Asbestos Dangers



Mesothelioma is a dreaded cancer that is nearly always caused by just one factor: asbestos exposure.

FACT: Family members of those who are regularly exposed to high levels of asbestos also have a high risk of developing malignant mesothelioma.

BBC Hit Piece a Tissue of Lies, Bias and Emotional Manipulation - prisonplanet.com

Outraged truth community demands answers from Guy Smith, immediate retractions and apologies urged, savage agenda driven yellow journalism an insult to the truth

The BBC's Conspiracy Files documentary about 9/11 was a tissue of lies, bias and emotional manipulation from beginning to end. Producer Guy Smith should be ashamed of himself for inflicting this travesty of yellow journalism upon the 9/11 truth movement and he is assured to encounter a vociferous and outraged response in its aftermath.

Separated into two categories below are a number of questions intended to highlight Guy Smith's production for what it was - a deliberate hit piece on the 9/11 truth movement structured around fallacy, lying by omission and overwhelming bias. We invite Mr. Smith to respond to these questions and the hundreds of others that are already being asked by furious and informed community of people who were made sick to their stomachs by Smith's yellow journalism hatchet job.

GROSS FACTUAL INACCURACIES AND YELLOW JOURNALISM

1) Why did the BBC use a thoroughly debunked graphic animation from PBS' Nova show to illustrate the collapse of the twin towers? This graphic portrays the tower collapsing at a rate of ten floors every six seconds. For this to be accurate, the tower's 110 floors would have taken 66 seconds to completely collapse. In reality, the towers collapsed in just 14-16 seconds at the extreme end of the estimation. The graphic also erroneously depicts the floors collapsing without resistance, which could not have happened if the building's collapse came as a result of fire damage alone. Furthermore, the thoroughly debunked "pancake theory" holds that the core column remained upright and static as the animation shows when in reality the entirety of the towers, including the concrete support structures, were pulverized into small pieces and dust. A video explanation of the erroneous Nova animation is included below. Does producer Guy Smith consider using an animation that portrays a tower collapsing in 66 seconds an accurate reflection of how the twin towers collapsed? Will producer Guy Smith retract this error before his show is aired again? Will the BBC announce a retraction of this error as is common practice for proven factual inaccuracies carried in BBC programming?

BBC Thrashes 9/11 Truth; Make a complaint

Let's not let them do this and just walk away.

MAKE A COMPLAINT (BE POLITE)

Tnx for the links.

I mailed this little complaint to Helen, Guy and Mike.

"The BBC2 documentary about the 9/11 truth movement was very disapointing.
Aren't the BBC supposed to be objective and go by the facts?
Instead we saw a common hit piece filled with emotional arguments. Constantly using the term conspiracy in a derogatory way.
So what about the official story about the 19 Muslim hijackers?
Is that not a conspiracy theory? Of course it is.
Coming from a regime shrouded in secrecy and with a proven record of lying.

I did not expect the BBC to lend it self to such garbage."

Complaint filed

Mr Smith
Your “investigation” into the events of 911 and associated “conspiracies” was a sham, a disgrace and an embarrassment to the BBC. Its biased, emotive and shocking lack of balance is just what one expects from so-called “independent” mainstream media, whose repetition of Government propaganda is seemingly acceptable as “investigative journalism”.
Your subsequent claims to have followed the “evidence” are laughable. Here is just a small sample of the “evidence” you omitted to consider or discuss:-
Prior Events and Government
• Northwoods document – prior planning of “terrorist events against US people”
• PNAC call for a “New Pearl Harbor” prior to 911 to justify “war on terror”
• 911 military exercises. Who could and did organise those? Why were aircraft removed specifically from around the DC and NY areas.
• NORAD lack of response. Faultless scrambles occurred 67 times in the previous 12 months, but failed all 4 times on 911.
• Until June 2001, everything worked fine, then Rumsfeld changed the pre-existing successful rules which controlled the use of fighters against hijacked jets. Why change what wasn’t broken? Why insist that HE personally be required to approve any attacks.
• Why were fighters scrambled from Langley, Virginia, 100 miles away to “protect” the pentagon, rather than from Andrews, 11 miles away? Why from Otis, Massachusetts, so far away from NY when there were others just down the road?
• Why were the “hijackers” not listed on passenger manifests?
• Why were NONE of the video cameras in the departure airports working?
• FAA / NORAD tapes of air traffic control were (illegally) systematically destroyed afterwards, including taped depositions made by controllers within hours of the “attacks”. Why and by whom? At whose orders?
WTC 1 & 2
• Why were basement explosion fires and explosions not reported or investigated?
• The seismic record shows multiple explosions and 10-second collapse,
• Bush is on tape admitting watching the first “attack”, which was not live on public TV.
• Bush did not react either to the news of the first “attack” or the second. This has never been addressed by either the White House or the media.
• Explosions were reported before, during and after the collapses below and above ground level. These were not investigated or reported.
• Firemen reported that the fires were almost out before the collapses happened, not raging infernos that would melt steel.
• Steel cannot be melted by burning aviation fuel. Molten steel was seen pouring from the building and in the basement months later. This was not addressed or investigated.
• The controlled demolitions of WTC 1 & 2
o Explosions at both ground level and below the collapse line
o Both towers fell at freefall speed. That makes the “pancake theory” impossible.
o Both towers fell straight down and did not topple over as they would have done in a “collapse”
o Steel girders were ejected at high speed from both towers during collapse. This is impossible if this was a “collapse”
o Molten steel in the basements and falling from the buildings. Thermite-like clouds of white smoke were seen rising from the bottom of the buildings before and during collapse. This was not even mentioned.
o Photo and video of steel girders, cut at 45 degree angles (indicating thermite demolition) are available. These were not mentioned.
• NO steel-framed building has even collapsed from fire, despite much more intense, hot and long-lasting fires than either tower 1, 2 or 7. 3 fell, in what appeared to be controlled demolitions on the same day on 9/11, yet no comparisons were attempted.
• The “Dancing Israelis” were not mentioned and have never been dealt with by the mainstream media, even though some have since been revealed as Mossad agents!
• No steel and titamium engine parts, heavy landing gear parts or fire-hardened CVRs or FDRs have been recovered (officially), but paper passports survived, conveniently identifying “hijackers”. This is not credible.
• Rescue and clean-up workers reported recovering several of the FDRs and CVRs, but this is still denied by the FBI.
• Up to 10 of the hijackers, including 3 from “flight 11” have been identified as still being alive. They are still listed on the official list of “hijackers” that appeared within hours of the “attacks”. This shows the official story is patently false.
• Much of the steel etc from the site was illegally destroyed and shipped overseas without any forensic investigation. This one fact proved a high-level conspiracy of monstrous proportions. Other evidence was destroyed, covered up and denied, all illegally by official sources and continues to be so denied, despite proof to the contrary.
• The issue of share profiteering has never been addressed by the media and was ignored.
• Billions of dollars worth of Gold held in and below both towers was missing. Gold does not burn, evaporate or compress. Where did it go. A few hundred millions worth was recovered for show.
• Both buildings were leased and double-insured weeks before the event, although they were half-empty and haemorrhaging money. This is incredibly suspicious. The lessee in on tape admitting the demolition of building 7.
• It would have been illegal to demolish the buildings in the manner they came down, due to the content of asbestos and other toxins. Coneviently, the massive cost this would have entailed was avoided.
Pentagon
• The trajectory of the “plane” that hit the pentagon was outside the flight envelope of a B757.
• It was also outside the abilities of the “terrible pilot” who was claimed to have flown the “plane”.
• No significant aircraft pieces were visible immediately after the incident.
• There were no marks on the ground immediately afterwards, where we are told the 757 bounced.
• The hole in the building is not consistent with a 757 hitting the building (as reported).
• The explanation of the fuel doing the damage does not add up. If the wings didn’t penetrate (see the photos immediately afterwards), how would this fuel get into the building?
• Cheney is reported to have been warned several times about the incoming aircraft and to have prevented its interception. Why and why has it not been investigated?
• Numerous people reported seeing a small jet / missile and not a 757. This was not addressed.
• The engine parts found and displayed were not consistent with a 757.
• The FBI confiscated video tapes from surrounding buildings immediately afterwards. Why was this? Why have they (in the majority) never been released? Why only one time-laps series of (doctored) images from one pentagon camera?
• Why were frames missing from the images?
• The “plane” conveniently hit the side of the building that had been recently fortified, on the opposite side of the building from Rumsfelds office.
• Are we expected to believe there is no missile defence system on the Pentagon?
• Immediately after the event, wooden desks and paper files can be seen undamaged at the edges of the affected area. This is not consistent with a major fuel explosion which you describe.
• CVR/FDR tapes have never been released (although you showed an image of one!). It is claimed they were, at least partially, destroyed. This is virtually unheard of. (especially from 4 aircraft)
• A further “hijacker” from flight 77 has been found alive and well!
• In the days before the “attacks” the pentagon was found to have “lost” trillions of dollars it could not account for. This was conveniently forgotten after the “attacks”
• We are expected to believe that the whole “plane” evaporated, yet the FBI claims to have identified almost all the passengers and others. This is not credible.
Shanksville
• No significant aircraft wreckage was detectable immediately after the event or thereafter. This is unprecedented (except from the pentagon!).
• No bodies were found. Or luggage. Or seats. Or landing gear. Or engines. Or FDRs/CVRs etc.
• The cellphone calls reported to have been made were impossible – it cannot be done.
• The calls were also improbable and reek of being faked. No-one uses their full name when calling their mother!
• Many eye-witnesses reported seeing a military aircraft in the vicinity immediately before the “crash”, identified by many as an A-10 attack aircraft.
• The extent of burning around the site is inconsistent with the reported fire. (Until the next day, when it miraculously increased).
• Yet another hijacker on this “flight” has since been found alive and well. He is still listed as an official “hijacker”.
WTC 7
• As reported, no aircraft hit WTC7.
• The fires in the building were not significant and scattered.
• ATF agents had reportedly been told not to come to work. They didn’t!
• FDNY are on video telling people to get back before the building is demolished.
• BBC reported the building collapse 20 minutes before it did!
• Silverstein is on tape reporting that they decided to “pull it”, slang for controlled demolition.
• The building did not collapse, it fell neatly into its own footprint, a controlled demolition.
• Again, there are many signs of thermite usage.
• Again, the evidence was illegally destroyed before any forensic examination could take place.
• The building was quickly rebuilt in a few months the following year. Did the plans just happen to exist beforehand or are US architects really that good?
Others
• The 911 commission has been exposed in many arenas as a fraud, cover up and has been proven to contain lies and inconsistencies.
• When no-one else could fly (and only just after commercial flights could do so) numerous Saudis left on a chartered flight. This shows corruption and complicity at the highest levels.
• All news organisations immediately reported the same theories instantly. No-one departed from the scripts prepared and supplied to them.
• Within hours, if not minutes, Bin-Laden and the CIA-front “Al-Quaida” were being blamed. This is simply not believable. (especially when the family were later allowed to leave before anyone else and without any investigation)
• The plan to invade Iraq was already approved and awaiting its “catalyst”.

I second a heavy weight loaded

The postman and the post office at the BBC should at least know what's all about. Maybe all of us can write such a letter and maybe even on the outside the reason for the complain, to make it more "visible"

Complain about BBC2 "documentary" The Conspiracy Files / Guy Smith

in big letters?

Amazing

The comments on the story you asked to bury.

It amazes me the amount of people who keep regurgitating half truths.... and have really no concept of anything material. They try to explain Building 7... It really is sad.

I have often wondered why our stories do not get the recognition needed on Digg.... because they are going up against a 70% group of ignorance. They are burying our stories while we let their side soar with no resistance.

They absolutely will not listen to reason.... hell they are still speaking about pancaking floors.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/newswatch/ukfs/hi/default.stm

Do not try to bury anything!!!!

Let the lies stand next to the truth and the truth will out. Freedom of speech and all that stuff. Two wrongs don't make a right.

I'm Back!

Well hello...

I used to be the id "theonlineballot" but I made a new email for my commitment to becoming an activist today, instead of just a lurker, and like a dummy I made a new ID, only to realize I could have just changed the email in the old one! Oh well, so I have proved myself as dense. :)

For those that remember, I was the advertiser here that "came out of the closet" and admitted I was a "Bush Sheep" that bleated whenever "W" told me to, and I did keep my promise, and advertised again to help the cause here.

But what I didn't do was take action, so today I am finally taking action. Not only am I going to comment on on the blogs I "lurked" at, but I am actually going to blog about 9/11 on my weblog.

I must admit I am scared of what my "peers" might think. It was safe admitting I was wrong here, but to do it on my own weblog was something new.

I don't want to be called a "lunatic", like I called all of the 911 folks. (But maybe I have it coming for my persecution of them for so long) I just want to get the real answers instead of Karl Rove's "Pre-Prepared " list of blowoff quips for the public digestion. No matter what the answers might be, I want them, whether they hurt or not.

As to the BBC... Why are they even involved in promoting the same B.S. that has been spat out allready, and debunked? I thought they were our "Mother Country" and supposed to be invested in what is for the best of their former colony?

Again, I guess what I was told to believe is again wrong. And sadly enough, I am rather saddened that the BBC would even desert us by just staying on the side of an administration here in the USA that has turned its back on the voters that put them in office.

My next question is: "How can I get involved?"

I don't want to resort to "Partisan name calling" because that was the exact reason I finally left the GOP bandwagon!

And as just a newbie, I don't want to get in over my head, when I don't have the expertise to go head to head with my former "Soldiers Of God".

Is there anything simple I can start with? I read the links given to me the first time I commented, so what now?

Sorry to post this sorta "off-topic" comment here, but it seemed like the only place that I might get a few suggestions. :)

Welcome to reality my friend.

Ain't it a bitch? LOL

My advice. Researching government counter intelligence (COINTELPRO) techniques, 'disinfo', is high priority. Perfect example of this among us is Jim Fetzer & the "Space Beams", & Rick Siegel & the 'Hologram' crew. There are more cunning agents than these, trust me.

Other than that, do your homework, & try to bring this info to as many others as you can. There are many great sites linked here (on the left side of the page). Here are some links to excellent videos to get you started.

Thank You Very Much...

I will get on those videos right now.

Good list...

...but, you have to add "Terrorstorm" or Tarpley's "Synthetic Terror" book to expose the concept and documented history of state-sponsored terror to justify national military aggression.....

And, of course, to "break that tactic in front of their faces..."

Guy Smith on Alex Jones

Guy Smith on Alex Jones right now with Avery.

Jones is Tearing This Lymie Up.

This smug propagandist is flailing.

Guy Smith's pathetic.

So is his argument, he's done zero research, or he's playing real dumb.

This Shill isn't fooling me one bit. His 'documentary' was a joke & he can't defend it. I laughed out loud at them selling limited hangout in the end of his propaganda piece.

No mention of bombs/explosions

Paul Joseph Watson brought up this really good, obvious, point about the documentary: there was absolutely no mention of any firefighters or anyone else talking about explosions or bombs in any of the buildings. None.

It's such a glaring omission that there is absolutely no way that the documentary was objective. That's on top of the more subtle biases shown in other ways.

EDIT: I just found this article by Andrew Lowe Watson detailing some of the omissions mentioned on the AJS:

http://www.prisonplanet.com/articles/february2007/190207whitewash.htm

passenger mannifest

From Debunking the BBC's 9-11 Conspiracy Files:
"It is interesting to note which points are missing from the BBC's analysis of the alternative 9-11 investigations.

Some of these include the passenger lists which do not include the 19 Arabs named as responsible"

I keep hearing this over and over again but I know I saw the photocopied passenger lists presented in the Zacharias Musawi trial. These lists contained all of the hijackers as far as I know. I can't find copies anymore; does anyone have a link to these lists or remember seeing them?

Thanks!

Are these the lists for which you are looking?

Oh, hey!

Thanks, Eye. See? These lists do have the names.
Great find.

Thank you!

Thank you EyeOnThe911Ball, those trial exhibits were exactly what i was looking for =)

Manifest Hijacker Omission

...is a completely misguided point. It's all based on a list posted on the internet soon after Time Zero, and invoked by DRG repeatedly. It was designated as a list of "victims," so it was perfectly natural to omit the alleged hijackers. If you counted the names on the victims lists, the names numbered five fewer (four fewer for 93) than the total passenger loads released by the airlines.
The official manifests have never been released by the Federal Bureau of Intimidation, just as nothing else has.

It remains in doubt

how did they knew immediately who the hijackers were?

Arab names? Maybe the ones long known as intelligence operatives from Saudi Arabia?

I mean come on, there were other "outlandish" sounding passenger names as well.

Alex is eviscerating this

Alex is eviscerating this weasel Smith. He also implied that he will be putting together a debunking video of the BBC doc.

The Eleventh Day of Every Month

He couldn't answer anything

It was just incredible how he couldn't answer any concrete question. He didn't even try to refute any of the evidence Alex, Dylan and Paul brought up. It was just his standard answer every time "yeah, that's right, but if you look at the broad picture I just don't see any evidence of an inside job."

I really like the idea of making a video to debunk the BBC's debunking. If it was done right it could be a very powerful tool against these debunking techniques that just keep repeating again and again.

He couldn't refute anything

It literally made my stomach turn to listen to Guy Smith. He sounds like a scripted robot repeating his sycophant punch-line: "I couldn't see any evidence of a inside job" to each bit of evidence proving the contrary. I mean how can these people call themselves journalists!?

And his feigned, yet loaded comments like "It's great that we are discussing these ‘conspiracy theories’ " and "watch my doc and make up your own mind". Ok so why include the completely ridiculous theories like the forewarning of 4000 jews, the C-130 story or the family guilt material. Make up your own mind??! More like "Watch my disinformation propaganda piece and let me mould your mind"...

It's just sick. But really, what else could we expect. I mean would the BBC really put out a balanced 9/11 doc. If it did, it would signal the end of the US administration, and eventually the UK government itself. At least now with have clear confirmation of the BBC’s journalistic value.

No, change won't come from the top, it will come from the bottom, as it always has.

A debunking video of this show will be candy to the eyes though. Such a blatant Orwellian piece will go down in history. Guy Smith, you can be proud of yourself. Your position in the annals of the Ministry of Truth is truly assured.
