Are the Perpetrators of 911 still the 19 Arab Hijackers? Watch These Videos for answers

If a man in the street was asked the question: "Who do you think attacked America on Sept 11?", what would be his immediate answer?
It would be : "Don't you know, it is the Arabs!". 

So, scientists, professors, former fighter pilots, aeronautical engineers, structural engineers, investigative journalists and other intellectuals have spent much time to unravel the mystery behind 911. For, not only the 911 spelled murder for Arabs and Muslims (a.k.a 'war on terror'), but the western intellectuals also recognized that 911 was the pretext the ruling elite needed to curtail the common man's freedoms and civil rights.
 
You are of course free to continue to believe what you already believe. But your curiosity may impel you to see the work of these intellectuals. Perhaps, then, you might say, I don't want to be part of this massive crime. I want my soldiers to come home and stop this "war of terror" on innocent people.

Selling War

An incisive exhibition on propaganda reveals how easily we slide into hatred of the Other

Foreign visitors to the Canadian War Museum sense something unusual about the place right from the entrance. The large, calm, shadowy space created by architect Raymond Moriyama incorporates sloping planes of walls and floors that both entice and destabilize visitors, and establish an atmosphere not of patriotic combat-readiness but of sober ambiguity. This sense grows as you move inside. True, there's much that's thrilling, from the Viking sword (the first European weapon in North America) to a limo once used by Hitler. But there's also evidence of what war does to communities, families and bodies, such as the unforgettable First World War film footage of vets, their manhood reduce by shell shock to spastic incoherence. Clifford Krauss of The New York Times, who linked the museum's peculiar approach to a Canadian distaste for militarism and our cuts to military spending, noted, "There is nothing bellicose about the exhibits and there is little, if any, glorification of battles or generals." Instead, this war museum is about conflict, destruction and the possibility of understanding.

Deranged, Disconnected, and Dangerous

Not since Abraham Lincoln have American civil liberties been so threatened as by the Bush regime. America even has an Attorney General, a Vice President, and a Secretary of Defense who believe in torture. How do they differ from officials in the Third Reich or Stalin’s KGB? Anyone who believes in torture is not an American. Continued

Within 24 months, we're going to have to withdraw from Iraq, whether the situation there, politically, economically and so forth, is adequate or not because we've stretched our ground forces to the point of breaking. We have officers who are leaving the Army and the Marine Corps now because they don't want to do a third and possibly a fourth tour in Afghanistan or Iraq. Continued

The Power of Saying No

As the new Hamas government is sworn into power in the Palestinian Authority, we might ask: What would bring a people, the most secular of Arab populations with little history of religious fundamentalism, to vote Hamas? Mere protest at Fatah ineffectualness in negotiations and internal corruption doesn't go far enough. While warning Hamas that their vote did not constitute a mandate for imposing an Iran-like theocracy on Palestine, the Palestinians took the only option left to a powerless people when all other avenues of redress have been closed to them: non-cooperation.

CANADA IN CONTEMPT OF INTERNATIONAL LAW AT SIX NATIONS

Mohawk Nation News - March 20, 2006. Canada gives international law the finger. “Screw you”, says Canada. Ontario Superior Court Judge David Marshall, said, “I know you poor people have been victimized for so long. I understand how you feel”, he cooed in a patronizing tone. Marshall said the last thing he wanted to do was to send protesters to jail or give them criminal records for their beliefs. Someone suggested he step down because he has land in the disputed area. He ignored the request and slapped the protesters with a court injunction.
