"Let us never tolerate outrageous conspiracy theories concerning the attacks of September the 11th. Malicious lies that attempt to shift the blame away from the terrorists themselves; away from the guilty." - George W. Bush, 11/10/01 speech at the United Nations
Two months after 9/11 the gaping wound in our collective psyche was still fresh. Most of the world was still struggling with the unprecedented enormity of the attacks, acting on the natural desire to come together to find solace and try to make sense of it all. The time was right to cynically parlay that instinctive unity into the widely held belief that any discourse that doesn't adhere strictly to the official storyline is an "outrageous conspiracy theory."
So the president stood up and gave his speech, pronouncing guilt without a shred of proof, while simultaneously launching a preemptive strike against anyone with the nerve to question such incredible irresponsibility. Regardless of whether it was an attempt to simply absolve the government of responsibility for the 3000 murder victims they were supposed to be protecting that day, or an effort to bury something much worse, George W. Bush clearly had something to hide.
There is nothing outrageous or conspiratorial about a genuine quest for the definitive answers that still elude us. What is beyond outrageous is that it's ten years later and there is still no justice for the victims of the worst mass murder in American history and the loved ones they left behind. An unfathomable crime that led to a massive, immediate expansion of government power, with the passage of the Constitution-shredding Patriot Act and the creation of the Department of Homeland Security.
A day that started us down the road to multiple needless, immoral, illegal Middle East wars. Wars against countries that pose no threat to the United States, but that make a lot of money for the war and oil profiteer pimps who fill campaign coffers. Needless wars that are only exponentially increasing the number of people around the world who hate and want to kill Americans. Needless wars costing us trillions that Washington is completely ignoring when it comes to reducing our national debt and fighting the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression.
They tell us these wars on the other side of the world are for our protection, while right here at home they've been making it crystal clear since this economic disaster began that they are far more interested in protecting Wall Street than We the People. This stunning hypocrisy must not go unchallenged. Nor should we blindly accept the official storyline of that most tragic of days a decade ago that set these wars in motion. They tell us not to tolerate "outrageous conspiracy theories" about 9/11 while at the same time expecting us swallow whole an official story that is itself the most outrageous conspiracy theory of all.
Of course, many will continue to attack those of us who refuse to accept a government narrative that flies in the face of logic, sanity and the laws of physics. These people can say what they will, but the longer they focus solely on attacking the messenger while refusing to deal legitimately with the message, the more they project their own fear of what an honest effort might reveal. Anyone truly interested in ending all the speculation and silencing all the "conspiracy theorists" will join the call for the legitimate 9/11 investigation that has yet to happen.
Watch this video, pass it on and check out the links. If there is something wrong with a single aspect of the official story of the 9/11 attacks, there's something wrong with the whole thing.
