This campaign to raise funds for the first responders by promoting “The Shell Game,” should be on the top home page of every 9/11 truth website permanently. WHY?
Yes, to help the first responders, but even moreso to do what Senator Fujita urges us all to be doing . . . break 9/11 truth out beyond the internet.
It is time to ask ourselves as a 9/11 truth movement, are we in this to simply fight the good fight, or are we in this to win?
If we are in it to win, we must be creative and take opportunities when they arrive to break into mainstream media. “The Shell Game” and Alten have been that opportunity, and still are. If you are unaware of why that is true, just listen to this 4 minute clip from his CBS National Radio interview where he brings up 9/11 truth issues.This clip covers the War Games and the FBI being forced to not do their job before 9/11, but he also got into WTC 7’s bizarre collapse on 9/11, and the illegal destruction of WTC forensic evidence after 9/11
By William E. Douglas, Jr., who is author of "The Amateur Parent – A Book on Life, Death, War & Peace, and Everything Else in the Universe." Bill has been a guest columnist for the Kansas City Star, The Business Journal, and other media worldwide. His past essays include, "Exposing the 9/11 Conspiracy Wingnuts," "The Explosion of the 9-11 Truth Movement -- US Media's Dirty Little Secret," "Good Night, and Good Luck - WMD, NIST, Popular Mechanics, 9/11 and Media Crimes" and also "Why the Jewish Community Should Demand 9/11 Truth."
Surely there are millions who make up the movement. What would it take to get them to fill up the mall at DC? Martin Luther King made history. Surely, there are several spell binding speakers to be found among those who have not been fooled by Bush. Put them in front of a crowd of 200,000 or more demanding an investigation and indictment!!! Let's get this thing off the ground.

Like bubbling crude, the 911 Truth movement is working it's way toward the surface. And it is happening not just here in America, but globally too! America is starting to wise up to this mendacity. They realize they've been had and are tired of this pernicious cabal having it's way with our Democracy, like it were some two bit hooker!
America's fed up! They're simply not gonna take it any longer and it might not be pretty? These good Americans want their dam country back. Enough! Already.

9/11 Truth Hero Heavyweight, Paul Craig Roberts, ENDORSES "T
9/11 Truth Hero Heavyweight, Paul Craig Roberts, ENDORSES "THE SHELL GAME" AS A TRUTH TELLING PHENOMENON !!!
"'The Shell Game' is a new book that gives the unimaginative Americans reality in the form of a novel interwoven with real events and people. I recommend it to everyone, especially those who believe the 9/11 Commission Report.
I don't think that Americans have any idea of the secret schemes serving undeclared agendas that are going to involve them in greater horrors than the current wars."
-- Paul Craig Roberts Paul Craig Roberts, besides being a major voice demanding 9/11 truth, has been known as the Father of Reaganomics, and was a former editor and columnist for The Wall Street Journal and columnist for Business Week and the Scripps Howard News Service, he is a nationally syndicated columnist for Creators Syndicate in Los Angeles and a columnist for Investor’s Business Daily.
Roberts was also the John M. Olin Fellow at the Institute for Political Economy, Senior Research Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, and Research Fellow at the Independent Institute. In 1992 he received the Warren Brookes Award for Excellence in Journalism. In 1993 the Forbes Media Guide ranked him as one of the top seven journalists.
He was Distinguished Fellow at the Cato Institute from 1993 to 1996. From 1982 through 1993, he held the William E. Simon Chair in Political Economy at the Center for Strategic and International Studies. During 1981-82 he served as Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Economic Policy. President Reagan and Treasury Secretary Regan credited him with a major role in the Economic Recovery Tax Act of 1981, and he was awarded the Treasury Department’s Meritorious Service Award for "his outstanding contributions to the formulation of United States economic policy." From 1975 to 1978, Dr. Roberts served on the congressional staff where he drafted the Kemp-Roth bill and played a leading role in developing bipartisan support for a supply-side economic policy.

Anyone who hasn't heard Alten's Explosive National CBS Radio
Anyone who hasn't heard Alten's Explosive National CBS Radio interview on the conservative mainstream Jim Bohannan show, which reached millions of listeners thru nearly 200 radio stations nationwide IS MISSING SOMETHING HUGE !! Anyone interested in unearthing 9/11 truth, who isn't spreading this OpEd and this below 4 min. interview clip . . . is missing a MASSIVE OPPORTUNITY TO FURTHER OUR FIGHT FOR TRUTH:
Where Mr. Alten has been known to frequent OpEdNews.com, this comment's specifically addressed to him. Billy is lost to his own 9/11 faith, as well as a fair number of others - to include Mr. Alten.
As I've answered and sourced previously, NORAD was only conducting one (1) exercise at the time of the attacks contrary to the five confined to the northeast "corridor". Two additional NORAD drills were scheduled but had not commenced.
In light of this, I'm forced to ask these questions. WHO do Truthers fear the most - themselves and their hidden but real doubts on 9/11? WHAT part of these sourced facts on the exercises don't Truthers understand? WHEN will they actually play the role of the skeptic and look at the EVIDENCE and not the speculation rooted in their own biases? HOW do they continue to believe the false assertions on these exercises? WHY do they thrive in the negative and wither in the positive?
Regardless... Mr. Alten, you who "innocently" feigns responsibility by claiming to "only be the messanger", read the reality of the exercises and not some silly, speculative nonsense typed up by a misanthrope whose idea of a good time is biting the same hand that feeds him. And you call the tripe that you served up in your novel - research? My sixth grader could uncover what follows, while your still playing with your "rabbit hole" - http://www.opednews.com/maxwrite/diarypage.php?did=6509 .
"What were these supposed military operations on Sep. 11th about?"
There are all kinds of exercises – AIREXs, JTFEXs, CAXs, CPXs, FTXs, TTXs, etc... There was only one (1) military exercise that was underway or active on 9/11 – Operation Northern Guardian ( click here ), which was limited to northern Canada and Alaska and NOT the Continental United States or CONUS.
Two other military exercises were planned for 9/11 – Global Guardian ( click here ) and Vigilant Guardian ( click here ) – but never commenced officially at their respective and scheduled start times because of the "real-world" attacks associated with 9/11.
There was a National Reconnaissance Office (part of the DoD) Site Recover Plan (SRP) drill conducted in Virginia. The scenario involved a small, prop-driven plane crashing into one of the office towers there due to mechanical failure ( click here ). This drill was evaluating the group's ability to implement its Business Continuity Plans (BCPs), following an incident that triggers its plan. Once the 9/11 attacks were announced, the NRO immediately canceled the drill.
And lastly, Operation Tripod was entering day two of a multi-day drill on distributing medicines to a metropolitan New York City. The City's Office of Emergency Management (OEM) conducted the drill, which included joint interaction with FBI and FEMA representatives. Once the 9/11 attacks were announced, the OEM immediately canceled the drill and used the drill's staging site (Pier 92) as its alternate Emergency Operations Center (EOC) when WTC 7 was evacuated ( click here ).
So, here we had three (3) exercises that were on-going and two (2) scheduled but not started. Three (3) of the exercises involved NORAD but only one (1) was actually drilled on 9/11. Hmmm. How many drills does the military conduct at that level in a given year? The number is many hundreds - http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/ops/ex.htm . Therefore, is it conceivable that three multiple day drills might be run concurrently for several days? I'd say that's a "yes".
The other drills were conducted (1) by DoD at the facility/functional group level – not at the service or joint service level and (2) by the NYC OEM at the city level with inputs from the state and Federal levels. These two drills had nothing to do with the military drills that were scheduled previously. Thus, was it probable that these drills, at completely different planning levels compared to the military operations, could have been scheduled on the same day? Again, that'd be a "yes"!

I happened to be at the Australian 9/11 truth conference
last week. It was a marvellous event. Very, very inspiring. Mr. Fujita ("Call me 'Yuki Fujita'") was a very likeable man (including that touch of Japanese "inscrutableness"), who fitted right in at the conference and whose presence was a great success. He made the point that in order to reach people outside of the Internet, we should always keep in mind who we were talking to, and pitch our message to what about 9/11 would interest or appeal to this particular audience.
I approached Mr Fujita and congratulated him for taking his message to the European Parliament. He regretted that it has so far been impossible to bring the message out in the open, and said that there is now an urgency to try and do so.
A foreign dignitary from Japan. Not a single member of the Australian federal, or the New South Wales state, government to welcome him.

Yes, Robert, Fujita's point is personified in "The Shell Gam
"The Shell Game" is so incredibly approachable to those masses who simply won't consider the truth of 9/11, as it is . . . action fiction.
HOWEVER, those who read it, and I know from the amazon reviews, as well as messages Alten gets from readers, EVEN BUSH REPUBLICANS who read "The Shell Game" become wholley suspicious about 9/11, many researching deeper.
"The Shell Game" is laced with REAL 9/11 facts, and you'll hear in the above link to the National CBS Radio interview Alten did. Facts that leave these action-fiction readers walking away with a WHOLE LOTTA TRUTH TO CHEW ON.
I urge all to dedicate yourselves to doing what you can to expand the readership of "The Shell Game" as widely as possible.
Alten is a force for 9/11 truth, and we can help him gain international noteriety by driving this book to #1 thru our activism, emails, blogging, etc. etc.
He made the point that in order to reach people outside of the Internet, we should always keep in mind who we were talking to, and pitch our message to what about 9/11 would interest or appeal to this particular audience.
This is exactly what I have been saying for years!
People digest things differently.

I agree with the Japanese Senator. I have invented a new way of causing trouble for those in power: whistleblower bannering. It uses the internet to move beyond the internet. Stand outside a government building as people leave work with a banner with a concise website like ae911truth.org OR patriotsquestion911.com. Check out our experience by video at NIST posted on 911blogger.com on 1/4/08 or verbally at my website 911courage.org

I tried civil dialogue with Tom. I'm still willing to. He didn't respond after I urged him to witness proof of molten steel. I guess he still denies the existence of this.
