Hugo Chavez Says it is Plausible that U.S. Government Was Involved in 9/11 Attacks

Theory that U.S. orchestrated Sept. 11 attacks 'not absurd': Venezuela

CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) - President Hugo Chavez said Tuesday that it's at least plausible that the U.S. government was involved in the Sept. 11 attacks.

Chavez did not specifically accuse the U.S. government of having a hand in the Sept. 11 attacks, but rather suggested that theories of U.S. involvement bear examination.

The Venezuelan leader, an outspoken critic of U.S. President George W. Bush, was reacting to a television report investigating a theory that the Twin Towers were brought down with explosives after hijacked airplanes crashed into them in 2001.

"The hypothesis is not absurd . . . that those towers could have been dynamited," Chavez said in a speech to supporters. "A building never collapses like that, unless it's with an implosion."

"The hypothesis that is gaining strength . . . is that it was the same U.S. imperial power that planned and carried out this terrible terrorist attack or act against its own people and against citizens of all over the world," Chavez said.

"Why? To justify the aggressions that immediately were unleashed on Afghanistan, on Iraq."

Chavez has said the U.S. launched those wars to ensure its political and economic power.

The U.S. government says al-Qaida chief Osama bin Laden masterminded the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

"A plane supposedly crashed into the Pentagon, but no one ever found a single remnant of that plane," Chavez said, citing a television program he had seen on Venezuela's state television.

Foreign Minister Nicolas Maduro raised the same theories in an earlier speech Tuesday, and called for an independent investigation.

"It's really worrisome to think that all of that could have been a great conspiracy against humanity," Maduro said. "An independent international investigation must be carried out one day to discover the truth about the events of Sept. 11."

Thanks Daithí for the heads up!

No shiaht

I guess the world has finally gone crazy!

The TRUTH IS OUT, sukkas!!! Get the cronies/killers out of the office.

everyone knows but I doubt

everyone knows but I doubt anything will be done about it.

one good thing tho - it might help stymie another 'terrorist attack' because people will immediately demand a very thorough investigation and examine things very closely

huh?

I thought a few months ago Chavez said he was putting together his own independent investigation into 9/11? How is it news that he thinks our government MIGHT have something to do with it?

well, typically you figure

well, typically you figure there MIGHT be something wrong, and so you have an investigation, you don't wait until your 100% absolutely sure before you start the investigation..

which is why we should've had a real investigation here years ago.

By the way...

Because I was fortunate enough to meet Willie Rodriguez in NYC, I asked him about Hugo Chavez wanting to re-investigate 9/11.

He says Hugo Chavez never said he would investigate 9/11. He said that he spoke to a subordinate of Hugo's.

free speech in the dog house...

well it's great that someone of his political caliber, and still active on the political scene, speaks out...but honestly...he is so much in the dog house with schrub and co. anyway, that they could probably give a .....

To few people are coming

To few people are coming forward, so the media can attack the scholars for having too few physicists, structural engineers etc., that's too bad, because it's true. It creates the impression that only a minority is supporting it, so they can quickly dismiss them as wackos.
In truth, it's that only few have the courage to be ridiculed. That's the biggest achievement of the Bush gang, that they outlawed any other theory of what happened as politically incorrect.

Yep, this story has LEGS!

There is a movement afoot to discredit Chavez & friends...

Venezuala, Iran , Syria , North Korea and more than 100 other nations are pushing to broaden the world‘s definition of "terrorism" to include the U.S. occupation of Iraq and the Israeli invasion of Lebanon.

Hugo Chavez is slated to speak at this gathering in Cuba, along with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and others. The Administration is extremely worried about this gathering as it is basically pitting the U.S. & Israel against the World.

I trust this is NOT what Poppy Bush had in mind when he first outlined his vision of a New World Order back on September 11, 1990.

This announcement about Hugo Chavez is the set-up. The next move will be to attempt to discredit him and the other world leaders as a bunch of conspiracy-minded terrorist sympathizers.

Personally I don't think it will work as the Bush Administration has zero credibility left, but they have become soooo transparent that this is a easy call to make.

They will ignore Chavez,

They will ignore Chavez, just like they did with all his previous anti-Bush comments. The hope is that the MSM will not ignore it. Anyone with a brain should be able to understand what Chavez said regardless of the messenger, if they oppose him. That's what the MSM has been doing all along with 9/11 truth, to attack the messenger while ignoring the message.

there you go...

....

U.S. State Department spokeswoman Jan Edmonson declined to comment today on Chavez's accusations.

``I don't think you can print what my response is to that,'' Edmonson said

It's called stoking the fires...

At last check the Hugo Chavez story was a headline link at the Drudge Report. That's a major tipoff that the neocons plan to go after him with a vengeance. They are going to make an example of Mr. Chavez. Or at least they are going to try...

Actually I think this is going to be very interesting to watch.

I applaud Chavez, but

this will just be characterized as political (or worse) by the U.S. media. BushCo is already just about calling Chavez a terrorist, so if the neocon spin sticks (less likely now than before at least), then anyone in the U.S. who questions 9/11 will be lumped into the same "terrorist" category as Chavez. I'm not saying we shouldn't be glad Chavez is on our side, I'm just pointing out how the neocon strategy of typecasting and framing people will likely occur if Chavez takes on 9/11 in any serious way. We need to be aware of this BEFOREHAND -- and strategize a few steps ahead in how we'll respond.

Does anyone here have a link to a story last week about some high level official in the U.S. suggesting that 9/11 truthers are terrorists? I remember seeing something, but can't locate it now. This is a BIG concern of mine -- that there will be a serious backlash against 9/11 truthers if the tide doesn't turn QUICKLY.

I found the article

about truthers being characterized as terrorist sympathizers. It was on Alex Jones' website:

White House Targets Conspiracy Theorists As Terrorist Recruiters
http://www.propagandamatrix.com/articles/september2006/070906terroristre...

A document cited by President Bush in his recent speech at the Capital Hilton Hotel on how to 'win the war on terror' cites conspiracies as one of the wellsprings of terrorism and threatens to "address" and "diminish" the problems they are causing the government in fulfilling their agenda.

On Tuesday Bush referred to the strategy paper as "an unclassified version of the strategy we've been pursuing since September the 11th, 2001," that takes into account, "the changing nature of this enemy."

The document says that terrorism springs from "subcultures of conspiracy and misinformation," and that "terrorists recruit more effectively from populations whose information about the world is contaminated by falsehoods and corrupted by conspiracy theories. The distortions keep alive grievances and filter out facts that would challenge popular prejudices and self-serving propaganda."

The terminology echoes President Bush's speech (video below) to the UN General Assembly on November 10th 2001 in which he stated, "Let us never tolerate outrageous conspiracy theories concerning the attacks of September the 11th, malicious lies that attempt to shift the blame away from the terrorists themselves, away from the guilty."

I just emailed this letter a few times in a row to the editor of my local newspaper for the Letters To The Editor section. I really hope that they print it!

Exposing The Official 9/11 Cover-up

It's that sad time of year again, the anniversary of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Even sadder, is the fact that we, every non-complicit person in every country on earth, have been lied to about the 9/11 attacks.

Do you think that the Bush administrations official story about the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks is the truth? Think again. Better yet, I urge you to watch the inescapable proof that the official story about 9/11, so proudly parroted by the Bush administrations' official 9/11 Commission and the mainstream media is, in fact, a huge lie.

If you have a computer with a high-speed (Cable, DSL) internet connection, you can watch a brand new, very powerful and extremely important 9/11 documentary called '9/11: Press For Truth'. It is not crazy conspiracy dribble. It is well researched, and is based upon -- and features -- prominent 9/11 victims' families. I gaurantee and promise that it is the most important 9/11 documentary that you will ever see.

The documentary is available to watch for free at Google video. You can access the video one of two ways.

1) The easiest is by typing this website link into your internet browser:
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1016720641536424083&q=press+for...

or

2) Type "video.google.ca" into your internet browser. In the Google video search bar at the top of the page, type "9/11 Press For Truth" and choose the second video file in the list that was posted by "9/11 Press for Truth - 1 hr 24 min - 8-Sep-2006".

Be prepared to be shocked, amazed, saddened, angered, informed and enlightened. Please show this film to family, friends, co-workers and strangers. After you watch it, you'll understand why it is so utterly important that everyone sees it.

It is time to expose the official 9/11 cover-up, and '9/11: Press For Truth' does that beautifully.

Avery, Bermas on Paula Zahn tonight

Clip taken from LooseChange Blog

"Wow. What a weekend. Not to mention yesterday... We'll be on Paula Zahn tonight, instead of last night."

Off Topic

I just thought I would share with everyone what I experienced at church last Sunday the 10th. The pastor showed a strange video montague combining a number of video clips which went something like this:

1st clip "Saving Private Ryan" Normandy beach scene;

2nd clip "CNN" clip with title "Showdown in Iraq";

3rd clip WTC Towers collapsing;

4th clip Normandy scene again;

5th clip back to CNN "Showdown in Iraq";

6th clip Tower collapse; etc....

This was quite odd to say the least. My cousin (who is also a truther) and I just sat there and shook our heads as this was playing. I so felt like yelling out, "Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11!", but I chickened out. Sorry guys. I thought some might be interested in what is being fed to us church goers.

Maybe next time you should yell this out!

"If you keep playing politics, you're going to lose your tax-exempt status!"

Bet that will get a response.

Maybe you should think about

Maybe you should think about going to another church. Better still buy a copy of America, Fascism + God: Sermons from a Heretical Preacher by Pastor Davidson Loehr.

Better still let me have his name and address, I'll buy a copy and send it to him.

better still show him the

better still show him the video of that pastor in Texas showing clips of Alex Jones movies(i believe it was 9/11 Martial Law) to his congregation. i wish i remembered his name, anybody know what/who im talking about?

anti chavez idiots

I'm stunned by the comments on this thread.

Here we have a major head-of-state who has done more for his people than any other "leader" on the planet -- actually making an effort to devolve power to his citizens -- and all anyone can say is that "we" might be associated with "radical" or "anti-bush" sentiment. Since the US has tried to oust him in a coup, Chavez naturally speaks to others who are aso on the US shitlist. That doen'st mean he's a "dictator", any more than the PM of Canada when he talks with the president of China. Chavez has done more for democracy than anyone in the hemisphere. He has overwhelming popular support. He was born in a hovel and is actually challening the "right' of rich people to fuck over everyone else.

Again, I'm stunned.

The 911 truth movement has shown an amazing incapacity to follow the proper leads. Instead of focussing on war games and WTC7 and thermate and Jack Abramoff and Dancing Israelis we focus on "no planes' and what hit the Pentagon and cell phones. instead of embracing Stephen Jones we look to quacks like Nico. Instead of welcoming the most astute critics of the official story like Ralph Schoenman we omit them from our discourse.

The comments of Chavez reprresent perhaps the best opportunity yet to challenge the left gatekeepers, yet there is nothing on this thread about an organized email campaign.

With friends like these...

Boycott Anglo-American oil, go Citgo!

It's a small thing you can do to starve the Empire and support anti-Imperialist truth-tellers like Hugo Chavez. Buy your gas from Citgo, a subsidiary of the Venezuelan national oil company. Your nearest 7-11 also sells Citgo gasoline. This sure beats throwing more money at war-backers/profiteers Exxon,BP,Shell, etc.
