Update on the “9-11 Truth” Movement. Folks, 25 years ago, only 30 – 40% of Americans believed the JFK assassination was an ‘INSIDE JOB’. Now it’s ~ 70 – 75% depending on how the question’s worded. We got lied into the Spanish American War, WWI, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, & countless other military actions most of us can’t remember. With a “death bed confession”, or some other breakthrough, I bet that by 2025, at least half of us will believe the real truth about “9-11”, & by 2050, it’ll be at least 70%. It was an INSIDE JOB.
Both my friends Russ & Mike, have spoken at the S/E before, on the subject of the "9-11' tragedy, & the question of whether it was an Inside Job. The subject is so vast & broad, & involves so many aspects & facets, there's no way to simply convey an adequate list of important points in the controversy, nor will I attempt to do so. Dozens, perhaps scores of books have been written on the subject, which has taken on the "vibe" of the real search for truth in the JFK assassination. There were hundreds of "loose ends", contradicting details & unanswered questions in that sad incident; & the same goes for the destruction & death of 9-11.
Mike Shoen started by rehashing just a few of the major flaws in Government's four (total B/S) reports:
1) Not one but three giant buildings (# 1, 2 & 7), "fall into their own footprint". The chance of one such building, of such immense size, falling down so perfectly, is almost impossible in nature; Such physical destruction on such a grand scale, with such precision, only happens as a result of a planned demolition. The chance of 2 buildings falling down this way, on the same day is preposterous. The fact that 3 buildings fell in this exact manner, right next to each other, hours apart, is an indictment of profound proportions.
2) Debris from the Twin Towers was found 400 - 700 feet away, laterally, embedded in surrounding buildings. This would be impossible w/o the force of planned & planted explosives thrusting that material outward. Gravity is a downward phenomena, not lateral!
3) The gov't's own story claims that the highest temperatures reached in the burning towers was only half that required to melt steel, but we have reports of molten metal in the basement of the buildings for weeks after the "attack"!
4) Security for the towers was run by Marvin Bush, the lying coward W's brother, & Wirt (Wurt?) D. Walker, their cousin. The buildings were "locked down" from the prior Thursday afternoon, until Monday the day before the attacks. When workers arrived on that Monday for work, a # reported that their was 1 - 32nd to 1-16th of an inch of dust, on every surface in their individual offices, & even some hallways & meeting rooms. Where did this dust come from? Possibly the drilling of hundreds of holes, & the removal of significant wall & ceiling material, in order to plant & place explosives?
5) Over 100 "first responders" reported hearing, & some even being "physically blown back...into walls & doorways" by, a series of explosions, ~ 15 & 45 minutes before each tower (1 & 2), fell. This testimony is backed up by seismic evidence.
Russ Wittenberg co-wrote (with Eric Huffschmidt), the first book on the subject, "Painful Questions: an Analysis of the September 1th Attack". But he purposely got no credit, for fear of reprisal when he was still a commercial pilot. Earlier in his career, he flew 2 the 4 planes involved in the 'attack'. He's an expert on the aeronautical engineering aspects of the tragedy.
Russ reminded us that "the first casualty of war is always the truth". He believes that the Government's fraudulent reports about '9-11', like the Warren Commission Report (of the JFK assassination), "was a total whitewash"! Before giving some specific examples, he reminded us that the gov't lies to us about all kinds of important issues, & has done so for decades, especially when it involves provocation to war.
We were lied into the Spanish American War, WWI, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, & countless other military actions. We covered up the attack on the USS Liberty, which was blown up by Israeli planes in the Mediterranean Sea (disguised as Egyptians), in the 60's, in a failed attempt to get America to go to war with Israel's enemies.
"Operation Northwoods" was a plan to blow US commercial planes out of the sky, full of passengers, in order to blame it on Castro. JFK quashed the idea; This is one of the reasons given for his possible assassination: JFK was "Bad for Biz", the Business of killing & selling arms, by defense contractors & their benefactors.
Russ feels that the reason for 9-11 as an Inside Job, lies at the feet of the real problem in US foreign policy today: Our blind allegiance to Israel. Because our foreign policy is terribly controlled by Israeli interests, AIPAC in particular, we dance to the tune of Israel's desires. The so-called "attacks" of 9-11 were solely for the purpose of getting America into war in the middle east, with Muslim nations, to help Israel more easily defeat their Islamic enemies.
Russ was a pilot for most of his adult life. He was a US Air Force pilot involved in the "Bay of Pigs" incident. After leaving the service, he worked for decades as a commercial pilot. It's just impossible here to go into the math & science on which he bases his conclusions, but suffice it to say that "those (3) planes, (that hit the 3 buildings on 9-11), could not have performed as reported, with the trajectory given in the gov't reports, even if Chuck Yeager were flying them! They'd have simply stalled out, or broken up, before hitting the intended targets!" Some other huge problems with the gov't reports:
1) Our gov't couldn't keep these so-called "19 Arabs with box cutters", off the 4 planes, but within a few hours of the attacks, they released a complete list of all 19 "hijackers"!! John Ebelhare, who spent 32 years working for United Airlines, was in the audience. He said that it's physically impossible for an airline to accurately verify a passenger log in such short a time. Furthermore, there are various credible reports that at least 4, & some say as many as 7 or the so-called 19, are alive & well. At least one, possibly two, have evidently been interviewed on the Al-Jazera network!
2) Every plane crash leaves identifiable debris. But none was found at the Pentagon to back up the gov't story about the commercial plane that supposedly hit the building. That's because it was not a commercial plane, but a gov't missile!
3) The Shanksville, Ohio coroner said he's never seen a plane crash with no DNA evidence, but there was none at that site! Nor was there any of the typical debris that you'd find in any other plane crash: lots of busted up luggage. There was none. Because the commercial plane (UA #93), that supposedly crashed there, never got there. It was another, faked up plane, of some sort, or a missile. And all those stories about passengers on the 4 planes calling relatives, especially the "Let's Roll" citizen commandos, was total B/S also: Cel phones don't work well, if at all on fast planes at high altitudes.
There was just too much detail provided by Russ & Mike, to really give it a thorough review here. Mike gave us a concise but brief bibliography for future reference. If you're interested in the subject, just let me know & I'll get it to you.
If you still can't allow yourself to "take off the blinders", & at least question the fact that such a horrible incident as 9-11, could really be pulled off by our own gov't, vs. our own people, then try to see it this way for just a moment:
"19 Arabs with Box cutters Outfox World's Greatest Air Force!" Folks, that only happens in Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone or Bruce Willis movies. It doesn't happen in reality. If the "bad guys" were smart enough & efficient enough to kill JFK, & steal the presidential elections of Y2K & 2004, then aren't they bad enough to pull off 9-11? Hmmmmmmmmmm?
