Blatant 'Hit Piece' in Vancouver Lefty newspaper asks 'What if the 9/11 Truth Movement is wrong?"

My comment:

Investigate 9/11 and we will find out who is right. If the 9/11 Truth Movement is right or wrong is unimportant. We just want to have our legitimate questions answered and to be wrong would be a relief.

The point is, the evidence indicates a cover up and a full, fair open and independent investigation is warranted, and as of yet there has not been one!

If the 9/11 Truth Movement is wrong, that would be wonderful. Lord knows we all have many other things we would rather be doing. Just prove us wrong and prove that the official narrative is correct, so we can all get back to our blissful lives in a loving police state, or at very least, investigating why Britney shaved her head and other such incredibly important social issues, just to keep our "conspiracy theory" addictions satisfied.

Weak article... here's why,

The author touches briefly on WTC 7, but does not delve deeply enough for his argument to have any real merit. In fact, it's not even his argument, rather he points to a November 2006 Counterpunch article by Manuel Garcia entitled The Fall of WTC 7. Nenonen reports that Garcia concluded that “The blast of hot debris from WTC 1 kindled fires in WTC 7 and caused an emergency power system to feed the burning to the point of building collapse. One of the building’s major bridging supports was heated to the point of exhaustion by the burning of an abundant store of hydrocarbon fuel.” Garcia compared the overall effect to that of an oil well fire beneath a burning bridge.

While offering this "conclusion" as strong proof, Nenonen fails to acknowledge that Mr. Garcia himself admits that his hypothesis is nothing more than an educated guess. Specifically, Mr. Garcia said, "This article is a visualization of what PROBABLY HAPPENED. Only gods and the dead have certainty; we, the living, have rationality and courage to guide us through the puzzles and the perils of life."

But that is not at all accurate. At least one news organization reported with great "certainty" that WTC 7 had indeed "collapsed". Curiously, this report occurred 23 minutes before WTC 7 had actually "collapsed". Even more curious, is the fact that the report was broadcast live on the BBC, as the building in question, "WTC 7" actually remained standing in the background, while the reporter was explaining how it had already "collapsed".

Michael Nenonen fails to mention the HUGE revelation of BBC foreknowledge of the "collapse" of WTC 7 and what that means to the "9/11 Truth Movement"; much less what it means to his article. Clearly, the very fact that the BBC could make such a revelation virtually eviscerates the hypothesis put forth by Garcia and the entire premise put forth by Mr. Nenonen.

The BBC has gone on record explaining their clairvoyant report as nothing more than an "error". In other words, it was a wild coincidence that their report practically coincided with the sudden and complete demolition of WTC 7. While BBC's report does little to explain exactly how WTC 7 actually did "collapse", it does provide very powerful circumstantial evidence that the 9/11 Truth Movement is NOT wrong. In fact, the BBC's report provides convincing corroborating evidence that the 9/11 Truth Movement has it exactly right! Allow me to explain why...

In addition to providing powerful circumstantial evidence, the BBC foreknowledge report, when considered together with the direct visual evidence of WTC7 actually being demolished, infers that a conspiracy was concocted to destroy building 7 while simultaneously using the media to make it seem as if the building collapsed of its own accord.

The fact that this would occur directly following the demolition of the two 110 storey World Trade Center Towers is further corroborating evidence that 9/11 was an Inside Job.

The story devised to cover the WTC 7 demolition was absurd on its face, thus another conspiracy was concocted after the fact, to bury the live televised news reports because they clearly contradicted not only the visual evidence of WTC 7 being blown up, but the fact that the reports went "live" too soon, also succeeded in completely destroying the time line of events necessary for their story to "hold up" under careful scrutiny.

Of course this careful scrutiny never occurred. The story has since been absolutely censored by the mainstream media and the government at large. So great was the conspiracy to cover-up the demolition of WTC 7, that it was not even mentioned in the official 9/11 Commission Report.

What's so ironic about all of this is, many people point to the Bush Administration's incompetence as "proof" that they were unable to pull off 9/11 as an "Inside Job". It would seem that they were essentially right. Their ineptitude resulted in the smoking gun which is WTC7; thus, they have effectively failed in their attempt to pull this off!

When all the facts are considered together with available direct and circumstantial evidence, it becomes clear that 9/11 was an Inside Job. It can no longer be denied. The only question remaining is, what are we the people going to do about it?

Counter Punch link has gone

The icon linking to the Popular Mechanics special report seems to have disappeared from Counter Punch.

I'm not even going to get into it

Guys who write hit pieces like this have no spine. Where's the comments section so that we can point out the many flaws in Michael Nenonen's reasoning? As usual, it's a one-way street.

Mockingbird singing

Looks like the perps are pressuring the gatekeepers to try and discourage their followers from examining the evidence. A whole string of these weak, uninformed and pompous hit pieces have been coming out over the past few weeks. Could the upcoming theatrical release of Loose Change Final Cut have anything to do with it?

Definitely

The can see the storm in the distance.

False Dichotomy

There is nothing "right" or "wrong" about demanding accountability from our government.

There is nothing "right" or "wrong" about demanding an investigation into the lies and coverups we have been fed.

Again - those who seek to sink this movement will
continually and persisently frame this debate by refering to us as "conspiracy theorist" - and then seek to debunk some of our weakest theories. And - it is for this reason that some of our WEAKEST theories come from those who seek to sink us.

It is for this reason that you will PERSISTENTLY see our critics aiming their big guns at 'certain' theories (that shall remain nameless - while AVOIDING films like Press for the Truth and the Jersey Widow's press conferences.

There is nothing to DEBUNK about the Jersey gils. There is nothing "right" or "wrong" about the Jersey widows. They are simply asking for compassion and truth. Truly dangerous to the ruling elite.

How about for once asking:

What if the 9/11 Truth Movement is RIGHT?

Please don't waste your time with all these tired hit-pieces.

reply to the article

Dear Mr. Potvin,

I had never heard of your publication before until Nenonen's recent article on 9/11 was linked to on 911blogger.com. I'm sorry that that had to be my introduction since generally this is the type of site that I would expect to agree with more often than not. The article by Nenonen is so far off the mark with regard to the facts surrounding 9/11 that it is clear to those of us who base our understanding of the issue not just on solid backgrounds in science but on years of research into what happened that day that Nenonen is quite deliberately presenting a misleading picture of the controversy. You should be aware that the growing movement calling for a new investigation takes great interest in identifying these "hit pieces" for future referral to investigators mandated with getting to the bottom not just of the crimes committed on 9/11 but also any and all deliberate efforts to misinform Americans with regard to the events--the cover-up in other words. When the day comes, it will not be enough to say that one was misled or mistaken into actively supporting this conspiracy to obstruct justice. I hope you will consider publishing subsequent articles covering the issue in a more objective and balanced manner.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
