so we can spread this message virally . . . ]

9/11 Truthers are Nuts!

Or are they?

Let's take a look:

MILITARY LEADERS

Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense under President Ronald Reagan
(Col. Ronald D. Ray) said that the official story of 9/11 is "the dog
that doesn't hunt" (bio)

Director of the U.S. "Star Wars" space defense program in both
Republican and Democratic administrations, who was a senior air force
colonel who flew 101 combat missions (Col. Robert Bowman) stated that
9/11 was an inside job. He also said:
"If our government had merely [done] nothing, and I say that as an
old interceptor pilot—I know the drill, I know what it takes, I know
how long it takes, I know what the procedures are, I know what they
were, and I know what they've changed them to—if our government had
merely done nothing, and allowed normal procedures to happen on that
morning of 9/11, the Twin Towers would still be standing and
thousands of dead Americans would still be alive. [T]hat is treason!"
U.S. Army Air Defense Officer and NORAD Tac Director, decorated with
the Purple Heart, the Bronze Star and the Soldiers Medal (Capt.
Daniel Davis) stated:

"there is no way that an aircraft . . . would not be intercepted when
they deviate from their flight plan, turn off their transponders, or
stop communication with Air Traffic Control ... Attempts to obscure
facts by calling them a 'conspiracy Theory' does not change the
truth. It seems, 'Something is rotten in the State.' "
President of the U.S. Air Force Accident Investigation Board, who
also served as Pentagon Weapons Requirement Officer and as a member
of the Pentagon's Quadrennial Defense Review, and who was awarded
Distinguished Flying Crosses for Heroism, four Air Medals, four
Meritorious Service Medals, and nine Aerial Achievement Medals (Lt.
Col. Jeff Latas) is a member of a group which doubts the government's
version of 9/11

U.S. General, Commanding General of U.S. European Command and Supreme
Allied Commander Europe, decorated with the Bronze Star, Silver Star,
and Purple Heart (General Wesley Clark) said "We've never finished
the investigation of 9/11 and whether the administration actually
misused the intelligence information it had. The evidence seems
pretty clear to me. I've seen that for a long time."

Air Force Colonel and key Pentagon official (Lt. Colonel Karen
Kwiatkowski) finds various aspects of 9/11 suspicious

Lieutenant colonel, 24-year Air Force career, Vice Chancellor for
Student Affairs at the Defense Language Institute (Lt. Colonel Steve
Butler) said "Of course Bush knew about the impending attacks on
America. He did nothing to warn the American people because he needed
this war on terrorism."

Two-Star general (Major General Albert Stubbelbine) questions the
attack on the Pentagon

U.S. Air Force fighter pilot, former instructor at the USAF Fighter
Weapons School and NATO's Tactical Leadership Program, with a 20-year
Air Force career (Lt. Colonel Guy S. Razer) said the following:

"I am 100% convinced that the attacks of September 11, 2001 were
planned, organized, and committed by treasonous perpetrators that
have infiltrated the highest levels of our government ....

Those of us in the military took an oath to "support and defend the
Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and
domestic". Just because we have retired does not make that oath
invalid, so it is not just our responsibility, it is our duty to
expose the real perpetrators of 9/11 and bring them to justice, no
matter how hard it is, how long it takes, or how much we have to
suffer to do it.

We owe it to those who have gone before us who executed that same
oath, and who are doing the same thing in Iraq and Afghanistan right
now. Those of us who joined the military and faithfully executed
orders that were given us had to trust our leaders. The violation and
abuse of that trust is not only heinous, but ultimately the most
accurate definition of treason!"
U.S. Marine Corps lieutenant colonel, a fighter pilot with over 300
combat missions flown and a 21-year Marine Corps career (Lt. Colonel
Shelton F. Lankford) believes that 9/11 was an inside job, and said:

"This isn't about party, it isn't about Bush Bashing. It's about our
country, our constitution, and our future. ...

Your countrymen have been murdered and the more you delve into it the
more it looks as though they were murdered by our government, who
used it as an excuse to murder other people thousands of miles away.

If you ridicule others who have sincere doubts and who know factual
information that directly contradicts the official report and who
want explanations from those who hold the keys to our government, and
have motive, means, and opportunity to pull off a 9/11, but you are
too lazy or fearful, or ... to check into the facts yourself, what
does that make you? ....

Are you afraid that you will learn the truth and you can't handle
it? ..."

U.S. Navy 'Top Gun' pilot (Commander Ralph Kolstad) who questions the
official account of 9/11 and is calling for a new investigation,
says "When one starts using his own mind, and not what one was told,
there is very little to believe in the official story".

The Group Director on matters of national security in the U.S.
Government Accountability Office said that President Bush did not
respond to unprecedented warnings of the 9/11 disaster and conducted
a massive cover-up instead of accepting responsibility

Additionally, numerous military leaders from allied governments have
questioned 9/11, such as:

Canadian Minister of Defense, the top military leader of Canada (Paul
Hellyer)

Assistant German Defense Minister (Andreas Von Bulow)

Commander-in-chief of the Russian Navy (Anatoli Kornukov)

Chief of staff of the Russian armed forces (General Leonid Ivashov)

INTELLIGENCE PROFESSIONALS

A 27-year CIA veteran, who chaired National Intelligence Estimates
and personally delivered intelligence briefings to Presidents Ronald
Reagan and George H.W. Bush, their Vice Presidents, Secretaries of
State, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and many other senior government
officials (Raymond McGovern) said "I think at simplest terms, there's
a cover-up. The 9/11 Report is a joke", and is open to the
possibility that 9/11 was an inside job.

A 29-year CIA veteran, former National Intelligence Officer (NIO) and
former Director of the CIA's Office of Regional and Political
Analysis (William Bill Christison) said "I now think there is
persuasive evidence that the events of September did not unfold as
the Bush administration and the 9/11 Commission would have us
believe. ... All three [buildings that were destroyed in the World
Trade Center] were most probably destroyed by controlled demolition
charges placed in the buildings before 9/11." (and see this).

20-year Marine Corps infantry and intelligence officer, the second-
ranking civilian in U.S. Marine Corps Intelligence, and former CIA
clandestine services case officer (David Steele) stated that "9/11
was at a minimum allowed to happen as a pretext for war", and it was
probably an inside job (see Customer Review dated October 7, 2006).

A decorated 20-year CIA veteran, whose Pulitzer-Prize winning
investigative reporter Seymour Hersh called "perhaps the best on-the-
ground field officer in the Middle East", and astounding career
formed the script for the Academy Award winning motion picture
Syriana (Robert Baer) said that"the evidence points at" 9/11 having
had aspects of being an inside job .

The Division Chief of the CIA's Office of Soviet Affairs, who served
as Senior Analyst from 1966 - 1990. He also served as Professor of
International Security at the National War College from 1986 - 2004
(Melvin Goodman) said "The final [9/11 Commission] report is
ultimately a coverup."

Professor of History and International Relations, University of
Maryland. Former Executive Assistant to the Director of the National
Security Agency. Former military attaché in China. 21-year career in
U.S. Army Intelligence (Major John M. Newman, PhD, U.S. Army)
questions the government's version of the events of 9/11.

The head of all U.S. intelligence, the Director of National
Intelligence (Mike McConnel) said "9/11 should have and could have
been prevented"

9/11 COMMISSIONERS

The 9/11 Commissioners knew that military officials lied to the
Commission, and considered recommending criminal charges for such
false statements, yet didn't bother to tell the American people (free
subscription required).

Indeed, the co-chairs of the Commission (Thomas Keane and Lee
Hamilton) now admit that the Commission largely operated based upon
political considerations.
9/11 Commission co-chair Lee Hamilton says "I don't believe for a
minute we got everything right", that the Commission was set up to
fail, that people should keep asking questions about 9/11, that the
9/11 debate should continue, and that the 9/11 Commission report was
only "the first draft" of history.

9/11 Commissioner Bob Kerrey said that "There are ample reasons to
suspect that there may be some alternative to what we outlined in our
version . . . We didn't have access . . . ."

9/11 Commissioner Timothy Roemer said "We were extremely frustrated
with the false statements we were getting"

Former 9/11 Commissioner Max Cleland resigned from the Commission,
stating: "It is a national scandal"; "This investigation is now
compromised"; and "One of these days we will have to get the full
story because the 9-11 issue is so important to America. But this
White House wants to cover it up".

The Senior Counsel to the 9/11 Commission (John Farmer) who led the
9/11 staff's inquiry, said "I was shocked at how different the truth
was from the way it was described .... The tapes told a radically
different story from what had been told to us and the public for two
years.... This is not spin. This is not true."
SCIENTISTS

A prominent physicist with 33 years of service for the Naval Research
Laboratory in Washington, DC (Dr. David L. Griscom) said that the
official theory for why the Twin Towers and world trade center
building 7 collapsed "does not match the available facts" and
supports the theory that the buildings were brought down by
controlled demolition

A world-renowned scientist, recipient of the National Medal of
Science, America's highest honor for scientific achievement (Dr. Lynn
Margulis) said:
"I suggest that those of us aware and concerned demand that the
glaringly erroneous official account of 9/11 be dismissed as a fraud
and a new, thorough, and impartial investigation be undertaken."
The former head of the Fire Science Division of the government agency
which claims that the World Trade Centers collapsed due to fire (the
National Institute of Standards and Technology), who is a Ph.D. in
mechanical engineering, with more than 25 years experience in fire
research and its applications, and is a professor in the Department
of Fire Protection Engineering at the University of Maryland (Dr.
James Quintiere), called for an independent review of the World Trade
Center Twin Tower collapse investigation. "I wish that there would be
a peer review of this," he said, referring to the NIST
investigation. "I think all the records that NIST has assembled
should be archived. I would really like to see someone else take a
look at what they've done; both structurally and from a fire point of
view. ... I think the official conclusion that NIST arrived at is
questionable."

Former Director for Research, Director for Aeronautical Projects, and
Flight Research Program Manager for NASA's Dryden Flight Research
Center, who holds masters degrees in both physics and engineering
(Dwain A. Deets) says:
"The many visual images (massive structural members being hurled
horizontally, huge pyroclastic clouds, etc.) leave no doubt in my
mind explosives were involved [in the destruction of the World Trade
Centers on 9/11].''
A prominent physicist, former U.S. professor of physics from a top
university, and a former principal investigator for the U.S.
Department of Energy, Division of Advanced Energy Projects (Dr.
Steven E. Jones) stated that the world trade centers were brought
down by controlled demolition

A U.S. physics professor who teaches at several universities (Dr.
Crockett Grabbe) believes that the World Trade Centers were brought
down by controlled demolition

An expert on demolition (Bent Lund) said that the trade centers were
brought down with explosives (in Danish)
A Dutch demolition expert (Danny Jowenko) stated that WTC 7 was
imploded

A safety engineer and accident analyst for the Finnish National
Safety Technology Authority (Dr. Heikki Kurttila) stated regarding
WTC 7 that "The great speed of the collapse and the low value of the
resistance factor strongly suggest controlled demolition."
A 13-year professor of metallurgical engineering at a U.S.
university, with a PhD in materials engineering, a former
Congressional Office of Technology Assessment Senior Staff Member
(Dr. Joel S. Hirschhorn), is calling for a new investigation of 9/11
A Danish professor of chemistry (Dr. Niels Harrit) said, in a
mainstream Danish newspaper, "WTC7 collapsed exactly like a house of
cards. If the fires or damage in one corner had played a decisive
role, the building would have fallen in that direction. You don't
have to be a woodcutter to grasp this" (translated)
A former guidance systems engineer for Polaris and Trident missiles
and professor emeritus, mathematics and computer science at a
university concluded (Dr. Bruce R. Henry) that the Twin Towers "were
brought down by planted explosives."

A professor of mathematics (Gary Welz) said "The official explanation
that I've heard doesn't make sense because it doesn't explain why I
heard and felt an explosion before the South Tower fell and why the
concrete was pulverized"

STRUCTURAL ENGINEERS AND ARCHITECTS

A prominent engineer with 55 years experience, in charge of the
design of hundreds of major building projects including high rise
offices, former member of the California Seismic Safety Commission
and former member of the National Institute of Sciences Building
Safety Council (Marx Ayres) believes that the World Trade Centers
were brought down by controlled demolition (see also this)
Two professors of structural engineering at a prestigious Swiss
university (Dr. Joerg Schneider and Dr. Hugo Bachmann) said that, on
9/11, World Trade Center 7 was brought down by controlled demolition
(translation here)
Charles Pegelow, structural engineer, of Houston, Texas (and see this)

Dennis Kollar, structural engineer, of West Bend, Wisconsin

Doyle Winterton, structural engineer (retired)

Haluk Akol, Structural Engineer and architect (ret.)

William Rice, P.E., structural engineer, former professor of Vermont
Technical College

An architect, member of the American Institute of Architects, who has
been a practicing architect for 20 years and has been responsible for
the production of construction documents for numerous steel-framed
and fire-protected buildings for uses in many different areas,
including education, civic, rapid transit and industrial use (Richard
Gage) disputes the claim that fire and airplane damage brought down
the World Trade Centers and believes there is strong evidence of
controlled demolition (many other architects who question 9/11 are
listed here)

Retired Chief Assistant Public Defender, Contra Costa County,
California 31-year career (William Veale) said:

"When you grow up in the United States, there are some bedrock
principles that require concerted effort to discard. One is the
simplest: that our leaders are good and decent people whose efforts
may occasionally warrant criticism but never because of malice or
venality... But one grows up. ... And with the lawyer's training
comes the reliance on evidence and the facts that persuade... After a
lot of reading, thought, study, and commiseration, I have come to the
conclusion that the attacks of 9/11 were, in their essence, an inside
job perpetrated at the highest levels of the U S government."
MEMBERS OF CONGRESS

Current U.S. Senator (Patrick Leahy) states "The two questions that
the congress will not ask . . . is why did 9/11 happen on George
Bush's watch when he had clear warnings that it was going to happen?
Why did they allow it to happen?"

Current Republican Congressman (Ron Paul) states that "we see the
[9/11] investigations that have been done so far as more or less
cover-up and no real explanation of what went on"

Current Democratic Congressman (Dennis Kucinich) hints that we aren't
being told the truth about 9/11

Former Democratic Senator (Mike Gravel) states that he supports a new
9/11 investigation and that we don't know the truth about 9/11

Former U.S. Republican Congressman and senior member of the House
Armed Services Committee, and who served six years as the Chairman of
the Military Research and Development Subcommittee (Curt Weldon) has
shown that the U.S. tracked hijackers before 9/11, is open to hearing
information about explosives in the Twin Towers, and is open to the
possibility that 9/11 was an inside job

FAMILY MEMBERS AND HEROIC FIRST RESPONDERS

A common criticism of those who question 9/11 is that they are
being "disrespectful to the victims and their families".

However, half of the victim's families believe that 9/11 was an
inside job (according to the head of the largest 9/11 family group,
Bill Doyle) (and listen to this interview). Many family and friends
of victims not only support the search for 9/11 truth, but they
demand it (please ignore the partisan tone). See also this interview.

Indeed, it has now become so clear that the 9/11 Commission was a
whitewash that the same 9/11 widows who called for the creation of
the 9/11 Commission are now demanding a NEW investigation (see also
this video).

And dying heroes, soon-to-be victims themselves, the first responders
who worked tirelessly to save lives on and after 9/11, say that
controlled demolition brought down the Twin Towers and that a real
investigation is necessary.

PSYCHIATRISTS AND PSYCHOLOGISTS

Finally, those who attack people who question the government's
version of 9/11 as "crazy" may wish to review the list of mental
health professionals who have concluded that the official version of
9/11 is false:

Psychiatrist Carol S. Wolman, MD

Psychiatrist E. Martin Schotz

Associate Clinical Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences,
Duke University Medical Center, as well as Radiology, at Duke
University Medical Center D. Lawrence Burk, Jr., MD

Board of Governors Distinguished Service Professor of Psychology and

Retired Professor of Psychology at Oxford University Graham Harris

Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from the University of Nebraska and
licensed Psychologist Ronald Feintech

Ph.D. Clinical Neuropsychologist Richard Welser

THOUSANDS OF OTHERS

The roster above is only a sample. There are too many Ph.D.
scientists and engineers, architects, military and intelligence
officials, politicians, legal scholars and other highly-credible
people who question 9/11 -- literally thousands -- to list in one
place. Here are a few additional people to consider:

The former director of the FBI (Louis Freeh) says there was a cover
up by the 9/11 Commission

Former air traffic controller, who knows the flight corridor which
the two planes which hit the Twin Towers flew "like the back of my
hand" and who handled two actual hijackings (Robin Hordon) says that
9/11 could not have occurred as the government says, and that planes
can be tracked on radar even when their transponders are turned off
(also, listen to this interview)

Perhaps "the premiere collapse expert in the country", who 9/11
Commissioner Timothy Roemer referred to as a "very, very respected
expert on building collapse", the head of the New York Fire
Department's Special Operations Command and the most highly decorated
firefighter in its NYFD history, who had previously "commanded rescue
operations at many difficult and complex disasters, including the
Oklahoma City Bombing, the 1993 World Trade Center Bombing, and many
natural disasters worldwide" thought that the collapse of the South
Tower was caused by bombs, because the collapse of the building was
too even to have been caused by anything else (pages 5-6).

Former Deputy Secretary for Intelligence and Warning under Nixon,
Ford, and Carter (Morton Goulder), former former Deputy Director to
the White House Task Force on Terrorism (Edward L. Peck), and former
US Department of State Foreign Service Officer (J. Michael
Springmann), as well as a who's who of liberals and independents)
jointly call for a new investigation into 9/11

Former FBI agent (Robert Wright) says "The FBI, rather than trying to
prevent a terrorist attack, was merely gathering intelligence so they
would know who to arrest when a terrorist attack occurred."
Pentagon Papers whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg said that some of the
claims concerning government involvement in 9/11 are credible,
that "very serious questions have been raised about what they [U.S.
government officials] knew beforehand and how much involvement there
might have been", that engineering 9/11 would not be humanly or
psychologically beyond the scope of the current administration, and
that there's enough evidence to justify a new, "hard-hitting"
investigation into 9/11 with subpoenas and testimony taken under oath

Former FBI translator, who the Department of Justice's Inspector
General and several senators have called extremely credible (free
subscription required) (Sibel Edmonds), said "If they were to do real
investigations we would see several significant high level criminal
prosecutions in this country. And that is something that they are not
going to let out. And, believe me; they will do everything to cover
this up". She also is leaning towards the conclusion that 9/11 was an
inside job.
Hmmm . . . maybe 9/11 Truthers are not nuts.

Secrecy is the freedom tyrants dream of. -- Bill Moyers
