BBC documentary on WTC 7 announces death of Barry Jennings

Barry Jennings, a former New York Housing Authority Emergency Coordinator and key 9/11 witness, has died of undisclosed causes at the age of 53.
Barry Jennings is most famously known for his eyewitness accounts of what happened in World Trade Center 7 (WTC7), another large building that fell on the World Trade Center site that was not hit by an airplane. Jennings claims that he heard explosions while in the building, furthering conspiracy theories that there were bombs and planned implosions at the site.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) recently released a report and video detailing the collapse of WTC7, using architectural data, witness accounts, computer models and physical laws to conclude that WTC7 collapsed because of fire, not explosions.
Some alternative media sources like infowars.com see Barry Jennings’ mysterious death as even more reason to believe the events of September 11, 2001 were planned and orchestrated by the United States government. Please read both the Infowars account of the WTC7 collapse and the NIST assessment.

The Taliban and the myth of ‘Al Qaeda’

THE TALIBAN AND THE MYTH OF ‘AL QAEDA’. laatan.blogspot
Recently the Taliban have sought to instigate talks that may lead to a settlement in Afghanistan which the US and their allies now concede is unwinable. Part of the concessions the Taliban are willing to make are to disassociate themselves from ‘al Qaeda’. A reader has asked me to comment on this. Here is my response. Read the rest of this entry »

Garzón, Rubalcaba y la crisis

Libertad Digital

Lo de Garzón y Rubalcaba no es normal. Debe de ser que la crisis económica ha llegado ya también al Ministerio de Interior, porque, si no, es imposible justificar semejante tufillo a película de bajo presupuesto.

Beware an October surprise from “bin Laden”

Beware an October surprise from bin Laden

 

Anyone following closely the “war on terror” will automatically replace the code words “bin laden” with the modern shadow state meaning “inside job”. There are those who say this in private but deny it public. There has been much speculation that Obama will not be allowed to come to power. This article and others like it that appear in the mainstream media prepare the the way for the continuity of government act to come into full effect. If the election is delayed, it would be a major victory for the forces behind the coup.

Entretien avec un dissident français contraint à l’exil

Posted by seumasach on October 13, 2008

 

 

La fermeture des bureaux français du Réseau Voltaire et l’exil de son président suscitent bien des interrogations. Certains commentateurs y ont vu la fin d’une aventure ; d’autres au contraire, observant que ces décisions n’ont pas diminué la combativité du Réseau, ont essayé de savoir ce qui les avait motivées. Thierry Meyssan s’en explique ici. Il décrit une France, placée sous le contrôle des services états-uniens, où une opinion publique anesthésiée n’a pas conscience du contrôle politique. À ses yeux, il y avait péril en la demeure et la menace qui l’a contraint à partir ne tardera pas à s’exercer sur d’autres.
