Also, just curious—I often work on articles this way, but postdating them, which buries them in the archive. Does that show up on the RSS feed as a new article? If so, anyone reading my RSS must think I’m retarded....funny thought.
The kaliedoscope has been shaken, the pieces are in flux, soon, they will settle again. Before they do, let us re-order this world around us.”
poker without cards:
Howard Campbell: Mephistopheles is out with a trainee demon. They see a young boy pick up a piece of Truth and put it in his pocket. The young demon demands, “We have to do something.†But Mephistopheles ignores him. The young boy continues walking and sees another Truth. He picks up this piece of Truth and also puts it in his pocket.
The young demon looks expectantly at Mephistopheles. Nothing happens. The boy continues walking and puts another piece of Truth in his pocket.
The young demon is beside himself with anxiety. He blurts out, “Aren’t we going to do something?â€
Mephistopheles says, “Yes, we’ll wait until he has a few more pieces of Truth. Then, we’ll help him organize them.â€
and if by “help,” you are asking “should i post it?” then the answer is hells yeah. the disinformation has damn near won the battle and the war, and the wolverines need a cold shower, followed by a hot cup of coffee, followed by a second reading of the piece.
Took me a second read-through to completely understand your article for what it is. Good wake-up call for anyone spending too much free time on that particular chestnut. It’s a shame when people obsess, but hey, it happens. I look forward to the truth about 9-11 coming out, but one shouldn’t allow oneself to lose perspective. My money’s on the truth coming out sometime in 2044.
and 37, you already know this, but people are gonna get mad at this, and view it as defeatist. i imagine thats why its taken so long to agonize over it....
Yeah, I just wanted to format it and state it so that people would have as little ammunition as possible to call me a defeatist or shill, or...my personal favorite...a “disinformation agent”. (I love that one because any honest assessment of that term means it applies to any humans who communicate anything anywhere to anyone else.)
But I still wanted to upset people enough to have the message stick.
My favorite aspect of writing is that you never really get good at it. It’s never a breeze to format up a new article that addresses something in a new way. Not saying I’m an innovator genius, just saying “new” in terms of what I’ve written and done before. There’s always new tricks to learn.
Good article, it doesn’t just blow off all the effort people have made, but asks ‘to what end’?
What difference does it make to me personally whether the rich evil scion who did it is named ‘Bush’ or ‘bin Laden’? They both travel in the same global circles, have plenty of mutual friends, use the same banks, use the same accountants, do business deals together… both are equally unreachable by my arm.
The real world doesn’t exist in heavily-mediated approximations of events across the globe (which is all the access I have to those events.) The real world is right in front of me, and that is where work and effort should be applied.
I never really try to wake people up with 9/11. It’s only a small piece. The truth movement is doing the same thing Bush did after 9/11. Blowing it way out of proportion. AJ knew he could make a pretty penny on 9/11. After all you can only do so many DVD’s on the Police State. People want explosions. They want to analyze video as if they were professionals, because picking up a book and reading about 100,000 dollars being transferred to Atta by the head of the ISI (Pakistani intelligence) is too damn hard. Or about the continual links between CIA, FBI, and Mossad with most of the hijackers. Hell even the first bomb at WTC back in 1993 has been uncovered as a set-up. Nobody really cares about that anymore. They’ve moved on.
I’ll argue about 9/11 with other people and really it is an inside job of some sort, but it isn’t all that important if I convince you or not. Much more important that you understand what the federal reserve is and how they’ve been screwing you for a long time.
BTW for anyone that hasn’t researched into 9/11 deeper than Loose Change, get Webster Tarpley’s book Synthetic Terror Made in the USA.
As for the article, it comes off pretty strong. It was meant for people that would consider themselves “9/11 truth activists” as a slap in the face, but I didn’t really connect with it as much.
I do like discussing 9/11 and I am a middle class white dude with a computer so I fit the bill. There are a lot of links to other important events that we should be discussing as the main topic and only 9/11 as part of it. It’s a lot like the JFK assassination. The truth about exactly what happened isn’t going to help much. Important information to have anyways.
9/11 is but a symptom of a greater malaise! “Capitalism has no Conscience”, it is all about Power and Control, and we all suffer those consequences (or benefit). President Reagan talked about “trickle down economics”, yes, but what trickles up?
Arrogance, Greed, limited abiltiy to accept Truth, and Lack of Compassion.
Bush is a pawn, and so are many others. Each day we have Choices that we make which either does or doesn’t support the entrenched interest groups. The best each of of can do is to live each day with Integrity and Empathy for our fellow humans.
Genetically modified crops, the agribusiness in general, DU (depleted Uranium) the health service, and global warming to name a few topics that deserve our attention. War and Fear is profitable, Peace and Confidence is obviously perceived as not.

The question to be asked has to be “Is man intrinsically corrupt?
no, not neccessarily, but the real question is: “is it more effective to act using the assumption that man is intrinsically corrupt?” the answer may surprise you!
Upon reflection, we can posit that it is the system that is corrupt and those attracted to the upper echelons are the most corruptible. I think that humanity is collectively corrupt, but individually there is the possibility of good. The original posting quite rightly stated that 9/11 should be put into perspective compared to the global attrocities occurring each day. Think of Virginia Tech and the deaths in Iraq on that same day. Yet we do not weep for the deaths in Iraq (all deaths).
If I thought that my wife, neighbors, cousins and friends were corrupt I would have a challenging future! But your point is well made. The systemic corruption of the Western World is in part due to the idea that “we don’t have enough”, that “materialism is the mantra of the masses”.
There is more Truth about 9/11 widely available than ever before, “What are people afraid of in the ebracement thereof?” We speak of living in a democracy, yet the GAO (General Accounting Office) have verified that there was massive voter fraud in Ohio which cost John Kerry the last Presidential election. (Also in FL in 2000) Why is there no overhaul and cleanup of this? There is a huge gulf between reality and perception in the USA usually described as denial. But discourse of this nature does give me hope.
Refreshing to see this posted on Brainsturbator. Let’s refocus, but Never Forget (EVER, LIKE POST BUMPER STICKERS EVERYWHERE PLEASE)! Puppets flying into such a tantalizing web solicits consumption by the inconspicuous master, spider.
