Just Facts not Emotions

Like many other people, until I did some independent research, I believed that 19 Muslims were responsible for “9/11”. Almost ten years ago on that horrendous day the graphic images of 3 World Trade Center buildings dropping at free fall speed were indelibly etched in my brain. For weeks the emotional impact of the disaster was so deep that I did not use my critical thinking skills to say, “How do I know what I was hearing and seeing from the mass media is correct”? Have I done my own fact searching independent of government conflict of interest propaganda? I never asked the questions such as, “Who will gain financially from “9/11”? In 2003 when we invaded Iraq and Afghanistan my suspicions began to really generate steam. About 2 years ago I rented (also free on YouTube) a well produced documentary called “Loose Change”, which became the seminal point in my rethinking of what and who caused “9/11”.
The emotional impact of “9/11” on many Americans, of those losing loved ones, and just our shear reaction to being overwhelmed or safely choosing the path of denial has fixated many of us on path of inaction. I have become a staunch advocate for opening up a new independent investigation, distanced myself from mass media and government propaganda, misuse of information, and fabrication of false evidence. I have literally invested hundreds of hours investigating the plethora of evidence that clearly points to our government lying to us. What is there in the emotional disability or ignorance of some adult Americans that they refuse to accept the realities of "9/11"? I believe it is a normal expectation for many of us to want believe that our government is there to protect us, and that our leaders always act with integrity and are not corrupt.
I would like to share with you some of the facts and incongruities that have led to increasing my suspicions, as well as the suspicions of an increasing mass of Americans who also believe that our government lied to us. The following are some facts that I have taken from a comprehensive summary entitled, “The Facts Speak for Themselves”, by Jon Gold: (Fact numbers are for reference) http://911truthnews.com/the-facts-speak-for-themselves/.
1: The Bush Administration was predominantly made up of members of an organization called “The Project for a New American Century.” This group produced a document entitled, “Rebuilding America’s Defenses” that said the “process of transformation” they wanted our military to undertake would take an excessively long time, unless there was a “catastrophic and catalyzing event – like a new Pearl Harbor.
2: The Bush Administration came into office wanting to go to war with Iraq. This is so heavily documented that Veteran White House reporter Helen Thomas asked the President about it. He denied it of course, and used 9/11 as the justification for what he and his administration have done.

4: In early 2001, Dick Cheney was put in charge of The National Energy Policy Development Group, or “Energy Task Force” for short. He prepared for this during the transition between the Clinton and Bush administrations. The task force met with what appears to be every oil executive in existence, even though they denied it before Congress. Five months before 9/11, it was eventually discovered that one of the topics of discussion during these task force meetings was Iraq’s oil fields. . The Vice President’s office fought long and hard to make sure the information from those meetings never saw the light of day. They even took the fight to the Supreme Court. Ultimately, they sent the fight to an appeals court, and it was decided that Cheney’s Task Force documents may remain secret.

9: From the Presidential Emergency Operations Center (PEOC), Dick Cheney allegedly monitored Flight 77 from 50 miles outside of Washington D.C. This, according to Transportation Secretary Norman Mineta. According to Mineta, “during the time that the airplane was coming in to the Pentagon, there was a young man who would come in and say to the Vice President, “The plane is 50 miles out.” “The plane is 30 miles out.” And when it got down to “the plane is 10 miles out,” the young man also said to the Vice President, “Do the orders still stand?” And the Vice President turned and whipped his neck around and said, “Of course the orders still stand. Have you heard anything to the contrary?” The 9/11 Report states that Cheney didn’t arrive in the PEOC until 9:58. No video conferences from within the PEOC have been made available. No personnel records for who was in the PEOC have been made available. The “young man” Norman Mineta mentioned has never been named, and was never brought before the 9/11 Commission to testify.
15: The Bush Administration was the families’ “biggest adversary” when it came to the creation of a so-called Independent 9/11 Commission. The families had to fight “tooth and nail,” and lobby to get an investigation because the Bush Administration clearly did not want one. Dick Cheney and George Bush refused to testify under oath before select individuals of the 9/11 Commission even though the families wanted them to. They testified together, not in public, and no recordings were allowed. The families requested the transcripts of their meeting, but were denied. They made it difficult for the commission to get funding. They tried to make Henry Kissinger the Chairman of the commission, but he resigned after the families started asking too many questions. Alberto Gonzales “stonewalled” the 9/11 Commission’s access to the White House. They appointed Thomas Kean as Chairman, someone “who will be easily controlled by the administration,” and Lee Hamilton, a long time friend of Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld to be the co-chair. Hamilton participated in two inquiries that resulted in cover-ups. The Iran/Contra Affair inquiry, and the October Surprise inquiry.
26: The 9/11 Commission only answered 30% of the families questions. The 9/11 Commission had the power of subpoena, but rarely used it.
33: The resulting dust from the collapse of the buildings on 9/11 was toxic, and people like Condoleezza Rice and the EPA’s Christie Todd Whitman lied about it so things like Wall Street could reopen. As a result, several 1000 “9/11” First Responders, and residents of New York are sick and dying.

In addition to the fifty above facts verified by “Gold”, the following verified facts are also patently transparent: (1) Thermite incendiary explosives were found in the WTC debris; (2) Over 100 first responders testified to multiple explosions (3) No high rise steel frame building has ever collapsed from fires; (4) Fires in 3 WTC building were short term and on only 10% of the building floors; (5) all 3 WTC buildings fell at free fall speed; (6)Bush and Cheney called Tom Daschle trying to discourage him from investigating; (7) WTC7 was never hit by a plane, was not in the “Report”, and fell 7 hours later; (8) The “Official Report” makes no references to explosions, testing for explosives, or important testimony of many witnesses.
I have no partisan political agenda, or any passionate wish at this point to bring the Bush administration officials to task for their criminal activities. I encourage every American to perform their own independent research. In the future we should be apprised that our government as well as many other governments created “False Flag” events that lead us into costly wars that have nothing to do with “Freedom and Liberation”, but are purely for the economic benefit of international bankers and corporations. The Iraq/Afghan wars are costing countless lives here and at home, and will cost each American in excess of $10,000, all for the benefit of greed and power. I hope that if another “9/11” were to sadly happen, that instead of 80% of America wanting to go to war, that at least 80% of us will be lodging major peaceful protests.
As long as we allow ourselves to react with our emotions based on media and government propagandized myths, and not act with investigation, reason, and logic we are rife for being tricked and deceived.
