Here is the predicted government counterattack on the physical-evidence 9/11 theories. NIST can get away with this because the 9/11 movement is putting all its eggs in one basket: concentrating on the physical evidence, which Bush controls.

2 U.S. Reports Seek to Counter Conspiracy Theories About 9/11
ReplyDeletehttp://www.nytimes.com/2006/09/02/nyregion/02conspiracy.html
This article is another in a recent counterattack by the government and their media mouthpieces on the 9/11 truth movement. They are no doubt grinning from ear to ear because the movement these days is concentrating on the physical evidence -- in particular the WTC -- which makes it easy for them to mount a debunking campaign.
Yesterday I listed to David Ray Griffin on a radio program. Without getting into the physical evidence, he used logic to examine the government's three explanations for why the hijacked planes were not intercepted. Even if we do not know the real reason, logic dictates that at least two of the explanations cannot be true, and Griffin shows why it was not simply a matter of "confusion."
The physical evidence is at best an extra dollop! Using the circumstantial evidence and logic is enough to show that Bush is lying, and our case is made. Yet the 9/11 truth movement continues to take the physical evidence bait like starving vultures devouring a corpse.

As a fellow expatriate fleeing the US controlled descent into chaos, I want to recommend a DVD for you (e-mail me and I'll send you a copy if you can't get it in Caracas): "Shanghai Ghetto," a documentary about Jews without passports who fled Germany (they saw what was coming) and the only port which would accept them: Shanghai, where they lived in poverty but escaped death.
ReplyDeleteDespite the degeneration of many of their descendants into Zionism, the parallels remain for those of us who are students of history and exiles (or future exiles) & expats from America.
We are not small in number. Every major city around the world has US expats. Many US expats in South America have seen the writing on the wall.
Many throughout history have been in our shoes, and it's good to learn from their experiences.

Mike, check out the DVD "Shanghai Ghetto," a documentary tale of those who fled Germany (they saw what was coming) without passports into the only port that would accept them, Shanghai, where they lived in poverty but survived in community with other expats.
ReplyDeleteWe're not the only ones. History has had many in our shoes. It's good to learn from those who have been through what we're going through.
If you can't get the DVD in Caracas, e-mail me and I'll send you a copy (plus some other interesting DVDs). I'll kick in a donation.
