The poor children of today and tomorrow. Propaganda is hard at work to keep the gears of the “GLobal War of Terror” in working order. The Obama Administration, along with the Bush’s and Clinton’s, Bankers and Oiler’s, Intelligence agencies and more must continue the LIES OF SEPTEMBER THE 11th, 2001 in order for that to happen. The post below taken from the AP shows exactly how they will train the youth of tomorrow. By using Google Earth to hunt for terrorist’s they will remind the youth who were ” ..not even alive at the time of the attacks” of why they must support the endless war. It also means the surge of police abuses will continue along with corporate control of the individual. I suppose if you dont have your children out of public schools, now would be a good time. Remember to breathe when you read this article. -ed

NEW YORK — Former Mayor Rudy Giuliani joined Sept. 11 family members and college professors on Tuesday at a hotel blocks from the World Trade Center site to unveil a plan to teach middle and high school students about the 2001 terrorist attacks.
The 9/11 curriculum, believed to be the first comprehensive educational plan focusing on the attacks, is expected to be tested this year at schools in New York City, California, New Jersey, Alabama, Indiana, Illinois and Kansas.
It was developed with the help of educators by the Brick, N.J.-based Sept. 11 Education Trust, and was based on primary sources, archival footage and more than 70 interviews with witnesses, family members of victims and politicians, including Giuliani and U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, a New York senator at the time of the attacks.
The curriculum is taught through videos, lessons and interactive exercises, including one that requires students to use Google Earth software to map global terrorist activity.
One of the main goals is to help students entering middle and high school, who may been too young to have strong memories of the attacks, to develop a tangible connection to what happened.
“In a few years, we will be teaching students who were not even alive at the time of the attacks,” said Anthony Gardner, the executive director of the Sept. 11 Education Trust.
Giuliani said that the curriculum can help students to think critically about the attacks as both a historical event and one that shapes the present, noting the continued threat of terrorism and the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
