What category does 9/11 stuff go in?

by oakland activist
a 911 rant.
Why does Portland have to be the only site that has 911 as a category when its the biggest lie of the century being put forth through that, and the left is bascially shutting it out so that people don't get 'upset' by it and flee the 'peace' movement? Why is SF the center of the movement (outside NYC) but it doesn't get a page on here, while womyn gets its own page?

This thing is growing all the time. The Herbst was packed. 911 is top of the news everyday now. Average people are calling in to Bensky's program from Oakland to take him on, and they know the details of the arguments to make to expose his lies. And if Condi Rice's 911 shit is getting this much coverage, imagine what the media situation will be like in August with the RNC at Ground Zero, smack on top of a TRAIN STATION . . .

There are now suggestions flying that the next US terrorist attack will be nuclear, but who's talking about this outside of the 9/11 community and the right-wing think tanks?

I'm just ranting - sorry! I know you guys work hard and are doing a great job here - I'm just wanting more. The conference this weekend was scary, because it makes you realize just how deep we're in this shit, and how hopeless it will be if people don't wake up, fast. Already the lies are unbelievable, really, it's stunning to what lengths they will go, and how deep the media is in it. Anything is possible when they will go to these lengths.

It's bad enough that I actually think it's time to completely boycott the election. Kerry is fucking nightmare, and he'll only be the same shit all over again.

The people in the 911 movement are like small cogs, churning away constantly, building websites, having small events, constantly debating their research, holding banners at Ground Zero every weekend, doing email / fax campaigns, all quietly and below the media radar, as though in silence. And the left has shut them out - ANSWER and UFPJ have blocked their attempts even to have speakers like the heartbreaking Ellen Mariani at the rallies, a survivor who has the supreme courage to take on the Nazi himself in a lawsuit, getting duped by her slick lawyer in the process. (I recently saw a letter from someone in ANSWER suggesting they are becoming more amenable, so who knows). Left spokespeople like Amy Goodman and Larry Bensky share space in the effort by the left to shut up the 911 movement. But the cogs continue to turn, no light shining on them, pleased at the tiniest mention in a news article of their efforts, endlessly churning out information and building upon every puzzle piece.

And worse then that, not only do the left orgs shut out these courageous activists, but they have the nerve to attack them for 'allowing' people they consider 'right-wing' into the movement, as though truth were only for one side. Sad.

I know it takes work to keep up a page, and someone to do the work. If you need it, ask. Some cog will step up to the plate, I would bet.

Many thanks to Oakland Activist for this article.

It seems that people are putting the 9-11 Hoax articles in either the Anti-War category or the Police State Category. We should have a separate 9-11 Hoax Category.

The head-in-the-sand ostrich routine in regard to the greatest political scandal and hoax we have seen in decades will not be tolerated. The 9-11 Hoax must be the PRIMARY topic at all peace rallies and all peace websites.

As to the definition of right wing: The anti-science and pro-capitalist (and often anti-abortion and anti-gay) religious parasites and the politicians of the twin party of capitalism, the Democrats, are routinely and unashamedly allowed to speak at peace rallies and they are VICIOUSLY REACTIONARY.

Yet, Ellen Mariani, a widow of a 9-11 victim (her husband was murdered as an airplane passenger on United Flight 175 which crashed into the Twin Towers), and her current attorney, Philip Berg, (not the previous one who was not good apparently) were not allowed to speak at our peace rallies. These two people are doing a fantastic job of exposing the truth of the 9-11 Hoax.

They both spoke at the San Francisco conference on the 9-11 Hoax, 3/26-28,/04 and were both outstanding.

Philip Berg was interviewed on Flashpoints, KPFA, 94.1 FM, on March 29, 2004 and in the few minutes he had, covered a tremendous amount of material on the 9-11 Hoax and the police state in the US, eloquently and clearly. He has a complete command of his subject and must be heard at every peace rally possible. See http://www.flashpoints.net/

The amended complaint, at
http://www.911forthetruth.com/united_states_district_court.htm
is well worth reading, and contains a wide range of charges, from the usual legal counts based on RICO (anti-organized crime statute) to the following:
1. Constitutional mandate of the president to act as commander-in-chief, which obviously Bush failed to do.

2. Bush, Cheney and other cabinet members are profiting from their contrived "International War on Terror (IWOT)."

3. The Bush family has ties to the bin-Laden family that make for a conflict of interest on the part of Bush in this so-called IWOT.

4. "A pattern of this financial war profiting and the "Bush Family" goes back TO THEIR DEALINGS WITH NAZI GERMANY during World War II."

5. The response of Pres. Bush and of this country's air defense system were grossly inadequate to non-existent, demonstrating either foreknowledge or complicity or both.

6. In paragraph 47, the Amended Complaint states:
"Moreover, why are several alleged terrorists named by Defendant GWB who allegedly died in hte "911" attacks STILL ALIVE?"

7. In paragraph 73, the Amended Complaint states:
"Plaintiff believes the attacks of "911" that resulted in the murder of her husband and the magnitude of the crisis is readily apparent by noting that "911" serves as a pretext for a never-ending war against the world, including preemptive strikes against defenseless but resource rich countries. It also serves as a pretext for draconian measues of represssion at home, including the cabinet level Department of Homeland Security and Patriot Act I and its sequel and once the truth is exposed in this matter, the priary beneficiaries of 'failing to act and preent' the "911" attacks on America include Defendant GWB, his family, 'political supporters' and Defendant friends who have made hundreds of millions off the "IWOT" as of this date."

8. In Paragraph 77, the Amended Complaint states: "The nexus with Defendant GHB (Bush, Senior) and the 'Carlyle Group' and Defendant Cheney's Halliburton and Bin Laden family connections go to the heart of this RICO Act claim."

9. In Paragraph 79a, the Amended Complaint describes the Project of the New American Century, the "primary architects of these plans include Defendants Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, Richard Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld."

10. In Paragraph 79b, the Amended Complaint states "Plaintiff will prove the "911" attacks came at an exremely fortuitous time for the Bush administration, the Pentagon, the CIA, the FBI, the weapons industry and the oil industry, all of which have benefited immensely from this tragedy."

11. In Paragraph 79c, the Amended Complaint states:
"Plaintiff will demonsrate as Hitler was able to play the anti-communist card to win over skeptical German indusrialists, the Bush family is not a newcomer to medling political and business interests. As history and evidence proves, the Bushes got their start as key Hitler supporters . Prescrott Bush, father of George Bush Sr, wa Hitler's banker and propaganda manager in New York, until FDR confiscated his holdings. Defendant George Bush Sr used Manuel Noriega as a scapegoat, killing thousands of innocent Panamanians in the process of re-establishing US control over Panama. It is also widely believed that Defendant George W. Bush administration knowingly misled the people about the war in Iraq."

12. In Paragraph 79d, the Amended Complaint states: "Plaintiff will prove there are precedents for these kinds of acts of complicity and fabrications to support the RICO Act basis of this Complaint such as: (1) the contemplation of terrorist attacks on US citizens by the CIA is a matter of public record by release of previously classified "Operation Northwoods" documents. These documents reveal that in 1962, the CIA seriously considered the possibility of carrying out terrorist attacks against US citizens, in order to blame it on Cuba. The plans were never implemented, but were given approval signatures by all the Joint Chiefs of Staff."

13. In paragraph 81, the Amended Complaint calls upon the Court to examine who benefits from the 911 Crime?

THIS AMENDED COMPLAINT IS A LEGAL DOCUMENT AND A PUBLIC RECORD, and thus very useful to quote. A complaint is just the beginning of a lawsuit before discovery (investigation) has commenced. I would say this is a Great Beginning, and this Indymedia website should keep us all tuned for the sequels.

The Portland 911 Hoax site at http://portland.indymedia.org/en/topic/911investigation/
is good, but we all know San Francisco can do better. Please add a 911 Hoax category and feature it as often as possible on this website.
We are 100% volunteer and depend on your participation to sustain our efforts!
