Michael Scheuer, "...our political elite does not care about protecting Americans"

Fox favorite Michael Scheuer admitted on Glenn Beck’s program that the government doesn’t care about protecting Americans. Notice how Beck ends the interview shortly thereafter? I don’t think that Beck was expecting him to make such a strong charge against the government. The next time that Beck starts calling ‘conspiracy theorists’ kooks he should be reminded of this exchange. The government didn't care about Americans on 9/11 either and many of us have been saying it all along. I have a funny feeling that Scheuer won't be invited back on to Fox anytime soon.

Democracy Now - Mark Crispin Miller on the Death of Mike Connell

(Video/transcript)
http://videocafe.crooksandliars.com/heather/democracy-now-mark-crispin-miller-death-miller

"...We’re told that his plane was running out of gas, which is a little bit odd for a highly experienced pilot like Connell, but apparently, when the plane went down, there was an explosion, a fireball that actually charred and pocked some of the house fronts in the neighborhood...."

".... I mean, this is kind of a grisly thought, but, I mean, I think we should be asking where the body is? We’re told that a trooper on the scene immediately identified Connell. But then we read elsewhere that there was nothing left but debris and that the fireball was enormous. So maybe he wasn’t on the plane. I mean, who knows, when you’re dealing with people as deep as these?...."

Who was Michael Connell?

Paul Wellstone redux?

Stark Co. plane crash: Who was Michael Connell?

"Michael Connell was killed when the Piper Supercub he was piloting crashed three miles short of an Akron-Canton Airport runway. He leaves behind a wife and four children.

Connell, 45, of Bath Township, is considered to be one of the Republican Party's top computer experts. He led the companies that designed websites for the GOP and a virtual who's-who list of republican political leaders including President George W. Bush, Senator John McCain, as well as national organizations. Connell developed a host of federal government software and data management systems. Connell is also said to be a close confidant of the Bush family.

Earlier this year Connell was subpoenaed to testify in an Ohio federal court regarding voter fraud just days before the November presidential election. His alleged intimate knowledge of White House and Capitol Hill email systems has been a hot topic of conversation for Washington insiders regarding the Karl Rove/White House email scandal.

Concerns about deployment of military on U.S. soil growing

http://buzzflash.com/articles/contributors/1813

Concerns about deployment of military on U.S. soil growing -- while mainstream media buries its head in the sand: Naomi Wolf

....

The following is the spin of military spokespeople in response to questions about the deployment of the First Brigade on US soil for the first time in over 200 years.

The Army Times initially reported that the First Brigade would handle domestic crowd control and subduing 'unruly individuals' and that they had 'lethal and nonlethal technologies' to do so. Then it issued a correction declaring that the 'nonlethal' package was not for domestic crowd control. Then after a hue and cry was raised by many citizens, Northern Command (NorthCom) offered a wholesale revision of their mission – and the mainstream media is eating it up. Here is an excerpt from the articled linked to in the previous sentence:

Despite conspiracy theories that this could be a first step toward martial law in the U.S., there won't be tanks on Main Street or active-duty troops putting down demonstrations. That is barred by federal law banning the military from being used on U.S. soil for domestic law enforcement.

Bush Coerced Bosnian Government In To Staging False Terror Threat In 2002

http://www.motherjones.com/mojoblog/archives/2008/10/10385_16_words_detain.html

New Court Filing Suggests Manufactured Terror Threat in Bush's 2002 State of the Union

"A new court filing by the lawyers for Lakhdar Boumediene and five other Guantanamo detainees suggests that the Bush administration ordered the Bosnian government to arrest and hold the men after an exhaustive Bosnian investigation had found them innocent of any terrorism related activity and had ordered their release, in order to use them as props in Bush's January 2002 State of the Union speech.

The filing--"Lakhdar Boumediene, et al., Petitioners, v. George W. Bush, President of the United States, et al., Respondents, Petitioners' Public Traverse to the Government's Return to the Petition for Habeas Corpus"--lays out the case that the Bush administration threatened at the highest levels to withdraw diplomatic and military aid to the Balkan nation if Bosnia released the men, which its own three-month investigation had found innocent of any terrorism charges in the days leading up to Bush's January 2002 State of the Union.

Jesse Ventura To Be On Phil Hendrie’s Show Friday?

Neocon in sheep’s clothing, Phil Hendrie told one of his callers tonight that he would be having Jesse Ventura on as a guest Friday. He then proceeded to call him a, “Self aggrandizing, moron with no brains” who believes in 9/11 truth. Phil loves to insult people when they’re not present to defend themselves. He wouldn’t dare say that to Jesse directly on the air. Hendrie is a coward. Anyway, others here have posted their personal call-ins to his show which demonstrate just how hostile he is to 9/11 truth. Call in Friday and let him have it. As far as I could tell, it's this coming Friday.

Bush's Faustian Deal With the Taliban

Bush's Faustian Deal With the Taliban

"Enslave your girls and women, harbor anti-US terrorists, destroy every vestige of civilization in your homeland, and the Bush Administration will embrace you. All that matters is that you line up as an ally in the drug war, the only international cause that this nation still takes seriously.

That's the message sent with the recent gift of $43 million to the Taliban rulers of Afghanistan, the most virulent anti-American violators of human rights in the world today. The gift, announced last Thursday by Secretary of State Colin Powell, in addition to other recent aid, makes the United States the main sponsor of the Taliban and rewards that "rogue regime" for declaring that opium growing is against the will of God. So, too, by the Taliban's estimation, are most human activities, but it's the ban on drugs that catches this administration's attention.

Ministry 'The Last Sucker'

This album isn’t directly related to 9/11 in content but I felt that they deserved some exposure considering their notorious anti-New World Order stance and 9/11 truth songs from previous albums like LIES LIES LIES which featured audio from 'Loose Change'.

These guys really hate Bush and Cheney. Check out some of the lyrics. I couldn't find any official videos for this newest disc but I'm looking forward to seeing them when they're released. Some pretty heavy stuff.

The cover-up continues

Gov't says FBI agents can't testify about 9/11

"Government lawyers say the ongoing investigation into the Sept. 11 attacks could be compromised if the airline industry is allowed to seek more information from the FBI to defend itself against lawsuits brought by terrorism victims.

In papers filed late Tuesday, the government urged a judge to block aviation companies from interviewing five FBI employees who the companies say will help them prove the government withheld key information before the 2001 attacks.

The lawyers said it would be impossible to interview the employees without disclosing classified or privileged material that could "cause serious damage to national security and interfere with pending law enforcement proceedings."

"The harm described is not hypothetical and cannot be lightly dismissed," according to the court papers submitted by the office of U.S. Attorney Michael Garcia. "Investigators continue to seek out those parties responsible for the 9/11 attacks who remain at large."..."

Rosie O'Donnell Briefly Discussed 9/11 With Howard Stern This Morning

She explained to Howard Stern and crew that the collapse of building seven defied the laws of physics using a billiard ball analogy. She also recommended that Howard have William Rodriguez on his show to discuss his experiences that day and what he had heard BEFORE the planes ever hit the buildings. Howard actually agreed to interview him but I wouldn’t hold my breath. He’s notorious for changing his mind. We’ll see though. That would be huge I think.

History Channel tried to pass off parody site as real truth site

http://www.signs-of-the-times.org/articles/show/138630-History+Channel+tries+to+pass+off+ytmnd+joke+site+%22Jews+Did+WTC%2...

History Channel tries to pass off ytmnd joke site "Jews Did WTC" as real 9-11 truth site!

If you watched the History Channel '9/11 Conspiracies' show last night, you may have noticed how right off the bat they went for the old guilt by association method of associating truthers with the practically nonexistent "Jews did it" crowd. What you may have missed is that in the end of the segment they do a slow zoom into a website in an "evil type way", with the implication it was a truther website, which says "JEWS DID WTC" and flashes Stars of David, the twin towers, and other 9/11 related pictures. What they didn't mention was that this site is a ytmnd parody site! You can see the site right here: http://jewswtc.ytmnd.com/. The history channel is so desperate to slander 9/11 truth that they actually attempted to link the movement to a ridiculous ytmnd parody site! Talk about desperation!

Here’s a breakdown of the History Channel hit piece in a nutshell

Here’s a breakdown of the History Channel hit piece in a nutshell. Boy was this ever a highly unprofessional, condescending, biased work of ad hominem propaganda. Conspiracy theorists were derided throughout the program as being ignorant, mean and kooky with no personal lives. On the other hand, the Popular Mechanics editors were given the last word on each and every subject along with the undeserving title of “expert”. To the best of my knowledge, not one of the pencil pushing staff members have any credentials that are relevant to any aspect of 9/11 truth. Of course it was the conspiracy theorists that were accused of not having anyone of the valid expertise necessary for stating their assertions logically. They do this by completely ignoring the very existence and works of groups like architects and engineers for 9/11 and Pilots for 9/11 truth. Also just as expected, the History Channel failed to disclose the Chertoff connection and other major conflicts of interests that have clearly drastically compromised the research and conclusions of their so-called “experts”. It was disingenuous and deceptive from the very start. It only got worse.

History Channel Hit Piece

According to my Dish network on-screen TV guide the History Channel hit piece is set to air on Monday at 8 pm and 12 am Tuesday (that’s central time for me).

The program description has 9/11 truth basically reduced to being an Internet rumor further conforming our suspicions of a hit piece.

“Conspiracy theories about the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001 grow on the Internet.”
