Local Updates

1. Save the date, Ken Jenkins is scheduled to return for a two part series scheduled for March 21, 2007 and April 18, 2007 @ 7 pm. Details will be posted at a later date.
2. Local activists joined the anti-war contingent and reached hundreds in the Martin Luther King, Jr. March on January 15, distributing deception dollars and talking to many about 9/11 and other critical topics.
3. Following the Sacbee's Newstand excerpt two 9/11 truth letters were printed in the Letters to the Editor, January 14, 2007.

Letter 1: 'False flag ops' and gatekeepers
"Re "From the newsstands," Forum, Jan. 7: Trust the 9/11 gatekeepers? We are tired of waiting for the gatekeepers to catch up! When are they going to at least acknowledge prior "false flag ops"? The Reichstag fire in 1933, the Gladio paramilitary terrorism operations in Western Europe during the Cold War, the USS Liberty incident of 1967 and Operation Northwoods -- the 1962 plan proposed by senior U.S. Defense Department leaders included terrorism on U.S. soil, crashing drone aircraft, people framed (to make it appear to be a Fidel Castro operation) and hijacked planes.

With such history, what system would investigate -- giving us the complete and utter truth, thus earning our trust? Or would that system just tell us to shut up? The 9/11 Popular Mechanics story provided no evidence to back up its claims and, despite experts listed in the article, cites only a handful. I trump Pop Mech with David Griffins' book "The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions And Distortions," one of his four on Sept. 11. And consider the work of the hundreds of professionals coming forward in groups such as Scholars for 9/11 Truth and the newly formed Pilots for 9/11 Truth and Veterans for 9/11 Truth. Why would WTC building 7 fall down when no plane hit it? Do all steel frame buildings collapse from a few small fires? Gatekeepers need not apply."

Letter 2: Whitewashing Sept. 11
"One third of the people of America, a very significant number, believe that people very high in our government conspired in 9/11.

What especially insulted me in "From the Newsstands" (Forum, Jan. 7) was this: the word paranoia.

For over five years, I have investigated every aspect of this brutal Sept. 11 event: No U.S. military planes in the sky even after almost two hours; as a former military radar technician, I know that is impossible, unless there was an ordered stand-down.

An airliner over Pennsylvania dives straight down into the soft earth below and yet one engine "bounces" two miles. WTC7 free falls in 10 seconds, many hours after the planes were gone, and is described by honorable and honest explosive experts as a planned implosion.

I have seriously investigated this conspiracy; the government provided a whitewash fiasco that did not even prove that the accused were guilty."

Join the 911 Truth Contingent - January 15

Sac Bee Notes Excerpt from the Nation Magazine's Recent 9/11 Hit Piece

The following was printed in the Sac Bee this past Sunday 1/7/07 in the "From the newsstands" section By William Moore - Bee Editorial staff (the story appeared in FORUM section, Page E2). The online version at sacbee.com has only three random comments posted. To submit a letter to the bee visit the sacbee website. It would also be a good time to send a letter due to the recent congressional activity in response to the "9/11 commission recommendations."

"9/11: The roots of paranoia The Nation, Dec. 25
One-third of Americans think the government carried out the Sept. 11 attacks or permitted them to happen to provide an excuse for war in the Middle East, according to a poll last summer by Scripps-Howard News Service. The Nation's Christopher Hayes argues this is patent nonsense... "

Needless to say it was an odd excerpt to include in this news stand sampler and should be countered with the truth.

Beyond 9/11 Truth

TruthMove is an organization dedicated to promoting an accurate view of current events and their global context. According to the website Insight and Informed Citizenship is the focal point of the international truth movement. TruthMove intends to provide the most accessible, concise guide to vital information, facts, and perspectives that have been suppressed by the government and mainstream media. Following is more information from their Insight page:

"We have made a concerted effort to summarize evidence and information. We do not try to hide what we think are the implications of the facts and evidence. This is done in the interest of popularizing information that can be quite obscure and dry. There is no substitute for thinking for oneself. Through an examination of this evidence and a rational process of thought and deduction, one can begin to deconstruct conditioned reality and see many myths and falsehoods for what they are. The Insight section explores the hard facts and details of the systematic manipulation and subjugation of the general populace. This information lays bare the destructive and bankrupt nature of the current social and economic order. We focus on what we see as the most blatant and important lies and deceptions—the ones that are well documented, shocking, and most likely to make people start questioning and demanding change.

9/11 Truth—questioning the official story and becoming aware of alternative research—is what catalyzed us to start thinking about a more general “Truth Movement.” Therefore, exploring the facts and circumstances of 9/11 will be central to our larger mission.
9/11 Truth can be seen as an initial lense through which one can begin to discern the pattern of official deception. Reality is not what we have been told. Questioning and thinking for ourselves will lead us to a more accurate alternative paradigm.

Questioning assumptions and motivations is key to the process of insight. It is an external process in which one becomes aware of new information or perspectives. But also an internal one, by which these new ideas are considered, understood, and integrated into one’s consciousness.

There is no way to have insight without also questioning oneself, considering wider implications, and making one’s own connections and deductions.

We are suspicious of any group or individual who seek to deceive, obscure or hoard knowledge and information. Secrecy and exclusivity are the enemies of equality and justice.

This is uncharted territory, it is difficult to know who to trust. We suggest that our readers be on the lookout for websites, groups, and leaders who tell them WHAT TO THINK instead of informing them of facts and encouraging them to think and decide for themselves."
