911 truth

I have done a large bit of research and thinking about 9/11.

I'm sure I'm in plenty of company around here when I say that the official story is a complete and utter absurd lie.

A good video to watch is "9/11 Mysteries:Demolitions"

of course there is 'Loose Change'--a classic.

And then we have Alex Jones's 'Terrorstorm' which also covers the London 7/7 bombings.

I'm not sure I see fewer holes in the Confirmation Bias story than in
the Official story. I say focus on fixing the problems we know we have
before we start on the ones we don't even understand yet.

Hello

I wanted to say only a simple thing: fellow americans, thats the 4th Reich coming... no big deal.

Bush's grampa and his NAZI relations (Bush family begins to profit big time)
9/11 = False Flag operation (of great proportion, and nazi-like cruelty)
Patriot Act = nazi-kind law, subverting the constitution
Invasion of Iraq = Invasion of Poland

What's next?

best regards from Rio de Janeiro.

Plenty. Five posts in and we've already been Godwin'd, when someone
throws Hitler into the mix that fast I'm inclined to be suspicious.
There's no better way to derail reasoned consideration in favor of
knee-jerk emotional response, so I wonder: Why would you want to do
that from the get-go? To keep people from examining the facts too
closely?

Both the official story and the counter-story are shot through with
holes. If we don't know how it happened, do we know why it happened?
Again, none of the explanations given ring true.

Hey Gang,

I think the simplest question with the simplest answer is,

Q: Who GAINED most from the 9/11? Who consolidated and expanded their power base the most? Whose pockets got deepest and fullest as a result of state policies in the wake of that terrible, stunning event? [Sure, it's not over by a long stretch, and the US may yet find itself deeply humbled, but, for now...]

A: The Military-industrial "Security" apparatus of the USA, and its/their bosses and flunkies.

I could be wrong, of course. I hope I am! (;-}) But the more I find out about what's really been happening, the more I wish I'd remained ignorant. Not really, but maybe you take my point. I personally find the argument that those buildings could NOT have collapsed into their own footprints like that without being carefully "demolished" VERY compelling. And common sense told me that, long before I read the engineering case. I thought it was pretty obvious, just from the live television coverage, that something extremely clever or wildly fortuitous (for someone???) had occurred.

Best,

P

I know something hit the pentagon and the hole is too small for the plane. I consider quite a few of the conspiracies theories, especially out on video a smoke screen. The pentagon and building no. 7 coming down seem very troublesome. Their are the eyewitness reports around from the people who lived near where flight 93 went down that does not jive with fox mews. A freedom of information act request revealed that the plane in question did not have one person on the list with a mid eastern name of any kind.
How about this question. How come if no body knew about did they manage to come up with all those face shots of every single one of them in less than 24 hours. The pictures were not shots from airline terminal pictures .
the conspiracy theorist lose me a bit when they say the bombs were planted in the buildings. It seemed that it would have been easier to plant as much fire power you want in the planes. But the thing that they fell straight down is a bit convenient.

Ill stick with my first two points. The pentagon being the stronger of the two

no one ever got caught for the anthrax and not a single supporting team for the hijackers. Which easily could have been brainwashed individuals by just about anyone on earth.

maybe though the powers that be know other things we do not know and felt it a necessity. My problem with this is that i expect the "leaders" to do their job better where there isn't so many holes in their story. Maybe some renegade generals staged a coup and did the anthrax and shot a missile into the pentagon. Possibly something you would not want to tell the public.

If the people are supposed to solve any problems you need a democracy. You can answer the question where the power lies. those in power or in those idealist papers from the forefathers. Go out and exercise any of the bill of rights and see what happens.

On the other hand when an Italian tells me he was asked by an American if they have roads in Italy ( i guess they never heard the expression All roads lead to Rome. or don't know where that is) and a woman from Burundi is asked if her people lived in trees, why would you trust them to the responsibility of decision making?
I cannot go for anarchy for this reason. people refused to live up to the responsibilities of even a democracy.

WHY are you insisting on replacing reasoned consideration with
knee-jerk emotional iconography? The names "Hitler" and "Nazi" no
longer refer to anything concrete or identifiable, they're just
catch-phrases to throw around when you don't want a lot of thinking
going on.

Look folks: a external opinion here, from Rio de Janeiro, Brasil.

'plain as day to me'........

that was a GREAT expression, i would add:.. plain as day to 'the ones who have some personality and /or any sense of criticism'........
and also, i have my own poiter here:

remember the russian airplane which was hit by the US military?... and where? No place as important to look after as NEW YORK!
any dumbass from anywhere in the world (like me) would argue and/or ask about this OBVIOUS question.
Say no more......

You could be wrong, but I don't think you are. Seeing the footage of the
collapes, especially the wildly obvious WTC-7 which was NOT hit by a
plane, are enough. It's as plain as day to me.

"Hitler" and "Nazi" are slang for Fascist. It is quite descriptive which doesn't make it unthinking. No worse than calling someone a "Benedict Arnold"

Tristan,

I'm with you all the way in wishing to be on guard against my OWN knee-jerk reactions, certainly, but the "complexity" argument sounds to me like apologism for USA's state-sponsored terrorism. And what about the highly palpable fact that while we sit pondering the awful complexities, George Bush and his buddies are cowboying it up, like a mother******! Kind of like...what was his name? Hee! No?

I haven't hastened to ANY conclusion, but at least I won't be a bit surprised if it turns out...

As I indicated earlier, the more I read about history and politics, the more I learn that it was as bad as thought...AND THEN SOME. At some point, I just have to trust my intuition that folks in DC are up to some VERY unsavory shenanigans. And as I said, the more I read (and think!), the more I wish I hadn't found out the awful truth, which is what those guys count on! That folks WON'T think about it, because it's too unpleasant, and they (eg W, Cheney, et al) won't even have to answer the first question. And the way they've been allowed (!!!) to strenuously close ranks to avoid scrutiny when they get 'busted', points to some VERY sordid news to come, I fear. No?

I haven't paid taxes in a while, so I really can't bitch about the waste of MY money on murderous (and snoopy, highly coercive) enterprises, but if I had...

In any case, what I see going on in Washington is just this side of acutely and debilitatingly depressing. I don't know WHAT I'm hoping will be the outcome, anymore.

And no, I think it was Howard Hughes who staged the...

... (sorry)

Hee!

Best,

Pete

Agree with everything you said, esp. the false flag reference. And yes,
they are pretty much Nazis, but worse, since it is all done under the table.

Another one: how and why did WTC7 fall? No steel frame structure does that without being demolished deliberately by explosives. Are you claiming a fire brought it down? If so, you havent' seen it fall on video, ever.

I'm not advocating theories (although I have my own) as much as poking holes in the standard story by obviously distrubing questions like the above.

I don't understand you objection, unless you are swallowing the FOX news pill.

I'm not sure what you mean by 'Conformation Bias', but let me give you a
biggie---how in the world did the Pentagon get hit at all after the WTC
got hit, given that it already has probably ___the most defended no-fly

You misunderstood me. I didn't say that there weren't holes in the
official story. What I mean is, it's not clear that anyone has a
better explanation. Clearly, something bad happened on September 11th,
2001. Unless you can tell me what happened and who was responsible for
it (and nobody has yet) then I say let's figure out what we can do
instead of just throwing blame around.

BUSH father, Bush son, Paul wolfowitz, Condolezza Rice, Donald Rumsfeld and course, the owner and his 7 billion dollars of insurance against terrorist attacks.

Blame them!
It's all written over: 9/11 is their work of art. Planned for years. I repeat: It's all written over... i can see that from here (Brasil)... i'm seeing!
In fact, is not a matter of blaming, it's all practically proved! Course it won't appear that easy through the mass media, no doubt (it would be not a long-time planning if they wouldn't care about that previously, come on...) It's put in a way that anyone can see... just look at the fact itself. Demolition - Invasion - War.
Just another false flag operation... big deal.

Maybe you're right. The implications, though, are so staggering that I
can't comprehend a world in which this is true. Think about the sorts
of things these people would have to do in order to orchestrate the
whole thing, all the while knowing that there was no greater purpose
to what they were doing.

Consider: People in power make difficult decisions all the time. They
often look easy in retrospect, but often at the time they are faced
with two horrible choices, and they have to decide which one to take.
Hiroshima is a good example: whether or not you agree with the
decision, neither option was morally justifiable. But to think that
all the people you listed, and a great deal more who must have been
involved, could all be faced with a moral no-brainer and all pick the
repulsive answer...

I don't know how to fit that into my world-view. I understand that
people are motivated by greed and have skewed moral compasses, but
that so many people could be so skewed is absurd, not in a "I am an
elephant" way but in a Samuel Becket, life has no meaning sort of way.
It's fucking scary.

You may commence mocking my naiveté now. That I understand perfectly well.

You have put in trully and humble way your opinion Rozencrantz... and i aprecciate that. Now i can understand you better...

so, let's begin by not: "mocking your naiveté now", but to NOTICE your naiveté now...
see, even in a poor place like Brasil (and i'm not poor of course, but not rich too), we can figure simple things like: "which is the capitol of USA, or Canadá, or Italy, or even African countries". But, how 'in the world' american students, from all ages and classes (economically) don't know how to differ which country Buenos Aires capitol is???? Do you know? (without going to google to confirm?).
What's that? Media/Education mind-control dude... no less. Naive (in this case) is the person who doesn't know about that yet... I have 29 years old. Since my 8, 9 years old, i'm aware of that. No kidding. And, being honest and respectful with you now: when you say " I don't know how to fit that into my world-view", you show me that kind of Naivety... like: one, in order to have clear view of things and formulate its own opinion, must know that he cannot hold opinions or any pre-conceived world-views for so long... Thats 'ontological' (means: you cannot change your mind fixed in a cristalized view-of-things)
Second: when you say: "world-view"... do you mean that ALL that happens in the USA has to do with the whole world? Or vice-versa? Like, if the USA was the 'center' of the world? That is a good question... for EVERY american by the way (even those who challenges the official story in this case...).
To a conclusion: american people are taught to care about what happens INSIDE the USA, geographicly, historically and politically. No more than that... so, is not surprising that a smart fella like you (i can see that reading your well balanced arguments and good writting as well) would happen to be on this well-built-structure of mass mind control.
Last question. Did you know that ALL latin american dictatorships were CIA/FBI/USA plots???
If you say no, i can advance to ya that you're not reading EVEN US official stories, cos, yesterday, i've just read that the new CIA chief just happened to release this up-till-now-classified informations. And, fancy... just this little info... i'm chatting online/phone with american people since the IRAQ invasion, and nobody believed that. Now we have a confession... 30 years later...
Well, it's possible that 30 years from now, the same can happen about 9/11...
Let's hope... NO, LETS MAKE THIS facts to come up FASTER!!!

Argentina. And I even know how to pronounce it. I've yet to run into a
situation where that was useful to know off the top of my head,
though. It's the sort of thing you can look up in a second.

> What's that? Media/Education mind-control dude... no less. Naive (in this case) is the person who doesn't know about that yet... I have 29 years old. Since my 8, 9 years old, i'm aware of that.

The ideal I strive for is a post-conceived world-view, but that may
not be possible. You must know that there are beliefs so central to
each person that they will say up is down if that's what it takes to
preserve those beliefs. I don't think anyone can escape that entirely.

By world-view I mean the way that I think about the world. It's silly
to think that the USA is the center of the world. What I meant was
that the way I think about the world doesn't have room for so many
people all coming to the same seemingly absurd conclusions, without
even one of them giving the game away.

My mind is a small place, and has little room for politics. I've
divided my time between US and Chinese politics, because those are the
ones most relevant to my life plans. US politics because I live here,
and Chinese politics because I plan to move there.

> Last question. Did you know that ALL latin american dictatorships were CIA/FBI/USA plots???

I had suspected as much. I knew on a case-by-case basis that all of
the ones I knew of had been installed by the US, but I always held out
hope that there was one I hadn't heard of that was not installed.

Well my friend, that's precisely what i've meant. "THEY" want to feel this depression... at a point that you get away from it. But, you're somme fella that is not entirely feeling that. If that was true, you wouldn't be interested in discussing here in this forum, at least, this topic.

You've got that RIGHT an Straight Kraig.
Furthermore. The simple action lunching (yes, eating something) is political. In the edge of this thinking, but, what i've meant is that one may not be interested in politics, but this same person is 100% of the time DOING politics. The simple fact of saying "i hate politics", "i'm depressed with this conversation (politics)" or worse "i don't practice politics", is POLITIC making itself. The most simple observation is: by letting others (those who don't hate politics) to lead all the political decisions (those which affect their and YOUR life) is to practice their political ways. By omission. That's obvious as saying the sky's blue...
To me, that's what happens in the USA. I firmly DON'T believe that the majority of the american people would vote TWICE in a dumbass (not to say worst things) like George Bush. Only a third part (30% lets say) of the entire population of the USA do vote for president, so, i assume that the ones who would have more intelligence, or at least, would be less 'lobotomized' by the mass media (which is really, really powerful) are not voting for president! It almost gives me the will to become a north-american citizen just to do the right thing there godammit...
Plus, at least for the first time, we all know that Bush didn't win the elections afterall...

Another person remarked also that the first thing the powers to be did was convince people that money was evil. In fact it is a a good method of instituting change.
I understand the reluctance to politics and believe more can be accomplish by social means which Politics always succumbs to. or uses up allot of their resources over.
Politics takes professionals though as skilled as music makers , so donating money is one way to hire one. But any side is more than capable of corruption, cause few have been trained to deal with it

I understand what you mean Kraig,

"Politics takes professionals though as skilled as music makers"... i just soooo happen to know that! I'm a musician...
I didn't meant all of us that are not politicians should take politics, literally, 'to our hands' and become one. That's why we live in a democracy. To have skilled professionals to do that job, in other words: represent us. And, as you have said, what a dangerous job!
What i cannot swallow is: when this person "who-hates-politics-so-much-that-simply-don't-vote-anymore", but, at the sametime, lives under all the benefits of a democracy and yet doesn't believe (not necessarily proselitize for it) in any other political or ideological system, or way of human beings to live toghether for-that-matter, comes up and say "almost proud of" he is out of politics... thats not only no true, from the start, cos it would be a paradoxx... but is the very same hazardous attitude i was pointing out: omission. If i'm wrong on that argument, this person is not REPRESENTED (although, following my theory here, it is always REPRESENTED). At least, this person doesn't cares to be... well, in that case, this person is morally 'out' of the system (which, for me, remains in a paradox in anyway). Even if one comes to me and say: "i don't vote cos i'm an anarchist" is less worse... but if the same don't proselitize for anarchy then, in SOME way other than simply
not voting, i would say "you're not an anarchist, you're just saying you're one...". Not-voting is a part of democracy (at least, in the USA - here, in Brasil, voting it's an obligation. And i'm against that by the way)... it's there! On the whole scheme and structure of it. So, by doing nothing, inside democracy systems, you get precisely that: you do nothing, you let everybody else (the voters) do this 'something' for ya. Whatever that 'something' is that to be... in the case of the USA: to invade other countries reasonlessly, estabilish dictatorships everywhere, promote false-flag operations - keep only that in mind here: 1962 OFFICIAL plan of the USA to make mock-funerals (only a small part of the plan BTW) of it's OWN soldiers to shock the public opinion and be 'morally able' to, finally, invade CUBA. Well, there's so much more... hmmm, to assassin other country leaders, to drop bombs over innocent people (Iraq, Hiroshima, Nagazaki, Afeganistan, Vietnam, and the
list is increasing...) to promote civil wars in poor countries and work for both sides of the same (!) like, selling guns to both sides is enough... and all in the name of what? Democracy? YES, democracy. You Kraig, Aaron, Tristan (i'm assuming you guys're all from the USA) and all the voters AND non-voters of the United States. Meaning: EVERYONE. Of course, the 'kind' of democracy these guys (Bush, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Rice and so on) have in mind is more like the same democracy that lead Hitler into power... or doesn't anyone remember Hitler was VOTED.
That is precisely what i was saying: I know (or, i hope so) that the great majority of the american people does not think like these guys.
I agree when you say that people will also gain something out of the story-that-is-challenging the official one. We'll always have someone to profit with each and every story. The thing here goes further my friend. For instance. I've seen both towers collapse alive, on TV. The news channel i was watching (a brazilian one) had this History university teacher to comment everything when all was still happening. The very first thing he pointed out: "That's an inside job".
What made me so interested in spreading around those videos is that one can watch them without even knowing how to speak, read or understand english, and still figure out the big picture... and that is happening right before my eyes, once i show those videos to various friends here in Brasil. At least, they all agree that was a demolition (pretty obvious that to you Kraig, i assume...). So, the lingering question is:

Why, in the world, the USA authorities still wants people to swallow that was the fire the reason for the WTC collapses? Worse than that, how about WTC7 for-christ-sake!?!

If there wasn't enough temperature levels achieved on the WTC fires to melt steel (and fancy, according to figures of the own official story)... how can the official story be supported in the first place? hmmm i guess that the proper question is why? So, one conclusion leads into another, just by going through the SIMPLE and PLAIN facts themselves.
I will be very impressed if someone convince me that the USA authorities have a really good reason to hide so much from it's own people.(i think thats very serious). Like, let's forget about the big picture for a while (nazi-relations, imperialism politics and etc.). Let's hear a solid argumented story showing us all WHY the WTC collapses weren't demolitions. I will be even more impressed if one comes here and argue: "hey, and if the USA authorities just happens to know already that was a demolition? and they just don't want to tell that yet?"

Anyone?

greetz from Brasil to everyone!

I know that in Belgium, you are fined if you do not vote. Is that true
in Brazil?
I tend to like the idea..
BTW is Augusto Boal still in politics, i saw him a few years ago doing
some of his theater here AT USC. Amazing stuff. they made mince meat of
a so called liberal council person from Santa Monica.
Here elections are on Tuesday and often people are met with long lines.
It should be on weekend. I always noticed before big elections i would
always have tons of work. So one is tired, and it gives people an
optimistic feeling , so they care less. Two weeks after elections
everything dries up. I have noticed this for a long time. But what good
is a democracy it the different in candidates borders on trivial.

I believe in proportion representation based on any and every category
that can be defined as not a sub-category of already existing ones. Yes
if 10% of the population are meth addicts i think they should be
represented such. It would probably have to be determined by computer to
find the people who would fit. All Bureau heads should also be elected.
that is as far as i have thought it thru.

What is needed is more models to choose from and it is one area artist
as creative people can add to the mix. It is much better and more
positive than left or right takes on things. The whole english free
improv thing is so caught up with this it has become mandatory to the
point of fascism. . Few people are that way. Even Chaney doesn't think
his daughter should be thrown in jail for her sexual preference.

If i'm wrong on that argument, this person is not REPRESENTED (although, following my theory here, it is always REPRESENTED). At least, this person doesn't cares to be... well, in that case, this person is morally 'out' of the system (which, for me, remains in a paradox in anyway). Even if one comes to me and say: "i don't vote cos i'm an anarchist" is less worse... but if the same don't proselitize for anarchy then, in SOME way other than simply
> not voting, i would say "you're not an anarchist, you're just saying you're one...". Not-voting is a part of democracy (at least, in the USA - here, in Brasil, voting it's an obligation. And i'm against that by the way)... it's there! On the whole scheme and structure of it. So, by doing nothing, inside democracy systems, you get precisely that: you do nothing, you let everybody else (the voters) do this 'something' for ya. Whatever that 'something' is that to be... in the case of the USA: to invade other countries reasonlessly, estabilish dictatorships everywhere, promote false-flag operations - keep only that in mind here: 1962 OFFICIAL plan of the USA to make mock-funerals (only a small part of the plan BTW) of it's OWN soldiers to shock the public opinion and be 'morally able' to, finally, invade CUBA. Well, there's so much more... hmmm, to assassin other country leaders, to drop bombs over innocent people (Iraq, Hiroshima, Nagazaki, Afeganistan, Vietnam, and the
> list is increasing...) to promote civil wars in poor countries and work for both sides of the same (!) like, selling guns to both sides is enough... and all in the name of what? Democracy? YES, democracy. You Kraig, Aaron, Tristan (i'm assuming you guys're all from the USA) and all the voters AND non-voters of the United States. Meaning: EVERYONE. Of course, the 'kind' of democracy these guys (Bush, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Rice and so on) have in mind is more like the same democracy that lead Hitler into power... or doesn't anyone remember Hitler was VOTED.
> That is precisely what i was saying: I know (or, i hope so) that the great majority of the american people does not think like these guys.
> I agree when you say that people will also gain something out of the story-that-is-challenging the official one. We'll always have someone to profit with each and every story. The thing here goes further my friend. For instance. I've seen both towers collapse alive, on TV. The news channel i was watching (a brazilian one) had this History university teacher to comment everything when all was still happening. The very first thing he pointed out: "That's an inside job".
> What made me so interested in spreading around those videos is that one can watch them without even knowing how to speak, read or understand english, and still figure out the big picture... and that is happening right before my eyes, once i show those videos to various friends here in Brasil. At least, they all agree that was a demolition (pretty obvious that to you Kraig, i assume...). So, the lingering question is:

> I will be very impressed if someone convince me that the USA authorities have a really good reason to hide so much from it's own people.(i think thats very serious). Like, let's forget about the big picture for a while (nazi-relations, imperialism politics and etc.). Let's hear a solid argumented story showing us all WHY the WTC collapses weren't demolitions.

No more than that... so, is not surprising that a smart fella like you (i can see that reading your well balanced arguments and good writting as well) would happen to be on this well-built-structure of mass mind control.

Yes, true.

Here in Brasil, when someone doesn't vote, not only receives a fine bill (elections take place always on weekends, more than that, election day is a holiday. Despite the fact you cannot drink on this day...hihihihi), but also have fewer chances to get a job and have some civil rights anulated too...
Boal is always in politics, at least, inside his theater making (now and then we can see him on the media, and, fancy that: mostly, in the media channels from abroad, outside Brasil). And yes, he's grand... When i am preparing actors and actresses (on the plays i direct musically and/or compose music to), i use various exercises created by Boal. There are some musical exercices too... He claims that the very first memories we have are brought by sounds, from our mama's woumb, listening to her own heart beating... many claim that is the scent, the smell of things. Whatever, both are very powerful.
HAHAHAHAH: "mince meat of a so called liberal council person" this is great. I should have seen that... i can imagine, however.
I only couldn't understand what do you mean by "The whole english free
improv thing"...
The rest i agree...
cheers,

It pleases me that Boal is still active and stirring things up. He is
unknown here outside of progressive theater here which mean he is very
unknown. glad that his work has inspired musical application. i would
like to here about this. I have been quite taken with the theater work
of Eugenio Barba and his ideas of theater anthropology.

> Boal is always in politics, at least, inside his theater making (now and then we can see him on the media, and, fancy that: mostly, in the media channels from abroad, outside Brasil). And yes, he's grand... When i am preparing actors and actresses (on the plays i direct musically and/or compose music to), i use various exercises created by Boal. There are some musical exercices too... He claims that the very first memories we have are brought by sounds, from our mama's woumb, listening to her own heart beating... many claim that is the scent, the smell of things. Whatever, both are very powerful.

If i'm wrong on that argument, this person is not REPRESENTED (although, following my theory here, it is always REPRESENTED). At least, this person doesn't cares to be... well, in that case, this person is morally 'out' of the system (which, for me, remains in a paradox in anyway). Even if one comes to me and say: "i don't vote cos i'm an anarchist" is less worse... but if the same don't proselitize for anarchy then, in SOME way other than
> simply
> > not voting, i would say "you're not an anarchist, you're just saying you're one...". Not-voting is a part of democracy (at least, in the USA - here, in Brasil, voting it's an obligation. And i'm against that by the way)... it's there! On the whole scheme and structure of it. So, by doing nothing, inside democracy systems, you get precisely that: you do nothing, you let everybody else (the voters) do this 'something' for ya. Whatever that 'something' is that to be... in the case of the USA: to invade other countries reasonlessly, estabilish dictatorships everywhere, promote false-flag operations - keep only that in mind here: 1962 OFFICIAL plan of the USA to make mock-funerals (only a small part of the plan BTW) of it's OWN soldiers to shock the public opinion and be 'morally able' to, finally, invade CUBA. Well, there's so much more... hmmm, to assassin other country leaders, to drop bombs over innocent people (Iraq, Hiroshima, Nagazaki, Afeganistan, Vietnam, and the
> > list is increasing...) to promote civil wars in poor countries and work for both sides of the same (!) like, selling guns to both sides is enough... and all in the name of what? Democracy? YES, democracy. You Kraig, Aaron, Tristan (i'm assuming you guys're all from the USA) and all the voters AND non-voters of the United States. Meaning: EVERYONE. Of course, the 'kind' of democracy these guys (Bush, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Rice and so on) have in mind is more like the same democracy that lead Hitler into power... or doesn't anyone remember Hitler was VOTED.
> > That is precisely what i was saying: I know (or, i hope so) that the great majority of the american people does not think like these guys.
> > I agree when you say that people will also gain something out of the story-that-is-challenging the official one. We'll always have someone to profit with each and every story. The thing here goes further my friend. For instance. I've seen both towers collapse alive, on TV. The news channel i was watching (a brazilian one) had this History university teacher to comment everything when all was still happening. The very first thing he pointed out: "That's an inside job".
> > What made me so interested in spreading around those videos is that one can watch them without even knowing how to speak, read or understand english, and still figure out the big picture... and that is happening right before my eyes, once i show those videos to various friends here in Brasil. At least, they all agree that was a demolition (pretty obvious that to you Kraig, i assume...). So, the lingering question is:
> >
> > Why, in the world, the USA authorities still wants people to swallow that was the fire the reason for the WTC collapses? Worse than that, how about WTC7 for-christ-sake!?!
> >
> > If there wasn't enough temperature levels achieved on the WTC fires to melt steel (and fancy, according to figures of the own official story)... how can the official story be supported in the first place? hmmm i guess that the proper question is why? So, one conclusion leads into another, just by going through the SIMPLE and PLAIN facts themselves.
> > I will be very impressed if someone convince me that the USA authorities have a really good reason to hide so much from it's own people.(i think thats very serious). Like, let's forget about the big picture for a while (nazi-relations, imperialism politics and etc.). Let's hear a solid argumented story showing us all WHY the WTC collapses weren't demolitions. I will be even more impressed if one comes here and argue: "hey, and if the USA authorities just happens to know already that was a demolition? and they just don't want to tell that yet?"

In the edge of this thinking, but, what i've meant is that one may not be interested in politics, but this same person is 100% of the time DOING politics. The simple fact of saying "i hate politics", "i'm depressed with this conversation (politics)" or worse "i don't practice politics", is POLITIC making itself.

Yes, Barba is great!

I use some exercices from his book too...
Here, not everyone knows him too (he have his 'room' though) ... i guess he have more prestige in Europe, especially France.
Are you an actor, or director?

like to here about this. I have been quite taken with the theater work
of Eugenio Barba and his ideas of theater anthropology.

So, by doing nothing, inside democracy systems, you get precisely that: you do nothing, you let everybody else (the voters) do this 'something' for ya. Whatever that 'something' is that to be... in the case of the USA: to invade other countries reasonlessly, estabilish dictatorships everywhere, promote false-flag operations - keep only that in mind here: 1962 OFFICIAL plan of the USA to make mock-funerals (only a small part of the plan BTW) of it's OWN soldiers to shock the public opinion and be 'morally able' to, finally, invade CUBA. Well, there's so much more... hmmm, to assassin other country leaders, to drop bombs over innocent people (Iraq, Hiroshima, Nagazaki, Afeganistan, Vietnam, and
the

YES, democracy. You Kraig, Aaron, Tristan (i'm assuming you guys're all from the USA) and all the voters AND non-voters of the United States. Meaning: EVERYONE. Of course, the 'kind' of democracy these guys (Bush, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Rice and so on) have in mind is more like the same democracy that lead Hitler into power... or doesn't anyone remember Hitler was VOTED.

The thing here goes further my friend. For instance. I've seen both towers collapse alive, on TV. The news channel i was watching (a brazilian one) had this History university teacher to comment everything when all was still happening. The very first thing he pointed out: "That's an inside job".

In the edge of this thinking, but, what i've meant is that one may not be interested in politics, but this same person is 100% of the time DOING politics. The simple fact of saying "i hate politics", "i'm depressed with this conversation (politics)" or worse "i don't practice politics", is POLITIC making itself. The most simple observation is: by letting others (those who don't hate politics) to lead all the political decisions (those which affect their and YOUR life) is to practice their political ways. By omission. That's obvious as saying the sky's blue...

Only a third part (30% lets say) of the entire population of the USA do vote for president, so, i assume that the ones who would have more intelligence, or at least, would be less 'lobotomized' by the mass media (which is really, really powerful) are not voting for president! It almost gives me the will to become a north-american citizen just to do the right thing there godammit...

Since my 8, 9 years old, i'm aware of that. No kidding. And, being honest and respectful with you now: when you say " I don't know how to fit that into my world-view", you show me that kind of Naivety... like: one, in order to have clear view of things and formulate its own opinion, must know that he cannot hold opinions or any pre-conceived world-views for so long...

No more than that... so, is not surprising that a smart fella like you (i can see that reading your well balanced arguments and good writting as well) would happen to be on this well-built-structure of mass mind control.

I have worked in Silent films ( 10 years) , then with shadow
puppets/theater (another 10) .
But it was Partch that brought about my interest in doing both and see
even Barba work as a direct parallel but coming from the theater
background as opposed to Partch starting with music.
But would you mind giving a better idea of exactly what you are doing
there, and how it parallels others there or not. I am sure others beside
myself would be interested.

Well, there's so much more... hmmm, to assassin other country leaders, to drop bombs over innocent people (Iraq, Hiroshima, Nagazaki, Afeganistan, Vietnam, and
> the
> > > list is increasing...) to promote civil wars in poor countries and work for both sides of the same (!) like, selling guns to both sides is enough... and all in the name of what? Democracy? YES, democracy. You Kraig, Aaron, Tristan (i'm assuming you guys're all from the USA) and all the voters AND non-voters of the United States. Meaning: EVERYONE. Of course, the 'kind' of democracy these guys (Bush, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Rice and so on) have in mind is more like the same democracy that lead Hitler into power... or doesn't anyone remember Hitler was VOTED.

The thing here goes further my friend. For instance. I've seen both towers collapse alive, on TV. The news channel i was watching (a brazilian one) had this History university teacher to comment everything when all was still happening. The very first thing he pointed out: "That's an inside job".

Nice!

I love Bali shadow puppeteers, and all its region's variants. Unfortunately, i don't know who's Partch...
Anyway, i don't mind giving you a better idea of exactly what i do from Barba's and Boal's theatre into music. If you first show me how does Partch works with it, i'll be glad to reply then. Only, i'll do it tomorrow or in the day next tomorrow, cos now i'll drop myself onto bed... You know, this reply will be pretty extense...
Till next.

puppets/theater (another 10) .
But it was Partch that brought about my interest in doing both and see
even Barba work as a direct parallel but coming from the theater
background as opposed to Partch starting with music.
But would you mind giving a better idea of exactly what you are doing
there, and how it parallels others there or not. I am sure others beside
myself would be interested.

And yes, he's grand... When i am preparing actors and actresses (on the plays i direct musically and/or compose music to), i use various exercises created by Boal. There are some musical exercices too... He claims that the very first memories we have are brought by sounds, from our mama's woumb, listening to her own heart beating... many claim that is the scent, the smell of things. Whatever, both are very powerful.

If i'm wrong on that argument, this person is not REPRESENTED (although, following my theory here, it is always REPRESENTED). At least, this person doesn't cares to be... well, in that case, this person is morally 'out' of the system (which, for me, remains in a paradox in anyway).

So, by doing nothing, inside democracy systems, you get precisely that: you do nothing, you let everybody else (the voters) do this 'something' for ya.

When you think about it, our votes are illusions. The voting system itself is flawed, because it's not approval voting, as Brad Lehman has pointed out to me; and money buys corporate media attention, which in effect limits what people see and 'decides' ahead of time who the 'real candidates' are. For instance, I would vote Kucinich, who has honest integrity, and questions 9/11, too, publicly, but he would never win, because the media has already decided in the headlines it's 'Barack vs. Hillary' on the Democratic side. It's all a sick giant corporate game, and I *don't* like the idea of being forced to play. So, I'm ok in a sense with the current voter malaise--I think it's a response, naturally, to the intuited sense that the decks are stacked against true democracy.

If enough were 'forced' to vote for Kucinich, i think it would have an effect. one could always write in who you chose. I like for the way people are disencouraged by other means that i mentioned. But at least it should be moved to a weekend or the better idea of it being a holiday, a paid one too!

And yes, he's grand... When i am preparing actors and actresses (on the plays i direct musically and/or compose music to), i use various exercises created by Boal. There are some musical exercices too... He claims that the very first memories we have are brought by sounds, from our mama's woumb, listening to her own heart beating... many claim that is the scent, the smell of things.

If i'm wrong on that argument, this person is not REPRESENTED (although, following my theory here, it is always REPRESENTED). At least, this person doesn't cares to be... well, in that case, this person is morally 'out' of the system (which, for me, remains in a paradox in anyway).

And i'm against that by the way)... it's there! On the whole scheme and structure of it. So, by doing nothing, inside democracy systems, you get precisely that: you do nothing, you let everybody else (the voters) do this 'something' for ya. Whatever that 'something' is that to be... in the case of the USA: to invade other countries reasonlessly, estabilish dictatorships everywhere, promote false-flag operations - keep only that in mind here: 1962 OFFICIAL plan of the USA to make mock-funerals (only a small part of the plan BTW) of it's OWN soldiers to shock the public opinion and be 'morally able' to, finally, invade CUBA. Well, there's so much more... hmmm, to assassin other country leaders, to drop bombs over innocent people (Iraq, Hiroshima, Nagazaki, Afeganistan, Vietnam, and
> > the
> > > > list is increasing...) to promote civil wars in poor countries and work for both sides of the same (!) like, selling guns to both sides is enough... and all in the name of what? Democracy? YES, democracy. You Kraig, Aaron, Tristan (i'm assuming you guys're all from the USA) and all the voters AND non-voters of the United States. Meaning: EVERYONE. Of course, the 'kind' of democracy these guys (Bush, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Rice and so on) have in mind is more like the same democracy that lead Hitler into power... or doesn't anyone remember Hitler was VOTED.

The thing here goes further my friend. For instance. I've seen both towers collapse alive, on TV. The news channel i was watching (a brazilian one) had this History university teacher to comment everything when all was still happening. The very first thing he pointed out: "That's an inside job".

Like, let's forget about the big picture for a while (nazi-relations, imperialism politics and etc.). Let's hear a solid argumented story showing us all WHY the WTC collapses weren't demolitions. I will be even more impressed if one comes here and argue: "hey, and if the USA authorities just happens to know already that was a demolition? and they just don't want to tell that yet?"

In the edge of this thinking, but, what i've meant is that one may not be interested in politics, but this same person is 100% of the time DOING politics. The simple fact of saying "i hate politics", "i'm depressed with this conversation (politics)" or worse "i don't practice politics", is POLITIC making itself. The most simple observation is: by letting others (those who don't hate politics) to lead all the political decisions (those which affect their and YOUR life) is to practice their political ways. By omission. That's obvious as saying the sky's blue...

But, how 'in the world' american students, from all ages and classes (economically) don't know how to differ which country Buenos Aires capitol is???? Do you know?

Since my 8, 9 years old, i'm aware of that. No kidding. And, being honest and respectful with you now: when you say " I don't know how to fit that into my world-view", you show me that kind of Naivety... like: one, in order to have clear view of things and formulate its own opinion, must know that he cannot hold opinions or any pre-conceived world-views for so long... Thats 'ontological' (means: you cannot change your mind fixed in a cristalized view-of-things)

That is a good question... for EVERY american by the way (even those who challenges the official story in this case...).

No more than that... so, is not surprising that a smart fella like you (i can see that reading your well balanced arguments and good writting as well) would happen to be on this well-built-structure of mass mind control.
