Actor Charlie Sheen Questions Official 9/11 Story
Calls for truly independent investigation, joins growing ranks of
prominent credible whistleblowers
Alex Jones & Paul Joseph Watson/Prison Planet.com
| March 20 2006
Actor Charlie Sheen has joined a growing army of other highly credible
public figures in questioning the official story of 9/11 and calling for a new
independent investigation of the attack and the circumstances surrounding
it.
Over the past two years, scores of highly regarded individuals have gone
public to express their serious doubts about 9/11. These include former
presidential advisor and CIA analyst
Ray McGovern, the father of Reaganomics and former Assistant
Secretary of the US Treasury
Paul Craig Roberts, BYU physics Professor
Steven Jones, former German defense minister Andreas von
Buelow, former MI5 officer
David Shayler, former Blair cabinet member Michael
Meacher, former Chief Economist for the Department of Labor during
President George W. Bush's first term
Morgan Reynolds and many more.
Speaking to The Alex Jones Show on the GCN Radio Network, the star of
current hit comedy show Two and a Half Men and dozens of movies including
Platoon and Young Guns, Sheen elaborated on why he had problems believing the
government's version of events.
Sheen agreed that the biggest conspiracy theory was put out by the
government itself and prefaced his argument by quoting Theodore Roosevelt in
stating, "That we are to stand by the President right or wrong is not only
unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American
public."
"We're not the conspiracy theorists on this particular issue," said
Sheen.
"It seems to me like 19 amateurs with box cutters taking over four
commercial airliners and hitting 75% of their targets, that feels like a
conspiracy theory. It raises a lot of questions."
Sheen described the climate of acceptance for serious discussion about 9/11
as being far more fertile than it was a couple of years ago.
"It feels like from the people I talk to in and around my circles, it seems
like the worm is turning."
Suspicious collapse of buildings
Sheen described his immediate skepticism regarding the official reason for
the collapse of the twin towers and building 7 on the day of 9/11.
"I was up early and we were gonna do a pre-shoot on Spin City, the show I
used to do, I was watching the news and the north tower was burning. I saw the
south tower hit live, that famous wide shot where it disappears behind the
building and then we see the tremendous fireball."
"There was a feeling, it just didn't look any commercial jetliner I've flown
on any time in my life and then when the buildings came down later on that day
I said to my brother 'call me insane, but did it sorta look like those
buildings came down in a controlled demolition'?"
Sheen said that most people's gut instinct, that the buildings had been
deliberately imploded, was washed away by the incessant flood of the official
version of events from day one.
Sheen questioned the plausibility of a fireballs traveling 1100 feet down an
elevator shaft and causing damage to the lobbies of the towers as seen in video
footage, especially when contrasted with
eyewitness accounts of bombs and explosions in the
basement levels of the buildings.
Regarding building 7, which wasn't hit by a plane, Sheen highlighted the use
of the term "pull," a demolition industry term for pulling the outer walls of
the building towards the center in an implosion, as was used by Larry Silverstein in
a September 2002 PBS documentary when he said that the decision to
"pull" building 7 was made before its collapse. This technique ensures the
building collapses in its own footprint and can clearly be seen during the
collapse of building 7 with the classic 'crimp' being visible.
The highly suspicious collapse of building 7 and the twin towers has
previously been put under the spotlight by
physics Professor Steven Jones and
Kevin Ryan of Underwriters Laboratories, the company that
certified the steel components used in the construction of the World Trade
Center towers.
"The term 'pull' is as common to the demolition world as 'action and 'cut'
are to the movie world," said Sheen.
Sheen referenced firefighters in the buildings who were eyewitnesses
to demolition style implosions and bombs.
"This is not you or I watching the videos and speculating on what we saw,
these are gentlemen inside the buildings at the very point of collapse."
"If there's a problem with building 7 then there's a problem with the whole
thing," said Sheen.
Bush's behavior on 9/11
Sheen then questioned President Bush's actions on 9/11 and his location at
the Booker Elementary School in Florida. Once Andy Card had whispered to Bush
that America was under attack why didn't the secret service immediately whisk
Bush away to a secret location?
By remaining at a location where it was publicly known the President would
be before 9/11, he was not only putting his own life in danger, but the lives
of hundreds of schoolchildren. That is unless the government knew for sure what
the targets were beforehand and that President Bush wasn't one of them.
"It seems to me that upon the revelation of that news that the secret
service would grab the President as if he was on fire and remove him from that
room," said Sheen.
The question of how Bush saw the first plane hit the north tower, when no
live footage of that incident was carried, an assertion that Bush repeated
twice, was also put under the spotlight.
"I guess one of the perks of being President is that you get access to TV
channels that don't exist in the known universe," said Sheen.
"It might lead you to believe that he'd seen similar images in some type of
rehearsal as it were, I don't know."
The Pentagon incident
Sheen outlined his disbelief that the official story of what happened at the
Pentagon matched the physical evidence.
"Show us this incredible maneuvering, just show it to us. Just show us how
this particular plane pulled off these maneuvers. 270 degree turn at 500 miles
and hour descending 7,000 feet in two and a half minutes, skimming across
treetops the last 500 meters."
We have not been able to confirm that a large commercial airliner hit the
Pentagon because the government has seized and refused to release any footage
that would show the impact.
"I understand in the interest of national security that maybe not release
the Pentagon cameras but what about the Sheraton, what about the gas station,
what about the Department of Transportation freeway cam? What about all these
shots that had this thing perfectly documented? Instead they put out five
frames that they claim not to have authorized, it's really suspicious," said
Sheen.
Sheen also questioned how the plane basically disappeared into the Pentagon
with next to no wreckage and no indication of what happened to the wing
sections.
Concerning how the Bush administration had finalized Afghanistan war plans
two days before 9/11 with the massing of 44,000 US troops and 18,000 British
troops in Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, and in addition the call for "some
catastrophic and catalyzing event - like a new Pearl Harbor," as outlined in
the PNAC
documents, Sheen stated, "you don't really put those strategies
together overnight do you for a major invasion? Those are really well
calculated and really well planned."
"Coincidence? We think not," said Sheen and he called the PNAC quotes
"emblematic of the arrogance of this administration."
A real investigation
Sheen joined others in calling for a revised and truly independent
investigation of 9/11.
Sheen said that "September 11 wasn't the Zapruder film, it was the Zapruder
film festival," and that the inquiry had to be, "headed, if this is possible,
by some neutral investigative committee. What if we used retired political
foreign nationals? What if we used experts that don't have any ties whatsoever
to this administration?"
"It is up to us to reveal the truth. It is up to us because we owe it to the
families, we owe it to the victims. We owe it to everybody's life who was
drastically altered, horrifically that day and forever. We owe it to them to
uncover what happened."
Charlie Sheen joins the rest of his great family and notably his father
Martin Sheen, who has lambasted for opposing the Iraq war before it had begun
yet has now been proven right in triplicate, in using his prominent public
platform to stand for truth and justice and we applaud and salute his brave
efforts, remembering Mark Twain's quote.
"In the beginning of a change, the patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated,
and scorned. When his cause succeeds however, the timid join him, for then it
costs nothing to be a patriot."
CNN Produces
Balanced Piece On Sheen 9/11 Comments
911 Blogger | March 23 2006
Comment: We are amazed and flabbergasted by how fair this piece is and
it should help encourage other high profile figures in the public eye like
Charlie Sheen to come forward.
CNN Showbiz Tonight Covers Charlie Sheen and 9/11 Skepticism
( Right Click / Save as )
(27mb
WMV)
(22mb
Real Media)
Tonight marks the first instance where those that question 9/11 were given a
fair shake at voicing their opinions. While little can be said in just 10
minutes of coverage, it was at the very least a reasonable discussion and an
important milestone for the 9/11 truth community. 911truth.org's media
coordinator Mike Berger did a great job with the short time he was allotted
while the host A.J. Hammer allowed for a good live discussion and avoided the
all-to-familiar Bill O'Reilly style of 'news'.
Despite the numerous questions surrounding 9/11 which have gone unmentioned
by the mainstream media for the last 4+ years, and the growing number of
respectable scholars, government officials, and family members demanding
answers - this is the first time a major news station has covered 9/11
questions in any reasonable format, even if it was on a Hollywood celebrity
show. If the mainstream media were to truly desire to cover 9/11 further I
would hope in the future they might consider a longer format so that all of the
news and facts they haven't bothered reporting over the last 4+ years might
have a chance to finally be seen and heard. (Hey Showtime and HBO, are you
listening?)
I urge all of those who support 9/11 being further discussed by CNN and
their affiliates to contact them via their feedback form here. Be sure to
reference the host A.J. Hammer, and the show 'Showbiz Tonight'.

Actor & Director Ed Asner Says Govt 911 Story A Fable And Fraud
Highlights story of hijackers still alive and well
Paul Joseph Watson & Alex
Jones/Prison Planet.com | March 31 2006
Award winning director, producer and actor Ed Asner is the latest high
profile public figure to voice his support for Charlie Sheen's stance on 9/11
and share his own concerns about 9/11, the war in Iraq and the Neo-Cons.
Speaking to The Alex Jones Show Asner, best known for his Emmy-winning role
as Lou Grant on The Mary Tyler Moore Show, echoed Charlie Sheen's
sentiments in stating, "I became suspicious of 9/11 on the day it
happened."
"I will always be that suspect of it and challenge it and challenge various
points of it," said Asner.
Asner agreed that the official story of 9/11 and the Kean Commission
investigation was a fable and a fraud.
"I do not buy it and I would challenge it, I know all of these points....the
standing down," said Asner.
Asner questioned why no authority figures had been fired for their inability
to prevent 9/11.
"Nobody in high office has ever paid the penalty for keeping us unprepared
for 9/11, no one has paid the price and I cite the fact that Abu Ghraib was
another typical example of the way this government works," said Asner.
"It's very easy to think of 9/11 to think of being yet another cause of
being able to generate war in this country, " said Asner as he compared 9/11 to
past examples of manufactured provocations such as the Gulf of Tonkin incident,
the attack on the Maine and Pearl Harbor.
"Many of the purported hijackers are living persons elsewhere," said Asner
highlighting a story reported
by BBC and others that several of the so-called perpetrators of
9/11 visited their embassies in protest that they had been identified as
terrorists.
Asked who gained from 9/11 Asner answered, "Certainly the military has,
Halliburton, Brown and Root, Mr. Cheney's old outfit....the oil companies of
course now with record highs, and the White House is of course involved with
oil and the military and always has been."
Asner doubted that another terror attack needed to be staged in order to
accomplish more of the same agenda.
"They don't have to have another attack, if they indeed launched the first
one they have screwed up our country so badly they could just let us sink in
upon ourselves."
Asner questioned why CNN chose to cancel his scheduled spot on Showbiz
Tonight. After speaking to inside sources within CNN we were able to confirm
that the order came down from a higher office to "kill" the story, despite the
fact that the issue had generated the most interest Showbiz Tonight had ever
encountered.
Asner is a true humanitarian and is an activist in the fields of missing US
PoW's, depleted uranium, which Asner suggested was a deliberate population
reduction method, and the fight to get the FDA to eliminate deadly thimerosal
mercury additives to vaccines.
His public stance on 9/11 and his support of Charlie Sheen helps in the
ongoing effort to encourage public figures with large media platforms to step
forward and become prominent voices for the 9/11 truth movement.

CNN Fears 911 Truth Cancels Ed Asner's Appearance
Infowars.com - 3-28-6
Infowars received an email from author and publisher Sander Hicks this
afternoon indicating that the interview with Ed Asner scheduled for this
evening on Showbiz Tonight has been cancelled. Hicks, a published author on the
9/11 cover-up as well as a Green Party senatorial candidate in New York was
slated to appear with Asner on the program to discuss 9/11. Infowars confirmed
with sources at CNN the segment was cancelled because another guest who had
agreed to appear as an opposition voice to Hicks and Asner refused to
participate the interview at the last moment. The CNN source further indicated
that the opposition guest was none other than a former member of the Keene 9/11
whitewash Commission.
Further investigation and probing of several other CNN sources closely
connected with the production of the Asner segment on Showbiz Tonight reported
that high-level members of CNN management advised the producers of the show to
"kill it. " This statement was clearly made to stifle any further coverage of
9/11 despite the admitedly huge ratings boost and response garnered from the
recent coverage of Charlie Sheen's statements on 9/11.
"I guarantee that this member of the 9/11 Commission pulled out at the last
moment because they think that by simply replying to Asner and Hicks and the
comments of Charlie Sheen, he would be giving credence to their statements.
This is a strategic move on their part to quash debate and avoid having to
actually answer the hard questions about 9/11 which the 9/11 Commission failed
to do. This stonewalling technique will not work forever - there are too many
people waking up to their whitewash." - Alex Jones
Award winning actor, director, producer, and pioneering
anti-Iraq war activist Ed Asner is scheduled to appear live on the CNN Headline
News program Showbiz Tonight (6pm CST). Asner is reportedly going on to support
Charlie Sheen's bold and brave stance calling for a real investigation of the
events on September 11th, 2001 as well as to raise his own questions.
Also on Showbiz Tonight on March 27, actress Sharon Stone defended Sheen and
his First Amendment right to speak out saying that he is brave and that it is
important to confront authority.
Asner and Sheen are just two more of many celebrities who have already come
forward to question the official story of what happened on 9/11.
Actor James Woods began questioning the official fable in
the first weeks right after 9/11. X-Files and Lone Gunmen star Dean Haglund has
already gone public on the Alex Jones Show (December 18, 2004) questioning the
official story. Actor Ed Begley, Jr. hosted a 9/11 Truth Symposium in New York
City several months ago.
And we have recently confirmed that one of the world's most popular and
beloved musicians is awake to the truth about 9/11 and in the very near future
may be going public.
Many more major stars who are considering going public have contacted us in
recent days.
The dam is finally breaking. Delta Force Founder Eric Haney has spoken out
in the press about the "War on Terrorism" being bogus and how there is no real
threat to the United States. The 9/11 Truth Movemet has reached critical mass
and is now exploding. The perpitrators of 9/11 have got to be concerned as more
and more people across the globe wake up to the 9/11 hoax.

Venezuelan Government To Launch International 9/11 Investigation
Truth crusaders Walter and Rodriguez to appear on Hugo Chavez's
weekly TV broadcast
Paul Joseph Watson & Alex Jones/Prison Planet.com | March 31 2006
Billionaire philanthropist Jimmy Walter and WTC survivor William Rodriguez
this week embarked on a groundbreaking trip to Caracas Venezuela in which they
met with with the President of the Assembly and will soon meet with Venezuelan
President himself Hugo Chavez in anticipation of an official Venezuelan
government investigation into 9/11.
Rodriguez was the last survivor pulled from the rubble of the north tower of
the WTC, and was responsible for all stairwells within the tower. Rodriguez
represented family members of 9/11 victims and testified to the 9/11 Commission
that bombs were in the north tower but his statements were completely omitted
from the official record.
Jimmy Walter has been at the forefront of a world tour to raise awareness
about 9/11 and has still yet to receive any response to his million dollar
challenge in which he offers a $1 million reward for proof that
the trade towers' steel structure was broken apart without explosives.
Rodriguez said that he was told an FBI agent had asked the hotel him and
Walter were staying in turn over a list of names of residents. Upon hearing
this, the National Assembly provided armed military protection for the entirety
of the trip. In addition, Walters said that CIA agents were seen surveilling
the beach on which he and Rodriguez had handed out free DVD's a day
earlier.
The US government attempted to sabotage the trip by putting Rodriguez, who
has been decorated at the White House itself, and Walter on a no fly list.
Rodriguez (pictured above) and Walter are educating top Venezuelan officials
on the evidence that 9/11 was a self-inflicted wound carried out by the
military-industrial complex. They have also appeared on every Venezuelan
television and radio station both private and state owned and have given huge
presentations to major universities.
Upon visiting, Rodriguez said that the President of the Assembly, Nicolas
Maduro's home was brimming with books, videos and documents about the 9/11
cover-up. Maduro, Venezuela's top legislator, intoned that he was ready to
create an international investigative committee, looking into the
"international crime scene" that is 9/11 and that this would be structured via
Hugo Chavez's government.
Rodriguez and Walter are also set to appear on Hugo Chavez's weekly
broadcast 'Alo Presidente' - which is often subsequently the source of major
international headlines. If there is no coverage of this event then we know for
sure that a blackout order is in place.
Rodriguez and Walter offered their full support for Charlie
Sheen's recent public stance on 9/11 and were heartened by his efforts. The
potential of a government level inquiry endorsed by Hugo Chavez dovetails with
Sheen's call for an independent investigation to be carried out by political
foreign nationals.
Though the establishment media will no doubt seek to demonize Chavez as a
militant with an axe to grind, this is an exciting development and the next
step on the road to a genuine investigation that will seek to uncover the truth
rather than hide skeletons and whitewash as was witnessed with the staged Kean
committee.

Silverstein, Giuliani, WTC 7 and 20-20 Hindsight
Fake Terror
by Jeremy Baker
If I was a gambling man, I’d bet the farm. WTC 7 was originally
meant to collapse a few seconds after the North Tower hit the ground. Not
seven hours later. I can’t think of a single reason that these guys
would want to keep this World Trade Center complex building intact all day
long.
9/11 skeptics, well versed in this esoteric field,
know what I’m talking about. Something went very wrong that day. Some
signal got crossed, maybe there was sabotage from within, we’ll
probably never really know for sure. But if we accept, as most of these fine
researchers, writers and activists do, that the Twin Towers and WTC 7 were
finished off with preplanted explosives (the coup de grace in what was
essentially an inside job), then it’s the only scenario that
fits.
Think about it. How would it possibly benefit the perpetrators to
wait hours, until late in the day, to finally push the button on Building 7?
The whole world would be watching. That handy cloud of powdered debris that
enveloped lower Manhattan would be long gone, your cover all but blown. Why
draw out the spectacle any longer than necessary?
And it explains some things that have always needed explaining. For
instance, we have several photographs of marginal, struggling fires burning
on the 7th and 12th floors of Building 7, ones that, according to
“official” reports, were supposed to have melted the building and
brought it crashing down. But does that scenario really make any sense at
all? Did it ever? Could it be, instead, that these inconsequential fires in
Building 7 provide us with clues about what was really going on inside?
Doesn’t the following scenario make more sense: when WTC 7 failed to
collapse on schedule, the conspirators scrambled to bring the demolition
system back on line. With their original plan in ruins, they finally made the
decision to set fires in WTC 7 for the same reason they’d been set by
the planes in the towers: to provide a plausible pretext for the
building’s forthcoming demolition.
But the fires, set by desperate men in a tight spot, never quite
caught on the way they should have. But why? If the original plan had been
(for some inexplicable reason) to keep WTC 7 intact all day long and start
fires in the afternoon that could be blamed for the collapse of the building,
wouldn’t they have lit up WTC 7 like a roman candle to enhance the
effect? We know that these guys can build a serious fire when they apply
themselves. We have the photos of WTC 5 and 6 burning like blast furnaces to
prove it. But the well planned and executed arson in these buildings required
time and resources that the guys in Building 7, working on the sly, just
weren’t able to produce on such short notice, especially when the
building was surrounded by chaos, emergency workers and a moonscape of
destruction. So they threw together what fires they could using whatever they
had on hand and then beat feet for Fleet Street. The resulting blazes, barely
discernable from without, took hours to grow to the size necessary to sustain
the illusion (barely) that, like the Twin Towers, WTC 7 just couldn’t
stand the heat. And then, late in the day and with lower Manhattan in
lockdown, the Keystone Konspirators finally pulled the plug on 7 at 5:25
PM.
This revealing fact, that fires in Building 7 weren’t even
called in until late in the day (approx. 3 PM), is a glaring 9/11 anomaly
because of how harshly it conflicts with “official” reports that
raging fires were ignited by debris from Tower One’s collapse that
morning. But what kind of “raging” fire takes hours to build to
even a modest size before finally getting “called in” late in the
day?
Officials have offered speculations on WTC 7's (and the towers)
unprecedented vulnerability to fire but nothing that’s ever held water.
And this story about the 40,000 gallons of diesel fuel catching on fire and
burning down the house, what nonsense. If that gas tank became involved there
wouldn’t have been a fire, there would have been an explosion (a big
one), and then a fire, a huge fire. And it’s for this reason that the
perps would never have torched the diesel tank to set their little dummy
blaze. That kind of inferno would damage explosive systems and cause all
kinds of problems. Remember, their goal was the total destruction of the
entire structure as planned, not an unwieldy blaze within. But these guys
knew better and made sure to set their fires well above the huge diesel tank
on ground level.
WTC 7 still on its feet hours after the attacks was problematic in
other ways. The “official” story has always been that the North
Tower’s plummeting debris impacted WTC 7 (which was one full city block
from the North Tower with WTC 6 standing in between) and ignited a dynamic
inferno that caused the 47 story, steel framed structure to suddenly drop
like a stone hours later, a phenomenon unprecedented in the history of
firefighting and one that occurred not once but three times on September
11th. But Building 7's longevity undoubtedly increased the likelihood of
people noticing and possibly photographing the obvious lack of damage to
Building 7 from the collapse of Tower One. Isn’t it extremely
suspicious that absolutely no photographs of WTC 7's “damaged”
face have ever been released to the public? The building was standing there
all day long. Isn’t it more likely that when WTC 7 didn’t go down
on schedule, Plan B became containment, much like it had been at the Pentagon
(and Oklahoma city for that matter). What few photogs, film crews or
onlookers that penetrated ground zero would have their materials confiscated
for “security purposes.”
But there were also conflicting reports about a man said to have been
the only person to die in the collapse of WTC 7. The US House of
Representatives website posted a tribute to Secret Service Special Officer
Craig Miller whose body was found in the rubble of Building 7. According to
this posting, Officer Miller apparently died during the “rescue
effort” that day. After the Towers were hit, Building 7 (the Manhattan
HQ of the Secret Service) was quickly evacuated and everyone survived, all
except this lone SS guy. Not a firefighter. Not a rescue worker or a cop.
Other accounts record no fatalities whatsoever in 7. Why the confusion? There
was either a body in the rubble or there wasn’t. Was an autopsy done on
this man?
And who on earth was this SS guy rescuing? WTC 7 had been evacuated.
Are Secret Service officers mandated to rescue people from (empty) burning
buildings? The fires in WTC 7 were burning on the floors just above and below
Secret Service offices on the 9th and 10th floors. Could this man have played
a role in the days events that got him into trouble? Could he have been an
amateur arsonist who got too close to his fire? The story of Larry
Silverstein claiming to have ‘pulled’ WTC 7 is well known among
9/11 researchers. The only explanation that’s ever been offered in
Silverstein’s defense was that he meant ‘pull’ the
firefighters out of the “dangerously burning” building. But if
that were true, why didn’t this Secret Service guy get the message? But
then no nostalgic look back on WTC 7 (and the Trade Center in general) is
complete without reacquainting ourselves with the inscrutable Manhattan real
estate mogul Larry Silverstein. Sooner or later, history is going to have to
decide how it remembers this guy. With all we’ve learned about
September 11th there are still only a handful of actual, individual suspects.
I’d like to nominate Mr. Silverstein to this elite fraternity.
World Trade Center 7, or the Solomon Brothers Building, was owned by
Silverstein Properties and had been the headquarters of his development
company, Westfield America, for years. But it also housed Rudy
Giuliani’s Office of Emergency Management (OEM), a reinforced, Arab
proof control center oddly located at the number one terrorist target in the
country (a baffling choice of locations considering that the WTC had already
been attacked once in 1993). This incomprehensible (and very
“unheroic”) decision proved its absurdity on 9/11 when, in the
midst of an actual emergency, Giuliani was unable to access his control
center for obvious reasons.
WTC 7 also hosted offices of the DoD, the IRS and the SEC, as well as
a handful of private financial institutions. In addition, 7 was the storage
center for millions of files on active cases involving organized crime,
international drug dealing, money laundering and terrorism, all of which have
demonstrable links to US intelligence. So a New York Times report that
Building 7 was also the secret location of the largest domestic CIA station
outside of the District of Columbia probably shouldn’t come as a
surprise. The addition of “the agency” to this already
scintillating list of tenants would appear to make WTC 7 a kind of nexus for
what many researchers consider to be key entities in this sprawling
conspiracy. But the fact that Larry Silverstein was the CIA’s secret
NYC landlord for years is a point I made sure to jot down too.
Some researchers have made the shocking claim that the OEM was just a
cover for its real purpose, the conspirators attack operations center (now
that would explain the poor choice of locations). This recently armored
facility, high on the 23rd floor, had a bird’s eye view of the
unfolding spectacle, the perfect vantage point from which to guide the planes
to their targets and fine tune the demolition strategy for the Twin Towers
(when to detonate, which floors to blast first, etc.). But once you’ve
cooly orchestrated the collapse of the safely distant South Tower (murdering
hundreds of fleeing office workers and firefighters) and programmed the
explosives in the North Tower, doesn’t it then make sense to set the
timers, vacate the building, say a Hail Mary and then watch the North Tower
and WTC 7 collapse at the same time, neatly wrapping up the mornings work?
Whatever Giuliani’s control center had been used for, the evidence
would be obliterated, along with years of CIA secrets, government files and
the ghosts of WTC 7.
If this dizzying, Danté-esque spectacle is, in fact, a reality
and does, amazingly, feature “America’s Mayor” in a leading
role, what do we know about Giuliani’s movements at the time?
Officially, he was at a makeshift command post at 75 Barclay Street until
just before the collapses when he claims that he and his staff were evacuated
from the building. He later told Peter Jennings, “We were told that the
WTC was gonna collapse,” a prophetic remark considering the fact that
no steel framed highrise had ever collapsed due to fire before. But WTC 7 is
on Barclay Street, just at the evacuation perimeter, proving that Giuliani
was indeed in the area at the time. But he was evacuating the area, not
setting up shop in WTC 7 for a hard day of directing traffic from
above.
This idea, that the mayor’s command bunker was meant to be used
throughout the day before being demolished, I just don’t see it. The
mayor of New York City (or whomever), orchestrating the aftermath of 9/11 in
the upper floors of a burning building? And what would he (they) be doing up
there? Seems to me that the day’s to-do list had already been checked
off. And for the life of me, I just can’t imagine that the original
plan would ever have included the re-entry of any of the structures after the
devastation that occurred earlier.
There is, in addition, a compelling connection to be made between the
mayor’s OEM and the fires in WTC 7. The lower of the two fires in WTC 7
was on floor 7, the location of the OEM’s emergency generators. If the
arsonists were indeed OEM men, they would not only have had access to this
floor, they would also have had a ready supply of accellerant (i.e. gasoline)
at their disposal (the upper fire was on one of 3 floors used by the
SEC).
So the mayor (and others) may have had access to his command bunker
after all, but just long enough for it to serve its purposes that morning.
And, as for being told that “the WTC was gonna collapse,” well,
if you already knew this for a fact because you were gonna make it collapse,
it’s as good an excuse as any to cover a timely exit.
As 9/11 researchers are well aware, Larry Silverstein took over
control of the World Trade Center just a few weeks before the attacks of
9/11. After ramping up the insurance on the complex (an act of uncanny
foresight considering what was to come) he then set to work replacing
security personnel in a building complex that hadn’t changed hands in
thirty years and had never before been privately controlled. His 2001
sweetheart deal with the Port Authority and the City of New York was for a 99
year lease worth much more than the $3.2 billion he and his firm had
contracted for. And later, when he tried to sue the insurance companies
claiming that two planes means two terrorist attacks, therefore twice the
settlement (bringing the total, in Silverstein’s mind, to $7.2
billion), the courts cried foul and sent Larry packing (after the attacks,
one WTC insurer sued Silverstein for apparently paying lobbyists to try to
limit his liability to the victims families). Funny, I don’t remember
the headline; “Manhattan Tycoon Exploits National Tragedy for Personal
Gain” appearing anywhere after 9/11.
But the real specter haunting Larry Silverstein involves a growing
body of evidence that Zionist extremists may’ve had a hand in the
attacks of 9/11. There are some who believe that Mossad (Israeli
intelligence) fingerprints are all over the attacks, and I’m not so
sure I disagree. Israel has a well documented history of framing Arabs for
attacks on Americans, a fact that never seemed to make its way into the
mainstream mind in the months after September 11th. And the Zionist fanatics
who’ve pulled off this kind of “op” in the past have a
history of tapping the diaspora for talent. And Larry Silverstein is just
their kind of guy.
Ex-president of the United Jewish Appeal (the largest Israeli
fundraiser in the US) and a highly connected supporter of Israel, Silverstein
has strong ties to the Israeli political and business establishments. His
colleague, another UJA leader, Lewis Eisenberg — former chairman of the
Port Authority, finance chairman for the RNC and former VP of AIPAC
(American/Israeli PAC) — negotiated the deal that put the WTC in
Silverstein’s control. Add to this the many examples of Israeli
foreknowledge of and proximity to the attacks and the plot begins to thicken
considerably.
There are a host of disturbing ties between Israeli hardliners and
September 11th (too many to list in detail here) but none more compelling
than the basic issue of motive. It simply cannot be argued that no single
player stood to gain more from the attacks (or, more accurately, from the
response to the attacks) than the Zionist hardliners who’ve been
envisioning a Mideast under their control for decades. For many years before
9/11, Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, William Kristol and other powerful,
highly placed American Zionists had advocated for increasingly aggressive US
military actions towards a host of Muslim states. All that was needed to get
the ball rolling was the Pearl Harbor-like event mentioned so often in their
pre-9/11 literature. And it’s working. Our bludgeoning of Afghanistan
and Iraq represent bold steps towards the fulfillment of the sulphurous
neo-con agenda.
Given the fact that Silverstein’s name pops up in many dark
corners of the 9/11 shadow play, is it really unfair to view him as a
“person of interest” in the horrendous crime and coverup of
September 11th? And if he was a player in a subterfuge of this magnitude, is
it really such a stretch to imagine that he might have been “in the
room” when the pseudo-hijackings were being planned? And if he was,
might he have suggested tweaking the plan just a little to include a detour
by Flight 175 south? Knowing that the Air Force would be AWOL that morning,
the plane’s scenic side trip would surely be, at worse, a minor
adjustment — but with major implications. This one, small alteration to
the aircraft’s flight plan would not only result in the planes hitting
from opposite directions, it would also increase the length of time between
the first and second hits. And these two points combined might go a long way
to supporting Silverstein’s claim of two separate terrorist
events.
It’s a matter of record. Flight 175 (the second plane to strike
the WTC) came barreling out of the north, flew south far past Manhattan
before circling back towards the city, a peculiar deviation that took the
plane a good fifteen minutes or so out of its way. This odd, time wasting and
risky maneuver has never been explained. Certainly the
“hijackers” wouldn’t have thought it was a good idea.
Wouldn’t they want to secure the objective ASAP before the fighter jets
showed up? It just doesn’t compute. But there’s one man who
might’ve done very well by this short trip south if only his fortunes
had unfolded according to plan in the courtroom. And all Silverstein had to
do was give Dov Zakheim a call.
With close ties to the Israeli government and reported duel
Israeli/American citizenship, Bush’s Texas buddy and undersecretary of
state, Dov Zakheim, boasts a long list of impressive credentials. Ex-DoD CFO
(chief financial officer), Zakheim joined the Pentagon staff in May, 2001,
shortly before the attacks and at a time when the Pentagon couldn’t
account for $3 trillion in spending. A longtime DoD consultant and neo-con
insider, he’s also a senior figure at the Heritage Foundation, the
Center for International and Strategic Studies and the Center for Security
Policy — not to mention the Council on Foreign Relations and the PNAC.
But before his Pentagon gig, he was also VP of Systems Planning Corporation
and CEO of one of its subsidiaries. SPC is a high-tech outfit that
specializes in, among other things, the remote control commandeering of
aircraft and the technical support required for live flight military
exercises.
This bizarre but entirely viable theory, that some or all of the
“hijacked” passenger jets on 9/11 had been remotely commandeered
and guided to their targets, has been (despite its Buck Rogers kind of
aspect) a key speculation among the very best 9/11 researchers. This
technology has been with us for decades and Zakheim’s SPC specializes
in it. SPC’s Flight Termination System is a fully programmable tool to
retrieve aircraft remotely. But this technology is also a key element in the
kind of live flight war games the military was conveniently conducting on
9/11. These cold war drills in Northern Canada and Alaska drew interceptors
away fron the Northeast US and, using false radar blips, effectively
paralyzed defenders who might otherwise have reached their targets. But it
also eliminated the need for a peculiar and very risky general “stand
down” order from Pentagon brass during the attacks, a command that
would create disbelief and suspicion among hundreds of patriotic military
people.
A couple of years ago, PBS aired a program entitled “America
Rebuilds,” a documentary detailing the cleanup effort at ground zero.
The comments Larry Silverstein made in an interview in this program have
become a “point of interest” among 9/11 researchers and
I’ve enjoyed watching this story steadily gain a following.
Specifically, he described being on the phone with the FDNY commander and
coming to the conclusion that there had “been such terrible loss of
life maybe the smartest thing to do is, is ‘pull’ it,”
(referring to WTC 7). Then, according to Silverstein, “they made that
decision to ‘pull’ and we watched the building collapse”
(the same documentary quotes a demo worker: “well, we’re getting
ready to ‘pull’ building 6" moments before demolishing its burnt
out carcass, a comment that would appear to support the meaning of the
industry term ‘pull’).
Many have asked how he could possibly have been so careless as to
make such an admission publicly. But what if circumstances compelled him to
do so? What if his comments were a discrete response to growing suspicions
surrounding the botched attempt to ‘pull’ WTC 7 earlier in the
day? The powers-that-be have brazenly used PBS programming to spin other
aspects of 9/11. The NOVA program that espoused the theory of the
“pancaking” of the Twin Tower’s floors is infamous in the
9/11 skeptics community. PBS programs relating to 9/11 typically feature
“experts” who unanimously support the party line. I remember one
such “authority” solemnly offering his professional opinion that
the paper we saw falling like confetti as the WTC burned undoubtedly
contributed to the raging fires within and played a significant role in the
collapse of the towers!
With WTC 7's obvious demolition caught on film from at least three
excellent perspectives, it’s an understatement to say that Silverstein
and his cohorts had a big problem on their hands. Could it be that his
comments about ‘pulling’ WTC 7 were a carefully choreographed
“hang out” of the issue? Using Karl Rove-like sleight of hand, he
offers a vague accounting of the anomaly delivered to us on an almost
subconscious level. I’ve watched that video clip hundreds of times and
to this day I hear only one thing: that he and his people made the decision
to demolish WTC 7 citing the “terrible loss of life” suffered
earlier that day. His body language, his wording, his tone, all seem to point
to this one terrible conclusion. Paradoxically, his comments may have been
intended to steer us in the exact opposite direction: that, despite how it
may have appeared, heroes in high places stepped up and made the tough
choices.
The expression ‘pull’ relates to the word
‘demolition’ the same way that the expression ‘wind
up’ relates to the word ‘pitch.’ In both cases they
represent one event occurring in two stages. In this sense,
Silverstein’s use of the word ‘pull’ to mean
‘demolition’ seems clear and may also have served to cover the
sudden and suspicious evacuation of rescue personnel from the disaster zone
shortly before WTC 7's bizarre suicide — a necessity when you’re
about to demolish a building. A photographer on the scene described the
evacuation of firefighters as they “prepared for the collapse of
Building 7...I was 150 yards away when I saw the firefighters raising the
flag.” Excuse me? Steel framed highrises don’t collapse! Firemen,
knowing this to be true, typically approach steelframed buildings (just like
they did the towers that morning), especially if the structures are only
marginally involved. Isn’t it highly suspicious that the firefighters
seemingly just gave up on this exceedingly important and valuable government
building that had only modest fires burning within? Doesn’t this fact
support the theory that WTC 7 was essentially a crime scene that needed to be
destroyed?
This man’s statement (which, by the way, proves that
photographers weren’t barred from the scene and could very well have
produced images of WTC 7's “debris damage”) describes the
behavior of workers who were evacuating a building that was about to be
demolished, not trained emergency workers worried about something that never
happens. Silverstein’s remarks replace this problematic scenario with
the tall tale of wise (and clairvoyant) public servants acting in the nick of
time to save lives (not scatter potential witnesses). Either way Mr.
Silverstein has some explaining to do.
The plan to obscure WTC 7's implosion with the billowing dust cloud
created by the collapse of Tower One is too good an idea for these guys not
to have considered. And it would have worked like a charm. The flattened 32
story Marriott Vista hotel (or WTC 3), nestled snugly between the towers, is
long forgotten in a world that barely remembers the life and times of
Building 7. If WTC 7 being ‘pulled’ when it was mostly hidden
from view (and as chaos reigned on the streets below) wasn’t the
original plan, it should’ve been. And considering all the hubbub
created by its remaining intact, it makes sense that this was indeed the
original idea.
The unintended survival of WTC 7, shortlived though it was, has
proven itself to be a gift from providence to the good people of the world on
a day when it seemed as though providence had abandoned us. Those of us who
know that 9/11 was conceived, written and directed by, well, the usual
suspects, find, in Building 7 and it’s dark pedigree, the Achilles heel
in the “official” fairy tale sold us in the wake of the most vile
deception history has ever recorded. Let’s hope we make the most of
this gift.
If you can judge the substance of a new paradigm by how thoroughly it
displaces an old one, than maybe we’re onto something here. Since this
possibility occurred to me, I simply cannot remember the WTC disaster the way
I used to; that for some inexplicable reason Building 7 just lingered for
hours after the attacks before they finally ‘pulled’ it. And
after years of sifting through this material and scrutinizing 9/11, I will
never again see WTC 7 as anything other than what it surely was. A dud. An
epic, 47 story, steel-belted dud that, later that day, blew up in Larry
Silverstein’s hand.
Case For WTC Tower Demolition Sealed By David Ray Griffin
Theologian Says Controlled Demolition is Now a Fact, Not a
Theory
From Kevin Barrett
Coordinator MUJCA-NET
Muslim-Christian-Jewish Alliance For 911
10-21-5
In two speeches to overflow crowds in New York last weekend, notable
theologian David Ray Griffin argued that recently revealed evidence seals the
case that the Twin Towers and WTC-7 were destroyed by controlled demolition
with explosives. Despite the many enduring mysteries of the 9/11 attacks, Dr.
Griffin concluded, "It is already possible to know, beyond a reasonable
doubt, one very important thing: the destruction of the World Trade Center
was an inside job, orchestrated by terrorists within our own government."
On Oct. 15th and 16th, New Yorkers filled two venues to hear the prominent
theologian and author of two books on 9/11 give a presentation entitled "The
Destruction of the Trade Towers: A Christian Theologian Speaks Out." Dr.
Griffin has continued to blaze a trail of courage, leading where most media
and elected officials have feared to tread. His presentation went straight to
the core of one of the most powerful indictments of the official story, the
collapse of the towers and WTC 7.
Dr. Griffin included excerpts from the firemenís tapes which were
recently released as a result of a prolonged court battle led by
victimís families represented by attorney Norman Siegel and reported
in the NY Times. He also included statements by many witnesses. These sources
gave ample testimony giving evidence of explosions going off in the
buildings. A 12 minute film was shown for the audiences, who saw for
themselves the undeniable evidence for controlled demolition.
Dr. Griffin listed ten characteristics of the collapses which all indicate
that the buildings did not fall due to being struck by planes or the ensuing
fires. He explained the buildings fell suddenly without any indication of
collapse. They fell straight into their own footprint at free-fall speed,
meeting virtually no resistance as they fell--a physical impossibility unless
all vertical support was being progressively removed by explosives severing
the core columns.
The towers were built to withstand the impact of a Boeing 707 and 160 mile
per hour winds, and nothing about the plane crashes or ensuing fires gave any
indication of causing the kind of damage that would be necessary to trigger
even a partial or progressive collapse, much less the shredding of the
buildings into dust and fragments that could drop at free-fall speed.
The massive core columns--the most significant structural feature of the
buildings, whose very existence is denied in the official 9/11 Commission
Report--were severed into uniform 30 foot sections, just right for the
30-foot trucks used to remove them quickly before a real investigation could
transpire.
There was a volcanic-like dust cloud from the concrete being pulverized,
and no physical mechanism other than explosives can begin to explain how so
much of the buildings' concrete was rendered into extremely fine dust. The
debris was ejected horizontally several hundred feet in huge fan shaped
plumes stretching in all directions, with telltale "squibs" following the
path of the explosives downward.
These are all facts that have been avoided by mainstream and even most of
the alternative media. Again, these are characteristics of the kind of
controlled demolitions that news people and firefighters were describing on
the morning of 9/11. Those multiple first-person descriptions of controlled
demolition were hidden away for almost four years by the City of New York
until a lawsuit finally forced the city to release them. Dr. Griffin's study
of these accounts has led him beyond his earlier questioning of the official
story of the collapses, to his above-quoted conclusion: The destruction of
the three WTC buildings with explosives by US government terrorists is no
longer a hypothesis, but a fact that has been proved beyond a reasonable
doubt.
It ís important to note that Dr. Griffin is one of many prominent
intellectuals--including the likes of Gore Vidal, Howard Zinn, Peter Dale
Scott, Richard Falk, Paul Craig Roberts, Morgan Reynolds and Peter
Phillips--who have seen through the major discrepancies of the official
explanation of 9/11 and have risen to challenge it. These brave individuals
represent the tip of an ever-growing iceberg of discreet 9/11 skeptics.
Indeed, 9/11 skepticism appears to be almost universal among intellectuals
who have examined the evidence, since there has not yet been a single serious
attempt to refute the case developed by Dr. Griffin and such like-minded
thinkers as Nafeez Ahmed and Mike Ruppert. As for the general public, polls
have shown that a strong majority of Canadians (63%, Toronto Star, May '04)
and half of New Yorkers (Zogby, August 2004) agree that top US leaders
conspired to murder nearly 3,000 Americans on 9/11/01.
How, then, can the mainstream US media continue to ignore the story of the
century? Perhaps the best answer was given by Dr. Griffin himself in the
conclusion of his talk, and is worth quoting at length:
"The evidence for this conclusion (that 9/11 was an inside job) has thus
far been largely ignored by the mainstream press, perhaps under the guise of
obeying President Bushís advice not to tolerate "outrageous conspiracy
theories." We have seen, however, that it is the Bush administrationís
conspiracy theory that is the outrageous one, because it is violently
contradicted by numerous facts, including some basic laws of physics.
"There is, of course, another reason why the mainstream press has not
pointed out these contradictions. As a recent letter to the Los Angeles Times
said:
"'The number of contradictions in the official version of . . . 9/11 is so
overwhelming that . . . it simply cannot be believed. Yet . . . the official
version cannot be abandoned because the implication of rejecting it is far
too disturbing: that we are subject to a government conspiracy of "X-Files"
proportions and insidiousness.'
"The implications are indeed disturbing. Many people who know or at least
suspect the truth about 9/11 probably believe that revealing it would be so
disturbing to the American psyche, the American form of government, and
global stability that it is better to pretend to believe the official
version. I would suggest, however, that any merit this argument may have had
earlier has been overcome by more recent events and realizations. Far more
devastating to the American psyche, the American form of government, and the
world as a whole will be the continued rule of those who brought us 9/11,
because the values reflected in that horrendous event have been reflected in
the Bush administrationís lies to justify the attack on Iraq, its
disregard for environmental science and the Bill of Rights, its criminal
negligence both before and after Katrina, and now its apparent plan not only
to weaponize space but also to authorize the use of nuclear weapons in a
preemptive strike.
"In light of this situation and the facts discussed in this lecture---as
well as dozens of more problems in the official account of 9/11 discussed
elsewhere---I call on the New York Times to take the lead in finally exposing
to the American people and the world the truth about 9/11. Taking the lead on
such a story will, of course, involve enormous risks. But if there is any
news organization with the power, the prestige, and the credibility to break
this story, it is the Times. It performed yeoman service in getting the 9/11
oral histories released. But now the welfare of our republic and perhaps even
the survival of our civilization depend on getting the truth about 9/11
exposed. I am calling on the Times to rise to the occasion.
Dr. Griffinís speech given at the University of Wisconsin earlier
this year, entitled "9/11 and the American Empire," was broadcast twice on
C-SPAN. In late September Dr. Griffin was asked to give expert testimony at
hearings sponsored by Cynthia McKinney and the Congressional Black Caucus
investigating the 9/11 Commission Report. He is currently Professor Emeritus
at Claremont College in California.
