Personally, I say, “Hallelujah!!Thank you God, for having someone with a following that has access to people’s ears that still has a conscience and is not too afraid to use his voice to out some truth!”
Okay, now back to the new novel, “The Shell Game,” and NY Times best selling author, Steve Alten.Steve Alten has not only written more than one best seller, he’s also started the “adopt-an-author” program which helps engage high school students across the nation to enjoy reading through novels.English teachers across the country are plugged into Steve Alten’s work because of that.
Steve Alten has also cultivated a relationship with active servicemen and women through his reading programs as well.
Now, we have a man who’s got a platform, in fact several platforms, to reach potentially millions of people with information that we, as 9/11 truth, and anti-war activists, have tried to get to these people to know avail, because the corporate media has suppressed these stories.
Harry Shearer outted some truth about the corporate media through his platform due to his fame as a cartoon writer/character.
Steve Alten is in a position to do so with his explosive novel, “The Shell Game.”This novel not only has a cautionary tale exposing the neo-cons lie into war game plan, using false flag terror . . . BUT it also ingeniously uses REAL 9/11 truth research as chapter headers, thereby educating as it entertains.HOWEVER, EVEN BEYOND THAT, its website www.TheShellGame.net offers links to most of the major 9/11 truth activist and research websites.
By doing these things, this best selling author, who was successful before poking the neo-con dragon with “The Shell Game,” may have divorced himself from all the publicity normally given to best selling authors.
Now this is a problem for the 9/11 truth movement.Here’s why.Because if the millions that would hear about and pick up a best selling novel, which there are more than enough people smelling a rat on the war and 9/11, to make “The Shell Game” break all sales records . . . if they hear about it . . . but, again the problem is they may not . . . UNLESS . . .
UNLESS the now massive 9/11 truth movement takes this novel’s success on as a cause celeb, to drive it with the sheer will of our blogs, email lists, websites, etc. etc. to #1, and to break all sales records!
Why would we want to do that?Because, again, it will enable us to go around the corporate media blockaid of 9/11 truth, and engage a mass audience in facts we’ve all been trying desperately to get out there, and also by bringing eyes to www.TheShellGame.net where 9/11 truth research and activist sites are.
This can grow a movement, with veritably little effort, only creating a building stampede of excitement of “The Shell Game” by repeating it again and again and again in every communication we have, and by posting the below book “911 Truth” and “Oil War” trailers on our websites, in our emails, on every blog post we make . . . for the next 90 days.
Why 90 days?As I said, corporate media will likely not give this novel the attention they would if this best selling author had stayed away from exposing the neo-cons . . . so for the next 90 days it will have prime real-estate in major books stores, airports, etc. etc. ONLY BECAUSE its publisher, who believes in this book, has purchased those prime spots.
So a 9/11 truth message will be in the front of major book stores, airports, etc. etc. for 90 days.That would be like Barnes & Noble, Borders, and Air Port bookstores, coming out to our 9/11 truth activists freezing their tails off leafleting outside, and say, “Look, why don’t you come in here.Here, you can sit on this book shelf in our nice warm store, yes, right here where everyone can see you, and you can offer them your 9/11 truth information.Good, comfy?Would you like some cocoa?”
NOW HOW DO WE KEEP THIS DREAM GOING?By driving the sales through the roof.This publisher can’t afford to keep buying this real estate in book stores, UNLESS this book’s sales shoot up.
NOW HERE’S A BIGGER DREAM.“IF” we, as a 9/11 truth, anti-war, and environmental movement . . . can drive this book, “The Shell Game” up to #1 and beyond . . . it will get picked up by Walmart, grocery stores, stop and shops, etc. etc. etc.Yeah, I’m not crazy about Walmart either, but if they’d give me a nice warm prime spot to sit in and hand out 9/11 truth literature . . . I’D BE THERE IN A HEARTBEAT TO EDUCATE THEIR CUSTOMERS THAT THEY’VE BEEN LIED TO AND MANIPULATED BY A NEO-CON OIL WAR 9/11 SHELL GAME!!
Now, I’ve been at 9/11 truth work for 7 years now.When anyone is about to break something BIG to get truth out widely, they are ALWAYS attacked from many directions with a ferocity.Their motives are challenged, tiny details are taken out of context and twisted, and used to separate and divide others wanting a new 9/11 investigation, from supporting that effort.

Does this mean you'll continue posting the same article over and over again for 90 more days?!? And at the end of that - when Mr. Alten and the prominent LDS publisher Cedar Fort, Inc. (going by the dba of "Sweetwater") have moved about 50 to 75K units, will you stop this silliness...?
I'm not a Bible thumper but Romans 8:24-25 comes to my mind, "For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it."
And so I shall wait patiently with the hope that this too shall pass.

This person was a "contractor" for the FBI. My father was an FBI agent. This does not make me an expert, but, it gives me one perspective. The FBI is responsible for sensitive information. If you think that they are going to allow a "contractor" to have access to sensitive information..ie...information they do not want brought to the attention of the public at large why the hell are they letting some "contractor" read it?
Next, this woman was a translator, not an agent.
Next issue. Rupert Murdoch releases the story in the Sunday Times? What!?
Do you know who Rupert Murdoch is? Upon completion of research, you will discover who Murdoch is and the release of the "story" in his newspaper is confirmation that the story is disinformation.
I am not a truther, but I will say this. 90% of the research I have looked at does a superb job of proving and supporting that there were NO HIJACKERS. Perhaps, Ms. Edmonds is being used and is not aware. If that is the case I would hope she researches the information she obtained while working as a contractor for the FBI before presenting it as truth to the public.
"Here miss? Would you translate all this top secret material before your contract expires and need to write a book or something?" You gotta be kidding me.
