So if my position is merely one of contempt for regular people, then it cannot be that the evidence is unsettling or troubling, but rather merely a clash of personalities. I am then self-deluded to the point of imagining myself all-knowing while silently imagining all others to be stupid. But that’s neither true nor useful. Anyone traveling through life, attending meetings and conferences, family gatherings and parties, cannot help but notice the overall intellectual competency, even excellence, of the professional classes. The technical classes – electricians and mechanics and even accountants, people with a modicum of education and reading ability, also carry high intelligence for less abstract pursuits. But anyone attending a tailgating function cannot help but be discouraged.
All levels of awareness, and all levels of perceptions and intelligence exist among us. If the object is to reach people and mobilize them, the first move would be to fry their TV sets. More specifically, to turn off their news. Television news is a drug, a source of delusion in that it allows people to feel informed while shielding them from information.
There is an explanation for everything, but we don’t always have one on hand. We have to search. And there a few people have undertaken the herculean task. The explanation for the knife-through-butter fake airliner/drone is easy – CGI. But that leads to still other questions and curiosities, like the Roadrunner imprint on the side of the building after the CGI airliner did the impossible. The incurious never even got the far.
So too with the hurricane – it is not that it was there, but rather that it drew no news coverage. It is a classic dog that did not bark. While that seems a fanciful excursion into Star Trek country, the simple fact is that the absence of news coverage is unexplained, and must be explained. All hurricanes are charted and named. Most dissipate without making landfall. When they grow in strength and head towards land, they draw extensive news coverage. (When they actually make landfall, TV news reporters go out and stand in them.) When a hurricane is headed directly at a major population center, civil defense is triggered into action, and the public is notified of impending danger. In New York in September of 2001, none that happened. That is what is strange.
I have no explanation. That is not a stopping point, however. It is a starting point. Incuriosity is no way to live!
Is this general public malaise uniquely American? I have not traveled enough, and so do not know. “You have contempt for us.” No, I don’t. I was you. I am you. I saw things that did not make sense, and filed and forgot them. A jet airliner cutting through a building like a knife through butter cannot be explained by physics. It is impossible. And if it is impossible, even though we see it with our eyes, there must be some other explanation. A building can fall by means of pancake collapse, but not at free-fall speed. That too is impossible. It cannot be explained by physics. A 48-story building (WTC-7) that collapses must leave a sizable seismic footprint. That there is none must be explained.
The government refuses to investigate these phenomena. That too must be explained.
So a skeptic, when dealing with the events of 9/11 and the incurious attitude of most citizens, can only knock on the door to see if anyone is home. When events pass by our eyes that strike us as odd, we should try to learn more. We should not f&f. That is my only message. I cannot explain the events of that day in detail. I am not a scientist, and so enter the palace of mirrors not knowing who to trust. In a state of suspended animation, I face frustration, not knowing what I want to know, and realizing that I might never know. But I can see the forest. It was a military, intelligence and PSYOP, or psychological operation. It is the latter that needs to be punctured to allow us access to the former.

The 9/11 coup was not directed against the George W. Bush regime, per se, although Bush was definitely an expendable asset on 9/11. The goal was to shock the entire U.S. political system – the White House, the executive departments, the Congress, the courts, the political parties, the mass media, publishing and journalism, and the public in general out of their inertia of normal everyday life into a kind of war psychosis and paranoid obsession with phantom threats agreeable to the outlook of the neocon faction, the modern heirs of Carl Schmitt, Hitler’s lawyer. The United States had to be mobilized, on the basis of pure hysteria, for the clash of civilizations. A country which had won two world wars and a cold war, and which in truth had very little to fear from anyone, had to be convinced that it faced an existential threat even greater than that looming over tiny Israel. If Bush could play his part in the transformation, he would be permitted to survive. If not, there was always Cheney, and yet other alternatives in case of need. Notions of Bush or Cheney as masterminds or evil geniuses of 9/11 tend to collapse under the weight of their own absurdity.
The effects of that day are still with us in the form of mass psychosis, with our military now free to attack any other country under any guise. Our economy is under the stress of bullshit economics, and is collapsing as we speak. The recommended remedy for the damage of this bullshit economics is more bullshit economics. But a weakening economy cannot support the extended military machine with almost 800 bases and six (?) ongoing wars in the Mideast, Central Asia, plus the need to surround and intimidate China and Russia. The ability to wage conventional war is always limited by the ability to draw down on the home economy by means of taxes and debt. Since the former is minimized in the U.S., the latter is our current salvation, but cannot last. In the end, conventional war will have to be replaced by cheaper means, and that is where WMD’s come into play. They are quick, cheap and dirty. The only fear is retaliatory strike.
That is our current precarious position. And our salvation is easily seen: Draw down. Back off. Invest in infrastructure, use the incredible energy source brought to bear on the World Trade Center in New York on 9/11 to produce clean and cheap energy for all of us. (That was Nikola Tesla’s objective.) Since no other country wants to attack us, our failure to attack them will not produce confrontation. We need only be prepared to defend ourselves, but not be so armed as to be able to attack the entire planet.

Just a footnote – posts such is this draw larger readership than usual, and fewer comments.

Head-scratching afterthought: Perhaps thoughts of potential retaliation were part of the reason for selection of a domestic target for this demonstration of new weaponry.

Bingo! Voyeurism — watching anonimously — has expanded the “other” to everybody else. Sensationalism ( TV, internet, radio, etc.) is serving up a constant stream of distorted reality. The perception of reality is now the new normal. “Most importantly it fosters a dull, uncritical, viscerally compelled audience perfectly suited for manipulation and control.

News is simply the wrong reality for voyeurs, especially news based upon facts and evidence.

I’ll say though this kind of stuff with alleged top secret technology is the cutting edge of the conspiracy theory business (and I dont say that as ridicule). What exactly the HARRP does in particular is something that has puzzled and intrigued me for a long time. Not being of scientific mind I have a hard time deciphering what it is the govt even claims it allegedly does, but the speculation that it can effect weather and even seismic events blows the doors off assumptions on world events if true. Particularly when you consider the timing of many of these events as does your above commentary. I dont know what it really does and im skeptical of the connection between 9/11 and the hurricane + secret technoogy.
The truth is the planes were hijacked, the planes hit the buildings and the buildings fell. Maybe something else helped the buildings fall perhaps. The real path here is to examine and inquire into the connections between the hijackers and the Saudi /Pakistani intelligence agencies and the logical follow through of whether these connections were known / supported / approved / facilliated by those in our own establishment. Those were the real unanswered questions and redacted info from the 9/11 report. I dont think you need to get into things like weather manipulation to get where we need to go, the truth is probably much simpler if not mundane.

The hurricane threw me for a loop, as it did Dr. Woods. Yes, it was written about, but New York City had no TV coverage, which is where it should have been highlighted. That’s where people get news. You can chart the history of Erin – Wood indicates that it was far more powerful than described after it left Bermuda. It ‘s well known now, but in the last eleven years have you ever heard it mentioned?
We do know that two planes were taken off course that day. [
Two others were not schdeuled to fly that day. I’ve only read this in one place and should not have put it in.)]People who supposedly died that day on hikacked planes were apparently made-up names. [Enterprising non-journalist person checked Social Security death register and could not find names of supposed victims on hijacked flights.] There is no convincing evidence of any Arabs with box cutters. Five, seven or nine of the hijackers were still alive on 9/12. We do not know what hit the towers. The 8 second clip I showed is a military 767, and even that is CGI. (Question: Why no color?) We do know that military drills were up and running that befuddled air defenses and befuddled agency people.It was a large and sophisticated operation.We don’t “know” nearly what you say, and projecting without evidence is fruitless. That’s why Dr. Wood focuses on “what” and not how or who.

Wait for it … wait for it … there it is! Tinfoil jockstrap! You were holding back! (In reality, you’re cautious to an extreme degree, from my view afraid to venture out beyond patriotic boundaries. But you are more curious than most, I’ll grant you.
Now, I want you to examine the following statement:
1. You don’t know what was redacted. No one does. If they were intent on hiding that information, they would simply redact it without openly telling you they were and you would have no clue that they were hiding something. That’s a “limited hangout”, or telling you just enough to mislead you. I suspect it is a blind alley.
2. You have no evidence whatsoever to back up your connections between Saudi/Pakistan intelligence as the sole perpetrators of this catastrophe. We have evidence of Pakistani involvement on some level. Use of 14 Saudi patsies had a purpose as well. But you’re operating in willful ignorance, refusing to look at actual evidence.
Your patriotism is unquestioned (it cannot possibly be rational Americans who did this awful thing, but irrational foreigners would) your objectivity compromised (you are stubbornly refusing to look at evidence), your conclusions unwarranted, but apparently reasonable within the patriotic framework. So you’re on safe ground.
Regarding HAARP, I don’t know anything about it. No one outside that program is talking, as it is highly classified. To say anything about it it unwarranted, as we are all in the dark. In that situation, to blindly trust is the most foolish alternative. But it is patriotic, so that too is on safe ground.

You’re making me laugh today. The difference between the leads involving Saudi-paki intelligence and the 911 hijackers vs what you are putting forth is are that these involve actual evidence and actual human beings whose names can be named. There are tangible leads. Your theories are based on nothing more than hypotheses that, while interesting, rely on some far out leaps with weather manipulation and other things that are borderline wacky and not even necessary to lay out a semi plausible set of circumstances that could amount to an inside job. Whether or not the Saudi-paki intelligence agencies were acting as the flunkies or cut outs for the shadowy forces you believe to be in control is a much simpler and more plausible way to reach the place you are seeking to go. As for haarp, it is theorized by some to do exactly what it is you are implying was done with hurricane Erin so you might as well connect the dots if you’re going there. Now stop acting as a stooge for the Russian govt line and start using your noodle here. I will be here humming the star spangled banner.

Haarp – we do not know anything.
Fact: There was a hurricane off the coast of New York, it was stationary all thorough the morning of 9/11, it was not reported in the city of New York on television. Fact: It is physically impossible for the Twin Towers to be brought down at free fall speed by collision with aircraft, controlled demolition, or nano-thermites. There is no evidence of use of nukes of any size. There is evidence of a weapon of unknown detail that relied on directed energy, but we do not know how that might have been done. Such a weapon needs an energy source, and the presence of the unreported hurricane is odd, as are the measurements of Earth’s magnetic fields that morning, which were extremely erratic at the time of the explosions and collapses. Those are facts.
Fact: There is no credible evidence placing 19 hijackers on planes (although we are told that Mohammad Atta packed a suitcase containing his last will and testament for the trip). There is no credible evidence of passenger jet aircraft striking buildings. It is physically impossible for a passenger aircraft to do what the 9/11 Commission said they did – fly at near-ground level at 560 mph. It is physically impossible for them to be absorbed into a steel building as if it were butter. Facts. (Note – even clipping light poles, as supposedly happened at the Pentagon, is impossible. A light post hitting a jet aircraft wing at 560 mph would sever the wings. Ask Sully Sullenberger what a mere goose does to an aircraft.

We have been through the connections to the Saudi and paki govts and the redacted portions of the 911 report before. The us govt does not acknowledge these facts they have been uncovered and the connections put together by leaks. If the us govt were putting it out as disinformation they could have simply said it was Iraqis and that would have actually aided their goals correct?

As reported by Wall Street Journal 10/29/01, in 8/01, Crown Prince Abdullah sent a letter to Bush in 8/01 saying
The Saudis were wavering at that time, as their commitment to the dollar was a tenuous position. But the US absolutely needs the Saudis to prop up the dollar. Ergo, and this is speculation, the
USuse of 14 Saudi “hijackers” could have been a message to Abdullah that he was expendable.Beyond that, 9/11 induced such psychosis in the American public the the US could have attacked Denmark and received full support.
The publicly redacted document is quite curious, much like the 18-minute gap in the Nixon tapes – even if it is nothing, it looks very suspicious. You think it’s an accident, that they were being transparently secretive? If it looks that way, it was probably meant to look that way. You’re on a garden path.

I like this angle, use leaks and implied information in the blacked out portions of the 9/11 report as blackmail or intimidation against saudi or paki govts to insure their co-operation. But, while its interesting speculation, its no less of a “garden path” than the alternative and in my opinion far less likely. First of all the saudi elite and american elite are so financially intertwined that there is no real prospect of the saudis and americans going their separate ways on issues of real importance like the petrodollar. That letter was specifically in reference to the palestinian issue and by your own definition…since we are allowed to know the letter exists…it cant have any ‘real’ significance and must be a garden path (which i presume to mean some disinformation strategy). These people are a crime syndiacte that happen to be located on a giant pile of gold (oil) and leveraged that into creating a country. Without our support they would all (the royal family) be strung up in the streets by their own people in a month. That is what they were actually referring to in the letter regarding the tight rope they walk as our ally but having to still pretend they care about the palestinians.
The real disinformation is to send you down the garden paths of people like Alex Jones and other fruitcakes. For the cover of anything to really be blown it needs to gain credence with enough people to be taken seriously….when you associate it with things like using secret directed energy weather control technology you might as well be associating it with reptillians diguising themselves as the President as far as easily discrediting anything contrary to the official story.
If ‘they’ really wanted to accomplish all that they’ve accomplished all ‘they’ had to do was make sure some hijackers get on those planes and those planes hit the WTC. Whether the planes alone would be enough to destroy the towers or not is irrelevant.
Instead of asking the simple straight forward:
1) WHY we continue to support the Saudi government when there is direct evidence they at they at the very least got the hijackers in position to get on those planes….and then
2)WHAT did our govt know about it and was there any assistance, or how could they not know given the direct links between our two countries’ security establishment.
Instead here we are arguing about lasers, weather control or other freaky stuff like whatever your claim would be if you are saying those were not actual planes that hit the WTC. The only real discussion is on stuff that is able to be completely marginalized with no real effort. Looks like they did their job well.

Alex Jones is indeed a fruitcake and disinformation specialist. If I was not clear about that, I am now. Stephen Jones is also a garden path man, as is this Gage fellow. I only have limited trust in two people right now, and it is not them, and could change, as it is a hall of mirrors.
The fact that the hijackers were of Saudi nationality is nothing important. They were patsies. Any patsy needs a contact and monitoring – they have to be kept out of jail and such, be too stupid to figure things out, perhaps psychotic. (One was a pilot for an Egyptian airline who was quite surprised on 9/12 to find out what he had done on 9/11.) The intelligences agencies recruit such people, and chose Saudis for a reason. I don’t know that reason, and speculated on the letter which was in the WSJ – that is a trusted source, in my mind, as it is read by the powerful, who need good information.
There is no credible evidence that any hijackers were on any plane. Passenger manifests list no Arab names, and the real people who were really murdered on the plane that supposedly hit the Pentagon (I assume they were flown somewhere else -and murdered, as there really were autopsies performed on them) – there was no DNA form any hijackers – no Arabs, as the FBI admitted.
Why do we support the Saudis? There was a bargain struck between the House of Saud and FDR that we would keep them in power in perpetuity if they played ball with us.
What did our “government” know? There is a shadow behind the real government, and many people in government who know elements of the truth about 9/11, that it was a domestic terror operation, who cannot speak for fear of losing job or death. The mutherfuckers that pulled this off would do anything. That much is clear.
You must exposes yourself to real evidence, the kind that does not portend to have the answers, but merely lays out the facts. You want it to be Saudis and Pakistanis, but you’ve no evidence … you’re doing confirmation bias.
