The Jackass Returns
by Sander Hicks
You know the world is really coming to an end when the New York Post lets me, a leading 9/11 Truther, effectively review, and pan, the new anti-Truther documentary, National Geographic Channel's "9/11: Science and Conspiracy." But that's what happened today. Read it online, or see my scan of the print piece. My jaw is still on the floor.

Let's start with the documentary itself. "Science and Conspiracy" is fundamentally-misconceived, half-hearted, poorly-planned, slapped together, badly written, mis-cast, and self-defeating. It contains four scientific "experiments" pulled off in the New Mexico desert by a bunch of pyrotechnic geeks, the Energetic Materials Research and Testing Center (EMRTC).

Should we gloss over EMRTC's ties to Homeland Security and FEMA? Executive Dennis Hunter is their liaison to defense contractor SAIC. (And yes, that SAIC, the one where right-wing anthrax suspect Steven Hatfill labored away alongside Jerry Hauer, who later became Giuliani's mysterious "bioterror expert".) On camera, EMRTC come off as hapless and inept. They can't get their rocket to hit the broad side of a concrete board structure. When it does, it teaches us nothing about what hit the Pentagon, anyway.
 
Appropriately enough, EMRTC then blow up the concrete board structure with a powerful bomb they make, to show what a "missile" at the Pentagon might have done (if that missile was a bomb inside a concrete board box in the New Mexico desert. Get it? No?) EMRTC then do "tests" with materials that are purported to be sort-of World Trade Center-related, but they don't use the right stuff here either.

Today's Story in the New York Post Finally Gives Fair Play to 9/11 Truth, What a Big Change from 2005.


To disprove that nano-thermite (i.e. "super thermite") could have been used in the destruction of the World Trade Center, they choose to use the much milder plain thermite. They light it on fire and try to damage a steel pillar. When the pillar is still standing, the doc cuts to 9/11 truth leaders like Richard Gage who says something like "this experiment was assinine. What a waste of time."

I love this part: the arrogant, British sounding female narrator then intones, "Instead of accepting the facts presented by experts, truthers continue their search for ellusive answers." But this documentary never presents any controlled demolition "experts." They promised to interview Chemist Kevin Ryan, a real scientist who was fired for standing up against the NIST cover-up at Underwriters Laboratories in 2004. But the Ryan interview never happened. And Ryan recently wrote at 911 Blogger about Brent Blanchard, the documentary's one controlled demolition "expert":

        As a photographer for Implosion World, Blanchard is often consulted for these tabloid programs when a “demolition expert” is needed. But no evidence has ever been given that the real experts allow photographers to plan and implement their high-rise demolitions. Hopefully, the NG Channel will feature interviews with experts who actually have planned and implemented such operations, like Danny Jowenko, who stated that WTC 7 was a demolition.

Four years ago, I was attacked in the NY Post for writing "Big Wedding" and opening a fair-trade coffeehouse that dared discuss taboo topics. I was labeled "THE 9/11 JAVA JACKASS" in a big headline across the page. But today, I was given a generous amount of space to denounce the 9/11 cover-up. Rupert Murdoch owns BOTH the New York Post and the National Geographic Channel. Could it be that he wants to support 9/11 Truth a bit now, as an experiment in destabilizing Obama? After all, Obama's recent denunciations of 9/11 Truth have gone beyond Bush's. Obama is closer to Wall Street and is such a media darling, he brazenly attended Bilderberg during the campaign.

Well, I'm still trying to make sense of the Post's about-face today on 9/11. What does it mean? Is the opposition running out of steam?

Do they know? At this point they must: We have real science on our side.
 
We have real red nano-thermite chips found in four out of four samples tested. We have the peer-reviewed paper by real scientists like Kevin Ryan, Stephen Jones, Niels Harrit, et. al. The paper that presents proof of nano-thermite is like a 500 lb. monster in the room. It's almost running in between the lines of the article in today's Post. I spoke about the Harrit paper often with the reporter, but she couldn't fit it in. It's clear that the doc. Producers were apprised of nano-thermite. But the Niels Harrit evidence is never cited. That would be too real.

When you can't win with science, you chose pseudo-science.

like your piece but screw science
written by magpie, August 29, 2009
Nice article. Too bad, as Richard Gage put it, the "science" from Nat Geo was "assinine." I have a different approach...it's been said and done, but not with the right emphasis. I'll give you a sample shortly.

You don't need science to prove 9-11 was an inside job. Common sense is enough, and the only reason it hasn't been enough to put the Bush Administration and the others on trial for mass murder, treason and anything else that fits, is because so-called "experts" are out there telling the masses the "truthers" are all weirdos and 9-11 happened just like the 9-11 Commission said so in their report. So it's time to take the gloves off and fight dirty, too, except it would only be dirty because there is no defense for the simple truth. On the contrary, if you put experts out there with their data, their charts, graphs and whatnot, the criminals will put their "experts" out there with the contrary information, just like they've been doing. Try the following instead:

1) Only absolute morons would believe well built, over-designed tall buildings can be nocked to the ground completely by flying a big airplane into it. It may be possible for partial collapse to happen, but ONLY FROM THE POINT OF IMPACT UP...DAMN IT! Therefore, global collapse of the three WTC high rise buildings happened because explosives were used throughout all three buildings. This means the 9-11 Commission, the Bush Administration and all contributors to the real conspiracy and coverup are criminals.

2) THERE IS NO POSSIBLE WAY THE WTC BUILDINGS WOULD FALL AT NEAR(and for part of the time, actual)FREE FALL SPEED, NOT WITHOUT USING EXPLOSIVES TO BLOW THE LOWER PORTIONS OUT OF THE WAY OF THE FALLING PORTIONS, which would make it possible for the falling portions of the building to achieve "near" free fall speed. The mere idea that people are expected to believe the "official" story when this one fact alone proves that story is a big lie is, well...I can't think of a low-enough word to use to describe such misuse of intelligence. This point proves the "official" story is pure bullshit, and also proves the majority of Americans have invested way too much trust in our leaders...they must have, otherwise there is no way sane, educated people would believe such crap just because the people they voted for told them to. It's disgraceful, at best.

3)Despite all the would-be "debunkers" on blogs, the phony television documentaries (like the one you covered) and the current president stating, something like, "the crimes of 9-11 were not opinions for debate but facts that call for actions," our government has done nothing legitimate to satisfy the victims of 9-11 and the growing numbers of real patriots in the truth movement...NOTHING, that is, besides do everything they can to block the truth from coming out. This means the real conspiracy is huge, it's real evil and it must be dealt with properly. We start by demanding full release of every security camera that may have shown what happened at the Pentagon. To this date only tiny fragments from one or two cameras have been shown...if they say "no," THEN THAT WOULD MEAN THEY"RE GUILITY...DAMN IT! Don't complicate the simple truth, okay? If they can't bring forth the evidence that would support their story then they're guilty. It really is that simple.

4) All owners of Mainstream media are criminals, part of the real conspiracy. They need to explain why they haven't been investigating and reporting on the ENORMOUS turmoil going on across America and around the globe as more and more people are learning the real truth about 9-11. Hit them right in the gut with this: "You people better start talking or when the shit hits the fan and you still support the official story, you better hope the truthers get eliminated because if we win all of you will be put on trial after the dust settles for conspiracy, murder and treason, which carries the death penalty."

5) The pentagon was not hit by a jetliner...period. This portion of the "offical" story is flat out ridiculous, and how it ever became believable is beyond me...? Well, I know how it became believable, by the media, the planted witnesses and goverment officals lying their asses off, and because the public trusted them, they bought it. Yet it is still amazing that so many grown adults would accept such a crock of shit...??? If not coached, young chilren would tell you the original hole the plane was supposed to have made was TOO DAMNED SMALL for a jetliner...they would tell you something else made the hole. Use something like this: "WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE THAT BELIEVE SUCH STUPID SHIT?"

6) There are several videos of a plane hitting one of the twin towers, showing different angles. Many of those videos have been examined and some were found to be tampered with, (by experts, but nonetheless there are qualified testimonies available, as you likely know), and for most people those videos represent proof that the "official" story must be true. That is the public's "smoking gun"...they have that infamous television coverage of one of the planes. But, mainstream journalists NEVER reported the explosions that were seen, heard and photographed by dozens of people, and that was also proof, except it was REAL PROOF IN REAL TIME AND IT HAPPENED LIVE IN THE REAL WORLD, not on some video editor's computer. I saw/heard two journalists report on explosions during their live coverage of the WTC site, but nothing after the first few hours and I've heard nothing about the explosives they heard/felt from the two journalists since.

I could go on and on. My point is complete bullshit is being sold to the public by the same people the public believes they can trust. THIS IS MASSIVE BAMBOOZLING...THIS IS THE WORST KIND OF BETRAYAL THERE IS...and it's happening right now to all of us. That's the real conspiracy, and it's not mysterious at all. In fact, it's so childishly stupid it's actually hard to imagine college graduates did the planning and other highly trained "experts" were involved in the actual crime and coverup...? Some of them must be scared silly because they really screwed up the plans, the actual crime and their lame attempts at covering up are all pathetic...? Most of them, though, likely think they succeeded at pulling off the biggest scam of the century in broad daylight--they're proud, I'll bet. And that would be because they're stone-stupid fools besides traitors.

I've seen and heard all the items I wrote here on numerous blogs and videos on the internet. I attempted to present the same information a bit different is all. Again, don't use experts to make the points...have the experts put the legal case together with solid evidence, etc., but use the simple truth with a common sense approach to reach the undecided majority and to stip up some real fear among the criminals. All it would take is for a few scared criminals to start talking to save their slimy necks, right? So scare the shit out of them. And the simple truth presented in the simplest terms would do that, that is, if enough of us do it. That's been my approach lately...on other blogs and talking with those I know. I have no returns on how it's going yet but I think it's a good approach.

Thank you for your nice piece on the Nat Geo program. I'm not even sure if I'll bother watching...don't think so.

Take care, Magpie

Great job, Sander Hicks! We do indeed have science on our side. The nanothermite paper is the nail in the coffin. Maybe, just maybe, the truth is leaking out, the cover is cracking. Many thousands of scientists and other professionals are engaged. We shall prevail!

Think!

You can't turn 110 acres of 4 inch concrete into powder in 10 seconds without controlled demolition!!!

Just how dumb are the American people when it comes to maths and science? They have been believing in fairy tales over facts for years. What good Germans they would have made in Feb of 1933...

The terror events of September 11th 2001 were created by Americans, to terrorize the masses and let the powers that be pick there pocket (treasury) and circumvent civil rights. Mission accomplished.

Who benefited?
written by Agent Cozmo, August 31, 2009
Who benefited? The Cheney Bush Crime syndicate, and their corporate benefactors. Who sold the bullets and bombs used to slaughter innocent Iraqis, Afghans, and Pakistanis. Americans soldiers are guilty of war crimes for killing invading sovereign nations and murdering and torturing innocent persons. America has a long history of deposing democracy in favour of dictatorial or oligarchy regimes. American soldiers are a small price to pay for the profits of Blackwater and Haliburton et al.

America needs to get into Peace. Healtcare and education.

reply: Well now you know why there has been such a cutback in education all these past years...to keep the masses not so sharp in math & sciences...same think that was done to slave in the early..."don't teach them how to read and write...keep nice and dumb and dependent on someone else to explain what's being siad in the book". Unfortunaetly for the ding dongs that were a part of this...a mastery of science and math is not needed...just some good old common sense and that relentless spirit to seek truth that we all have witnessed in the form of a the 5 year olds classic question "But Why?".
