In 2004, when David Ray Griffin published his first book about 9/11,
"The New Pearl Harbor", the book was largely overlooked by mainstream sources.

Now, in 2008, Griffin's seventh book about 9/11, "The New Pearl Harbor
Revisited", has been named "Web Pick of the Week" by Publishers Weekly
(http://www.publishersweekly.com/article/CA6617001.html?
industryid=47159).

Weekly reviews from this trusted and prestigious publisher have guided the book trade, including booksellers, publishers, librarians, and literary agents, for 136 years

Dr. Griffin's book can be found at good bookstores or purchased at a discounted price from 911Truth.org (http://www.911truthstore.com/index.php?cPath=2&sort=1a&page=5) or from Amazon.com (http://www.amazon.com/New-Pearl-Harbor-Revisited-Cover-Up/dp/15665672 97/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1227558585&sr=1-1).

That is good news. I purchased mine just this week. I should have it today or tomorrow

I'd like to see Dr Griffin put some of the money hes making from his books back into the global 911 truth campaign.

I certainly wont be purchasing any more of his books however I'd recommend those embarking on their 911 truth journey certainly to read his first book as it skillfully totally destroys the credibility of the official conspiracy theory that 19 Arab Muslims with boxcutters were responsible for the crime.

How much money do you reckon Dr Griffin has made so far out of 911?

[TonyGosling]

Quite frankly I don't care how much money he's made. Good luck to him if he makes ten million dollars!
I always see the controlled mainstream press trot out this flaccid argument when they see anyone who is against the establishment orthodoxy doing well.
It's grey propaganda isn't it?
It's a no brainer.

[scubadiver]

I would suspect he probably hasn't made that much money out of it since has travelled widely. We are funding his lectures and talks. Is that such a bad thing?

[acrobat74]

Excellent news, thank you.

[Shoestring]

Anyone who doesn't yet have a copy of this excellent book can order it now from Amazon.co.uk:

It always annoys me to see people who are working hard with good intentions being slatted for "making money".

Does anyone know what is involved in writing a book? Or how much money you get? Think about it!

People like Dr Griffin and Alex Jones are pumping tons of money and enthusiasm into the truth movement.

If you are upset about people making money join the Troskitite Party and cellebrate gulags!

Writing books is not easy, researching something like 9/11 in the way Dr Griffin has is a full time occupation. He will probably make in the region of $50,000 to $100,000 for each book. If you think that's a good earner go get you notebook out and start writing and then post back here in 12 months time to tell us how far you've got.

As Scubadiver says, DRG uses his book money to fund his tours and lectures.

We're currently working on a major European tour next April, for which he has stated that he does not want any payment, as the book sales support his work.

[Dogsmilk]

I don't see why DRG should be singled out without every other writer on any subject related to some kind of campaign being regarded similarly.

Annie states:-

[QuitTheirClogs]

After reading The New Pearl Harbor again -- and reading between the lines -- I see David Ray Griffin as a somewhat reluctant 9/11 researcher. There was a need for a credible but accessible book to break into the US mainstream. The text could have been written by several people -- Nafeez Ahmed, Paul Thompson, Michel Chossudovsky, Barrie Zwicker, John McMurtry etc -- but it opened up a much wider audience having DRG author the book. I’m sure he would have preferred a quiet life and to have carried on writing about theology and stuff.

[acrobat74]

Well that's the thing isn't it...you sit there believing what you want to believe...and suddenly along comes something like this event and gives you a hard kick in the butt

That's why the propagandist rats of officialdom have prevailed for so long: all they need to do is to give Joe Bloggs a reasonably credible scenario for what he wants to believe.

We're around to ensure that Joes get their kicks.

It's a small percentage of people who value truth higher than bliss and won't give in to intellectual cowardice. You need to be driven toward deviating from the flock.

He is David Ray Griffin . . . he is my father . . . and my mother . . . my brother . . . my friend. He is you . . . and me. He is all of us.

[scubadiver]

I have read the first chapter. Although still in his own style of writing, the clarity of argument is far better.

Statement by Yukihisa Fujita:

[alexjonesfan]

Sunday March 30, 2008

Alex Jones interviews Japanese MP Yukihisa Fujita of the Democratic Party of Japan, a member of the House of Councillors in the Diet of Japan (national legislature), who questions the official 9/11 narrative/myth and the endless "war on terror." Mr Fujita may be the single most important person to step forward htis year and ask hard questions about the catalyzing event that changed the shape of world history.

9/11: 'the new Pearl Harbor'

By William R. Woodward -- December 7, 2008
http://www.seacoastonline.com/articles/20081207-OPINION-812070320

We can choose complacency in the belief that someone else will handle the evils of declining natural resources and war, poverty and white-collar crime. Or we can recognize the divine-within-us as a struggle against the demonic and join others in building a just world.

Opportunities include visiting 911truth.org and patriotsquestion911.com, or joining the Seacoast 9/11 Questions Group. Many want to persuade legislators to implement an impartial investigation of 9/11.

Contrasting ideologies compete for our minds and hearts. The DVD "Obsession" was tucked into your newspapers recently. It depicts the "threat of radical Islam to Western Civilization." Most of the world sees reality the other way around: the threat of imperial U.S., U.K., and Israel to Eastern Civilization. Take your pick. Your children will judge you on your civil courage, as my generation in Germany judged its parents. (I was born in 1944.)

[scubadiver]

I have finished the book and I think it is probably as far as it will get in terms of the the evidence. DRG concludes by saying it is now up to the press to start asking the questions if it is going anywhere.

The chapter on the identity of the hijackers is 60 pages and some of it is about the identity of Atta in the Able Danger programme.

[TonyGosling]

I'm afraid you can forget that, since the press is bought and paid for by some of the same far right Zionist and elitist forces that have been supporting Cheney and his allies' psychotic games.

[scubadiver]

[TonyGosling]

Still, though I contradict myself, it's increasingly worth a try (or five) as time goes on.
We can never give up on this mission.
