Hi all

A good meeting. David Shayler got a big clap for challenging Rifkind about his "head in the sand" approach to state-sponsored, false-flag terrorism, as he was the foreign secretary who DIDN'T know about MI6's funding of Islamic extremist terrorism in Libya in an attempt to assassinate Col. Gadaffi. Belinda and I distributed leaflets before the meeting, and Noel afterwards. And I managed a bit of a speech about 911, the growing body of academic opinion which knocks down the official version, and advertised this site. I was cut off in my prime, but had lots of people talking about it afterwards.

Regards

Annie

Annie,

Sounded great - I am glad you were both able to attend and "lay the cards out" for people to see.

It must be tricky when you aren't able to show "Loose Change" or something to get people tuned in to what you are saying.

Good stuff.
