9/11 Truth Manifesto

Here are powerful messages: The collapse of the rule of law is more important than the collapse of buildings.  Countless more have died because of 9/11 than on 9/11.  The events of 9/11 ultimately are less important than the reasons for and consequences of 9/11.

As John McMurtry said, “[9/11] allowed an illegitimate administration to transmute into America’s patriotic champion at war - above accountability and the rule of law. ‘Defending America from another terrorist attack’ became a political blank check for corporate corruption of government expenditures with impunity, war criminal acts and threats across the Islamic and alternative third world, and attacks on civil rights and commons at home.”  All this persists as 9/11 lies persist.

Despite record-low levels of public trust in Congress and the president, too many Americans still believe that elections are the path to major political reforms.  Despite a solid history of campaign lies from politicians, and overwhelming belief that the nation is on the wrong track, Americans keep hoping that they can vote their way into a better future.  Most Americans do not have a Boston Tea Party mentality.  They are unready to revolt despite revolting conditions.  Our truth movement must help Americans accept painful truth and its political fallout.  We must put all the technical truth discovered by reputable scientists and engineers to work for systemic reforms.

We must do more than oust the official story and obtain a new 9/11 investigation that now has wide support by hundreds of respected Americans (www.patriotsquestion911.com).  We must guide Americans into a more patriotic and courageous mental state.  We must help Americans become outraged and rebellious, yet also optimistic about major political reforms.

Political Strategy

Success against the power elites running and ruining our nation requires building an army of Americans openly revolting against the two-party corporatist state now in control.  The 9/11 truth movement must use political strategies to defeat the status quo political establishment.  Here are three actions.

First, with detailed technical analyses unequivocally proving that the official story is false, the movement can draft a bill that might be titled The 9/11 Truth Act of 2008.  This proposed federal legislation should be delivered to every member of the House and Senate early next year.  It would clarify the investigation: What its scope and objectives must be.  What reliable entity, public or private or a combination, must be used.  How the public must be given opportunities to present information.  What resources must be provided and what time frame must be adhered to.

We must take the initiative and specify exactly what kind of new official 9/11 investigation is necessary, recognizing that professionals in the truth movement have limited resources and cannot address all questions.  The 9/11 truth movement itself must define exactly what the first real credible and comprehensive government sponsored investigation must consist of.  We can have no confidence in anything that the political establishment might devise to silence our movement.  We must tell the public, the media and the political world what is required to reveal the total truth as to what caused, for example, the collapse of three World Trade Center buildings, especially building 7 not even hit by a plane.

Developing and submitting this legislation must then be followed up by all 9/11 groups urging their supporters to bombard Congress with demands for hearings and passage of the bill.  This is the way to engage more Americans politically to obtain full 9/11 truth.

However, few politicians’ comments support the truth movement.  A rare statement came from presidential candidate Ron Paul.  In a radio interview in January, 2007 he said that the 9/11 investigations to date are “more or less cover-up and no real explanation of what went on.”  However, later in the year when he became more visible he was asked about the possibility of the official story being orchestrated by the government.  He said emphatically “absolutely not.”  In another interview, when asked whether he thought 9/11 was an inside job that our government made happen, he responded forcefully “No.”  So apparently Paul sees a cover-up but not about the involvement of our government.  Would he support legislation for a new investigation?

Thus the second critical political action is this: Proclaim that only politicians that actively support passage of our legislation will earn support in the 2008 elections from the millions of Americans doubting the official 9/11 story.  This threat is an absolute necessity.  If the legislation is not passed by Congress and signed into law by President Bush, then we must aggressively support a boycott on voting for all Democrats and Republicans in the 2008 federal elections.

Third, all those committed to 9/11 truth should honor what the Founders gave us in our Constitution in case some day Americans lost confidence in the federal government, especially in Congress.  That day has arrived.  9/11 was that day.  They gave us the option in Article V for a convention of state delegates to propose constitutional amendments.  We must see SYSTEM reforms as only achievable through constitutional amendments that Congress will never propose nor achieve through normal legislation.

Congress and the entire elitist political establishment have intentionally denied us a convention for over 200 years.  The one and only requirement in Article V has more than been satisfied by over 500 state applications from all 50 states.  Enough is enough.  Our truth movement should join the effort of Friends of the Article V Convention at www.foavc.org by urging truth group members to join FOAVC.  The political establishment fears both 9/11 truth and an Article V convention.  We must grasp that 9/11 truth can bring us to the brink of political reforms and the convention is the process to obtain them.

Conclusion

The 9/11 truth movement must also be a political movement – but not in any partisan sense.  9/11 truth can help Americans take back their country.  9/11 truth can end the criminal, corrupt and conniving plutocracy that stole our government and mutilated our democracy.

We must transform 9/11 from a catalyzing event for imperialistic war-mongering to one for democracy renewal.  We must convert terrorist-transfixed fear into political reform enthusiasm.
