"The official conspiracy theory of 9/11 is a bunch of hogwash. It's impossible." - Dr. Robert Bowman, 2004
*Recommended reading:
"Shortly after 9/11, President Bush told the American people, perhaps especially Congress and the press, that they should not "tolerate outrageous conspiracy theories concerning the attacks of 11 September." Although we can probably all agree that such theories should be rejected, the meaning of the phrase "outrageous conspiracy theories about 9/11" may not be immediately self-evident.
One's first reaction might be that the term "outrageous" does not serve to distinguish some conspiracy theories about 9/11 from others, because all such theories are outrageous. However, the official account, which Bush was advocating, is itself a conspiracy theory. A conspiracy is simply "an agreement to perform together an illegal, treacherous, or evil act." A conspiracy theory about some event, therefore, is simply a theory that it resulted from such an agreement. According to the official account of the 9/11 attacks, they resulted from a conspiracy involving Osama bin Laden and several members of al-Qaeda. The official account is, accordingly, a conspiracy theory.
We must ask, therefore, what would make such a theory outrageous. What are the criteria?
Within the philosophy of science, there are two basic criteria for discriminating between good and bad theories. First, a theory should not be inconsistent from any of the relevant facts. Many critics of the official account of 9/11 have faulted it for not fulfilling this criterion. They have argued, for example, that the damage and fires resulting from the impact of two airliners cannot explain why the Twin Towers and WTC 7 collapsed.
But many journalists and politicians have felt too unqualified to make judgments on such matters, which involve technical issues, such as how buildings react to being hit by planes and how steel behaves when heated.
The other basic criterion of good theories, however, does not require any technical expertise. It simply says that a theory must be self-consistent, devoid of any internal contradictions. If a theory contains an internal contradiction, it is an unacceptable theory. If it contained a large number of such contradictions, it would be an outrageous theory.
The official conspiracy theory about 9/11, containing at least 25 internal contradictions, is clearly an outrageous theory. And yet this theory has been used to justify attacks on two countries, which have caused over a million deaths, including the deaths of thousands of Americans. This theory has also been used to justify extraordinary rendition, torture, warrantless spying, the denial of habeas corpus, and a general undermining of the US Constitution.
Given the extraordinary developments that have been justified in the name of the official story about 9/11, Congress and the press need to ask if the many contradictions in this story point to its falsity."
Hey Hopeland, Please listen to my new song titled "September 11th was an Inside Job!" and tell everybody you know about it so that we can wake up more citizens! Thanks!!
The Sydney's conference was a BIG SUCCESS We 9/11 Truthers in down under have got connected. ;O)
We'll get to that legitimate investigation to begin with fairly soon.
You may like to consider coming to our first event. It promises to be a great night. This guy came over in February for his UK Tour and he's back due to its overwhelming popularity!
He has an amazing story to tell, one which the public desperately need to hear.

1) San Francisco Approves Ballot Initiative to Call for Impeachment

NEWS RELEASE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
With Help From Constitution Summer, San Francisco Approves Ballot Initiative to Call for Impeachment
Announcement Comes on Anniversary of Nixon Resignation
SAN FRANCISCO, CA Four City San Francisco Supervisors have put their pens to a document that will allow the city's 421,000 registered voters an up or down vote on the merits of impeaching both President George W. Bush and Vice President Richard B. Cheney this November 7th. The San Francisco Impeachment Ballot Initiative, like the Berkeley Impeachment Ballot Initiative approved on June 27th, 2006, was drafted in close coordination with Constitution Summer, a nonpartisan, national coalition of students at the nation's law schools and universities. Champaign-Urbana, Illinois quietly approved the first municipal presidential impeachment initiative in American history on April 11th, 2006.
News of the San Francisco decision was withheld until today because Supervisor Chris Daly, who drafted the measure, was on vacation. In addition to Supervisor Daly, Supervisors Ross Mirkarimi, Tom Ammiano, and Jake McGoldrick signed the measure. Constitution Summer helped Supervisor Daly's office select constitutionally grounded language based on the Articles of Impeachment Against George W. Bush, which was drawn up by the attorneys at the Center for Constitutional Rights. These articles include: the Bush Administration's felonious disregard for the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978, which governs electronic surveillance in the United States; the initiation of an illegal war of aggression based on fraudulent claims; extraordinary rendition, indefinite detention, and torture; and an unconstitutional arrogation of power to the executive branch. In addition to these Articles, Supervisor Daly added the Bush Administration's failure to adequately respond to the Hurricane Katrina disaster as a failure to faithfully execute the laws of the United States.
The Articles of Impeachment included in the San Francisco initiative, and with exception of the Katrina response issue, the rationale behind them, are available in a book entitled The Articles of Impeachment Against George W. Bush, published by Melville House Publishing. Melville House recently organized a series of national impeachment teach-ins based on the book, the largest of which was co-sponsored and organized by Constitution Summer. Constitution Summer's teach-in was attended by hundreds of people, and the speakers included Center for Constitutional Rights Legal Director Bill Goodman, Constitution Summer Advisory Board Member Daniel Ellsberg, and Constitution Summer President Geoffrey King.
Of the San Francisco Impeachment Initiative, King says, "The President and Vice President claim that they are protecting American freedom by surveilling and disappearing anyone they please, including American citizens, by tricking the people and Congress of the United States into an unnecessary war, and by creating a massive torture bureaucracy. They claim that this behavior is lawful and constitutional, and that no other branch of government should be able to check their power. A chorus of millions of Americans is saying that the President and Vice President are wrong, and today, the City of San Francisco has complimented that chorus with an instrument of democracy, the direct referendum."
Coincidentally, Supervisor Daly's announcement of the San Francisco Impeachment Initiative coincides with the 32nd anniversary of the resignation of Richard M. Nixon. Dr. Daniel Ellsberg, a member of the Constitution Summer Advisory Board, leaked the now famous Pentagon Papers that the press ultimately used to reveal the impossibility of winning the war in Vietnam. President Nixon's retaliation against Dr. Ellsberg led directly to Nixon's resignation. Dr. Ellsberg said of Constitution Summer's work:
"The young men and women of Constitution Summer are like the people under General Washington in Valley Forge. And General Washington's ragtag group did win, incidentally."
In addition to the San Francisco initiative, lobbyists Susie Shannon of Poverty Matters and Sophie de Vries of After Downing Street met with staff from Assemblymember Paul Koretz's office in Sacramento, where Shannon and de Vries presented a petition with the names of thousands of Californians who support impeachment. Assemblymember Koretz is the author of the AJR39, a Califor
