I'd suggest it's high time for us to give something back to Mr. Fujita. He stood up for the cause in his senior position, he informed his peers and he pushed the japanese gov. (when he was in opposition) during now famous televised parliamentary interpelations on the 9/11 evidence. His efforts seemed to be always more about the truth and evidence than cheap political gestures.

This is clearly a lame attempt by WP (and Langley hairbrainers) to put some presure on Fujita's political party and peers at home via nominally "respected" D.C. publication. We should help diffuse it by any creative means possible. One could be contacting journalism or ethics dept. on major universities,
showing it as textbook propaganda example, name calling, not focusing on the evidence/material presented by Fujita etc.

This recent WP hit piece is as almost stupid as any pointed editorial propaganda written in totalitarian countries of the world. We can leave it as open gate for the curious minds out there to actually use it as jump board to their own investigation. On the otherhand we can also put some pressure on the editorial board of the WP, because this is evidently beyond substandard yellow journalism performance. Yes, they might pre-filter your complaining phone calls, most of your email or snaimail complaints might go directly to a bin. But I think it's still worthy to launch a campaign against WP on this article. The buck must stop here.
Thanks

Has 9/11 Truth just bifurcated into a whole new realm of dialogue, both globally and in the USA. Seems it's suddenly everywhere all at once, the taboo subject going mainstream. What is interesting is how the more it's attacked the faster it moves, since stories on it, compell those who haven't done so already, to investigate it, and as we know, there's a fire hydrant of information out there, and it's a one way street, where people do not tend to ride the fence and once they've changed their mind, don't tend to change it back again. It must be the fastest growing social movement right now in the world. I also find it interesting that the 9/11 Truth Movement actually gave birth to that Tea Party Movement we've been hearing so much about. We started that, when we and a bunch of Ron Paul supporters went to the Boston harbor and dumped 9/11 Commission Reports into the water.

Good work everyone. Keep it up, we're making headway, big time - and so history, looking back, will begin to get this thing straightened out, for the sake of learning, truth, and justice.

The Japanese are honourable people and the current government was elected by the population because it was a "change" to the blindly following the US predecessor and they will honour that!

Yuki's fellow politicians are educated on these matters and they have stayed out of it because of their relationship with the US and that they consider it "their" business. If the US makes it an issue Japan may just react with the truth....now this may be where it gets very interesting indeed.

Please support Fujita with comments and words of support as he is a very brave and honourable man.

Kind regards John

kinda rambling, but...got in a lot of points. The physics of controlled demo are already very well represented early in the comments. The cool thing is, its like 13 pages of comments, but newer ones are first.

We are going to win this thing! A brand new world is possible.

"Mr. Fujita's ideas about the attack on the World Trade Center, which he shared with us in a recent interview, are too bizarre, half-baked and intellectually bogus to merit serious discussion."

it's a play right out of Gore's playbook ....the science is in..there is no debate... blah blah blah

we need to hop on our boards and ride this media wave as long as we can...

I got the local 50,000watt station to interview Gage later this week... it's taken me 8 years to get them to bite on 9/11 truth... times are changin'

Funny how 9/11 truth is popping up here and there in the mainstream media, and in foreign press.
What is very suspicious is how the Alternative media is avoiding like the plague.
The worst offenders? Alternet, DemocracyNow, the Nation, CommonDreams, antiwar.com, Counterpunch.
Most of these not only have avoided mention of 9/11 truth, but when pressed, they insult people who are in the movement.

The Alternative press is supposed to step in and make known the real facts when the msm, controlled by powerful forces, keep those facts from the American people.

Why the treason against us?
Check out who supports these sites. It is hard. I've gone into some of the support for Alternet, just as an example. Foundations. Foundations which if you follow some threads lead to the same big powerful elites that control msm...................huge corporations, big international financial groups, the Israel lobby, etc etc.
Dump alternative media. We've got to find a media site that is not controlled by these same powerful groups.

Just sent this to Fujita: info@y-fujita.com - found the email on http://www2.y-fujita.com/cgi-bin/index.php (translation available from translate.google.com or worldwidelexicon.org)

Greetings Mr. Fujita,

I'm writing to praise you for acting on the courage of your convictions in raising questions about the official narrative of the 9/11 attacks, and to let you know that the Washington Post recently insulted and libeled you in an editorial:

A leading Japanese politician espouses a 9/11 fantasy
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/03/07/AR201003...

In the headline, your questions are referred to as "a 9/11 fantasy."

And in the body of the editorial:

"Mr. Fujita's ideas about the attack on the World Trade Center, which he shared with us in a recent interview, are too bizarre, half-baked and intellectually bogus to merit serious discussion."

"Mr. Fujita ... a man so susceptible to the imaginings of the lunatic fringe"

And the last paragraph, in addition to further insulting and libeling you, is obviously intended to send a message from the U.S. establishment to Mr. Hatoyama that he should get rid of you if he hopes to preserve close relations with the U.S.; "That relationship, and its benefits for the region, will be severely tested if Mr. Hatoyama tolerates elements of his own party as reckless and fact-averse as Mr. Fujita."

It is already a disgrace that the Washington Post has failed to conduct any serious investigation of the 9/11 events (even as they've reported many of the facts that contradict the official 9/11 narrative), and failed to call anyone to account for the failure to defend the U.S. and the failure of the 9/11 Commission to conduct a proper investigation, but now they have insulted and libeled you for calling attention to the contradictions between the 9/11 story and the public record.

I hope you will pursue legal action against the Washington Post for libeling you; in addition to receiving an apology and redress for the damage done to your reputation (and possibly your career), the Establishment media will learn a lesson about attacking those who are seeking truth and justice. Furthermore, it will attract international attention to the urgent need for a full investigation into 9/11, before that day is used again to justify war and the subversion of human rights and the public interest.

At a minimum, I trust you will demand that the Washington Post publish your written response to their charges. They have not yet published their interview with you, and readers have no idea what it is you actually said to the Washington Post.

Sincerely,

Erik Larson

PS If you are not yet familiar with it, I highly recommend:
The Complete 9/11 Timeline
http://www.historycommons.org/project.jsp?project=911_project

PPS, it is not mentioned in the editorial that you said anything to the Washington Post questioning the lack of evidence that AA 77 hit the Pentagon, but you've done so in the past. Please be advised that there are many eyewitnesses to an AA 757 hitting the Pentagon, 757 parts were seen and photographed both inside and outside the Pentagon, passenger DNA and personal effects were reportedly recovered from the Pentagon, there's a 90' gash in the base of the Pentagon with a fuselage-sized hole in the center, and the damage path inside and outside the Pentagon matches what might be expected of a 757 crash.

Certainly, the U.S. government should release all documents, photos and video proving it was AA 77. However, it may be this information is being suppressed in order to fuel the controversy over 'what' hit, and distract from larger questions- such as why there was no air defense of D.C. after a 'summer of threat' that included warnings of a plot involving hijacked planes to attack U.S. cities, and more than half an hour after both WTC towers had been hit.

Here are links for more info on the Pentagon, from sites that present credible evidence and questions regarding 9/11:

Some years ago, when I was waking up to this lie called 9/11, I was exchanging mails with a US military personnel.

He was very polite and all that but he never accepted any allegation I had found on 9/11.

And yet, one day he wrote to me in a mail and said,

"Even though we do not share the same view at all, I am ready to risk my life to protect your right to claim what you claim. That's democracy."

I was deeply moved with this comment of his.
I thought to myself, that's another reason why I like Americans! even though I was somewhat frustrated the way he trusted his country=Government et al and didn't listen to me and yet that's sort of understandable because I didn't know even 1/10th of what I know now.

Anyhow, back to this WP's article.

The paper is no doubt, one of the leading media in the U.S.A., the country of democracy where you are supposed to enjoy the freedom of speech.

And yet, it printed this ugly attack on a politician who is holding an important post in his country without examining any fact at all in order to deny his allegation.

Is this democracy?
Is WP American?

Not of genuine Americans I should say.

First they ignore you, then they fight you...

Can anyone doubt that now the fight is on for real? A sobering moment. The political system of the USA (and, by default, my country, Australia, because of our support for the bogus war on terror) is now hanging in the balance. What may happen first though, is a quick pull-back from this apparent attempt to test the waters of public opinion by publication of this biased article which may even hope to capitalize on anti-Japanese sentiment or racism. But it will not work. It is too late. The 911Truth genie is out of the bottle.

So as I see it there only a few ways they can go now. 1) Implement martial law, declare 911 truth to be traitorious 2) Continue the fight, using more and more desperate measures, but short of implementing extreme measures like martial law. 3) Another big false flag which can be blamed directly on 911truthers, instead of the mini false flags we've been seeing.

Think how much is at stake. We all know and realise just about everything we know and are familiar with will be affected. I believe that it is one of the reasons my country is trying to introduce an internet filter. So far, option two has been their way. But they will be starting to realise it isn't working. Option three looms larger. So let us be ready. If there's another big false flag, we must be ready to expose it far and wide.

But let us not fear option one. Personally I think such a move will fail. Carry on the fight everyone!! We are obviously winning now.

As mentioned before comments at the WAPOrware article are good, but somewhat more direct and personal heat is needed as well, what about phone calls to their office..

The Washington Times exhibits some real journalistic attitude in this important issue:

"Explosive News"
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2010/feb/22/inside-the-beltway-70128...

And the entire February 2010 issue of the highly respected journal "American Behavioral Scientist" is devoted to State Crimes Against Democracy, with September 11, 2001 in focus:

http://www.opednews.com/articles/Entire-February-2010-Issue-by-Elizabeth...

Other peer-reviewed articles:

"Environmental anomalies at the World Trade Center: evidence for energetic materials "

http://www.springerlink.com/content/f67q6272583h86n4/

"Active Thermitic Material Discovered in
Dust from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe":

http://www.bentham-open.org/pages/content.php?TOCPJ/2009/00000002/000000...

But one doesn't really need to be an academic to realize that three skyscrapers pulverizing mid-air, with material ejected horizontally at a higher speed than the building's vertical "descent", amounts to controlled demolition.

("Descent" is in quotation marks, as the top parts of the buildings themselves disintegrated and pulverized during the first few seconds and thus could not have destroyed much anything below.)

And no serious investigation into unprecedented highrise collapses would begin with the total destruction of the research material (NIST: "no steel was recovered from WTC 7"), followed by years of speculation and various theories until finally coming up with a "magic column did it" explanation. How naive can people be?

* * *

I didn't expect Washington Post to succumb to this level of yellow journalism.

There are thousands of well-known professionals, eminent academics and credible whistleblowers who do not buy the official 9/11 fantasy. Google "Patriots Question 9/11".

In a poll by a large Finnish magazine, a whopping 38 percent of the respondents responded that 9/11 was a false-flag operation. In an international poll at around the same time, less than 50 percent of the respondents thought that "Al-Qaida" was behind the operation.

There are too many reasons for me (and many of my fellow countrymen and -women) to be unable to believe the official explanation of 9/11 to mention here. They include:

- the lack of interception during the almost 2-hour hijacking drama
- the 3 different official explanations given over the years for the failure
- the fact that not a single person was ever fired for either incompetence or lying
- the anti-hijacking exercises unfolding at the same time as the real hijackings (WaPo, why haven't you covered this?)
- the anthrax attacks - framing Arabs but leading to a US military laboratory - targeting two Senators, both of whom had been trying to halt the rushing through of the voluminous Patriot Act legislation on the basis of the 9/11 attacks - as you realize, the legislation had been on the shelve waiting)
- the put options indicating foreknowledge, as confirmed by independent analysts, etc etc.

And then there is the scientific article "Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe" published in Bentham's peer-reviewed journal, and other articles in other journals. The new volume of the respected American Behavioral Scientist is dedicated to State Crimes Against Democracy (SCADs), with 9/11 and the "war on terror" it is used to legitimate in focus.

Ah, building 7. Absolutely nothing suspicious about it...?

1) The skyscraper was destroyed in a way that matches the most skilled of controlled demolitions (CDs) imaginable. Many CDs have even been botched, and I can't believe that random fires (which is the final official explanation, finally given at the end of 2008!) could accomplish what even precisely placed and timed explosives sometimes fail to do.

2) The research material (=the building's steel debris) was destroyed before investigations began. Yet we are talking about an unprecedented, massive building disaster here! Examining the rather compact debris pile would, of course, have revealed the cause and mechanism of the destruction.

3) After various hypotheses over the years and an admission in an interview in 2006 that "We don't really know" we've had trouble getting a handle on building 7", the governmental agency in charge of the investigation, NIST, somehow comes up with the precise cause of the destruction (yeah right!), triggered by a "new phenomenon", although thermal expansion has hardly been absent in other steel building fires.

4) Three months before the final report at the end of 2008, NIST said that WTC 7 could not have freefalled, as there was always material that needed to be broken, thus slowing down the collapse. Yet after numerous comments and calculations from the truth movement, in the final report they acknowledged a period of total freefall of 2.25 seconds during the collapse, meaning that there was absolutely no resistance from the 80 support columns and other building material within the space of ~8 floors, proving the partial removal of the resistance by explosives as in controlled demolitions.

I'm no engineer, but the above makes me singularly unable to take the official investigations and explanations seriously. And the over 1,100 architects and engineers of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth agree.

And the "journalists" at Washington Post can't even figure out why thinking people have *problems* with the official explanations?

Seems so-called interview WaPo refers to was on another topic and that Fujita's 9/11 comments came were 'during informal talks' (afterwards).

"Fujita, the director general of the DPJ's international department, admitted referring to the attacks 'during informal talks' with the Post following an interview that had focused on Japan's immigration policies."

'But I clearly said I have never concluded that September 11 was a dark plot and never stated that (the collapse) of the Twin Towers was a controlled demolition,' Fujita said in a statement. 'We cannot help but conclude that it's a seditious report distorting facts.' Fujita separately told AFP: 'I'm puzzled and annoyed. I'm considering how I should take action to protest against the editorial.'

The article above has the headline "Denies calling 9/11 a hoax " which at first glance seems to make Fujita out to be another Van Jones eg denying his 9/11 position. However, allowing for Japanese - English translation quirks, I just see Fujita trying to take control of his message. Fujita is like most of us, calling for a new investigation, pointing out the many problems with the official story, and while he has his convictions about these problems, he doesn't speculate or state conclusively that they did or didn't happen.

Most important of all Fujita made a presentation about these problems with the official story in Japan's parliament, and has continued to talk about the issue.
