Today’s guest is Richard Gage, AIA and he is a San Francisco based architect and a member of the American Institute of Architects.
Also on today’s program, Erik Lawyer, a veteran firefighter with the City of Seattle and founder of the Firefighters for 9/11 Truth, a non-partisan association of firefighters who demand re-investigating the official 9/11 stories for the benefit of all the rescue workers who suffered injury and illnesses and died.
Jesse Ventura was on The View promoting his new book, “American Conspiracies“. Ventura has become very vocal about his concern for where his country is headed after 9/11. He compares 9/11 to the Gulf of Tonkin incident, which started the Vietnam War, and was later declassified as an event that essentially did not happen. Jesse is angry that 58,000 Americans and perhaps a million Vietnamese were killed in the Vietnam War for something that did not happen, and understandably so.
The fact that World Trade Center 7 fell at the speed that it did, without being hit by a plane is evidence enough to warrant a TRUE investigation into 9/11. Jesse focuses on this building as a red flag and rightfully so.
Thanks for coming to visit the site! I probably handed you a DVD or info packet today at the J.C. in Santa Rosa
The events of September 11th do still have an effect on us all today, and it is imperative that we know what happened to the full extent on 9/11/01. Thousands of people hit the streets every 11th of each month for years, doing what you saw me doing today. (See pictures from other cities here.) We are all very concerned about the events of 9/11/01. As Peter Phillips from S.S.U.’s Project Censored put it, “we are in a Truth Emergency.”
Washingtons Blog generally authors 1-2 articles per day. I am always amazed by the diversity in the article’s authored on the site. I think that Washingtons Blog does a good job of writing with balance and integrity. In other words, for those who do not yet see the full picture, the writings at Washingtons Blog offer a digestable format for opening the doors of truth….
The Taliban offered [in October 2001] to hand over Osama bin Laden to a neutral country if the US halted bombing … [the U.S. refused.]
The government apparently planned the Afghanistan war before 9/11 (see this and this).
And the government apparently could have killed Bin Laden in 2001 and AGAIN in 2007, but failed to do so.
In fact, starting right after 9/11 — at the latest — the goal has always been to create “regime change” and instability in Iraq, Iran, Syria, Libya, Sudan, Somalia, Lebanon and other countries. As American historian, investigative journalist and policy analyst Gareth Porter writes in the Asia Times:
Speaking at meeting in the House of Commons and later in a packed public meeting called by Reinvestigate 911, on Monday Cynthia McKinney endorsed the call for a genuinely independent investigation into the 9/11 attacks. The issue has become live again since President Obama cited 9/11 as the reason for escalating the war in Afghanistan and extending it into Pakistan, she said.
Tony Blair cited 9/11 as the event that made the subsequent wars possible when he supported calls for military action against Iran at his Chilcot appearance in February.
McKinney was the only person in Congress to ask questions about the many exercises which were being conducted by the Pentagon on the morning of the attacks. One was an anti-hijack exercise, which official sources put down to a bizarre coincidence. The existence of the anti-hijack exercise only came to light after the 9/11 Commission seized and reclaimed tapes which the Pentagon thought had been erased.
For 2 weeks during the Olympic Games, Darren and the brave men and woman of the Vancouver 911 Truth Society and WeAreChangeVancouver brought the message of 911 Truth to MILLIONS of people on National Olympic Broadcasts while risking abuse and assaults by drunken cowards,haters of free speech and paid operatives almost every single night.
According to the chief of Japans Democratic Party who says that the 9/11 hijackers are alive and that 9/11 was a complete hoax. Dr. David Ray Griffin is a professor and author who wrote The New Pearl Harbor Revisited and he says that he agrees; the World Trade Center was a hoax.
Nightline’s report on March 8 was focused on the phenomenon of the 9/11 Truth movement — who they are and why they think what they do. In order to talk to a wide number of people we visited the “Treason in America” conference in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania. Coming as it did on the heels of the shooting at the Pentagon, we asked several people about John Patrick Bedell, and we included in our story their vehement denials that the movement is linked to violence.
Coleen Rowley (who blogged about the conference and Nightline here) was approached for an interview by our producer and she agreed. We included in the story Rowley’s view that “the full truth” of what happened on 9/11 is not known, as well as a sequence that made it clear she was put off by the interviewer’s persistence.
(Please what this is in response to here, along with the ABC Nightline show in question)
In a sad commentary on the currently disintegrating state of “main stream media”, I found myself ambushed on Saturday, March 6th, just ten minutes after I arrived at a conference outside Philadelphia on “9-11, the Wars and Our Broken Constitution”.
When young, smiling female producer Katie Hinman identified herself as being with ABC and asked for an interview, I had only just arrived at the conference. So although I was a little surprised that the Nightline TV crew was there, I immediately consented to an interview before anyone had a chance to warn me that the TV show was trying to concoct a connection between the conference and the mentally ill young man who had been killed a few days before while shooting at Pentagon guards.
From the very first question Mr. Bury launched, it was clear, however, that he was not interested in the truth, and that I would not fare any better than someone who consents to go on Bill O’Reilly’s or Glenn Beck’s show.
In the interest of journalistic ethics, let me list a few of the departures from how a decent, ethical, objective journalist would have covered the story of this conference:
