nice!

I like how Zelikow has to sit and wait in line, carry his own bags, and basically just be a regular schmoe. See, these guys are NOT all-powerful titans, they are assholes who thought they would get away with their schemes--do not be intimidated!

all-powerful shmoes

eh, lest we deceive ourselves, this is how they operate and wield their power and control...by not calling attention to themselves. They are the brains and handlers just immediately behind the scenes, spread out in a thin layer, but rarely stand out. not many americans even known who Zelikow is...others got the attention. just a powerful schmoe.

but that's just it--ultimately he *isn't* all-powerful

nor are "they". we help create the illusion that they are by he way we talk about them. this is one of the reasons I think Alex Jones is a shill--he creates this myth of the secret rulers pulling all the strings when really it's just a big con job that people can't believe exists.

“We are Change” Throwing Softballs at Fifth Columnist-Zeliko

I can see that, once again, “We are Change” and the “truthers” have succumbed to the now highly popular and prevalent mode of modern journalism – tossing out total “softball” questions to those who have worked diligently to destroy the American republic from the inside and contribute to the genocide of 1.5 million Iraqis and untold Afghani sheep herders.

How come no one, when they get the excellent opportunity to confront treasonous slime like “Dr.” Zelikow, ever asks him questions such as:

Why is it that your 9/11 Commission did not ask any questions of Maurice Greenberg, whose company Kroll, Inc. handled security for the World Trade Center buildings?

How come you did not question Menachem Atzmon and Isser Harel, the two Israeli owners of International Consultants for Targeted Security (ICTS) whose company handled security at Boston’s Logan Airport, Newark International, American Airlines, and United Airlines? (ICTS also handled security for the London subway and bus systems on 7/7/05 as well, but that is a whole other story and investigation.)

Why was it that your commission did not look into the FBI’s reports on Urban Moving Systems of Weehawken, NJ whose owner, Dominic Suter, fled to Israel after being questioned by the FBI, and some of whose employees were found planting explosives on the George Washington bridge the afternoon of 9/11, and who were also found to have Israeli military and intelligence connections, along with professional military demolitions experience?

Why is it your commission did not seek to ask questions of any of the Israeli moving crews caught driving around the U.S. just after 9/11 with vans full of RDX, C4, and other such military explosive materials?

Why were 200 Israeli espionage agents quietly deported from the U.S. just after 9/11 with the legal blessings of dual national Michael Chertoff? Did you ask Mr. Chertoff why he would have done such a thing? Is he still employed by Mossad?

If you were aware that none of the so-called “hijackers” could even operate little Cessna Piper Cubs, why did you not look into the possibility that those United and American Airlines flights might have been seized in mid-air (or before) through remote avionics technology?

Who informed treasonous NY Mayor Rudy Giuliani that BOTH of the WTC’s twin towers were coming down?

Who told the BBC that Lucky Larry’s WTC7 was going to come down half an hour before it did?

Who informed the executives of the Jewish-owned entertainment firm Warner Brothers to leave NY on 9/11/01 because “something big was going to take place”?

Why did the Israeli company Zim Shipping International suddenly cancel its WTC lease a week before 9/11?

Why did Warren Buffett call for a national meeting of American business leaders at Offutt Air Base on the morning of 9/11, the same military base where Air Force One landed later that day? Does Warren Buffet always schedule his business meetings on military bases, or was it just a one-time only, 9/11 kinda thing?

During the course of your 9/11 commission’s investigations, did you ask any questions of the men who benefited from the rather large insurance payouts after the terror events, such as Mssrs. Silverstein, Lowy, and Eisenberg?

Who bought all those put options on American Airlines, United Airlines, and the group of insurers who underwrote the property insurance policies for Larry Silverstein’s buildings?

How come 9/11 truth people never seem to ask Zelikow about his strangely prophetic article “Catastrophic Terrorism: Imagining the Transforming Event” from the 1998 Nov.-Dec. issue of the CFR publication Foreign Affairs? In this article, he writes:

“Such an act of catastrophic terrorism would be a watershed event in American history. It could involve loss of life and property unprecedented in peacetime and undermine America's fundamental sense of security, as did the Soviet atomic bomb test in 1949. Like Pearl Harbor, this event would divide our past and future into a before and after.”

How many times have we heard the now familiar mantra, “but, of course, everything’s different after 9/11.”?

Uh, Dr. Zelikow, in 1998 did you just “imagine” the “transforming event,” or did you and your buddies like Paul Wolfowitz, who also predicted just such an event in his 2001 commencement speech at West Point, know before-hand about the Israeli military and intelligence factions’ plans for the transforming Pearl Harbor-like event of 9/11?

Did you not ask any of these questions, or interview any of these people because you did not want the victims’ family members and the American people to find out that 9/11 was not an “Arab job,” but was pulled off by operatives working at the highest levels of the Israeli military and intelligence services in cooperation with dual-national Israeli-U.S. citizens working as “moles” and sayanim within the American private sector and within the highest levels of the U.S. government?

Did you not ask any of these questions because you did not want the American people to find out that they were attacked on 9/11 in order to get them to support a series of wars in the Middle East which would put into play the imperial domino strategies of Israel as outlined in a document called “A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm”?

Were you also trying to cover the role in all of this by protecting the following eight neoconservative, “fifth columnist” signatories of this document prepared by The Institute for Advanced Strategic and Political Studies’ “Study Group on a New Israeli Strategy Toward 2000”?

1) Richard Perle, American Enterprise Institute (AEI), “Clean Break” Study Group Leader

2) James Colbert, Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs (JINSA)


3) Charles Fairbanks, Jr., Johns Hopkins University/SAIS

4) Douglas Feith, Feith and Zell Associates

5) Robert Loewenberg, President, Institute for Advanced Strategic and Political Studies


6) Jonathan Torop, The Washington Institute for Near East Policy (WINEP)


7) David “the Worm” Wurmser, Institute for Advanced Strategic and Political Studies

8) Meyrav Wurmser, Johns Hopkins University

Can we bring the real perpetrators of 9/11 and the “War on Terror” to trial and prosecution? To paraphrase President Barack Hussein Obama, “YES WE CAN!” and “YES WE WILL!”

The prosecution would like to call Mr. Philip Zelikow to the stand after the bailiff cleans up the puddle of pee by his chair...

all very good questions

but hey, you chase down the crook, you get to conduct the interrogation, so I can't really be too harsh in my judgement of these guys. just the fact that he is confronted is a great thing--he is reaping what he sowed.

in fact, i've seen a few episodes of "cold case files" where they track down suspects in murder cases that have been left unsolved for years and it seems to be a common and effective practice to guilt the suspect into either confessing or divulging info. often you can watch the videotaped interview with the suspect denying everything and the detective will instead of being confrontational like a TV or hollywood cop he or she will speak relatively softly but very firmly telling the person something along the lines of:

Perp: Nah, i did *not* kill mah wife--that's a lie!

Cop: Come on Perp, Louise is gone and if you tell us the truth you'll feel a lot better.

Perp: I am telling the truth, she done fallen down the stairs..

Cop: Perp, I need you to stop lying to me. We know that bullet wasn't fired into her skull by he stairs--it was your gun, and something happened, a terrible accident, maybe? We know you shot her, Perp, but we need you to tell us the truth.

Perp: i... i...

Cop: You were holding the gun and it went off, right? You were angry--it's ok--she's gone now but you can make your peace with her by telling the truth--you loved her right?

Perp: i... >blubber blubber< oh god, it was a mistake!!! i... she... we... the gun just went off, i was drunk, i didn't mean to... >SOB<

Cop: there there now, don't you feel better?
