From Kevin Barrett's newsletter -- Kevin writes:

Elias is one of the world’s leading 9/11 researchers. He did a terrific job on my show today, 4/25/08 explaining why the US government’s failure to provide evidence that Muslims were on the alleged 9/11 attack planes is itself evidence that there were no Muslims on those planes. He pointed out that the US government was obliged by its own law and international law, as well as by its interest in supporting its version of events, to immediately provide what should have been easily available evidence documenting the boarding of all 19 men: the official passenger lists, boarding passes, eyewitness reports from airline personnel, surveillance camera videos, and DNA evidence from the alleged crash sites. The fact that no such evidence has been provided, and attempts to find this evidence have been rebuffed, (1) constitutes overwhelming evidence that there were no Muslims on the planes, and that the official story is thus a blood libel of historic proportions; (2) constitutes overwhelming evidence of conspiracy to obstruct justice, and (3) makes the US government itself the leading suspect in the murder of nearly 3,000 people on 9/11. Below is his press release announcing his memorandum to the UN. Elias is optimistic that this will be actionable, and he urges all participants in the cover-up to jump off the sinking ship while there’s still time.

UN Expert Urged to Obtain Facts regarding the Mass Murder of September 11, 2001 (from Elias Davidsson)

Press release
April 25, 2008

On April 14, 2008, Icelandic scholar and human rights activist Elias Davidsson submitted to the UN Special Rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions a detailed memorandum describing the failure of the United States government to adequately investigate the mass murder that occurred on September 11, 2001, establish the truth and bring those responsible to justice. His submission is based on the following principles of human rights that have been affirmed by the United Nations and human rights tribunals, and reaffirmed by a panel of distinguished personalities concerned with the need to establish the truth on the mass murder of September 11, 2001. These include Prof. Ali Khan, Law Faculty, Washburn University (USA); Dr. Daniele Ganser, Historisches Seminar, University of Basle (CH); Dr. Kevin Barrett, Co-Founder of the Muslim-Jewish-Christian Alliance for 9/11 Truth (USA); Jim Fetzer, Distinguished McKnight University Professor Emeritus, University of Minnesota (USA) and Prof. Lynn Margulis, Distinguished University Professor, MIT and member of the National Academy of Sciences (USA):

1. Principle: Relatives of victims of extrajudicial killings are entitled to know the truth about the circumstances surrounding these killings and the identities of the perpetrators
2. Principle: Society as a whole is entitled to see perpetrators of extrajudicial killings identified and brought to justice
3. Principle: Governments are under the moral and legal obligation to carry out, in good faith, investigations into cases of extrajudicial killings occurring on their soil.

The Submission to the Special Rapporteur, for which Mr. Davidsson is alone responsible, demonstrates that the United States government has failed to act in conformity with these principles:

1. It failed to positively establish the identities of the perpetrators of the mass murder of September 11, 2001, the identities of the planners and sponsors and the identities of the tools of crime. It thus grossly failed to establish the truth on this massive deprivation of the right to life, to which the relatives of the victims and society as a whole are morally and legally entitled.

2. It failed to bring any of the perpetrators, organizers and sponsors to justice, thus failing the expectation of the international community, as reflected in UN Security Council Resolution 1368 of September 12, 2001.

3. It attempted to prevent investigations of this mass murder to take place, condoned the destruction of forensic evidence, gagged witnesses and suppressed evidence crucial to understanding what happened on the fateful day.

The mass murder of September 11, 2001 represented a crime against humanity. As none of those responsible for this crime against humanity have been brought to trial, the Special Rapporteur is called upon, in the light of the "stakes involved for international peace, international law and human rights" and in conformity with his Mandate, to "seek explanations from the US authorities for their failure to (a) adequately investigate the events of 9/11; (b) positively identify the authors of the crime; and (c) bring them to justice." Moreover, the Special Rapporteur is requested to present his findings "to the appropriate UN bodies" as envisaged by his Mandate.

Editors and politicians are encouraged to join in requesting that UN human rights bodies, including the Special Rapporteur, seek explanations for the failure by the United States government to fulfil its international obligations with regard to the crime against humanity committed on September 11, 2001.

I think I like this guy...

This is from Elias Davidsson's website, dated April 20:

Global Terrorism Database (GTD)
http://www.start.umd.edu/data/gtd/

Dear folks,

I wish first to express my appreciation for your compilation of global terrorism statistics and the attempt to use a reasonable methodology in classifying terrorist incidents.

My question refers to one particular and major incident, in which I contend that you make serious unsubstantiated allegations. The incident, ID nr. 74144, refers to part of the September 11, 2001 events, namely to the alleged crash of Flight AA11 on the North Tower of the World Trade Center. [See: http://209.232.239.37/gtd2/ViewIncident.aspx?id=74144 ]

In the detailed description of this incident, the perpetrators are identified as Al-Qa'ida, deemed an Islamic-Islamist (Sunni) religious organisation. Their motive is listed as "an attempt to cause a blow to the United States and cause American casualties." Yet, there exists no material evidence linking this incident to Al-Qa'eda, notwithstanding how this elusive entity is defined. The US Government has never produced any evidence, that would be admissible in a court of law, that an organisation by the name of Al-Qa'eda, or any of its alleged leaders, planned, financed or organized this incident. Statements made by alleged Al Qa'eda leaders cannot be considered material evidence of such a link, particularly when one considers where, when and how such statements were allegedly made. Moreover, the FBI admitted in June 2006 to an American journalist that it possessed no "hard evidence" to link Osama bin Laden to 9/11.

Secondly, contrary to what is stated in the Incident Summary, there is no factual base for the allegation that "[f]ive hijackers belonging to the Al-Qa`ida terrorist organization, took control of the Boeing 767 aircraft on a flight originating from Logan International Airport in Boston, Massachusetts, and destined for Los Angeles International Airport." There exists not a single document proving that the five persons alleged to have hijacked Flight AA11, had boarded on that aircraft; there are also conflicting reports regarding the gate number from where the aircraft departed as well as evidence that Flight AA11 was not scheduled to fly on September 11, 2001. In addition, no one has seen the alleged hijackers board the aircraft, no CCTV recording documents their boarding, no boarding cards' stubs have been produced proving their boarding and their bodily remains from the crash site have not been positively identified. Finally, there is no evidence that these five individuals "belonged" to Al Qa'eda. While families of victims and members of the public have repeatedly asked for evidence proving who boarded Flight AA11 and the other aircraft of 9/11, the US Goverenment has failed for over six years to produce this evidence. The statements in that entry are, therefore, unsubstantiated and constitute serious accusations that are particularly hurtful to the families of the 9/11 victims who are entitled to the truth, as well as the families of those wrongfully accused of mass murder. The events of 9/11 have not been properly claimed by anyone, notwithstanding the preposterous and possibly fraudulent claims attributed to a fugitive named Osama Bin Laden or to individuals kept at a secret location and subjected to torture.

Hence, I would respectfully urge GTD to delete this entry from the database in order that your database achieve the necessary level of credibility which it deserves. Alternately, GTD might wish to add to its entries on 9/11 that the information included therein remains tentative and is based on unconfirmed official allegations regarding the identity of the perpetrators, their goals and the means of causing death.

In the view of the seriousness of the unsubstantiated allegations referred to in this letter, I intend to make this letter and our future correspondance available to the internet community.

Respectfully,

Elias Davidsson
