Fellow Advocates:

 Thank you for making Day 11 another eye-opening day!  One caller had this to report:

“Called all three today – ladies at Reyna and Rivera’s offices were very receptive to the news about Building 7… None of the three had even heard of Building 7 before this calling campaign.  I did my best to inform – got some “wow” responses!”

9/11 Reconstruction: Mental Before Physical

March 30, 2010

By Joel S Hirshhorn   source: Blog Critics   March 30, 2010

The failure to rebuild the World Trade Center site in Manhattan has received endless attention, but public anger about this failed reconstruction should not been seen as negatively as it is. After all, mental reconstruction also has not been successful and is surely more needed, with too many Americans still accepting the official government story about 9/11. This, despite a huge amount of compelling evidence that elements of the US government played some role, despite a very large, active 9/11 truth movement, and despite an impressive number of highly credible people demanding a new investigation, as documented at patriotsquestion911.com.

In the recent Angus Reid Public Opinion survey of a representative national sample of American adults, 62 per cent of respondents disagree with the view that the “Sept. 11 incident was a big fabrication as a pretext for the campaign against terrorism and a prelude for staging an invasion against Afghanistan.” But 26 per cent of respondents agree with this notion, with a far more impressive 45 percent of Democrats and 34 percent of Independents agreeing, versus 20 percent of Republicans. And 12 per cent are undecided.

In sum, about 100 million Americans seem to question or find fault with the official story, far from a trivial number and far too many to dismiss as conspiracy nuts and part of the lunatic fringe. That the mainstream media refuses to acknowledge this kind of public sentiment reflects on their lack of courage to face the truth. This behavior does nothing to improve American democracy.

Karl Rove’s Bodyguards Allegedly Assault Peaceful, Sitting Protester at Book Signing

March 30, 2010

UPDATE #1: Above is another video from the recent attempt to arrest Karl Rove.

March 30, 2010

A familiar face, Jeremy Rothe Kushel is seen in this video being escorted out of a recent Karl Rove event. Others in the video, one appearing to be a veteran of the war of terror, were disgusted at the fact that Karl Rove can ignore Congress, not be arrested, and then make money signing books. The war of terror, based upon the easily investigated lies of 9/11, is responsible for over a million Iraqi deaths, countless Afghan and Pakistanis, along with 6,000 give or take American troops. That is why it is so important to understand what happened on 9/11. And the information is out there.

CNN picked up on Karl Rove “being heckeled“ as well.

Former White House Chief of Staff Karl Rove was heckled and branded a ‘war criminal’ at a book signing in Beverly Hills, California, Monday night.

Rove, who served as senior advisor and deputy chief of staff to former President George W. Bush, was at the Saban Theater to discuss his new book, “Courage and Consequences: My Life as a Conservative in the Fight,” to an audience of about 100 people who paid up to $40 to hear him.
But the audience members were unable to get their copies of the book signed after Rove was shouted down and forced to leave the stage, reported CNN affiliate KCAL-TV.

Building What?! Day 11 (7 Days to Go!)

March 29, 2010

 March 29, 2010

Fellow Advocates:

Thank you for sticking with it and making it easy for the City Council to listen to us with your polite and focused manner! So far all of the offices have told us they were pleased with how we have been communicating our message. Rest assured they are taking notice of what we have to say.

As we head into the final seven days of our campaign, we will be contacting some key council members whose support we will be counting on to make the City Council address Building 7, The Salomon Brothers building. So please be sure to continue what you are doing and make the effort end with a crescendo.

If you haven’t gotten involved yet, please consider doing so. One participant had this to say on Friday: “I’m pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to make a few simple calls to the Council Members. Their aides seem friendly and sincere, and are telling me they’re getting over 100 calls per day. They all promise that the Members will be looking into WTC 7. It feels good to help spread the word.”

This Week in 9/11 (March 22 – March 28)

March 28, 2010

March 28, 2010

A summary of news relating to 9/11/01 - For the week of March 22 through March 28, 2010. (Last week is here)

To many the week’s biggest news might have been the documents obtained by the ACLU, detailing many things including the words of John Ashcroft, Donald Rumsfeld, and George Tenent to the 9/11 Commission Chairmen to “not cross” a certain line of investigation. According to the specific document (or page 26 in the original PDF of documents at ACLU) :

There is, however, a line that the Commission should not cross — the line separating the Commission’s proper inquiry into the September 11, 2001 attacks from interference with the Government’s ability to safeguard the national security, including protection of Americans from future terrorist attacks. The Commission staffs proposed participation in questioning of detainees would cross that line.

Of course that is only a small piece of the withholdings by officials regarding 9/11, but many can use this in specific discussions of the whitewash known as the 9/11 Commission Report and its improper investigation to skeptics. 

 Another tape allegedly from Bin Laden made headlines across the U.S.. However none of the headlines from the mainstream “corp-press” mentioned the fact that Bin Laden has been reported dead by many media outlets:

9-11 Truth Makes HUGE Appearance at Los Angeles Anti-War March

March 28, 2010

source: We Are Change LA     March 28, 2010

WeAreChangeLA brought the 9-11 Truth message to the Anti-War march in Los Angeles in a HUGE way. We brought our four massive 2-sided blue banners. These babies are so big, it takes five of us to carry one. We showed up early and it paid off, because we got a good spot up front.Right off the bat, a young representative from the local chapter of ANSWER, the group that organized this Anti-War demonstration, approached us and told us that we would have to take our banners to the back of the march. Bruno Bruhwiler from WeAreChangeLA immediately confronted him about trying to kick us to the back of the bus. The young man said that ANSWER has the permit for the march, and they can tell us what to do. Bruno reminded him that they do not have a permit to trespass on our Freedom of Speech, and went on to advise the young man to go back and tell his team that they do not want to incur the liability for trespassing on our First Amendment Rights. He walked away after warning us that we would have to deal with the Police.

The Great 9/11 Insurance Bonanza

March 28, 2010

By Gene Cappa   source: Op Ed News   March 28, 2010

“An Insurance Policy that had been set up for the WTC Complex only weeks before the Twin Towers went down” says Investigative Journalist Laurence De Mello.

Larry Silverstein – “The Harder I Worked The Luckier I Became”

De Mello continues, “In 1980, Jewish real estate tycoon Silverstein, won a bid from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to construct 7 World Trade Center to the north of the WTC. Building 7 World Trade Center was situated above a (Con Ed) power substation, which imposed unique structural design constraints.”

When the building first opened in 1987, Silverstein had difficulties attracting tenants. In 1988, Salomon Brothers signed a long-term lease, and became the main tenants of the building.

But this building was also losing money. Silverstein was interested in acquiring the entire World Trade Center complex, and put in a bid when the Port Authority put it up for lease in 2000. (he had waited over 20 years for this!).

WikiLeaks to Release Video of Civilians, Journalists Being Murdered in Airstrike

March 28, 2010

This video was published to YouTube on March 26, 2010, clipped from Russia Today. 

By Stephen Webster  source: Raw Story   March 28, 2010

Whistleblower Web site WikiLeaks is planning to release a video that reveals what it’s calling a Pentagon “cover-up” of an incident in which numerous civilians and journalists were murdered in an airstrike, according to a recent media advisory.

The video will be released on April 5 at the National Press Club, the group said.

They also noted their members have recently been tailed by individuals under State Department diplomatic immunity, and that “one related person was detained for 22 hours” while authorities seized computer equipment.

The War on WikiLeaks and Why it Matters

March 28, 2010

By Glenn Greenwald    source: Salon    March 28, 2010

A newly leaked CIA report prepared earlier this month (.pdf) analyzes how the U.S. Government can best manipulate public opinion in Germany and France — in order to ensure that those countries continue to fight in Afghanistan.  The Report celebrates the fact that the governments of those two nations continue to fight the war in defiance of overwhelming public opinion which opposes it — so much for all the recent veneration of “consent of the governed” — and it notes that this is possible due to lack of interest among their citizenry:   “Public Apathy Enables Leaders to Ignore Voters,” proclaims the title of one section. 

But the Report also cites the “fall of the Dutch Government over its troop commitment to Afghanistan” and worries that — particularly if the “bloody summer in Afghanistan” that many predict takes place — what happened to the Dutch will spread as a result of the “fragility of European support” for the war.  As the truly creepy Report title puts it, the CIA’s concern is:  “Why Counting on Apathy May Not Be Enough”:

The Report seeks to provide a back-up plan for “counting on apathy,” and provides ways that the U.S. Government can manipulate public opinion in these foreign countries.  It explains that French sympathy for Afghan refugees means that exploiting Afghan women as pro-war messengers would be effective, while Germans would be more vulnerable to a fear-mongering campaign (failure in Afghanistan means the Terrorists will get you).  The Report highlights the unique ability of Barack Obama to sell war to European populations (click on images to enlarge):

City to Sift Again for 9/11 Remains

March 27, 2010

We are close to 9 years after the fact. The victim’s families (that I know of)  did not push for this effort; the article states that families “received notice yesterday” of the “sifting operation.” Things I wonder:

  • Who is paying for this 1.4 million dollar contract?
  • Who issued the contract and who bid, along with who won the bidding, for the contract.
  • What tools will be used in the sifitng process?
  • Will there be multiple 3rd party witnesses to the sifting process?

source: Staten Island News    March 27, 2010

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — Families of 9/11 victims received notice yesterday afternoon that the city will conduct a three-month sifting operation for World Trade Center remains at the shuttered Fresh Kills landfill.

Work will begin on Friday.

“The city is opening a forensic mobile sifting platform at Fresh Kills in Staten Island to thoroughly evaluate the material, using the same techniques employed during the prior operation at the facility at 11 Water St. in Brooklyn,” states the e-mailed letter, sent by Nazli Parvizi, commissioner of the city Community Affairs Unit.

Some 844 cubic yards of WTC material was excavated over the past two years from the following areas in and around Ground Zero: N.Y. State Route 9A (West Street), Haul Road, Cedar Street, Washington Street, Vesey Street, the rooftop of Fiterman Hall and various subterranean structures, according to an attached memorandum written to Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg by Deputy Mayor for Operations Edward Skyler on Jan. 28.
