I've been getting lots of e-mail from readers, both Dems and Republicans, that are SHOCKED by the 9/11 revelations. They are disgusted and want to know more. Every time a book is sold and read, a mind is reprogrammed. Or de-brainwashed.

What's important now is NOT TO LET UP! Your efforts have given us momentum, but it can be so much more. A novel can reach the critical masses during a critical elections. A number 1 - 5 spot will add fuel to the movie potential (I already have a producer attached.) Oh...the new second editions list many of you in the ACKNOWLEDGMENTS.

I'm committed. For the record, I've already spent every dime I made on the book for the two book trailers (see http://youtube.com/theshellgame ). And like you, I get my daily dosage of e-mail threats. Photos of my home on blogs. My private phone numbers. Stealing of private e-mails. Calls at 4am. Someone is certainly getting freaked out about the potential of a novel. To quote Tom Petty, "I won't back down."

I hope you won't either.

All of you have done so much and suffered for your efforts. I don't have to tell you that changing the mind-set of the masses is like pushing a boulder up a hill. The good news is that this tool has momentum.

KEEP PUSHING! The summit is visible.

Steve Alten

The Shell Game 9/11 Truth Activist's Flyer

A larger pdf version of the above flyer can be downloaded at www.TheShellGame.net
Please print out these flyers and distribute them at 9/11 truth meetings, peace & justice, or progressive meetings, concerts, documentary showings, etc. etc. Anywhere you can think of where people gather to fight for peace and truth.

**********************************

Why did 9/11 truth movement leaders initially support “The Shell Game”?

“The Shell Game”s narrative not only cautions about a US President conducting false flag terror on his own people to fool Americans into supporting oil war against Iran, but it also weaves real life quotes and real 9/11 truth research, including David Ray Griffin, and Michael C. Ruppert, leaving the reader knowing they were lied to about the events of 9/11.

However, even more exciting to the 9/11 truth movement was the unveiling of “The Shell Game”s website, www.TheShellGame.net which provides readers links to most of the major 9/11 truth research websites, DVDS, research books, as well as links to most major 9/11 truth activist sites.

But, then as “The Shell Game” author Steve Alten began to get mainstream talk radio interviews he boldy asserted that we need a new 9/11 investigation to determine if 9/11 was an inside job, and to investigate the multiple War Games held on 9/11, and Cheney’s apparent stand down order to allow the aircraft to hit the Pentagon, including Transportation Secretary, Norm Mineta’s, explosive testimony Zelikow’s 9/11 Commission mysteriously censored.

However, what electrified many 9/11 truth seekers was when on mainstream talk radio in Philadelphia last week, “The Shell Game,” author, Alten condemned former President Bill Clinton’s attacks on 9/11 truth seekers, and said that Americans should be supporting 9/11 truth activists for their work, for they are the new patriots of our time. After 6 years of being ridiculed on corporate media, the 9/11 truth movement finally found someone with the ear of mainstream media who told the truth, that the 9/11 truth movement are the great heroes of our time, and should be SUPPORTED BY ALL AMERICANS!

The above interview is no longer available online, but Alten's explosive interview with Jack Blood on Radio Deadline can be heard below:

Read it as soon as it came out

And today donated it to the local library, so more people can read it. Even though it makes no real mention of Israel's seeming involvement, it still should awaken people and get then looking into the many unanswered questions about that infamous day.

"The Shell Game" or... Sprockets!

Woohoo! In the words of Dieter from Sprockets fame on Saturday Night Live, "Now, I am as happy as a little gurl," followed immediately by, "You plug [the book] with the subtilty of a flying mallet," and ending with, "Would you like to touch my monkey [an obvious euphemism for 'read the book']? Touch him! Love him! Rühren mein Affe! Lieben meine Affe-monkey! ... He is smitten with you, I can tell."

And there are more Dieter quotes that oddly enough apply here:

"Sadly, Klaus is limited. But he is beautiful, is he not," - an apparent reference to Mr. Douglas' tireless focus on "The Shell Game".

"Karl-Heinz, your body is beautiful and angular, and if you were a gas, you'd be inert," - Mr. Douglas' veneration of Mr. Alten as the author of "The Shell Game".

"Textures intrigue me," - the troubling 9/11 connections and conclusions woven into the fabric of "The Shell Game" that Mr. Douglas believes will convert others into Truthers.

"I appreciate a warm hand on my opening," - Mr. Douglas' "nod" to those who comment favorably about - yes, you guessed correctly - "The Shell Game".

"Why is it that the truly brilliant are doomed to a life of obscurity, surrounded by a sea of mediocrity, only to end up covered in sores in a pool of their own filth? Oh well, the beat goes on," - Mr. Douglas' fear of "The Shell Game" not making it to #1 on the New York Times (NYT) Bestsellers list.

"His agony was gorgeous. I need to be slapped," - the thoughts of Mr. Douglas when he "one-ups" Tom Murphy in an exchange of words and ideas on "The Shell Game".

"Your setup has become tiresome," - the response from Mr. Douglas when Tom Murphy "one-ups" him in an exchange of words and ideas on "The Shell Game".

"Now is the time on Sprockets when we dance," - Mr. Douglas' natural reaction to 'The Shell Game" hitting #31 on the NYT Bestsellers list.

The quotes and associations are made in good, clean fun and not meant to be personal (i.e., don't go all politically correct on me). As I have noted previously here, I am a big fan of parody and found the quotes to good not to include.

Boy, "The Shell Game" has got Tommy squirming :-)

Squirm Tommy, squirm. Because the truth is coming out my friend to a mass public you can't stop from looking at it:

www.TheShellGame.net

Share the above link widely, and help out the truth about 9/11.

I try not to squirm - reminds me of hemorrhoids...

Will do.

Folks, check out the latest New York Times Bestseller (currently #31) from Steve Alten - "The Shell Game". Cedar Fort, Inc (dba Sweetwater Books) has a convenient link here - http://www.cedarfort.com/sweetwater/shellgame.html .

I recommend everyone check out the book at this link. And while your there, perhaps you could pick up some other LDS award winning and nominated works!

This is another Mormom book that should not be overlooked! 9/11 never seemd so real and utterly evil as it does within "The Shell Game"'s pages! Well, maybe it did when we all actually watched the horror of 9/11, but this IS different because you're now paying to read about it!

BTW - I picked up a copy and plan to start reading it this weekend. Upon completion of the read, I intend to post a review for Mr. Alten, as he suggested in an earlier post.

Good, have a traveling court !!! and also many approaches to

Good, have a traveling court !!! and also many approaches to outting truth. WeAreChange is confronting Tim Russert and other media criminals on video and they are being judged by a court of public opinion every day.

Many 9/11 truth action people are confronting the neocons and through youtube they are being judged by a court of public opinion every day.

This is how movements are built.

Willie Nelson uses his fame to say "9/11 was an inside job, and the wars are for oil."

Steve Alten uses his skills as a writer to unveil 9/11 research to a mass public the corporate media has censored it from, and it is waking people up every day. People who would never go to a rally or watch a research DVD.

Rivulets of truth pour from many angles, and when enough people know that 9/11 was a lie, the cowards in Congress begin to feel more pressure NOT TO INVESTIGATE . . . than they've felt to investigate.

The good people in the courts, and they are there, your wholesale condemnation of everyone being evil except you . . . is wrong.

When the good people in the courts, know that an overwhelming majority of Americans know we were lied to on 9/11 . . . this will embolden them to do what they feel is right, instead of just what will continue their career.

When the overwhelming majority know, careers are no longer in danger for doing what's right, and in fact people can become heroes in their careers for doing right.

Our job is to get as much truth out as we can to create the mass demand for truth from all angles and all ways. "The Shell Game" is waking up a hell of alot of people, and if we help it to go to #1,

share www.TheShellGame.net and post the 90 second 911 Truth book trailer there EVERYWHERE . . .

If we help it go to #1 we can wake up millions of Americans. That would be a huge step in the struggle for truth and accountability.

There is .....

a "tipping point" out in front. Hopefully not very far away. Steve Alten's book has the possibility of concentrating a lot of attention in a short period of time. And if you get a lot of people to start asking questions at the same time, well, it sure can't hurt.

sanity is on a roll

tipping point indeed

The problem is that too many of us are too knee jerk conditioned by the past, and it IS a horrific past (from 2000 on . . . ), but read the polls, talk to your colleagues and neighbors. There's a good time coming and it ISN"T so far away. This is one of those rare moments in history when you can't predict the future from the patterns of the past. Our future is WIDE OPEN: 9/11, assassinations, genocide, Mother Nature rape and on and on. HERE IT COMES, ALL OF IT! Tipping point, critical mass, whatever SANITY IS ON A ROLL IN AMERICA.
