Of particular interest will be the changes in the face of the military, the surveillance state, the media, the economy, politics and corporatism that have been cast by the official government narrative of the attacks and the struggle against empire embodied in these changes.

PANEL 5 — 11am - 1pm: Islamophobia and the Rise of Hate in the US

As the human rights of Muslims were sacrificed in wars outside the U.S.A., Muslims inside the U.S. began to experience overt attacks and persecution fueled by a misguided and generalized hate. In this panel, representatives of several major Muslim organizations discuss the rise of hate against their communities and its effects on all communities and on the world. After 9/11 many experienced what seemed to be a coordinated effort to legally justify racial profiling, police brutality and economic boycott. We'll take a close look at state sponsored fear and media sanctioned hate. Was 9-11 the end of equality for Muslim citizens and the end of freedom to worship wherever and whenever you please if your not a Christian or a Jew? This panel will also look at the Ground Zero Islamic cultural center controversy.

Good Post

The problem is that most people just don't care. I find this amazing. Our entire planet is in grave danger and people just sit back and watch the boob tube while the world is falling apart. I don't know what it will take to wake the sheep up. Perhaps a nuclear war? It blows my mind. Some people still think Oswald shot JFK. Sometimes I am at a loss for words.

It will take basic security issues for the masses to mobilize

When their jobs, housing, food, water and gas for their cars reach a threshold level of insecurity, then the masses will begin to really sit up and pay attention.

Our job is to get enough people ready and in place to deal with this in a way that will not lead to irrational panic and violence which can be used as a pretext for martial law or perhaps more subtle means of increasing our present growing police state.

I'm of the opinion that all of these peaks are being carefully manipulated so that they can be triggered at a time of the elites choosing, thus forcing a massive crisis that overwhelms the general population and eases the transition to a more overt authoritarian state. Think of this as a version of Naomi Klein's "Shock Doctrine" on steroids that heralds the long planned for new feudalism the sociopathic elites desire.

The more self-sufficient and interconnected we all become at the watershed level, the better prepared we will be to resist any attempt to create this outcome.

We in the truth movement are uniquely positioned to take the lead in this area. We understand the underlying issues, are aware of divide and conquer tactics and the long history of cointelpro, and have forged alliances that span the political spectrum. Some of us have even started running for public office and are beginning to be known in a larger local context.

Talk to your neighbors, start neighborhood groups and smile as much as possible. The power of love and truth is the most potent force in the cosmos.

Be well and be prepared, brothers and sisters.

The truth shall set us free. Love is the only way forward.

WELL SAID.

Thanks for saying it.

Man! What a line up of names!

This took some work to organize!
Wow!

$20 per Session is EXCESSIVE

9/11 Truth is Still the Issue with Kevin Ryan

.

Why are there no family members or first responders?

Why on earth would a conference on the ninth anniversary be marketed as how the world changed when those whose worlds were most intimately changed are excluded? Whoever put this name-recognized / celebrity get-together together surly is missing the point. The Truth needs to be told by those who Lives’ have been forever changed!
