STRATEGIC DECEPTION DESK

FREE WILL & A FREE MIND ARE THE BULWARKS OF PERSONAL LIBERTY

Expose Government Complicity in the WTC, Pentagon Attacks
1,000 Turn Out In Oregon To
Hear Mike Ruppert Expose
Government Complicity in the
WTC, Pentagon Attacks
http://www.copvcia.com/stories/nov_2001/lucy.html
12-5-1

(FTW) - On November 28th an estimated 1,000 people came from as far away as
Seattle and San Francisco to Portland State University to see FTW
Publisher/Editor Mike Ruppert give a 2 hour lecture and documentary
presentation on the events surrounding the September 11th attacks and their
aftermath. Starting with an offer of $1,000 to anyone who could show that
any of the sources he cited were not authentic or misrepresented, Ruppert
launched into an display of more than 40 visual exhibits showing government
complicity in and foreknowledge of the attacks.
The event was organized by the campus newspaper The Rear Guard and its
editor Dimitris Desyllas. I never expected that we would have this kind of
turnout, Desyllas said. But it is obvious that the public has very deep
concerns about what we are being told and what the government is doing. We
eventually brought in 860 chairs and there were people all around the walls
and on the floor. One of the volunteer videographers at the event was a
Native American spiritual teacher of the Dakota Sioux nation, Skip Mahawk.
Mahawk, then with the 101st Airborne Division, won the Congressional Medal
of Honor at the legendary 1969 Vietnam War battle known as Hamburger Hill.
Mahawk refused to accept the decoration.
Ruppert's lecture was full of documentary evidence. After pointing out -
among other things - that the Chief of Pakistani intelligence (approved for
his position by the CIA) ordered a $100,000 wire transfer to lead hijacker
Mohammed Atta; that the Bush family had business dealings with the bin Laden
family through the Carlyle Group, that the U.S. and British governments had
extensive military deployments already in the area before the attacks, and
that the Bush administration had ordered the FBI to stop investigating two
relatives of Osama bin Laden living near CIA headquarters this January,
Ruppert launched into the centerpiece of the lecture which was a visual
presentation of his timeline of events around September 11th - which left
some members of the audience in tears.
Special attention was also paid to a newly resurrected Unocal pipeline to
transport oil and natural gas from the Central Asian republics to the
Pakistani coast for sale to China and Japan. Henry Kissinger is on both ends
of that deal.
Audience reaction and anger was strongest as Ruppert presented selected
quotes from The Grand Chessboard, a 1997 book by former Carter National
Security Advisor and member of the Trilateral Commission, Zbigniew
Brzezinski. Those quotes - along with maps of Central Asia - indicated
clearly that the current war had been in the planning stages for at least
four years. Two particular quotes from Brzezinski indicating the need for a
Pearl Harbor-like attack evoked boos and hisses for the intelligence expert
and professor who also served in the Reagan Administration.
Ruppert closed the lecture with an analysis of the assault on American civil
liberties since September 11th in the form of the so-called PATRIOT Act and
several unilateral decisions made by President Bush and Attorney General
John Ashcroft which have effectively nullified three amendments to the Bill
of Rights and taken away part of another. He also showed documentary
evidence from Congress supporting his claim that the Bush administration was
going to loot the Social Security Trust Fund.
The audience responded to the lecture with a two minute standing ovation.

Dude, this is getting ridiculous. Learn how to link to these articles or just post the parts you think are important.



Generally speaking, the errors in religion are dangerous; those in philosophy only ridiculous.

And another new topic!

It is nice that you found a few articles about conspiracy theories involving 9/11. A simple web search with the right keywords will net tens of thousands articles like these. The only thing more abundant then 9/11 conspiracy theories on the web is porn.

You are of course aware, that the Cospiracy Theory presented here is a different one from the one you gave us before, are you?

Ignoring the part at the end about 'why did they not shout the planes down?' for now, the articles present a rather accurate if biased picture of what happened. The thing with Osama's kidneys appears to be an urban legend from what I have heared.

Yes, Bush and his flunkies are closely related to the US oil industry. No suprise there. And yes, the Bush adminstration appears to have tried to talk with the taliban, giving the oil priority over terrorism concerns. And yes those talks do not appear to have led anywhere. Also only few people will deny, that Bush took advantage of the possibilities the 9/11 attack gave him.

A coincidence that the WTC was bombed 'a month after the talks went sour' as they say. But do they have anything to prove, that it was not just a coincidence?

How much of it was a coincidence? Wouldn't the Taliban ask Osama to keep a low profile as long as they had a chance to get money from the US. Did not Osama attack the US before 9/11 without there being any advantage for the US. How long a time difference would be admissable to connect the two events? A month? If it had happened half a year after talks went sour would it still be a 'coincidence'?
