June 7, 2005 - Honesty is a tricky business. What happens when an honest assessment
of the situation actually works against your ultimate objective? What do you do
then, when one of life's little riddles sneaks up and bites you on the butt? Well, first you examine your long term objectives. What is your ultimate purpose?
What is it you are trying to do? And finally, what the heck are we here for,
anyway? Then you review the short term goal. What is it I was trying to accomplish?
And does that immediate achievement justify sitting on facts you suspect to
be true, but don't dare say? And ultimately, will aspiring toward the short
term goal actually work against your long term objective? I could at this point veer into the murky territory that both links and repels
men and women, but in the dull interests of decorous propriety, I will not,
except to say the classic male example of this conundrum typically is a confession
of undying love in pursuit of minimally sincere sexual activity, producing a
result where one’s long term objectives are inevitably polluted by the
short term goal. (Ooh, I can just hear those speculative wheels spinning crazily
in the minds of voyeuristic cybergossipers, but let me stress this I am only
using this as a hypothetical for-instance.) More to the point — and in fact exactly on it — is my perspective
on the events of September 11, 2001, the day the world changed. Or, as I have
said in the title of my booklet, "The Day America Died." I remember that day all too well. I was standing in front of my TV. I had just
awakened and flipped it on, intending to zap the clicker to ESPN to catch the
latest sports news, a typical daily habit that occurs just before I stumble
into the kitchen to make my coffee. By chance, the tube was set to NBC, where
the plastic Today show commentators were talking about a plane that had crashed
into the World Trade Center. So I never changed the channel. I just stood there,
eyelids glued apart, and watched as plane number two glided into the south tower,
and into history. I just stood there, I don't know for how long. Eventually I turned around,
made the coffee, and listened to the aghast commentary of the NBC crew. I don't
remember now what it was triggered my next verbal outburst, whether it was Katie
Couric reporting the government saying it was Osama bin Laden who was behind
the attacks, or some vaguer speculation about Arab terrorists. I only know I turned around, stalked into the living room, and then with the
most certain self-assured vehemence I have ever shown in my life, started bellowing:
"No way! No freaking way!" I knew then, right then and there, that 9/11 was an inside job. That this was
not the work of Arab terrorists, unless they played some minor diversionary
role in a complex and deliberately confusing cast of characters. That this was
done at the behest of the people who control our lives, who wanted to create
a stultifying example that would be branded into the minds of the muddled masses
in order to create a war mentality to justify their criminal intent to make
war on the whole world, and make a handsome profit from it. Nothing I have seen, heard, or read since has caused me to feel even the merest
shadow of a doubt about what I felt at that moment. All those millions of words,
mostly written by people who have no stake in anything media-related or politically
purposeful, have only reinforced my conviction. The highest, most important leaders in our land, and other countries as well,
were behind the scheme to kill thousands of American citizens in order to justify
an intensified assault on the oil-producing countries of the Middle East and
elsewhere. Time and the telling of hundreds of more lies have only deepened
my conviction, and proved it far beyond a reasonable doubt. The plans for these
wars were drawn up BEFORE 9/11, and the lies utilized to execute them have become
well-established in the public eye, at least for those interested enough to
take a look. So I began to write about it, firing thought cannons into cyberspace that were
read by thousands of readers but which had little or no effect on the world
at large. Gathering every fact I could from each mind who cared to comment on
these matters, I soon amassed an array of speculative evidence from a variety
of researchers that convincingly confirmed my initial emotional impressions. I always thought the government's lies were the best piece of evidence, what
with Cheney, Rice, and Myers all saying "we had no idea something like
this could happen" and then the FBI announcing the names of ALL the hijackers
later in the day. When Bush announced the invasion of Afghanistan as a response
to 9/11, it soon became evident that this demonic target-shoot has been planned
years before the towers had been hit. But more tangible evidence quickly followed: Why did the FBI quickly confiscate
that videotape from that gas station across the street from the Pentagon that
would have clearly shown exactly what hit the Pentagon? Because it would not
have verified their story — that is the only reason it could be. And that is legitimate probable cause for a thousand prosecutions, if we had
a law enforcement apparatus that actually tried to enforce the law. Why is there no evidence of the so-called hijackers actually being on the supposedly
hijacked airliners? Or even if they were, of having no snowball's chance in
hell of executing the impossible aerobatic maneuvers necessary to do what the
government said they did? There were no hijackers. And no reason to invade foreign
countries. The time the towers took fall is what I consider the smoking gun. There is
no way structures of that mass and complexity could have free-fallen the way
they did without the 47 core columns of each twin tower being expertly severed
by explosives. The minimal fires supposedly caused by the plane crashes were
neither hot nor widespread enough to cause the buildings to fall at all, never
mind the way they did, conveniently and neatly into their own footprints. No way! No freaking way! However, it wasn't long before I dared verbally venture into these matters
when I ran afoul of people with different opinions as to what actually happened. And as it stands today, the 9/11 skeptics movement is in total shambles, with
the dominant personalities far more interested in pushing their own personal
view of things and advancing their own interests than they are in convincing
the public they need to focus on the American criminal politicians who were
behind the whole caper in the first place. And this is a truly tragic twist, because now that the American public, weary
from the continued flimsiness of government lies about current events, is ready
to confront the biggest lie of them all — 9/11 — the 9/11 skeptics
movement has deteriorated into trivial bickering that serves no purpose at all
other than reveal the shallow, selfish motives of many of its participants. I receive about 2,000 e-mails per week, most from people who are intensely
interested in solving this problem. One recent one from the indefatigable story
forwarder Sally Chrisinis in Texas contained a link to a 2004 story by Gerard
Holmgren that I consider the single best overall roundup of what really happened
on 9/11 that I have ever read, titled "Manufactured Terrorism: The Truth
About Sept. 11." Read it here: http://911closeup.com/index.shtml?ID=51 Holmgren, an award-winning, Australian blues guitarist, has distinguished himself
as the 9/11 researcher with probably more amazing discoveries than anyone else
(especially that two of the supposedly fatal flights on 9/11 never showed up
in FAA records, and that the passenger lists are riddled with inconsistencies). He is also at the center of, and chief spokesman for, the single issue that
most divides the 9/11 skeptics movement — the assertion that there were
no planes, or at least no passenger jetliners — used in the attacks. Just for a moment, savor this enigma. The best researcher says there were no
planes. Or, more precisely, not the planes we thought we saw. Try to view this as a perfect parallel to the overall 9/11 dilemma. A majority
of Americans, trapped as they are in media manufactured images for the entirety
of their lives, simply cannot bring themselves to believe that their elected
officials could ever even contemplate such a dastardly deed, never mind actually
commit it. So imagine how hard it would be to convince the public, which did not want
to believe their leaders killed 3,000 of their own people, that on top of that,
the whole charade was pulled off without the planes we thought we saw. This
was always my chief objection to the no-plane theory. It would be met by guffaws
(and has been). No one would believe it. Hell, it was hard enough to try and
get people to believe their own government would actually do this (even though
I never found it hard to believe, because there are simply too many similar
historical precedents of self-inflicted wounds to justify aggression). But then, from various nooks and crannies of the Internet, reality began to
intrude. First, there was no plane wreckage at the Pentagon, except a couple of apparently
seeded parts that may or may not have matched up to the specifications of the
plane that was supposed to have hit it. Add on top of this the government's
assertion that the DNA of each passenger was later identified after a fire that
was so blazingly hot that it vaporized an entire jetliner into complete invisibility.
And on top of that, remember that this was the plane that supposedly flew for
an hour and 40 minutes in the most secure airspace in the world without being
intercepted by our crack Air Force. And finally there was the impossible aerobatic
maneuver the pilot of Flight 77 was supposed to have executed — a 270-degree
diving turn at 600 mph — that not even Neil Armstrong could have pulled
off, and this was done by a guy, a wacked-out Arab terrorist named Hani Hanjour,
who from all reports had trouble driving a car. So you begin to suspect there's something wrong with the Pentagon story (to
say the least). OK, then you consider the crash in Pennsylvania, on which the passengers supposedly
staged a valiant attempt to wrest control of the plane from hijackers, and in
the ensuing fight, the plane crashed to the ground. It isn't so much the fact
that no one actually saw this plane crash, or that there was something curiously
anomalous about the wreckage, or that many witnesses recall seeing an unmarked
white jet cruising around the area. My pal Brad sent me an interesting timeline about Flight 93 that included the
evocative phone calls Deena Burnett supposedly received from her husband Tom
as he struggled with the dire situation fighting the hijackers aboard the doomed
jetliner. Just after 6 a.m. California time, Deena Burnett called 911 (the number, not
the day) and said she’d just received a cell phone call from her husband
who was on a plane. Deena told the cops: “They just knifed a passenger
and there are guns on the plane.” Seven minutes later, or so the story goes, Tom Burnett called Deena again.
She says he said: “The guy they knifed is dead.” Greg Gordon’s riveting account in the Sacramento Bee of the Burnetts’
tragic morning < http://tinyurl.com/dzh7h >, with Tom furnishing inside
details meticulously enunciated to verify the government’s story, will
bring tears to your eyes. It did to mine. And then you remember that this was a cellphone call, and the plane at that
time was flying at 35,000 feet (and climbing to 41,000). And you remember the
words of Professor A.K. Dewdney (among others), who has proved conclusively
that cellphones don't work at that altitude. See, for example, http://911research.wtc7.net/planes/analysis/phonecalls.html So you begin to suspect that there's something wrong with this Pennsylvania
story, and think, hmm, deja vu all over again? OK, then you begin to think back about the events in New York City, and you
remember the famous Naudet video, which showed the first crash of the day, Flight
11 slamming into the north tower of the World Trade Center. It's a crappy video,
all fuzzy and jerky, supposedly because the Naudet brothers caught it by serendipitous
accident while filming a documentary that day about firefighters. If you've done any research into these matters, you've watched the blown-up,
slowed-down version of that footage over and over, and you can't escape the
nagging feeling that that plane's wings are perpendicular to the fuselage —
not swept back at an angle like those on a passenger jetliner. And you can't
help but begin to wonder — what kind of plane was that? And you remember
the initial reports of a small plane hitting the tower. So you begin to think to there's something wrong with this North Tower story.
And by now it's a familiar refrain. When I put these three thoughts together, I am ready to believe Holmgren's
story. If three of the crashes have been grotesquely misrepresented, there no
way the fourth one could have happened as reported. If you think it could have,
then you have never placed a bet in your entire life, and should never. But what really nailed it for me was George Nelson, the retired Air Force colonel
who recently wrote a story about airplane crashes in general. Nelson said there
has never been an example of an airplane crash in which the plane could not
be identified because of an innocuous item called replaceable time-change parts,
small components in the vastly complex array of machinery necessary to get these
big machines off the ground. Each airplane has numerous time-change parts that are all recorded in their
meticulously kept maintenance logs, and each of these parts has serial numbers
that are logged in as well, hence providing a certifiable record of part with
plane. Many of these parts are too small to be destroyed in a crash. I mean,
even in the worst crashes, if a plane is reduced to rubble the size of say,
silver dollars, some of these parts are even smaller than that, so they don't
get further reduced in size. They turn up in a search of the wreckage, a serial
number is found, and the plane is identified by the connection recorded in its
maintenance log. Every crash that has ever happened, Nelson asserts, has been identified in
this manner. See http://www.physics911.net/georgenelson.htm Except on 9/11. No replaceable part that could link the planes said to have
crashed to a piece of rubble that was examined on that day has ever been found. Nelson’s conclusion? “The Bush administration has provided no public
evidence to support its claim that the terror attacks were the work of Muslim
extremists or even that the aircraft that struck their respective targets on
September 11 were as advertised .... it would be a simple matter to confirm
that they were - if they were. Until such proof is forthcoming, the opposite
claim must be kept in mind as a precaution against rushing to judgment: the
911 hijackings were part of a black operation carried out with the cooperation
of elements in our government.” (And this guy’s a retired colonel.) At that point, planes or not, I was ready to believe Holmgren's tale (after
years of arbitrarily denying it was true, because I just could not believe it). But one formidable hurdle remained. The major image seared forever into the
minds of every person on earth is the crash of what the government says was
Flight 175 into the South Tower. We’ve seen it over and over. It is etched
into our dreams. Holmgren, along with his allies in film analysis, The Webfairy, Scott Loughery,
Nico Haupt, Marcus Icke and the whole “no-plane” movement, continue
to insist it was done electronically — that there were no planes —
because of anomalies they have observed in the videos of the event. I had occasion to converse with the Webfairy (Rosalee Grable) recently, and
I told her I was ready to believe Holmgren’s version of events, except
for one thing — how do you explain so many different camera angles on
that crash all recording essentially the same event, and how could eyewitnesses
see it if it were all done with exotic film techniques? This was the question that had always hung me up in this debate. Sure, most
of us had only seen it on TV, but what about all those people who were running
from the raining rubble — what had they seen? And what about the people
in Queens who watched it on the Von Kleist video. And what were the suspicious
Israelis filming from the New Jersey shore — only a video deception? How could a hologram of jet crash been seen by so many people from so many
different angles? I am no technical expert on these matters, but for all the
reading I’ve done on the Internet these past three years, you’d
think I would have run across the subject — since I’ve been looking
for it. Rosalee told me that Gerard and her friends no longer believe it was a hologram,
and that they now believe it was all done in the ersatz movie studio of a flight
simulator, and then that footage was somehow transmitted to the TV networks. Holmgren responded forthrightly. “I can't give a definite answer. As
with the Pentagon, all I can say for sure is what it was not. That is, it was
not the "plane" which we see in the video. The illusory plane masks
whatever it was.” So there it was again — the difficulty of the story. In all four events
on 9/11, we can’t figure out what happened, but the evidence that can
be assembled indicates the official story is not true. The dilemma of a difficult story that cannot be easily conveyed to the public
is what made me reject it in the first place, but in the same way that people’s
attitudes ultimately have no bearing on the veracity of what they’re saying,
so the difficulties in comprehending a story have no relevance as to whether
or not it’s true. Where I began this reconsideration of a contentious dispute was by remembering
that you can’t determine the veracity of information on the basis of someone’s
reputation. And the reputation of the no-planers is horrible. They have savaged
everyone who dared question their version of events, and left a trail of bad
feelings wherever they’ve gone. They have intimidated many into frustrated silence with a constant barrage
of cantankerous contentions, and a result have attracted all manner of derogatory
adjectives, including from me. And yet, we continue to use their information
— that two of the flights may never existed, that the passenger list info
is very suspicious — in our pursuit of the truth. So perhaps some of us
have been too harsh in dismissing them as disruptive. After all, this is a very
emotional debate, and the future of the world DOES depend on its outcome. This emotionalism has spilled over into other principle schisms within the
9/11 skeptics movement. In my clumsy attempts to try and deduce the real story,
I’ve received some of it myself, with the controversial Phil Jayhan (who
lately has been saying he is receiving messages from God) accusing me of taking
money from the government as well as not caring about the people who died on
9/11. More recently I have been swept into a public roasting by Holmgren and the
no-plane gang of 9/11 personality Karl Schwarz in which neither side has exactly
distinguished itself by polite debating tactics. The Holmgren gang has torched
Schwarz for specific inaccuracies in his very public attempts to get New York
state law enforcement officials to bring legal action against the government
for wrongful deaths in the 9/11 attacks. But Schwarz has only feebly defended
himself by using empty ad hominem threats against the no-planers, and his apparently
inflated claims about himself and his “companies” have taken a major
hit with the publication of his background on Portland Indymedia (Karl Schwarz:
Unfortunate Son at < http://portland.indymedia.org/en/2005/06/318783.shtml
>). Again, the upshot of this nagfest was to only drive more people away from the
movement, disgusted with the level of personal insults obscuring the merits
of the discussion. The same kind of high-intensity emotion has been embarrassingly evident among
Internet radio listeners of late, as they have watched, with increasing confusion
and incredulity, the continuing attacks of WING-TV against several of the best
radio hosts on the web: Jeff Rense, Alex Jones, and Fintan Dunne. Miffed that they have been snubbed by their more experienced and more accomplished
broadcasting competitors, WING-TV operators Victor Thorn and Lisa Guliani have
engaged an embarrassing juvenile tirade against three people who have perhaps
brought more people to realistic political consciousness via Web radio than
anybody else, especially with regard to 9/11. It’s very difficult for me to write these words, especially since Thorn
has published two of my books. More importantly, over the past year he had conducted
a string of timely and valuable interviews with some of the most respected voices
in the 9/11 skeptics movement, and at great personal sacrifice attempted to
shed some light on the decade-old Oklahoma City coverup. But since that attempt, Thorn and Guliani have ceased interviewing relevant
guests and gone on a deceptive and underhanded campaign to ridicule Rense, Jones,
and Dunne that culminated in them throwing underwear around their makeshift
TV set and holding up a Barbie-doll to the camera in a pathetic attempt to besmirch
the sexual proclivities of one of these radio competitors. Whatever credibility they may have had among many in the alternative news community
disappeared forever at that very moment. A quick scan of their WING-TV website reveals that they made whatever reputation
they had by castigating the competition. They started out with easy targets
like braindead radio host Mike Gallagher, then graduated to easy target Mike
Ruppert, whose blatant oil company propaganda and mutation from top 9/11 critic
into just another leftie gatekeeper news outlet has been noted with disappointment
by most facets of the genuine 9/11 skeptics movement. But most people get the feeling that if Rense or Jones or Dunne had merely
had them on their shows and let them pitch their own products, none of this
would have happened. So their so-called revealing exposés of Rense, Jones,
and the Genesis Communications Network, are little more than sour grapes at
not being able to crack the big time. That some of their criticisms are valid are beside the point. That Jones is
a bombastic and aggressive Texan with a keen sense of his own profitability
doesn’t diminish his many achievements in exposing many current events
that need to be exposed. That Rense dabbles in arcane topics like UFOs doesn’t
negate the formidable political guests he’s had on his show, nor does
his continuing efforts to make clear the evils of Zionism are not perpetrated
by all Jews nor all Christians. That the owner of the Genesis network, Ted Anderson, makes money by selling
gold doesn’t make him an agent of the Illuminati. Fact is, Genesis, with
Rense, Jones and Jack Blood leading the way, provides a news service to the
American people that is unmatched for relevance across the media spectrum. Which brings us to another point about Thorn. His little booklet titled “Christ
Killers.” Thorn’s decision to align himself with the hardcore Christian right opens
him up to legitimate charges of anti-Semitism. Now I know some of you must be laughing about me using that term, since I have
been branded with it myself. Let me make this clear. Jews are human beings,
just like everybody else. The fact that many — or even most — of
them have chosen to believe the lies told in the Talmud that they are the Chosen
are better than everybody is certainly despicable and ridiculous, but no worse
than the way Catholics feel about themselves as the only true church, or Muslims
as the only true religion, or Hindus being the fathers of us all. It’s
all hateful BS, and a movement among the Jews is growing that Zionism hurts
them as much as it hurts everybody else. So when I say somebody is anti-Semitic, you can count on it as being true,
and not the same attempt at political intimidation as it is when used by fascist
bozos like Abe Foxman, Jerry Falwell, or Richard Perle. After all, I’m the guy who doesn’t believe the Germans gassed anyone
during World War II (because Eisenhower never mentioned it) and that Israel
is an illegal state that should not be allowed to exist because it is simply
a mechanism for crime engineered by the Illuminati. Does that mean I hate Jews?
No it doesn’t. Because I don’t. Though I believe that rich Zionist
Jews were right at the center of the 9/11 scam and are guilty of treason and
mass murder, I believe that Jews hold the key to both the destabilization of
the Middle East by Israel and the great 9/11 coverup, because they have the
insights and the connections to get to the bottom of both deceptions in the
name of honesty and humanity. Whether they will or not remains to be seen. But the key to accomplishing this
incredible feat which is so essential to the continued survival of human society
depends both on Jews rejecting the notion that they are superior to other tribes
of homo sapiens on the basis of how they have been misled by their evil holy
men, and also on non-Jews abandoning the perception by that Jews are out to
enslave them because that is what is written in the Talmud. Both of these things must happen. Both of these things will happen, when people
finally realize the real hate crimes are written in the world’s holy books
for the purpose of pitting one neighbor against another in the name of profit. This needless arguments are typical of what has happened to the 9/11 skeptics
movement. It has been betrayed by people more interested in their own financial
fortunes than in unearthing the truth. The truth is that we all make mistakes, we all believe things that with further
study we eventually learn are lies, and we all like to condescend to people
who don’t share our particular ideas about what is happening. This is what I meant when I said at the beginning of this screed that honesty
is a tricky business. By revealing all these petty grievances, I have probably
retarded the search for 9/11 truth more than illuminated it, simply because
of the number of people who have not read this story to this point, and abandoned
it for some other activity they think is more rewarding. But you don’t solve a problem by skirting its most contentious aspects.
We must muddle through them, no matter how complicated or enigmatic they become. In the case with honesty and the truth, if you don’t persevere, and seek
it without involving your ego in its discovery, you’ll never find it.
So those who didn’t stick around for the end of this story have missed
the best part. Among the thousands of e-mails I try to comprehend came this gem the other
day from someone I seldom hear from, Christopher Brown. Dissatisfied with what was available in the way of 9/11 sites, Chris constructed
his own site, and while it isn’t quite accurate throughout (everybody
gets bogged down in the debate about the temperature necessary to melt or buckle
steel), it nevertheless contains two of the most pertinent modules available
on the subject of the massacre at the World Trade Center. The site is located at http://algoxy.com/psych/9-11 scenario.html , but let
me synopsize the two parts I consider the most evocative. If you can read these
two little stories and still believe the government’s story about what
happened on 9/11, than you are either learning disabled or on the payroll of
the oinks orchestrating the coverup. Although there is no supporting link in his narrative, Brown theorizes in the
section titled “How the WTC Was Secretly Demolished on 9-11-01”
that the thick coatings on the rebar used on the cast concrete support core
and foundation were actually made of the plastic explosive C4. “This would put enough explosive force in direct contact with the most
concrete at high enough pressures and enable the instantaneous structural collapse
of each floor consecutively to the ground that we saw, as well as the resulting
particulate,” Brown writes. “This was technology invented in the Cold War to make self-destruct missile
silos and submarine bases, perfect for preplanned demolition. The C4 protected
the steel from corrosion before the sea water was evacuated by the incoming
concrete into the forms. The C4 was encapsulated in the concrete and its 10
year average shelf life extended by many times.” On to the second story, which Brown clipped from the Danish website: < http://jfk2wtc.tripod.com/
> [1] Here’s the excerpt: Mike told his co-worker to call upstairs to their Assistant Chief Engineer
and find out if everything was all right. His co-worker made the call and reported
back to Mike that he was told that the Assistant Chief did not know what happened
but that the whole building seemed to shake and there was a loud explosion.
They had been told to stay where they were and "sit tight" until the
Assistant Chief got back to them. ............... The two decided to ascend the stairs to the C level, to a small machine shop
where Vito Deleo and David Williams were supposed to be working. When the two
arrived at the C level, they found the machine shop gone. "There was nothing there but rubble" Mike said. "We’re
talking about a 50 ton hydraulic press - gone!" The two began yelling for
their co-workers, but there was no answer. They saw a perfect line of smoke
streaming through the air. "You could stand here," he said, "and
two inches over you couldn't breathe. We couldn't see through the smoke so we
started screaming." But there was still no answer. ........ The two made their way to the parking garage, but found that it, too, was gone.
‘There were no walls, there was rubble on the floor, and you can't see
anything’ he said No walls, NO WALLS!!! Those were steel reinforced concrete walls, the centralized
rebar of the walls coated with C4 removed the walls completely. The surviving
engineers were protected by the efficiency of the blast which pulverized the
concrete and filled the air with dust and high heat, floating the particles
at the top of the room. Gives you a new perspective on the comment by WTC landlord Larry Silverstein
to “pull it,” doesn’t it? And it takes the planes/no planes
brouhaha right out of the equation. Who cares what flew into the towers, or
what radio show has what guest on his show, when the towers were built to be
demolished, and blown up at their bases? We can figure out the plane thing, if we like, during the treason and mass
murder trials of Bush, Cheney, and thousands of others. Agents provocateur? We can easily identify the shams posted by establishment
shills such as Chertoff in Popular Mechanics, Jasper in the New American, and
Shermer in Scientific American, or by other Zionist gatekeepers such as Amy
Goodman and Noam Chomsky who refuse to address central questions about 9/11,
the Iraq war, and Israel’s extermination of the Palestinians and infiltration
of the U.S. government. But inside the 9/11 skeptics movement itself I cannot tell if anyone is deliberately
trying to deceive or obfuscate (except for Michael Elliott of 911review.org,
who has suddenly disappeared, leaving a trail of debts and broken promises). What I do see is people pursuing their objectives so ardently (and I myself
am not immune from this) that they castigate competing theories as government
subterfuge. When combined with the frustration of trying to defog government
smokescreens, and competing theories that disagree with their own, fireworks
follow. And they don’t help the movement. In fact, they play right into
the hands of those who engineered the coverup. The object of the 9/11 skeptics movement is not to gain personal fame and fortune,
nor to disparage those who are not as expert as others in knowing all the trivial
details of every aspect of the event. It is perhaps a legitimate exercise to point out those who are deliberately
trying to impede or distort a gathering of the facts. But identifying this activity
must be weighed against the higher goal of inspiring a majority of Americans
to recognize the capital crimes of their leaders. After all, even Mike Ruppert,
before he revealed himself as an oil company shill, was of great value to the
movement. The object, ultimately, is to identify the true perpetrators of the greatest
crime in American history, and perhaps on an even higher level, to prevent the
world from being destroyed by rich and cunning white men who seek to profit
from fomenting wars all over the world. We need to stop the bickering, and press on in pursuit of the evidence, wherever
it leads. Only then can we truly say we have led and are leading honest lives. John Kaminski < skylax@comcast.net > is a writer who lives on the Gulf
