911 Truth on the Fifth Estate part 2 of 4 - David Ray Griffin

Following the September 11 attacks, David Ray Griffin moved his focus from questions of philosophy and religion to ones of politics and history, specifically American expansionism and imperialism. He intended to write a book on the subject, presenting 9/11 in terms of "blowback" for aggressive United States foreign policies of the 20th century:
"Until the spring of 2003, I had not looked at any of the evidence. I was vaguely aware there were people, at least on the internet, who were offering evidence against the official account of 9/11... I knew the US government had 'fabricated' evidence to go to war several times before. Nevertheless... I did not take this possibility seriously... I was so confident that they must be wrong."


After reading the work of Paul Thompson and Nafeez Ahmed, he became convinced that there was a prima facie case for the contention that there must have been complicity from individuals within the United States, and joined the 9/11 Truth Movement in calling for an extensive investigation from the United States media, Congress and the 9/11 Commission. At this time, he set about writing his first book on the subject, which he called The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions About the Bush Administration and 9/11 (2004).


Part One of the book looks at the events of 9/11, discussing each flight in turn and also the behaviour of President George W. Bush and his Secret Service protection. Part Two examines 9/11 in a wider context, in the form of four "disturbing questions". David Ray Griffin discussed this book and the claims within it in an interview with Nick Welsh, reported under the headline Thinking Unthinkable Thoughts: Theologian Charges White House Complicity in 9/11 Attack.


Griffin's second book on the subject was a direct critique of the 9/11 Commission Report, called The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions And Distortions (2005). Griffin's article The 9/11 Commission Report: A 571-page Lie summarises this book, presenting 115 instances of either omissions or distortions of evidence he claims are in the report, stating that "the entire Report is constructed in support of one big lie: that the official story about 9/11 is true."

Anyone who owns a computer and basic logic knows it was an inside job.

Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, and Rice are deep in it up to their fucking eyeballs. Why they're not arrested is a testament to how powerful their secret masters are.

@AlexanderTheGood89 You're the one who said a library is more valuable than a computer. I asked which library, it wasn't very complicated. Some libraries have more books than others.

@911investigator

If that's your best piece of evidence--that "every TV channel" labeled Osama as being responsible on the day of 9/11--label me absolutely unconvinced.

By the way, for those interested, you can find the original news footage from 9/11 at the website 911 myths (dot) com, and your claims that all TV channels came to the same conclusion at the same time is patently false. CBS, CNN, Fox News, and many other media outlets were completely unsure of the reasons for 9/11 that morning

@AlexanderTheGood89 The top reasons that support 911 was an inside job can't be debunked.

-911 was "solved" instantly and shown on every channel on TV as Osamas face and name is shown to the Collective unconscious as guilty on TV all day on every channel on Sept 11, 2001. I recorded 6 hours of news 9/11/2001 and I have seen proof with my own eyes and ears they used the same sound track at least twice with different videos and every 15 minutes Osama Bin Laden face is on every channel I recoreded.

@Allanlegacy43

Would you like to address my comments and the facts they present sincerely and critically, as I did with yours? Or would you just like to call me "ignorant" for providing counter-evidence? The comments on my profile perfectly sum up your style of argumentation: attack whenever someone presents evidence that discredits the inside job theory. You are clearly far more interested in protecting the theory, for whatever perverted reasons, than you are about protecting the truth.

@AlexanderTheGood89 From now on instead of wasting my valuable time debating ignorant sheep I'm going to go directly to their channel to se what I'm dealing with. I just went to yours and well enough said, every comment on there was against you, and one was spot on just a ignorant troll!

@Allanlegacy43

All fact? More like "all false." In other words, it is not a fact that the U.S. is controlled by Israel, that is a ridiculous assertion. Israel is controlled by the United States, and exists largely for American defence and control of the Middle East. Most obviously, our current President, Barack Obama, has been openly defying the will of the AIPAC and the "zionists" for the last three months. Many other Presidents have taken similar stances, like Jimmy Carter--all fact.

@AlexanderTheGood89 I am a truther and damn proud of it I am also a Christian and just as proud. we have no hatred for the jewish people or any other for that matter. I believe the Jews should have their homeland and be free and happy and bless them. However the US media is completely controled by the jewish zionist, the movie studios are controled as well, everyone knows this. Is totally bias and a huge joke, the US congress and senate as well are under zion control, from the AIPAC, all fact!

[Allanlegacy43]

@AlexanderTheGood89 You wanna bet he said it, do your damn resrearch before spouting off like some ignorant tool, It means that the media has complete control over the mases and they can an do print and say all kinds of lies and garbage bullshit and they will repeat it every half hour, again and again just like flu vacinations that they tell you are so wonderful and good for you, it's a lie but they just repeat it over and over until the sheep like you buy it hook line and sinker.

@Allanlegacy43

Joseph Goebbels did say that. Wait, no he didn't? That's often a misinterpreted paraphrase of his criticisms of the British leadership during World War II. It has no bearing to our conversation, no relevance. Unless of course, you're proclaiming an anti-Semetic reasoning for your "9/11 truth movement." which I believe you are. That you quote a Nazi, and speak of a Jewish controlled media in ALL CAPs evidences that you, like most truthers, have the repressed spirit of a fascist.
