[I'll have to check to see about a registration request, but I'm assuming this really is Carol, so while I normally don't approve anonymous comments that claim a real identity, I'm making an exception! -gReT]

I tried to gain access to this website, but I don't think I will be allowed to post, but maybe I am just hopelessly unadept with computers and there is nothing particularly sinister in being unable to post to a site- I had to go through tremendous ordeals to post anything on multiple 9/11 Truth sites, so this is not unusual, but I would like to clarify who I am and why I am here.

I am Carol Brouillet, and I did organize the first march demanding a Congressional Investigation of 9/11 in January 2002. I organized the first San Francisco Citizen's Inquiry into 9/11 in March 2004, I helped found the 9/11 Truth Alliance and our local group, which is probably the oldest 9/11 Truth group, still actively meeting- the Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance and former Senator Mike Gravel attended our last meeting to push for a California 9/11 Truth Commission Ballot Initiative, which will be on the agenda of our upcoming meeting this Thursday.

I do know personally many, but not all of the activists, researchers who have been involved with the Truth Movement, over the course of the past 9 years. My website includes a very detailed history of my activism, as well as the local efforts in the Bay Area, and some of the other things we have done- like the Chicago 9/11 Revealing the Truth- Reclaiming the Future Conference, Arizona Accountability Conference, the Nat'l Media Reform Conferences.

I also publish the Deception Dollars, and prior to working on this issue, my main issue was changing the monetary system/global economics and I just spoke at the Monetary Reform Conference on Strategy for the Monetary Reform Movement, and I have written about Strategy for the Truth Movement, as well.

I'm currently reading DRG's latest book on Cognitive Infiltration and this morning I got a call from someone who wished to donate money to our local group who told me that this website was one that he followed, and frankly I had never heard of it before. I am busy, and usually don't read discussion blogs and I must admit that it is hard to decide which are the websites that should be included or bumped from the Deception Dollar- as I can't monitor all of them.

I have been attacked (not that I can see on this website) but on other websites, as well as in meetings, at events that I have organized for being "too radical" "too conservative" "not placing enough emphasis- or placing too much emphasis on almost every aspect of 9/11" ... And I really hate arguing over the individual aspects of 9/11- and doubt if there are two people in the movement who agree 100% on every single issue.

It's one thing to keep up a website, it is another to deal with flesh and blood people, organize marches, rallies, film festivals, events, order books, pay taxes, get the majority vote at meetings to allocate donations towards the "work." Much of that depends on "trust"- who does what, behavior, statements, actions, who is reliable, who shows up, who earns trust for helping out in a pinch, who is there rain or shine when needed.

In your long laundry list of who's who in the 9/11 Truth Movement- there are some notable people who are completely missing.

I wrote an article on money a long time ago and I'm going to quote it here-

"Near Findhorn, Scotland, some people were walking across a newly plowed field. As they turned to observe the sunrise, the light caught the dewdrops on the fragile spider webs on the moist dark earth. Only at that moment did they realize that the entire field was covered by one enormous vastly intricate network of spider's webs. Our own efforts, I believe, are invisible, too; only when the light of love shines clearly can we see how deeply connected we are to all people throughout the world, every liberation struggle, all people of faith, all people who strive to ease the world's suffering and to nurture those around them.

We must remember history, and realize how each of us has a role to play at this extraordinary moment in time."

Truth, love, concern, trust, there are these invisible forces which bind the truth movement... but I think the most powerful force is love, a heartfelt emotion, even when there is disagreement over the details, that we are trying to expose a horrible, violent lie, used to trick the entire world into going along with immoral wars, a growing police state- that anyone who genuinely loves life and cares about people, planet the future should oppose.

I do appreciate the efforts to discern the true from the false, the shills from the genuine truth seekers, the gullible from the rigorously discerning, disciplined intellectuals, but personally I think for me, it is a waste of my time to try to figure out who are the "cointelpro infiltrators" amidst the entire movement, because if I did that, I would have no time for anything else and nothing would get done.

However, I must say that, as the movement grows, I find it harder and harder to work with our local group; I encounter more and more resistance to my ideas, my projects, my leadership. Maybe this is for the better and I should work in other areas. I have found other channels for my activism- a radio show, the work on monetary reform... But maybe it is because our group is getting more "conservative" and wants to argue to death any proposal which it hasn't vetted completely. Is this "cointelpro?" Or is it just personality conflicts? I don't know. Imagine being at a meeting with Richard Gage, Ken Jenkins, Cosmos, John Wright (Leftright), Paul Rea, Mickey Huff, Victoria Ashley, Jim Hoffman, Chuck Thurston, Dave Heller, Bonnie Faulkner, Janette MacKinlay, Gypsey Taub, Maria Gilardin, Byron Belitsos, Gabriel Day, Bernie Rauch, Don Paul, Barrie Zwicker, Blaine Machan, hummux, John Fitzgerald, Joel Kohn, Sergio Lub, William Veale, Paul Bernadino, and 40 other strong personalities... In the San Francisco Bay Area these are the people who have come to our meetings, who have started their own websites, groups, and some no longer come to the meetings and some continue to come. We have our areas of agreement and disagreement- the Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance website has been an embarrassment for years, because there is no "website committee" and there is no consensus on what should be included or omitted. I guess, in some ways, our little group is a reflection of the movement, and it is a miracle that we get anything done, but we do, we keep trying despite the differences, what we are up against is "so much bigger than us" we have to work together... and at the same time, there is this deep, heartfelt hope that truth, justice will triumph eventually, and we are on the right side of this battle... at least we can sleep at night, feeling that we are on the side of Life, Humanity...
