The readership at the libertarian web site LewRockwell.com has grown exponentially in the past year or so. The site's daily traffic count now competes respectably with some MSM sites. Most of the site's regular columnists have either remained silent about 9/11 Truth or else they say they don't believe it was an inside job. Things finally appear to be changing -- at least a little (is it because the presidential election is now another fait accompli for our hidden government?). Recently, Lew Rockwell himself very vaguely equated 9/11 with the general concept of an "inside job," and today columnist Michael S. Rozeff comments on the official lie regarding Building 7. He does not mince words. As you read it, keep in mind that a large number of dedicated LewRockwell.com readers might never have been exposed to this information if not for Mr. Rozeff's comment:

In a very brief statement (that contains a link to a Silicon Valley Watcher article), Lew Rockwell, proprietor of the famous libertarian web site LewRockwell.com, strongly implies that he could envision the government initiating some sort of "i911" in order to pass an "iPatriot Act," with the goal of killing internet freedom.

Aside from the importance of Mr. Rockwell's message about the continuing threat to internet freedom, this is the closest I've ever seen him come to using the phrase "9/11" (or at least a variation of it) and the implication of an "inside job" in the same statement (although I've not read everything he has written). Maybe one day (preferably before the signing of the "iPatriot Act") he will be as blunt in his implications about 9/11/01 as are two of his regular columnists, Butler Shaffer and Paul Craig Roberts (assuming I haven't read too much into Mr. Rockwell's statement).

Dr. Clyde Wilson has written an article (Sept. 18th) on LewRockwell.com entitled Black Ops --
Conspiracy and 9/11. This is great to see questioning of the 9/11 official story is spreading.

Our late friend Murray Rothbard used to point out to those who scoffed at "conspiracy theories" that history is indeed full of real conspiracies, and that often conspiracy provides a more satisfactory explanation for an event than the "lone nut theory" that is popular with government spokespersons.

The continuing drumbeat of speculation that 9/11 may have been a U.S. government "black ops" mission, a charge coming from what seems to be a respectable minority of seemingly informed observers, tells us much about the sad condition of the American polity.

I am inclined to think that none of us can possibly have enough information to know the full truth about 9/11. We will not have such information for years, very possibly never. Why, we still don’t know the full truth about the Lincoln and Kennedy assassinations. In my always humble opinion, the incompetence demonstrated by our rulers before, during, and after 9/11 would be alone enough to bring down any government, without the need for revelations of complicity – if we had a responsible democratic regime.

I am not a "conspiracy theorist," but, like any old newspaperman, I am a skeptic. In the years of my misspent youth as a reporter I saw police chiefs, mayors, newspaper executives, and other dignitaries lie and distort and suppress the truth. I am inclined to suspect that such is even more likely among the feds, for whom the stakes are much greater.
