Proof that 9/11 Truthers Are Dangerous


Most Americans don't know what kind of people 9/11 truthers really are. So they can't figure out whether or not they are dangerous.

Below is a list of people who question what our Government has said about 9/11.

The list proves - once and for all - that people who question 9/11 are dangerous.

Email this list to everyone you know, to prove to them that 9/11 truthers are all dangerous nut cases.

Senior intelligence officers:
  • Former military analyst and famed whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg said that the case of a certain 9/11 whistleblower is "far more explosive than the Pentagon Papers". He also said that the government is ordering the media to cover up her allegations about 9/11. And he said that some of the claims concerning government involvement in 9/11 are credible, that "very serious questions have been raised about what they [U.S. government officials] knew beforehand and how much involvement there might have been", that engineering 9/11 would not be humanly or psychologically beyond the scope of the current administration, and that there's enough evidence to justify a new, "hard-hitting" investigation into 9/11 with subpoenas and testimony taken under oath (see this and this).
  • A 27-year CIA veteran, who chaired National Intelligence Estimates and personally delivered intelligence briefings to Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush, their Vice Presidents, Secretaries of State, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and many other senior government officials (Raymond McGovern) said “I think at simplest terms, there’s a cover-up. The 9/11 Report is a joke”, and is open to the possibility that 9/11 was an inside job.
  • A decorated 20-year CIA veteran, who Pulitzer-Prize winning investigative reporter Seymour Hersh called "perhaps the best on-the-ground field officer in the Middle East”, and whose astounding career formed the script for the Academy Award winning motion picture Syriana (Robert Baer) said that "the evidence points at" 9/11 having had aspects of being an inside job
  • Professor of History and International Relations, University of Maryland. Former Executive Assistant to the Director of the National Security Agency, former military attaché in China, with a 21-year career in U.S. Army Intelligence (Major John M. Newman, PhD, U.S. Army) questions the government's version of the events of 9/11.
Congressmen:

  • Former U.S. Republican Congressman and senior member of the House Armed Services Committee, and who served six years as the Chairman of the Military Research and Development Subcommittee Curt Weldon has shown that the U.S. tracked hijackers before 9/11, is open to hearing information about explosives in the Twin Towers, and is open to the possibility that 9/11 was an inside job

9/11 Commissioners:

  • And the Senior Counsel to the 9/11 Commission (John Farmer) - who led the 9/11 staff's inquiry - recently said "At some level of the government, at some point in time...there was an agreement not to tell the truth about what happened". He also said "I was shocked at how different the truth was from the way it was described .... The tapes told a radically different story from what had been told to us and the public for two years.... This is not spin. This is not true."
Other government officials:
  • Former Deputy Secretary for Intelligence and Warning under Nixon, Ford, and Carter (Morton Goulder), former Deputy Director to the White House Task Force on Terrorism (Edward L. Peck), and former US Department of State Foreign Service Officer (J. Michael Springmann), as well as a who's who of liberals and independents) jointly call for a new investigation into 9/11
  • Former Federal Prosecutor, Office of Special Investigations, U.S. Department of Justice under Presidents Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan; former U.S. Army Intelligence officer, and currently a widely-sought media commentator on terrorism and intelligence services (John Loftus) says "The information provided by European intelligence services prior to 9/11 was so extensive that it is no longer possible for either the CIA or FBI to assert a defense of incompetence."
  • President of the U.S. Air Force Accident Investigation Board, who also served as Pentagon Weapons Requirement Officer and as a member of the Pentagon's Quadrennial Defense Review, and who was awarded Distinguished Flying Crosses for Heroism, four Air Medals, four Meritorious Service Medals, and nine Aerial Achievement Medals (Lt. Col. Jeff Latas) is a member of a group which doubts the government's version of 9/11
  • Director of the U.S. "Star Wars" space defense program in both Republican and Democratic administrations, who was a senior air force colonel who flew 101 combat missions (Col. Robert Bowman) stated: "If our government had merely [done] nothing, and I say that as an old interceptor pilot—I know the drill, I know what it takes, I know how long it takes, I know what the procedures are, I know what they were, and I know what they’ve changed them to—if our government had merely done nothing, and allowed normal procedures to happen on that morning of 9/11, the Twin Towers would still be standing and thousands of dead Americans would still be alive. [T]hat is treason!"
Numerous other politicians, judges, legal scholars, and attorneys also question at least some aspects of the government's version of 9/11.

  1. The 9/11 report is about as credible as the Warren Commission. Notice how nobody believes the Warren Commission report anymore

  2. Anything coming from a currently serving political official, or anything which could come from a new official 9/11 inquiry, would be compromised by the wish for that official to retain his position, or for those panel members to be formed of less than objective types.

    I am afraid that 9/11 will remain as a founding myth for the new war state. The truth shall remain rather evident to those who look at the thing logically, but they are in the minority. Most people are swayed by rhetoric and image-making, and our media have a lot of practice in delivering the goods to whoever pays them for the effect.

    These events have forced upon some thinkers the most serious of questions. Those who see this as a fight for dwindling oil resources in the mideast, in an era when peak oil has arrived, while large Asian nations have suddenly become wealthy enough to need a lot of it, have perhaps the right answer for why 9/11 happened, and why it had to be an inside job.

    This rhetoric is supported by more facts than the bin Laden hypothesis, especially when you consider the explosives involved in the stunt. There are are those who do not wish to investigate this plot hole at all, not even the saving hypothesis that mideasterners infiltrated the building to plant them. Evidently, this would be too costly an admission of neglect by important people. But it would also lead down some alleys which might implicate those who seek to get away with the crime.

    It's funny therefore, and perhaps instructive, that the implosions are always defined as something else, as merely collapse. Therein must lie some important path to knowledge, blocked by a lot of posturing. The path will not be unblocked in our lifetimes, I believe.

    We will all move on, and live with the consequences of our actions and inactions. The war in the mideast began seven years ago, the Afghan war earlier. Already whole nations we knew nothing about have been demonized and resurrected as successes of our policies, while our oil companies hold the contracts to their oil. Even though the conditions of natives are not so good - nor are ours - mission has been accomplished. The wedge (in every sense) has been pounded into place.

    Lower Manhattan will morph into something else. There will probably never be anything like the twin towers again, just some tawdry tower worthy of a third world nouveau riche regime. It will not look or be American, because it is not American to be a crybaby. Less and less will look or be American. And that will not be good for us Americans, strangers in our own country pretty soon, not racially so much as attitude-wise. The optimism and hopefulness is being systematically crushed, and the spectacle of 9/11 was simply the curtain-raiser on that sort of thing.

    I smile the weary smile of reason, borrowing it from the French Enlightenment, but I wear it with a difference. I enjoy the humor of cynicism. To one who thinks, the world is a comedy. I try not to feel too much, for then it would be tragedy. Play the fool, but do not be the fool. Sometimes, one can feel that Hamlet is the only fictional character who would have understood today's dilemma. If one is an important and powerful person who knows what happened and who hates what happened, it must be quite a psychological burden. I assume there are such people, and I assume they are less than enthusiastic about the new regime. I wonder what they will do. I know that I will do nothing, but then I am not an important person.

  3. A person who does not doubt the official version of 9/11 is so afraid of the possibility that our own government was involved in the murder of several thousand US citizens. It really is not "the government", but a group of people that have enough power to conceive and caarry out such a heinous crime.

  4. Instead of publishing 600 pages of pap, why didn't the 9/11 Commissioners protest by printing up a 2-page summary saying the government lied, stalled about everything, and "compromised" their investigation. Waiting until now, until it is 'safe,' to cry over the mess and coverup, just shows what unprincipled wimps they are (except for Max Cleland who was upright enough to quit in protest to the sham).

  5. I have spent a lot of time reading, studying and learning as much as I can about 9/11, and strange as this may seem I am convinced it was not the government who commissioned the attacks. Certainly a very select few inside the govt knew that they were coming, but I suspect it was very, very few.

    It was most likely a huge play conducted by the kinds of specialists we recently saw at work in Dubai, but not at the behest of any government agency, but employed directly by those who profit the most from the following war, the same people who set up the Fed back in 1916 at Jekyll Island, and today rule the world through the total control of money.

  10. After all the lies the Bush administration told about Iraq and Afghanistan, it boggles the mind that anyone would believe anything they had to say about 9/11. As Vincent Bugliosi implies in his book, it is obvious Bush/Cheney were involved in a cover-up from day one.

  11. The "Official" version of 911 is absolutely rediculous due to the fact that steel and concrete on not pulverized by jet fuel and WTC7 collapsed exactly like all buildings taken down by demolition, at virtual freefall. Moslems that are so devout that they would sacrifice themselves, even though it is a sin according to the Koran, are out cavorting in titty bars the eve of their courageous event leaving Korans and passports around town is yet another fairytale.

  14. It is plain to see for anyone with real eyes that the towers were brought down with explosives. You can clearly see LOTS of explosions. And the towers fell at near free fall speed THROUGH THE PATH OF MOST RESISTANCE, completely against the laws of physics. And thats just the beginning. There are SO many clues as to who did this and why its endless. But unfortunately nothing will ever be done about this or any of the other crazy crimes committed by these people. We will just have to sit back and watch their next crimes, shake our heads and turn the TV back on to occupy our time.

  15. If the claims of nanothermite in the WTC dust are true, then it is a truth known to every intelligence agency under the sun. It would be naive to think dust samples weren't gathered and tested. So, they would all know, all of them, which means, if it is true, it won't be ridiculed away. It would come out instead. So, it would behoove them to shrewdly control HOW it comes out by getting their scapegoats together.

  19. If the planes hit near the top of both buildings.
    Then why did the buildings collapse from the bottom taking out each floor above it, at a speed to cause a free-fall and the building to fall into its own foot print?

    If the official version is to be believed then the building should start collapsing from near the airplane entry points and then each floor collapsing below it.

    All the videos clearly show the collapse to be one from the bottom and taking out each floor above it.

  20. And... where is the danger?

  21. On first glance, this blog piece {http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2010/03/proof-that-911-truthers-are-dangerous.html) appears to be a clever attempt to counter the US government's demonization and character assassination operation against those within the 9/11 truth community who correctly believe our country and its principles of justice, human rights, democratic process and accountability have been the actual things that were highjacked leading up to 9/11 and since (we could go back hundreds of years in that regard).

    And, I suspect the timing of this piece points to the author's intent as a propaganda response to the resulting media spin generated in response to the recent shooting of a reportedly mentally ill man who reportedly opened fire at guards at the Pentagon.

    In that regard I believe the title is essentially a tongue in cheek remark intended to show the falacy of those who are claiming 'truthers' are dangerous.

    However, is the author's actual intent to defend truthers or something else?

    I am concerned that the list of "truthers" referenced and quoted below may actually not be the 'kind' of truthers that REAL truthers actually need them to be.

    There are many other issues of concern for real truthers that might be called into question when examining the record and stated positions on many other historical issues and US policy.

    Just taking one glaring example, I heard Ray McGovern clearly state at a number of talks he gave that he was a supporter of George HW Bush's Gulf War (Desert Storm) against Iraq in 1991.

    Is it enough for many of these "truthers" to merely claim the 9/11 Commission was a cover up without even a suggestion as to what the truth actually is?

    So, I would suspect that the purpose of this article is to establish in reader's minds the 'milieu' if you will of those we should consider to indeed be bonified "9/11 truthers"

    Although I wish it were true, many if not most of those on this list I would consider to be disinformationists and damage control operators and players in regard to 9/11 and in regard to the continued fraud as to the actual purposes of US policies going back decades.

    Is it wise for the 9/11 truth movement (such as it is) to assume that, for example, former FBI Director Louis Freeh or "former" CIA Officer Robert Baer have all of a sudden been transformed into 9/11 truthers?

    Additionally, The blogsite author's anonymity does not add to my level of trust. The government and those responsible for the 9/11 events within and without our government certainly know who the authors of this blog are, as they certainly know who I am.

    It is clear one of the purposes of this site is to make those throughout the political scene feel less nervous about responding to a site that suggests the government may have had something to do with the 9/11 attacks.

    Unbeknownst to the lion's share of those neophytes, Washington's Blog certainly intends to lead them down the garden path.

  23. ITALIAN SAYS 9-11 SOLVED

    It’s common knowledge, he reveals, CIA, Mossad behind terror attacks

    rss202

    By the Staff of American Free Press

    Former Italian President Francesco Cossiga, who revealed the existence of Operation Gladio, has told Italy’s oldest and most widely read newspaper that the 9-11 terrorist attacks were run by the CIA and Mossad, and that this was common knowledge among global intelligence agencies. In what translates awkwardly into English, Cossiga told the newspaper Corriere della Sera:

    “All the [intelligence services] of America and Europe…know well that the disastrous attack has been planned and realized from the Mossad, with the aid of the Zionist world in order to put under accusation the Arabic countries and in order to induce the western powers to take part … in Iraq [and] Afghanistan.”

    Cossiga was elected president of the Italian Senate in July 1983 before winning a landslide election to become president of the country in 1985, and he remained until 1992.

    Cossiga’s tendency to be outspoken upset the Italian political establishment, and he was forced to resign after revealing the existence of, and his part in setting up, Operation Gladio. This was a rogue intelligence network under NATO auspices that carried out bombings across Europe in the 1960s, 1970s and ’80s. Gladio’s specialty was to carry out what they termed “false flag” operations—terror attacks that were blamed on their domestic and geopolitical opposition.

    In March 2001, Gladio agent Vincenzo Vinciguerra stated, in sworn testimony, “You had to attack civilians, the people, women, children, innocent people, unknown people far removed from any political game. The reason was quite simple: to force … the public to turn to the state to ask for greater security.”

    Cossiga first expressed his doubts about 9-11 in 2001, and is quoted by 9-11 researcherWebster Tarpley saying “The mastermind of the attack must have been a sophisticated mind, provided with ample means not only to recruit fanatic kamikazes, but also highly specialized personnel. I add one thing: it could not be accomplished without infiltrations in the radar and
    flight security personnel.”

    Coming from a widely respected former head of state, Cossiga’s assertion that the 9-11 attacks were an inside job and that this is common knowledge among global intelligence agencies is illuminating. It is one more eye-opening confirmation that has not been mentioned by America’s propaganda machine in print or on TV. Nevertheless, because of his experience and status in the world, Cossiga cannot be discounted as a crackpot.

  24. Debunkers will say, "if it were true someone would have come forward with the truth."

    Unfortunately, whenever the truth is an unspeakable truth, people tend not to speak it.

    Take for example the Catholic abuse conspiracy of shuffling priests around. That little nightmare lasted, what, one thousand years?! And what did they do to people who did try to speak the truth? Can you guess? They made them out to be kooks. They dismissed their bogus allegations out of hand, chalked it up to mental illness or hatred for the church, which discredited them and resulted in their being shunned by the rest of the righteous believers... sound familiar?

  25. Wouldn't it be possible for those who know better than to believe the official 9/11 story to hold their own investigation? What would it take for all those who are describing different parts of the same elephant to actually conduct the investigation that the 9/11 Commission was not allowed to conduct?

    As for the nay-sayers who claim we'll never know in our lifetime, we do in fact know the official 9/11 story is false. We can see film showing the demolition as it was carried out, We know no plane could have made the impact a missile so clearly made on the Pentagon. We must virally e-mail everyone who has e-mail this list of Truthers' statements PLUS the missing components--(1) the existence of Gladio and (2) key architects, engineers, and other experts able to explain how the video of the three towers collapsing prove they were demolished, not struck down by being hit by planes, and the melting temperatures, structural facts, and other specifics that prove they could not have been brought down as the public was so deliberately led to believe). There is strength in numbers, the truth itself is strong, and the geometrically increased effect of having huge numbers aware of the truth will stand us in good stead. Most American's do think only a kook would believe we were all lied to. Truth is stranger than fiction, and terribly telling in time. We can help hasten the time the truth is told in far greater detail, but we need to reveal what we know thus far and do it immediately. know

  26. Its sad when men write these articles and leave out all the women who have come forward about 911 truth. I notice this a lot about the internet; that its always the same names being circulated. The internet is getting as stagnant as the corporate media. Many of the articles on the internet are just becoming what I would call Mainstream Internet.

    Its amazing to watch the internet groupies turning into the same type as the corporate elites. And that's the way its always been, never any real change. I doubt the 911 truth movement will survive; not in our time at least.

  28. I've listened to Alex for 5 years straight day in and day out so this is not an Alex slam but rather a critical thinking session Jack. An observation.

    I'm being honest when I ask the following question to those who have learned over the past nine years to think deeply. Some of us were even taught by Alex Jones himself to practice critical thinking.

    Does anyone besides myself find it strange that infowars is posting more and more stories from "Russia Today" ?

    Think long and hard about what is happening around us.

    The first thought that came to my mind when Hal Turner was arrested was, "What better way to cover Alex Jones, than for the FBI (NSA) to have someone as extreme as Hal Turner out there?"

    Turner makes Jones look like a NWO worshiper with his fake murder rants.

    Are you being set up as you spread news stories from "Russia Today"

    "The best way to control a movement is to lead it." - Lenin

    The picture of Hal Turner smoking a fat cigar not looking very worried in my opinion. He had a smirk on his face in that recent infowars story.

    Are you being linked as Russian sympathizers when you spread Russia Today articles everywhere?

    Are we gonna suddenly hear Beck one day say, "Look at these 9/11 nuts spreading news from a Russian website..." Think people!

    Or, is this rather, a stupid move by critical thinker Alex Jones?

    I'm not saying what I'm thinking is true, but make no mistake, I am thinking.

    I found the following info by simply going to RT's news site and wikipedia

    Russian Information Agency Novosti (RIA Novosti) (in Russian: Российское агентство международных новостей «РИА Новости») is aRussian state-owned[1] news agency based in the capital Moscow.

    State owned Jack....?????

    It's non-profit because it is state owned by --“TV-Novosti”.

    http://rt.com/Disclaimer

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RIA_Novosti

    Our web site, [rt.com], is an internet service published by the Autonomous Non-Profit Organisation (ANO) “TV-Novosti”.

    Are you retarded Alex or is there something else going on here? I we are being set up.....If we found out you are a Hal Turner Alex...well you know what to expect don't you?

  30. michael cooper is another lost individual of America who thinks all threats to the American Dream are from external sources.

    The threat from within is so imminent and such a large elephant, and so in-the-open that many like michael cooper fail to see it. They think by supporting "private industry" they are keeping totalitarianism at bay, even when the private industry, American Style, has nothing to do with true free market.

    At least there are a few news sources (like RT) interviewing actual people, Americans and otherwise, that understand and know the dangers the American people are in.

    The Russians have been open to amicable relations, but when the U.S. is surrounding them, via Bulgaria, rumania, turkey, poland, and some of the 'stans' with anti ballistic missiles and bases, then Russia is correct to be nervous. How would we like the Chinese to set up bases and missiles just over the Canadian and Mexican borders? I think we would be a bit disturbed.

  38. To the person that wants specifics on who made money. I'm gonna start here.
    On Sept. 6, 2001, the Thursday before the tragedy, 2,075 put options were made on United Airlines and on Sept. 10, the day before the attacks, 2,282 put options were recorded for American Airlines. Given the prices at the time, this could have yielded speculators between $2 million and $4 million in profit. http://whatreallyhappened.com/WRHARTICLES/illegaltades.html
    Then to the famous "Owner" of the WTC, Larry Silverstein collected; In February of 2002 Silverstein Properties won $861 million from Industrial Risk Insurers to rebuild on the site of WTC 7. Silverstein Properties' estimated investment in WTC 7 was $386 million. So: This building's collapse resulted in a profit of about $500 million. http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/background/owners.html
    A federal jury on Monday ruled that the assault on the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center was in fact two occurrences for insurance purposes. The finding in U.S. District Court in Manhattan means leaseholder Larry Silverstein may collect up to $4.6 billion, according to reports. [Forbes.com 12/06/04]

    Corporate Profiteering in the Wake of 9/11/01.
    Many of us already know that the quarterly earnings of the biggest oil-and-gas corporations surged after the U.S./U.K. invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. Business Week of 2/23/04 reported that 2003 U.S. corporate profits were the largest in 31 years, led by ‘Big Oil’: ‘ The group's earnings more than doubled, to $45.2 billion. Exxon Mobil Corp. accounted for the bulk of the industry's gain and ranked No. 1 in total profits: Earnings rose 90%, to $21.5 billion, on a 22% increase in sales, to $222.9 billion. ’ We also know that profits by sub-contractors to the largest oil-and-gas corporations, such as Halliburton and Schlumberger, have surged. All these corporations share in the flow of oil and gas from war-torn Iraq. ChevronTexaco showed a record quarterly profit in the first three months of 2004, $2.56 billion, as the price of gas in the U.S. rose despite the output of oil from Iraq also rising toward its pre-invasion level of 2.4 million barrels a day.

Through ownership of shares or membership on Boards of Directors, the Rothschild, Rockefeller, and Morgan families also controlled the largest U.S. insurance, pharmaceutical and food corporations in 1972.
    Many of us also know that profits have surged since 9/11/01 for corporations which manufacture weapons. Department of Defense awards for the top five weapons contractors grew from $43.5 billion in 2001 to $66.4 billion in 2003. 3 During the first 24 hours of the 2003 war on Iraq the U.S. fired 500 of Raytheon's Tomahawk missiles at a cost of $600,000 per missile.

    company 2001 2002 2003
    Lockheed Martin 14.7 17.0 21.9
    Boeing 13.3 16.6 17.3
    Northrop Grumman 5.2 8.7 11.1
    General Dynamics 4.7 7.0 8.2
    Raytheon 5.6 7.0 7.9
    totals 43.5 56.3 66.4

    I would guess that that would be a great place for you to start when it comes to trying to follow the money. You know what they say, you want the "Truth"? Follow the money.

  39. What are the chances that the MSM will cober this headline?

    "Iraq War Veteran calls for Suspending the Pledge!"

    Any help spreading the word will be greatly appreciated. We have a limited window of opportunity to wake up America in time to avoid the collapse our controllers have planned for us.

  40. "None are so blind,as they, who WILL NOT see"!

    While we, in our life times, will doubtless remain uncertain of the ACTUAL facts of the 9/11 event sequences, and the reasons for them; we CAN look at this Nation's Foreign Policies since the event, as well as it's present continuation of such Martial Policies under a HIGHLY SUSPECT Admin., and determine the FACT that the leaders of our National Policy decisions, {who are, as Disreli once wrote: "Far fewer than you might suspect"}, are fully committed to the Empirial Historic pattern of expansion through conquests.

    Only this time the "expansion" is simply that of natural resources.

    If one reads the 1971-72 Club of Rome's "White Paper" on the principal means for obtaining Global peace, it is evident that that SMALL cartel/cadre of power addicts, Disreli referred to, is well along the path of completion of the necessary apparatus to bring the Global populace to the necessity of pleading for a Administrative body capable of establishing Global peace.

    Probably WWIII will do the trick.

  41. Don't forget the 9/11 dancing Israelis who GOT ON TV AND SAID, "WE WERE THERE TO DOCUMENT THE EVENT".

    Those 5 Israelis need to be arrested and brought to the US for a trial. They OBVIOUSLY had prior knowledge.

  45. Its this simple. ANYONE who believes the 911 commission report is based on an accurate investigation either A. Did not read it. B. read it but has no idea about science and laws of physics. C. Read it and is in denial about it. D. Read it and was first in denial, and now on the attack by saying its an attempt to take over the country. On the contrary, we want our country back. ANYONE who does imperical research will see the same thing. Firefightersfor911truth.org
    AEfor911truth.org (Architects & Engineers)
    Scholarsfor911truth.org
    and coming soon
    Scientistsfor911truth.org.

    That should sum it up

  47. From someone who saw it live that day, it was obviously a controlled demolition. Also, those planes that hit th buildings were not the ones they said hit the buildings. Plane 2 had no visible windows. Also, there appeared to be explosions where the planes hit a split second before impact. The buildings were brought down by thermite. Wake up people! That day was a coup.

  48. Everyone seems so surprised when they eventually find out the implications of "their" governments involvement. It's comical to those who can think in a critical manner.

    Sad fact: this is how governments govern...

    Sad fact 2: out of 278,058,881 people, 2,752 deaths is regarded as a small price to pay in order to gain public support for policy.

    The people who actually have power in any highly established government/corporation of any country, (and by this I mean the few at the very top layers of our social structure, those in a position where money has no meaning and is mearly a tool of control over the herd) can do what ever they desire. We then have to pick up the pieces. Yet sadly by the time transparency is achieved over a matter, BANG - a new event unfolds.

    Humans are quick to forget. (ie the Tonkin Gulf incident of 1964 led to war , Hitler with the burning of the Reichstag, again rallied public rage etc, the London tube bombings which no one over here (UK) talks about EVER..... the list goes on and I implore you to research this sort of stuff,

    BTW I am not denying that "terrorists" dont exist, ofcourse there must be many...the entire populations of the countries being invaded this very moment must surely come under that catorgory in the invaders eyes. (Bush/Obama/and THEIR "Owners" eyes in this context) so terrorism is a subjective view point.

    I guess MY point is this: this is not some kind of one off incident, and as horrid as it sounds these sort of incidents are a necessary act of people with power to maintain power.

    Nice fact: more people than ever are waking up to this dark history of governance, it's just americans have had the worst brainwashing/indoctrination on the planet (it seems to me anyway) hence this sort of thing is unimaginable to most americans, yet the rest of the world have known for decades.(think of all those american flags that have been publicly burnt, these people dont just burn flags in their spare time for a laugh I can assure you.)
    Think about it.

    I salute you americans who have managed to see past all the BS, and woken up from your american dream to see the real world.

    Finaly I'd like to point out that none of this would be happening if we somehow managed to break free from this capitalist death trap.

    Profit is the real killer here.

    Peace.
