The recognition of facts, even when in plain sight, is challenging. Res ipsa loquitur, the facts do speak for themselves, but getting people to notice may not be easy.
Joshua Bell, one of the world’s elite violinists whose CDs Romance of the Violin sold over 5 million copies, played for 45 minutes at an entrance to a Washington, D.C. subway during rush hour. Hardly anyone stopped. The reporting of this phenomenon by Washington Post writer Gene Weingarten won a Pulitzer. People didn’t recognize the brilliance of Bell’s music due to competing and distracting facts:
1.They’re busy; it’s difficult to compete with peoples’ immediate concerns even with brilliance.
2.People pay attention to “platforms,” an office title, stage, or previous history.

Words from a newbie !!
I'm new to blogging.
I would just like to describe why I think 9/11 Truth is so important.
I don't believe in
needless killing,
enciting to kill needlessly or
allowing to kill needlessly
- similar to the 3 laws of robotics in I Robot by Asimov.
I believe the book I Robot is drawing parallels to human behaviour.
Therefore as in the book I draw the logical conclusion from the three laws that we must revolt against tyranny to survive- that's my take.
The expanding empire which has benefitted from 9/11 whether that is an american empire or an empire including america; controlled by the western aristocratic owners of private central banking in some countries or those behind the IMF or whether some other entity or combination of entities, - this empire has benefitted from encouraging needless killing.
I don't mind ruthlessness in business, but I draw the line at:
needless killing (eg 9/11) or
enciting to kill needlessly (eg sending soldiers on revenge invasions for fake reasons) or
allowing needless killing (eg setting up civil unrest to divide and rule)
There seem to be many people who would benefit from the expansion of empire into the middle east.

Vote for thorough 9/11 investigation in Homeland Sec public review
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is in the midst of its
Quadrennial Homeland Security Review. Part of that process is a
Web-based "national dialogue" on the subject. Phase 2 of that
dialogue is presently underway. Participants (anyone is welcome to
participate) are asked to rank priorities related to a number of DHS
goals in the categories of counterterrorism, borders, immigration, and
disasters. Additionally, participants may submit ideas and vote those
ideas up or down (similar to the Barack Obama presidential campaign's
"Citizens' Briefing Book").
http://www.homelandsecuritydialogue.org/dialogue2/
Under the "counterterrorism" category, I submitted the following idea
(including one embarassing typo):
Idea:
The United States, in cooperation with other nations, should
complete an independent, impartial, thorough, and nonpartisan
investigation into the events of September 11, 2001.
Why it's important:
Much of our nation's present counterterrorism policy was shaped by the
horrific events of September 11, 2001. Unfortunately, a thorough
investigation of those events has yet to be completed. We would be
Government-Run Abu Dhabi Media Company Invested $100 Million To National Geographic Entertainment To Finance Feature Films
Hello Truthseekers & Truthtellers,
Yesterday we saw the second attmept by the National Geographic Channel to create confusion among the masses about real facts concerning 9/11. I received this article from a reporter about a funding source of National Geographic Entertainment. As the saying goes, " follow the money". Here's a few words from the article and the link:
Despite the drawbacks, the region’s ambitions to house world-class centers for creation and production cannot be written off, partly because of the sheer sums proponents are willing to spend. Last fall, Imagenation, a subsidiary of the government-run Abu Dhabi Media Company, invested $250 million each with Participant Media and Hyde Park Entertainment and $100 million with National Geographic Entertainment to finance feature films. Work on the first phase of Abu Dhabi’s own media production zone, one geared toward television, is under way.
Take Care Matt
Exchange of emails (March 2009) with Robert Erickson, producer of the National Geographic special on 9/11
A special on 9/11 has just been shown on the National Geographic Channel, produced by Robert Erickson. Robert also conducted interviews with me and others. In March 2009, Prof. David Ray Griffin and I and Gregg Roberts exchanged emails with Robert Erickson which demonstrate our efforts to get Mr. Erickson and his team to be accurate and fair in their treatment of our scientific work regarding 9/11 – particularly the evidence for the use of explosives in the World Trade Center destruction. For the record, then, I have pulled together our exchanges of emails.
Robert Erickson, emailed David Ray Griffin on 3/27/09:
"if Jones is surprised that we just placed bags of thermite around the column...what else would Jones have suggested? "
I was informed of the question above and I responded on 3/28/09 as follows:
Robert,
Bags of commercial thermite set against a steel column -- what a pathetic "experiment." Not anywhere close to representing my views, as you must know, from our discussion about the red/gray chips and the crucial distinction between ordinary thermite and super-thermite! What a terrible and unfair straw-man joke you are evidently trying to pull.

The Corbett Report
01 September, 2009
In a move sure to send shockwaves through the online activist community, Jonathon Elinoff—activist, researcher, and the filmmaker behind the Core of Corruption documentary series—has released a video archive of dozens of network news broadcasts detailing controversial and suppressed news stories.
The archive, compiled over a period of several years, features actual network news coverage of the Trilateral Commission, the shadow government that went into operation on 9/11, the Bohemian Grove and numerous other topics that the nightly news almost never mentions. Many of the videos (if not all) are being released online for the first time.
Just a few of the incredible videos currently available in the archive include:

Gandhi’s Top 10 Fundamentals for Changing the World by Henrik Edberg.
Gandhi’s Top 10 Fundamentals for Changing the World
by Henrik Edberg.
Gandhi’s Top 10 Fundamentals for Changing the World“You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.”
“The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world’s problem.”
“If I had no sense of humor, I would long ago have committed suicide.”
Mahatma Gandhi needs no long introduction. Everyone knows about the man who lead the Indian people to independence from British rule in 1947.
So let’s just move on to some of my favourite tips from Mahatma Gandhi.
1. Change yourself.
“You must be the change you want to see in the world.”
“As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world - that is the myth of the atomic age - as in being able to remake ourselves.”
Special 11-Day FaxForTruth Campaign, Day One: Bernie Sanders
http://faxfortruth.com/wordpress/?p=23
In honour of the eighth anniversary of 9/11 coming up in 11 days, FaxForTruth.com is holding a special 11-day campaign in support of WeAreChangeLA’s and Luke Rudkowski’s excellent work delivering copies of the “Active Thermitic Material” paper to key officials in government. We do this in solidarity and in association with all the other events taking place in the week leading up to the eighth anniversary of 9/11 and we hope to encourage a climate of activism and optimism leading up to September 11.
FaxForTruth is an activist initiative done in support of 9/11 truth. We attempt to organize mass fax writing campaigns using the internet as our key tool. Many sites exist online that you can use to send free faxes over the internet. All you need is an email address. We have found faxzero.com to be the easiest and best to use, though we are not affiliated with faxzero.com in any way. We are demanding answers and action on this issue, and for 11 days we will be asking you to send one fax per day to key individuals in politics and the media. We hope you will take five minutes out of your busy day for the next 11 days and send some faxes for 9/11 truth.
