Families who fought for 9/11 commission declare it a failure
(Posted in LBN. blm requested it posted here, too.)

Via RawStory:

September 11 Victim Families who Fought to Create the 9/11 Commission Declare it a Failure on the First Anniversary of the 9/11 Report.

WASHINGTON - July 21 - On Friday, July 22, 2005, one year to the day after the release of the "9/11 Commission Report," Project Censored founder, Dr. Peter Phillips will lead a National Press Club briefing entitled "The Failure of the 9/11 Commission Report and the Mainstream Media's Disregard." The briefing will feature scores of detailed examples of the Commission's flawed findings, self-censorship, misrepresentations and conflicts of interest that call the accuracy and integrity of their entire investigation into doubt.

Time: 1:00-2:30 PM, Friday, July 22, 2005 Place: Holeman Lounge, National Press Club, Washington, DC Sponsor: DC Emergency Truth Convergence http://truthemergency.us

Lead presenters are 9/11 family members and Family Steering Committee cofounders, Monica Gabrielle, Mindy Kleinberg and Lorie Van Auken. After the FSC members' 18 months of lobbying finally forced a 9/11 investigation and the Commission's creation, they submitted hundreds of unanswered questions that Commissioner Jamie Gorelick promised would be their investigation's "road map". However, by these courageous widows' count, the Commission ignored approximately 70% of their concerns, and also suppressed important evidence and whistleblower testimony that challenged the official story on many fronts.

Dr. David Ray Griffin, will address "9/11 and the Mainstream Press." Griffin's new book, "The 9/11 Commission Report - Omissions and Distortions," analyzes over 115 specific lies, omissions and misrepresentations contained in the final document. He not only details individual lies and the larger patterns they form, he also documents glaring conflicts of interest within the Commission, especially the executive staff who steered, shaped and effectively wrote the final report.

1. There is now too much information for people to cover up...
Historians will by and large agree that 9/11 was either a LIHOP or a MIHOP.

Compared to the rumors that Pearl Harbor was a LIHOP, the evidence to support 9/11 LIHOP/MIHOP theories is overwhelming.

6. I agree
There is so much evidence out there that it was either/or. I think it was MIHOP cause they have their plans laid out on that website of NAC and also they ignored SOOOO many warnings and were having "prepations" but yet didn't do anything? :crazy:

8. I just watched "confronting the evidence" today
The evidence for LIHOP is indeed staggering, and its only a matter of time before the truth gets out. I plan to do my part by copying and spreading this powerful DVD. For anybody who hasn't seen it its free and very highly recommended. They even pay for shipping, so check it out
