Not a problem. The USA is now full Orwell. It does not matter how irrefutably logical and empirically correct a study or a statement or whatever is that is published; TPTB will say black is white and up is down and all the cognitively dissonanced herd will go shopping with a smile on their face.

University Study Finds Fire Did Not Bring Down World Trade Center Building 7 on 9/11


Fire Did Not Cause 3rd Tower’s Collapse on 9/11, New Study Finds

On September 11, 2001, at 5:20 PM, the 47-story World Trade Center Building 7 collapsed into its footprint, falling more than 100 feet at the rate of gravity for 2.5 seconds of its seven-second destruction.

Despite calls for the evidence to be preserved, New York City officials had the building's debris removed and destroyed in the ensuing weeks and months, preventing a proper forensic investigation from ever taking place. Seven years later, federal investigators concluded that WTC 7 was the first steel-framed high-rise ever to have collapsed solely as a result of normal office fires.

Today, we at Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth are pleased to partner with the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) in releasing the draft report of a four-year computer modeling study of WTC 7’s collapse conducted by researchers in the university's Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering. The UAF WTC 7 report concludes that the collapse of WTC 7 on 9/11 was caused not by fire but rather by the near-simultaneous failure of every column in the building.

Most Americans Who See Collapse of Building 7 Doubt Official Story, Survey Finds
3-to-1 Majority Who See Building 7’s Collapse Support New Investigation

A solid majority of Americans who watch the Sept. 11, 2001, collapse of World Trade Center Building 7 on video don’t buy the government’s story that fires brought it down, according to a new survey conducted by YouGov on behalf of Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth.

If you still do not understand WHY the card carrying PNAC (i.e. "NEW" Pearl Harbor) EVIL BASTARDS did this murderous false flag attack, just read this article and it will become crystal clear to you that it was the only way these FASCISTS could think of to make the USA the FASCIST PARADISE it is today. The article fails to connect the 9/11 WTC 7 dot, but it is blatantly OBVIOUS that ALL the post 9/11 attacks on our freedoms within the USA, from the "Patriot" Act on through the civil liberties strangling tyranny checklist, could NEVER have been successfully pushed without a "NEW" Pearl Harbor = 9/11.

"The Helplessness I Felt Was Matched Only By The Silence That Followed" - Never Forget 9/11

Agelbert NOTE: TPTB rolled out there annual exercise in tear jerking, bold faced BULLSHIT about "never forgetting" 9/11. The Propaganda piece was actually about 😈 making sure the American public NEVER REMEMBERS how utterly OBVIOUS it was, and still is, that the beneficiaries of 9/11 were the SAME PNAC (see: "New" Pearl Harbor) Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, neocon Mossad False Flag Attack BASTARDS who, with malice aforethought, planned 9/11, executed 9/11 and subsequently covered up evidence of pre-planted explosives that demolished three WTC buildings on 9/11. 

Most of the comments on ZH made it crystal clear that the American public no longer falls for that "19 Ayrabs did it" CRAP. Good!

Aluminum clad airplanes with a few gallons of fuel break and melt the 1360 ft tall steel pillars on the twin towers and turn the cement into powder. WOW!   Why does the military need missiles with super explosives when they could use inexpensive drones and some jet fuel.

It took me a bit longer to sort it out. Thats on me for letting my own bias cloud my judgements. Its been a long road getting over them. Even now I still want to be able to trust people when I shouldnt. Just this year I let my trusting nature almost get the better of me.

Do you ever have a day where you just wake up and are shocked at the three ring horror shitshow that we live under, as if you forgot to notice for a bit and then it slapped you in the face? I had that yesterday.

This is some scary **** and its like body snatchers out there. Pat yourself on the back for knowing whats going on, keeping your cool and being sane at all, because this **** is a horror. Most cant even look at reality because they cant handle it psychologically, like maybe this author.

I think this author gets paid to push drivel.

Thats more likely in this case. Palm licking, virtue signalling, fake media...

I actually feel sorry for her, but not for the reasons she attempts to lay down here .. but her piece does gives an extreme crystalization of exactly how far down the rabbit hole this thing goes .. to my way of thinking, none better ..

It is sad ..

The USA has two staunch allies, Saudi Arabia and Israel.

They both took one for the team.

There was no seismic signal other than rebound. Nothing other than dust hit the ground.

The empirical evidence must guide us, no matter where it leads.

Whats really a stunner is how many in our government went right along with it for their regular paychecks. All 50 State AGs. Everyone in law enforcement. The whole msm was reading from prepared scripts as it unfolded. They all had the harley guys line word for word.

 Yes folks they sold out humanity for a paycheck.

 That said. We will need to barter for justice.

Take the red pill, Danielle.

Either you’re too traumatized by the events of 9/11 to face the facts of what really happened, or you’re too ingrained in the state/media narrative to question it.

Elements of the state apparatus in usa, Israel, and Saudi Arabia perpetrated 9/11

it was a false flag, a psy-op against the American people, a gold heist, an insurance scam, and an insider trading bonanza.

Anyone here know who shorted American Airlines' stock like two or three days before 9/11. It seems to be pretty commonly known that it happened, but finding anyone who can do more than only speculate, who it was who shorted AA stocks is evasive. I know Jim Rickards, and probably many others, have videos and writings that mention the shorting, but nobody ever has come out so say who it was. It was someone who had information it was going to happen, how it would happen, and a pretty large sum of money, that much is assured.

lakecity55
No doubt all the big fish in the know gave their money to a broker and had him short the stock. The broker was later found shot "33" times, and declared a suicide by the ME, who coincidentally died in a tragic auto crash the next day.

Sounds about right ..

I'm afraid the evidence went up in smoke ..

Those two towers and three big smoking holes, covered a multitude of sins ..

WTC 7 collapse helped literally bury most financial records of Enron.

Don't forget the Pentagon being hit right in the office where investigation to all that lost money was going on.

But that's just pure coincidence...

Great day again for Israel: ready to further steal land with impunity with the Zionists ruling as they did then in 2001.

They have shown they can do whatever they like: 9/11; Mossad ruled as they did with JFK. Dare say it and you will be treated like you were anti-Semitic or some such slur. They won and still are winning all the time and there is nobody who can stop them. EVery POTUS will play their game while pretending to fight this "Deep State". They win by deception and have Trump on their side.

Who "aimed" the planes at the buildings again?  Why did they do it? 

Ignoring the motive for this is self fagellation at best, **** at worse.

How about remembering the three million dead Vietnamese who the U.S. killed, after creating it's own war in Southeast Asia (started after interfering with the Geneva Agreement of 1954: An internationally brokered agreement to settle Vietnam's sovereignty using a political process).

Not to mention 100,000's of firebombed Japanese, etc., etc.

The Dust From 9/11 Has Yet to Settle >:(

September 11, 2019

A federal judge recently declared the government's terrorism watchlist unconstitutional, but the violation of civil liberties and US wars abroad continue.


Story Transcript

GREG WILPERT: Welcome to The Real News Network. I’m Greg Wilpert in Baltimore.

Wednesday, September 11th is the 18th anniversary of the 2001 terror attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, commonly known as 9/11. The aftermath of 9/11 was profound for the United States and the rest of the world, when the US began its so-called war on terror. Internationally, the US launched at least two wars. First, against Afghanistan to overthrow the Taliban and to ostensibly capture Osama bin Laden, the alleged mastermind behind 9/11. This still continuing war is now the longest war in US history. One and a half years after 9/11, the US also went to war against Iraq.

Domestically, one of the most significant developments of 9/11 was the passage of the so-called USA Patriot Act. This law, which was passed a mere six weeks after 9/11, allowed the US government to indefinitely detain non-citizens; to surveil telephone, email, and financial records without a court order; and to access business records, including library and financial records. When the Patriot Act expired in 2015, Obama signed a new version of the law called the Freedom Act, which is set to expire by the end of this year. Last month, the Trump administration urged Congress to extend the Freedom Act’s provisions of mass telephone surveillance indefinitely.

However, a coalition of 30 digital rights, social justice and civil liberties groups urged house Democrats on Monday not to renew section 215 of the law, which allows the government to collect phone metadata without court authorization. In a related development, a federal judge ruled last Wednesday that the US government’s terrorism watchlist, which contains the names of at least 1.2 million people, most of the non-US citizens, is unconstitutional. According to the judge, “The risk of erroneous deprivation of plaintiffs travel-related and reputational liberty interest is high, and the currently existing procedural safeguards are not sufficient to address that risk.”

Joining me now to discuss the aftereffects of 9/11 is Marjorie Cohn. She is Professor Emerita at Thomas Jefferson School of Law, and a former President of the National Lawyers Guild. Thanks for joining us again, Marjorie.

MARJORIE COHN: My pleasure, Greg.

GREG WILPERT: So let’s start with the most recent development first, the ruling that the terrorism watchlist is unconstitutional. The case was brought by the Council on American Islamic Relations representing 19 US citizens who are on the list. Just how significant is this ruling, and what does it mean in practice for those who are on the list?

MARJORIE COHN: It’s quite significant because the Obama administration quietly approved a substantial increase in people on the terrorism watchlist. On 9/11, there were 16 names on this list. Today there are tens of thousands of names, as you said. And the plaintiffs in this lawsuit claimed that they had—This is not a No Fly List, which is more severe than the terrorism watchlist, but it’s similar. And the judge in this case that you talked about, actually used principles from the No Fly List. But the terrorism watchlist means that people can be stopped when they’re traveling, when they’re stopped by a police officer, pretty much any time and harassed, indefinitely detained, their phones and laptops confiscated, interrogations.

And these plaintiffs claimed that they had suffered pretty severe deprivations, injuries. One went to the hospital. He was on life support at one point, I believe. And so, they were not sure that they were on this list because the government doesn’t tell you you’re on the list. Nor were they told what evidence was used to put them on the list, if they were on the list. Nor were they told how they could refute the evidence, so-called evidence, and get off the list. And so that’s mainly why this judge, the US district court judge in the Eastern District of Virginia, decided that this was unconstitutional, it was too vague, and granted what is called summary judgment, which means that there are no material issues of fact that a jury could decide.

And so the plaintiffs won at this point, but it’s not a complete win because what the judge did was to send the case back and order that the parties file briefs about how this system could be made more fair, so it wouldn’t violate due process. In other words, remedies that these plaintiffs could get. So this was a very significant ruling, but again a partial ruling.

GREG WILPERT: Now, as you mentioned, it’s not generally known how many people are on this list or how did they get placed on the list, and it became quite notorious after 9/11 when thousands of people, as you mentioned, were denied permission to board airplanes because they were on a subset of that list. That is, the No Fly List. Now, how do these lists exactly impact civil liberties? Once they’re on it, is there any recourse to actually get off of it, especially now after this ruling?

MARJORIE COHN: Well, at this point, there isn’t a recourse to get off of it and that’s why the judge sent the case back. Basically, he told the parties to file briefs to talk about making these procedures comply with due process, but people are not told they’re on these lists. Secret evidence is used to put them on the list, even uncorroborated Facebook posts can be used. There is a standard of reasonable suspicion, which is a pretty low standard, lower than probable cause, that the government supposedly uses to put people on this list. And the standard is based on the totality of the circumstances, that means all of the factors.

They use the words articulable intelligence or information— although that’s not defined— taken together with rational inferences from those facts, lead one to believe that someone is a known or suspected terrorist. This is very, very vague, which is one of the problems that the judge found with it. Another problem is that the government, in putting people on these lists, can consider race, ethnicity, religious affiliation, beliefs protected by the First Amendment, including freedom of speech, religion, press, assembly and redress of grievances. They can look at people’s history associates, business associations, international associations, a study of Arabic for example, just about anything to put people on these lists. And really, it only takes one single person in the White House who has unilateral authority to put people on these lists. So the judge was, I think, justifiably concerned about this and the constitutional ramifications, which is why the ruling came out the way it did.

GREG WILPERT: Now, I want to turn to some of the other domestic consequences of 9/11. That is, the collection of phone records known as metadata of practically all US citizens. Since June 2013, we know thanks to Edward Snowden’s leaks, that this has been going on for a long time. Last October though, a declassified inspector general’s report revealed that most of the data that was being collected was useless, and that the National Security Agency apparently ended the program shortly after this report came out. However, the Trump administration apparently would like to see it revived. What would you say now remains of the Patriot Act and the consequences that 9/11 had on civil liberties?

MARJORIE COHN: Well, metadata is basically websites people visit, numbers they call, and this is what Edward Snowden revealed that the NSA, the National Security Agency, was looking for patterns so that they could use this to target people and basically spy on them without complying with the Fourth Amendment— warrant, etc. You cited that study that showed that this metadata is practically useless and metadata, interestingly, is also used in deciding who to target with drones, which is another result of the post-9/11 era. Bush started droning people. I think his first drone attack was in Yemen, and Obama took this to an even higher level.

I think he was using drones to attack people in seven different countries. ARS Technica did a study and found that the metadata that’s used to decide what people a drone will target resulted in 99% false positives. So, virtually useless. And yet, they’re still using it. And as you say, the Trump administration, even though the evidence shows that it’s not reliable, want to continue to use it. This is not surprising given Trump’s allergy to evidence-based and scientific evidence and data. The problem is that for political reasons, most people in Congress don’t have the backbone to stand up to the government when the government says, “Oh, we have to fight terrorism.”

And they don’t want—These people who are standing for reelection in the Congress, don’t want to be accused of being soft on terror, and so they roll over. After 9/11, it took about three weeks, as you said, for the Congress to pass the USA Patriot Act. And many of the provisions in the Patriot Act, the government had tried to get them through before 9/11 and Congress said no. But after 9/11, I think it was a 582-page bill, most people in Congress didn’t even read it. ACLU staffers reported that congressional aides had called them the day after the vote on the Patriot Act to find out what their members, their congressional members, had voted on.

And so they’re kind of flying blind, knee-jerk response to terrorism. And of course, that’s not all. We had increased surveillance and the drones, we have the torture program, and two major wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, illegal wars. Never should have happened as a result of 9/11 or in the wake of 9/11. And now, we’re celebrating the 18th anniversary of the longest war in US history, the war in Afghanistan. In addition to drone attacks, regime changes, and other kinds of interferences and interventions in many, many different countries, particularly in the Middle East.

So 9/11 had a profound effect on our liberties, but also the lives of people around the world. Untold numbers of people have died in these wars, in these drone attacks. Thousands of people have been tortured with so-called enhanced interrogation techniques. The Senate did an extensive study documenting the torture that had taken place, and yet no one at any level of authority has been held accountable. And that really, it was the responsibility of people in the Obama administration because under the Take Care Clause of the Constitution, the president has the duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed. And yet Obama said, “Yes, well, we tortured some folks, but we’d rather look forward not backward.” I think he was thinking about himself not wanting to become a defendant in a war crimes prosecution in the future, and they also protect each other. And so, there’s been tremendous fallout since 9/11.

GREG WILPERT: Well, I think it’s very important to keep this in mind, this history, but also looking forward if the Freedom Act gets basically extended, as the Trump administration wants to do. But we’re going to have to leave it there for now. I was speaking to Marjorie Cohn, Professor Emerita at Thomas Jefferson School of Law. Thanks again, Marjorie, for having joined us today.

MARJORIE COHN: Thank you, Greg.

GREG WILPERT: And thank you for joining The Real News Network.

JUDGE ORDERS RELEASE OF RECORDS THAT MIGHT TIE SAUDI ROYALS TO 9/11



A federal judge’s ruling has raised hopes that we may better understand any possible ties between Saudi Arabia’s ruling family and the 9/11 hijackers — the vast majority of whom were Saudi citizens.

Just ahead of the 18th anniversary of the attack, US District Judge William J. Zloch ruled that the FBI unlawfully withheld from journalists important parts of its own highly sensitive investigative report on the subject.

Earlier, the FBI had declined to release to the Florida Bulldog — a nonprofit news organization which first broke the news about the ruling — key sections from records of the bureau’s probe of a South Florida-based Saudi family that apparently had ties to many of the 9/11 hijackers.

According to a 2011 Bulldog report (and to a Sarasota Herald-Tribune story published the same day), Mohamed Atta, the 9/11 plot leader, had visited the family of Abdulaziz al-Hijji several times, and phone records documenting communication over more than a year connected them to Atta and 11 other terror suspects. (See below for details.)

Two weeks before the 9/11 attack, the al-Hijjis suddenly left the area, abandoning cars, furniture, clothing, food, and medicine, and leaving the door of a safe ajar. Soon after, they all — including Esam Ghazzawi, the father of al-Hijji’s wife and owner of the home — flew to Saudi Arabia.

Connecting the Florida Family to the Saudi Royal Family

Through its own investigation, WhoWhatWhy discovered that there is a direct link between Ghazzawi and the ruling Saudi royal family.

Ghazzawi served as director of Eirad Management Company, the UK division of Eirad Trading and Contracting Co. Ltd., which among other things holds the Saudi franchise for many multinational brands, including UPS.

Esam’s brother Mamdouh, whose name shows up on public records associated with family properties in the US, was the executive managing director of the parent firm, Eirad Holding Co. Ltd. Eirad has connections to the US government via contracts. In 2008, records show, the State Department paid Eirad $11,733 for rental of facilities, presumably in Saudi Arabia.

And the chairman of Eirad Holding Co. Ltd. — i.e., the Ghazzawi brothers’ boss — was Prince Sultan bin Fahd bin Salman bin Abdulaziz al Saud.

The prince is a prominent member of the ruling Saudi royal family. He is a great-grandson of King Abdul Aziz (commonly referred to as Ibn Saud), founder of modern Saudi Arabia, and grandson of the current king.

A 2009 article in the publication Arab News covering an Eirad awards ceremony for outstanding employees features quotes from Prince Sultan and Mamdouh Ghazzawi as, respectively, Chairman and Executive Managing Director.

A 2017 article in the UK’s Telegraph described Eirad as “the company which managed the [royal] family’s properties, fleet of cars and vast collection of artwork.”

The link between the Ghazzawis and high ranks of the Saudi establishment reopens questions about the Bush White House’s controversial approval of multiple charter flightsallowing Saudi nationals — including princes — to depart the US, beginning about 48 hours after the attacks, without the passengers being interviewed by law enforcement. This was after the identification of the majority of the hijackers as Saudis.

In addition, these revelations draw further attention to a web of relationships that include the long and close business, personal, and political ties between the Bush family and the Saudi royal family.

A Mysterious Disappearance

The al-Hijji family left Florida on August 27, 2001, according to reports released in 2019 by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. (The date had previously been given as August 30.) A counterterrorism agent and an administrator/security agent of the gated community got into the house and reported these findings:

There was mail on the table, dirty diapers in one of the bathrooms … all the toiletries still in place … all their clothes hanging in the closet … TVs … opulent furniture, equal or greater in value than the house … the pool running, with toys in it … The beds were made … fruit on the counter … the refrigerator full of food. … It was like they went grocery shopping. Like they went out to a movie … [But] the safe was open in the master bedroom, with nothing in it, not a paper clip. … A computer was still there. A computer plug in another room, and the line still there. Looked like they’d taken [another] computer and left the cord.

They abandoned three recently registered vehicles, including a brand-new Chrysler PT Cruiser, purchased in mid-August 2001.

The al-Hijji family left in a white van and traveled to another Ghazzawi property in Arlington, VA; then — with Esam Ghazzawi — they went, via Dulles airport and London’s Heathrow, to Riyadh.

Evidence Linking Family to 9/11

The Florida Bulldog reported the following discoveries:

Records subpoenaed from the phone company linked calls dating back for more than a year to and from the house to several of the 9/11 hijackers, and other terrorist suspects, including senior al-Qaeda member, Adnan Shukrijumah,

Mohamed Atta (who crashed a plane into the WTC), and Ziad Jarrah (who crashed a plane in Pennsylvania) were documented by gatekeepers to the Florida complex as visitors to the family. And their license plates were photographed as they went through the gate.

Three of the four men who piloted planes on 9/11 lived within 10 miles of the [al-Hijji/Ghazzawi] family and attended flight schools nearby.

Denial Upon Denial

The FBI failed to provide the information to congressional 9/11 investigators, or to the presidential 9/11 commission. They also did not turn over information connecting the hijackers to other Saudis living in California — which congressional investigators later discovered on their own.

When these investigators turned over to the 9/11 Commission a large body of information on the hijackers that they themselves had acquired, the panel seemed uninterested.

“They did very little with it,” said former Sen. Bob Graham (D-FL), who served as co-chair of the congressional joint inquiry into 9/11, “and their reference to Saudi Arabia is almost cryptic sometimes. … I never got a good answer as to why they did not pursue that.”

The final 28-page section of the congressional report — which deals with “sources of foreign support for some of the Sept. 11 hijackers” — was entirely blanked out when it was released in July 2016. It was kept secret from the public on the orders of former President George W. Bush and is still withheld to this day, Graham said. (See additional revelations reported by WhoWhatWhy.)

Also kept from the public: Esam Ghazzawi and Abdulaziz al-Hijji had been on the FBI watch list — even before 9/11.

In response to the Sarasota Herald-Tribune article, the FBI issued a statement on September 15, 2011, claiming that the occupants of the house had been tracked down and interrogated, and that they were found to have no connections to the hijackers.

In March 2012, Lee Hamilton, former Indiana congressman and vice chairman of the 9/11 Commission, said, “We looked quite carefully at [possible Saudi involvement] and even sent investigators over there, and we found no hard evidence of any linkage to the hijackers. At the end of the day, you have to have hard evidence. Having said that, I will also say that despite our thorough investigation, a lot of questions about 9/11 remain unanswered.”

In a story published August 30, 2019, in Britain’s Telegraph, the FBI is quoted as saying, “At no time did the FBI develop evidence that connected the family members to any of the 9/11 hijackers … and there was no connection found to the 9/11 plot.’’

In court filings seeking to stave off a media Freedom of Information request, the FBI stated that releasing documents relating to this issue will harm “national security.” 

As proof of the sensitivity of the matter, the FBI gave the judge a document dated April 4, 2002, in which the FBI states provocatively that its own inquiries “revealed many connections” between a well-connected Saudi family with a house in South Florida and “individuals associated with the terrorist attacks on 9/11/2001.”

More Denials

Abdulaziz al-Hijji, who rented the Florida house from Ghazzawi and is married to Ghazzawi’s daughter, now lives in London, where he works for his country’s state oil company. In an email to the Telegraph, he made the following assertion:

I have neither relation nor association with any of those bad people/criminals and the awful crime they did. 9/11 is a crime against the USA and all humankind and I’m very saddened and oppressed by these false allegations.

He also denied that he left his home in haste:

No, no, no. Absolutely not true. We were trying to secure the [Aramco] job. It was a good opportunity.

He added the surprising claim that his wife and children followed him to Saudi Arabia a few weeks after he left. But that directly contradicts what the FBI found, including the disarray in the abandoned house, and the bureau’s assertion that the whole family left the country within days of abandoning the Sarasota house.

A former neighbor and close friend of al-Hijji, Tom Bello, told the Sarasota Herald-Tribunehis Saudi friend did not raise any suspicion because of his “easy manner.” But then he remembered something significant:

He felt Americans came to their country to steal their oil and take their money. He said he did not like Americans because of what we did to his country.

He said: “How would you like it if we came to your country and did that?”

The Saudis were bit players. Nothing will come of that except to keep people from looking at JEB Bush, Cheney. Rumsfeld AND the Mossad, who were the REAL masterminds  of 9/11. Highjackers did not fire a missle at the Pentagon, RUMSFELD ordered that TREASON. Highjackers did not plant explosives in the WTC towers, the MOSSAD, as authorized and directed by CHENEY and SHRUB, did. Without pre-planted explosives and without a missile making a hole in the Pentagon and without a FAKE hole in the ground where an (See: "Let's roll" made for Hollywood "heroic patriots" tear jerking narrative M.I.C. LIES) airliner "disappeared into", you DO NOT have .

However, WITH ALL THAT FAKERY, TREASON AND CAREFULLY PLANNED MASS MURDER, you have your "New" Pearl Harbor "excuse" to go FULL FASCIST.

The Saudi PATSIES are real and the Saudi money they got is real, but their role was as patsies, period. I am a pilot. There is NO WAY IN HELL that those novice pilots could fly those airliners into the WTC towers, PERIOD.

So, who did? The control center at WTC 7 (undoubtedly designed for this heinous purpose and passed off as an "Emergency Communications Center 😇 for New York" ) handled the remote control software (😈 developed and marketed to the USAF, by pure coincidence, by one of the KEY members of the 9/11 Commission WHITEWASH) on board those airliners as drones, PERIOD. THAT, not the Enron and Worldcom files, is the REASON WTC 7 had to be demolished. Then New York Mayor Rudy Giulliani (and present Trump 🦀 pal) is in this up to his traitorous neck.

Although it will probably never happen, what we need is an order by a judge to get each and every e-mail sent and received by Jeb Bush, that fine fellow that organized the "New" Pearl Harbor PNAC Paper in 1998 and riggged votes in Florida in 2000 by illegally tossing off blacks and anyone else who might not vote Republican, from January 1, 1997 to August 31, 2001. The Jeb Bush neocon PNAC 9/11 Mens rea/Cui bono is so thick you can't cut it with a chainsaw.

In that e-mail treasure trove of planned high treason and mass murder, you would probably learn how the Bush clan had JFK junior killed to make sure Shrub didn't have to run against him. Also, some Quid Pro Quo "negotiations" with certain members of the Supreme Court in regard to the year 2000 Presidential (s)election would be exposed in all their corrupt, filthy, traitorous, fascist glory.

Oh, and while the judge is at it, subpoena each and every person present at that party that was tossed by Donald Rumsfeld, a little less than a month after 9/11, where an amazingly complete list of card carrying PNAC members were present, to explain, IN DETAIL, WTF they were CELEBRATING.

Published 9/11/2019

BY Paul Craig Roberts

Today is the 18th anniversary of 9/11, an event that has turned a once free America into a domestic police state and an international warmonger during the 21st century. America's reputation has been shattered along with the Constitution, international law, and seven nations in whole or part. The massive crimes against the Bill of Rights and the population of seven nations are the direct consequence of 9/11.

Global Research has assembled some articles that indicate that not only Americans but the people of the world have been massively deceived about that event.


Over the years I have reported the findings of scientists, engineers, and architects that indicate that the official story is false. I had an open mind for two reasons. One is that having been an engineering student, I could tell the difference from a building falling down from asymmetrical structural damage and a building blowing up.


The other is that having been involved in policy issues in Washington for a quarter century I knew that such a humiliating defeat suffered by the world's only superpower at the hands of a few Muslim terrorists would have brought instant demands from the White House, Congress, and media for investigation into how every aspect of the American national security state failed simultaneously on one morning.

Instead the White House resisted the 9/11 families demands for an investigation for one year and never delivered a forensic investigation. Instead, the country was given a 9/11 Commission Report that was merely the government's official story of what happened.

No heads rolled. No one was fired or even reprimanded. To hold no one accountable for such a massive failure and humiliating defeat is not a believable response if the official 9/11 story is true.

It is much easier for government to deceive people in a democracy where people assume everything is above board than in a dictatorship where they know it is not.


Paul Craig Roberts is right. However, he should have put quotes around the word, "democracy", as applied to the USA. It is not a coincidence that all but the wealthiest Americans of the Evil Parasites 'R' US class have. since the year 2000, massively lost economic ground along with the unconstitutional loss of freedoms that 9/11 enabled. Oligarchic asset stripping of a country, and simultaneous deliberate impoverishment and cruel oppression of the masses, always go hand in hand.

"You're Forecasting A Revolution" - Household Leverage Ratios By Wealth Distribution

Authored by Global Macro Monitor,

We are just starting to play with the wealth distribution data and will have much more coming your way.  What we have seen so far is shocking.

The distribution of wealth has deteriorated significantly over the past 20 years and is now so skewed toward the top that average U.S. household wealth is close to $1 million, though the median household wealth is only around $70k.

In fact, the aggregate level of wealth of the bottom 50 percent peaked in Q1 2000, the height of the dot.com bubble, and is down almost 10 percent in nominal terms.  Whereas, the aggregate wealth level of the top 1 percent is up almost 120 percent over the same period.


If  I brought a number or a forecast like that to my manager when I was a very young economist working on the World Bank’s capital flows model back in the day, he would say,

“You are forecasting revolution.”

Note the relative leverage ratio of the bottom 50 percent.  For several quarters after the GFC the bottom 50 percent, not all households but in aggregate, were technically insolvent, where debt levels were greater than the value of assets ( > 100 percent on the chart).

These data put the current political climate and debate around debt forgiveness in context. They also reflect the two-speed U.S. economy.

Stay tuned for some more shocking data.

Long pitchforks.

In the post-9/11 world, those who have made such claims, no matter how well-grounded their claims may be, have often been derided and attacked as “conspiracy theorists” for questioning the official claims that the three World Trade Center buildings that collapsed on September 11 did so for any reason other than being struck by planes and from the resulting fires. Yet, it is much more difficult to launch these same attacks against members of a fire department that lost a fireman on September 11 and many of whose members were involved with the rescue efforts of that day, some of whom still suffer from chronic illnesses as a result.

Quote
..., as evidence continues to mount that the official narrative itself is the irrational narrative, it becomes ever more clear that the reason for this media campaign is to prevent legitimate questions about that day from receiving the scrutiny they deserve, even smearing victims’ families and ailing first responders to do so. For too long, “Never Forget” has been nearly synonymous with “Never Question.”

SEPTEMBER 11, 2019

By PEPE ESCOBAR


SNIPPET:

Praying for a Pearl

Eighteen years after the game-changing fact, we all remain hostages of 9/11. US neocons, gathered at the Project for the New American Century, had been praying for a “Pearl Harbor” to reorient US foreign policy since 1997. Their prayers were answered beyond their wildest dreams.

Already in The Grand Chessboard, also published in 1997, former National Security Adviser and Trilateral Commission co-founder Zbigniew Brzezinski, nominally not a neocon, had pointed out that the American public “supported America’s engagement in World War II largely because of the shock effect of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.”

So,👹 Brzezinski added, America “may find it more difficult to fashion a consensus on foreign policy issues, except in the circumstance of a truly massive and widely perceived direct external threat.”

As an attack on the homeland, 9/11 generated the Global War on Terror, launched at 11pm on the same day, initially christened “The Long War” by the Pentagon, later sanitized as Overseas Contingency Operations by the Obama administration. This cost trillions of dollars, killed over half a million people and branched out into illegal wars against seven Muslim nations – all justified on “humanitarian grounds” and allegedly supported by the “international community.”

Year after year, 9/11 is essentially a You Have The Right to Accept Only The Official Version ritual ceremony, even as widespread evidence suggests the US government knew 9/11 would happen and did not stop it.

Three days after 9/11, the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung reported that in June 2001, German intelligence warned the CIA that Middle East terrorists were “planning to hijack commercial aircraft to use as weapons to attack important symbols of American and Israeli culture.”

In August 2001, President Putin ordered Russian intel to tell the US government “in the strongest possible terms” of imminent attacks on airports and government buildings, MSNBC revealed in an interview with Putin that was broadcast on September 15 that year.

No US government agency has released any information on who used foreknowledge of 9/11 in the financial markets. The US Congress did not even raise the issue. In Germany, investigative financial journalist Lars Schall has been working for years on a massive study detailing to a great extent insider trading before 9/11.

Mr Mueller, I presume

Robert Mueller was the Director of the FBI from 2001 to 2003. He was appointed by President Bush only one week before 9/11. Three days after 9/11, Mueller said, “there were no warning signs that I’m aware of” pointing to the possibility of airplanes crashing into buildings.


In fact FBI agents repeatedly accused HQ of blocking myriad investigations before 9/11 that could have prevented it.

In a devastating book, The FBI Accomplice of 9/11 (Documents), written in French and recently translated into English, Patrick Pasin painstakingly tracks all warnings on record: not only to the FBI, directly, but also including the by now notorious “August 6 memo,” which referred to planned attacks involving multiple airplane hijackings. Then National Security Adviser Condoleeza Rice famously dismissed the memo as “very vague,” “very non-specific” and “nothing really new here.”

Pasin meticulously aims to prove that the FBI knew all there was to know about indications toward the possibility of a 9/11. But then the bureau silenced them; buried them; made them disappear; fell into a prolonged comma; and, in quite serious instances, may have even forged false evidence, as in arguably fabricating a list of Muslim hijackers, complete with the finding of indestructible passports, and forging impossible phone calls placed at 30,000 feet.


Trump knows buildings

Discrediting the official, immutable 9/11 narrative remains the ultimate taboo. Hundreds of architects and engineers engaged in meticulous technical debunking of all aspects of 9/11’s official story are summarily dismissed as “conspiracy theorists.”

In the afternoon of 9/11, Donald Trump the real estate developer (not yet President of the United States) was interviewed by phone by Channel 9 in New York.

Fasten your seat belts, because this is incandescent. The serial money quotes start rolling at 5:20:

Channel 9: “There is a great deal of questions about whether or not the damage and the ultimate destruction of the buildings was caused by the airplanes, by architectural defect or possibly by bombs, or after-shocks. Do you have any thoughts on that?”

Donald Trump: “It wasn’t architectural defect. The World Trade Center was always known as a very, very strong building. Don’t forget that it took a big bomb in the basement [in 1993]. Now the basement is the most vulnerable place, because that is your foundation and it withstood that. And I got to see that area about 3 or 4 days after it took place, because one of my structural engineers actually took me for a tour because he did the building. And I said ‘I can’t believe it’. The building was standing solid and half of the columns were blown out. This was an unbelievably powerful building if you know anything about structure. It was one of the first buildings that was built from the outside. The steel, the reason the WTC had such narrow windows is that in between all the windows you had steel on the outside of the building. That’s why when I first looked at it you had big, heavy I-beams. When I first looked at it I couldn’t believe it because there was a hole in the steel. And this was steel that was … you remember the width of the windows of the World Trade Center, folks, I think that you know, if you were ever up there, they were quite narrow and in between was this heavy steel. I said: How could a plane, even a 767 or 747 or whatever it might have been, how could it possibly go through the steel? I happen to think that they had not only a plane, but they had bombs that exploded almost simultaneously. [italics mine]. Because I just can’t imagine anything being able to go through that wall. Most buildings are built with the steel on the inside around the elevator shafts. This one was built from the outside, which is the strongest structure you can have. And it was almost just like a can of soup.”

Channel 9: “You know…we were looking at pictures all morning long of that plane coming into Building #2. And when you see that approach the far side, then all of a sudden within another millisecond the explosion pops out the other side.”

Donald Trump: “Right. I just think that there was a plane with more than jet fuel.” [italics mine]

Donald Trump may be extremely controversial – and all things for all people. But one thing the former real estate developer and current President of the United States does know about is building construction.
