MER EDITORIAL:
THE MOTHER OF ALL HOAXES?
World Trade Tower 'Controlled Demolition'?
MIDDLEEAST.ORG - Washington - 15 June: MER has never before published this story, this 'conspiracy theory' if you will. Though under much pressure over the years to do so we always held back and never published anything about this 'possibility'...until today that is. But now the fact that a ranking former Bush Administration official, in fact the man who was the top government economist in the Labor Department on 11 September 2001, has now gone public saying 9/11 may have been a historic hoax and the World Trade Towers were 'most likely' destroyed by a 'controlled demolition', causes us to reconsider. This is far too important to simply dismiss at this point. At the least we conclude this story now deserves far more attention that it has gotten in recent days with nearly the entire corporate media focused on Michael Jackson and various frivolities while this paragraph -- published this week on the UPI wire from Washington in fact -- has hardly had any attention:
A former Bush team member during his first administration is now voicing serious doubts about the collapse of the World Trade Center on 9-11. Former chief economist for the Department of Labor during President George W. Bush's first term Morgan Reynolds comments that the official story about the collapse of the WTC is "bogus" and that it is more likely that a controlled demolition destroyed the Twin Towers and adjacent Building No. 7. Reynolds, who also served as director of the Criminal Justice Center at the National Center for Policy Analysis in Dallas and is now professor emeritus at Texas A&M University said, "If demolition destroyed three steel skyscrapers at the World Trade Center on 9/11, then the case for an 'inside job' and a government attack on America would be compelling." Reynolds commented from his Texas A&M office, "It is hard to exaggerate the importance of a scientific debate over the cause of the collapse of the twin towers and building 7. If the official wisdom on the collapses is wrong, as I believe it is, then policy based on such erroneous engineering analysis is not likely to be correct either. The government's collapse theory is highly vulnerable on its own terms. Only professional demolition appears to account for the full range of facts associated with the collapse of the three buildings."

MER CALLS FOR UNPRECEDENTED
INTERNATIONAL MEDIA INVESTIGATION
We think an unprecedented international press investigation is now called for to match this unprecedented historical situation -- one totally independent of all governments, intelligence agencies, and pressure groups; and one bringing together a coalition of major international media from various political and national dispositions. What happened is a totally modern-day sui generis event with the greatest of history-changing consequences. Taking place so soon after Ariel Sharon came to power in Israel, and the Bush/Cheney Administration put so many former Israeli-Jewish lobby 'Neocons' in key power positions throughout Washington was suspicious from the start. But in the past we thought these suspicions had more to do with what the U.S. and Israeli governments really knew in advance, and what steps they were fast preparing to take whenever they had the excuse to do so regardless of the actual facts. But now we have to add to the larger picture that there is quite a long history of major political/military deceptions and hoaxes originating both with the Israelis and from Washington. To mention just a few that history has so far unraveled includes the sinkings of the Maine and the Lusitania, the Lavon Affair, the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, the deceptions behind the 1967, 1982 and Gulf Wars, the Iraq-Kuwait-US invasion, the 'Oslo Peace Process', and most recently the 'Stealth Assassination' of Yasser Arafat after the assassinations of the senior Hamas leadership. Add to this historical brew quite a few other very suspicious developments that have come to light including the jubilant Israelis caught after photographing the WTC's collapse, all the unexplained developments in Lebanon, the blatant lies and cons surrounding the Iraq invasion including Colin Powel's testimony before the Security Council, and looking ahead at the moment the considerable preparations to take down Iran one way or another. And so we conclude that such an unprecedented situation on top of such already proven lies and deceptions datelineWashington, London, and Israel, all call for an unprecedented coalition of credible major media from many countries to come together for a White Paper investigation of 9/11 focusing on the following specific issues:
1) What really happened on 9/11 and who knew what in advance?
2) Had the U.S. government prepared in advance to exploit such an event as 9/11, whether the full story is now known or not, in order to pursue geostrategic goals decided upon in advance regardless of the actual facts of the situation?
3) What is known about the behind-the-scenes contacts and coordination between the U.S. and Israeli governments, and the crucial role played by the leading American Jewish Neocons who held key power and intelligence positions in Washington at the time of 9/11?

1. I find it amazing

that a publication from www.middleeast.org would place blame on both Bush and Israel. I wonder what their motivation for doing that is?

The inside guy from the Bush admin is an economist. He can believe whatever he wants but is in no way qualified to make the determination that it was brought down on purpose with a controlled demolition.

An investigation would be nice. Maybe that would shut these people up. Oh, wait. If the results are not what they want to hear it will be deemed biased and influenced by Bush no matter how open and nonpartisan the investigating panel is.

For the people who wrote that article it is not about getting the truth. It is about blaming Bush and Israel for anything they can think of.

2. What about Barak on the BBC...............

Barak was on the BBC on 9/11 just after the towers collapsed saying that Arafat was behind the attack........

Let's see you dismiss him in the same manner.

[Sgt. Baker]

4. I will

Barak is just as much opposed to Arabs as those at middleeast.org are to him and Israel. Neither is credible in their accusations against eachother regarding 9/11. Both have prejudices clouding their judgement.

5. But the point is that these people initially didn't believe the conspiracy

theories but the former Bush official coming out and expressing his doubts about 9/11 shook them up.

There's got to be many other people who are also waking up after listening to Reynolds or to David Ray Griffin or to whoever-- and the more people wake-up, the more people will speak out. The more people speak out, there will be less fear, less taboo for talking about 9/11 and then hopefully eventually we'll get some really brave insiders to give us the scoop on what really happened.

3. Watched the towers coming down footage again in Hijacking Catastrophe

those towers, all three came down by controlled
demolition...there's no way all that fine dust
covered the city with spotted fires in two
towers.

If people think fixing intelligence to go into
Iraq is bad...when they finally wake up to 9/11
complicity...all hell will break loose.

6. you don't find it plausible?

I take it you don't find it plausible that the combination of intense heat, stress, and a major blow to the building's exterior and core would be enough to bring it down?

Why is that?
