The 9/11 Truth Revolution
The 9/11 Truth Revolution
by Kevin Barrett, Muslim-Jewish-Christian Alliance for 9/11 Truth: http://mujca.com
“It feels like you and I have started the revolution and God bless America.” Charlie Sheen
As 9/11 truth spreads, we are facing a revolution.
A revolution happens when the many at the bottom get together and overthrow the few at the top. At least that’s the theory. In practice, it isn’t quite that simple. The American Revolution was led by wealthy, well-educated deists, many of them slaveholders. The French Revolution involved the hungry masses, but the instigators were businesspeople, not street people. The Russian Revolution was led by a self-proclaimed vanguard. The anti-imperial revolutions that ended European colonization 50 years ago were led by the colonies’ Euro-educated elites.
Today, thanks to the rapidly-spreading brushfire of 9/11 truth, we are on the cusp of a new kind of revolution—a real one this time, a revolution from below. As conservative columnist Paul Craig Roberts writes, “the real story is what the people are saying about 9/11.” What Roberts means is that the powerful few and the institutions they control—the government, the corporations, the armed forces, the major political parties, the foundation-funded pseudo-left, the universities, the mass media, Hollywood—have imposed near-total silence on the issue of what really happened on September 11th, 2001. Worse, most of them have cranked out endless tape-loops of mind-numbing propaganda aimed at reinforcing the official Big Lie. And yet the people are speaking out loud and clear: 9/11 was an inside job—an act of high treason and mass murder by our own leaders.
In the latest CNN poll, over 80% of respondents agreed with Charlie Sheen that the official story of 9/11 is a cover-up. Earlier polls showed that half the citizens of New York, the city that was so brutally attacked, and Atlanta, the biggest city in the nation’s most conservative region, believe their leaders guilty of high treason and conspiracy to mass-murder.
Despite the best efforts of the treasonous billionaires who control all of our major institutions, the popular groundswell for 9/11 truth is unstoppable. The people have refused to be cowed into silence by inane fear-mongering and cowardly name-calling. All across the nation people are rising up and talking truth. “Have you seen Loose Change yet?” “That Charlie Sheen is amazing—how could CNN let him say that?” “You’ve got to read The New Pearl Harbor—here’s a copy, pass it on.” People are burning hundreds of DVDs and passing them to their friends, who are burning hundreds more. If the video-makers were getting full royalties on every copy, they’d be richer than self-confessed WTC demolisher and billionaire insurance-fraudster Larry Silverstein.
The source of this revolution is the courage and intelligence of the people. The neoconservatives, who underestimate the intelligence of other people almost as much as they overestimate their own, apparently thought that their monopoly media could coerce the poor dumb masses into lapping up outrageous lies indefinitely. What they didn’t realize was that new communications technologies, in the hands of smart, brave people, can spread the truth with absolutely no help from traditional top-down, one-to-many media systems.
The truth is that people in power are no smarter than the rest of us. They are just greedier. As the French saying goes, “plus haut qu’il mont, plus que se voit son cul” – the higher up he climbs, the more you can see his ass.
This is a moral revolution by ordinary decent folks against the greed-heads who will stop at nothing—not even the mass murder of their own countrymen in the service of a genocidal Big Lie—to gain even more wealth and power.
It is a revolution from below at every level, even in government itself. Dozens of honest agents and bureaucrats, stymied by their treasonous superiors, have spoken out. Colleen Rowley and the other Minneapolis FBI agents have made it abundantly clear that Dave Frasca, the mole and former head of the FBI’s Radical Fundamentalism Unit, intentionally blocked their most intensive efforts to call attention to the “hijacking plot” before it happened. Yet the traitor and mass-murderer Frasca, who stymied not only the Minneapolis agents, but also the Phoenix FBI agents and others, was promoted after 9/11! The many thousands of honest agents in the FBI, disgusted with their superiors’ complicity in high treason and mass murder, are a key part of our revolution from below, and will surely be dealing with the likes of Frasca one way or another.
It is a revolution from below in journalism as well as government. First it was the complete outsiders, the devil-may-care small-time bloggers, the folks at the very bottom of the journalistic food chain. (Note that some of these ultra-outsider bloggers, such as From the Wilderness and Global Research, have been outperforming the “real journalists” on key issues for years.) The outsider bloggers’ incessant agitation put 9/11 truth on the radar screen of the more respectable bloggers and the occasional honest academic. When the highly respected David Griffin’s The New Pearl Harbor came out, compiling and validating the bloggers’ research, low-level people at C-Span began urging their company to report “the other side of the 9/11 story.” The result was the nationwide broadcast of Griffin’s landmark University of Wisconsin talk 9/11 and American Empire last year. Now it appears that the actual working journalists at CNN have followed their C-Span colleagues away from their billionaire bosses’ fantasy land and back toward reality-based journalism, by giving Charlie Sheen a national platform for truth-speaking.
It is a revolution from below in religious communities too. More than a few independent-minded Jews have made major contributions to the 9/11 truth movement, while increasing numbers of evangelical Christians are waking up to 9/11 truth, as the many e-mails we get from them at MUJCA-NET attest. While the self-appointed leaders and Sunday morning money-leeches spew their hatemongering rhetoric at the alleged-WTC-destroying Muslim hordes, whispers are spreading among their flocks: “Wait a minute—look at WTC-7 collapsing, and Silverstein confessing. How the hell did Osama do that?” And in the American Muslim community, the silent majority has always known it was an inside job—but the academics, self-appointed leaders and spokespeople, perfect examples of the Qur’an-derided munafiqeen (hypocrites) who say whatever makes their lives easier, have managed to obscure that fact with their ongoing nicey-nice drivel that implicitly or explicitly accepts the 9/11 Big Lie. After the 9/11 truth revolution, I hope every one of these “leaders” will resign from their cushy positions and look for real work. Indeed, they might be better advised to crawl into a hole somewhere, for the silent contempt in which they are now held by most of their co-religionists will surely grow less silent.
The 9/11truth revolution from below will overthrow a good part of the American power structure. Billionaires will have their fortunes confiscated and spend the rest of their lives in prison. Most, perhaps all of the current administration will be tried and, presumably, either hanged or given some kind of truth-for-mercy deal. Its supporters throughout the judicial and legislative branches will be forced to resign. The CIA and other covert-op apparatuses will be broken into a million pieces and scattered to the four winds, finishing the job that JFK was unable to start. The media monopoly that enabled the 9/11 cover-up will be shattered into hundreds of fragments as the mother of all trust-busting eras commences. The uniformed military, and especially the Pentagon, will be purged of neocon moles, as the venerable institution of the firing squad is revived. Every last member of Skull and Bones, starting with the whole Bush crime family, will be hunted down, jailed, and forced to recite his entire sexual history to his cellmates while lying on the floor of the prison shower. And after the troops have pulled out, Rumsfeld, Perle and Feith will be air-dropped into Fallujah as a demonstration of how an undermanned invasion-of-three can be welcomed by adoring crowds strewing flowers at their feet.
Ultimately, though, the 9/11 truth revolution is not about vengeance—it’s about hope. The story of the triumph of the 9/11 truth movement, against such apparently insurmountable odds, is a story of ordinary people’s heroism, a veritable Frank Capra movie for the information age.
And though this revolution is an American movie, with a cast of thousands of heroes and Charlie Sheen doing an Oscar-worthy job in Best Supporting Role, it’s going to be a worldwide hit. You thought they liked Michael Moore’s Fahrenheit 911 at Cannes? Wait till you see the world’s reaction to 9/11 Truth: The Reality. Other nations used to admire certain things about America—like our relative freedom, integrity, and imperviousness to corruption—and this movie will bring it all back, and then some. Better yet, this is the one American film that could really rock the Casbah in the Arab world. Want to lead the region toward freedom and democracy? Try setting an example. Overthrow your own corrupt leaders, and maybe the Arabs will overthrow theirs. And if you’re tired of being hated by Muslims, what better way to re-establish friendship than by exploding the 9/11 blood libel and calling off the Big-Lie-triggered war on Islam?
The global ramifications of the 9/11 truth revolution go way beyond ending the ersatz “clash of civilizations” manufactured by the fake-terror-mongers. Our American revolution from below will lead a cascading revolution around the world, as the globalist elites are jailed, trust-busted, and discredited, and corrupt leaders are overthrown like rows of rotten dominoes. In the place of the current top-heavy structure of world finance and governance, this worldwide bottom-up revolution will create a truly democratic, populist order to match the many-to-many communications revolution of the information age. This is the “Planetization Revolution” that was foreseen by de Chardin—a sort of “people’s globalization” that will unite the planet freely and democratically, rather than under murderous globalist tyranny. For details, see the revolutionary manifesto “Declaration of Union” at: http://www.planetization.org/declarationofunion.htm
The checks and balances on abusive power developed in the USA and elsewhere will be re-instituted and fine-tuned, as the power structure devolves toward a bottom-up rather than top-down decision-making model. People will seize control over their own lives, with individuals, families and local communities—not nation states, banks or corporations—making the decisions. This model of governance, as proposed by theologian and 9/11 truth supporter John Cobb, is one of “communities of communities of communities.” It will be realized after the 9/11-truth-triggered annihilation of the top-heavy institutions, and wealth-and-power-heavy individuals and families, that currently run the world.
9/11 truth offers the ordinary person of good will an unprecedented opportunity to change the world for the better. So what are you waiting for? Get out there and spread the word. When the time is ripe—and it is ripening fast—we will have the people, and the soul-power, to take to the streets.

I'm a bit cautious about the world 'intentional'. If you mean folks who go off to the country with a vision, then you're talking about a fringe phenomenon, regardless of how heady it may feel when you're in such an enivironment.
The real breakthrough will be when we can turn ordinary garden-variety communities / neighborhoods into intentional communities—i.e., communities where the intention of We the People is manifest.
Here's a streaming audio archive of a great recent interview with David Ray Griffin on the KPFA San Francisco program "Guns and Butter" for 3/29/06:
http://www.kpfa.org/archives/index.php?arch=13333
"Explosive Testimony: The 911 Oral Histories" with author and theologian, Dr. David Ray Griffin. As the result of a lawsuit brought by the New York Times and several families of 911 victims, the New York Court of Appeals ordered the city to release hundreds of oral histories of 911 witnesses. These witness testimonies were originally gathered shortly after September 11th on the order of Thomas Von Essen, the City Fire Commissioner, who said he wanted to preserve these accounts before they became reshaped by a collective memory. In these oral histories, Firefighters and Emergency Medical Workers recount their experiences of that day.
Venezuelan Government To Launch International 9/11 Investigation

Truth crusaders Walter and Rodriguez to appear on Hugo Chavez's weekly TV broadcast
http://www.prisonplanet.com/index.html Paul Joseph Watson & Alex Jones/Prison Planet.com | March 31 2006
Billionaire philanthropist Jimmy Walter and WTC survivor William Rodriguez this week embarked on a groundbreaking trip to Caracas Venezuela in which they met with with the President of the Assembly and will soon meet with Venezuelan President himself Hugo Chavez in anticipation of an official Venezuelan government investigation into 9/11.
Rodriguez was the last survivor pulled from the rubble of the north tower of the WTC, and was responsible for all stairwells within the tower. Rodriguez represented family members of 9/11 victims and testified to the 9/11 Commission that bombs were in the north tower but his statements were completely omitted from the official record.
Jimmy Walter has been at the forefront of a world tour to raise awareness about 9/11 and has still yet to receive any response to his http://reopen911.org/Contest.htm million dollar challenge in which he offers a $1 million reward for proof that the trade towers' steel structure was broken apart without explosives.
Rodriguez said that he was told an FBI agent had asked the hotel him and Walter were staying in turn over a list of names of residents. Upon hearing this, the National Assembly provided armed military protection for the entirety of the trip. In addition, Walters said that CIA agents were seen surveilling the beach on which he and Rodriguez had handed out free DVD's a day earlier.
The US government attempted to sabotage the trip by putting Rodriguez, who has been decorated at the White House itself, and Walter on a no fly list.
Rodriguez (pictured above) and Walter are educating top Venezuelan officials on the evidence that 9/11 was a self-inflicted wound carried out by the military-industrial complex. They have also appeared on every Venezuelan television and radio station both private and state owned and have given huge presentations to major universities.
Upon visiting, Rodriguez said that the President of the Assembly, Nicolas Maduro's home was brimming with books, videos and documents about the 9/11 cover-up. Maduro, Venezuela's top legislator, intoned that he was ready to create an international investigative committee, looking into the "international crime scene" that is 9/11 and that this would be structured via Hugo Chavez's government.
Rodriguez and Walter are also set to appear on Hugo Chavez's weekly broadcast 'Alo Presidente' - which is often subsequently the source of major international headlines. If there is no coverage of this event then we know for sure that a blackout order is in place.
Rodriguez and Walter offered their full support for http://www.prisonplanet.com/articles/march2006/200306charliesheen.htm Charlie Sheen's recent public stance on 9/11 and were heartened by his efforts. The potential of a government level inquiry endorsed by Hugo Chavez dovetails with Sheen's call for an independent investigation to be carried out by political foreign nationals.
Though the establishment media will no doubt seek to demonize Chavez as a militant with an axe to grind, this is an exciting development and the next step on the road to a genuine investigation that will seek to uncover the truth rather than hide skeletons and whitewash as was witnessed with the staged Kean committee.

Ed Asner interview - audio:
http://mp3.rbnlive.com/Greg06.html
Tue., March 28, 2006
Greg was joined in the first hour with respected actor and human rights
activist, Ed Asner, and Bob Dumas, who is trying to get to the truth about
the POW scandal and why our government has lied about GI's being "Missing
and Presumed Dead" when many are still alive. Listen to Asner as he also
spoke about seeking the truth behind 9/11 and the Iraqi War, as well as
supporting recent statements made by Charlie Sheen that the government is
lying about 9/11.
In the second hour, Greg talked with Jamie Kelso, an activist seeking fair
immigration policies around the world and in the United States.
When the highly respected David Griffin’s The New Pearl Harbor came out, compiling and validating the bloggers’ research, low-level people at C-Span began urging their company to report “the other side of the 9/11 story.”
David Griffin 'validated' research? He did nothing of the kind. He just repeated (without verifying) other peoples 'findings'. I think the fact that this is considered 'validation' in the 9/11 'Truth' community just goes to show how lame it is. Their logic is, David Ray Griffin sounds like an impressive person, so if he says these things (which others have said but we didn't really know whether to believe them or not) then I guess they must be true. Wow, such a sound technique for finding the truth!
Hi TruthCrtic,
You make cheap shots, without taking any position yourself. Not a very useful or even meaningful contribution.
The evidence for 911 being an inside job is overwhelming. In math terms, one would say the proposition is 'overdetermined', that is it can be established using any of several pieces of evidence without the others.
Griffin's contribution is simply that he is able to reach new audiences with information they would otherwise not have looked at. In the minds of such audiences his reputation might be seen as a 'validation' of these earlier research results, although 'legitimization' would probably be a more apt word.
For those of us who are already aware of the evidence, Griffin is not 'validating', or legitimizing, he is simply dissemenating. You are just playing with words, using sophistry, to make non-points. I'm not sure who you think you're impressing.

Truth Critic was right on the money .. the so-called "9/11 Truth Movement is rooted in fantasy and politics and ignores the actual record, engineering and science. They could make a far better contribution if they focused on why the Bush Administration failed to take the proper precautions to safeguard aircraft cockpits or to find the Al Qaeda members that they knew to be within the United States. Instead they waste their time and energy following a theologian (who I guess thinks he has a direct line with God and thus knows only the real truth)claiming that buildings don't fall when subjected to a jet fuel fire. You all saw I-580 collapse last Sunday .. that was a gasoline fire with a much smaller fuel load than a fully loaded jet liner!
