"Economic Hit Man"
John Perkins Speaks Out for 9/11 Truth
/bigger>/fontfamily>
(thanks to Tim Boyle for this!)
John Perkins is the bestselling author of Confessions of an Economic Hit
Man. The hardcover reached #9 on the New York Times Bestseller List, the
paperback is currently #9, and it has been translated into 20 languages. On
national TV he has clearly said that he is appalled by the lack of
investigation into 9/11 and that the media has failed us. In so many words
he said we ought to be looking at whether 9/11 was an inside job. For him
to do this took courage, and it will help to open minds to the issue.
Is this a sign the 9/11 Truth issue could be moving from "unmentionable" to
"an issue that really should be investigated"?
There is a strong link between John Perkins and Amy Goodman. On the
book's website (www.economichitman.com/color>), the
story of his 12/31/04 appearance on Democracy Now is prominently featured on
the home page, and a DVD of the interview is available for purchase. He was
interviewed again on DN in recent weeks. Perhaps Perkins' willingness to
suggest that 9/11 might have been an inside job will allow Amy (and by
extension The Nation, The Progressive, Mother Jones, Harpers, and other
progressive media) to give the 9/11 Truth issue a place to stand soon. When
false flag operations can be openly discussed, we are getting closer to
"the tipping point". Keep up the good work!

Excerpt from the Q & A session
<Begin transcript>
Q: I'd like to commend you for the work you've done, really showing
the American public how deeply evil the people who run this country have
been willing to stoop. It's very hard for a lot of people to really face
how evil our leaders have chosen to become. I'm active on the 9/11 issue
and most of the respected people in the movement, in the peace movement,
won't even give proper respect to that. I'm going to ask you what
your knowledge is if you've looked at the issues involved, with claiming
that there is a coverup. I'll ask one very specific question which is very
concise. Did you know that the Kean commission, an official goverment
commission, did not even mention that Number 7 World Trade Center, a
47-story building, collapsed at 5:20 p.m. on 9/11/01 without being hit by a
plane? Taller than any building in Maryland or Virginia. It wasn't
mentioned, and the NY Times and the Washington Post didn't mention that it
wasn't mentioned.
John Perkins: Yeah, and there are some excellent books and some
excellent dvds and films on that whole subject including the one that shows
that there was never a plane shown crashing into the Pentagon which haven't
gotten around very much. I wish they would get around more. You know, I
don't really like to speculate on things I don't know much about. And I
don't know, you know a lot more about that than I do, and I like to talk
about things I really know about. I know there are a lot of good films
around but they're not getting wide circulation.
Q: Go to 911truth.org, that's a good place to start.
John Perkins: 911truth.org, yeah, go to it. And the other thing is
you know it has struck me that if someone were to rob the bank down the
street here tomorrow, probably the first thing the police would do would be
to look for an inside job, right? But it's, you know, like, it ought to, I
was in the Amazon on 9/11 and shortly after that I went up to Ground Zero. I
was amazed when I came back from the Amazon, as I was driving up--I flew
into the Miami airport, and I was driving up to my home in another part of
Florida--and listening and I was expecting to hear people talking about,
well let's look at who really did this. But even on NPR and on every radio
station, I didn't hear any of that, and as I said, I don't know anything
about 9/11 really and what really happened there, but I'm amazed by the lack
of true investigation that seems to have gone into that. It just appalls
me because it really, coming where I come from, it's extremely difficult for
me to believe that that whole thing was masterminded by a man living in a
cave with a walkie talkie. But I don't know.

Eminent Theologian David Griffin Sparks 9/11 Truth Groundswell
David Griffin, one of America's most eloquent and influential
theologians, has summed up the overwhelming evidence for US
government 9/11 complicity in in his bestseller
The New Pearl Harbor. (Read
Marc Estrin's review.) (Listen
to Pacifica radio interview.) Dr. Griffin's follow-up book,
The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions and Distortions,
demolishes the last shreds of doubt that 9/11 was an inside job, and
the official story a transparent cover-up. |
Day
of Prayer for 9/11 Truth Jews, Christians and Muslims from
around the world are uniting to pray for 9/11 truth every Friday
afternoon. (Muslim congregational prayer occurs shortly after noon
on Fridays.) Muslims are asking God to end the nazi-style
persecution aimed at them, and related political violence
perpetrated by all sides, by helping reveal the the truth about what
happened on 9/11. All are invited to join.

Book-in-Progress: The Myth of 9/11 MUJCA-NET co-founder Kevin
Barrett is writing a book entitled The Myth of 9/11: An American
Muslim Speaks Out. Dr. Barrett, an Arabist specializing in the
analysis of myth, literature and folklore, argues that the official
story of 9/11 is a myth, both in the popular sense of an untrue
story, and the scholarly sense of a founding narrative legitimizing
a particular social order.
