NYC Truth Group unveils shocking banner at WTC.
Edited on Wed Jan-07-04 08:47 PM by Emillereid
Anyone know anything about this? I got it from another discussion group.
edited trying to insert the picture of the banner. Caps were in the original headline -- sorry.


"A group of people in New York city, belonging to a group I had not
heard of yet, "NYC Truth Group," unveiled a banner at the WTC site
which read: "THE BUSH REGIME ENGINEERED 9-11." Are people beginning
to wake up to the 9-11 fraud?

This incident goes a step beyond which happened some time back when
signs started appearing around the country which read simply: "BUSH
KNEW." Obviously knowing about something and engineering it are quite
different statements to make. The group is also making a hero of
Ellen Mariani who is bringing a lawsuit against the Bush
administration for knowingly allowing 9-11 to happen.

A number of people were visibly upset at the sight of the sign, but
according to the NYC Truth Group a far greater number of bystanders
applauded their efforts and said they were glad they were there...."

NYC 9-11 Truth Takes Back Group


by Michael Kane

January 4, 2004



The NYC Truth Movement permanently, and completely, took back Ground
Zero from the Neo-Conservative false-patriotic agenda. In true New
York fashion, 911 Truth activists unveiled the now legendary banner,
which read, "THE BUSH REGIME ENGINEERED 9-11" in front of the World
Trade Center footprint....

19. That sounds very republican of you.
Edited on Wed Jan-07-04 10:22 PM by Sterling
What makes you think these people don't have jobs?

Do you know where I can get on the dole to be a 9-11 activist? I was unaware the Bush administration was handing out funding through the governmnt for such activities. Sounds like good idea though.

I would gladly have my tax dollars work to expose Bush regarding 9-11. Any loyal American would don't you think?

Thanks for kicking this thread btw.

36. How much of your tax money is going to Iraq for the defense, oil
industry, Carlyle group,etc? How many of the employees of Enron are now on the dole ,eating up YOUR tax dollars? How many corporations pay no taxes forcing (I assume you are middle class) the middle class to pay more taxes through the always increasing hidden payroll tax?

37. this NYC event was on a SATURDAY . . a weekend
If mr.wunnerful were to actually READ the article instead of spewing tired cliches, he might notice that the event was held on a Saturday!

"get a job"
Protesters hear this juvenile yell all the time, at Saturday protests. Nearly ALL of them are fully employed during the weekdays.

Edited on Thu Jan-08-04 02:24 AM by TheWatcher
It is always the same with people like this....Always cute one liners that attack someone's position, but they never seem to have any facts of their own to share.....

My question is, why not? Why not share the information with everyone? Look, there is NO ONE on DU who really wants to believe our Government had ANYTHING to do with 9/11.....There is no one in this COUNTRY that does....

But it is time to face facts.....There is PLENTY of evidence that is verifiable and documented that simply does not vindicate the government from suspiscion, or at the very least some very tough questioning.....

The one thing that should disturb people the most is that when confronted by these things, no one ever seems to be able to explain it away or offer a counter argument....Only personal attacks and the tired fall-back on blind nationalism, patriotism, and jingoism.....

We need to get to the bottom of 9/11.....

It should be the #1 priority of everyone in this country, and it should be second ONLY to getting rid of the people in Power in this country.....

I truly believe if we don't, then our future as a country really doesn't hold much of a chance of progressing to where we need it to be.....Nor do we deserve to....

35. Very well said,
the Watcher. 9-11 has been used as false justification for all destructive policies, and is worthy of activists immediate attention. The 9-11 Commission is set to exprire in May, so the aware American public need to raise Cain NOW!

13. Well if you read the PNAC agenda on their website
where they talk about a 'Pearl Harbor' type of event being the catalyst for an all-out war on terrorism and world domination, then consider how many signatories to PNAC are in the high levels of this administration. ... "Engineering" become a polite euphemism.

They planned everything they are doing now before 9-11 and could not be doing it without their "pearl".

14. They've been hanging out with that banner around Union Square...
for more than a month. I always give them a smile when I see them. For those that don't know NYC, Union Square is where the candlelight vigils were centered after 9/11. The city recently redesigned the front of the park into a terraced plaza and it's a great place to people watch and to protest.

29. Cassandra!
Where have you been all my life? My absolute favorite literary figure, so cruelly defamed by all the pedants of positivism who ignore she was spot-on about every last blow she saw coming, to the hilt (sorry).

Why just smile? Why not join in? When next you roll past, just ask for Jack R. He's sick of his Polly Annas and needs a woman with brains and a thousand-yard stare.

Yee-haw!

9-11 Visibility Project-Kansas City will be hosting Ellen Mariani and her lawyer in Kansas City on February 22nd. Come and listen to their first hand experiences and hear what the complicit corporate media is keeping from American citizens.

The 9-11 victim's families deserve the truth.


from the New York 9-11 Visibility article:
http://septembereleventh.org/newsarchive/2004-01-04-groundzero.php

"All day we championed American Patriot Ellen Mariani; we told everyone of the lawsuit she filed against the Bush administration for allowing the 9-11 attacks to happen for political gain. Over 1,000 Deception Dollars were handed out. One woman was distributing Mindy Kleinberg’s historic statement to the so-called “Independent” Commission to investigate 9-11. We let everyone know the Commission has been reduced to a Cover-Up Commission"

22. Outstanding
As Sterling said, this move took a lot of balls.
I am glad this is at least getting some attention.

I think the first way to get any kind of real investigation into all of this is to first get the nation to be willing to accept that Bush at the very least knowingly let it happen.

26. THIS ACTION WILL CONTINUE EVERY WEEK
Saturday is 9/11 Truth Day! Join it!

From now on the NYC 9/11 Truth group will hold vigils at Ground Zero every Saturday at High Noon

until the RNC comes to town with their deathporn exploitation, their moron coronation

in Year 3 and beyond

don't care if it's Re-Selection or Resignation

we're out on the street now

we're out to Impeach now

'til the archives are flung open and the witnesses sworn in

until Truth comes to town.

Other Towns may join, any Saturday is 9/11 Truth Day!

27. I'd love to get something started in Nashville, but I'd get shot
My city's pretty damned conservative, and I'll admit my balls aren't so large as to do something like this in that environment....

Kudos for those doing this, though! Stick it to Bushco, guys!

42. Kingston, NY! That's amazing......it a very small town. Glad to see
that. I think the larger cities will get the ball rolling on this. It's very hard for us in very conservative areas to do much with this. The large cities can get alot more supporters and have at least liberal support if they are hauled into jail.
