Dear Howard Zinn Part II

Howard Zinn Part I

The Question

In Winnipeg, we asked Mr. Dion a very simple question which he could not answer. This man wants to be our next Prime Minister?!?

We feel that politics in Canada has become a dismal joke. Our would be leaders insult our intelligence and show nothing but contempt for the Canadian people. We are a democracy in name only.

This Man Has Never Seen So Many Cameras

Dr. David Ray Griffin in Vancouver

On May 16, 2007, Dr. David Ray Griffin will be speaking at St. Andrews Wesley United Church in Vancouver, British Columbia. For anyone who harbors doubts about US complicity in the events of 9/11 (I realize that includes a lot of people), this talk is an excellent opportunity to gain perspective on an event that many of us can agree, has been misrepresented by the corporate media. If Vancouver is within range, please consider this event.

Having now compiled three books of scrupulously referenced evidence, Dr. David Ray Griffin has surely become one of the world’s most respected authorities on the subject of 9/11. His talk is titled “Debunking the Debunkers”. Cost is $5 – $20 sliding scale at the door. Ten dollar advance tickets are on sale now, through the Vancouver 9/11 Truth Society:

For anyone new to the work of Dr. David Ray Griffin, here is an excellent article from Global Research:

With recent editorials in mainstream papers such as the Calgary Herald and the Winnipeg Sun, and with Rosie O’Donnell speaking out to 30 million viewers, there are signs everywhere that we are rapidly approaching a massive shift in public perception of this horrific event. September 11, 2001 has changed our world. My personal opinion is, that universal acceptance of what actually happened will change it even more drastically than the event itself has.

Those of us who receive the majority of our news from six major corporations, filtered through either of two wire services, can be forgiven for being in the dark about much of the information that is being presented by Dr. Griffin. A concrete example of how the media continues to actively deceive us:

A couple of months ago it was revealed that the BBC reported the collapse of the Solomon Building (WTC 7) nearly half an hour before it occurred. This was big news on the internet – especially YouTube, where one could see the BBC reporter telling us the building had fallen, with Building 7 clearly visible in the background. Remarkably, the media did not consider this amazing feat of ESP reporting newsworthy. Anyone who has ever wondered how ninety-nine percent of the world’s press can perpetuate such a staggering blackout should try to figure out who controls Reuters and the Associated Press. Solving that particular riddle cannot help but take us in the right direction.

When I first clued in to what had actually happened, less than a year ago, I responded in the way I know best – by writing about it. Such work can be tricky to distribute and promote, but I’ve experienced some modest success. Most recently the news site mixeye has picked up my article “Be Very Afraid of Fire”:

I’ve also received some criticism from various people who are opposed to my perspective. A common thread is George Monbiot, who seems to get quoted often. Especially this article:

In response, I wrote an article about the 9/11 “gatekeepers”, which I am pleased to note, can be read in “The Canadian”:

Both “mixeye”, and “The Canadian” allow readers to leave comments. I encourage everyone to share their thoughts. Keeping the discussion open will lead us to the truth!

The Truth Activist

Before the concept of environmentalism began to make sense to mainstream society, the environmentalist was a fringe dweller. Society regarded us as anarchists – misguided souls seeking to derail the wheels of progress.

Now that we’ve all become “environmentalists”, society has a new animal to contend with. Admittedly, it strikes one as odd, at first glance, that society should have a need for “truth activists”. Shouldn’t we all be truth activists by nature?

To accept the environmentalist, we first had to accept that our activities were killing the planet. This took decades.

To accept the truth activist, we have to accept that we are living in a world of self-deception.

Society has about as much use for truth activists today, as it did for environmentalists twenty years ago.
