Template:911tm

The 9/11 Truth Movement is a collection of groups and researchers questioning the official account of 9/11 who disagree with the mainstream media's account of the September 11, 2001 attacks. The 9/11 Truth Movement are people who have publicly declared that they are part of the "9/11 Truth Movement; is informal, decentralized and occasionally fractious; its members convene by electronic mailing lists, ongoing local meetings, and national and international public conferences.

Template:Sep11

Characteristics

The 9/11 Truth Movement embraces a political diversity of members, including "left," "right," pacifists, paleoconservatives, Greens, anarchists, and libertarians. While the mainstream media has mostly ignored the 9/11 Truth Movement, alternative media on the Internet, including talk-radio hosts like Alex Jones, and publishers like Larry Flynt of Hustler magazine, have addressed the presence of the Movement and some of the unanswered questions. Some of the questions asked by activists and researchers in the 9/11 Truth Movement were also put forth by the 9/11 Family Steering Committee to the 9-11 Commission in the hopes they would be responded to during the public hearings.

Within the 9/11 Truth movement, some activists are considered more radical than others. Some labelers have ascribed the acronyms "MIHOP" (Made It Happen On Purpose) and "LIHOP" (Let It Happen On Purpose) to designate two camps. Also "ECREP" (Extraordinary Claims Require Extraordinary Proof).

While some maintain that the US government was intentionally negligent, allowing blame for 9/11 to remain on Muslim hijackers, others argue that the attacks were engineered by elements within the government, and not by Arabs (in other words, the alleged Arab hijackers were, at most, patsies). These activists argue that the physical evidence of rapid falls of the three WTC skyscrapers could not have occurred as the result of aerial collisions. Researchers Jim Hoffman and Steven E. Jones, promote the concept that pre-planted explosives caused the collapses of the WTC towers, suggesting that only insiders with full knowledge of the attacks could have gained access to and wired the buildings.

Popular books on the topic include David Ray Griffin's aforementioned The New Pearl Harbor, Crossing the Rubicon by Michael C. Ruppert, The Terror Timeline by "Paul Thompson", and The War on Truth by Nafeez Ahmed. Some of the movement's popular videos have been "The Great Deception" and "The Great Conspiracy" by Barrie Zwicker, and "Truth and Politics" and "9/11 and American Empire" by David Ray Griffin. In 2006 actor Charlie Sheen spoke out on the Alex Jones show in support of an independent investigation into the 9/11 attacks, an interview which was subsequently covered by CNN Showbiz Tonight.

History of the Movement

Origin

Alex Jones makes many predictions on his radio show, and because he happened to predict that a known terrorist would commit an act of terrorism he credits himself with predicting the US Government would orchestrate the 9/11 Attacks and blame it on Bin Laden, or some other CIA asset . He claims to have made those statments six weeks before the terrorist attacks and called his alerts Operation Expose The Government Terrorists. Thus has Jones been refered to as the progenitor of the movement .

Almost immediately after the terrorist attacks, 9/11 conspiracy theories alleging government complicity or cover-up appeared.

The first book on the subject, 9/11 The Big Lie, was published in France in March 2002 by Thierry Meyssan, President of Voltaire Network. He emphasized anomalies in the photos of the Pentagon. His work has since been the subject of multiple critiques, which allege Meyssan's book is a form of misdirection.,, ).

Around the same time, Bin Laden: The Forbidden Truth was published in France by Jean-Charles Brisard and Guillaume Dasquie, documenting media reports in publications like the Times of India that the US government had told numerous allies it was going to invade Afghanistan several months before 9/11. Up until 2004, Germany produced the largest number of books questioning the official 9/11 narrative; three of them, by Andreas von Bülow, Gerhard Wisnewski and Mathias Bröckers, were best-sellers, as were the aforementioned French works.

In June 2002, the group Unanswered Questions held an event at the Washington National Press Club. Various officials and some 9/11 family members used the event to call for a full investigation and greater transparency around the events of 9/11. At that time the Bush administration was working to oppose such an inquiry .

Deception Dollar

The first work in English was The War on Freedom by Nafeez Ahmed in July 2002, emphasizing geopolitical motives, soon followed by Michel Chossudovsky's book, War and Globalization - The Truth Behind September 11th. In September 2002 Eric Hufschmid's Painful Questions was published, which promotes a controlled demolition thesis of the destruction of the WTC towers.

While these books inspired many activists of the 9/11 Truth Movement, others came to the movement via websites, e-mail and demonstrations. Indymedia websites, for example, also played a role in promoting the questioning of the mainstream media account of 9/11 early on. Canadian journalist Barrie Zwicker aired a series on Vision TV titled "The Great Deception" in January and February 2002, the first televised questioning of the common account that charged a deliberate effort to allow the attacks to happen via suppression of the normal air defense systems over New York and Washington.

In 2002, Rep. Cynthia McKinney, D-GA, became an icon of the movement when she questioned whether George Bush had foreknowledge of 9/11. In November 2003, the 911 Visibility Project held the first coordinated national activism protest for 9/11 truth activists. In March 2004, came the book The New Pearl Harbor by the academic and theologian David Ray Griffin, providing a methodical, deductive framework. In 2004, Michael C. Ruppert's Crossing the Rubicon was published, which claimed to identify key insider suspects in the 9/11 attacks and provide an examination of their context: petroleum, geopolitics, narcotraffic, intelligence and militarism. In 2005 Webster Tarpley's 9/11 Synthetic Terror: Made in USA tried to make a link between 9/11 and previously known models of false flag state-sponsored terrorism such as Gladio or the Red Brigades.

Evolution

On January 8, 2002 in San Francisco, a rally and march on Senator Dianne Feinstein's office took place to demand a Congressional Investigation of 9/11. A delegation of activists from peace and human rights organizations met with Senator Feinstein's and Senator Barbara Boxer's staffers and raised key questions about 9/11. That month, President Bush and Vice President Cheney asked Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle to limit the investigations to "intelligence failures."

The 911 Visibility Project distributed thousands of STOP the 9-11 COVER-UP signs at the anti-war protests of March 20, 2004, which received national press exposure and served to kick start the national 9/11 Truth Movement. Also in March of 2004, the first International Inquiry into 9/11 was hosted in San Francisco, California, which brought together 9/11 researchers and activists from all over the world for presentations, dialog, and interviews.

To date, activists in the movement have distributed over 6 million "Deception Dollars" (an anti-Bush parody of the dollar bill that includes addresses of websites which claim to aim to prove that 9/11 was an inside job). David Ray Griffin's address on "9-11 and the American Empire," on April 18, 2005, which was broadcast on C-Span and widely distributed via radio, community access TV, DVD, and in print, expanded the movement considerably.

The 9/11 Truth Movement received more publicity in the fall of 2005, when BYU Physics professor Steven E. Jones announced a paper describing his hypothesis that the WTC towers had been intentionally demolished by explosives. This paper garnered a small amount of mainstream media attention, including an appearance by Jones on MSNBC. This was the first such programming on a major cable news station.

In September of 2005, the US Department of Defense responded to a Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA) request by www.911blimp.net regarding President Bush's incriminating 9/11 witness statements. In denying access to records of visual information provided to the Presidential motorcade on the morning of 9/11, the government did acknowledge that such records do exist. This refuted the long-standing propaganda within the truth movement which had, without any basis in fact, been encouraging people to disregard Bush's well-documented but totally uninvestigated statements as impossible lies.

The Fall of 2005 also saw the first publication of an interactive unified deconstruction of the false-flag official legend of 9/11 at the world's first College of Disinformation Recognition.

On May 16 2006, the Department of Defense, in response to a Freedom of Information Act request by Judicial Watch, released more video of the Pentagon attack, which brought attention to members of the 9/11 Truth Movement. Groups within the 9/11 truth movement including flight77.info, and Scholars for 9/11 Truth, say they are working to get the others of the 70 or more videos of the Pentagon released, even though that helps distract from recognition of the fact that a forensic analysis of the government's first video frame evidence, released back in March of 2002, is sufficient to establish that whatever aircraft is barely shown is, according to the government's own evidence, too small to be a 757, and thus could not possibly have been Flight 77.

Meetings

September 9, 2004: "The 9-11 Citizens Commission"

It has been suggested that this section be split out into another article titled The Citizens' Commission on 9-11. (Discuss)

The 9-11 Citizens Commission: The Omissions Hearings was a meeting by a group of United States citizens who were skeptical of the findings of the 9/11 Commission Report, and who purported to launch their own investigation into the events of September 11th, 2001. The meeting took place on September 9, 2004. The event was sponsored by 9/11 Citizens Watch, with support from 911Truth.org and Ny911truth.org. Kyle Hence, co-founder of 911 CitizensWatch, presented the event and Nicholas Levis, co-founder of Ny911truth.org, helped organize the event.

The event was billed as being modeled after the United States Congressional hearings which were conducted by the 9/11 Commission. A group of citizens heard testimony provided by witnesses, authors, experts and whistle blowers. The witnesses gave their testimony after having been sworn in, and were then questioned by the citizen panel. An audience and representatives from the press were also present. In the introduction, Kyle Hence noted that citizen-panelists were not sworn in at the beginning of the 9/11 Commission, and that swearing in had only started after "we made some noise about it, and the press started to ask some questions." The world premiere of Barrie Zwicker's The Great Conspiracy was performed after the end of the hearings and questions.

Citizen-panelists included Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney, local Imam and doctor Faz Khan, and father of one of the victims of the 9/11 attacks, Bob Mcilvaine.

A list of participants include:

September 11, 2004: "Confronting the Evidence"

Confronting the Evidence: 9-11 and the Search for Truth was its full name and American Free Press participated in this and the previous event, both having been sponsored by Jimmy Walter

June 24, 2006: "9/11 + The Neo-Con Agenda Symposium"

The 9/11 + The Neo-Con Agenda Symposium was held June 24-25 in Los Angeles.

July 2006: "9/11: Revealing the Truth"

9/11: Revealing the Truth -- Reclaiming Our Future was held in July 2006, many members of the Scholars for 9/11 Truth met in Chicago, Illinois, for a conference on 9/11 theories, which was covered by some international media.

Along with their name is a description of their job and what their public statment was. The list does not reflect how central or peripheral the persons are in the movement. For example, Charlie Sheen and William Rodriguez are in the very center of the American movement that alledges that the US goverment orchestrated the event, while people like Curt Weldon aske for more investigations. Non-American people include Iran's president Mahmoud Ahmedinejad who have asked why domestic involvment have not been addresed, Canadian Barrie Zwicker and German Andreas von Bülow who alledged CIA orchestrated the event and Latino American Immortal Technique who has authored several songs. The movement is diverse and no person holds any specific role.

William Woodward professor of psychology at the University of New Hampshire He believes an "elite" group within the federal government orchestrated the September 11th attacks on America .
James Petras Professor Emeritus of Sociology at Binghamton University "The idea that radical Islamists carried out the attacks of September 11 is a "conspiracy theory"; it is more likely that the attacks were the work of a secular group. There is evidence that prior to September 11, Washington had planned to overthrow the Taliban, and it is plausible that Washington used the attacks as a pretext for going to war in Afghanistan."

And all evidence appears to point at the controlled demolition of 3 buildings in the WTC complex"
