has become painfully obvious that when Glenn Beck (a CNN host who recently said that Truthers were of the same ilk as Oklahoma City bomber, Timothy McVeigh) and a Homeland Security subcommittee do a smear job on Truthers they are doing so not because they are violent, or because their ideas are helping to recruit terrorists, but because they are threatening to the whole "War on Terror" agenda -- an agenda foisted on us by the military industrial complex and their corporate sponsors.
Poll: 2/3rds Of US Believe 9/11 Conspiracy
Sunday, 25 November 2007 6:25 P GMT-05
Nearly two-thirds of Americans think it is possible that some federal officials had specific warnings of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on New York and Washington, but chose to ignore those warnings, according to a Scripps Howard News Service/Ohio University poll. A national survey of 811 adult residents of the United States conducted by Scripps and Ohio University found that more than a third believe in a broad smorgasbord of conspiracy theories, including the attacks, international plots to rig oil prices, the plot to assassinate President John F. Kennedy in 1963 and the government’s knowledge of intelligent life from other worlds. The high percentage is a manifestation, some say, of an American public that increasingly distrusts the federal government.
The First Fifteen Minutes of September 11th: Former Air Traffic Controller Robin Hordon
Sunday, 25 November 2007 5:34 P GMT-05
In addition to my career as an Air Traffic Controller, I have a great deal of other experience in aviation. I was a Certified Commercial Pilot and accumulated 1600 hours total time in light aircraft; qualified in Single-Engine Land, Multi-Engine Land, Single-Engine Sea, and Glider. I was also a Certified Flight Instructor and Certified Ground Instructor. And prior to my becoming an Air Traffic Controller, I passed the Flight Engineer Basic exam focused on the Boeing 727 and accumulated over 2000 hours of aircraft maintenance, repair and rebuilding time. I knew within hours of the attacks on 9/11/2001 that it was an inside job. Based on my 11-year experience as an FAA Air Traffic Controller in the busy Northeast corridor, including hundreds of hours of training, briefings, air refuelings, low altitude bombing drills, being part of huge military exercises, daily military training exercises, interacting on a routine basis directly with NORAD radar personnel, and based on my own direct experience dealing with in-flight emergency situations, including two instances of hijacked commercial airliners, I state unequivocally; There is absolutely no way that four large commercial airliners could have flown around off course for 30 to 60 minutes on 9/11 without being intercepted and shot completely out of the sky by our jet fighters unless very highly placed people in our government and our military wanted it to happen.

Open Letter to Jane Harman, Re: Terrorism and the Internet
Monday, 19 November 2007 12:57 A GMT-05
It appears to me that this group, whose core members are mostly architectural professionals are not terrorists, racists, or "conspiracy theorists". They present evidence that when looked at in an empirical manner, "not blinded by conjecture, mirror-imaging, politically partisan prisms and wishful thinking", an objective observer will conclude that they should join them in a call for a new investigation into the collapses of the World Trade Center. I hope that there is some objectivity at play in these Hearings, and that testimony is carefully evaluated, and sorted.
Lee Hamilton Admits WTC 7 Issue Remains Unresolved
Sunday, 18 November 2007 6:20 P GMT-05
Hamilon struggles to provide an answer, citing the "extreme heat from the collapse of the twin towers," somehow failing to explain how heat can demolish a building 350 feet away. Hamilton admits that the WTC 7 issue has "not been finally resolved" and that other questions about the attack will linger on, before stating that he did not believe the U.S. government was involved in 9/11.
The Breakdown of the FBI Anti-Terror Team on 9/11
Sunday, 18 November 2007 5:40 P GMT-05
Despite the implications of this incredible information, only one newspaper covered it. In a report published that same day, USA Today briefly described: "The attack was so unexpected that a joint FBI/CIA anti-terrorist task force that specifically prepared for this type of disaster was on a training exercise in Monterey, Calif." The politics website Evote.com also mentioned the incident, concluding: "just as the worst terrorist act was being committed on American lives and property, the chief federal agency responsible for preventing such crimes was being AWOL." But, in the six years since, this information has been ignored, and no mention was made of it in the 9/11 Commission Report. If the official theory about 9/11 is correct, and the attacks were indeed perpetrated by Osama bin Laden and Al Qaeda, then the absence of the FBI's antiterrorist experts at the one time they were most needed must be a freak coincidence. However, if the official theory is wrong, then this could have been part of a deliberate attempt to 'stand down' normal lines of defense, so as to ensure that the attacks succeeded.
Explosive and Revealing Quotations about 9-11 Completely Ignored by the Mainstream Media
Sunday, 18 November 2007 5:37 P GMT-05
Omission is one of the most powerful tools of disinformation used by the MSM. We see this every day when they do not cover those questioning the official story of 9/11, or when they fail to do this job themselves as implied in this Fox Memo. When they do, they highlight the weakest theories and unprovable speculation along with the ad-hominem "conspiracy theorist" and “conspiracy theories”.
ae911truth.org: A Response to the Simon Wiesenthal Center and Mark Weitzman
Sunday, 18 November 2007 5:23 P GMT-05
While I believe your efforts are well-meaning, I strongly request, before you promote such assumptions, that you actually INVESTIGATE for yourself the aspects of 9/11 which are questioned by these experts I mention previously, and, regardless of your conclusion, refrain from incorrectly and libelously suggesting that anyone involved in this movement has any connection to terrorist activities or threats, simply based on their opinions or completely legal efforts in this regard. In doing so you denigrate the noble work the Simon Wiesenthal Center has done in the past, and the lives of those who died over the centuries for our freedoms. The right to freely question and investigate our government at any time and about ANYTHING is critical to the survival of our freedom and this country I love.
Jarek Kupsc Reports on World Premiere of The Reflecting Pool
Sunday, 18 November 2007 4:35 A GMT-05
Just wanted to tell you a little bit about our Florida screening. The show was a big success - we had a full house (the organizers told us it was the best-attended screening of the festival). People reacted vividly to the information and some were shocked they have not heard anything like that before. After the screening I explained what our sources were and answered many questions. Most comments were simply congratulatory - nobody seemed offended in any way. I had an older
Republican woman tell me she felt sorry she'd voted for Bush. Everybody was asking when the movie is coming out, to which I replied
that we would like to make the movie available on dvd in December.

BBC To Apologize For 9/11 Truth Hit Piece?
Wednesday, 14 November 2007 1:37 A GMT-05
John A. Blacker, a qualified physicist & mechanical engineer and a member of Scholars for 9/11 Truth & Justice, is currently engaged in a pre-action protocol with the BBC in an attempt to settle out of court and get an apology from the broadcaster as well as a guarantee that the program will never be shown on television again. In a letter to the BBC, Blacker cites a catalogue of errors, distortions and outright lies that were contained in the program, arguing that the documentary is an insult to those that lost their lives on 9/11. "The Conspiracy files team spoke to and recorded the testimony of many eyewitnesses, fire fighters, police officers, and public high witnesses, plus also officialdom high witnesses and had access to written testimony from many high witnesses via official sites on the WWW," writes Blacker. "YET NOT ONE SINGLE HIGH WITNESS WAS PRESENTED IN THE DOCUMENTARY TO PUT THE TRUTH PERSPECTIVE," he adds. "The Conspiracy Files Documentary was a work of Total Public deception from start to end, perfectly crafted to stealthily deceive and forward nothing which was conclusive either one way or the other, in other words, perfect propaganda YELLOW journalism by stealth, omission & deception," Blacker concludes, after citing dozens of examples of bias, fraud and agenda-driven presentation. In a clear sign that BBC are struggling to form a case for the legal defense of the program, they have put back a meeting with Blacker for the third time in succession, now agreeing to a late November date.
Simon Wiesenthal Center presents 9/11 sites alongside radical Jihadist sites to House Hearing on "Terrorism and the Internet"
Wednesday, 14 November 2007 1:25 A GMT-05
Toward the end of the hearing, Weitzman rolls out a PowerPoint presentation that presents a few 9/11 truth sites sandwiched in between websites that offer training in terrorist tactics, and a website that glorified the attack of 9/11. Among the websites presented under the heading "Internet: Incubator of 9/11 Conpiracies and Disinformation", are Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, and other sites, such as Killtown's, who brought this Hearing to our attention. Now, we wouldn't want anybody getting the wrong idea here. Here at 911blogger we are opposed to any and all terrorist activities, including STATE SPONSORED TERRORISM. Don't really care who the state is either. It's all bad. Californians, if Harman is your representative, please set her straight. Washington state, if Reichert is your critter, don't let him absorb this crap with no static.
Keep Your Hats On: Keith Seffen's "Mathematical Model Of The WTC Collapse" Is Incoherent, Inappropriate, And Almost Meaningless
Monday, 12 November 2007 12:25 A GMT-05
In one sense, the paper is meaningless. It shows nothing with respect to the collapse of the towers. But on the other hand, it's not entirely meaningless. It shows how implausible the official story really is. If a Cambridge University whiz kid with a PhD a list of papers a mile long can't make a better attempt than this ... no! Keith Seffen has not bolstered the official explanation of 9/11 in any way; in fact -- and as can be seen by all who read his paper with an open mind -- he has discredited the official story even further.
Hillary Criticized Bush Admin for Secretive 9/11 Actions Despite Staff Convicted of Destroying Classified 9/11 Documents
Saturday, 10 November 2007 5:08 P GMT-05
Despite Hillary's hopeful sounding rhetoric on 9/11, she is far from a truther and has now recruited Sandy Berger, a former staff member from her husband's administration, into her campaign and likely her administration. Berger, who was also present at the 2003 New American Strategies meeting, was convicted for stealing classified documents from the national security archives pertaining to pre-9/11 Al-Qaeda intelligence, though he was only punished with a $50,000 fine and 100 hours of community service. The document theft took place between September 2 and October 2, 2003, with 9/11 Commission investigation underway, according to the charges, and less than a month before the October 28 New American Strategies conference. Thus Hillary's criticism of 'suspicious' behavior in the Bush Administration clearly stands in hypocrisy, as it is horrifyingly clear that both administrations were "hiding something" about 9/11.

WTC 'Collapse' Research Cited In September Is Scheduled To Be Published In February
Friday, 9 November 2007 11:26 A GMT-05
University of Cambridge lecturer Keith Seffen's mathematical model describing the collapse of the World Trade Center as "an ordinary thing" is scheduled to be published in the February 2008 issue of the Journal of Engineering Mechanics, according to the publisher. The paper, entitled "Progressive Collapse of the World Trade Centre: a Simple Analysis", purports to prove that the "collapse" of the WTC towers, once it got started, was "destined to be rapid and thorough" and "an ordinary thing to have happened." On September 11, 2007, the BBC and several other news providers gave uncritical summaries of Dr. Seffen's research and stated that his paper had been published in the Journal of Engineering Mechanics (JEM), a monthly from the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE). But a search of the ASCE website turned up no mention of Dr. Seffen or his paper.
Is This 20-Year CIA Vet Crazy For Saying 9/11 Is a Probable Inside Job?
Thursday, 8 November 2007 9:50 A GMT-05
Robert Baer is no "radical left loony" as Bill O'Reilly would allege and neither does he lean to the right. He is a widely respected expert on intelligence matters and middle eastern foreign policy, an Emmy award nominated documentarian and a strong advocate of the CIA's need to increase Human Intelligence (HUMINT) on the ground. Baer served as a clandestine officer in Madras and New Delhi, India; in Beirut, Lebanon; in Dushanbe, Tajikistan; and in Salah al-Din in Kurdish northern Iraq. While in Iraq, Baer tried to persuade the Clinton administration to back a coup to overthrow Saddam Hussein. So when Baer told a radio host that "the evidence points at" 9/11 having had aspects of being an inside job, the noisy negativists and the trolls were notable by their absence.

NYC Mayor Takes Heat Over 'Hero' Remark on 911 1st Responder James Zadroga
Thursday, 8 November 2007 8:47 A GMT-05
City police unions and the family of a dead police detective who worked on Sept. 11 cleanup called Tuesday for Mayor Michael Bloomberg to apologize for saying the officer is "not a hero" because his death was ruled unrelated to the toxic debris. Speaking Monday to students at Harvard University, Bloomberg was asked about the idea of applying hard science to public policy. In his answer, he brought up Chief Medical Examiner Charles Hirsch's recent conclusion that retired police detective James Zadroga's fatal lung disease was caused not by dust from the collapse of the World Trade Center but by self-administered injections of ground-up pills. "Nobody wanted to hear that; we wanted to have a hero, and there are plenty of heroes," Bloomberg said. "It's just, in this case, science says this was not a hero."
Where's The Paper? Did The BBC And A Cambridge Don Commit Fraud To Cover Up Mass Murder?
Wednesday, 7 November 2007 11:29 A GMT-05
If Keith Seffen and the BBC and Cambridge and Ross Corotis and the JEM are all collaborating on such an obvious fraud as pretending there's a paper when there isn't, then the world should know about it, in my view. If there is such a paper, then where is it? Has it been published or not? Is it scheduled to be published or not? Is it available for review? All these questions have been ignored. In other words, there's your answer. If there is such a paper, then we should be able to see it and review it and decide on the basis of the math whether or not it makes sense, whether or not the collapse it describes is plausible, and equally important, whether or not the collapse it describes corresponds to what we know about the events of the day. And if there is no paper, are we looking at accessories-after-the-fact in a case of mass murder?

A tale of two decisions (or, how the FBI gets you to confess)
Saturday, 27 October 2007 4:35 P GMT-05
The long and the short of it was that an Egpytian national, Abdallah Higazy, was staying in a hotel in New York City on September 11 and the hotel emptied out when the planes hit the towers. The hotel later found in the closet of his room a device that allows you to communicate with airline pilots. Investigators thought this guy had something to do with 9/11 so they questioned him. According to Higazi, the investigators coerced him into confessing to a role in 9/11. Higazi first adamantly denied any involvement with 9/11 and could not believe what was happening to him. Then, he says, the investigator said his family would go through hell in Egypt, where they torture people like Saddam Hussein. Higazy then realized he had a choice: he could continue denying the radio was his and his family suffers ungodly torture in Egypt or he confesses and his family is spared. Of course, by confessing, Higazy's life is worth garbage at that point, but ... well, that's why coerced confessions are outlawed in the United States. So Higazy "confesses" and he's processed by the criminal justice system. His future is quite bleak. Meanwhile, an airline pilot later shows up at the hotel and asks for his radio back. This is like something out of the movies. The radio belonged to the pilot, not Higazy, and Higazy was free to go, the victim of horrible timing. Higazi was innocent! He next sued the hotel and the FBI agent for coercing his confession. The bottom line in the Court of Appeals: Higazy has a case and may recover damages for this injustice. As I read the opinion I realized it was a 44 page epic, too long for me to print out. I blogged about the opinion while I read it online and then posted the blog as I ate lunch. Then something strange happened: a few minutes after I posted the blog, the opinion vanished from the Court of Appeals website! I had never seen this before, and what made all the more strange was that it involved a coerced confession over 9/11. What the hell was going on? I let some other legal bloggers know about this, particulary the How Appealing blog and Appellate Law and Practice. They both ran a commentary on the missing opinion. Then someone sent How Appealing a PDF of the decision (probably very few of them were floating around since the opinion was posted for a brief period of time) and How Appealing posted the decison. Then things got even stranger. The Court of Appeals actually phoned How Appealing to request that he remove the opinion from his website since it contained classified information. The Court said that a revised opinion would come out the next day without the classified information. How Appealing actually refused to remove the opinion. Through it all, hundreds of people came to my legal blog to see my summary of the opinion. It was either my blog or printing out and reading a 44 page epic. The next day, the Court of Appeals reissued the Higazy opinion. With a redaction. The court simply omitted from the revised decision facts about how the FBI agent extracted the false confession from Higazy. For some reason, this information is classified. Just as the opinion gets interesting, when we are about to learn how an FBI agent named Templeton squeezed the "truth" out of Higazy, the opinion reads at page 7: "This opinion has been redacted because portions of the record are under seal. For the purposes of the summary judgment motion, Templeton did not contest that Higazy's statements were coerced."

Also, can you show me where the New York Times reported on the following: On August 4th, 2006, 9/11 family members Lorie Van Auken, Patty Casazza, Mindy Kleinberg, and Monica Gabrielle released a statement that questioned the "entire veracity" of the 9/11 Commission's report. On September 5th, 2006, a documentary endorsed by the families that fought for the creation of the 9/11 Commission was released entitled, "9/11: Press For Truth." On September 11th, 2006, at the National Press Club in Washington D.C., family members Donna Marsh O'Connor, Michelle Little, and Christina Kminek asked for, "a new investigation into the events of September 11th, and this time, a truly bipartisan, global, with families invested from the beginning, middle, and throughout the end."
NYC Rejects Listing Worker As 9/11 Death
Saturday, 20 October 2007 1:08 A GMT-05
James Zadroga, the 34-year-old retired police detective who died of respiratory failure after working hundreds of hours at the World Trade Center site, was often cited by those advocates as a "sentinel case" — the first health-related casualty linked to ground zero, suggesting there would be more to follow. The city's medical examiner stunned that community this week in a letter declaring that Zadroga's death had nothing to do with the toxic air he breathed while working at ground zero. Rejecting another medical examiner's autopsy that called Zadroga's death "directly related" to his post-Sept. 11 work, New York City Chief Medical Examiner Charles Hirsch said in a letter to Zadroga's family that his death was not caused by exposure to trade center dust. "It is our unequivocal opinion, with certainty beyond doubt, that the foreign material in your son's lungs did not get there as the result of inhaling dust at the World Trade Center or elsewhere," said the letter to Zadroga's father. It was signed by Hirsch and another medical examiner, Michele Slone. The letter was obtained Thursday by The Associated Press.
9/11 Truth Has the Power to Unravel Fascism
Thursday, 18 October 2007 11:30 A GMT-05
Numerous prominent gatekeepers have recently said that 9/11 truth is a "distraction", and "takes energy away from working on more important issues". Are they right? Actually, 9/11 is the core issue, the central knot which holds all of the other tyrannical actions of the last 6 years together. When the central knot of 9/11 lies is pulled, it will cause the entire fascist mess to unravel. Here's why:

Citizen Investigation Team picks up where the media has failed and presents to you more previously unknown eyewitnesses to the plane that allegedly hit the Pentagon. The people in the neighborhoods of Arlington saw a white jet fly tree top level over their homes seconds before the explosion presenting further evidence that fatally contradicts the official story. This testimony sheds light on why there was at least one other mysterious white jet that was called in to circle no fly zones minutes before and after the time of the attack.

Cynthia McKinney's Big Issue - 9/11 Truth
Wednesday, 17 October 2007 12:20 A GMT-05
She admits that the efforts of the 9/11 Truth Movement in holding the government accountable, in part, attracted her to the cause. That a group of people from “different strains of outrage” can be moved enough to mobilise themselves at a grassroots level interest her even more. “People of conscience see the government as having taken a wrong turn and they have begun mobilising for a different path. Elected officials have lost their principles and the American people need to reclaim the government for themselves,” she says. According to McKinney, this reality did not hit home in the aftermath of 9/11 but only in the months and now years since Hurricane Katrina destroyed most of New Orleans. She describes the catastrophe as a “revelation for the world” and the government’s response to it as “an insult to all intelligent American people.” “It showed the US government to be a hugely successful propagandist and a huge liar,” she says, her southern drawl suddenly reaching crescendo. “Katrina unveiled shocking statistics. Black people have known them for years but suddenly those figures meant something to white people. The pauperisation of this country at the expense of a war has moved people of conscience. It feels the same as when the American people woke up to what was happening in Vietnam.”
Richard Gage, AIA in San Diego- A huge success!
Tuesday, 16 October 2007 11:54 P GMT-05
Last weekend we were grateful enough to have Richard Gage, AIA here in San Diego to host two unbelievable events. His second presentation was Sunday night, and the room was full 10 minutes before the event even started. By the end of the night there were about 175 people eagerly packed in the 150 capacity room, all blown away by his irrefutable analysis. His presentation incontrovertibly proved the case for controlled demolition, and opened a lot of minds. Join Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth in demanding a new investigation! www.ae911truth.org
NIST IMPLICITLY ADMITS: WTC TOWERS DESTROYED IN CONTROLLED DEMOLITION
Tuesday, 16 October 2007 11:51 P GMT-05
It is not surprising that NIST cannot explain a scenario that blatantly violates the basic laws of physics. What is surprising is that every newspaper in the world is not printing screaming front-page headlines reading NIST IMPLICITLY ADMITS: WTC TOWERS DESTROYED IN CONTROLLED DEMOLITION.
Handcuffed, Assaulted, Ticketed By Cop For Distributing 9/11 DVD's
Tuesday, 16 October 2007 2:02 A GMT-05
Josh was eventually allowed to leave but not before being cited for a misdemeanor and given a ticket. The comments section of the ticket reads "passing out 9-11 CD's," which is supposedly now a crime in police state America. Skoll's court date is to be set within the next few weeks. Skoll is not the first to be harassed and abused by police for handing out free information. In 2004, Kelly Rushing was charged with making "terroristic threats" after he handed out Alex Jones' videos and recordings of a Ron Paul speech on C-Span to Lyon County, Kentucky officials and Kentucky State Trooper Lewis Dobbs. A jury later ruled in favor of Rushing but he continues to be harassed by authorities and local law enforcement.
Treason in Shreveport
Tuesday, 16 October 2007 1:30 A GMT-05
A week ago, I returned from a fact-finding mission in Shreveport, New Orleans and Houston. Alongside reporter Jordan Green, I met many of Dr. Graham’s surviving friends and coworkers. Every one of them indicated that Dr. Graham’s death deserves a deeper investigation. No one believes that Dr. Graham was unstable, or suicidal. The only party to allege that Dr. Graham could have taken his own life is the Shreveport FBI. I personally did a face-to-face interview with FBI Special Agent Stephen Hayes, when I stumbled into him at his office in Shreveport. The tone and content of his comments were indicative. He was hostile, and belittling. The interview ended when he “called security” on me and Mr. Green, (who was there reporting for Yes! Weekly, Greensboro, N.C.) Dr. Graham met two 9/11 terrorists, ten months before 9/11, in his native Shreveport. He was a medical associate of Dr. Mohammed Habeeb Ahmed (now a resident of San Jose, CA, we believe) and an associate of current federal fugitive Mohammed Jamal Khan (now residing in his native Pakistan, we believe). Dr. Graham was meticulous about these meetings. He wrote a book he tried to publish (“The 9/11 Graham Report”) and even created a set of four video tapes in which he clandestinely recorded Khan and Ahmed in his office in 2002 and 2003, discussing the year 2000 meetings with 9/11 hijackers Nawaf al-Hazmi and Fayez Banihammad. In his book, Graham discusses cardboard boxes in Khan’s apartment that indicated that Khan was supplying documents or supplies to Khalid al-Mihdhar, who with al-Hazmi, was later identified to be one of the “ringleaders” of 9/11. Khan also had boxes bearing the names Nawaf al-Hazmi and Fayez Banihammad.
NIST: "We are Unable to Provide a Full Explanation of the Total Collapse"
Tuesday, 16 October 2007 1:25 A GMT-05
Well, yes! That's exactly the point the petitioners are trying to make. No modern steel frame high-rise building has ever collapsed before or after 9/11 due to fire other than at WTC 1, 2 and 7, even though other fires have burned longer and hotter. And even if they somehow did start to collapse, the collapse would not have occurred at virtual free-fall speeds while creating enormous dust clouds right from the start. So yes . . . NIST will forever be "unable to provide a full explanation of the total collapse" unless it stops covering up the evidence that the Twin Towers and Building 7 were brought down by controlled demolition.
Philly 9/11 Truth confronts former Terrorism Analyst Jonathan Schanzer
Monday, 15 October 2007 3:41 A GMT-05
After Schazner instilled enough fear to seize the courage of even the most valiant of hearts, a question and answer session was opened up. Philly 9/11 Truth members promptly challenged the mythical paradigms that Schanzer constructed over his thirty minutes of unfettered inculcation. 9/11 of course being the prime issue of concern was naturally the subject of the first inquiry. Since Schanzer was a former intelligence analyst who dealt with tracking terrorism financing there was nothing more apropos than the $100,000 wire transfer to Muhammad Atta which was traced by the FBI’s counterterrorism division to Lt General Mahmud Ahmad of the Pakistani ISI. The ISI has historically been a conduit for CIA financing of dissident groups however Schazner asserted that there is “no way in hell” that the U.S. “advertently or inadvertently” funded the 9/11 attacks. Next, he was challenged about the CIA’s funding of radical groups in Iran. He claimed ignorance of the subject, but agreed that it was possible and bizarrely stated that he “wouldn’t be surprised if similar groups were in the United States.” For the grand finale he was confronted about the role of the CIA in the overthrow of Mossadegh in Iran. He responded with cold justification of the actions perpetrated by the CIA claiming them as a defensive maneuver against a threatening communist dictator. Even though Schanzer was immediately reprimanded for his disingenuous diagnosis of Prime Minister Mossadegh who was in reality a pro-Western democratically elected official, he quieted the dissent by ending the session. Afterward he was approached for an interview concerning the financing of 9/11 but insisted that he could not speak on the subject due to the classified nature of his previous dealings with the U.S. Department of Treasury.
9/11 TRUTH: ICELANDIC SCHOLAR ELIAS DAVIDSSON'S UK TOUR
Monday, 15 October 2007 2:07 A GMT-05
Contrary to popular belief, however, the US authorities have not positively identified the perpetrators, nor their accomplices, nor the tools of the murder. Yet the victims and society as a whole are entitled, under human rights law, to know the truth about the events of 9/11. In his lectures, Elias will outline the moral and legal foundations for the right to the truth, the obligations of states to thoroughly investigate mass murder, and will illustrate the extent to which US authorities have violated their international obligations to establish the truth about what happened on 11 September 2001.

FBI Refuses To Confirm Identities Of 4 Aircraft Used During 9/11 Attacks
Thursday, 4 October 2007 12:05 A GMT-05

An appeal is pending. According to the FBI, "the material requested is located in an investigative file which is exempt from disclosure pursuant to Title 5, United States Code, Section 552, subsection (b) (7) (A)." This subsection reads: "could be reasonably be expected to interfere with enforcement proceedings."

Former NIST Employee Blows Whistle
Wednesday, 3 October 2007 11:33 P GMT-05
When I first heard of [9/11 truth] and how the NIST "scientists" involved in 911 seemed to act in very un-scientific ways, it was not at all surprising to me. By 2001, everyone in NIST leadership had been trained to pay close heed to political pressures. There was no chance that NIST people "investigating" the 911 situation could have been acting in the true spirit of scientific independence, nor could they have operated at all without careful consideration of political impact. Everything that came from the hired guns was by then routinely filtered through the front office, and assessed for political implications before release.
Giuliani's 9/11 Albatross
Wednesday, 3 October 2007 1:50 A GMT-05
9/11 truthers are continually making headlines after confronting Giuliani on his foreknowledge of the collapse of the twin towers. Giuliani keeps flip flopping on the issue, having stated on 9/11 that he was warned ahead of time of the imminent collapse. Truthers have also been at pains to expose Giuliani's criminal culpability in the scandal that led to officials falsifying EPA reports and certifying the air safe to breathe in the immediate aftermath of 9/11. The fallout from this has seen hundreds of first responders die from breathing ailments and lung diseases and left hundreds more dying with no aid from a government which still refuses to admit it is liable.

Sunday, 30 September 2007 4:06 P GMT-05
Ending the nightmare will take far less courage than the Bush people exhibited in beginning it. Taking a nation to war on distortion, deception and lies is enormously risky in many respects: in lives and in treasure, certainly, but also in a nation's prestige abroad and in the trust and support of its people. The Bush administration risked all this and more, and it has lost. We risk far less by embracing the truth and acting on it. Our nation cherishes honesty: the fraudulence must end. But Bush and Cheney have shown themselves incapable of honesty, and we also cherish justice. They must be impeached.

Do 9/11 Conspiracy Theories Upset You? American Chronicle Hit Piece?
Thursday, 27 September 2007 6:50 A GMT-05
On September 11, 2001 America was attacked. If you wish to believe it was arranged and executed by shadow agents of the U.S. whose brilliant competence is so overwhelming there's no physical evidence of a conspiracy, so be it. Let's emphasize physical evidence, because anyone can look at video or listen to cell phone calls and glean theories: this is conjecture and opinion, not evidence. Furthermore, you must also believe not one person with inside conspiracy knowledge, has sought either because of soul searching or inevitable financial gain of anonymous whistle blowing to a media organization for a staggering fortune, to lay open publicly what would be the most earth shaking conspiracy ever. Or you can, as the majority of the world has, believe a preponderance of evidence that a group of terrorists conceived, trained for and executed a plot to exploit the then rather open nature of airlines turning America's airplanes against itself. After six years, it may be a bitter pill to swallow that this band of hate mongers succeeded in doing the unthinkable, but it's the best supported theory. Also remember it was the World Trade Center - people from many other countries lost lives. It was in every important way an international tragedy. If nations who lost people - suspected "shadow conspiracy" - wouldn't they want answers?

Structural Engineers Question Collapse of the World Trade Center

However, that is now changing. The following structural engineers have now publicly challenged the government's account of the destruction of the Trade Centers on 9/11:
Google Doesn't Like 911truth.org

Astute readers have brought some virtual outrage to our attention in the last few days, which we're passing on here, in hopes it will be of help to you in making decisions about virtual privacy and safety, and as yet more evidence that the practice of censoring 'inconvenient' truth is alive and well right here in the good ol' USofA. These readers reported that an internet search for 911truth.org, using Google's search engine, no longer finds 911truth.org in the results! Intrepid researchers that we are, we tried this for ourselves and, indeed, they're right! Go ahead...try it. Enter "911truth.org" in a Google search bar and you'll find, currently, the first entry in response is some unheard of site based in the country Nauru. (Nauru?, we asked ourselves, wondering how we could possibly have missed that in geography class. Wikipedia helped with that oversight. Ah, but, of course! It's that 8.1 square mile phosphate rock island in Micronesia, whose government "has resorted to unusual measures to obtain income." Briefly a tax haven and money laundering center, Nauru now houses a detention center for Australian asylum seekers.) Well, then--that explains it, eh? So then, the site with the greatest number of hits which most closely matches the search string "911truth.org" is ... not ... 911truth.org? In fact, the main (index) page of 911truth.org isn't even in the list generated by a Google search for '911truth.org'! A page from our site linking to the Chicago conference we hosted in June 2006 shows up. Meaning more viewers are looking at last year's conference announcement than the current front page of 911truth.org? Not so with other search engines, such as Ask, AltaVista and Yahoo... as one would expect, the first hit for this search is--surprise--911truth.org.
Seven CIA Veterans Challenge 9/11 Commission Report
Tuesday, 25 September 2007 12:54 A GMT-05
Seven CIA veterans have severely criticized the official account of 9/11 and have called for a new investigation. “I think at simplest terms, there’s a cover-up. The 9/11 Report is a joke,” said Raymond McGovern, 27-year veteran of the CIA, who chaired National Intelligence Estimates during the seventies. “There are a whole bunch of unanswered questions. And the reason they’re unanswered is because this administration will not answer the questions,” he said. McGovern, who is also the founder of VIPS (Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity), is one of many signers of a petition to reinvestigate 9/11.

And you will see names of people and titles of articles you have never heard of (unless I'm way wrong). But if you are serious about such things as physics and engineering and evidence and truth, most of the items on this list will appeal to you (I would think).
Three Years Later: Another Look At Three Claims from UL
Sunday, 23 September 2007 2:15 P GMT-05
In conclusion, there is no question that Underwriters Laboratories was the central player in providing fire-resistance information for the WTC towers. This glaring fact, along with UL’s evasive and misleading behavior, indicates that discovering the details about those original tests could go a long way toward ending the debate about how the towers fell. Alternatively, continued evasion and deception by Underwriters Laboratories provides yet another reason why the fire-induced “collapse” hypothesis for the WTC towers is completely unbelievable.
Black Ops -- Conspiracy and 9/11
Sunday, 23 September 2007 2:06 P GMT-05
The continuing drumbeat of speculation that 9/11 may have been a U.S. government "black ops" mission, a charge coming from what seems to be a respectable minority of seemingly informed observers, tells us much about the sad condition of the American polity. I am inclined to think that none of us can possibly have enough information to know the full truth about 9/11. We will not have such information for years, very possibly never. Why, we still don’t know the full truth about the Lincoln and Kennedy assassinations. In my always humble opinion, the incompetence demonstrated by our rulers before, during, and after 9/11 would be alone enough to bring down any government, without the need for revelations of complicity – if we had a responsible democratic regime.

New Video Shows That Demolitions Are Sometimes Top-Down
Saturday, 22 September 2007 2:48 P GMT-05
One of the main arguments defenders of the official story have made against the controlled demolition of the Twin Towers is that demolitions never start at the top of the building. In other words, they claim that demolitions always start at the bottom and proceed upwards. However, a a new video shows an example of a top-down demolition of another building. Moreover, there were numerous reports of huge explosions in the basement and other locations well below the collapse zones in the Twin Towers. For example, a stationary engineer who worked in the basement of one of the towers testified that an entire below-level garage and a 50-ton hydraulic press were demolished long before the tower collapsed. Therefore, the demolition of the Twin Towers was, arguably, not that dissimilar from the video of many demolitions -- such as Seattle's King Dome -- where explosions and squibs are seen at the bottom of the building before the top comes down.
Alaska - 9/11/07 Truth Action
Sunday, 16 September 2007 2:40 P GMT-05
My brother, also known as videohoax, his girlfriend Laurie and I couldn't sit back on the anniversary of 9/11. Even though we are on vacation here in Alaska, we had to take action in the streets. Along with putting up signs all over Fairbanks, we went to the University of Alaska armed with DVDs, fliers and signs to talk to students and teachers about 9/11 truth. We opened a lot of minds and exposed the population here to our movement (I think maybe it was a first). Got very few negative reactions and for the most part people seemed interested in the information. The highlight of the day was a teacher thanking us for what we were doing and asking if she could join or donate to the organization. On a side note, people up here are extremely aware politically. We have been seeing a plethora of Ron Paul bumper stickers and signs! Keep up the great work everyone!
9/11 explains the impotence of the antiwar movement
Sunday, 16 September 2007 12:45 P GMT-05
Even in the official account, the story is one of massive failures: the failures of US intelligence services, the failures of airport security, the failures to intercept the hijacked airliners, the failures to preserve evidence. If a common front had taken the Bush administration to task both for failing to prevent the 9/11 attacks and for an explanation of 9/11 so inadequate that its plausibility depends on outside experts, Bush could not have so easily shifted the blame to Afghanistan and Iraq. Most 9/11 doubters do not insist on the US government’s complicity in the deed. Failure to protect, or incompetence, is a sufficient charge to deter an administration from war by turning it against itself with demands for accountability. But no one was held accountable for 9/11 except Muslim countries. This is the reason the antiwar movement is impotent.
9/11 Commission Report leaves much unanswered 3 years later
Sunday, 16 September 2007 12:10 P GMT-05
The National Commission on Terrorist Attacks upon the United States was founded. The Commission set out to “provide the fullest possible account of the events surrounding 9/11.” It sought “to be independent, impartial, thorough, and non-partisan.”
The Final Report of the Commission came out in July 2004. It concluded that the attacks were able to succeed because of “deep institutional failings,” especially since “no one was firmly in charge.” Not a single person was identified as being responsible, even in part, for this colossal break-down in intelligence. To many, the story as laid out in the report made sense. It was plausible that Arab fanatics hated the US so much that they dreamed up a plan to hijack four jets and fly them into symbolic targets and cause mass devastation. The Commission Report was initially accepted by most media in North America, and by the majority of the American and Canadian population, as being the definitive account of who perpetrated these attacks and how.
The report was right away adopted as the official story. It stuck around for a long time. However, a poll conducted in the US by Zogby in May 2006 found that 42% believed that “the US government and its 9/11 Commission concealed…critical evidence that contradicts their official explanation of the September 11th attacks.” An October 2006 Angus Reid / New York Times and CBS News poll of Americans found that 53% believed that members of the Bush Administration were hiding something.

CNN: Mystery 9/11 aircraft was military 'doomsday plane'
Saturday, 15 September 2007 11:39 P GMT-05
9/11 Commission co-chair Lee Hamilton told CNN he was aware of the incident and that it had simply never seemed important enough to make it into the commission's report. He called conspiracy theories involving government complicity in 9/11 "ludicrous." The plane was previously identified as the E-4B a year ago by one researcher on a forum associated with the 9/11 conspiracy film, Loose Change. CNN acknowledges that, despite its identification, the absence of the aircraft from official investigations, together with the Pentagon's denial that it was a military plane and the insistence by the Pentagon, Secret Service, and FAA that they have no explanation for the incident, may continue to raise suspicions. The following video is from CNN's Anderson Cooper 360, broadcast on September 12.
Peter Tatchell: '9/11 -- The Big Cover-Up?'
Saturday, 15 September 2007 7:17 P GMT-05
I do not believe in conspiracy theories. I prefer rigorous, evidence-based analysis that sifts through the known facts and utilises expert opinion to draw conclusions that stand up to critical scrutiny. In other words, I believe in everything the 9/11 Commission was not. The failings of the official investigation have fuelled too many half-baked conspiracy theories. Some of the 9/11 "truth" groups promote speculative hypotheses, ignore innocent explanations, cite non-expert sources and jump to conclusions that are not proven by the known facts. They convert mere coincidence and circumstantial evidence into cast-iron proof. This is no way to debunk the obfuscations and evasions of the 9/11 report. But even amid the hype, some of these 9/11 groups raise valid and important questions that were never even considered, let alone answered, by the official investigation. The American public has not been told the complete truth about the events of that fateful autumn morning six years ago.
Bad Science: Keith Seffen And The WTC 'Collapse'

If the paper is eventually published, and if it proves that "in all senses, the collapse sequence was quite ordinary and natural", then I will tip my frozen cap to the paper, and to its author, and I will encourage the world to do the same. But if it doesn't, then the world and I will have no choice but to consider Keith Seffen a willing accomplice, an accessory-after-the-fact in a most despicable case of mass murder.

WWE issued the following press release today: STAMFORD , Conn. , September 13, 2007 R11; World Wrestling Entertainment® has signed on as a sponsor of former Giants defensive end George Martin’s “Journey for 9/11.” Beginning this Sunday, September 16, Martin will be walking from New York City to San Francisco to raise awareness and money for rescue workers experiencing health issues related to the their heroic work at ground zero in the aftermath of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001.
Storytelling is the Key to 9/11 Truth
Saturday, 15 September 2007 4:12 P GMT-05
We all have to learn how to become better storytellers (and at the same time, we have stick to only the most credible facts). Only if we do that will we win the battle for 9/11 truth and justice.
Successful 9/11 Truth Event in Bloomington, Indiana
Saturday, 15 September 2007 12:22 A GMT-05
We had a very successful event here in Bloomington, Indiana this week. The full theater audience of 600 stayed for over three hours without a break to hear outstanding presentations by Richard Gage and Steven Jones, and gave a standing ovation at the end. The event attracted three city council representatives, and our city council president gave the introduction. A number of architects, scientists and other professionals were in attendance.
Dawdler in chief: The suspicious behavior of George W. Bush during the 9/11 attacks
Friday, 14 September 2007 1:29 A GMT-05
But as the series of events described in this article adequately shows, for more than an hour, while the attacks of 9/11 unfolded, the president's behavior was odd, out of character, and very suspicious. During the most important 90 minutes of his life, when his usual obsessive punctuality could have been an asset, Bush suddenly became a dawdler.
Meigs & Fox News Attempt To Rescue Flagging Official Story On 9/11 Anniversary
Wednesday, 12 September 2007 5:17 A GMT-05
Fox News introduced their 9/11 anniversary coverage today by promising science would reveal the truth behind 9/11 myths peddled by conspiracy theorists, so their choice to have James Meigs, whose scientific credentials include being a former editor of Entertainment Weekly and Video Review, attempt to debunk those myths was odd to say the least.

"We have medals of freedom and promotions. We had accolades and a couple of years later we had Katrina. I am more baffled today than I was six years ago. I am more suspicious and I am less inclined to believe." So today, bless the thousands of victims, the fighting men and women who have perished, but also give thanks for Monica Gabrielle, who is still outraged.
America's Number One Collapse Expert Thought WTC Bombed
Tuesday, 11 September 2007 1:30 A GMT-05
A man described as "the premiere collapse expert in the country" thought the collapse of the south tower of the WTC was caused by explosives and not jet fuel, before the implosion of the north tower killed him on 9/11. Deputy Chief Ray Downey, the head of the FDNY's Special Operations Command, was also described by colleagues as "the most knowledgeable person on building collapses there was," and 9/11 Commissioner Timothy Roemer referred to Downey as a "very, very respected expert on building collapse."

Progressive sites in denial and funding drives - a possible tactic
Wednesday, 5 September 2007 11:12 A GMT-05
I subscribe to a few sites that routinely ask for money. Others post the appeals on their sites. I can't help fund them all, and have decided to help only those supportive of 9/11 Truth, which is not very many of the general progressive and anti-war sites. Others have suggested reasons for this denial, and I won't repeat the material. Today, I sent the following reply (below) to a site owner. I don't know if this will be effective, or counter productive, but obviously I hope that it will be the former.

The Wicked Eunuch: Chomsky on 9/11
Saturday, 1 September 2007 8:48 P GMT-05
Not giving the slightest indication that he’s bothered to consider the scholarly treatments on the matter by Ahmed or Griffin or dissents from the official narrative of the attacks by those who’ve actually worked within the military/industrial establishment, Chomsky arbitrarily limits the list of suspects to the “Bush administration.” In offering his personal assurance that an official conspiracy is “extremely unlikely,” he states, “for one thing they would have had to have been insane to try anything like that… If they had, it’s almost certain it would have leaked.” In hastening to assure us of the administration’s sanity Chomsky simply ignores revelations from a number of government personnel that strongly indicate official complicity in the attacks, such as that provided by (among others) Robert Wright and Colleen Rowley (both at the time of the FBI), as well as then-Counsel for the US House of Representatives David Schippers, who reports that a dozen FBI agents approached him five weeks before 9/11 with detailed and specific information regarding the impending terror attacks which, according to Schippers, the agents claimed they were being thwarted from preventing by superiors who’d threatened them with reprimand and prosecution under the National Security Act should they pursue their investigations further. If the extensive and damning testimonials of these figures does not comprise the sort of “leaks” to which Mr. Chomsky refers, it’s difficult to imagine what would. Yet heedless of them, the professor yammers on, “You know it’s a very poor system, secrets are hard to keep.”
Did Cindy Sheehan Sign a Petition Later Altered?
Saturday, 1 September 2007 8:14 P GMT-05
Each of us were approached during the rally at the Kennebunkport event on August 25, 2007, to sign a statement calling for the immediate impeachment of Vice President Dick Cheney. Since then, the statement has been altered and posted on the internet, making it appear as if we have evidence that this administration will carry out a "false-flag terror operation." None of us have such evidence, and therefore, none of us signed a statement stating that we do.

The History Channel takes on 9/11…and fails
Saturday, 1 September 2007 7:59 P GMT-05
The final most striking failure in the program is the absence of mention given to the many omissions, distortions, and outright lies contained in the 9/11 Commission Report, as well as the inclusion of one of the program’s own creation. In a footnote on page 541 of the “Report,” reference is made to the fact that the core of the twin towers were “hollow shafts.” This statement is as blatant a lie as can be told, as any picture of the towers’ construction shows clearly the 47 steel columns that allowed the buildings the stability to achieve their height. A similar striking falsehood now finds space in reference to WTC 7, which on the program loses its 16 steel columns and becomes as hollow as the 9/11 Commission would have the twin towers.
NORAD: Live and Uncut

In August, 2006, Michael Bronner, a writer for Vanity Fair Magazine,
received 30 hours of audiotape from the Northeast Air Defense Sector
that chronicled their response on 9/11. Mr. Bronner released 10 minutes of audio from them in MP3 format. In August, 2007, we received 120 hours of audiotape, and are proud to release them in their entirety to the public.
History Channel, 9/11 Conspiracies Suicide-Swipe
Thursday, 30 August 2007 9:19 A GMT-05
Oops, they did it again. They did it right in the middle of the road at high noon where the whole world could see every blemish on their big, fat, lying asses. Most of you would have to be at least as stupid as they think you are not to be made uncomfortable by such a poorly executed farce. This was overkill to the max. This was absurdity at a level never seen before and it will stand as compelling evidence of near smoking gun proof that the official version of what happened on 9/11 is a lie.
Muddying the Waters
Thursday, 30 August 2007 6:56 A GMT-05
For that is the fate of past events, to be lost in time and replaced by the stories we tell about them. Since ancient times the power elite has relied on the short memories of people to erase the wrongdoing of leaders. Even now, humanity is collectively forgetting the lessons learned by the Holocaust. What was it we learned from that again? Oh yeah, something about, um, don't be a Jew, or something. People have short memories, and that usually means that history that isn't taught will be forgotten, and meanwhile any outrageous lies that are taught as history will be remembered. Today our beliefs about the past are a tangled web of lies and half-truths indistinguishable from genuine historical events. But in centuries to come, that may no longer be the case.
The Puzzling Suspension of Incredulity to the "Official" 9-11 Theory
Thursday, 30 August 2007 6:53 A GMT-05
Pontrello challenges adherents of the “official” 9-11 theory: "Try this: the next time you walk a big city, gaze up at a massive building and picture a relatively small burning hole near the top of it. Then imagine it burning for an hour on only a few floors and then spontaneously pulverizing into fine dust before your eyes as if on cue. It took a few times for me to de-program my mind from the brainwashing, but once I did, it was liberating. I laugh now when I look at those three towers come down like that, and listen to the official story defenders try to explain pancake collapse as the explanation."
History Channel - 9/11 Conspiracies, Fact or Fiction? A Review
Thursday, 30 August 2007 6:08 A GMT-05
In the final analysis, “9/11 Conspiracies, Fact or Fiction?” is so bad that it will actually help the 9/11 Truth movement. This is because the documentary is so obviously condescending to the intelligence of the viewer, and brings up so many questions that it might lead some to actually research the facts—questioning the “fictions” supplied by The History Channel and Popular Mechanics.
Robert Fisk's Skepticism vs. Manuel Garcia Jr.s Shameless Propaganda
Wednesday, 29 August 2007 10:16 A GMT-05
In closing, I strongly disagree with both Garcia and Fisk's overall conclusions about who was responsible for 9/11. Fisk doesn't believe the US government could have been responsible in any way because of their (non-sequitur) alleged incompetence in the Middle East. I find that reasoning specious, and ignorant of numerous facts that do point a finger at high level US operatives (Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, Ashcroft, Tenet, FBI and CIA supervisors), among others. Maybe there's hope for Fisk to open his eyes, now that he has acknowledged the cover-up. The first step is acknowledging that there is a problem.
911truth.org lists, and calls for, 9/11/07 activism
Tuesday, 28 August 2007 11:08 A GMT-05
As we approach the sixth anniversary of 9/11, a wide variety of events and actions are being planned by 9/11 truth activists worldwide (click the banner link). 911Truth.org has compiled a list of all of these, to be updated as more information is submitted. We encourage everyone to participate in and promote these plans by posting this banner link (or the one to the right in our Upcoming Events block) to your own sites, and include the URL in email signatures. With the Zogby results from last year showing 70 million Americans distrust the official story about 9/11, results of a brand new national poll to be released shortly, and the cross-issue coalitions coming to fruition lately, we know the numbers of people looking for this information will be even higher this year. It's important to remind ourselves, and others, that we are NOT the disempowered "fringe element minority" media would have us believe. We are millions and millions of patriotic, thinking, aware Americans and citizens of countries worldwide. Standing together on 9/11/07 is an important opportunity to recognize and build on our own strength, commitment, and power. Thanks for helping with that.
Thunder Bay, Ontario's only daily newspaper covers 9/11 truth & upcoming Barry Zwicker speech at Lakehead University
Tuesday, 28 August 2007 8:27 A GMT-05
Is there something more to 9/11 than the official version? Did the Bush administration have anything to do with the attacks on the World Trade Center? That‘s one of the theories Canadian author and left wing peace and environmental activist Barrie Zwicker will discuss during a lecture at Lakehead University on Sept. 7.
6th Anniversary First Responders Benefit and Rally Flyer for Immediate Distribution
Tuesday, 28 August 2007 8:23 A GMT-05
Many more lives have been claimed since 9/11 due to the failure of the federal, state, and local governments to offer adequate respiratory protection to rescue workers during the cleanup at Ground Zero. Now with 6 years hindsight we can see the EPA declaration that, “the air is safe to breathe” only 7 days after that tragic day sealed the fate of thousands of rescue workers. Horrible enough is the above however what makes it intolerable is that fact that firefighters, police officers and paramedics suffering from respiratory conditions consequential of their work at Ground Zero are receiving little to no aid. It is estimated that over 60% of the 9/11 rescue workers are currently afflicted with varying levels of illness from their work at Ground Zero. To date no one has been held liable for the death sentence given to these heroic men and women. The Federal Government has refused to answer over 70% of the victims family members’ questions under the auspices of the 9/11 Commission Report. We must seek justice and accountability for the crimes which have occurred on and since 9/11. Please join us on 9/9/07 to raise needed funds for our dying heroes and to seek justice and accountability on 9/11/07 at a mass gathering at Ground Zero.
University of Massachusetts Professor Calls for New 9/11 Investigation
Tuesday, 28 August 2007 1:14 A GMT-05
The 9/11 tragedy is the most successful and most perverse publicity stunt in the history of public relations. I arrive at this conclusion largely as the result of the research and clear writing by David Ray Griffin in his fabulous books about 9/11. I first met him when he was a speaker at a scholarly conference unrelated to 9/11. He immediately impressed me as a brilliant, outstanding philosopher - theologian - author, a Whiteheadian scholar motivated by an intense curiosity to know everything possible about the world. On the plane home and for the next two days I did little else but read Griffin’s first book about 9/11, The New Pearl Harbor. From there I went on to read his even more disturbing account of the bogus 9/11 Commission Report, The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions and Distortions, which provides overwhelming evidence that the official story is contradictory, incomplete, and unbelievable.
Where Fisk Goes Wrong About 9/11
Sunday, 26 August 2007 11:20 P GMT-05
In any case, if he can ever bring himself to think clearly about these three crucial points, Robert Fisk might someday begin to understand what happened on 9/11. And that would be a very good thing, because at the moment he sounds like a nutter.
Family Security Matters Advocates Bush become "President-for-Life"
Sunday, 26 August 2007 6:28 P GMT-05
While many would reject the idea of Bush as permanent dictator as offensive, unlikely, and absurd, this article echoes a document signed by President Bush himself, which would theoretically give him a dictatorship in the aftermath of a “Catastrophic Emergency”. The National Security and Homeland Security Presidential Directive signed on May 9, 2007 reads: “’Catastrophic Emergency’ means any incident, regardless of location, that results in extraordinary levels of mass casualties, damage, or disruption severely affecting the U.S. population, infrastructure, environment, economy, or government functions… The President shall lead the activities of the Federal Government.”
Open Letter To Robert Fisk
Sunday, 26 August 2007 5:53 P GMT-05
Finally Mr. Fisk, are you prepared to take the next step by showing real support for the 9/11 Truth Movement and addressing the real issues? If so, you will have to be prepared to lose some of your current privileges. You may have to quit your job. You may have to face the scorn of your colleagues and the wrath of trained attack-dogs such as George Monbiot, who will surely write an article insinuating you have lost your marbles and need to be "retired"? Are you prepared to be marginalised and ignored by the all the press except for these scathing attacks? This is what you must face.
Laurie Manwell publishes "Part II" (overcoming psychological barriers to 9/11 Truth) in the Journal of 9/11 Studies
Sunday, 26 August 2007 2:37 P GMT-05
"In sum, the article is a cornucopia of thought and discussion and covers very cogently most of the many issues and concerns we face. I thought it coherent and well-presented, that it is very logical with points following each other in a sensible manner. But, as importantly, in a very revealing manner from which I learned a great deal. Thanks for the compassion and effort.”
Who is Davin Coburn and why is he an "expert" on 9/11?
Saturday, 25 August 2007 12:27 A GMT-05
I decided to look into one of the "experts," Davin Coburn of Popular Mechanics, and I found out that his expertise on 9/11 came from writing high school sports stories at a newspaper in Pennsylvania a little more than three years ago.

"You got shortchanged on this History Channel program...."
Tuesday, 21 August 2007 11:20 P GMT-05
And yes, I EMPHATICALLY told them about the dust -- the iron-rich microspheres especially, and the molten metal beneath the rubble of the Towers and flowing out the South Tower just before it collapsed. And the many fine, peer-reviewed articles in the Journal of 9/11 Studies. Somehow all those points were missed by these guys... as they hit on the "softer" areas of 9/11 research -- flight 93 (shot down..), missile hitting the Pentagon? and so on... You said it -- I, we -- were short-changed -- out of two hours, scientists and engineers from the 9/11 Truth community were given just a couple of sentences. I would like to see the scientists and engineers who have contributed mightily to the 9/11 truth movement given more time on-air. Kevin Ryan, Richard Gage, Tony Szamboti, Jim Hoffman, Gordon Ross, Cate Jenkins, Greg Jenkins, Kenneth Kuttler, Crockett Grabbe, David Griscom -- I could go on. NONE of these scientists and engineers for 9/11 truth were interviewed or at least none of them were given time. A couple of sentences in two hours of stuff...
Webster Tarpley: "When a Knock is a Boost"
Tuesday, 21 August 2007 11:13 P GMT-05
Part of the genius of the 9/11 truth movement is our ability to make even the financier-controlled media spread our ideas and work for us. Despite the worst intentions of NBC News, I would say that this is what they have accomplished. They have kept 9/11 truth research in the public eye. There is an old Broadway saying – “A knock is a boost.” In other words, if we are so obscure and so crazy, why do we merit any attention at all? Two-hour documentaries are not cheap and need to get some ratings. Clearly we are not so obscure as NBC News would have us believe. In fact, if we can hold off the new 9/11 for a few more months, 2007 may turn out to be our finest hour.
Ground Zero Building Catches Fire, Doesn't Collapse
Sunday, 19 August 2007 4:22 P GMT-05
The 40 story Deutsche Bank building next to the ground zero site in New York, where the world trade center once stood, caught fire yesterday and burned intensely for seven hours without collapsing. This represents another modern day miracle in light of the commonly accepted premise that since 9/11, all steel buildings that suffer limited fire damage implode within two hours. This building had even suffered structural damage on 9/11 and had been partially dismantled.
9/11 - US Complicity: Implausible, or Very Probable?
Sunday, 19 August 2007 3:47 P GMT-05
If you are going to deny the findings of the independent 9/11 research community then it is incumbent upon you to provide a detailed and verifiable counter argument. If you can not do this you are basically living in denial and even worse you might be supporting the very people who committed or permitted the atrocities of September 11th 2001. Don’t you think you owe it to yourself, to the victims of the event and to your nation to start taking a closer look at the events of 9/11 and at the people responsible for preventing it?
911truth.org exclusive: Peter Dale Scott: "JFK, Watergate, 9/11: Recurring Patterns in America's Deep Events"
Sunday, 19 August 2007 12:28 P GMT-05
In American history there are two types of event: ordinary events which the information systems of the country can understand and establish. There are also deep events, or meta-events, which the mainstream information systems of the country cannot digest. I mean by a “deep event” an event in which it is clear from the outset that there are aspects which will not be dealt with in the mainstream media, and will be studied only by those so-called “conspiracy theorists” who specialize in deep history.
Point by Point Rebuttal to Globe and Mail Hit Piece
Sunday, 19 August 2007 12:20 P GMT-05
In a fitting and prototypical example of the conversive thinking that runs epidemic among our hysterized society, Ivor Tossell of the Globe and Mail demonstrates in a recent article the very fuzzy thinking he attempts to deride. If it wasn't so sad, and so pitiful a look into the lengths to which a seemingly healthy mind will go to hang onto a belief system, it would be humorous. For Tossell, in his article, accuses others of the very things he himself epitomizes, as will be shown in my comments below.
Was 9/11 an Inside Job? Debate Tonight, Sat. 8/18/07 on Truth Jihad Radio
Sunday, 19 August 2007 1:32 A GMT-05
I finally found someone who doesn't think 9/11 was an inside job, and who has the guts to defend his opinions in a public debate! John Brown, a patriotic member of the Special Forces community who disagrees with my argument that 9/11 was an inside job, has become my first opponent with the guts to debate the issue on the air. This comes as a relief, since I have long been frustrated by the "silence of the cowards." I have offered to debate a long list of gutless wonders who have publicly insulted me but chickened out of debate proposals, including Wisconsin Rep. Steve Nass, Wisconsin governor Jim Doyle, Republican gubernatorial candidate Mark Green, chatter-blogger Ann Althouse, Progressive publisher Matt Rothschild, NIST report quasi-supporter Dr. Frank Greening, vacillating free speech advocate Professor Donald Downs http://mujca.com/academicfreedom.htm and boorish, clueless University of Wisconsin physicist Dr. Orwellian: http://www.mujca.com/fruitcake.htm -- not to mention O'Reilly and Hannity, who snuck away from my FOX appearances licking their wounds and now refuse to return my phone calls ; )
Dutch Police State Cracks Down On 9/11 Activism
Sunday, 19 August 2007 1:28 A GMT-05
We set up in the early afternoon with bright yellow t-shirts carrying slogans such as "9/11 = INSIDE JOB" and "HERONDERZOEK 9/11" ("REINVESTIGATE 9/11"), with a sign of 4 standard size sheets of paper (A4/Letter) stapled together reading "9/11 TRUTH NOW", and with a bag full of homemade 9/11 flyers reading in Dutch or English. About 10 minutes after starting, we were confronted by 3 police officers and told to shut down our "demonstration" immediately. They said that they had seen us on the cameras and came out to stop us due to "anonymous" complaints. We calmly explained that all we were doing was standing somewhere and allowing interested people to come ask us what we were doing, rather than shouting or passing a flyer into every hand we could. The law, according to these officers, is that we needed a permit. The officers insisted that - for our safety - we left the streets. The question of course is, safety from whom?
"KILL EVERYBODY" - AMERICAN SOLDIER EXPOSES US POLICY IN IRAQ
Saturday, 18 August 2007 4:41 P GMT-05
"... And I go, “Well, you know what, I think it’s come out that, you know, these people had nothing to do with 9/11, there was no Iraqi on those planes. We can see around here there’s no Al Qaida, there’s no terrorist syndicates in Baghdad, or Iraq. Saddam had stamped ‘em out.” And I asked my buddies, “Well, you know, we’re here to find ‘weapons of mass destruction’.” And they laughed at me. And I said, “Well, you know, we’re here to ‘help the people.’” And they laughed at me. And I said, “What’s our mission? What’s our goal?”…They’re like, “All we’re trying to do is make it home alive…” Anderson describes the escalation of violence against unarmed civilians: “In April, they told us, “In a crowded area, if one person shoots at you, kill everybody.” Anderson explains the rationale from the officers, “They [members of the crowd of people] are letting them [the person or persons firing at the U.S. military] attack you. They’re no longer innocent if they’re there at the time of the crime…”

From the grave: "I am the victim of the lies of my government" | 911Blogger.com
Friday, 17 August 2007 4:59 A GMT-05
I strongly believe my cancer is related to exposure to World Trade Center dust and smoke. If the government had said we’re not sure about the safety of the air and it would be prudent for residents to stay away, I don’t think I would have this cancer. Now I will not see my beautiful boys grow up. No high school or college graduations, school trips, summer vacations, no weddings, no grandchildren. Mom won’t be there to cheer at piano recitals or ballgames. Mom won’t be there to comfort them after a hard day or a bad dream. I won’t grow old with my beloved husband, who has cared for all of us with remarkable strength. We have had almost 30 fabulous years together. I was hoping for 50 or 60.
White House Ally & Ex-CIA Director Hints At Iraq War & Occupation 1 Day After 9/11
Friday, 17 August 2007 4:29 A GMT-05
Former CIA director and 'Project For A New American Century' member James Woolsey suggests a war with and occupation of Iraq within 24 hours of the 9/11 attacks. The 'Project For A New American Century' one year earlier had cited the need for 'a new Pearl Harbor' in order to implement the growth of the U.S. military and its eventual penetration into the oil rich middle east.

But every person who knows Valenti's story can no longer turn a blind eye or deaf ear. Valenti dug through the World Trade Center rubble due to his respect for human life...and now, it seems as though nobody in power respects his.

William Rodriguez drew a sellout crowd of about 350 to the St. Mark's Presbyterian Church in Tucson last night.
China's Tallest Building Catches Fire, Does Not Collapse
Thursday, 16 August 2007 10:56 A GMT-05
Hundreds of buildings worldwide suffered major fires that gutted the entire facade of their structure before 9/11 and did not collapse, but since the twin towers behaved differently, rather than consider an alternative explanation for the collapse of the towers, experts simply decided to reverse the fundamental precepts of all known physics to make it easier for everyone to understand.

Letter: David Ray Griffin to 9/9 Brussels Truth March
Wednesday, 15 August 2007 10:56 A GMT-05
The other big development has been the growth of 9/11 activism in
Europe. I have come to believe that if the truth is ever to be
exposed, Europe will probably need to lead the way. Awareness appears
to be spreading far and wide. This United for Truth March---the first
of its kind in Brussels, I understand---is testimony to this growing
awareness. But we still have a long road ahead of us. Therefore it is important
that you all keep working to force politicians around the globe,
especially the European Parliament in Brussels, to demand a genuine
inquiry into 9/11. A genuine investigation is all that it will take
for the truth to come out, because once people get empirical about
9/11, they quickly see what you have all come to see: that the
evidence that 9/11 was an inside job is obvious.
We Need To Counter Those Pushing for A False Flag Attack
Wednesday, 15 August 2007 10:51 A GMT-05
What is the proper response to the corporate media supporting the idea that a "new 9/11" would be good for America? If the talking heads are calling for such an attack, that may be just the tip of the iceberg, the surface manifestation of a planning process which is alot bigger, involves some heavyweight military and political types, and is largely unseen. What can we do?
London Parliament Demo
Tuesday, 14 August 2007 10:50 A GMT-05
Here are some pics from our 11 August Demonstration outside Parliament in London. Due to the legislation from 2005(SOCPA – Serious Organised Crime and Protection Act) all demonstrators had to apply for a lone demonstration license from the police. To remain within the law we therefore all had to demonstrate on different topics to all be lone demonstrators. It was a lovely day in London and the response we received was great, over 300 DVD’s given out and many fact sheets. This is the third action we’ve taken on the 11th and was definitely the most successful. We will now hit the streets every Saturday as a result. We will have a video of the action on youtube soon.

Cindy Sheehan To Appear With 9/11 Hero William Rodriguez This Friday!
Tuesday, 14 August 2007 1:05 A GMT-05
Declared a hero for saving numerous lives at Ground Zero, he was the janitor on duty the morning of 9/11 who heard and felt explosions rock the basement sub-levels of the north tower just seconds before the jetliner struck the top floors. His testimony, which was omitted from the 9/11 Commission, absolutely destroys the government’s official story because it means that explosives must have been placed in the buildings. Several eyewitnesses who were on the scene also claim they heard multiple explosions before the buildings collapsed.
Giuliani: I Misspoke About Ground Zero
Saturday, 11 August 2007 5:21 P GMT-05
Republican presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani said Friday that he misspoke when he said he spent as much time, if not more, at ground zero exposed to the same health risks as workers combing the site after the Sept. 11 attacks.
A Review of David Ray Griffin's "Debunking 9/11 Debunking"
Saturday, 11 August 2007 5:13 P GMT-05
I've been toying for awhile about what kind of review to write. If I give an in-depth review of the content for each chapter of this book, the review will be so long people won't want to read it! Several other in-depth reviews have focused on the problems with the NORAD tapes. So I will focus primarily on the Popular Mechanics chapter, since PM is most often cited as the knockout punch which refutes all the movement's claims.
9/11 workers outraged by new Rudy claim
Saturday, 11 August 2007 4:55 P GMT-05
"This is not a mayor or a governor or a President who's sitting in an ivory tower," Giuliani said. "I was at Ground Zero as often, if not more, than most of the workers. I was there working with them. I was exposed to exactly the same things they were exposed to. So in that sense, I'm one of them." His statement rang false to Queens paramedic Marvin Bethea, who said he suffered a stroke, posttraumatic stress disorder and breathing problems after responding to the attacks. "I personally find that very, very insulting," he said. "Standing there doing a photo-op and telling the men, 'You're doing a good job,' I don't consider that to be working," said Bethea, 47.
Firefighter Speaks out About 9/11

Firefighter John Schroeder, assigned to Engine Company 10 directly across the street from the World Trade Center complex, holds back tears and describes his first-hand experience on Sept. 11th. His story directly contradicts many aspects of the National Commission on Terrorist attacks any corroborates many other eyewitnesses testimony.
New Details About The 9/11 Mystery Plane
Thursday, 9 August 2007 12:21 A GMT-05
The morning of 9/11, CNN reported a mystery jet plane flying above Washington, DC. At 9:54 a.m., correspondent John King, who was standing near the White House, reported that about ten minutes earlier (hence, around 9:44 a.m.), there was "a white jet circling overhead." He added: "Now, you generally don't see planes in the area over the White House. That is restricted air space. No reason to believe that this jet was there for any nefarious purposes, but the Secret Service was very concerned, pointing up at the jet in the sky. It is out of sight now, best we can tell."
Rev. Rich Lang's Bold Call for Action on 9/11/07
Sunday, 5 August 2007 5:17 P GMT-05
This year, for the first time since 2001, 9/11 falls on a Tuesday. Tonight I want to call us to participate in a creative direct action goaled towards naming the demon and therefore awakening our people from their trance. Tonight I want to invite us into a city wide series of direct actions that will put thousands of people into the streets to perform, what might be called a Day of Democracy, but what I would call, a public exorcism of the tyranny of fear. Like Jesus, I want to invite us to "unchain" the possessed and let them go free.* Unchain the possessed and help them find their voice.

CNN Omits 9/11 Conspiracy Comments From Video
Saturday, 4 August 2007 10:40 P GMT-05
Why would CNN cut out the 9/11 conspiracy comments? Clearly, they had access to the same footage I did so why did I have to discover this on my own? This looks like a blatant attempt by CNN to make Fred Thompson look bad.
UK: Muslim Man Detained by Police - Harrassment Initiated Due to William Rodriguez Flyer
Saturday, 4 August 2007 5:11 P GMT-05
A Muslim man left his car overnight in a parking garage on July 5, 2007. When he went to go retrieve it on the 6th, he was detained by a phalanx of police, ushered to a van and interrogated. The bomb squad was on the scene, seriously considering detonating his car. They saw a power inverter sitting in the backseat, but what apparently put the situation over the top was that the man had a flyer advertising William Rodriguez's speaking tour sitting beside the inverter in the backseat. The flyer was described to the man as "terrorist literature" by the police during his interrogation.
World Trade Center Movie
Saturday, 4 August 2007 3:51 P GMT-05
I don't know what Oliver Stone or his screenwriters were thinking, but it appears to be a deliberate and lousy attempt to reinforce the "pancake collapse" theory within the context of the film. There is simply no way anyone in their right mind would look at this and say "it went down like a pancake." Most people that day, like news anchors and eyewitnesses, were saying things like "that looks just like a controlled demolition... you know, like when they bring down buildings intentionally with explosives."
Korey Rowe Could Be Sent Back To Iraq
Saturday, 4 August 2007 3:42 P GMT-05
Rowe was grabbed as it was being announced on the Loose Change website that coordinated plans for 9/11 anniversary demonstrations had been finalized, by Rowe himself, and as the final cut of Loose Change is being prepared for release. The fact that he has made several public appearances in the last two years and not been apprehended indicates that there has never been a warrant against his name in the army database. As we highlighted last week, the Army court-martialed just 5% of deserters last year, with that number dropping to just 1 per cent or less for the Navy and the Marines. Rowe had satisfactorily completed his tour of duty and yet was grabbed by police and handed over to military officials on the basis of a tip-off the authorities received.
Greg Palast Takes a Dive in The Midnight Hour
Saturday, 4 August 2007 3:34 P GMT-05
This is my problem. When I set about seeking the truth in a matter, I weigh the evidence. When the evidence turns out to be inconsistent with ‘official’ conclusions that are declared to be the truth then I begin to wonder ‘why’ that is. When the evidence shows signs of warping and having been spun, folded and mutilated and when powerful interests begin to apply pressure for compliance with official explanations then I wonder more. I can’t help wondering why someone insists that 2 + 3 equals 4. I can’t just say, “Okay, you’re probably right.” just to avoid conflict or to protect my income and my personal safety. I’m not made that way and that’s a problem you may be sure.
9th September Rally in Brussels (United for Truth)
Friday, 3 August 2007 11:57 P GMT-05
9/9 UNITED FOR TRUTH will be the first major protest rally in Europe uniting various movements and linking various issues like, poverty, free press, disappearance of democracy, the lack of investigation to the 9/11 - 7/7 - 3/11 attacks, monetary reform, war on terror... Instead of every movement fighting for its own cause, we want to join forces, because all our common subjects can be linked down to just money and therefore capitalism that is defeating democracy. Please join us today.
Pelosi Says "No" to a New 9/11 Investigation, Claims Close Collaboration with Victim's Families on 9/11 Bill Passage
Wednesday, 1 August 2007 2:42 A GMT-05
Just before returning to idle chatter with lapdog supporters, Pelosi dodged a question about Building 7's collapse being left out of the 9/11 Commission Report by cryptically stating, "We'll make sure that nothing else happens."

9/11 doubts becoming mainstream
Tuesday, 31 July 2007 11:40 P GMT-05
Noting that she tends to be about six months ahead of mainstream thinking when she speaks up about things, Cindy Sheehan speaks of her doubts about 9/11 in the context of those in power using another false flag attack to implement martial law.
And Then There Was One, The Final Holdout: 9-11
Tuesday, 31 July 2007 12:44 A GMT-05
The official story of 9/11 has been told by professional, experienced, and successful liars. Think about that as you try to explain the need to believe it. Maybe it will take another 9/11, as we’ve recently been warned may happen very soon, to convince Americans that the most egregious and damaging of all the lies told by the Bush administration must not remain off limits.
New Radio Ad calls for Activism on 9/11/07
Tuesday, 31 July 2007 12:03 A GMT-05
Cheney and Chertoff are warning us of another 9/11 attack in the U.S. this summer. A new false-flag event—a pretext to attack Iran—could plunge America into dictatorship and martial law, and the world into nuclear war. It's time to confront the cancer of deception and corruption within our government, and to stop the ruthless war machine. A tidal wave of truth seekers is rising in America—united by purpose, not politics—that will descend on New York City and Washington DC, and throughout the country on September 11th, to honor the victims of 9/11 and of the wars that followed. Join the new revolution—before it's too late!

Action: Preempt the coup before it happens
Sunday, 22 July 2007 5:38 P GMT-05
Whereas history presents numerous examples of governments manufacturing incidents to further agendas of war and expanded executive power; We call upon the United States Congress and the governments of the fifty states, in the name of their constituents, to advise the administration that any terrorist incident within the United States will be promptly, fully, and independently investigated, with the constitutional system of checks-and-balances and states rights remaining fully in force; and further urge the repeal of the provisions of the 2006 Defense Appropriations Act which enable the President to deploy United States forces anywhere in the country for domestic policing purposes without the consent of state or local authorities; and that the questions persisting around the attacks of September 11, 2001 which the 9/11 Commission left unexamined be made the subject of a full and independent investigation.
Attorney For New Black Panther Party: Bush had 9/11 Foreknowledge
Thursday, 19 July 2007 11:04 A GMT-05
Appearing on Fox News' Hannity and Colmes yesterday, Malik Shabazz, the attorney for the New Black Panther Party, reiterated that many 9/11 families are taking action against the government and the FAA for at the very least having foreknowledge of the attacks. Shabazz, also the spokesman for the Black Lawyers For Justice group, appeared as a guest in order to defend Minnesota Democratic Congressman Keith Ellison who compared President Bush to Hitler in a recent speech at an atheists meeting in Minnesota.
McCain Loses It and Flees After 9/11 Truth Questions
Thursday, 19 July 2007 10:52 A GMT-05
McCain, who wrote the forward to Popular Mechanics' Debunking 9/11 Myths, repeatedly told reporters, "I do not support a new investigation" and stated that he believes the "9/11 Commission did a good job." But other reporters continued to hammer the complicit senator with further questions and demands for a new 9/11 investigation. Seemingly frustrated that he could not simply brush off 9/11 truthers, McCain retreated to his SUV where he entertained questions from the mainstream media only.
San Diego 9/11 Questions Meetup Group: Second Confrontation with Congresswoman Susan Davis
Thursday, 19 July 2007 10:13 A GMT-05
At one point she asks how many people in the room believe that the government is lying about what happened on 9/11 and more than half of the people in the room raised their hand. We leave with our answer: NO she would not support impeachment and NO she would not support a new 9/11 investigation.

“We are proud to have the support of Marx Ayres, a nationally recognized expert in building energy systems and earthquake damage to building nonstructural systems, in our search for the truth about the events of 9/11.”, said Mr. Gage. “He has signed our petition requesting a reinvestigation of those tragic events and he has now gone even further by providing his personal statement of support for a new investigation of 9/11.”
Saudi Flights on CIA-Linked Air Charters
Saturday, 14 July 2007 5:36 P GMT-05
Curiously, however, there is no mention of the organized crime connections of air charter owner Zammiello in either the 9/11 Commission Report, which covered the Saudi flights, or in recently-released FBI documents rebutting allegations that bin Laden family members were allowed to leave the U.S. without being interviewed by authorities. The omission is surprising, especially considering Frank Zammiello's relevance to the story of President George W. Bush's amazing claim of executive privilege in early 2002 for all records of the Boston FBI.

3 Days after Corporal Wave called for the court martial of the 'Commander in Chief' and Michele Phillips, Ed Asner and David Ray Griffin called for people to "get off their butts" in support of 9-11 Truth and Justice activism, a strong and geographically-diverse group of activists stormed the Venice Beach Boardwalk. Thousands of flyers and hundreds of DVD's later, many people had been brought information, inspiration and future pathways for action. Groups came from all over the Greater LA metropolitan area, including Redlands and Rancho Cucamonga.

"I definitely think that is a distinct possibility, that there will be some kind of attack whether it's manufactured or real....I think it's really possible that these people will do that - why would he [Bush] put in that presidential directive if he didn't need to use it - I think it's really really frightening," Sheehan told The Alex Jones Show.

Firefighters Burn Down Giuliani's Presidential Bid
Thursday, 12 July 2007 12:26 A GMT-05
In this thirteen minute documentary, fire fighters, fire officers and family members give dramatic testimony about Giuliani's leadership failures. Their dramatic stories tell how Giuliani failed to provide the FDNY with radios that worked, which led to the deaths of 121 fire fighters inside the World Trade Center's North Tower because they were unable to hear orders to evacuate. Fire fighters also point to Giuliani's poor judgment in placing his emergency command center at 7 World Trade Center, a known terrorist target after the 1993 bombing. This video documents the mayor's lack of respect for the fallen when he called off the recovery effort at Ground Zero on Nov. 1, 2001, after $200 million in gold bullion was recovered.
Day After Corporal Wave said "Educate yourself," Ret. Lieut. Col. Ralph Peters claims "Conspiracy theories are for Arabs"- Pt. 1
Thursday, 12 July 2007 12:12 A GMT-05
Peters started by giving me advice: “Never, never blame anything on a conspiracy that can be explained by incompetence.” I don’t. The full spectrum of facts surrounding the attacks of 9-11 and 7-7 cannot be explained by incompetence. If you were to ask a real Colonel, such as Bob Bowman, someone who has wrestled with the profundity of the oath he took, you would know that normal procedures were disrupted and, in some cases, paralyzed on 9-11. If this administration and its mole controllers had purely done nothing on 9-11, thousands of dead people would still be alive. As Mr. Bowman says, “the very kindest thing that we can say about George W. Bush and all the people in the U.S. Government that have been involved in this massive cover-up, the very kindest thing we can say, is that they were aware of impending attacks and let them happen. Now some people will say that’s much too kind, however even that is high treason and conspiracy to commit murder.”

Janette MacKinlay is a WTC survivor, a truth activist and an artist. She provided the dust samples that Professor Steven Jones used to isolate the telltale signatures of thermate. On Truth Revolution Radio, Janette talks about surviving that day, the apparent foreknowledge of the second tower's demolition on the part of police officers in the area and how she slowly came to accept the truth about 9/11.
9/11 Truth Invades Live Earth
Tuesday, 10 July 2007 11:21 P GMT-05
A giant banner that read '9/11 inside job' was on display at this past weekend's Live Earth concert in London, reaching a potential audience of 2 billion people, before the truthers responsible for the wake-up call had the banner stolen, were briefly detained and then told to leave by security. East Anglia Truth (http://www.eastangliatruth.com), a British group who specialize in 9/11 truth activism, chose to turn Al Gore's Wembley Stadium propaganda bandwagon into a showcase for real issues with a huge black banner that also carried the 'Infowars.com' legend. The banner was visible throughout the performance of the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
FDNY Thyroid Cancer Shock
Tuesday, 10 July 2007 12:28 A GMT-05
At least eight firefighters have been diagnosed with thyroid cancer over the past five years. Another five have undergone partial or full thyroidectomies after their doctors discovered abnormal cell growth that could lead to cancer around the glands. The cluster has sprung up among those who responded to the World Trade Center on 9/11 or helped in recovery and cleanup afterward, firefighters said. The relatively rare illness is known to affect women at three times the rate it hits males. The FDNY cases involve only men.
Protest outside of Giuliani's $5,000 a plte luncheon
Tuesday, 10 July 2007 12:17 A GMT-05
Hoping to truthsquad, The San Diego 9/11 Questions Meetup Group went to Giuliani's $5,000 a plate luncheon at a 40 million dollar house last week. It was a success, in that we were able to stand directly outside of the gates for three hours while all of the guests + Rudy's entourage came and left, forced to slow down and read our banners. I am sure it was a hot topic of conversation at the lunch. I hope Rudy is getting this wherever he goes.

The Philadelphia Platform - fusing 9/11 Truth with Anti-War activism
Saturday, 7 July 2007 4:38 P GMT-05
We meet in response to a grave political crisis. We see before us a society careening towards disaster. Bush-Cheney and their Republican allies flout the popular will and are determined to wage endless war, expanded beyond Iraq and Afghanistan to Iran and other countries, including with nuclear weapons. At the same time, they are transforming this country into an authoritarian police state. The Democrats, loyal to their own wealthy backers, ignore the Constitutional imperative of impeaching Bush and Cheney, despite crimes and abuses which cry out for impeachment. Now, the Democratic Party has voted to fund an escalated and expanded version of the very Iraq war they had pledged to end. Their excuse is that they did not have the votes. But they only needed to block the Iraq funding bill – something Pelosi could have done by herself as Speaker of the House. This massive betrayal has thrown the peace movement into disarray. Peace activists had taken seriously the Democrats’ pledge to end the war, and this approach has proven ineffective. In the background there are rumblings of a financial panic set off by the mortgage crisis, and by the ongoing death agony of the US dollar, which increase the hysteria of the ruling circles. The Republican presidential candidates eagerly debate the use of tactical nuclear weapons against Iran – a sure path to World War III – while Giuliani preens himself as a future dictator, and Mrs. Clinton can hardly conceal her enthusiasm for the coming attacks on Iran and Sudan. But the American people deserve something better than a choice between competing Republican and Democratic warmonger elitist cliques. In her farewell message, Cindy Sheehan called on the peace movement to organize independently of the bankrupt two-party system. She also supported a new inquiry into 9/11. The peace movement needs a new strategy, and we are here in Philadelphia because we have taken Cindy Sheehan’s call seriously. We appeal to leftists, progressives, conservatives, libertarians, independents, and those entering or re-entering politics to transcend the artificial divisions that have diminished their impact. The anti-war, impeachment, anti-globalization, labor, civil rights, veterans, anti-tax, civil liberties, honest election, and 9/11 truth movements – along with civic and progressive religious groups and other issue groups -- have been weakened too long by single issues and narrow focus. It is time for these movements to unite as a national coalition on a common platform for independent action. We call for a united front of all organizations and persons of good will based on the following:
Open Letter to Purdue President France Cordova
Saturday, 7 July 2007 7:46 A GMT-05
In any case, it is disturbing that a respected academic institution like Purdue would offer what is essentially a half-baked video game as another explanation for the most important events of the 21st century. It is just as disturbing, although less surprising, that major media sources would uncritically repeat ridiculous assertions by the animation's creators as if they were statements of fact. For example the Associated Press and the New York Times quoted Purdue Computer Science professor Christoph Hoffman when he said "One thing it does point out…is the absolute essential nature of fireproofing steel structures" and "This is something that wasn't originally in the World Trade Center when it was built. It wasn't code at that time." In these articles the reader can't tell if it is the reporters, or just the professors, who are hopelessly confused.[6] Not only were the WTC buildings fully fireproofed, that fireproofing had been dramatically upgraded in the two years prior to 9/11. President Córdova, I ask you to consider Purdue's part in the propagation of false stories behind 9/11 and the devastating damage they are doing to our country and the victims of the 9/11 Wars. As a physicist you must understand that the near free-fall "collapse" of three tall buildings, of which only two were struck by airliners, is the most improbable, and yet politically convenient, series of events that the world has ever seen. Now that we have witnessed multiple false official explanations for these events, many scientists are waking to, and are willing to stand against, this fraud in order to save our country and end these wars of aggression.[7] As the leader of a university that has been thrust into the center of this critical national discussion, you should lead this effort.
9/11 Denial for Dummies
Thursday, 5 July 2007 5:56 A GMT-05
In response to the anonymous commenters below who love to assert that no "experts" have doubts about what happened on 9/11, here's a brief interview with controlled demolition expert Danny Jowenko, featuring his response to the collapse of WTC 7. I would love to hear your responses to it.
Norman Mineta Confirms His Testimony with Members of 911TruthSeattle.org
Thursday, 5 July 2007 5:43 A GMT-05
Mineta is on video testifying before the 9/11 Commission, though it was omitted in their final report. He told Lee Hamilton: “During the time that the airplane was coming into the Pentagon, there was a young man who would come in and say to the Vice President…the plane is 50 miles out…the plane is 30 miles out….and when it got down to the plane is 10 miles out, the young man also said to the vice president “do the orders still stand?” And the Vice President turned and whipped his neck around and said “Of course the orders still stand, have you heard anything to the contrary!?"
The Media Monopoly’s ‘Code of Silence’
Wednesday, 4 July 2007 10:43 P GMT-05
You will discover, after examining these 46 articles and broadcasts, that there is indeed ample evidence that the mainstream media (MSM) is not only complicit in a cover-up of the facts and evidence surrounding the most important event in modern times, but that they are co-conspirators in 9/11 – undoubtedly the greatest crime of all time. I encourage you to examine these articles and make up your own mind.
New study from Pilots for 9/11 Truth: No Boeing 757 hit the Pentagon
Wednesday, 4 July 2007 10:23 P GMT-05
According to the report issued by Pilots for 9/11 Truth (http://pilotsfor911truth.org/), there are major differences between the official account and the flight data: a. The NTSB Flight Path Animation approach path and altitude does not support official events. b. All Altitude data shows the aircraft at least 300 feet too high to have struck the light poles. c. The rate of descent data is in direct conflict with the aircraft being able to impact the light poles and be captured in the Dept of Defense "5 Frames" video of an object traveling nearly parallel with the Pentagon lawn. d. The record of data stops at least one second prior to official impact time. e. If data trends are continued, the aircraft altitude would have been at least 100 feet too high to have hit the Pentagon.
US Social Forum Supports Call for Independent, International Investigation into 9/11
Wednesday, 4 July 2007 8:14 P GMT-05
During June 27th to July 1st, approximately 9,400 people from across the America, and beyond, gathered in Atlanta for the historic, first-ever United States Social Forum. Thanks to donations from some of our generous supporters, 911Truth.org was there, together with about 15 other 911Truth activists from Georgia, California, Massachusetts, North Carolina, Washington DC, and Maryland. We went with the idea we'd work to "convince" people to look at the need for a real investigation into the crimes of 9/11. After all, the various issues and causes represented by this diversity of People were predicated, to such a strong degree, upon the events of 9/11, and it made sense that if presented with the information, we'd win some allies. We were wrong. What we found, instead, was that nearly everyone we spoke with was already aware of at least some questions about 9/11 and agreed with us! The People, in spite of resistance we've heard from many of their organizational "leaders," are already with us.

Former Environmental Protection Agency boss Christie Whitman says she urged Ground Zero workers to wear respirators, but then-Mayor Rudy Giuliani blocked her efforts.

9/11 Wasn't that Hard.
Monday, 2 July 2007 12:48 A GMT-05
What do we do about it, or anything? Like the song says, “let your conscience be your guide.” We’re not here to put an end to every evil and dry every tear. We’re here to do our best and demonstrate the courage of our convictions whether we win or we lose. We are defined by what we think and say and do. Maybe this matters to you and maybe it doesn’t. That’s for you to decide. But whether 9/11 was an Inside Job and whether or not they covered it up and went on a profit binge in the aftermath….? That’s easy, yes, it was. Yes, they did and, yes,... they did. What are you going to do about it?
Two Project Censored judges quit over 9/11 Truth story
Monday, 2 July 2007 12:37 A GMT-05
Judges Robert Jensen, a journalism professor, and Norman Solomon, a syndicated columnist, severed their ties with the national media watchdog group over its decision last year to highlight the controversial theories of physics professor Steven Jones, a critic of the 9/11 Commission findings. Jones hypothesizes that the Sept. 11, 2001, collapse of the World Trade Center towers was the result of controlled detonation of military-grade explosives rather than fires caused by two passenger jets that slammed into the buildings. His views, which are available online at Scholars for 9/11 Truth & Justice (stj911.org), have been largely passed over or dismissed by mainstream news outlets.

Spread the word to your local 9/11 groups, Peace activists and impeachment activists. If you can afford to buy a radio spot, MP3s are available at the Act Independent website for download to promote this event... please do what you can to get the word out!
Kevin Barrett: Liberal news media continue to block debate about 9/11 truth
Friday, 29 June 2007 1:55 A GMT-05
Allegedly liberal newspapers seem to go out of their way to avoid mentioning the debate on 9/11 that is raging in the U.S. (where a poll showed 36 percent of the population suspects an "inside job") and around the world. On June 22 the New York Times ran a laudatory article about Rosie O'Donnell's new uncensored video blog -- without even mentioning the elephant in the living room, Rosie's outspoken support for 9/11 truth. Now that Michael Moore has joined O'Donnell in speaking out for 9/11 truth, and Harper's editor Lewis Lapham has admitted to reading David Griffin's "Debunking 9/11 Debunking," will the media on the left rescind their blackout on our most important national debate since the Civil War?
9/11 Responders Speak Out on Government Failure to Address Environmental, Health Impact of World Trade Center Collapse
Tuesday, 26 June 2007 10:27 A GMT-05
A powerful 31 minute interview with John Feal was recently posted at Google (Louder than Words produced), which offers readers a personal conversation with John. Please help distribute this information and support the FealGood Foundation -- Jon Gold has been particularly instrumenal in raising funds for the Foundation, through his ongoing efforts at 911blogger.com. And Michael Moore's latest movie, "Sicko" (opening in theaters June 29th), brings worldwide attention to these responders. Recently, activists with Louder ThanWords asked Moore his thoughts about 9/11; Moore replied with surprising candor re. his own questions about the official story. That interview is available here.
Flight 77 Black Box Data Shows Major Flaws in the Official Story
Sunday, 24 June 2007 8:59 P GMT-05
Another astonishing discovery is that the data also confirms that the last figure of altitude given was 273 feet above ground level. (The pentagon is 71 feet tall). This is from radio altitude so it’s accurate to within just several feet. The VOR (A data entry figure that is used to determine the distance from an object, in this case a transmitter at the Airport near the Pentagon) gives a last distance of 1.5 miles from F77 to the transmitter. Combine this information with the last figure of given altitude and also with speed of the plane (530 mph) and simply something just doesn’t add up.
Hanging Around WTC 7
Sunday, 24 June 2007 7:36 P GMT-05
The interview has been cut off where they say how they made it to the lobby, but when they did make it down, Mr. Jennings found it destroyed and littered with dead bodies. He said it looked like, "King Kong had came through it and stepped on it, so destroyed, I didn't know where I was. So destroyed that they had to take me out through a hole in the wall, that I believe the fire department made to get me out." Shortly after he made it out, he was seen on several news channels telling his story.
FBI's 9/11 Saudi Flight Documents Released
Sunday, 24 June 2007 4:22 P GMT-05
Newly released documents reveal the FBI suspected that a plane hired to transport members of the bin Laden family from the United States back to Saudi Arabia might have been chartered by Osama bin Laden himself. The documents raise new questions about the FBI investigation into the 9/11 attacks. Truthout reviewed the 224 pages of newly released documents over the past two days. A heavily redacted FBI report on the incident begins by describing a private jet that was hired to pick up members of the bin Laden family that were in the US eight days after the 9/11 attacks. "The plane was chartered either by the Saudi Arabian Royal Family or Osama bin Laden," according to the declassified pages of the FBI investigation titled PENTTBOMB (page 3).

U.S. Government Targetting Sick 9/11 Workers
Sunday, 24 June 2007 2:43 P GMT-05
Moore received a letter in May from the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control stating that he was under investigation for travel violations. The three heroes’ have not received any such letters at present but are expecting them. This is a complete outrage, how can those who are willing to give their lives to save others be treated in such a way by a government which is meant to serve and protect?
New 9/11 Study Has Direct Links To Government, Pentagon Black Ops
Sunday, 24 June 2007 2:23 P GMT-05
A newly released Purdue University animation showing how fire caused the collapse of the World Trade Center towers on 9/11 claims to be independent but in reality has been federally funded and was conducted by individuals with direct links to the Pentagon and the White House.
Dr. Bob Bowman reviews 9/11

Here is Dr. Bob Bowman as he appears on North Bay Report in the San Francisco Bay Area calling for the impeachment of Bush & Cheney for coverinp-up the facts of 9/11 and for lying about our reasons for going to war. He is on a nationwide tour and is currently in Grants Pass Oregon headed to Portland and points north. See his website for his lecture schedule at www.thepatriots.us and www.patriotsquestion911 for his bio and statements on 9/11.
Does 9/11 simulation 'raise more questions than answers?'
Thursday, 21 June 2007 12:34 A GMT-05
Josh Reeves and Mike Swenson write, "The following statement was used in the Purdue simulation: 'The weight of the aircraft's fuel, when ignited, acted like a flash flood of flaming liquid.' This is a direct contradiction of the FEMA report (which can be viewed HERE) which stated: 'despite the huge fireballs caused by the two planes crashing into the WTC towers each with 10,000 gallons of jet fuel, the fireballs did not explode or create a shock wave that would have resulted in structural damage.'"
9/11 Bombshell: WTC7 Security Official Details Explosions Inside Building
Tuesday, 19 June 2007 11:17 P GMT-05
The Alex Jones show today welcomed Loose Change creators Dylan Avery and Jason Burmas to discuss an exclusive interview they have conducted with an individual with high level security clearance who was inside the Office of Emergency Management in World Trade Center 7 and has descibed and detailed explosions inside the building prior to the collapse of any of the buildings at ground zero on 9/11. The interview, to be featured in the forthcoming Final Cut of Loose Change is currently under wraps but the creators have allowed some details to leak purely to protect themselves and the individual involved who has asked to remain anonymous until the film is released.
Open Letters to Greg Palast
Tuesday, 19 June 2007 11:11 P GMT-05
I will respond then to your statements which support the Bush/Cheney or "official story" for 9/11 events, and I will assure that the exchange will be made public. I propose publication of our exchange in the letters section of the Journalof911Studies.com, but you may choose another venue which is open to the public. Be sure to include your explanation of the iron-aluminum-rich microspheres which I discovered in the WTC dust if your explanation differs from mine, as well as the rapid straight-down collapse of WTC 7.
9/11 'Truthers' uncovering disturbing anomalies
Tuesday, 19 June 2007 1:05 A GMT-05
Never mind Islam and Christianity-for a culture clash closer to home, you only have to contrast the marginalized 9/11 conspiracy touted on the Internet to the authorized 9/11 conspiracy advanced by government sources and traditional media. These contending belief systems might as well be from parallel worlds. As a media observer, I have never witnessed a greater cultural divide. It's safe to say that the nonofficial viewpoint is far from fringe, at least in numbers. According to a New York Times/CBS News poll, from October 2006, only 16 per cent of Americans think the government is telling the truth about 9/11 and the intelligence prior to the attacks. A Scripps-Howard poll determined that one in every three Americans believe their government aided or abetted the attacks of 9/11. This signals a profoundly deep cynicism and suspicion among Americans about their own government.
Hotel Bans 9/11 Hero
Tuesday, 19 June 2007 12:07 A GMT-05
The event venue in Peterborough, the Bull Hotel, has been inundated with telephone calls and emails requesting an explanation from annoyed members of the public, as it is completely unacceptable to ban a real hero who saved hundreds of lives during the horrific events of 9/11. Apparently the hotel pulled out following a letter from a member of public stating that they had witnessed a 9/11 truth activist being sworn at and spat upon during promoting the event. One of the event organisers, Ian Barrett, confirms this attack did take place and it does not explain why the hotel pulled out.

How Ronald Reagan Destroyed The Soviet Union With Only Four Words
Thursday, 14 June 2007 12:50 A GMT-05
The Latin phrase "post hoc, ergo proper hoc" translates literally as "after this, therefore because of this". It's a class of logical fallacy, and it's an easy one to spot. Any half-wit can see that it is not always (or even usually) true that because event B followed event A, therefore A caused B. Twenty years ago today, Ronald Reagan made a speech in Berlin, in which he uttered the famous line "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!"

Grassroots Activism Machine, DOWNSIZEDC.ORG, To Tackle 9/11 Truth With New Campaign
Tuesday, 12 June 2007 11:36 P GMT-05
For each and every one of us, there is something in particular that has provided the impetus to look at the events of 9/11 more closely than before. For Jim Babka, of downsizedc.org, the impetus has come in the form of the documentary 9/11: Press For Truth. Please extend a warm welcome to Mr. Babka into the 9/11 Truth movement for recognizing the need and the willingness to now utilize the resources he has created to "Press For Truth.".

Criminal Indictments Sought Against Police, Giuliani Staffers Who Had Reporter Arrested For Asking Question
Thursday, 7 June 2007 3:50 A GMT-05
In addition to the details that were already outlined in our previous article, fellow We Are Change member Luke Rudkowski also related how he was just silently filming the fracas when Giuliani staffers, and in particular one unidentified female, started hitting and attempting to steal his camera, before Lepacek and Rudkowski were pointed out by the staffers and five to seven police arrived to grab them and throw them out of the building. The female staffer was witnessed to be instrumental in alerting the police to the "crime" of Lepacek asking a question that the Giuliani camp weren't comfortable with.
Giuliani does flip-flop on 9/11
Thursday, 7 June 2007 3:28 A GMT-05
Consider this: On Tuesday, members of a 9/11 truth activist group confronted former Mayor Rudy Giuliani at a New York fundraiser about the fall of the World Trade Center. Giuliani’s politely phrased response, caught by WNBC news cameras filming the event, was, “I didn’t know that the towers were going to collapse.” That response contradicts remarks the former New York City mayor made about being warned about the collapse during a phone interview with former ABC anchor Peter Jennings on Sept. 11, 2001, as shown in a transcript WNBC obtained from the Giuliani 2008 campaign.
DR. BAZANT - NIST's 911 FALL GUY
Wednesday, 6 June 2007 1:01 A GMT-05
It is difficult to accept that the twin towers were demolished by means other than the aircraft impact and subsequent fires, especially so when acceptance also means the abandonment of a strongly held belief with which one has become associated. But that is where the growing evidence is inevitably leading. This brief run through of the various facets of the collapse shows that the official story lags a long way behind the current knowledge even when limiting the examination to the mechanical aspects of the collapse. Many other areas of research are throwing up questions for which the official story not only has no answers, but far more importantly, refuses to even acknowledge the questions.
Building Engineer Advised WTC Towers Would Collapse
Tuesday, 5 June 2007 6:33 A GMT-05
In the 2005 book '102 Minutes', page 208 describes an EMT Rich Zarrillo apparently telling an aide of a FDNY chief Peter Ganci at the West street command post, that according to a 'Buildings Department' engineer that the WTC towers were in 'immenent danger of collapse'. The passage also describes chief Ganci's state of disbelief at the information since in his experience, such buildings do not collapse due to fire in under 1 hour.
WTC First Responder Craig Bartmer
Tuesday, 5 June 2007 1:47 A GMT-05
Former NYPD Officer and 9/11 First Responder Craig Bartmer worked on the rescue operation at Ground Zero. He, like many others who worked to clean Ground Zero, has developed respiratory illnesses as a result of the toxic dust inhaled at the site. Also like many others who were physically affected by the attacks, Craig Bartmer is now combating Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. In this interview he details his eyewitness account of the collapse of World Trade Center Building 7. He also speaks out against the official 9/11 story, the lies told by the EPA about the air quality at Ground Zero and the critical need for a fresh independent investigation into the 9/11 attacks.
9/11: The elephant that will not leave
Tuesday, 5 June 2007 1:18 A GMT-05
The truth movement has now emerged from the caverns of obscurity into the limelight. Last year, The Tidings called for an open and complete investigation into the questions surrounding the 9/11 mysteries. We believe our nation owes that much to the innocent victims that died that day and to the troops deployed to the Middle East based upon the Bush administration's explanations of the events of 9/11. If the White House has nothing to hide, then why has it been so determined to dodge issues and questions posed by the people? We renew that call today. We don't pretend to know the truth, but we insist that the whole truth will only be known when newspapers around the country join us in demanding complete openness from our government. In the meantime, every American interested in truth would do well to revisit this painful issue.

It's all Barrie Zwicker's fault. He was the first media professional on the planet to start poking holes in the Bush administration's "Official Conspiracy Theory", on cable TV. He's Canadian, so, it must be his fault!
Why They Didn't Use Planes To Hit The WTC
Saturday, 2 June 2007 4:33 P GMT-05
The videos show that these planes that hit the towers supposedly at 470mph (Flight 11/North Tower) and 590mph (Flight 175/South Tower) penetrated all the way into the buildings which gave the perception that these planes were able to cause enough internal damage to cause both towers to collapse because they penetrated all the way into the buildings and exploded. With the following questions, you'll understand why the perps couldn't have used real planes to make the official collapse theory believable:
Giuliani Heckled, Booed By 9/11 Family Members
Saturday, 2 June 2007 12:52 A GMT-05
9/11 family members, firefighters and members of the activist group We Are Change confronted Rudy Giuliani for a second time earlier this week, as the former New York Mayor refused to answer questions about his foreknowledge of the WTC collapse and the desecration of the victim's remains.
Greg Palast Discredits 911 truth - Calls Steven Jones a "fruitcake"
Friday, 1 June 2007 10:53 A GMT-05
Greg Palast displays his complete ignorance on 911 truth. When the interviewer asked about WTC7, stating that it was not hit by any planes, Greg Palast replied: "I saw the planes hitting the buildings!" - and then say "we've looked at this, there's nothing to it." Like we're supposed to take his word for it? If he doesn't even know what WTC7 is, we can't trust this guy.
Friendly Fire: Army Sergeant demoted for questioning 9/11
Friday, 1 June 2007 10:46 A GMT-05
Since joining the Army in 1987, he had risen to the rank of sergeant first class, serving in both Gulf Wars, Bosnia, Rwanda, and Korea. He ended up with shrapnel scars and a Purple Heart and, back in the U.S. after his last tour in Iraq, a job as intelligence analyst at Fort Sam Houston. He couldn’t have foreseen that one e-mail could derail his career and put him on his way out of the Army. One e-mail, speculating about events that millions of people have questioned for the last six years, was all it took. Sgt. Buswell wants to know: What really happened on 9/11? And he said so in his e-mail. In the few paragraphs of that August 2006 message — a reply not to someone outside the service, but to other soldiers — Buswell wrote that he thought the official report of what happened that day at the Pentagon, and in the Pennsylvania crash of United Airlines Flight 93, was full of errors and unanswered questions. “Who really benefited from what happened that day?” he asked rhetorically. Not “Arabs,” but “the Military Industrial Complex,” Buswell concluded. “We must demand a new, independent investigation.” For voicing those opinions in an e-mail to 38 people on the San Antonio Army base, Buswell was stripped of his security clearance, fired from his job, demoted, and ordered to undergo a mental health exam.

Structural Engineers Question Collapse of the World Trade Center
Thursday, 31 May 2007 10:59 A GMT-05
One of the arguments that government apologists have used in trying to prop up the official story of why the World Trade Centers came down on 9/11 is that no structural engineers have questioned the government's version of events. However, that is now changing. The following structural engineers have now publicly challenged the government's account of the destruction of the Trade Centers on 9/11:
Donald Rumsfeld on 9/11: An enemy within
Thursday, 31 May 2007 10:55 A GMT-05
Furthermore, new evidence shows that for the critical two hours in which the attacks occurred, the country was effectively without a secretary of defense. An analysis of Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld’s actions on 9/11 reveals several occasions when he was alerted to the attacks that were taking place. Each time, if he were not already doing so, he should have leapt into action and assumed his responsibilities in coordinating a crisis response, and helping to protect the people of America. Yet, instead, his responses were consistent: He did nothing.
Winnipeg Sun: 9/11 an 'inside job'?
Monday, 28 May 2007 6:03 P GMT-05
Gage is scheduled to address a public audience tomorrow at 1 p.m. with a free lecture in University Centre at the University of Manitoba. At 7 p.m. he'll conduct a seminar at the Fort Garry Hotel. On Wednesday at 7 p.m., Gage will give a presentation at the Gas Station Theatre on what he calls the mainstream media's "code of silence" about the 9/11 "inside job." Joe Hawkins, a Winnipeg chiropractor helping arrange the seminars, says no one wants to talk about who's really behind the 9/11 attacks. "Clearly it points to elements within the government," he said. "If it's an inside job, it has to be inside the military-industrial government complex." Hawkins says he's on hiatus from his practice, in part because he's been busy the past few years trying to get information out about 9/11.
ae911truth.org -- Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth
Monday, 28 May 2007 5:47 P GMT-05
San Francisco architect Richard Gage, AIA, founder of the group, 'Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth,' announced today the official launch of the group's website - www.AE911Truth.org. Gage, along with dozens of other architecture and engineering professionals, have signed onto a petition posted on the site which questions the official reports of the destruction of the World Trade Center (WTC) Twin Towers and Building 7 in New York City on 9/11/01, and calls for a new investigation. Gage, who, along with many others in his group suspects that the towers may have been destroyed with explosives rather than plane impact and fire, says he expects the website to also serve as a vehicle for ongoing research into the causes of the destruction of all 3 WTC high-rise buildings that day.

Kyle Hence: An Open Letter to Chris Matthews
Monday, 28 May 2007 5:09 P GMT-05
Dear Mr. Matthews and Company: I'm at a loss as to which internationally televised statement is more absurd and irresponsible; that America needs "a little bit of fascism" a' la Giuliani or that Rudy Giuliani "owns 9/11." What is clear is MSNBC's total failure or refusal to bring forward the facts about Rudy Giuliani's record before, during and after 9/11. If Rudy and the much replayed images of him walking dust covered in downtown streets have you under a spell it's well past time to break it. The man is running for President on a false 9/11 image not on his actual record, which is damning, if only you'd honestly examine it and bring guests on your shows who can credibly speak to it.
Holes in the story
Saturday, 26 May 2007 7:01 P GMT-05
A recent Scripps Howard poll showed that more than a third of the American public suspects that federal officials assisted in the 9/11 terrorist attacks or took no action to stop them. An unscientific poll conducted on the Tidings' Web site indicated that 44 percent of responders don't believe the official story, or think the U.S. government was involved in planning the attacks. "There's something really wrong with this picture," said Ken Becker, who founded an Ashland-based organization seeking the truth about what happened on Sept. 11. "The official conspiracy theory is so filled with holes. So what's the truth?" Becker, the self-appointed leader of the local 9-11 truth movement, thinks it was an inside job, planned and executed by Vice President Dick Cheney and his neo-conservative cohorts in the White House. "This isn't new, it isn't unfathomable. It isn't even unreasonable," Becker said. "But still a huge percentage of Americans still believe their government would never do them wrong."
"Shadowplay" - New Documentary Fuses Anti-War Left & 9/11 Skepticism
Saturday, 26 May 2007 5:33 P GMT-05
Hijacking Catastrophe is a strong film, but it proceeds from an a priori notion, namely, blowback. 9/11 itself is not seriously examined in the film, only the aftermath. Shadowplay is the synthesis of blowback and MIHOP, in documentary form, bringing together such disparate voices as Scott Ritter and Barrie Zwicker, Ralph Schoenman and Steven E. Jones, Colonel Robert Bowman and General Leonid Ivashov and a host of others. I think that this film has the potential to erase the "firewall" between the anti-war Left and 9/11 skeptics.

A New Victim Added to the 9/11 Death Toll, and Sadly, More to Follow
Friday, 25 May 2007 2:43 A GMT-05
A woman who died of lung disease five months after Sept. 11 was added Wednesday to the medical examiner's list of attack victims, marking the first time the city has officially linked a death to the toxic dust caused by the World Trade Center's collapse. Felicia Dunn-Jones, a 42-year-old attorney who was caught in the dust cloud while fleeing the collapsing towers on Sept. 11, 2001, died of sarcoidosis, a disease that causes inflammation and scarring in the lungs, on Feb. 10, 2002.
Why is the establishment media so out of touch on 9/11?
Wednesday, 23 May 2007 10:57 A GMT-05
Last Sunday, C-Span 2 aired a session from the 2007 LA Times Festival of Books, called the “Age of Spin Panel,” whose purpose was to explore media deception during the Bush years – a big topic. The panel consisted of Newsweek journalist Michael Isikoff, political consultant Frank Luntz, Salon.com columnist Joe Conason, and Mother Jones magazine reporter David Goodman, all of whom, with the possible exception of Goodman, are well-known figures within the Washington media establishment. A number of topics were discussed – the Iraq war, the outing of Valerie Plame – but I found the panel chiefly interesting for what was said about 9/11. During the question and answer session, the discussion turned to the attacks, and to what extent the U.S. media failed to do its job in reporting about them. A woman stood up and said that she was from New York, that she had witnessed the collapse of the towers, that what she had seen she felt resembled a controlled demolition, and that she wanted to know what the panel thought about the media’s complicity in establishing an atmosphere of disinformation after the attacks. Instead of responding to her question, however, Mr. Luntz ignored her completely and requested that a man in the back row please lower a sign reading “9/11 Truth Now” so that those who “had traveled a long distance that day” could enjoy the panel. “That,” said Mr. Luntz, “is civility.” Naturally somewhat annoyed, the woman then asked Mr. Luntz why he wasn’t answering her question, at which point Mr. Luntz aggressively interrogated her, “who do you think did it, who do you think did it?” which, as the woman then pointed out, was not the question she was asking. What was so odd about all of this was to see how quickly the established parameters of the debate broke down as soon as the 9/11 question was introduced, how these four highly intelligent professional journalists who a moment ago had been calmly and rationally answering the audience’s questions were changed very quickly into four guys who clearly felt like they were being personally attacked by members of the audience, which, as far as I could tell, wasn’t the case at all. In the end, the thing I took away from watching the whole scene was that, for whatever reason, when it comes to dealing with this 9/11 issue – i.e. how much did the administration know beforehand about the attacks, to what extent can our own government be accountable, just what happened inside the buildings that day, why building 7 collapsed when no plane hit it, all perfectly reasonable questions that the 9/11 Commission itself was at a loss to fully explain – public intellectuals and professional journalists like Michael Isikoff, Joe Conason, Frank Luntz, and David Goodman are liable to experience a certain hysterical excitability that causes them to dismiss the issue outright, without taking the time to have a more nuanced understanding of the facts.
Debunkaholic Michelle Malkin Was A 9/11 Truther
Wednesday, 23 May 2007 10:35 A GMT-05
Back in February we exposed another establishment shill, George Monbiot, as a total hypocrite after he echoed the claim that 9/11 truth was a virus and bashed Loose Change. Shortly after the publication of his London Guardian rant, we uncovered one of Monbiot's earlier articles in which he questioned the official myth tat 19 Muslim hijackers executed the attack. Monbiot even went to the lengths of deleting the article from his own website in an attempt to hide his "truther" history but the piece remained elsehwere on the web. Rest assured, next time Malkin or Monbiot open their mouths to trash 9/11 truth we will throw this back in their faces - but it hardly seems necessary to rebut these people as Malkin and the rest of the debunkaholics seem to do an awfully good job of making themselves look like complete idiots with no effort on our behalf.
9/11 Debunkers Hide From Slam Dunk Evidence Of Controlled Demolition
Wednesday, 23 May 2007 10:29 A GMT-05
Professor Steven Jones presented brand new and compelling evidence for the controlled demolition of the twin towers and WTC 7 recently, but the 9/11 debunkers and the corporate media are loathe to tackle it because it represents a slam dunk on proving the collapse of the buildings was a deliberate act of arson. During a talk at the Rebuilding America's Senses event at the University of Texas last month, Jones laid out facts about steel samples recovered from the WTC site that Popular Mechanics dare not even attempt to debate. Debunkers are scared to even get near this information because the science behind it fundamentally contradicts the official story of what happened on 9/11. Jones detailed his lab experiments in which he attempted to replicate NIST's conclusion that the lava like orange material flowing out of the south tower is aluminum from Flight 175, the plane that hit the building. Jones clearly documents the fact that liquid aluminum is silver and not orange as is seen in the video of the south tower, therefore the material cannot be aluminum. Jones then explains that the material is in fact a compound that can cut through steel like a hot knife through butter, thermite with sulphur added to make thermate.
Just What Was Cheney Doing on the Morning of 9/11?
Tuesday, 22 May 2007 10:04 A GMT-05
In this hour-long lecture recorded at the Arizona 9/11 Accountability Conference on February 25th, 2007, researcher Peter Dale Scott presents a host of contradicting accounts describing the actions of Vice President Cheney on the morning of 9/11, and how the 9/11 Commission cherry-picked its way through this minefield of contradictions, including contradictions by the Vice President himself!

Kevin Barrett In Morocco
Tuesday, 22 May 2007 2:12 A GMT-05
M. Barrett will be in Morocco from May 6th onward. The purpose of his trip is an attempt to find the Saudi Arabian Waleed al-Shehri, who has been presented, along with his brother Wail, as one of five hijackers who took over Flight 11 out of Boston. One problem: shortly afterward the Saudi newspaper as-Sharq al-Awsat reported that the same Waleed al-Shehri was contacting the American and Saudi embassies proclaiming his innocence. At the time, the American authorities said it was a case of mistaken identity. That hypothesis doesn't stand up, since alongside the photo and birthdate, which are indeed those of the Waleed al-Shehri who lives in Morocco, there is also the birthdate and photo of his brother. In short, it is a muddle that casts a monstrous shadow over the events of 9/11, a shadow that Kevin Barrett will try to cast light upon. Will the truth emerge from Morocco?
Why Can’t We Talk About 911?
Saturday, 19 May 2007 5:01 P GMT-05
“Just don’t talk about it,” seems to be the societal norm around 911. I recognize that as one of the signs of the grief process -- Denial. Isn’t it time we move to the next phase of grief? We’re stuck.
NY Times Attempts To Debunk 9/11 Truth; Fails Miserably
Saturday, 19 May 2007 3:54 P GMT-05
Although it is easily countered, the Times exposure highlights the fact that 9/11 truth movement has exploded into the mainstream. It also underlines the fact that the debunkers are losing the battle to quell the public's desire to uncover the lies and discover what really happened on 9/11 as their line of argument becomes more diluted and weakened with each ill informed and poor researched attack piece they produce.
What everyone should know about the 9/11 truth movement...
Saturday, 19 May 2007 3:52 P GMT-05
The 9/11 Truth movement is not a conspiracy movement. Believe it or not, the majority of people involved in criticism of the government's official story (the 'official conspiracy theory' as many have come to call it) do not know what really happened on 9/11, and they admit that. However, in admitting this they demand that we all should and moreover must know the truth about what did happen. Most agree that whatever the government's story, it does not hold up to charges of at the very least, omission and distortion if not outright lying. The majority of people involved in the 9/11 Truth movement have far more questions than theories, and almost everyone will acknowledge that no conclusions are possible until a thorough, transparent, citizen-led investigation occurs without the obstructionist tactics and top-secret classifications that our government has become all too good at deploying.
Update: Ex-EPA Chief Whitman Agrees to Testify
Saturday, 19 May 2007 3:05 P GMT-05
Ex-EPA chief Christine Todd Whitman abruptly reversed herself Friday and agreed to testify before Congress on her agency's response to the environmental fallout of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks. Two days ago, Whitman's lawyer Joel Kobert had denied a request from a House panel chaired by Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., for his client to testify, noting she was named in two lawsuits related to the issue. But today, Whitman herself told Nadler in a hand-delivered letter that she was willing to participate in a hearing "if you insist."
9/11 Survivor Questions Official Story on Local Fox News
Saturday, 19 May 2007 2:49 P GMT-05
William Rodriguez, the “Last Man Standing” on 9/11, appeared on Fox News in Boston, MA. He talked about explosions in the basement, before the plane hit, as well as secondary explosions occurring. Mr. Rodriguez also takes the time to mention the media blackout in the United States on 9/11 Truth issues.
The Denial of 911 Truth
Wednesday, 16 May 2007 5:56 P GMT-05
I understand that we see what we want to see and that we have a herd mentality, we believe if we follow the masses we will be safe, if we don’t rock the boat we will be fine and if we don’t make eye contact with the monster he will not see us. But when we begin questioning it is not long before the ugly mess becomes clear and that is why we are discouraged by name-calling and personal attacks on our character. I will continue beating the drum for 911 Truth because if our leaders pulled one over on us this vast, God only knows what is coming next. Yes, it is difficult to consider our own government may have had a hand in the demise of thousands of citizens, but what if? Do we live in denial because we are afraid our worldview and belief systems may change if we acknowledge the truth? Well, the world is changing whether we acknowledge it or not and it seems to me being informed is the most important tool we can hold.

Christie Todd Whitman Refuses To Testify At Congressional Hearing
Wednesday, 16 May 2007 5:02 P GMT-05
The former head of the Environmental Protection Agency is balking at a request by Rep. Jerrold Nadler that she testify before a congressional hearing on the federal response to the attacks of September 11, 2001. Christine Todd Whitman, the EPA administrator at the time, has declined an invitation to appear before a House subcommittee that Mr. Nadler chairs, an aide to the congressman said yesterday. Mr. Nadler, whose district includes ground zero, is expected to ask Ms. Whitman again before considering whether to seek to compel her testimony with a subpoena, the aide, speaking on condition of anonymity, said. Mr. Nadler and Senator Clinton yesterday announced companion hearings to investigate what they say was the government's failure to respond adequately to the environmental crisis in Lower Manhattan that resulted from the attack on the World Trade Center. Mr. Nadler's hearing is scheduled for May 22; Mrs. Clinton's is set for June 20.
9/11 Truth Activist Gets Death Threats
Wednesday, 16 May 2007 4:49 P GMT-05
I have been receiving a lot of death threats as have my loved ones and friends close to me have been getting a lot of death threats," said Rudowski, adding that the calls contained personal information that no one else would know unless Rudowski had been under close surveillance. Rudowski was told "If you know what's good for you you're going to stop," and the callers made it clear that they were aware of Luke's movements, right down to where he was going away for a weekend break, information he had only told a handful of close companions.
A Marine for Truth
Tuesday, 15 May 2007 5:56 P GMT-05
Something that I wanted you all to know is the reactions I recieved from every astonished service member after they calmed down. The first person to walk up and tell me this movement would leave a black mark on my life, later admitted that he agreed with more of our beliefs than he could admit. (Air Force Officer) The second Marine simply told me "you can't do this yet." ...yet. The third Marine took my number and later called me with two other Marine Corps Officers to inform me that I was facing a dishonorable discharge, but also saying that I was an outstanding individual and more people needed to voice their opinions to stop this war. The fourth Lt. Col. actually gave me ideas to continue this march after three 9/11Truthers jumped down his throat in protection of our 1st Amendment.
Confirmed: 9/11 Truthers To Appear On The View
Tuesday, 15 May 2007 5:29 P GMT-05
Professor Steven Jones was sounded out for an appearance shortly after O'Donnell first started discussing 9/11 truth on the show and he is expected to be making an appearance very soon. We are confirming who else is set to appear and will have that news in the next day or two.
Too Incompetent to Carry Out 9/11?
Tuesday, 15 May 2007 1:13 A GMT-05
When faced with evidence that elements of our own government orchestrated the 9/11 attacks, millions of Americans smugly respond that the Bush administration was too incompetent to have done it. A common statement is "They're too incompetent to even win a war against a bunch of poorly-armed people; how could they have pulled off 9/11?" Bush certainly acts like a bumbler and a good old boy. Cheney accidentally shot his hunting buddy. And Rumsfeld -- Secretary of Defense when 9/11 occurred -- apparently mangled the planning of the war in Iraq. Right? Not so fast. Are Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld really that incompetent?
9/11 Truthers Should Thank Fox News
Friday, 11 May 2007 11:15 A GMT-05
In another "fair and balanced" piece Alan Colmes and Sean Hannity again weakly attempted to debunk the inside job evidence while at the same time making themselves look like the playground bullies everyone else has outgrown and now points to and laughs at. Colmes began by stating "The 9/11 conspiracy wingnuts are it again". So let us be as equally fair and balanced by beginning this analysis with the following... The corporate hack establishment government lapdog media whores are at it again. Colmes and Hannity attempted to spin what John Kerry had said to hoodwink their doped up viewers into thinking that Kerry was not referring to building 7 and that his words had been taken completely out of context.
A New Push to Identify an Old Part
Friday, 11 May 2007 11:06 A GMT-05
Dylan Avery has sent out a renewed call to help identify the item pictured above. It was found on 9/11 on the roof of a police car at ground zero. This item is not new, but we hope that perhaps the growth of the movement (or its counter-movement) can help positively identify this item once and for all.

Cancer Claims 9/11 Cop
Wednesday, 9 May 2007 2:33 P GMT-05
A detective on Mayor Bloomberg's security detail died yesterday of cancer - an illness his family and union officials believe can be traced to his work in the toxic debris at Ground Zero after 9/11. Detective Kevin Hawkins, 42, died at 2 a.m. at the hospice unit of Calvary Hospital in The Bronx, said Vic Cipulla, vice president of the Detectives Endowment Association. He'd been diagnosed with kidney cancer in September. Cipulla said Hawkins and his family had filed a claim that would seek verification that his illness was in the line of duty, making him eligible for a disability pension.
Loose Change Press Release: Stop Threatening Free Speech, Release Date for Final Cut
Wednesday, 9 May 2007 2:17 P GMT-05
None of us chose 9/11 as our cause; it chose us. We didn’t want to believe the hoax of 9/11 but our heads and our hearts told us; that the official story just didn’t add up; that the laws of physics can’t lie; that 300 degree celsius fires can’t melt steel; that Building Seven, that 47 story steel and concrete edifice couldn’t just implode suddenly at 5.20PM on the afternoon of 11th September; and the BBC couldn’t have predicted and announced its implosion 20 minutes before it happened, unless forewarned.
THEY KNEW: Tenet's Book Reveals 9-11 Perjury
Wednesday, 9 May 2007 2:00 P GMT-05
George Tenet's new book, At the Center of the Storm, reveals something extremely important about events in the final weeks before 9/11. For the first time, the former CIA Director admits he flew to Crawford in late August, just weeks before the attack by al-Qaeda cells known to be in the U.S., and briefed President George W. Bush personally about the threat.
Philly 9/11 Truth takes control of the A28 Impeachment Rally
Wednesday, 9 May 2007 4:54 A GMT-05
April 28, 2007, thousands of patriots gathered around the nation calling for impeachment of the Bush administration. Philly 9/11 Truth joined their local event and with the approval of the host, World Can't Wait, delivered a powerful speech educating the open minded about state sponsored terrorism and 9/11. After an array of speakers and performers the event transmuted into a march through the streets of Philadelphia. As the crowd of enthusiastic patriots streamed through the city resounding chants and radiating an intense image, Philly 9/11 Truth seized the stream of impeachment and converted it into a river of truth by co-opting chants and emancipating minds. The following footage is exemplary of how a concerted effort by a small 9/11 Truth brigade can do the work of one hundred men.
Barbara Olson’s Alleged Call from AA 77: A Correction about Onboard Phones
Tuesday, 8 May 2007 4:31 A GMT-05
In this brief essay, I have tried to exemplify what I have always said people should do when they find that they have made errors, especially about issues of great importance: Correct them quickly, forthrightly, and publicly. I assume that now NIST, Popular Mechanics, and the 9/11 Commission will retract the dozens of errors that have been pointed out in their reports.
Excerpt: Debunking 9/11 Debunking - "Experts"
Monday, 7 May 2007 6:44 P GMT-05
On the one hand, virtually all of the "experts" who have reached - or at least publicly endorsed - the government's theory have been working on behalf of government agencies (such as FEMA and NIST) and/or for private industries that are dependent on government funding. On the other hand, the 9/11 truth movement can appeal to a growing number of experts, including Holland's Danny Jowenko, Switzerland's Hugo Bachmann and Jorg Schneider, and Finland's Heikki Kurttila, who reject the official theory. The debate between the two theories cannot, therefore, be settled by appeal to authority. It must be settled by appeal to the evidence.
Potential terror jurors cite 9/11 doubts
Sunday, 6 May 2007 4:51 P GMT-05
First, isn't it interesting that a person's views about the 9/11 attacks are now the basis for peremptory challenges during jury selection? It's certainly an effective way of weeding out opinions that don't conform to the official line - just as those who don't support the death penalty are automatically dismissed from juries. This is an unjust and pernicious practice. By denying those who don't agree with death sentencing a place on juries, the true breadth of public opinion on the subject cannot be represented on juries. It creates an ideologically lopsided jury pool heavy with conformists. Seems the same thing is in danger of happening with 9/11.
London 9/11 Truth Roundtable (Podcast)
Saturday, 5 May 2007 4:53 P GMT-05
Truth believers
Saturday, 5 May 2007 4:27 P GMT-05
Contrary to the popularly held belief that anyone who charges that the government had any direct responsibility for the 9/11 attacks should immediately be dismissed as a "conspiracy-theory kook," more and more well-educated, "normal" people--teachers, engineers, computer scientists--are becoming part of the movement. Samuel Ready is one of those normal people. Ready speaks with unagitated zeal of his need to reach out and enlighten others about "9/11 Truth," as it is referred to within the movement. The subtle grandfatherly twinkle in his eye helps put one quickly at ease, while he speaks with the sense of purpose that one often finds in those working to convert others to their religious faith. Ready recalls, beginning in the spring of 2004, trying to talk to fellow members of the Spiritual Enrichment Center (the church he attended at the time) and other people about the 9/11 attacks from a viewpoint questioning the official story. "No one knew what I was talking about," Ready reflected. "I decided that I had to reach out."
No Airfones on Flight 77 - DRG on Jack Blood
Saturday, 5 May 2007 8:02 A GMT-05
Griffin: Yeah, more than likely. But he claims that he got this call from Barbara, his wife, from Flight 77 but he was unclear. First he would say it was from cell phone and then he would say, well no it was from one of the seat back phones. And he’s gone back and forth. So, it turns out now we know that cell phone calls were not possible. So, that makes everybody say, well sure maybe she did it on airfones. It turns out that particular Boeing, American Boeing 757 that Flight 77 was, was not equipped with airfones. This was a stunning development.
9/11 and the Evidence
Saturday, 5 May 2007 7:50 A GMT-05
Everyone who believes in the integrity of the US government or the Bush administration will find Griffin’s book to be disturbing. Readers will have to confront such issues as why US authorities seized the forensic evidence resulting from the destruction of the three World Trade Center buildings, the attack on the Pentagon and the crashed airliner in Pennsylvania and prevented any forensic examination of any part of the 9/11 attacks. Despite widespread belief that Osama bin Laden was responsible for the attack, the evidence we have is a suspect video declared to be "bogus" by Bruce Lawrence, perhaps the leading American expert on bin Laden. The US government has never produced the promised report on bin Laden’s responsibility. When the Taliban offered to hand over bin Laden on presentation of evidence, the US government had no evidence to deliver; thus the invasion of Afghanistan.
Barrett reports on press conference at Nass's office
Saturday, 5 May 2007 2:13 A GMT-05
I assume the mainstream coverage will spin this as yet another adventure of the "wacky conspiracy professor." As with last year's Fox News coverage, the publicity will lead many previously ignorant people to do what so many did last summer, including one pilot who called me later to apologize: Get so angry with me that they decide to research what I'm saying to see just how wrong and crazy I am. It did not take that pilot long to discover that I was right--and he has been helping wake up other pilots ever since. The same thing will happen when people start googling "hijackers still alive."
"Fatty" bin Laden
Saturday, 5 May 2007 12:19 A GMT-05
Even with all flaws of the American judicial system, a suspect is unlikely to be convicted of murder solely on the basis of a video of someone with only a faint resemblance and a different voice confessing. Apparently the bar for proving guilt is much lower when the prosecutor is the U.S. Administration, and the punishment is the bombing of thousands of innocent people.
Missing Bodies
Saturday, 5 May 2007 12:16 A GMT-05
The number of people believed to have been killed in the World Trade Center attack hovers around 2,780, three years after the attack. 1 2 No trace has been identified for about half the victims, despite the use of advanced DNA techniques to identify individuals. Six weeks after the attack only 425 people had been identified. 3 A year after the attack, only half of the victims had been identified. 19,906 remains were recovered from Ground Zero, 4,735 of which were identified. Up to 200 remains were linked to a single person. 4 Of the 1,401 people identified, 673 of the IDs were based on DNA alone. Only 293 intact bodies were found. Only twelve could be identified by sight. 5
Bush Told Of First Attack On 9/11 Before He Left Hotel
Friday, 4 May 2007 11:45 P GMT-05
ABC News reporter John Cochran told ABC's Peter Jennings, "He got out of his hotel suite this morning, was about to leave, reporters saw the White House chief of staff Andy Card whisper into his ear, then reporters said to the President 'do you know what's going on in New York'? - he said he did and would have something to say about it later." This contradicts Bush's statement that he made on two separate occasions, that he first learned of what was going on in New York from watching a television outside of the classroom as he prepared to talk about education with a group of Florida schoolchildren.
"Open Complicity: Anatomy of the 9/11 Cover-Up"
Friday, 4 May 2007 8:42 P GMT-05
The following is a very interesting, though somewhat controversial documentary produced by A2planet/Ann Arbor 9/11 Truth. To preempt any misunderstanding, I would like to restate here - once again - that material I present is not necessarily material I agree with in its entirety. The reason I am restating it here is that the film touches on some very emotive issues and I can foresee a lot of people jumping to conclusions here whereas the truth of the matter is that I have as of yet not even fully formed an opinion about it - other than to say that ideas presented there are certainly worth a look and a thought.

Potential terror jurors cite 9/11 doubts
Friday, 4 May 2007 2:54 A GMT-05
Many potential jurors in the Jose Padilla terrorism-support case say they aren't sure who directed the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks because they don't trust reporters or the federal government. "There are too many ifs, too many things going on," one male juror said. "I don't know the whole story." Others say they just don't pay close enough attention to world events to be certain. "I'm oblivious to that stuff," one prospective female juror said during questioning this week. "I don't watch the news much. I try to avoid it."
Psychiatrists and Psychologists: Government's 9/11 Story is Crazy
Friday, 4 May 2007 2:09 A GMT-05
Should people who question the government's version of the events of 9/11 have their heads examined? Well, the following psychiatrists and psychologists have concluded that the official version of 9/11 is false. Moreover, many of these mental health experts have concluded that the government's account is so obviously false that people who believe the government's version are in psychological denial:
On Activism, Respect, and Provocateurs ...
Thursday, 3 May 2007 4:27 P GMT-05
911Truth.org does not promote, condone, endorse, or otherwise advocate defacing or destroying private property ... ever! We are receiving numerous complaints and legal threats in response to "alleged" 911truth.org activists stickering, and now spray painting, private property. In particular, we have just received a call from Michigan alerting us to the fact that someone spray-painted people's homes with "911truth.org" last night. Whether the work of an overly zealous graffiti artist or, more likely, a provocateur's concerted effort to discredit us, it is clearly unacceptable, illegal, and utterly disrespectful.
Hours after 9/11 attacks, Rumsfeld allegedly said, 'My interest is to hit Saddam'
Thursday, 3 May 2007 11:07 A GMT-05
And sure, why not? After all, that was what PNAC was set to do anyhow - and now that so much had happened and there was no need to answer for those missing $2.3 trillion - why not just go for it?
Kia Baskerville (CBS) learns of both plane crashes in New York before President Bush?
Thursday, 3 May 2007 1:42 A GMT-05
Are we really expected to believe that Kia Baskerville learned of both the 1st and 2nd plane crashes (via cell phone) before the President of the United States? She learned of the first plane while on route to the school in the motorcade, but the POTUS did not?

Bay Area Bridge And WTC Tower Collapses: No Comparison. Here's Why
Wednesday, 2 May 2007 6:30 P GMT-05
No honest comparison of the 2 events can ever proceed until the media begins to include all available evidence for comparison, including the abundant evidence of explosive device use in the World Trade Center tower destructions (evidence first acknowledged, then later suppressed):
A major Italian network has recently aired some conclusive evidence that Building 7 was demolished with explosives | 911Blogger.com
Wednesday, 2 May 2007 6:26 P GMT-05
To us "9/11 victims" are not only the 3,000 people that perished on that day, but also some 650,000 civilians killed in Iraq since the invasion began, 100,000 plus Afghans who've met the same fate in their country, more than 3,000 US soldiers sent by "Dick & Rummy" to die under false pretense, and --sadly but truly -- the ever increasing number of first responders who were knowingly sent to their death by an administration that could be defined "criminal" for this one action alone. It's for them all that we fight.
David Ray Griffin debunks the official 9/11 story Common Ground May 2007
Wednesday, 2 May 2007 6:25 P GMT-05
Point by point, Griffin’s multi-faceted evidence converges on the conclusion that 9/11 was a false flag operation by vested interests seeking public consent to occupy the Middle East. If worldwide calls for an impartial investigation succeed, Griffin’s reference works will help guide the investigators through the growing maze of lies and cover-ups to an understanding of what actually happened that day. The resulting truth could well relieve the world of the fear, hatred and ugliness the event has spawned.
911: Can You Handle The Truth?
Wednesday, 2 May 2007 6:07 P GMT-05
9-11 is one of the most infamous days of our current time. Many people experienced the events of that day with surprise, shock, sadness, and anger. I am one of them.All of these emotions clouded my judgment until I early on discovered an entire, very credible counter culture for lack of a better term that from almost day one has researched and opposed the official government story parroted by the mainstream. This counter culture that involves people and experts from all walks of life has been mostly unable to get an honest spirited debate in the mainstream without being labeled nut cases and anti-American. Why is this?
Virgin Atlantic Airways to Show Loose Change 2 In-Flight

MercuryMedia International announce they have licensed the 9/11 Internet hit Loose Change 2 to Virgin Atlantic Airways. The controversial film, made for just $10,000 h
