Great article on http://www.gnn.tv :-
Five Years Later: The Official Story Falls Apart
http://www.gnn.tv/articles/2558/Five_Years_Later_The_Official_Story_Fa lls_Apart
| Quote: | State Department, media launch assault on 9/11 dissent
The government is getting desperate. Two major polls recently showed that a growing number of Americans doubt the official story around 9/11. On Aug. 28, the State Department responded with a direct assault against “misinformation,” by publishing a statement that attacked the fringes of the 9/11 Truth Movement. A major media brouhaha immediately followed. The New York Times published a sarcastic sniff at 9/11 activism, titled “U.S. Counters 9/11 Theories Of Conspiracy” on September 2. Time magazine ran a sympathetic but dismissive review of the popular 9/11 film “Loose Change.” ABC/Disney chimed in recently with a docu-drama based on the 9/11 Commission Report.
But not everyone is going along with the program. In New York City, the Sept. 1 edition of AM New York did a positive front-page overview of the 9/11 Truth Movement’s claims. In August, Seattle’s Post-Intelligencer did the same. Even the heads of the 9/11 Commission, widely criticized as too close to the government they were tasked to investigate, recently released a new book that admits they were pre-destined to fail. Popular Mechanics has turned their anti-conspiracy theory feature “9/11: Debunking the Myths” into a book. Five-time Emmy award winning journalist Peter Lance just wrote Triple Cross about the funky CIA connections of bin Laden’s right-hand man, Ali Mohamed. Triple was turned into a documentary at the National Geographic TV channel, but before it was broadcast Aug. 28, Lance removed his name from the film. “They hijacked my work,” he told reporters, “The feds have gotten to them, there is no doubt.” |

I considered this a thought provoking article too and one that might encourage debate about the focus of our efforts.
I posted it here in response to Abandoned Ego's call for same.

Lt Col Anthony A Shaffer, Senior Intelligence Officer, US Army Reserve testifed before the the Congress House Armed Services Committee HASC of February 2006.
The PDF scan of Shaffer's statement is here:

In Sept 2005 just two days before Lt Col Shaffer was due to testify to the Senate Judicairy Committee he had his security clearance revoked due to "discrepancies over his mileage reimbursement" and "personal phone calls" made on an office cell phone.

Shaffer was prevented from testifying in person to the Judiciary Committee by the DoD and so was represented by his lawyer along with Mr. James Smith, a defense contractor at the time with Orion Scientific Systems.

The stories told by those who testified at the Judiciary Committee take your breath away.
These are the sources for the destruction of Able Danger data. The two faces of Mohammed Atta. 9/11 not mentioning Able Danger etc
And they call us Conspiracy Theorists.
Read each testimony here: http://judiciary.senate.gov/hearing.cfm?id=1606
