Hope For the Best – And Prepare For the Worst

My wife and I watched the HBO documentary last night on DieBold electronic voting machines with clenched teeth and tears in our eyes. These machines are as crooked as a dog’s hind leg – and no one appears to care.

The documentary ended on a particularly poignant note. After gaining the cooperation of a Florida polling official to test his machines, a simple memory card which is used to hold tabulated votes, (infected with malicious software) corrupted and skewed the results of a test election, leaving no telltale signs of tampering. And with no paper trail, the crime was complete.

The cooperating poll worker, (a man who appeared to be in his late 50s) who had insisted that this sort of ‘hack’ was “impossible,” was reduced to tears, as the implications of what he had just witnessed, and what this meant for our democracy, sunk into his mind. Seeing this man crying for our democracy was an especially poignant moment that most Americans appear to fail to grasp.

What does this have to do with 9/11?

We all know the stakes. Our nation has spent billions to insert heavily, and apparently intentionally, compromised voting machines into our system. Could they get away with stealing another election?

What would that mean for America?

What would that mean for the 9/11 Truth community?

I have written here in the past, about this nation’s move towards martial law through legislation recently passed and signed by President Bush on October 17, 2006. I believe that we should all hope for the best – but prepare for the worst. I have personally prepared for the worst by creating a series of letters that are currently in the possession of a very trustworthy attorney friend. She would certainly notice if I “disappeared” within 24 to 48 hours. In the event of my disappearance she will send these letter out, notifying my friends, family, fellow activists and legal authorities of my possible kidnapping.

I advise all 9/11 activists to prepare for the worst. One activist here mentioned purchasing firearms. I do not advise as such. Please know that, in an armed standoff with the US government, you are certainly destined to lose. Instead, I suggest you arm yourself with a circle of friends, family members, legal resources and fellow activists.

It is my hope that, should members of this movement begin to “disappear” that our fellow activists will create as much noise as possible – making this in fact the CENTRAL issue of the 9/11 Truth movement - demanding that the Red Cross and the ACLU and Amnesty International and every other group you can think of make as much publicity and noise as possible – demanding access – demanding explanations – demanding media coverage.

The government, armed with these new laws, may very well be within their rights to detain us. But, as long as they know that each and every one of us is MISSED – and that the whole world is in fact WATCHING and WAITING and holding a vigil on our behalf – they may begin to understand that they will be held accountable for how we are treated.

It is not my objective to frighten anyone. But we all know the stakes involved in this next election, and should our worst fears be realized we should at the very least be organized and prepared to stand together in an emergency.

I would like to call upon members of this movement to establish and post a network of mail addresses and email addresses and legal contacts that we can all utilize in the event of a real emergency. I ask you all to protect yourselves by finding several trusted friends to notify the rest of us in the event of an unfortunate event. I am hoping for the best on November 7th – but, if they do indeed steal another election, we would be fools to underestimate what this government is capable of in a worst case scenario.

The 9/11 Truth movement is essentially a peaceful movement calling for accountability and truth from our government and media. We can only protect this sacred right by protecting ourselves first.
