What Christiane Said
During her 8/10/2006 appearance on Anderson Cooper's "360" Christiane Amanpour said;
"And there is some evidence that is coming out now, five years after 9/11, that many, many Muslims in England and around the world, according to documentaries that have been produced, are really succumbing to the conspiracy theories. They're really now saying that 9/11 was not al Qaeda; it was a U.S./CIA, Mossad/Israel, Zionist plot, basically designed to cause a war against Islam."
It's important for people who heard the statement in passing, or are reading it now, to place it in the full context of the transcript linked above, from "a special edition of ANDERSON COOPER 360, "Sky Terror.""
Amanpour has a new documentary set to premiere soon on CNN, "In the Footseps of Osama Bin Laden", which explains her latent expertise on terrorism, and the added opinion of Peter Bergen, who followed her.
However, it's just an opinion, and here's another, embodied in the form of a documentary called, "The Power of Nightmares" by British film maker, Adam Curtis;
Both [the Islamists and Neoconservatives] were idealists who were born out of the failure of the liberal dream to build a better world. And both had a very similar explanation for what caused that failure. These two groups have changed the world, but not in the way that either intended. Together, they created today's nightmare vision of a secret, organized evil that threatens the world. A fantasy that politicians then found restored their power and authority in a disillusioned age. And those with the darkest fears became the most powerful.
You can view the documentary in a streaming or downloadable format here, and I strongly urge anyone who has not seen it to make the time to do it. It strips away propaganda like Turpentine strips away old paint.
As far as a catalyst for the radicalization of a Muslim, a citizen of Lebanon hardly has to watch a documentary, he just has to look out the window. Same goes for a citizen of Iraq. They don't need a documentary to tell them about a theory, their neighbors are being blown to bits all around them.
Congratulations, Christiane, you've just joined "Team Propaganda"!

Amazing. Almost funny to see where this is headed. I hope my cell at those detention centers has a good view of a river or lake or something.

Once you know the truth it's truly makes you sick hearing about the bullshit philosophy of terrorism.
911 and other fake terror events prove how easy it is for only a few people to
start a process that causes the deaths of tens of thousands.
911 brought gave birth to an innovative excuse to wage wars -terrorism- THE INVISIBLE ENEMY THAT LURKES BEHIND EVERY CORNER- THE ULTIMATE PARANOIA
Framing the truth movement
Framing the truth movement as a part of Al-Qaeda is the Neocon dream goal. We can only hope that the critical mass is reached before they stage some attack to blame on us.
And Daniel Hopsicker, who only finds evidence of LIHOP but never MIHOP, has spread the libel that the truth movement is "funded by Al-Qaeda". So when i donate to this site or another 911 site, then i'm al-Qaeda or what?
>excuse to wage wars
>excuse to wage wars -terrorism
Yes, and guess what the Israelis have told Condi Rice on her recent diplomatic mission: "we understand the civilian suffering, but we're fighting terrorists" - Condi could not agree more...

hello everyone.
I have produced my own one time podcast. Its the audio from 911 revisited and a few other clips mixed together with some heavy metal music. It really works to get you fired up for 9-11 truth. I played it on my college radio show when i used to have one. If you'll remember i interviewed Jon Gold.

so, anyone at a university, its really easy to get your own radio show and put together stuff like this. and 9-11 blogger, please feel free to add this to your podcasts section. I'm not sure how much longer I'll have access to my free 50 Megs at my old university.

Except for the established fact you can't come up with any evidence to support your claim.

Remember the Iraq war and how bush was scaring the people that Saddam has WMD's and terrorists might get their hands on them and a new 911 might happen.
Well guess what happend after that. The invasion of Iraq and more than 10.000 civilians killed.
Try counting to 10.000 ass****.

One of the most
One of the most irresponsible pieces of slander by a major journalist I've ever seen.
So let me guess this straight: "radical Muslims" are waking up to the fact that terrorism is a state-sponsored industry supported by the US and other Western governments as a means of attacking the Islamic world and enslaving thier host populations, but far from causing these radical youths to disavow the tactic, it's actually ENCOURAGING them to willingy become tools of Western imperialism?
Yeah, that makes sense.
Millions of truth-loving Americans have just been smeared by this little tart as virtual terrorists, or fomenters of terrorism, a charge so ridiculous and so slanderous that it cannnot go ananswered.

BTW, the crucial part of the transcript was not included by reprensor in the main post.
The important thing is that her comment was immediately presaged by Cooper asking what the cause was of this new "radicalism" causing "Muslim youth" to engage in "suicide bombings".
COOPER: You know, Christiane, I think it's hard for a lot of us to comprehend how young men, young Muslim men, in a country like Great Britain, could turn themselves in to suicide bombers.
AMANPOUR: And -- and be so virulently against the United States.
THEN she says:
And there is some evidence that is coming out now, five years after 9/11, that many, many Muslims in England and around the world, according to documentaries that have been produced, are really succumbing to the conspiracy theories. They're really now saying that 9/11 was not al Qaeda; it was a U.S./CIA, Mossad/Israel, Zionist plot, basically designed to cause a war against Islam.
This is what is in the mind-set now of increasing numbers of these young people.
COOPER: It is fascinating.
END
Absolutely stunning.
Ah, now it's becoming clear.
Ah, now it's becoming clear. Apparently Amanpour is married to that insufferable little prick Jamie Rubin.
James served under President Clinton as Assistant Secretary of State for Public Affairs and Chief Spokesman for the State Department from 1997 to May 2000. He was also a top policy adviser to Secretary of State Madeleine K. Albright.
Mr. Rubin is Vice Chairman of the Atlantic Partnership, serves on the board of Columbia University's School of International Affairs and the International Rescue Committee UK, and is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.

My comment to Christiane via
My comment to Christiane via the CNN feedback link posted above:
Hi Christianne,
It's sad that so many American's aren't believing the 9/11 story as explained to them by the corporate media and the government over the last 5 years. Some recent surveys put the figures of those suspecting a government coverup at up to 36% nationwide and around 50% in NYC. Shocking!! I mean, just because the public was lied to and manipulated into believing Saddam had WMDs ready to strike America and were led to support the start of an illegal war, is no reason to doubt everything we are told by government and corporate media.
However, as a prominent journalist with all the resources at CNN at your disposal you can now do your part to alleviate the suspicions of skeptics of the official conspiracy theory. You could start by seeing if you can find and provide the public with answers to the "Eleven (11) Questions Avoided by the Media in Recent Reporting of Department of Defense Violations of Law" published here (and on many other web sites).
http://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/HL0608/S00053.htm
When you are done that, you can also perhaps investigate the points raised in this other article and explain to the CNN audience how they all have an innocuous explanation: "THE TOP 40
REASONS TO DOUBT THE OFFICIAL STORY OF SEPTEMBER 11th, 2001."
http://www.911truth.org/article.php?story=20041221155307646
Finally, perhaps you could do a story on Operation Gladio, the NATO/CIA/MI6 operation which sponsored false flag terror attacks in Europe by extreme rightist and fascist groups but which were then blamed on the radical left and communists. As explained by one of the Gladio agents in sworn testimony:
"You had to attack civilians, the people, women, children, innocent people, unknown people far removed from any political game. The reason was quite simple: to force ... the public to turn to the state to ask for greater security."
http://www.globalresearch.ca/articles/FLO502B.html
You could explain why the 911 terror attacks deffintely are not false flag ops like the murderous terror attacks in Europe sponsored by Gladio There's tons of information about Gladio on the internet, although surprisingly enough you never heard anything about it at all from the corporate media. Hmm, now why would that be do you think?
Anyway Christiane, thanks in advance for checking out these questions and suspicions and reporting to your audience what the real answers are so our suspicious minds can be put at rest and we can all learn to trust and believe the government and corporate media again.
Kind regards

Jamie Rubin had his own weekday/nightly hour-long show on Murdoch's Sky TV here in Britain for a few months.
He was there to provide Murdoch's desired propaganda and convince the British people that we were really at war with Islamo-fascists.
Fortunately, nobody watched the programme and it has been taken off the air.
He had the worst autocue technique i have ever seen btw.
It's a testament to the
It's a testament to the power of truth that despite the ramblings of obvious neo-con shills like Peter Bergen and this Christine person, who have the entire empire media apperatus at their disposal, 36% of the US public reject their bullshit.
This percentage is in fact growing quickly. The reason is that once someone learns the truth, there is absolutely NO TURNING BACK. You will never again listen to their crap. This whole recent plot is an obvious false flag event, complete with the big fish that got away.
I remember writing Senator Graham when he retired from my state in 2004. In my letter I quoted from Orwell's "Looking Back on the Spanish War". "The plant is blind and stupid, but it knows enough to keep pushing up towards the light, and it will do this in the face of endless discouragements".

Keep at it.
