(Ah, the "Al Qaeda" catch-and-release program is doing well in Yemen. Can you really blame anyone for being cynical about alleged "Al Qaeda" attacks? I guess these assets have been re-deployed. I suspect that the probe has "unraveled" because it was never properly wound. Speaking of re-deployment, where the hell is Ali Mohamed? -rep.)

Probe of USS Cole Bombing Unravels
Plotters freed in Yemen; U.S. Efforts Frustrated

By Craig Whitlock, Washington Post Foreign Service, Sunday, May 4, 2008; Page A01

ADEN, Yemen -- Almost eight years after al-Qaeda nearly sank the USS Cole with an explosives-stuffed motorboat, killing 17 sailors, all the defendants convicted in the attack have escaped from prison or been freed by Yemeni officials.

There has a been a wave of suicides, or perhaps "suicides", in the wake of 9/11 that have become more brazenly suspicious as time goes on. The most bluntly suspicious recently are the deaths of Gary Webb, and very recently, Palestinian activist Riad Hamad. (Hamad's death preceded Palfrey only by a couple of weeks.)

Perhaps Ms. Palfrey's death is a legitimate suicide, however, the deaths of people that are inconvenient to the powers-that-be seems to be chugging along at a steady, ugly pace. This is why people are suspicious. I have put together a little list of recent odd suicides, together with a seldom-heard segment from an interview with Ms. Palfrey in 2007. (The interview is from Coast-to-Coast-am, and I want to be clear that I do not offer a general endorsement of the radio program, but Ms. Palfrey is very frank and enlightening in this interview with Ian Punnett, and I hope you'll agree it's worth hearing. She makes it clear that she was not given a regular ride through the justice system, she was targeted, and persecuted, with post-9/11 surveillance of wire transfers playing a key part.)

Two exceptions: One is Anton Ng, who was flat-out executed in Guatemala, he was an associate of Danny Casolaro's, and was killed shortly before Casolaro while researching BCCI. (Researching BCCI was also not very good for Mark Lombardi's health.) Another is Dr. David M. Graham, who appears to have been poisoned, with an intent to make it look he poisoned himself.

This video is a humorous stab at a real dilemma that voters have to face in this country. Namely, that when it comes to the biggest foreign policy decision that the U.S. will be making in the near future, all three major Presidential candidates offer only minor variances in rhetoric when it comes to Iran. The tacit implication being, they will act pre-emptively;

Senator Obama: "As president I will leave all options on the table for dealing with a threat from Iran including the military options."
http://www2.nysun.com/article/71813?page_no=1

Senator Clinton: "We cannot, we should not, we must not, permit Iran to build or acquire nuclear weapons, and in dealing with this threat, as I have said for a very long time, no option can be taken off the table."
http://www.hillaryclinton.com/news/speech/view/?id=1328

Senator McCain: "You know that old Beach Boys song, Bomb Iran? Heh--heh. Bomb, bomb, bomb-- heh--heh-- anyway..."
http://youtube.com/watch?v=E7tiEt_iguY

"New World Order" is probably too simple of a catch-phrase to reflect the genuine complexity of power relationships that have made the candidates' decisions for them. But I can understand "NufffRespect's" frustration at having no real choice, only options for different shades of malevelonce, with caveats that only exist for CYA and PR purposes.

All that said, I enjoyed this video, I hope that you do too, even if you think "NWO" is not a useful or accurate term ... sometimes satire is more effective than carefully massaged rhetoric.

War on Free Thought and Dissent Reaches Our Children

On 11 September 2001, the world changed. Not because the attacks on the United States were unique, since there have been many documented cases of false flag operations throughout history. The world changed because we forfeited the freedom of generations to come to obtain a delusional sense of security from madmen.

The reason that corporations like the United States even bother to release “official” documents so full of holes that you could fly a plane through them, is because by doing so, every branch of government must regurgitate this “official” story. This means that schools, which are meant to educate our children, are actually indoctrinating them into a corrupt system established for the proliferation of war.

Yesterday, Mike Malloy (formerly of Air America radio) announced on his Nova M blog that he would be dedicating parts, if not complete shows, to talking about 9/11 starting with last night's broadcast;

Just Breathe

Deep breath. Another.

Good. Begin.

"If you are in a position to know the truth and you have a reputation for telling the truth and you do not, then maybe this will shame you into it but I suspect it won’t. I’m sorry . . .Maybe you know something I don’t. Maybe you can help me to understand because I don’t understand. I see lies and I see murder most foul. If you support these lies then your hands have blood on them."

After reading this and - over the years since 9/11/2001 - dozens and dozens of articles regarding the events of that day and the subsequent examinations of all the available evidence, I have come to an understanding. This clear understanding will influence my political thinking, and the way I see the people who were in charge of my country on that day, until the day I die.

(On March 28, WhatReallyHappened.com posted a photograph of the front page of The Honolulu Advertiser, November 30, 1941. At the very top of the page is the headline: "Japanese May Strike Over Weekend!". The only reason that the headline exists is due to the effort of one Joseph Leib, who told his story in the January, 1984 Hustler magazine. Thanks to Larry Flynt Publications, 911blogger.com has permission to share the text from this piece of hidden history. Hustler has been quite friendly to 9/11 skeptics, and continues to be so. Bearing in mind that Hustler is a magazine that contains erotic imagery for adults, visit Hustler Magazine.com to see what is in the latest issue, including journalistic content from Thom Hartmann and Larisa Alexandrovna. -rep.)

Unedited story, including original Hustler editorial lead-in begins;

EXPLOSIVE TRUTH ABOUT PEARL HARBOR: THE STORY THE REST OF THE MEDIA WON'T TELL

REPORT BY JOSEPH LEIB

What you're about to read will amaze and astound you. More than 40 years after Japan's cowardly sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, HUSTLER has uncovered unquestionable factual evidence that President Franklin Delano Roosevelt knew almost to the hour when the Japanese assault would begin - and deliberately did nothing to prevent it. In fact, he had been working on his celebrated "Date Which Will Live in Infamy" speech several days before swarms of Jap bombers and fighter planes demolished the U.S. fleet and killed in excess of 2,400 American citizens. Now, for the first time, HUSTLER reveals the incredibly sordid story of how our 32nd President sold his country down the river.

There was an eerie calm over Hawaii that morning. Perhaps it was a silent warning of what was to come. On every prior Sunday, for nearly two months, U.S. Navy carrier-based fliers posing as enemy aviators had conducted mock bombing raids while Army antiaircraft batteries directed simulated fire in defense of the island. Just a week earlier the sky over Oahu has resembled a three-ring circus as Navy planes circled, dove and buzzed the decks of the mighty Pacific Fleet's warships lying in anchor at Pearl Harbor.

But Sunday, December 7, 1941, was different. With just a few exceptions nearly all the Navy's and the Army's aircraft were on the ground. No army gunners were ready at their posts. Not a single Navy reconnaissance plane was in the air. Instead, the fighters, bombers, patrol planes, transports and trainers were carefully lined up on runway aprons - wing to wing, tip to tip, in perfect target position.

9/11 - related and not so much. What's happening in your neck of the woods? News you want to share, etc...

Engage.

EDIT: The next WOT project will be more interative than this blog entry suggests. Please go and make your voice heard at the new WOT forum: http://weekoftruth.org/forum/index.php

(One last kick for ideas...)

This blog entry and ensuing thread is to gather ideas and tactics for the next Week of Truth project.

Where should we focus our energy next?

Please propose an event(s) or product to target, and let's try to work from the ground up this time. Then, I can present a united package from 911blogger.com users, to the coordinators of the Week of Truth.

Amnesty ad condemns waterboarding

Amnesty International is launching a new ad featuring a hard-hitting torture scene showing simulated "waterboarding" in a campaign to outlaw the controversial interrogation practice.

CIA Acknowledges it Has More Than 7000 Documents Relating to Secret Detention Program, Rendition, and Torture

(This case study has been cited many times on the internet, but I was unable to find a copy for reference purposes. Here is the basic study, minus the two appendices which take up over half of the report. In short, this study supports the conclusions of Brigadier Gen. Benton K. Partin (Ret.) who submitted his report to Congress in the summer of 1995, where it fell upon deaf ears. Researchers interested in seeing the complete report with the appendices, should order a copy from American Opinion Book Services, by calling 1-800-527-8721 and asking for Carol Summers. The PDF is $25. Caveat: AOBS is owned by the John Birch Society.)
