This is laughable ...seeing how they inject thinly veiled liberal propaganda in on a nightly basis.

These people are commonly referred to as neocons and they are not beholden to the US and our constituion but to some other entity that keeps the wealth and power in as few of hands as possible...

I don't know how deep it goes.

I agree. Bush's version of what happened on 9/11 is the most outrageous of all the conspiracy theories as I will show in this essay and the evidence it links to.

For four months I've been waiting in vain for the North American media to pursue questions about the startling events of September 11th. Here's what I want to know: The multiple hijackings are unprecedented. The first occurs at 7:45 in the morning. It's a full hour before the first plane hits the World Trade Center. But it's an hour and 20 minutes -- and after the second plane hits - that the President allegedly becomes informed. Think about that. Then, he gives no orders. Why? He continues to listen to a student talk about her pet goat. Why? It's another 25 minutes until he makes a statement, even as flight 77 is making a bee-line for Washington, DC. In the almost two hours of the total drama not a single U.S. Air Force interceptor turns a wheel until it's too late. Why? Was it total incompetence on the part of aircrews trained and equipped to scramble in minutes? Well, unlike the U.S. Air Force, I'll cut to the chase. Simply to ask these few questions is to find the official narrative frankly implausible. The more questions you pursue, it becomes more plausible that there's a different explanation: namely, that elements within the top U.S. military, intelligence and political leadership - which are closely intertwined - are complicit in what happened on September the 11th. Why U.S. complicity, you ask?

Scholastic withdrew the guide, bowing to pressure from the Left.

We have rewritten this guide to focus more sharply on the issues of the docudrama as well as the background events.

Sex? Gays? Terrorists? God? In BushCo's fear-drunk world, only one question really matters.

1. Of two equivalent theories or explanations, all other things being equal, the simpler one is to be preferred.

1a. Never assume a massive, yet invisible conspiracy to control everything when petty evil will do.

1b. Never assume evil when simple stupidity and incompetence will do.

2. When a venerable, old scientist says that something is possible, he's usually right. When a venerable, old scientist says that something is impossible, he's probably wrong.

"There was massive complicity in this attack by U.S. government operatives." If that feels like a skip off the cliff of established reality, more Americans are in free fall than you might guess. There are few more startling measures of American distrust of leaders than the widespread belief that the Bush administration had a hand in the attacks of Sept. 11 in order to spark an invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq. A recent Scripps Howard/Ohio University poll of 1,010 Americans found that 36 percent suspect the U.S. government promoted the attacks or intentionally sat on its hands. Sixteen percent believe explosives brought down the towers. Twelve percent believe a cruise missile hit the Pentagon. Distrust percolates more strongly near Ground Zero. A Zogby International poll of New York City residents two years ago found 49.3 percent believed the government "consciously failed to act."

This book is not about assassinations, at least not solely about assassinations. It is not just another book about who murdered President Kennedy or how or why. It is a book about power, about who really controls the United States policies, especially foreign policies. It is a book about the process of control through the manipulation of the American presidency and the presidential election process. The objective of the book is to expose the clandestine, secret, tricky methods and weapons used for this manipulation, and to reveal the degree to which these have been hidden from the American public. ... But the important thing to understand is the control and the power and all of the clandestine methods put together. Much of the information in the book has been published before in the magazines Computer and Automation and People and the Pursuit of Truth, both edited and published by Edmund C. Berkeley, Newtonville, Mass. ... References to documentation of this evidence are given throughout the book. The book is dedicated to Representative Henry B. Gonzalez for his singular courage in standing against the forces of evil.
