Cynthia McKinney (in March, 2002 interview): 
“… officials explain to us that September 11 happened because we are free. And they hate us because we are free. 

Moreover, persons close to this Administration are poised to make huge profits off America's new war. Former President Bush sitson the board of the Carlyle Group. The Los Angeles Times reports that on a single day last month, Carlyle earned $237 million selling shares in United Defense Industries, the Army's fifth-largest contractor. The stock offering was well timed: Carlyle officials say  they decided to take the company public only after the Sept. 11 attacks. The stock salecashed in on increased congressional support for hefty defense spending, including one of United Defense's  cornerstone weapon programs. 

Now is the time for our elected officials to be heldaccountable. Now is the time for the media to be held accountable. Why aren't the hard questions being asked. We know there were numerous warnings of the events to come on September 11. Vladimir Putin, President of Russia, delivered one such warning. Those engaged in unusual stock trades immediately before September 11 knew enough to make  millions of dollarsfrom United and American airlines, certain insurance and brokerage firms'stocks. What did this Administration know, and when did it know it aboutthe events of September 11? Who else  knew and why did they not warnthe innocent people of New York who were needlessly murdered?” 

However, McKinney’s profound truth spoken in this interview were so relentless and so incredibly damaging to a wholly corrupt government that used 9/11 to distract the public like a pickpocket touches your arm, while he lifts your wallet from your pocket . . . that it is just hard to decide exactly what prompted her media/government lynching. 

It may have been when she insisted that we know where $2.3 TRILLION the Pentagon LOST, is. 


Cynthia McKinney (in March, 2002 interview): 
“It was incredible sitting in the room on the day that secretary Rumsfeld gave his presentation to members of the Armed Services Committee. Of course I serve on the House Armed  Services Committee, and every year the Secretary of Defense comes before that Committee with a statement on the budget. Now, the 48.1 billion $ increase that SecretaryRumsfeld requested was interesting  because basically what he said was we can afford it. Not withstanding the fact that the Pentagon has lost 2.3 trillion dollars that we very well cannot afford to have lost.” 

You’ll find this and more on Green Candidate McKinney’s enormous courage in Congress, at a 911Truth.org archive.

Perhaps what got the GOP, and Democratic establishment, and corporate media to turn on Congresswoman McKinney like a pack of rabid dogs, was that she just saw through the whole charade of 9/11, a false flag operation meant to fool Americans into acting counter to who they were, and to pervert our precious democracy in the name of fear.


Cynthia McKinney (in March, 2002 interview):
“Authorities tell us that the world changed on September11. As a result, university professors must watch what they say in class or be turned in to the "speech" police. Elected officials must censor themselves or be censured by the media. Citizens now report behavior of suspicious-looking people to the police. Laws now exist that erode our civil liberties.
 
Americans now accept these infringements as necessary to win America's New War. America, the world's only superpower, is stifled in its ability to defend human rights and democracy abroad because it has failed the fundamental test at home. Our combination of money and military might, and our willingness to use them, did not make us a superpower. We are the most powerful nation on the face of the planet because we have combined raw power with American ideals such as dignity, freedom, justice, and peace. These ideas and ideals are admired around the globe and are more important, in my view, to our position of global strength than our ability to shoot a missile down a chimney. We might be feared because of our military, but we are loved because of our ideals. Sadly, we have put American  goodwill at risk around the world because of an imbalance in our foreign policy that is palpable even to the most disinterested observer.” 

Cynthia McKinney, even as a young Congresswoman, had the wisdom and courage of an elder statesman.  She was undaunted by the terror attacks of 9/11, and unlike most of her fellow legislators, was still able to see clearly, and know when our people were being bamboozled.  And she said so, and that was the beginning of her end in Congress. 

Just days after her KPFA radio interview, the corporate media’s attacks became vicious and relentless.  I personally watched a network morning news program eviscerate her with unfair slaps and character assassinations, that left her not only undefended by Donna Brazil, a supposed Democrat, but I actually heard Ms. Brazil giggling in the back ground along with the right wing hacks attacking McKinney for her courage. This attack took on a deafening roar echoing through the trivial echo chamber that passes for our media, none looking at what she said, all just using the cheapest shots to attack her.

Then a former Republican woman, an African American former Republican woman, was found and run against McKinney for the Democratic Primary for her Congressional seat.  The Georgia newspapers and media participated in the same character assassination on McKinney.  It took its toll.  Then many Republicans crossed over in the primary to vote for the shill and against McKinney.  The campaign to “remove” McKinney from Congress was relentless, vicious, and some say illegal.   

One thing that is certain is that now Green Party Presidential candidate, Cynthia McKinney is a champion for truth.  She lives and breathes it.  

I've supported Cynthia for years for her work for truth.  Today I am also supporting the work of a NY Times best selling author.  His new novel a unique edu-tainment book that combines very important facts that show the reader that we have been LIED TO ABOUT THE EVENTS OF 9/11, by using real 9/11 truth research as chapter heads.  The book’s website www.TheShellGame.net also leads readers to a host of 9/11 truth websites, documentaries, and books researching the events of 9/11, and also activist sites to get readers involved in the movement demanding new 9/11 investigations.
