Gold Star For Robot Boy

Michael Meacher:

"First, it is clear the US authorities did little or nothing to pre-empt the events of 9/11. It is known that at least 11 countries provided advance warning to the US of the 9/11 attacks. Two senior Mossad experts were sent to Washington in August 2001 to alert the CIA and FBI to a cell of 200 terrorists said to be preparing a big operation (Daily Telegraph, September 16 2001). The list they provided included the names of four of the 9/11 hijackers, none of whom was arrested.
It had been known as early as 1996 that there were plans to hit Washington targets with aeroplanes. Then in 1999 a US national intelligence council report noted that "al-Qaida suicide bombers could crash-land an aircraft packed with high explosives into the Pentagon, the headquarters of the CIA, or the White House".
Fifteen of the 9/11 hijackers obtained their visas in Saudi Arabia. Michael Springman, the former head of the American visa bureau in Jeddah, has stated that since 1987 the CIA had been illicitly issuing visas to unqualified applicants from the Middle East and bringing them to the US for training in terrorism for the Afghan war in collaboration with Bin Laden (BBC, November 6 2001). It seems this operation continued after the Afghan war for other purposes. It is also reported that five of the hijackers received training at secure US military installations in the 1990s (Newsweek, September 15 2001). "

Nafeez Ahmed:

"Once upon a time, the CIA trained, financed and supported Osama bin Laden and his mujahidin networks in Afghanistan to repel the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. After the end of the Cold War, bin Laden turned against the West and we no longer had any use for him. His persistent terrorist attacks against us for more than a decade, culminating in 9/11, provoked our own response, in the form of the ‘war on terror.’ This is the official narrative. And it’s false. Not only did Western intelligence services continue to foster Islamist extremist and terrorist groups connected to al-Qaeda after the Cold War; they continued to do so even after 9/11."

Hans-Christian Ströbele:

"Ich hatte mich schon vor Jahren mit den Unstimmigkeiten rund um die Ereignisse vom 9.11. 2001 in den USA befaßt. Da bleibt vieles im Dunkeln und Widersprüche sind unaufgelöst. Das liegt vor allem an der restriktiven Informationspolitik der US-Administration.
Nach meiner Auffassung spricht vieles dafür, daß in den US-Sicherheitsdiensten viel mehr bekannt war, als bisher zugegeben wird. Auch Verwicklungen solcher Stellen halte ich für möglich."

Viele unbeantwortete Fragen. Danke fürs Zweifeln an dieser Verschwörungstheorie.

garantiert hatte die us-regierung da die finger drin. und heutzutage glauben selbst östliche leute an die simple "atta"-theorie....

ZDF-Aufklärung kläglich gescheitert: "Der 11. September - Die wahre Geschichte"

"Die Geschichte des hochrangigen FBI-Agenten O’Neill ist in Deutschland weniger bekannt, aber natürlich nichts Neues. Verschwörungstheoretiker sehen in seiner Biografie ein Indiz dafür, dass die US-Regierung selbst hinter den Anschlägen stecken könnte. Oder sie zumindest billigend in Kauf nahm, um Kriege aus wirtschaftlichem Interesse führen zu können. Schließlich seien die Warnungen vor Al Qaida konsequent überhört und einer der hartnäckigsten Jäger von Osama Bin Laden kurz vor dem 11. September abserviert worden. Die Autoren Marc Brasse und Florian Huber der szenischen Dokumentation versprechen „die wahre Geschichte“, eine vollmundige Floskel, die hier nicht wirklich berechtigt ist."

"The secret services must become more transparent if they are to halt the spread of damaging conspiracy theories and increase trust in the Government, claims a leading think tank.
A Demos report published today, The Power of Unreason, argues that secrecy surrounding the investigation of events such as the 9/11 New York attacks and the 7/7 bombings in London merely adds weight to unsubstantiated claims that they were "inside jobs".
It warns of the dangers posed by conspiracy theories – from hindering counter-terrorism work by reducing public trust in the Government, to encouraging new alliances between extremists based on such theories – and recommends the Government fight back by infiltrating internet sites to dispute these theories."

Shortly after taking office on January 20, 2009 President Obama appointed Harvard law professor (and personal friend) Cass Sunstein to the post of administrator of the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs. In June 2009 Sunstein published an essay in The Journal of Political Philosophy entitled "Conspiracy Theories: Causes and Cures," in which he provided an "analysis" of conspiracy theories, viewing them, as his title indicated, as "caused" by psychological conditions and requiring "cures", i.e., elimination. The article led to an outcry by civil libertarians of all political stripes, who especially singled out for protest Sunstein's call for covert "cognitive infiltration" by government agents of organizations the government deems "conspiracist".

Because Sunstein explicitly states that "9/11 conspiracy theories" are his main focus, virtually all interpreters have agreed that Sunstein's call for what is essentially another Cointelpro Operation is directed specifically against the 9/11 truth movement. (Cointelpro, or "Counter Intelligence Program", was the FBI's name for its high-priority operations to infiltrate, provoke, undermine and disable civil rights, socialist, antiwar, black power and Native American movements during the late 1950s and the 1960s.) The fantastic picture Sunstein paints of the 9/11 truth movement as "harmful," "dangerous," and likely to resort to "terrorism" suggests that he is serving a function similar to Philip Zelikow's during the Bush/Cheney years; in his own way, Sunstein too is a "myth-maker."

In his new book COGNITIVE INFILTRATION David Ray Griffin has provided the first truly adequate response to Sunstein's deeply-flawed and legally-questionable arguments. Griffin penetrates the obfuscation and phony scholarship employed by Sunstein to create the illusion of a rational critique of the 9/11 truth movement's alternative account of the events of September 11, 2001. Griffin presents a series of ten theses put forward by Sunstein, and shows that each is fundamentally flawed. Further, he demonstrates that Sunstein is unable to avoid numerous self-contradictions, either explicit or implied, that together amount to an internal, hidden counter-argument to his own position, which Griffin, in a novel and entertaining approach, brings out as an ironic "esoteric" meaning of Sunstein's essay.

Griffin demonstrates that Sunstein is completely unable to refute the major positions of the 9/11 truth movement, and doesn't actually even try to do so. Instead, Sunstein has produced a pseudo-scholarly fake "analysis" as a basis for a call for the government to infiltrate and neutralize the movement through activities which create "cognitive dissonance," clearly not the least bit different from the FBI's Cointelpro operations. But in so doing Sunstein has provided Griffin the means to demonstrate yet again that defenders of the official account of 9/11 actually cannot proceed by using reason and fact. They are forced to resort to disinformation, suppression of evidence, lies, illogic, threats and intimidation, always with the same result: failure. The more people study the events of 9/11 the more certain they become that the government and its media outlets are lying.

Gudo Knopp ist ein schmieriger Revisionist, dessen populistische Darstellungen unseriös sind.
Ein Truther ist er nicht, und auf Truther-Seiten zu verlinken während dem vermeintlichen Gegner ironisierend das gleiche Ettikett angepappt wird, ist eine beliebte Taktik des Infokriegertainments - same same, but differnt.

"Wahrheitsbewegungs"-Erweckungsprediger - no thanx!
