To Muslims of America, I Apologize (Reissue)

The truth about 9/11 continues to emerge. War-crimes charges are presently being prepared against President Bush by an eminent legal steering committee (http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article21022.htm.). While not initially on 9/11, it is just a question of time before the inquiry takes that subject in as well. And, when it does, the whole scenario that has represented Muslims as terrorists will collapse as well.

I am not a Muslim, but a Jew.  Supposedly, I should somehow be antipathetic to Muslims. Supposedly too, by merely being a Jew I should somehow be a "Zionist neocon," a militarist, etc.  

I am in fact nothing of the sort. Neither are millions of my fellow Jews - any more than "Muslims" are terrorists.

In this election year, when the American public is as open and focussed as it will ever be, 
I consider it the right time to reissue this article. Its intent is to bring to the attention of the American people and the world the fact that the "secret state" has waged a campaign to paint Muslims as the "enemy within" when "Muslims" had nothing to do with 9/11.



Yes, a small number of Muslims worked as paid participants in the plot (Mohhamed Atta, for instance, and officials of the Pakistani ISI); yes, Al-Qaida was a CIA creation and played its part in the drama.

But 9/11 itself was solely the creation of the Bush administration and unknown accomplices in the CIA, FBI, military, other government agencies, and operatives, I believe, from other governments (including Mossad).


If I were to write this article today, I would change some of the factual statements in it. For instance, I now believe that an A-3 Skywarrior drone hit the Pentagon. But these alterations do not affect the main message here, which is that the world owes Muslims an apology.  

People of America, it is time to ask the forgiveness of Muslims of America for years of stereotyping and mistreatment.  It is time to realize that there was no "terrorist conspiracy" in 2001 (whether we have created one since then by our own actions is a different question). It is time to see that we were all stampeded and fooled. All the terror alerts, heightened security, and loss of civil rights are part of a drama to keep us hoodwinked and compliant. It has nothing to do with Muslims or "terrorism."

Let me be the first to apologize to Muslims of America, Canada, Britain, and the rest of the world, for buying into the false accusations that they were in any way implicated in the events of 9/11. They were not.  I ask your forgiveness.

I pray that we may all come together in love and understanding and create a new and united future, free from the same folly of stereotyping any group or people.

I also pray for the day when the example of the global elite, military-industrial complex, or secret state, which committed the mass murders and high treason of 9/11 and numerous other evil acts, will be rejected by us all and a normal, freedom-loving life returned to on this planet.

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

 A growing consensus of Americans (and, in my case, Canadians) believe that 9/11 was a "false flag" operation carried out by the Bush administration and their agents in the American military and intelligence communities.  (1)

According to people who have studied the situation, 9/11 was not caused by 19 Middle-Eastern hijackers with boxcutters; it was an inside job like the Gulf of Tonkin incident in 1964 and the bombing of the U.S.S. Liberty in 1967. (2)
The conspiracy seems to have been aimed at frightening the American people into agreeing to attacks on Afghanistan, Iraq, and Iran.  The aim appears to be to capture Middle-East oil and establish American hegemony before the American economy itself collapsed from debt and the greenback fell as the world’s premier currency [As they both are now. SB]. (3)  

According to Michael Meacher, former British cabinet minister, the administration had been negotiating with the Taliban for a pipeline right-of-way through Afghanistan. They had offered a carpet of gold or a carpet of bombs and the Taliban refused the gold.  (4)
Some say that the plans for the invasion of Afghanistan were already in place before 9/11; that the troops were already positioned.  They allege that, prior to 9/11, George Bush had the necessary papers to go to war ready for signing on his desk. (5) 

In my view, a view which is not shared by all others in the 9/11 Truth Movement, the North and South Towers were not hit by passenger planes, but by remote-controlled drones.  These allegations explain the pod the proponents of this view point to on the belly of the aircraft that hit Tower 2, the testimony of an eyewitness that the plane that hit Tower 2 had no passenger windows and was not a passenger jet, and the tight flight manouevres that would have rendered a pilot unconscious and would have been overridden by the plane’s onboard computer.

Even though I have never

bought the Bu$h cabal ruse of 9/11, I too have begged the Muslims I've encountered in the M.E. and China where I now reside to forgive the Americans for the Farse War Of Terror Crusade bring waged by the USA.

It's reassuring to know that many can separate American citizens from the immorally corrupt Bu$h & Co. former and current administration officials, who have committed War Crimes and deserve to spend their life sentences at Gitmo enduring what "Enemy Combatant's" have.

These treasonous fascist's Goon's & Thug's have brought such scorn and contempt upon the USA that it will be decades to repair the damage inflicted by their misguided domestic and foreign policy agendas.

I have found after wandering through much of "Christiandom" and areas of Islam that Muslims are far more devout to their religion than the hypocrite "Christian" that espouses dogma that they themselves can't seem to adhere by. 

To those that claim to be devout and support Bu$h, McCain or even the republican-Lite Obama, then you are part of the problem and not behind the candidates that encourage a solution like Mike Gravel is willing to lead the way towards a better, more moral conscious USA.

Steve, you rock!

Like Stanimal, I live and work in the Muslim world (Indonesia in my case) and have nothing but the utmost respect for the Islamic faith. Despite the widespread hardships of daily life, the people I run into are gracious, hospitable, fun loving, articulate, intellectually curious - the list goes on. They are fiercely patriotic of course, but not blindly jingoistic (think about the tribal "USA, USA, USA" chants at the GOP Convention in St. Paul).

There is no question that Brand America is in the crapper on a worldwide scale, which in turn is the enduring legacy of the Bush administration. No doubt it will take a generation to re-build the trust and admiration that the Stars and Stripes used to evoke around the world. I have faith that Obama can begin that effort starting next January.
