More crap handed to the 9/11 families

Earlier today I happened to catch a live feed on CNN.com of House Speaker Pelosi and some family members of 9/11 victims holding a conference on the “Improving America’s Security Act” (aka, the 9/11 Commission Recommendations.) Already passed by both houses of Congress, it now needs approval from a conference committee before it can be sent to Bush and signed into law.

It about made me sick— listening to Spineless Speaker Pelosi, Commissioner Hamilton, et al spew nothing but CRAP about how important the victim’s families are: “this was the first piece of legislation passed by the new Congress”, the Commission recommendations will keep us from “being attacked by Jihadist forces.”

Surprisingly, Pelosi reminded everyone that without the families there would be no Commission.

Right you are, Nancy! So then why don’t you give them a REAL investigation and answer ALL of their questions?!

Ohhh I get it, 441 days after the attacks, after finally beating the Bush Administration’s attempts to stop the investigation from happening, answering 25% of the families’ questions is what you call honor? A whitewash investigation by a Commission overflowing with conflicts of interest? No family members on the Commission? Omitted eyewitness testimony? Changing stories by NORAD? Bush & Cheney’s private testimony TOGETHER, NOT under oath, NOT recorded, and NOT revealed to the public? Complete omission of the third building that fell in Manhattan?

Give me a break.

This press conference was nothing but a fear-mongering charade trying to bring the 9/11 mindset back into play and convince the public that the Democratic-controlled Congress is actually doing something. Telling even MORE lies on top of the thousands of existing lies?
Honor is not the word I’d choose.

FEAR FEAR FEAR
AL QAEDA
ATTACKED
HIJACKED
3,000 PEOPLE
BE AFRAID!

How about honoring the families with the TRUTH for a change?

Yesterday’s tragedy in Brazil reminds us how plane crashes usually work

This is what a plane crash normally looks like:

At Least 189 Dead in Brazil Air Crash

“…The TAM airlines Airbus-320 flight that originated in Porto Alegre in southern Brazil on Tuesday cleared the airport fence at the end of the runway and the busy highway but slammed into a gas station and a TAM building, causing an inferno. Temperatures reached 1,830 degrees inside the plane, and officials said there was no way passengers could have survived.

TAM Linhas Aereas SA said 186 were on the Airbus-320 – 162 passengers, 18 TAM employees and a crew of six – and officials said three bodies of people killed on the ground had been recovered. There were fears of more dead on the ground, with 14 others taken to hospitals, where their conditions were not known.

Ninety badly charred bodies, along with the flight data recorder, had been pulled from the wreckage by midmorning, firefighters said…”

Notice that despite the “inferno” there were still large pieces of wreckage.. bodies.. flight data recorder.. you get the idea.

This is what a plane crash does not look like:

This is the supposed crash site of United Flight 93 in Shanksville, PA on September 11th, 2001. Notice there are no pieces of the plane. No bodies. Teeny tiny hole in the ground. Nothing that resembles any crash site you’ve ever seen.

Ask yourself — are you being lied to?

Stop your life for 64 minutes and watch this.

WE.

Inspired by Arundhati Roy‘s “Come September” speech, this documentary was created.

It’s 64 minutes of music, life, death, war, peace, history, future, everything. It’ll knock you over… but when you get back up, you’ll be stronger than ever.

“Either way, change will come. It could be bloody, or it could be beautiful. It depends on us.”

Friday news clips

Ron Paul. No question.

I could write quite a bit about tonight’s Republican “debate” on CNN, but it’s after midnight and I’d like to get some sleep so I’ll try to contain myself.

Let’s just say that — as expected — the “debate” was basically a joke. It wasn’t even close to being a debate, it was a pathetic and staged Question & Answer session. Complete with planted question-posing-citizens and not even a speck of diversity in the audience. Ten old white men on the stage, watched by a crowd of expressionless white people.

The questions? Irrelevant. Predictable. Same as every election. Buzz words and fear tactics galore. Racist, sexist, ethnocentric cowards preaching their strongly held Pro-Life stances while at the same time emphasizing the need to wage preemptive war on “Islamic Extremists” who “worship death.” They talked about how great Freedom and Liberty is in this country as if our civil liberties still stand fully in tact. They reminded us that we still need to get “them” over there so they don’t get us over here. You remember 9/11 right? Giuliani just wants to make sure you don’t forget. Oh and also don’t forget— every human life is sacred (unless you’re in the Middle East, or gay) and evolution is a lie.

People are still swallowing this stuff? Do they really think that gays openly serving in the military is one of the most important issues facing our country right now? Come on Wolf Blitzer, ask them some real questions.

Okay okay, I said I wouldn’t write that much. Let’s get to the polls. The follow-up polls on CNN.com and MSNBC right now (midnight) show Ron Paul KICKING MAJOR ASS. Yet he continues to be totally ignored by the so-called “political analysts” as has been the case this entire time. You wouldn’t even know he was there tonight if you went only by their commentary. But if you look at the voting results, you’ll get a whole different story.

CNN has Ron Paul winning the debate with 53% of the votes, knowing the most about the issues, having the best one-liner/comeback, and more.

MSNBC has Paul “standing out from the pack” with 63% of the votes (Romney trailing in 2nd place with a lousy 10%.) He is also sweeping the second question, “Showing the most leadership qualities” with 60% (2nd place is Romney with 11%.) But wait, there’s more! Who is the “most convincing candidate” you wonder? Why, that’d be Ron Paul with 62% of the votes! I’m sensing a trend here…

Poor Giuliani is not faring very well at all, despite the pundits’ state-of-denial. I hate to give the general public any credit anymore because I am always left terribly disappointed, but it’s almost as if people are realizing he was in on 9/11 and are finally getting pissed about it. They might even know that Giuliani knew since the ’93 WTC bombing that the FDNY’s radios didn’t work inside steel buildings, but wanted to uphold his Motorola contract so he kept his mouth shut and 343 firefighters died (as a result of not being able to hear the evacuation orders.) Not to mention that he allowed the largest crime scene in American history to be quickly scooped up and sold as scrap while victims were still being searched for in the rubble and some were eventually turned into pothole filling. But enough about bloody-handed Giuliani.

This country needs Ron Paul NOW. As I said to my friend tonight, imagine his popularity once people realize he’s already taken legislative steps to abolish the Federal Income Tax!

Taking Truth to the Suburbs

This Memorial Day, dedicated members of Columbus911Truth.org participated in the Powell Parade, which moved through the main streets of downtown Powell, an upper class suburb north of Columbus.

Let us never tolerate outrageous conspiracy theoriesThis is a village that donated over three times more to Republicans than Democrats in the 2004 elections. The same Powell that Bush visited a year ago to help with a DeWine fund raiser. And yes, Republican Congressman Pat Tiberi was in the parade as well. Did I mention it’s a predominately Republican town??

The highlight of our display was a seven foot tall reproduction of the 9/11 Commission Report, complete with the required holes throughout, some VERY LARGE (e.g. two planes – three buildings = one has to wonder.)

The book rode in the bed of a pickup that was adorned with banners all around. The left and right sides featured Bush’s very fitting quote:

“We must speak the truth about terror. Let us never tolerate outrageous conspiracy theories concerning the attacks of September the 11th.”

You will know the truth and the TRUTH will set you free.The back banner read:

“You will know the truth and the TRUTH will set you free. – John 8:32.”

The front banner read:

“9/11 Truth will end this war.”

The truck/display was preceded by:

“Oh say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave? O’er the land of the free? And the home of the brave?”

Oh say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave? O'er the land of the free? And the home of the brave?Obviously we weren’t short on banners. They were all made possible by a generous donation from a 9/11 Truther in Toledo, along with an amazing deal given to us by Signs Columbus. The materials used to build the Commission Report were paid for by another generous donation from a member of our own group. (I would love to name these two individuals, but I won’t until I get their permission.) And of course, the book didn’t build itself— the design and physical labor was provided by Aaron, Sherry, myself, and lots of Red Bull!

There was only a little bit of trouble in the beginning before the parade started. The main organizer came over to let us know a veteran had voiced concern over our being there. She said we couldn’t include anything anti-war (don’t think too hard about the lack of logic of that request.) While Sherry talked with the organizer about our already-agreed-upon involvement (we had approved registration like everyone else) and our refusal to take ourselves out of the lineup, a man walking by with his little Boy Scout son overheard the conversation. He stopped and said “Censorship? No, let them stay!” It was wonderful to see such support, he even went so far as to suggest something about a court order. Fortunately it didn’t get that far and we were able to clear up the concern.

9/11 Truth will end this war.Along the parade route we passed out as many flyers, DVDs, CDs, and Deception Dollars as we could, although the pace was faster than expected (intentional or not?) The crowd was for the most part very accepting, with only a few strongly opposed to our presence. One man said to me “can I have a few more flyers? So I can throw them all away? You people disgust me, you shouldn’t even be here.” Little does he know— comments like that are easily overshadowed and outnumbered by many grateful thumbs up and “I’m with ya!”

Over all, our group was extremely satisfied and motivated by our efforts and we definitely look forward to doing more parades in the future. This was only the beginning of a very active summer!

We really think all 9/11 Truth groups should be doing this. It’s a great way to work yourselves into the community and engage hundreds of people in a short amount of time. Our work (and ultimate success) really depends on involving ourselves in the many small communities that make up our nation.

We will win this.

For all of those killed and wounded in NYC and DC, all of the soldiers killed and wounded in Iraq and Afghanistan, and all the innocent civilians that have been killed or wounded as a result of this horrific lie — Columbus911Truth.org honors you.

Columbus 9/11 Truth trip to Ann Arbor

Yesterday, four members of Columbus 9/11 Truth, including 3 OSU Alumni and one current OSU student, traveled 3.5 hours up to Ann Arbor, to the forbidden campus of the University of Michigan. We attended Ann Arbor 9/11 Truth‘s event, “Truth Strikes Back” which included a film festival, talks by Kevin Ryan, Dr. Kevin Barrett, and a presentation by William Rodriguez.

Kevin RyanKevin Ryan is former Site Manager for Environmental Health Laboratories, a division of Underwriters Laboratories (UL), the company that certified the steel components used in the construction of the World Trade Center towers. Ryan, a Chemist and laboratory manager, was fired by UL in 2004 for publicly questioning the report being drafted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) on their World Trade Center investigation.

Kevin BarrettAlso present was Dr. Kevin Barrett, a Lecturer at the University of Wisconsin, the founder of MUJCA (Muslim Jewish Christian Alliance), and a member of Scholars for 9/11 Truth.

Ann Arbor 9/11 Truth intended to hold a debate, with Barrett & Ryan going against defenders of the government’s official story of 9/11 put forth by the 9/11 Commission. They sent invitations/requests to Univ. of Michigan physics professors, engineering professors, and the “Young Americans for Freedom” group but none would come to defend the 9/11 Commission Report.

William RodriguezThe last part of the event was an extremely moving presentation by William Rodriguez, a janitor who worked at the North Tower of the World Trade Center for 20 years.

By stroke of luck or fate, he was late for work that day and was still in the basement when the plane hit, rather than being at the top where he would’ve been any other day. He saved countless lives, including rescuing two men trapped in a basement elevator, a co-worker burned extensively by the first explosion in the basement, confused office workers on upper floors who didn’t know how to get to the stairs, and most notably by leading firemen up the stairwells and unlocking the fire doors with his master key. He is thought by many to be the last man out, surviving the collapse by diving under a firetruck and hiding his face under his shirt to avoid being suffocated by the ensuing dust that followed.

After fighting alongside many others, including fellow survivors and families of the victims, for an official investigation by the government, he testified before the 9/11 Commission. His story includes hearing multiple explosions inside the building, in the basement and upper levels, both before and after the plane hit. His testimony was held behind closed doors and was completely omitted from the final report. He has fought for fellow survivors and the victim’s families since day one— wanting a new, open, independent, and inclusive investigation. If anyone is hesitant to doubt the official story before hearing him, they wouldn’t be afterwards.

It was an honor and a privilege to meet Mr. Rodriguez and we hope to bring him to Columbus soon so others may have the experience of hearing his story.
