Muckraker on 9/11 Commission Report and Iran
The Approaching War with Iran: Part III
"The whitewash that was the 9/11 Commission ran by Philip Zelikow has already provided the Bush Whitehouse with enough legal cover to launch an attack against Iran. Zelikow saw to it that the important questions, the questions that the Jersey widows and the rest of America wanted answered by the Commission, the questions that would have unraveled the lies told about 9/11 and most likely placed this nation in a state of armed revolt against the federal government – Zelikow made sure these questions never saw the light of day in favor of creating a legal mechanism for Bush / Cheney to pull the trigger in the greater Middle East – not just Iraq.
Have doubts? In the July 26, 2006 edition of Newsweek ran an article titled 9/11: The Iran Factor - The final report of the 9-11 Commission reveals troubling new evidence that Tehran was closer to Al Qaeda than Iraq was.
On page 61 of the 9/11 Commission Report: Final Report of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks upon the United States, the Zelikow Commission wrote:
In late 1991 or 1992, discussions in Sudan between al Qaeda and Iranian operatives led to an informal agreement to cooperate in providing support – even if only training – for actions carried out primarily against Israel and the United States.
On page 128 the Commission wrote:
Though intelligence gave no clear indication of what might be afoot, some intelligence reports mentioned chemical weapons, pointing toward work at a camp in southern Afghanistan called Derunta. On November 4, 1998, the US Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York unsealed its indictment of Bin Laden, charging him with conspiracy to attack U.S. defense installations. The indictment also charged that al Qaeda had allied itself with Sudan, Iran, and Hezbollah.
Remember, S.J. Res. 23 authorized the President to use all necessary and appropriate force against those nations, organizations, or persons he determines planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, or harbored such organizations or persons. The Congress loaded the gun and granted the license and the 9/11 Commission provided the bullets to Bush / Cheney to now hunt in Iran without further congressional oversight. Despite what Clinton or any other member of Congress has to say about it, until S.J. Res. 23 is revoked, the license to invade Iran remains legally in Bush / Cheney possession."

they're building empire
Excellent work. Clearly, as we have seen with other neocon scribblings from the pre-9/11 era, they are more driven by the need to enable future invasions than the need to accurately describe past events.
This trend will not end, as long as the current elites remain in power. They will continue to "find" Al Qaeda "sympathizers" wherever they wish to conduct military operations.
As an unnamed Bush official told reporter Ron Suskind, "We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality -- judiciously, as you will--we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors...and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do."
Hegemony
Great article by Mr. Hass. That quote by Mr. Brzezinski contained within is stunning. It's not surprising we have to go to Muckraker Report to find it. So really, Mr. Hass is rallying troops that are in fact already quite pissed off about the whole thing, while the rest of America slumbers. I'll bet a lot of holders of US debt are in fact quite interested, and not slumbering.
Very good article...
A while back, I was curious as to what the news was reporting on or around 7/22/2004, the day the 9/11 Report was released.
MSNBC
CNN
"So where is the oil going to come from?... The Middle East, with two-thirds of the world's oil and the lowest cost, is still where the prize ultimately lies."
Richard Cheney - Chief Executive Of Halliburton
Ah, the Government Propaganda Machinery operating....
....at full efficiency....
Always heartwarming.
Nice retrieval, Jon.
It seems...
The 9/11 Report was written to both endorse, and promote the insane, fascist, murdering agendas of this Administration. With the exception of Iraq of course, but they didn't need the 9/11 Report to invade Iraq. By the time the report was released, we were already in Iraq for a year.
"So where is the oil going to come from?... The Middle East, with two-thirds of the world's oil and the lowest cost, is still where the prize ultimately lies."
Richard Cheney - Chief Executive Of Halliburton
Your're right
They didn't need the 9-11 report to invade. They had mythological weapons of mass destruction. Remember that bullshit? Of course, a year in, some of the more astute members of the public smelled the bullshit. How convenient to have a piping hot platter of fresh bullshit just as the spell wears off. BTW, anyone seen Dick Cheney lately? That scares me.
Kevin Bacon would be proud
Isn't it telling that the msm foregrounded such minor claims as those made about Iran's alleged connection to Al Qaeda?
And notice the Six Degrees of 9/11 that gets played every time Al Qaeda is invoked? "Several of the hijackers passed through Iran ahead of the terror strikes." Oh no! They "passed through" another country! Quick! Bomb it into last week!
I sure hope alleged criminal types never pass through my hometown on their way to alleged terrorism.
clear problem with believing in fake hijackers
Fake hijackers can be shown to have passed through any country that needs bombing. Expose the hijackers as fake and you not only expose 9/11 but also stop the anti-muslim blood libel myth from being invoked any time someone wants to kill muslims to steal something of theirs.

Hey Jon, why don't We send the report of the CIA
screwing up the Iranian affairs in 1953, helping the Shah to seize power . We can show the Preznit what a fraud He is, and present him with how We know the way they operate and why.
And We know better,which gives Me an idea, wherever that article is to be found. I would like to link that '53 operation to it. Along with any kind of Iran complicity talk site that I can find, I'll link it. May not do much, but at least it could possibly change people's attitude by showing the lenghts the government goes to for the corporate structure.
By the way, were not some of those terrorists, Saudi? Many passed through Suadi Arabia. Doesn't that mean We have to bomb them too?
Mike, a few things.
First, if you want to talk about the whole overthrow of Mossadegh (a great secular leader, the type that we say that we would like to install), just cite that section of Terrorstorm. Second, if you want to make a statement with the whole nuclear power issue, just post this picture.
Finally, yes, the whole Saudi support for the Sunni insurgency is the issue anti-war people should be pounding. Sunnis are the ones blowing up the most Americans, not Shia. Professor Juan Cole absolutely destroys the New York Times administration bandwagon claim that one-fourth of the latest American deaths are due to bombs made in Iran and given to Shiite militias.

911 Accountability Conference - Confirmed Speaker Changes
It appears there's been more changes to the roster of confirmed speakers at the 9/11 Accountability Conference in Arizona this coming weekend.
It should be an excellent weekend of events with people coming together to discuss what more and more people are coming to know.
Unfortunately, it appears that the Loose Change crew and Alex Jones will not be making an appearance. However, excellent researchers like Steve Jones will be there as part of the discussions to bring accountability.
200 minutes of CNN from 9/11 2001
Cut it up.
Post it on youtube.
Do your best.

some dude named galileo once did the science thing
With the loss of many of his defenders in Rome because of Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems, Galileo was ordered to stand trial on suspicion of heresy in 1633. The sentence of the Inquisition was in three essential parts:
Galileo was required to recant his heliocentric ideas; the idea that the Sun is stationary was condemned as "formally heretical." However, while there is no doubt that Pope Urban VIII and the vast majority of Church officials did not believe in heliocentrism, Catholic doctrine is defined by the pope when he speaks ex cathedra (from the Chair of Saint Peter) in matters of faith and morals. While Church officials did condemn Galileo, heliocentrism was never formally or officially condemned by the Catholic Church.
He was ordered imprisoned; the sentence was later commuted to house arrest.
His offending Dialogue was banned; and in an action not announced at the trial and not enforced, publication of any of his works was forbidden, including any he might write in the future.

So we're invading countries with connections to Al-Qaeda?
Does that mean the US should invade the US? No country has closer links to Al-Qaeda, after all, than the country which created, nurtured and sponsored this dastardly group, up-to and after the events of 911.
Ever notice that when Bush or Blair or Likud are in trouble "Al-Qaeda" releases a new tape? Ummm yeah.
Hell, even Tony Blair admitted that "Al-Qaeda" is not an "organization" per se but rather an "ideology". He could have gone further and mentioned that the whole thing is a monumental farce, that "Al-Qaeda" is an obvious cut-out of Western intelligence, but that wouldn't have gone over well with Tavistock. Should the CIA invade a cut-out of its own selff? The answer is clearly yes.
Alas, it appears that all good folks have long since been purged from the "intelligence community" (how's that for an oxymoron? "intelligence community". What's next? The "serial killer community"? The "National coalition of cannibals" community? With co-chair Jeffrey Dahmer?) , so we'll have to take up the slack ourselves. Goddamn Bureaucrats.

Can we get an update from the DC

Journal of 9/11 Studies hijacked!!
The f****** assholes have hijacked and deleted 'Jounal of 9/11 Studies' from the web. And Fetzer and his gang have established a new ridiculous site in connection with the (also hijacked) ST9/11, from wich many now have resigned, and in contrast to which a new site from the real 9/11 skeptics have been formed. Steven E. Jones and Kevin Ryan are now editors of this site, which is STJ911. THERE IS NO DOUBT NO MORE AS TO WHAT THE CITIZENS HAVE TO DO TO RID THEMSELVES OF THIS MENACE.
F*** THE HIJACKERS OF JOURNAL OF 9/11 STUDIES AND F*** THE PERPETRATORS OF 9/11!!!
