On this anniversary of 9/11 please recognize how this rancid political process employs deception in the media. Using politics and ignorance to inflame fear and hatred of Muslims.
The events of 9/11 ushered in an era of false bravado that perpetrated a neocon agenda selling fear from "terrorists" and opening the door to a "War on Terror".

For weeks we have watched as anti-Muslim looney toon extremists protest the construction of a community center and Mosque in lower Manhattan.
As if that wasn't enough, another so-called preacher organizes a book burning for 9/11. The book is the Koran.
Do you remember when every bat shit crazy Muslim went nuts over the Danish cartoons of Muddyhamhead?
Fanatics with no apparent sense of humor came out of the freakin' woodwork to set the world on fire over cartoons!
What will happen if a media whore preacher throws a party and burns Korans?


If you remember the events of 9/11 then you may also remember there were a lot of people that didn't buy the story fed to the public and the media. Nor did people have any faith in the 9/11 Commission's pseudo investigation. It's been a long time with no resolve.
Too many questions left unexplained, left blowing in the wind like a false flag.

This article from Washington's Blog is good place to help you remember as we approach another anniversary of this tragic event...

9/11 Commissioners:

• The 9/11 Commission's co-chairs said that the 9/11 Commissioners knew that military officials misrepresented the facts to the Commission, and the Commission considered recommending criminal charges for such false statements (free subscription required)

• 9/11 Commission co-chair Lee Hamilton says "I don't believe for a minute we got everything right", that the Commission was set up to fail, that people should keep asking questions about 9/11, and that the 9/11 debate should continue
  

• 9/11 Commissioner Timothy Roemer said "We were extremely frustrated with the false statements we were getting"
  

• 9/11 Commissioner Max Cleland resigned from the Commission, stating: "It is a national scandal"; "This investigation is now compromised"; and "One of these days we will have to get the full story because the 9-11 issue is so important to America. But this White House wants to cover it up"
  

• 9/11 Commissioner Bob Kerrey said that "There are ample reasons to suspect that there may be some alternative to what we outlined in our version . . . We didn't have access . . . ." He also said that the investigation depended too heavily on the accounts of Al Qaeda detainees who were physically coerced into talking

• And the Senior Counsel to the 9/11 Commission (John Farmer) - who led the 9/11 staff's inquiry - recently said "At some level of the government, at some point in time...there was an agreement not to tell the truth about what happened". He also said "I was shocked at how different the truth was from the way it was described .... The tapes told a radically different story from what had been told to us and the public for two years.... This is not spin. This is not true." And he said: "It's almost a culture of concealment, for lack of a better word. There were interviews made at the FAA's New York center the night of 9/11 and those tapes were destroyed. The CIA tapes of the interrogations were destroyed. The story of 9/11 itself, to put it mildly, was distorted and was completely different from the way things happened"

If even the 9/11 Commissioners don't buy the official story, why do you?
