ALERT: Check and see if your IP ban has been lifted at 911blogger

Some of you may have seen the April Gallop thread and particularly my exposure of JREFer "AlienEntity."
Leftwright and particularly Victronix seem to be giving the guy a chance, warning him that if he tries to use nonsense arguments, his stay will be short lived.
Curious to see if this thread had attracted the attention of the dohbunkers, I went over to SLC and found this:
If they lifted the IP ban of one of the most notorious "debunkers," perhaps they also lifted some if not all of the people who were banned en masse under Reprehensor from WTCD?
- Adam Syed's blog
- Login to post comments

I'm a little confused if he
I'm a little confused if he actually means that his account has been reinstated or just his IP address unblocked from even looking at the site. Craig and Aldo can't even view blogger as guests from their workplace. But then he says that he hasn't dared to post a comment, implying that he had success logging in.
meh...
all those JREF rebunkers are going to be tried as accessories--that's all that really needs to be said about them.
Amen to that.
Amen to that.
nope
can't even look at the site, and I would have liked to have read the April Gallop thread. eh.
blogger
Blogger,s hidden agenda makes them worse then jref and it,s obvious agenda. Leftwright and other admins do not seem sincwere. How insulting to have leftwrite encourage us to contact blogger admins in order to reinstate our accounts that weore secretly disabled only. To be ignored
911blogger and leftwright never responded to my many requedst and the effort has and continues tto be a huge waste of time.
And who has the same ip address all the time anyway? My ip changes when I unplug my cable modem or log onto anothet computer.
Jpass -
While I understand your frustration at not getting an answer on being reinstated at 911Blogger your continued remarks that there is a hidden agenda at 911Blogger do not help your case.
As I seem to be the only moderator who is reviewing the histories and reasons behind actions taken against previous users, and since we have all been preoccupied with the site upgrade, and since I am involved in several other time consuming projects, your situation and the situation of other banned former 911blogger users is near the bottom of my priority list.
Frankly, your attitude toward the site and the moderators does not encourage me to elevate this issue on my list of priorities. This applies to others here, as well.
As for our hidden agenda, please feel free to describe it in detail at your earliest convenience.
Worse than JREF, eh?
This should be very interesting to read.
I think it worth noting that 911Blogger has been flooded with requests for new user accounts in the last few weeks, which only adds to the work load on the all volunteer moderators.
Regards,
John
NNo thanks.No thanks.
So the fact that I question 911bloggers sinceriy on another website is being used againsr me. Nice. Its as if you are ignoring me and using my frustration to justify your lack of effort to rectify the situation. I do not believe that it takes months and years to revieew a single account. You told me to request reenstatement and I got ignored.
my direct communication s to 911blogger have always been cordial.
Its a simple position. I simply do not trust you or 911blogger.com. if you want to use that to continue the unjiustified assault on my freedom to participate at 911blogger...then I will add it to my list of reasons why I sim/ply do not trust the true motivations of 911blogger.
Until you do something other then asking me to justify my positon
The n i have no reason to discuss my position with you. This should free up some time for you.
fyi
I harbor a healthy distrust for wtcdemo but I have a feeling gretavo might encourage that rather then hold it against me
You said something about a hidden agenda,
which means to me something much more serious than simply questioning someone's sincerity.
Perhaps that was a poor choice of words on your part?
I'm not sure who you've contacted at 911blogger, other than me, I see everything that is sent to the site through the contact form and I don't recall seeing any request coming from you other than the initial one following my venture over to here, if my memory is serving me correctly.
I'm going to use the contact form on 911blogger to email you, I trust that address is still valid.
Regards, John
perhaps.
Perhaps. It is valid.
I find it hard to believe...
...that this thread They Could Have Stopped 9/11 - Coleen Rowley on the Moussaoui case has not attracted a single comment questioning the relevance of Rowley's claims:
"Coleen Rowley, retired FBI agent and 9/11 whistleblower, discusses the myth that FISA restrictions (and not incompetence at FBI and CIA headquarters) prevented critical intelligence sharing prior to 9/11, CIA Director George Tenet’s August 2001 “Islamic Extremist Learns to Fly” powerpoint briefing about Zacarias Moussaoui and why the creation of the DHS and increased centralization of intelligence organizations did nothing to fix 9/11 failures."
Not a single comment questioning this LIHOP junk? Yeah right. Either people are afraid to bring up "divisive issues" or they are being censored for allegedly doing so. Does 911blogger have an agenda? You betcha. It's no coincidence that after his long self imposed hiatus John Albanese feels it is safe to start posting prominently at blogger again.
as do i
Its about trust. Its obvious that those who are known to deliver critical dialog like the one you desceibe are not allowed to participate. To top it off...those posting this uncallenged information ...were there arguing with those like my self who were long banned from discussion. It is my view that I was infact banned for challenging this type of info.
Would you not agree that part of 9/11 truth
is deconstructing the government's story and showing where it contradicts itself and is flat out wrong?
This may not be your cup of tea, but it is a valid approach to 9/11 truth and should not be dismissed out of hand, imo.
There is a significant demographic that will only pay attention when they are shown the many significant problems with the OCT, they will not even consider things like CD until they realize that the OCT isn't worth the paper it's printed on.
Do you want to write these generally highly educated people off, out of hand, and not craft an approach that will get them to actually look at the events of 9/11/01 objectively?
That's not a winning strategy to me, and I am playing to win here.
The truth shall set us free. Love is the only way forward.
of course
Of course. Agree. In fact I feel as if I'm arguing that exact point. Not only that...I feel as if my power to do just that...deconstruct the gov. Position...has been reduced by 911blgger.com
I'd say the myth that 9-11 blogger has changes is...
I'd say the myth that 9-11 blogger has changed is BUSTED!!! It is still LIHOP central and very welcoming to these disinfo shills!
Eh,
Even if there are disinfo shills at blogger I don't think they're doing a very good job of getting people to forget about CD.

Of course our movement is going to be infiltrated, that is to be expected. One would have to be incredibly naive to think that there wouldn't be moles sent in to sow confusion etc. at the no. 1 9/11 truth news site.
I find that the "moles" are more effective w/r to the Pentagon issue, since that scenario is one where we don't have a clear video. Since it's forbidden to openly accuse someone of being an agent working for the other side, the best thing to do is simply point out the flaws in their arguments, especially when they use tactics which are identical to 'debunkers.' Victronix, for example, talks about how people who don't believe a plane crashed into the building as "wanting" to believe a sensational theory, and talks about how the "real truth" is more boring - and more awful. To the tee, this is identical to John McCain's bullshit argument against the truth movement as a whole, in his foreword to Popular Mechanics. When these parallels are pointed out, sans name calling or accusations, any halfway intelligent reader should be able to see for themselves and make up their own mind about peoples' motives.
another
Another possibility is that blogger is owned,operated and moderated by infiltrators. How can people be ok with moderating behind xlosed doors?
Case in point...mods were able to purge all users who merely visited that's aanother 911 truth website. That is at least suspicious and even more so if you consider other contencious issues that I don't have time to mention here but rhat we all know about here at wtcdemo. Luckily we are free to discuss this stuff. Rthanks gretavo for not being a shade ball.
The hard truth is that 911blogger has consistantly propped up the official gov. Position on 911 and simultaneously silenced those who attermpt to counter those who pimp offiacial bullshit.
So now I'm an infiltrator?
I guess I better tell Richard Gage that tomorrow when I talk to him about the two events I'm organizing for him.
The main reason behind the purge was that the mods at the time were massively overworked and tired of dealing with all the bs that was going on at the time and made a decision to toss out those they felt were the main instigators of the bs. Personally, I don't agree with the decision and would have handled it differently, but that was their call at the time and I respect their right to do as they saw fit.
I am hoping to create as much transparency at 911Blogger as possible as a lack of transparency is what allowed 9/11 to be created, maintains the cover-up and prevents us from creating the world we all want to live in.
As for 911Blogger propping up the OCT, I think that is a patently ridiculous argument on its face and just shows a rather extreme bias, which I will hasten to add you are fully entitled to have (but you should be honest and admit it). Yes, there are some very conservative approaches to 9/11 truth that are expressed on the site. Ideally, that will be counter balanced by more aggressive approaches. As long as everyone tries to agree on the basic facts and shares a basic understanding of logic and the scientific method, and remains civil, then there should be no great problem.
The real problems occur, imo, when people let their ego get the better of them and insist that their way is the only way. It is this intolerance of others' opinions and approaches that creates the vast majority of problems and this is further complicated by the very nature of the subject. Deep politics is all about looking beneath the surface and being highly critical of everything, and this often makes people very suspicious of others. The history of cointelpro and our knowledge of this history only exacerbates this problem.
Everyone is entitled to their own approach to the truth, but not their own facts, logic or physics.
Ask the hard questions, demand answers that make sense, but be civil about it, and when the inevitable disagreements arise, make sure to ask for clarification and really try to understand what someone is saying before you decide they are an "infiltrator".
Always remember that everyone thinks differently and be tolerant of those differences. It helps if you are open to changing your own opinions when you get new information, too.
Finally, since 911Blogger is apparently the most heavily visited 9/11 truth website online, we have a responsibility to keep the site as credible and friendly to newcomers as possible and this is reflected in our editorial policies.
The truth shall set us free. Love is the only way forward.
Does "credible" mean never
Does "credible" mean never speaking of any evidence that ties Israel or Israelis to the crime? Speaking of intolerance, Ive noticed that YT,Victronix and other preferred members of 911blogger can get away with smearing those as racist who bring the Israel-911 topic up. No repurcussions for them. Ever.(I read just yesterday that YT was conflating speaking of Israels possible role in 9/11 with "holocaust denial" and David Duke-such a tired and pathetic tactic. Is that ok at 911B?)
I was banned from 911B when Reprehensor decided to purge the site and make it more friendly territory for those that want to pin 9/11 on arabs and push LIHOP crap. I was never given a specific reason though and Reprecensor of course failed to tell me why I was banned. Are you still in touch with that dishonest snake? Maybe you could ask him for me. I was nothing but respectful to him until he banned me without explanation, so thats not the reason.
I appreciate your more open style but to be honest 911B looks the same now as it ever did. Certain topics are still clearly off limits and 911B is still not capable of looking beneath the surface. How many people there are critical of the supposed "hijackings"? Have any threads on Dominic Suter or Dov Zakheim lately?
Your bias is showing, Chris
911Blogger has covered the Israeli connections to the 9/11 operation, we just don't focus on it as much as some would like. When there is new information on Dominic Suter or Dov Zakheim, it will find its way onto 911Blogger. If I didn't have to spend so much time moderating alleged adults, perhaps I could dig deeper into ICTS and write an in depth article on them for the site. I'd also like to be researching this flight to Israel that apparently took place on the afternoon of 9/11/01.
What we don't allow is putting links to sites that push "holocaust denial" on 911Blogger for what should be very obvious reasons. Cosmos (YT) was simply pointing out the problems with certain links, nothing more. The fact that some people then conflate this with some hidden agenda goes more to showing their lack of critical thinking skills, their bias or both.
I have a feeling that you were banned as part of the unfortunate mass ban of WTCD users. I don't think this had anything to do with what people were writing about, but rather the endless personal attacks that were dragging the site down. Please see my responses to JPass on that.
Finally, I hope that you will agree that many people and organizations from several countries were involved in the 9/11 operation, so only focusing on one of these is a form of limited hangout, something I think we all agree is not a good thing.
The truth shall set us free. Love is the only way forward.
"endless personal attacks"?
LW, you make it sound as if everyone who ever posted at WTCD, including me, were constantly launching personal attacks at 911blogger.com. This is hardly accurate, and I challenge you to back it up. If there were personal attacks, they were tit for tat, and yet it seems only one side was "held accountable". The fact is that people who were known to read/post at WTCD were banned specifically because we call bullshit on people like Jon Gold and John Albanese who uncritically promote material that implies the accuracy of elements of the OCT. They don't do this apologetically, explaining how one must lead reluctant people in denial slowly to the truth, they do it with the knowledge and intention of implying the veracity of the hijacker narrative. When asked to support their (the OCT's) claims with hard evidence, they would get defensive and claim they were being attacked. The shtick got really old, LW, as did their constant griping about how this "isn't the controlled demolition movement". A person has to be pretty gullible to believe that these people are sincerely interested in the whole truth about 9/11. About as gullible as one would have to be to believe that Judge Hellerstein is not complicit in the cover-up and in fact on the side of the victims as a new user at 911B has been claiming, with as yet no rebuttal from anyone. Are some rebuttals being censored for being "divisive"? How can anyone know? All I can say is that 911blogger still has huge credibility issues, and complaining that our style here at WTCD is immature or whatever doesn't change that. I'd much rather be guilty of offending liars and shills than defending and protecting them.
Exactly right, one side was
Exactly right, one side was "held accountable" while the other was not. The LIHOP crew(Arabesque,Gold etc.) "attacked" just as much as anybody from this site did but its clear there was(is?) a double standard in play there.
Yours is too :-)
It has to be new information? I see "old information" posted about other 9/11 topics all the time, many times stuff that reinforces parts of the official story. I look forward to your piece on ICTS and look forward to the usual suspects shouting you down for even posting it.
Part of the reason "certain links" are posted when one is writing about possible Israeli involvement in 9/11 is because sadly sites like 911B and other high profile 9/11 truth groups avoid the topic altogether and we are left with very few links on the subject. If I(or anybody else) had better links than Bollyn I would post them but to attack the messenger and ignore the message/info within shows, I don't know, kind of a lack of critical thinking skills.
Cosmos, Victoria Ashley and the resident "disinfo police force"(self appointed but sustained by 911B) are free to attack all they want, but god forbid somebody calls them out on their bullshit. The double standard was always obvious, it may be less so now but it still seems to be there. Of course most of us "undesirables" are no longer there to challenge them on their "facts", so their job is much easier now. And yeah, I was purged at the same time most here were, though I was never given a reason. Am I to believe that ONLY us "WCTD rats" were leveling "personal attacks" at others and the 911B disinfo police force members(Arabesque,Gold,Albanese,YT etc.)were not? You see the problem here right? And why maybe some people would not trust your site?
I agree, it likely took the help of various people in various countries to pull off 9/11 but imho based on all the available evidence Israelis played a key role, a role that continues to be ignored or downplayed. 911blogger is a part of this. We can continue to go in circles for years, blaming "Bush and arabs" until 9/11 ends up like the JFK hit or we can stop self censoring and confront ALL of the evidence now. I hope 911B starts doing the latter at some point soon. Focusing on everything BUT Israel could be the biggest limited hangout of all.
Thanks for the response though, you've already proven yourself a more decent person than Reprehensor, who felt no need to respond to most us after needlessly banning us. I'm done venting now.
engineered bias
I wasn't directly accusing you of being an agent. I was suggesting a possibility should be considered. I will take it a step further, I have witnessed a pattern of activity at 911Blogger.com that would boost the probability of this possibility.
It's easy for you to say that heavy workload and the woes of 911 Truth activists caused this secret purge, although I don't buy it. Even if true, it's still un-acceptable. Users were silenced by 911Blogger specifically because they challenged other users and specific information.
The truth is that years went by and this secret purge was never even acknowledged. Myself and others got no response, no admission, no explanation, no justification. Specific information was allowed to go unchallenged. I'm not worried about how the purge affected me as much as other users who could really could have used a critical point of view at key moments of their 911 Truth introduction and learning.
Let's be clear. This kind of action is extremely suspicious. You are asking us to take your word that it was the result of exhaustion, a claim we can't verify and a position I just don't believe. You might and that's fine.
The lack of critical evaluation of certain information is obvious to those who were secretly purged because those are in fact the ones who challenged this information. And we believe that is precisely why there was a secret campaign to purge users who challenged such things at 911Blogger.com.
I want to address a paragraph from our e-mail exchange:
You seem to admit that the reason for the secret purge was that specific people were called out and specific information was challenged. So the question is was this the result of exhaustion or was it a coordinated campaign? Mainly, I was suggesting that the latter is still on the table.
And likewise, I would also suggest the same thing to you. Consider your own biases. Your extreme work load, dedication and association with 911Blogger.com would seem to be a source of bias for you and allows you to overlook some pretty shady business.
Out of common courtesy,
I would think that you would at least ask me before putting parts of a private email exchange on a public website. A better route would have been to make your points in an email.
Let me also say that I think you made a good first step back over at 911Blogger, and I thank you for that.
Moderators are human beings, they have a bias like everyone else. When they get caught in the middle of a fight, they have to make judgment calls and almost always end up taking sides. I'm not saying that all the calls made were 100% correct and I certainly don't agree with a blanket guilt by association policy. That's why when I became aware of the mass purge I asked questions and then headed over here to start a dialogue to see if anything could be done about it.
I don't think that anyone was silenced because of who or what they challenged, I think that it was how (and how often) the challenges were being made that became tiresome to the moderators at the time and was viewed as a real drag on a site as public as 911Blogger is. The fact that WTCD serves as basically a base camp for launching pointless personal attacks against certain individuals does not reflect well on the site or its regular users, imo. It was simply more expedient to purge everyone associated with WTCD, than try to parse out exactly who was doing what and why. When people have a limited amount of time, are annoyed and getting flak from all sides, they do triage and sometimes this means there is collateral damage. Once again, I'm not saying this is right, just the way it is. I also think that trying to make more of it than this without something a bit more concrete is unfounded and not worthy of a critical thinker.
That said, you are entitled to your own opinion, as is everyone.
As for my own bias, I have a very strong bias against anyone who baits, badgers or bullies others, from any "side" for any reason. I think recent history underscores this point pretty well, too. I also have a bias in favor of mature objective critical thinkers who know how to agree to disagree on some things and still work together toward a common goal.
I hope that this has clarified my thoughts on this. If not, feel free to ask questions.
The truth shall set us free. Love is the only way forward.

Hi Leftwright,
I got the email from you. If you can do me a favor, please delete my account completely from 9-11blogger, or at least the personal details from my registration to the site. i hold no grudges against you and admire your work for 9-11 truth, but I cannot entrust my private details to the website after everything that has happened.

As for 911Blogger propping up the OCT, I think that is a patently ridiculous argument on its face.
En totale, I agree with that. Clearly the overwhelming majority -- dare I go on a limb and say "everybody" -- at blogger understands that the towers were demolished. I'd even go as far as to say that most people at blogger are well aware of the Dancing Israelis, etc. If you argue against CD at blogger you're guaranteed to be voted down, as has been the case with Gold in the past.
But...
Let's add the words "various aspects of" to that sentence:
As for 911Blogger propping up various aspects of the OCT
Now this is absolutely true. While there might not be an official, written policy defending various aspects of the OCT, just have a look at some past blog entries, and watch how people fall for them hook line and sinker.
In particular, look at how much sheer time and energy Loose Nuke, Victronix, Jimd3100, and a few others put into trying to defend the idea that real Islamic hijackers actually hijacked the planes.
Jimd3100 wrote a verbose entry (riddled with spin) defending the idea that the phone calls were all genuine despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Within a few minutes of the entry being posted, in comes Jon Gold to say "Great work Jim; I shall forward this to Dr. Griffin and ask that he stop promoting bad information." (There's no way Gold could have read the entire essay that fast.) I deconstructed a small amount of the essay and while most people voted me up for that, Loose Nuke and Jimd3100 fiercely opposed my posts and went to great pains to always have the last word and try to spin me.
Then of course, there's the real biggie, defending the idea that Flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon. Forget the CIT flyover for a second. Victronix and crew, and I'll repeat, defend the claim that Flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon. They will vote down anyone who even suggests that an empty, remote controlled, Northwoods-style-swap 757 crashed into the building.
Over in the Frank Legge "What hit the Pentagon" thread, Victronix said this:
I'd bet my money that a real 757 hit with real passengers and a lot
of real people died that day.
It's ugly, boring -- relative to Skywarriors, bombs, faked morphed
phone calls, etc -- and awful. It's about death. And yet, it's most
likely what "happened," at the end of the day.
The proposed "magic show", on the other hand, is exciting,
contentious, mysterious, and devoid of the nastiness of human bodies
instantly crushed into oblivion against mortar walls, families no longer
with a wife or a husband or a son or a daughter, and the experiences of
those in DC who lived through it who will never ever forget the images
and likely will have PTSD the rest of their lives.
That post received seven up votes.
My response to her, which was totally on point, was heavily downvoted. I compared her argument to John McCain's argument against the entire truth movement in his foreword to the Popular Mechanics propaganda, where he said the following:
...But though the evidence for Al Qaeda's central role in the 9/11
attacks is overwhelming, many have found the facts unsatisfying.
Perhaps this is understandable. We want to believe that 19 men could not
murder our citizens, destroy our grandest buildings, and terrorize our
country. Surely, something more was at work...
...We would like to think there was something more at work on
September 11--something hidden, more sophisticated, something as grand
as the lives so easily destroyed. Those unsatisfied with the ordinary
truth of the attacks have concocted stories more fanciful, more
conspiratorial than the events as we know them...
This is especially unbecoming of Victronix in light of what we know about the Northwoods Documents. Honestly, it really kind of makes my blood boil to see her make the argument that people like myself "want" to believe in the no-757-crash because it's "exciting" and "mysterious" and that the "real truth" is "too boring." And then the pseudo-righteous soapbox: reminding us that real people died that day, as if we forgot. Honestly, she really shouldn't be allowed to talk like that. When alleged "truth activists" speak like this I can't help but question their agenda.
Now, regardless of what your opinions are re the Pentagon issue, I think you have to concede that my response to her was totally on point and the only reason anyone would downvote it is because they either dislike me personally, or they have a vested interest at basically shouting down (via the votes) anyone who challenges the particular aspect of (not the entire) the OCT in which Flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon. I think there's also the holier-than-thou mentality of "Gasp! How could you possibly have the gaul to compare a dedicated truth activist to a debunker like McCain?"
Finally, it should be noted that the "unofficial" policy of defending AA77 crashing into the Pentagon can be seen in that pro CIT entries are NEVER front paged, whereas several decidedly anti CIT entries sometimes (but not always) are. Jim Hoffman's anti-CIT interview with Michael Wolsey, for example, was front paged, a few days after I posted the release of National Security Alert, which, despite the numerous endorsements from prominent members of the movement, was back-paged. The Frank Legge "What hit the Pentagon" entry, which is really nothing more than an unscientific opinion piece (and besides, how is Legge, a chemist, qualified to dismiss the technical findings of professional pilots like Balsamo???) with a "double negative" hypothesis - which amounts to giving the official impact narrative the benefit of the doubt - was also front paged. This is enough for the astute observer to become suspicious.
Finally LW, I don't think you're one of the infiltrators. I think you're a good egg who's trying to do some great things, and honestly I have to disagree with the commenter on this thread that blogger is the same as it always has. I think things HAVE gotten better since Reprehensor left (and heck, even Screw Loose agrees with me here!), even though it is by no means perfect. I wouldn't attempt to have this kind of dialogue with you if I thought you were on the payroll of the other side. I myself was a bit "slow" in "waking up" to the compromised nature of some aspects of blogger, particularly the way the Pentagon issue gets marginalized and wrongly framed. But I have to say that the policy of back-paging the Pentagon entries that challenge the official story simply because the issue is "too contentious" is absurd; all it does is diminish the readership.
Edited to add:
Here is a new comment by Victronix that is a CLASSIC example of how she lumps the very real issue of no 757 crashing into the Pentagon and conflating it with the truly absurd claims of TV fakery or holograms at the WTC, bunching all of it up as "no planes." Now, we'll see how that comment gets voted on, seeing as how this particular entry is on the front page:
http://911blogger.com/node/23005#comment-229790
wait a second
Hi Leftwright,
Did you just say this:
"As for 911Blogger propping up various aspects of the OCT
Now this is absolutely true. While there might not be an official, written policy defending various aspects of the OCT, just have a look at some past blog entries, and watch how people fall for them hook line and sinker. "
What is your stance on this unwritten policy? Does it still hold today?
that was Adam...
not LW. and for what it's worth, I don't think people necessarily fall for those defenses of the OCT hook line and sinker, I think the problem is that 911blogger has a great number of users who are not honest and PRETEND to believe various aspects of the OCT like the hijackings narrative in order to make it seem like those are reasonable positions for truthers to still hold.
thanks, that made my head
thanks, that made my head spin for a while.
Any entity that will try to
Any entity that will try to sell disinfo has to gain credibility first, then maintain it while it injected false info. If all the info they put out was bad, they wouldn't get the audience they want at all. It is as simple as that and 911blogger was almost transparent about it during reprehensor's reign. There are honest truther's at blogger, but when it comes down to who controls the site, it seems the last call ended up with someone who protects ISRAELI involvement in 9-11 (critiques of ISRAEL for invading Gaza was ok) and welcomes LIHOP (despite the incompatibility of LIHOP with CD). Think about it, how long did it take for the pro CD crowd to finally get Jon Gold exasperated enough to leave. Now that he has left, the other lihop shills step up to the plate and the mods find it all just fine.
It's a fine line that blogger has to walk to maintain credibility yet still direct people to their agenda. I think Cindy Sheehan is a fine example. At, first she seemed responsive to 9-11 truth, but now she seems totally corrupted into the LIHOP paradigm. Who seems to be coaching her 9-11 education these days?
We can play stupid if we want and think that this LIHOP peddling is good for us. Or we can call a spade a spade.
Ding Ding
Hi Juan,
My point of view is VERY similar to yours. I would encourage you to get your account at 911Blogger.com reinstated if you were banned for no reason other then expressing these views there or for just visiting WTCDEMOLITION.COM.
Although LeftWright seems to have a hard time deciphering LIHOP disinformation and the pushers that peddle this garbage, he does seem reasonable to me. He has reviewed all my comments and contributions to 911Blogger and found no reason for me to be banned or moderated. If I am reinstated I'd really like some familiar faces that 'get it'.
The only thing I would add is that the case against Israel might also be some sort of contrived psyop working along side the goofy LIHOP narrative that Sheehan, Gold and Hicks and others cling to so strongly.
Think about it....
Why would Israeli Intel. agents park a van across from the burning towers and celebrate the desctruction of the WTC complex on 9/11/2001? All eyes were on the towers and so all eyes would see these shady Israelis celebrating.
That said, I do believe that Israel is prime suspect #1 for many reasons. Mainly, the Israeli attack on the USS Liberty was a historical example where Israel attacked and killed 34 US NSA and Navy men in an attempt to draw the US into a war with it's enemies.

Hi Jpass, I can't remember
Hi Jpass,
I can't remember my password nor the email that I used to create my blogger account. That would make it difficult for them to validate my account. I would rather register a new account but I cant even find a registration page. They have made it so not worth it for me to get back in.
On top of that I don't trust them at all with my connection details (IP address and email). So sorry I can't join you there.
Regarding the Israeli agents, I don't think they were planning to get caught at all. They intended to be seen but only as Arab dressed assholes celebrating the demolitions.
That might not even be their mission, they could have been tasked other stuff earlier, and was only watching the demolitions as spectators then, being part of the plot they knew when it would happen and knew to bring video cams and position themselves at the right place. Besides, even without those Mossad agents, the juxtaposition of Larry Silverstein and other Israeli connected personalities just points most of the fingers at Israel. Think about it, three of Larry Silverstein's building were wired to go down on 9-11. He owns the buildings so how could the demolition charges be put in place without him knowing it. If he wasn't part of the plot then he would have spoken up after the fact and claim that the buildings were infiltrated and demolished by some group who evaded his security. Now Silverstein isn't some low level schmuck in Israel. He is a big time fella who is in close terms with Israeli Prime Ministers. If he was a victim, Israel would come to his aide and find out who blew up his buildings. The Mossad would be converging on the WTC site after the demolitions, not before or during the time of the demolition itself. The fact that the Mossad were already there on the morning of the demolitions, and remember Dominic Sutter ran away to Israel right after the attacks speak so much of their guilt.
I think the Israeli angle is being played down and hidden because they are the main beneficiary of the WTC attacks. But I don't think they are where the buck stops. You have to go one level above the Israel project to find the true perps, and there I think you will find the old banking dynasties pushing the buttons that ultimately led to 9-11.
understood
Totally understand your position on blogger. On israel...
I always thought the story of the israeli spy arrested in lebanon deserved more attention. His nephew just happens to be a 911 hijacker.
hijackers as willing patsies
Ziad Jarrah may well have been a Zionist agent like his uncle, as well a Mohammed Atta. Which of the "hijackers" were reported to have spent time on Jack Abramoff's casino boat? Other "hijackers" may just have been arabs names/pictures pulled out of a hat--who knows. They may have thought they were picking people from their database who were already dead and got confused by those funny moozlim names. If they can screw up by revealing they have a file on a leftist Spanish politician by using his hairline in an Osama composite photo then heck...
They don't even have to be
They don't even have to be Zionists themselves to be working for Mossad. They could be working for the pay as I assume most low level assets are.
yes, I didn't mean that...
...Zionist agents are necessarily Zionists. Just mean that they are working for Zionists, and yes, probably for the money!
I actually think 9/11 was
I actually think 9/11 was conceived in order to benefit Israel (Zionism, actually.) What I don't believe is that Israel was conceived to benefit Jews. I could well be wrong, but here's my current best guess: Zionism was co-opted early on by wealthy elites who saw it as a way of usurping the power inherent in the symbolism of the "holy land". Religious leaders for centuries have herded massive flocks of people including into battle against one another, and certain wealthy elites had learned to manipulate both those religious leaders AND the political leadership that vied with the priest class for power over any given group of people. Modernity and its science and increasing spread of literacy and education threatened to erode the power of religious myth makers and so the elite began to look for ways to make their own secular myths like Communism, Zionism, Nazism, and Fascism as weapons against secular (and, problematically for the elites, increasingly democratic) political power. They also made a concerted effort to standardize the global economy under a system of their making. Dividing and conquering, controlling as many sides as possible in any and every conflict, but staying out of sight and "above the fray" themselves they may or may not pull strings directly all the time (as with 9/11) but they certainly have the power to react, and cannot totally dismiss mass public opinion and perceptions.
Scrubby -
How much street activism do you do? You do realize that there are still a lot of people out there that are just beginning to be open to questioning the OCT, yes? For them, even baby steps such as learning how Rowley's FISA request was re-written so that it would be denied are major revelations.
I think the problem too many people within the movement have is that they can't remember what it was like when they accepted the OCT, if they ever did, that is. Thus, they have great difficulty relating to people who are still fully immersed in the make believe world of the OCT. So if you want to succeed in opening them up to 9/11 truth, you have to approach them in a way that makes sense to them. You won't have much luck ordering Chinese food in Spanish, eh?
Everyone is different and some folks take a long time to wake up and have to be woken up very gently. I fully understand that some people don't have the patience to work with these people, but we cannot afford to write them off. Just getting some people to realize that there are serious problems with the OCT is a victory and this will eventually lead these people to dig deeper in pursuit of the truth, and that is all we can ask.
The main obstacle we face now is denial and overcoming this denial is a very difficult undertaking requiring a variety of subtle approaches. Just hitting them over the head with CD does not work, as that only reinforces their denial.
Put more simply and in terms you seem to find useful, showing the OCT to be false leads to LIHOP and LIHOP leads to MIHOP.
The truth shall set us free. Love is the only way forward.
It depends on how one shows the OCT to be false
I'm sorry if my shorthand was not clear enough for you.
By showing the OCT to be false and showing what actually did happen, even if it is only exposing something like NORAD's lies and complete failure to follow its own protocols, one will start a process that will inevitably lead inquisitive minds to find out what actually did happen, up to and including the obvious CD of the towers and WTC 7. Of course, for those who want to maintain their denial, it may take quite awhile for all of the cumulative evidence against the OCT to cause them to take a truly objective look at the events of 9/11/01. That's just the way some folks are. We have to work with the mindset that people actually have if we want to succeed and for some this means going very slow. Unfortunate, but true. We also have to accept that there will always be around 20% of people who will simply never accept that elements within the U.S. government were involved in the 9/11 operation.
I'm not a big fan of terms LIHOP and MIHOP, btw.
The truth shall set us free. Love is the only way forward.

I don't like this characterization. Where do you see that anyone here doesn't have the patience to deal with noobies? Or that I or anyone else wants to 'right them off'? That insinuation is ridiculous.
Also, I'm sorry for posting the segment of our conversation. I agree I should have e-mailed you first.

processing new user requests at 911blogger.com
Out of curiosity....why do new users cause so much work? What do you guys do when a new user registers? Unless you guys are doing background checks on new user requests I can't imagine why processing new users would cause much work.
What is the processing procedure and how many new users do you mean when you say blogger was flooded? My requests are years old. My latest is over a month old. It would take only seconds to enable my account.
When I process users on drupal it takes under 5 seconds per user request once I'm logged in so I'm interested in what you guys do when you process new user requests at 911blogger.
Perhaps I used a poor choice of words earlier.
It is a mult-step process
Just creating a new account is easy and quick. Generally,the process goes like this:
1) We get an email asking for an account and we respond with an email asking them to review the rules and a few other things and then reply with an email stating their acceptance of the rules and terms of use.
2) Assuming they accept the rules and terms of use, we then create a user account and they are able to make moderated comments. This is where the real work comes in. Reading all the comments, especially those of the new users, and then publishing those that are under moderation (and are acceptable, which is the vast majority of comments).
Perhaps I take this more seriously than I should, but I care deeply about the site and my own sense of justice, so this can be time consuming, depending on how many comments are being made by users in moderation (both new and those existing users who are in moderation, that is).
Additionally, new users often result from people submitting something to the site and our asking them if they want a user account, which adds one more email cycle to the process.
Furthermore, if has recently become apparent that perhaps I should do a little more checking on some of those requesting new user accounts before creating them (small joke at my expense).
We are considering creating a self-registration process that would cut out the manual process now used, but new users would still have to be moderated closely during their probationary period.
Finally, I am involved in quite a few other things completely unrelated to 911Blogger that are quite time consuming and usually high priority.
[Everything takes time, there are only so many hours in the day and I do occasionally actually sleep, amazingly enough.]
i find
I find moderating users who have not yet broken the rules to be a waste of time. Why? You know the vast majority are approved...you know you are under a heavey work load...doesn't it seem inefficiant and possibly hindering th quest for the truth about the attacks on 911
Why?
Why?
Police state conditioning of the proles, of course.
Regarding SLC
Is there any point or net benefit in correcting the record over at SLC?
I am not the "head honcho" at 911Blogger, I am only one of several moderators.
If you read that thread, Guitar Bill also makes several other erroneous statements about me, which is normal for him as he seems allergic to any form of the truth.
The truth shall set us free. Love is the only way forward.
back to blogger
Because of the efforts of Leftwright and in the face of strong opposition from other 911blogger moderators, I've been fully reinstated at 911blogger.com
I'm not exactly sure what rhis means but its refreshing and a long time coming. Considering that Leftwright was the only one who reviewed my blogger content and could not find a single reason to ban or moderate me...I wonder why he was met with such strong resistance to this. I mean its not like my commentary and content was ground breaking material.
Anyway, thanks Leftwright!
Cool!
Cool!
no interest
I was banned a long time ago. what is that famous quote mangled by W? "fool me once, shame on me. Uh, fool me twice, won't get fooled again." some kind of mash-up with The Who and whatever. yeah, I'm never going back to that cesspool, but good luck to whomever tries it out.
what does this crap have to do with 9/11?
anyone? bueller? I realize that anyone asking what this crap has to do with 9/11 over at 9/11 blogger would probably be censored then banned...

Sibel Edmonds Whistleblower
Luke Ryland, proprietor of the blog Let Sibel Edmonds Speak, discusses the disclosure of pre-9/11 FBI investigations that corroborate some of Sibel Edmonds’ previously unsupported claims, Turkish lobbies involved in Congressional bribery and drug trafficking, US foreign military aid (funded by taxpayers) that keeps the world awash in F-16s and lines the pockets of defense contractors and the best online resources for getting up to speed on Sibel Edmonds’ story.
