The Ridenhour Prizes are the only DC-based awards that celebrate courage in American life.

FACEBOOK COMMENTS - EDMONTON: I just returned from an incredible event about 9/11 truth. The amount of evidence that a controlled demolition and cover up of the truth happened along with the hastily removal of crime scene material was simply staggering. At this meeting, there were engineers, pilots and firefighters. The eloquent Richard Gage, AIA member with 40 years of experience in architecture represented the “1,600 Architects & Engineers for 9//11 Truth” organization and did an incredible presentation. People are waking up! Master photographer Con Boland

Lynette Bondarchuk of Edmonton Small Press said "glad to hear it went well Doug (and sorry again we couldn't make it out) - very important to have reasonable scientific debate about this issue, and leave the conspiracy theories to the online tinfoil crowd. :)

"Notch up another successful day of 9/11 Truth action" After enduring a snow storm over the past 48 hours. The clouds cleared and a warm sun came through on one of the most important days in the week before Richard' Gage's "9/11 Blueprint For Truth" speaking event in Edmonton. Today we handed hundreds of leaflets, and will continue to so each day until Richard arrives and the doors open at the Stanley A. Milner Library main theatre Friday March 30, 2012 @ 7PM.

I came out of retirement as a 9/11 truth activist for the next 2 weeks to help promote Richard Gage's "9/11 Blueprint for Truth" speaking event in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada (one stop along Richard's cross Canada Tour). This is one more example of how to put the issues of 9/11 on the hearts and minds of Canadians using the highly effective civil information[ing]. All I did was show up with some leaflets at to a rally here in Edmonton organized by the Occupy Edmonton movement. One Year ago February 21, 2011 Dr Niels Harrit, his wife and I did 9/11 civil info actions at this exact same square when the Libyans were rallying to oust Gaddafi from Libya...

"The Iranian government has professed on the tongue of its president Ahmadinejad that it does not believe that al-Qaida was behind 9/11 but rather, the US government," the article said, according to Iranian media. "So we may ask the question: why would Iran ascribe to such a ridiculous belief that stands in the face of all logic and evidence?"

Ahmadinejad said in New York that the "mysterious September 11 incident" had been used as a pretext to attack Afghanistan and Iraq. He had also previously expressed scepticism at the US version of events.

Edmonton Journal - Sept 15 , 2011

More than a decade after Swissair Flight 111 crashed into the waters off Peggy’s Cove, N.S., new questions have surfaced over what actually caused the plane to go down and how the investigation was conducted.

Tom Juby, a veteran RCMP forensic investigator assigned to the probe, said he uncovered evidence early on that suggested an incendiary device may have been planted on the plane but that he was prevented by his superiors from following up fully on the evidence and was even directed to alter his notes.

After trying for the past several years to get senior RCMP officials to re-examine the case, he said he decided to go public.

“My opinion is it was extremely suspicious and we should’ve continued testing,” Juby, now retired, said Wednesday in a phone interview. “I was shut down.”

Juby is scheduled to appear Friday in a documentary about the Swissair crash on the CBC’s The Fifth Estate.

Graham Thomson of the Edmonton Journal wrote - I received a news release recently that really bothered me. It had nothing to do with Alberta politics or the two leadership races now underway for the Liberals and Conservatives. It had to do with a dinner this Saturday to honour the 157 Canadian soldiers killed in Afghanistan during our combat mission there. The ( $100.00 a plate) dinner will be attended by Alberta Lt.-Gov. Donald Ethell and hear a keynote address by Maj.-Gen. Jonathan Vance, who commanded coalition troops in Kandahar province for nine months.According to the news release, the event was "in jeopardy of cancellation." Simply put, not enough people had bought tickets. The dinner had room for 500 and would financially break even with 350 — but only 60 people had bought tickets when the news release crossed my desk. "We’re surprised that we’ve sold less than 60 tickets to an event dedicated to honouring the brave men and women who have died while serving in our Canadian Forces," wrote the event organizer, Mike McMurray. "We need to sell at least 300 more tickets to the gala dinner or we’re going to be left with little choice but to cancel the event.

It was announced today that Jack Layton leader of the opposition party in Canada passed away: Over my 5 years as an 9/11 activist I had the privilege at meeting many politicians from all political parties from all levels of Government with my quest for a 9/11 Investigation in Canada. They have been for the most courteous and kind even though most who did question 9/11 were mostly silent concerned about their political careers and did not dare open the controversial box of questioning the events of 9/11 in the public eye. I saw Jack Layton 3 times over two elections, once up close when I gave him a book of hope by David Ray Griffin, to read on the plane, and most recently early spring when he spoke from the podium at the Alberta Art Gallery and at Fort Edmonton. How could you not love this guy with so much love for life and Canadians. He like me wanted our troops home from Afghanistan.

Claims that the terror attacks of September 11, 2001 were orchestrated by US intelligence agencies are "complete nonsense," Prime Minister Vladimir Putin told attendees of a youth forum.

­"This is complete nonsense, it is impossible," Putin said on Monday, responding to a question posed by an attendee of the Seliger 2011 youth forum.

"To imagine that US intelligence services did it deliberately, with their own hands, is complete nonsense," the prime minister said. “Only people who do not understand the workings of security agencies can say that. It would be impossible to conceal it.”

Putin added that he could not imagine how "any of the current or former US leaders could have such an idea."

As the 10th anniversary of 9/11 approaches, skepticism over the official explanation of the 9/11 attacks appears to be on the rise. 9/11 “truth movements,” made up of diverse individuals from around the world, are demanding an independent investigation into those horrific events that changed the course of history.

The International Center for 9/11 Studies, for example, is sponsoring four days of Citizen Hearings in the city of Toronto, Canada with the goal of examining “the best evidence that has been discovered in the ten years since the 9/11 events occurred.”

A group of academics – including Niels Harritt, Associate Professor at the University of Copenhagen; Steven Jones, Professor Emeritus from Brigham Young University and Kevin Ryan, former Underwriters Laboratories manager – will be among the participants who hope to persuade the public of the need for another 9/11 investigation.

(AP) The ceremony at the World Trade Center site marking the 10th anniversary of the terrorist attacks will be a solemn but stately event that will include President Barack Obama and a chance for victims' families to view the names of loved ones etched into the new memorial, Mayor Michael Bloomberg said. President Barack Obama and Bloomberg will be joined by the leaders in charge during the 2001 attacks, including former President George W. Bush, former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani and former New York Gov. George Pataki. Current New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie will also be there, he said.Speaking on his weekly radio show Friday on WOR-AM, Bloomberg said the lawmakers will read short poems or quotes. No speeches will be given.

" The Best Things in Life are Negotiable" July 16, 17 Week-end 9-11 Civil Information Actions. Almost one year ago this weekend our small most highly productive group of 9/11 activists were confronted by the Edmonton Police Service, harassed by a alleged agent provocateur enduring his threats, and seriously challenged as a group of activists up-holding their right to freedom of speech, and right to assemble in public places based on CANADA'S guarantees within her BILL OF RIGHTS.

This was not our first confrontation with the police in Edmonton , yet we have managed to stay out of jail and continue with what we do best as activists for 9/11 truth.

JERSEY CITY — New Jersey teachers have a new set of tools for teaching about the 9/11 terror attacks.

New K-12 curriculum providing lessons on 9/11, its causes and context, were formally released this morning at Liberty Science Center in Jersey City.

Written by a volunteer group called 4 Action Initiative — which is made of Families of September 11, Liberty Science Center and the New Jersey Commission on Holocaust Education — the collection of 58 lessons delves into themes such as the historical context of terrorism, human behavior, and remembrance and public memory.

The classes are not mandated for use in New Jersey schools, but Acting State Education Commissioner Christopher Cerf, who was also present at the formal launch, said the state supports its use. "The program is so strong, I assume many, many schools will use it," Cerf said.
