With the arrival of Peak Oil, the curtain has closed on Act 1 of the drama Petroleum Man. What will happen in Act 2? Chekhov said, "If there's a gun on the wall at the beginning of the play, by the end it must go off." In the world's nuclear arsenal are many guns on the wall. If life copies art, will there be an Act 3 in which the players, having learned their lesson the hard way, live sustainably? To explore these and other questions... FTW's Act 2 Blog. Read, comment, take heart! Orkin

Alleviating FTW Readers' Concerns: Update
The fraudulent email sent last night is just that. My understanding is that sensitive information is stored in a separate location.
I have a question. If we have information that we feel is important and want the FTW people to see it, is posting it here good enough? I used to send items directly to Mike, which is of course not possible now.
good question! no, because it's an indirect method of reaching them and depends on my reading your mind, your desires and your needs. for website concerns, contact webmaster@copvcia.com. for editorial concerns, contact editor@copvcia.com.
And here's a sign of the times from Japan: Just the other day I was listening to the radio when a call-in quiz program came on. The grand prize? 100 liters of gasoline!
tnt in tampa -- What happened to the passengers? Did a plane really hit the Pentagon? What really brought down the towers? These are all intriguing questions, to be sure, but they bog us down in a quagmire of speculative thinking, which unfortunately takes up the greater part of the 9/11 truth movement's time and energy. If you read _Rubicon_, you can see that it is possible to build a very strong case for the complicity of US elites without getting into arguments about physical evidence, photographic analysis, etc.
Hi tnt -- good questions, of course. Why would UBL take credit? As far as I can see, we have no way of knowing if he has (or if UBL is still alive, for that matter). We have only Bush's word that the CIA says that the videos and such are "authentic." In my view, the pronouncements attributed to UBL are little more than a distraction.
What's important is who stands to profit the most. Proponents of the official story claim that "Muslim extremists" or "Islamofascists" have profited, but this is unconvincing, especially in the light of obvious "terror" hoaxes (like the recent "liquid bombers" hoax). The real beneficiaries can be found by examining the oil-drugs-money nexus and the political and military results of 9/11. Any purported benefits accrued by "terrorists" pale in comparison to the raw political power gained by the neocons since 9/11, and the colossal financial windfall enjoyed by US elites. This windfall is not limited to the immediate gains of 9/11, such as through insider trading, but extend to post-9/11 money flows such as uncontrolled military spending and all manner of "homeland security" scams through which the arms industry and other connected businesses are making a killing -- all at the expense of the American people.
As Mike Ruppert says, "follow the money." And the more you follow the money trail, the more you can see that 9/11 is one of the greatest scams of all time.
ftw also believes there was a plane at the pentagon. the suggestion that there was not is one of the hoaxes that abound on the internet. on the insider trading see 'crossing the rubicon' by mike ruppert.
