When "The Shell Game" hits #1 on the New York Times List, and it will when the 9/11 truth movement treats it like a serious campaign, as "The Shell Game" has treated 9/11 truth issues and websites . . . millions of new eyes who hear about and google "The Shell Game" will be led to 9/11 truth sites and actions, who would take years if not decades to learn about their existence without "The Shell Game"s success.

We have it within our grasp to make this happen. Learn more about this opportunity to out truth by listening to the below radio interview on Michael Hertzog "American Awakening" Show on Republic Radio, on 9/11 activism, and what we can do:

Re: David Ray Griffin's Mass Media Breakthru

Breaking the corporate media blockade indeed Bill. Nice article.

And Larry (the rat) Silverstein is now claiming that it was the Trade Tower's antenna which fell and sliced through Building #7 causing the gas mains to explode  yadda! yadda! yadda! This no good lying bastard !

Bill, what if everyone were to email Keith Olbermann demanding that he invite Richard Gage, David Ray Griffin and Steve Alten onto his program? That would be incredible! Imagine that? I know that Oprah Winfrey doesn't want the Truth. That would be the exposure needed for the 911 Truth movement and for The Shell Game to reach the people. Oprah's too dam busy counting her billions, the root of all evil to care about the America which is crumbling all around her. I loathe that woman!

The Truth is the only tool which can help right this once great country of ours. Otherwise stick a fork in it.

I think the best thing we can do, is to use the internet to post the 90 second trailers, and the media on "The Shell Game" out through Democratic Underground, and all the activist bloggs and site, and urge everyone to spread the word on The Shell Game.

The movement is big enough to drive it to #1, and when it gets there, Alten can blast 9/11 truth out in a huge way.  The media can't ignore a #1 best selling book.

Alten is blasting 9/11 truth out in the media almost daily in his interviews.

An oped on an article on him today, will be out in an oped tomorrow.

Urge all to spread the word: www.theshellgame.net.

Why Hasn't the Media Broken the "Inside Job" Story?

Let us review…

The media (i.e. MSNBC):
promote the “official” version as “the truth”
ridicule the “alternate” version as the “offensive wacky conspiracy theory”
shun the “REAL” version and court cases

Plants in the ”truth movement” (i.e. Steven Jones):
promote the “alternate” version as “the truth”
ridicule the “REAL” version as “offensive wacky conspiracy theory”



We can now understand why many “truthers” shy away from no-planes/TV-Fakery. Seems the 9/11 coverup perps tricked the “truth movement” with a well orchestrated plan of deception! Will these theories really “damage” the “truth movement”, or has the movement merely been tricked into thinking so?

Many “truthers” often wonder why the mainstream media hasn’t broken the “inside job” story yet. The reason is simple: The 9/11 perps have not been exposed. (Check the “Suppression Timeline” linked above.)

Only after the real 9/11 perpetrators are widely exposed with the media break!

Will “truthers” finally start promoting no-planes/TV-Fakery? If the “truth movement” can’t admit their mistakes, why should the average person? People will simply continue believing what they feel most comfortable with: the “boxcutter” story. They don’t care about the evidence. Why should they? After all, the “truth movement” doesn’t. Or do they???


How many “truthers” have looked at the no-planes/TV-Fakery evidence lately… evidence that anyone can understand?

Below you will find a ton of evidence. Look it through… you maybe surprised!

Promoting a fictional novel? Use ONLY the internet?

Hmm well, the former is questionable as a way of spreading the "truth" about 9/11.

How about publicising the Qui Tam cases of Wood and Reynolds. Griffin never speaks of these - why? Where's his Qui Tam case? He has written more books than anyone else, so where is his court case?

Come on DRG! We're countin' on ya!

Anyway, I burn and give away my own DVD's - so why not do that? Print leaflets and booklets.

And even in the European Parliament, Griffin fails to mention the Qui Tam's or evidence other than bogus thermate stuff - so what's he up to, then? Why not at least mention other evidence that is well and truly on the table? What is going on? I think CB is right...

Andrew, you are obviously an agent, or ignorant of the facts

Woods bogus suit in NYC was meant to make anyone questioning the 9/11 officialy myth, as a nut.

Griffin is a great researcher, and has done more for 9/11 truth than anyone.  David Ray Griffin's books have shook the foundation of the 9/11 lies by the goverment.

Whis is why posters like Andrew spend so much time attacking him.

Bill Douglas should really wake up

Drs Wood/Reynolds lawsuits represent the TRUTH of 9/11, in that they are based on the actual evidence.

David Ray Griffin is a promoter of molten metal (a proven hoax), a promoter of Steven Jones (a proven fraud), and is for Global Government (aka New World Order) as well.

What is a NWO person doing in the "truth movement"???

fantastic.

Thank you for recording this. wonderful and Brave work. Great work actually.

The antenna from the exploding tower - falling in the opposite direction you say?...cut number 7 so deeply and fatally, rupturing diesel tanks which were SO big and burned SO hard  that nobody recorded it ANYWHERE for a whole day except larry, and then , damage being so obvious and the integrity of the building so compromised that fire chiefs old larry forgot hadn't told him anything , got word out to pull the building.......oh. sorry. we mean pull out...... evacuating the area, [boom-boom-boom]then collapse neat as a pin after the hard hats got out???  

What balls this guy has. He uses the death of all those people he is YET to face the ghosts of in open fair court , as part of HIS shaming tactic in reverse to shut up questioners who probably actually lost someone. wow. Now we know what direction the 250million page NIST report is going to take if they ever manage to rope its frayed edges together long enough to bale the damn thing.

The antenna cut the building. the diesel burned the steel. The noble eagle of no7 stood for 7 hrs just long and heroic enough for evacuation, then gave way in perfect unison to drop 47 stories in 7 seconds.

How lucky was larry

Nope...

The "Shell Game" is among the worse things out there. It is propaganda designed to fool people into believing the Peal Oil hoax. Anyone promoting such stuff obviously has no idea of the seriousness of this issue.

The Global Elite have plans, and promoting Peak Oil as if it were real is the WORSE thing anyone can do:

World Depopulation is Top NSA Agenda: Club of Rome

The Haig-Kissinger depopulation policy

 

Anyone notice the rise is gas, milk, eggs, etc lately? No, it's not caused by a limited supply of oil. It is caused by the World Bank / IMF raising oil prices to siphon money from American people.

Everyone should watch this presentation:

Lindsey Williams, who has been an ordained Baptist minister for 28 years, went to Alaska in 1971 as a missionary. The Transalaska Lindsey Williams, who has been an ordained Baptist minister for 28 years, went to Alaska in 1971 as a missionary. The Transalaska oil pipeline began its construction phase in 1974, and because of Mr. Williams' love for his country and concern for the spiritual welfare of the "pipeliners," he volunteered to serve as Chaplain on the pipeline, with the subsequent full support of the Alyeska Pipeline Company. Because of the executive status accorded to him as Chaplain, he was given access to information documented in his eye opening book, The Energy Non-Crisis.
After numerous public speaking engagements in the western states, certain government officials and concerned individuals urged Mr. Williams to put into print what he saw and heard, stating that they felt this information was vital to national security. Mr. Williams firmly believes that whoever controls energy controls the economy. Thus, The Energy Non-Crisis.



FREE ENERGY EXISTS and there's no reason to use oil anyway.

It amazes me

That Sliverstein is still walking the streets and Bush is still in the White House - but there they are.  Sometimes it seems like the truth movement gains steam, only to be silenced.

This is great work - but still - it amazes me how many United States citizens are still sleep walking.  And how the Main Steam media can simply make up a story - support national propaganda - or make atrocities like a million dead Iraqi's and a failed illegal war of aggression, simply disappear down the rabbit hole.

Big Picture

Steve Altens book, it is a perfect psy-ops creation, intended or not, but still a good read.  While it does expose some of 9/11 (he took care to avoid the towers collapsing due to explosions), it also provides justification for such staged attacks in order to avoid a greater threat, which is an attack by Islamic terrorists using WMD's.   And post 9/11 he presents Iran as a great nuclear threat and exaggerates it's nut case President as having more power than he does have (he has no power over the military or any weapons development program).  Perfect spin for the neo-cons who did 9/11 and want to do Iran.  In a sense, his book is an effort to awaken a  segment of the population who are still asleep, but might wake up, and presents it in a way that people can rationalize it as being a terrible thing, but perhaps was necessary, and so lets government off the hook.

Whats fascinating, if you can look at this in a detached fashion, is considering the Big Picture and figuring what 9/11 was really all about.

We all know that 9/11 allowed us to do Iraq and Afghanistan and rebuild our defenses as per the PNAC, and of course created this "police state to be" under the guise of Homeland Security.

But was there something more?

There were simpler ways to accomplish a justification for Iraq and Afghanistan than killing 3000 Americans, we have had so much practice doing this in other countries we wished to be engaged with in the past.

And what was the police state apparatus all about?   Post 9/11 this country was as united as I have ever seen it with patriotic fervor (skip this comment if you really believe it was about Al Qaeda).   I did not even consider a conspiracy until 2004 myself, that was when the commission report came out,  and after reading it I said, oh-oh.  An obvious whitewash as you can get, and adding in the Iraq debacle which had started raising another alarm, I saw 2+2 might be 4, and decided to look into it in some more detail, starting with DRG's books, and here I am today, along with many others.

The people in our government, military/intelligence and behind the scenes are pretty smart people.  They pretend to be dumb and incompetent at times when it serves their purpose, but believe that at your own peril.   Were it not for the lack of air cover over DC, and the collapse of the 3 towers, no one really would have questioned 9/11, and neither the Pentagon being hit nor the towers collapsing were required for the GWOT and Iraq .  The attacks on the WTC were adequate in of themselves. 

So why did these smart people leave these smoking guns?. (if you still believe all 3 buildings were taken out by the planes, fire and gravity, you can skip the rest, I am past trying to convince people what should be obvious by now)

The fact that DRG has not had an accident, and publishers and distributors make his books readily available is also something to consider (many other books are suppressed).  He has been IMO the single most credible source for casting doubt on the 9/11 official version.  I think the reason for our accesss to his thoughts are he serves a purpose for the power elite (no, I do not believe he is an agent, he is legit).  The same goes with Steve Alten, if his book did not serve some purpose for the elite, which I attempted to explain earlier, the book would of got buried, or he gets Spitzerized.

My opinion then is that 9/11 and various post 9/11 events were intended to serve a larger purpose than just the oil and bases in Iraq/Afghanistan.  I believe it was intended to destroy Americas image as a benevolent super power protecting the world as it's global policeman, and showing how unstable democracies are.  This sets the stage for acceptance of one world government, not democratic,  with more powers than the UN has, and the infamous NWO, which will be controlled by the same people who rule us today (some in government, some not, not all Americans).

Certainly everyone has heard of the Bilderbergers, Trilateral Commission and Council on Foreign Relations, all of who promote Globalization and meet secretly.  Globalization is newspeak for One World Government .   Not saying everyone who is a member of these groups is a member of the conspiratorial elite, just some of those at the top. 

 The current economic crisis seems likely to be the beginning of a financial 9/11 to destroy the dollar and the US economy, and set the stage for a new global currency under control of the World Bank/IMF, which will be the Worlds Central Bank.  The destruction of the US economy is needed so that our living standards will be comparable to those of the nations we will be merged with.

This brings us to the need for the Police State apparatus that has been set up and puzzled me for awhile .  I believe this was preparation for the unrest expected for when people awaken to the fact that the loss of sovereignty and the lowering of their living standards following the financial 9/11 was by design. 

This would mean that this crisis was planned as early as 2001, and Greenspans action to allow the sub-primes to fuel the housing bubble since 2001 and knowing these toxic mortgages were being securitized, and even encouraged the sub-primes, well, enough said.  A job well done Sir Bubbles.

Of course, some say this is a grand conspiracy, and it is impossible to do without the people finding out.  When the conspirators control the money, the government and it's military and intelligence apparatus, as well as foreign intelligence agencies who might benefit, like Pakistan and Israel, and if they controlled the media (anthrax helped) and Democrats (Anthrax as well as they may have covered up the TWA 800 event and gave us the exploding fuselage theory instead of what was intended to be taken as terror attack with missiles by the same people who gave us 9/11), and the justice department,  then who better to conspire to execute a terror attack. Certainly they have more resources than the demon in a cave, and could get away with it, and have in fact gotten away with it.   

Those who worked on 9/11, even if inadvertently, and have access to information that is classified, can easily be kept quiet and threatened with jail if they leak classified information.  And even if someone came out, and some have, they are ignored by the controlled MSM, so the leakers, even if they wanted to come out, would realize they would just risk their own well being for nothing.

It may very well be that few people knew the actual plan, most having only a small role to play or diverted with various military exercises. Even Bush may have been clueless, other than knowing something might happen and when it does, just stay away and pretend you are dumb bydoing something like reading My Pet Goat.  And the buildings being charged may have been a surprise our government did not know of, unlikely, but possible.  Could the buildings have been demolished by a certain foreign intelligence agency who might have wanted to help a buddy  make some cash.   Who were those dancing foreigners in Brooklyn?  

It is said, evil can be done by good people only if they believe they are doing good.  The end justifies the means.  That might be comforting, or not.

The above poster is grossly misinformed. Very sad.

The above poster is completely ignorant of the fact that Steve Alten broke the WTC demolition and WTC 7 questions on national CBS radio . . .OR the above poster simply wants 9/11 truth seekers to turn away from this courageous author's work.

Whether the above poster is ignorant or an agent to dissuade the truth makes on difference, he/she is doing the cointellpro's work.

"The Shell Game" and Steve Alten are the most powerful tools the 9/11 truth movement has seen in quite some time.

Alten has linked his historic-novel to David Ray Griffin's book on amazon to encourage more readers to David Ray Griffin's work.

WTC 7 does not matter being it is a red-herring, promoted by plants within the "truth movement" (such as Steven Jones).

Yes, the demolition of WTC 7 became a lot more publicized than the perps have planned. But just the fact that is was originally promoted by the coverup perps shows that it's a red-herring designed to distract people from the REAL issues:

In my humble opinion

if the Truth Movement was to stick to "the official version doesn't make sense, we need a new, completely unfettered investigation into what happened on 9/11 conducted to find out who did it, since that's the real question and that has never been tried in a court of law or by any panel" and stop with the specific "fake TV", "Dr. Woods remote control", "Qui Tam suit", etc., we may make more progress more quickly.

I'm not arguing against or agreeing with any of the specific claims.  However, wouldn't the specifics become evident if a serious investigation was conducted?  We need an investigation:

1.      by a panel on which absolutely no one who’s had a symbiotic relationship with The Regime or any members thereof at any time in the history of the world sits

2.      which is conducted to answer the question, “Who did it?”

3.      which allows all evidence, circumstantial or otherwise

4.      which gives the panel full subpoena power

5.      during which no one, without exception, is allowed to testify in private and/or without being under oath 

Again, in my humble opinion, what makes us laughing stocks is not so much that those who believe the official story could never imagine in a million years that there could be an alternative explanation of what happened on September 11, 2001, but the specific explanations, which I, admittedly, stopped reading about when they became more confusing that clarifying.

Some find some of these specifics "outlandish" and, of course, with that mindset, would never listen to anything that spoke to another explanation.

I find nothing outlandish about most, if not all of the possibilities.  After all, look at who we're dealing with.  Never before have we ever had so many people who would do anything, bar nothing, to promote and further their collective agenda.  So anything's possible.

The best analogy I can think of is what's happening in the presidential race theater at this time.

Let's pretend for a moment that the presidential race is genuine – I realize that's a leap of faith that may be difficult to take – and look at the Democratic Party.  By everybody's and anybody's standard, there should be a Democratic president in January of 2009 and Congress should be jam packed with Democrats.  However, Clinton and Obama are making fools of one another and are actually giving the Republicans a clinic on what do to and what to say to defeat whichever Democrat is nominated.  What each Democratic candidate ought to be doing is trying to convince voters that he or she is the person most qualified to defeat John McCain.  The Democrats are definitely working hard at pulling defeat from the jaws of victory.

There are people in the 9/11 Truth Movement who seem to want to convince other members of the 9/11 Truth Movement that it happened this way or that way instead of putting their differences aside and working to get the truth exposed, letting the chips of the specifics of The Regime's guilt fall where they may.

For me, the following is a great scenario.

I believe 9/11 was an inside job.  I believe it was done in a specific manner.  But we all put the arguments about specifics aside for now and our work together to get a real investigation pays off.

During the investigation, those judging the evidence come to the conclusion that The Regime was behind 9/11.  Cheney, Bush and the rest are locked up.  Maybe some of them get the death penalty, who knows?  The basic truth about 9/11, that it was an inside job, is exposed and believed.

However, no matter how much those who believe my personal explanation of how it happened try to explain it, the argument is ultimately discarded.  Your, whoever you are, specific explanation is the explanation that the panel chooses to believe.  Nonetheless, your explanation gets the same result as my explanation would have gotten.

Does it even matter to me that my explanation was not the reason that members of The Regime are punished?  Does it not set a precedent for those who would try this again in the future?

In fact, The Regime's punishment may convince those who would try this in the future to forget it, even if my explanation was correct.  They wouldn't use the method that got them arrested or the method that I believe or any other method.  The lesson would be that, finally, the people have become strong enough to expose any regime's/administration's attempt at false flag activities.

No matter how this false flag activity was accomplished, it may be some time, if ever, if another was attempted.

We've got to get the basic truth recorded as fact – 9/11 was an inside job.  If we work together, that's much more likely to happen.
