Were the military and the FAA really that incompetent? Were our intelligence-gathering agencies really in the dark about 9/11? How could so much go wrong at once, in the world's strongest and most technologically sophisticated country? Both the government and the mainstream media have tried to portray the 9/11 truth movement as led by people who can be dismissed as "conspiracy theorists." This volume shows this caricature to be untrue. Coming from different academic disciplines as well as from different parts of the world, the authors are united In the conviction that the official story about 9/11 is a huge deception manufactured to extend Imperial control at home and abroad.

People always ask where to go if they are to begin to believe what I just told them. I hand them this book. When it comes to 9/11 Griffin and Scott are the gate keepers. Scott takes time. He has some interesting stories to tell. Stories that must be out there. Griffin does too. I remember someone said of one of his books that if only 30% was true that would be astonishing. This is one of those books we need to hand to Bernie Sanders. You can read it in a short time. It's the place to start on 9/11.

Well-rounded read, and a personal must-have.

January 13, 2013

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

My seminal library on the subject of 9/11 kicked off with a couple of so-so reads that for our purposes need not be identified here. This volume, however, packs exactly the sort of punch I was looking for as an alternative to browsing endless websites, only some of which seem credible ie. the 9/11Truth sites: Engineers, Architects, Pilots.
A number of highly-credentialed spokespersons from academia and the professions register opinions and observations on 9/11 within their own areas of expertise. I have become fairly adept at sorting wheat from chaff on the subject of 9/11 controversy; the more one reads, the better informed and better able to discern mere puff and hysteria from hard data one becomes. With this in mind, I warmly recommend this volume as a perfect starting point for 9/11 neophytes, and a solid addition to the reference libraries of those farther along the road. Something terrible happened that day but as a certain famous literary character says, There are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in your philosophies.. or, I might paraphrase, in your politically-correctness and pseudo-patriotism. Gentle reader, I hope you will read this and profit by it.

Bone chilling! Now I am even more afraid of our new administration coming in. What in God's name is wrong with what we allow our elected officials and their cronies to do in our name? Great book, but most people don't care enough to stand against the government when things are done that cost American and others to die for nothing? God help those that think we are the crazy ones. Anyone need a mirror ? Thank you. Peggy Bell

Recoil Not

October 12, 2007

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

As soon as I heard Samuel Barber's "Adagio for Strings" appear as the definitive soundtrack for all things 9/11 during the initial grim days of this national tragedy, I had the sneaky suspicion that the event itself would wrap around us as an emotional blanket of perpetual grief and fear, smothering us to the cause of this effect, but warming us to a nationalistic zeal unmeasured in our history. There are countless books chronicalling the arrogance, calumny, deception, and criminality of the Bush administration, and even if all of his minions and Bush himself were jailed for their collective crimes against humanity, what they have done in all other constitutional and other matters pales in comparison to what "9/11 and the American Empire" suggests they've done in regard to 9/11 itself. I normally recoil from the culture of conspiracy, choosing to seek a sober, data-driven, argument for cause and effect relationships. In many ways this book achieves that in a refreshingly cold-hearted way. Subtracting the emotion from its charge, the authors argue cooly for the plausibility that a cadre of neo-cons were dedicated to advancing American hegemony, ignoring the rationale it takes to warrant Empire, and ignoring the lessons history has given them to recoil from pursuing Empire. If you have your own suspicions about the nature of anything 9/11, you owe it to your own curiosity to read this book. When it settles on you that a greater truth is out there beyond what the vapid mass media reports, then you'll have to decide for yourself whether to recoil from a harder truth that our government is in the grips of a new kind of fascism, or just turn away, shrug in disbelief, and change the channel and hope for the best.Finally, those who dismiss any scholarship on seeking the truth on 9/11 should embrace skepticism for its own sake, for doubting the motives of those who have abused authority and power is at the very core of democratic thinking and the very founding of our constitutional republic. The secrecy of the Bush administration, couched as it is in claims of national security, is cause for great concern. The very fact, verifiable even in the most flaccid journal of mass media, that Bush did NOT want 9/11 investigated suggests culpability.Though I do not want to believe my country's leaders would concoct such a monstrous offense to America and the world, I believe skepticism warrants a vigorous investigation into this terrible tragedy.

Evidence Beyond A Reasonable Doubt

October 25, 2012

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Evidence Beyond A Reasonable Doubt. Like all his work, this book presents evidence which can only have one conclusion, inside job and cover-up and begs the question why the main stream media is not screaming for a new investigation. If you read any of his critics they find no fault with the evidence but can not imagine the Government doing such a thing. These individuals need to read their history, Pearl Harbor, JFK, Gulf of Tonkin, Pentagon Papers, Watergate Northwood, Iran Contra, Venezuela, Oklahoma City, Ruby Ridge, Waco to name a few. A history of lying and cover-up and they will keep on doing it as long as corporate mass media keeps silent. Follow the money and ask who benefited?
