Recently, I have started to talk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtBazX6xpaM) to the "progressives" in this country about addressing (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BjLaBvN__z0) the lies and cover-ups of 9/11.
In a talk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbbnwcxIdBM) I gave in Fresno recently, I said that "progressives" were afraid of losing their "pulpits" if they address the 9/11 issue.
I'm sorry, but this selfish reason is the best explanation I can think of as to why they don't (or, I could say that they are paid shills for the CIA, etc… but I'm not a "Conspiracy Theorist"). The lies and cover-ups of 9/11 are so glaringly obvious (http://911truthnews.com/the-facts-speak-for-themselves/) that when someone who supposedly stands for truth, justice, and accountability doesn't address them, I have to ask why.
As I said in my talk, the media has worked very hard (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8THJsKserXU) to make anyone (http://911truthnews.com/methinks-thou-dost-protest-too-much/) that questions the official account of 9/11 the equivalent of a dog torturer or a baby killer. Losing one's "pulpit" because of being painted with the "9/11 Truth Brush" is the best explanation I can think of.
Years ago (before the media had a chance to have its anti-9/11 Truth campaign), MANY "progressives (http://www.911truth.org/article.php?story=20041026093059633)" were supportive of the cause for 9/11 Justice. People like Howard Zinn (RIP), Michael Badnarik, Medea Benjamin, David Cobb, Daniel Ellsberg, Janeane Garofalo, Stan Goff, Thom Hartmann, Rob Kall, Cynthia McKinney, Ralph Nader, and many others. This is no longer the case (with few exceptions for sure).
I was told today that "Social justice, anti war, environment, political reform = 1 movement. (And all doomed to fail, until everyone involved learns that fact.)" I think this person is right.
I have been VERY supportive over the years of the movements for Anti-War, Occupy, Civil Liberties, Bradley Manning, Rape In The Military, the BP Oil Spill, Palestinians, Healthcare, and many others. How many in those movements can say they regularly point out the lies about 9/11? Not too many. This needs to change.
People are still dying because of how that day is being used. Liberties are still being destroyed because of how that day is being used. There are still family members that have to watch the names of their loved ones used to do all of these things, all the while not knowing what happened that day or who was ultimately responsible. The lies and cover-ups of 9/11 are just as relevant today as they ever were.
I'm not asking "progressives" to say that "9/11 WAS AN INSIDE JOB!!!" I'm not asking "progressives" to make 9/11 THE issue for them. I'm not asking "progressives" to play nice with these people (http://911truthnews.com/were-in-a-lot-of-trouble/). As far as I'm concerned, telling people that "we were lied to about 9/11" is good enough for me.
The reason I have been so supportive of all of those different movements (including the ones that aren't directly related to 9/11) is because to me, it's a "no brainer." The 9/11 Card needs to be taken away. The killing needs to stop. I can't think of any faster way to do that than by taking away the justification for it. To "progressives," this should also be a no-brainer.
Truth be told, if "progressives" did start speaking out about the lies of 9/11, their popularity among the people would probably soar.
Please do what you know in your hearts is the right thing.
Speak the truth, even if your voice shakes.
