9/11 Truth Manifesto



By Joel S. Hirschhorn



12/20/07 "ICH" -- -- For evidence that America?s political system is a

criminal conspiracy, open your mind to piles of new analyses that prove

beyond doubt that the official 9/11 story is a lie. Years of a

bipartisan cover-up of 9/11 lies make it much more than one horrendous

past event. It endures in infamy as a symptom of a corrupt and

dishonest government.





Every day we pay for what 9/11 and its cover-up have burdened us with,

including the costly Iraq war and the erosion of the rule of law and

constitutional rights. Power elites have suppressed the truth because

they fear what will happen when the public understands that 9/11 was not

accomplished solely by foreign terrorists.







Technically sound analyses of what happened at the World Trade Center

have unequivocally shown that the official 9/11 story is not credible

(www.ae911truth.org). Truth seekers have met their burden of proof; the

government has not met theirs. Simply put, controlled demolition

brought down three buildings, not fires from the impact of planes on two

of them. Not only was the US government involved, it has also conspired

to hide the truth from the public. Why? Republican and Democratic

politicians and power elites fear that 9/11 truth will remove what

little public trust remains in government. The truth will produce

political instability, perhaps breaking the two-party stranglehold on

our political system. And it should. And it must, if we are to finally

obtain the deep political reforms our nation desperately needs.







The decline started before George W. Bush and his criminal

co-conspirators accelerated it with their blatant disregard for the rule

of law and our Constitution. It will continue, even with a Democratic

administration, unless we reform our political system. We must remind

Americans that our nation was born in an insurrectionist, populist

rebellion against political tyranny ? and that 9/11 teaches us that we

need a Second American Revolution. We must destroy the domestic Axis of

Arrogance of our plutocracy more than fear a foreign Axis of Evil. How?







A vast nationwide grassroots 9/11 truth movement is ignored by the

mainstream news media. Its success will be the catalyst for renewing

American democracy. It will produce a shock wave that rattles the

brains of all Americans: Shock therapy from a truth so powerful and

unsettling that Americans finally see the decline of American democracy

that allowed 9/11 and its cover-up.







Make no mistake, the 9/11 truth movement holds the future of the United

States. We are not subversive ?conspiracy theorists? or enablers of

foreign terrorism. We are patriotic warriors working to nullify group

delusion produced by government propaganda. Dozens of books and

websites reveal countless technical contradictions and inconsistencies

with the official government 9/11 story and the laws of physics. The

weight of the evidence supports one painful verdict: Our federal

government played a role, probably through a large ?black op.? The

?why? is obvious: To justify an unjust war to serve corporate interests

and greed.







Here is our opportunity: To make 9/11 the tipping point for American

democracy renewal. Our enemies fear that if this movement succeeds,

their plutocratic, elitist cabal ? the Axis of Arrogance ? run by the

two-party duopoly will collapse. Corruption keeps our political system

stable ? truth must clean it up. Instability is the necessary price for

restoring democracy.







A Paradigm Shift







9/11 lies have sustained the ruling terrorism-threat paradigm. 9/11

truth must energize a new political-reform paradigm. Patriotism framed

as defending the nation against terrorism must be replaced by patriotism

focused on repairing American democracy.







Already, status quo protectionists lie about us to defeat our movement.

Things will get worse as our movement draws closer to bringing down

the corrupt political system. And we are getting closer. Only 16

percent of Americans believe that members of the Bush administration are

telling the truth about what they knew about terrorist attacks on the US

prior to 9/11, according to a New York Times/CBS News poll. But what

people say in polls is not the same as coming out publicly and

vociferously for 9/11 truth, or seeing the roots of 9/11 in the decay of

American democracy, not merely the actions of a few evil people.







The deceived public must be re-educated to see the arrogant power elites

running our national plutocracy as worse than radical Islamic

terrorists. Paul Craig Roberts captured the essence of the problem:

?Americans think their danger is terrorists. They don`t understand the

terrorists cannot take away habeas corpus, the Bill of Rights, the

Constitution. ... The terrorists are not anything like the threat that

we face to the Bill of Rights and the Constitution from our own

government in the name of fighting terrorism. Americans just aren`t

able to perceive that.?







9/11 is a history lesson to inform the nation about democracy decline.

As John McMurtry asked, ?So which goes - the faith in America?s

greatness and goodness in the world, or the facts which disclose the

opposite at the very top?? We must always remember that Americans are

better than their government. They do not get the government they

deserve. They get the government that the rich and powerful impose.

That must end.







We confront more than power elites. There is psychological resistance

of millions of Americans to painful 9/11 truth ? a shameful,

?unthinkable? truth about their elected government. Even if they have

doubts about the official story, they instinctively recoil and erect

mental barriers to block out the full truth. They want to keep

believing that they live in a great democracy. They want to believe

that when the Bush administration is replaced our democracy will be in

good shape again. Hard to accept that 9/11 truth could not have been

suppressed this long without the tacit or explicit approval of

Democratic politicians and power brokers.







It is as if we are telling children that their parents are mass

murderers. Distracted, time-poor, depressed, political disengaged,

cynical and insecure Americans do not want to hear that their government

had a hand in 9/11. That for years their two-party-controlled

government has blatantly lied to them. That thousands of good Americans

have died and been terribly injured in a war propped up by the

false-flag 9/11 fiction. In sum, that despite elections a vast criminal

conspiracy has been so successful for so long. Such thoughts hurt.







Also, political instability is scary to ordinary Americans. But

stability based on corruption and lies is destructive. Only when

Americans see 9/11 as a political attack (by Americans on Americans) ?

not solely a terrorist attack (by foreigners on Americans) ? will they

understand that revealing 9/11 truth must lead to major political

reforms. Instability is the cost of democracy renewal.







Here are powerful messages: The collapse of the rule of law is more

important than the collapse of buildings. Countless more have died

because of 9/11 than on 9/11. The events of 9/11 ultimately are less

important than the reasons for and consequences of 9/11.







As John McMurtry said, ?[9/11] allowed an illegitimate administration to

transmute into America?s patriotic champion at war - above

accountability and the rule of law. ?Defending America from another

terrorist attack? became a political blank check for corporate

corruption of government expenditures with impunity, war criminal acts

and threats across the Islamic and alternative third world, and attacks

on civil rights and commons at home.? All this persists as 9/11 lies

persist.







Despite record-low levels of public trust in Congress and the president,

too many Americans still believe that elections are the path to major

political reforms. Despite a solid history of campaign lies from

politicians, and overwhelming belief that the nation is on the wrong

track, Americans keep hoping that they can vote their way into a better

future. Most Americans do not have a Boston Tea Party mentality. They

are unready to revolt despite revolting conditions. Our truth movement

must help Americans accept painful truth and its political fallout. We

must put all the technical truth discovered by reputable scientists and

engineers to work for systemic reforms.







We must do more than oust the official story and obtain a new 9/11

investigation that now has wide support by hundreds of respected

Americans (www.patriotsquestion911.com). We must guide Americans into a

more patriotic and courageous mental state. We must help Americans

become outraged and rebellious, yet also optimistic about major

political reforms.







Political Strategy







Success against the power elites running and ruining our nation requires

building an army of Americans openly revolting against the two-party

corporatist state now in control. The 9/11 truth movement must use

political strategies to defeat the status quo political establishment.

Here are three actions.







First, with detailed technical analyses unequivocally proving that the

official story is false, the movement can draft a bill that might be

titled The 9/11 Truth Act of 2008. This proposed federal legislation

should be delivered to every member of the House and Senate early next

year. It would clarify the investigation: What its scope and objectives

must be. What reliable entity, public or private or a combination, must

be used. How the public must be given opportunities to present

information. What resources must be provided and what time frame must

be adhered to.







We must take the initiative and specify exactly what kind of new

official 9/11 investigation is necessary, recognizing that professionals

in the truth movement have limited resources and cannot address all

questions. The 9/11 truth movement itself must define exactly what the

first real credible and comprehensive government sponsored investigation

must consist of. We can have no confidence in anything that the

political establishment might devise to silence our movement. We must

tell the public, the media and the political world what is required to

reveal the total truth as to what caused, for example, the collapse of

three World Trade Center buildings, especially building 7 not even hit

by a plane.







Developing and submitting this legislation must then be followed up by

all 9/11 groups urging their supporters to bombard Congress with demands

for hearings and passage of the bill. This is the way to engage more

Americans politically to obtain full 9/11 truth.







However, few politicians? comments support the truth movement. A rare

statement came from presidential candidate Ron Paul. In a radio

interview in January, 2007 he said that the 9/11 investigations to date

are ?more or less cover-up and no real explanation of what went on.?

However, later in the year when he became more visible he was asked

about the possibility of the official story being orchestrated by the

government. He said emphatically ?absolutely not.? In another

interview, when asked whether he thought 9/11 was an inside job that our

government made happen, he responded forcefully ?No.? So apparently

Paul sees a cover-up but not about the involvement of our government.

Would he support legislation for a new investigation?







Thus the second critical political action is this: Proclaim that only

politicians that actively support passage of our legislation will earn

support in the 2008 elections from the millions of Americans doubting

the official 9/11 story. This threat is an absolute necessity. If the

legislation is not passed by Congress and signed into law by President

Bush, then we must aggressively support a boycott on voting for all

Democrats and Republicans in the 2008 federal elections.







Third, all those committed to 9/11 truth should honor what the Founders

gave us in our Constitution in case some day Americans lost confidence

in the federal government, especially in Congress. That day has

arrived. 9/11 was that day. They gave us the option in Article V for a

convention of state delegates to propose constitutional amendments. We

must see SYSTEM reforms as only achievable through constitutional

amendments that Congress will never propose nor achieve through normal

legislation.







Congress and the entire elitist political establishment have

intentionally denied us a convention for over 200 years. The one and

only requirement in Article V has more than been satisfied by over 500

state applications from all 50 states. Enough is enough. Our truth

movement should join the effort of Friends of the Article V Convention

at www.foavc.org by urging truth group members to join FOAVC. The

political establishment fears both 9/11 truth and an Article V

convention. We must grasp that 9/11 truth can bring us to the brink of

political reforms and the convention is the process to obtain them.







Conclusion







The 9/11 truth movement must also be a political movement ? but not in

any partisan sense. 9/11 truth can help Americans take back their

country. 9/11 truth can end the criminal, corrupt and conniving

plutocracy that stole our government and mutilated our democracy.







We must transform 9/11 from a catalyzing event for imperialistic

war-mongering to one for democracy renewal. We must convert

terrorist-transfixed fear into political reform enthusiasm.





The pursuit of truth is not always the pursuit of happiness ? not when

the truth hurts. The 9/11 truth movement is not about finding immediate

happiness. It is about rebooting American democracy and, after

accomplishing that, earning happiness.

Title: Citizens Say WTF so Wisconsin Says TFW
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2009 11:14:21 +0000
Author: jonathanturley

wtftfwIt appears that blogging and texting lingo has finally brought down the halls of government. The Wisconsin Tourism Federation has been known as WTF for many years until the snickers of the new generation of texting citizens drowned out their message. They are now the Tourism Federation of Wisconsin, thank you very much.

The demise of WTF occurred without much fanfare despite the fact that it was established in 1979.

Actually, the good news is that it can now be picked up by New York as a signature tourism expression for the Big Apple.

One cannot be to hard on the people of TFW. During the Reagan Administration, officials were shocked when lawyers introduced themselves as “working to LUST.” It was a reference to the division dealing with Leaking Underground Storage Tanks. It was quickly changed to UST — Underground Storage Tanks — for propriety’s sake.

180px-CheeseheadWhat I fail to understand (admittedly with a Chicago bias) is why people who wear cheese on their heads at football games are this sensitive about being called WTF. We grew up saying that about many of the things we saw across the border in Wisconsin.

Fortunately, for the texting set, there remains the World Taekwondo Federation (WTF). Snicker, snicker.
