"The more we do to you, the less you seem to believe we are doing it."

- Joseph Mengele, Nazi scientist

Americans don't love a good mystery. We prefer an action drama with an explosive, reassuring ending, even though it's nuclear.

In some ways, 9/11 is the most important unsolved mystery that will ever be faced or ignored by humankind. It involves ultimate questions of human trust in governance, of trust in the power of state both to manage generally, and to manage public perception of realities big and small in a time when the public has unprecedented information it could access. Of course the most expansive mystery our own country has ever not solved is the 1960s.

Context is everything. How is it that a government could become so debased it would blatantly participate in the murder of 3,000 of its people, and most importantly, how did the people ever grow so capable of digesting a totally insufficient if not impossible official explanation, when so much reasonable evidence points to the so-called terror attacks being simply a classic "false flag" operation, spawned from within?

Attacking oneself and blaming it on another country or faction is an old, proven tactic, like it or not.

The self-mutilation we saw in New York, Washington, D.C, and now elsewhere is designed to make an otherwise unacceptable militarist agenda appealing to a scared, angry, demoralized public. The curiously unsolvable anthrax attacks (using weaponized anthrax stock attributed to U.S. military labs) and the subsequent "John Mohammed the angry Black Muslim" sniper attacks all went a long way to cement this public trauma, fear, and dissent. Context is everything.


To some, it's obvious that American leadership always had a godless, racist, murderous, venal streak. Several centuries of kidnapping African human beings, forcing them through the middle passage, and breeding them for profit and pleasure indicate to me that something was wrong with our forefathers, and with the New World philosophy in general. Indians were exterminated and controlled like wolves; our government paid well for scalps and pelts.


In Vietnam, we napalmed and defoliated our allies the South Vietnamese, saying it saved them from Communism, just as forced labor and rape (as well as the rape, or at least the whoring of religion) were used by slave-masters to save Africans from savagery. The same remorseless ingenuity is evident today in a lot of what our rulership does, and in what we accept.

It profits the historically unconcerned American to leap from slavery directly to the shadow history of WWII. It's devious, but at its core it's simple.

Wall Street and American industrial interests generously funded the Nazi war machine, from the years of the I.G. Farben/Krups/master-race military build-up all the way into U.S. participation in the war. It's a matter of fact that DuPont, General Motors, the dregs of Standard Oil, IBM and various financial houses all traded directly or indirectly with the evil ones, and some traitors were reprimanded and had assets seized. One major financier of Nazi industrial/military power was Prescott Bush, progenitor of no less than three U.S. presidents, (Nixon's political patron) and ranking member of the cryptic Skull and Bones fraternity of Yale, the social club which allegedly drew its seed money from investments in the early Opium Wars theater, and its philosophic principles from German death cults and high-Nietzschean eugenic pride.


There are deep and priceless connections here worth far more than just consideration (though The Media is allergic to them, even as the 2004 contestants both expressed coy allegiance to this mysterious fraternity, and snickered openly at half-hearted inquiries.) For further ugly international connections, try Googling "H.W. Bush campaign and East European fascists," or "Operation Paperclip/CIA and Nazis."

From this dark lesson in the real bylaws of American capital investment the crypto-historian travels to Dealy Plaza, Dallas, where the first of the Kennedy brothers was publicly executed in a conspiracy. Future CIA director George H.W. Bush was in town, as were some of his anti-Castro comrades, and Nixon, too. Secret Service guardians were withdrawn from the president's limousine as it slowed to a near crawl, in violation of security protocol and foreshadowing other mysterious security distractions that took place 38 years later on September 11, 2001.


From Dallas, it is but a direct flight to "H.W." administrations full of suppressed scandals, drug explosions, assassination attempts, and illegal invasions. And then to our current terrorist mysteries.

Charlie Sheen didn't let the cat out of the bag about 9/11. The cat is kind of in the bag at the bottom of the Potomac. Some reputable scholars have consistently said just what Sheen did, and they've appeared on C-SPAN and CNN, also with no great effect. Perhaps if Captain America himself were to come forward and state unequivocally that President Yosemite Sam and Vice President Fudd should be in Moussaoui's position, we might pay attention.

Great article. As a philosophy student, though, I object to the perpetuation of the myth that Nietzsche's philosophy was at all conducive to Nazism. Nietzsche despised nationalism and socialism, indeed he rescinded his German nationality. He was passionately opposed to anti-Semitism, writing vicious responses to those of them who believed he was on their side. He referred to his sister as 'an anti-Semitic goose' after she married a racist German supremacist and attempted to set up a Teutonic colony somewhere in South America. He refused to have anything to do with her husband due to his racist, nationalistic views. His engagement in biology is far from simple, and results from his engagement with Darwinism. Any talk of 'race' in Nietzsche can not be assimilated to Nazi eugenics. It is a concept that functions more like the aristocratic idea of 'good blood'. There is no naive characterisation of races in Nietzsche. Frequently he praises those of mixed race as possessing warring interests therefore having the potential to produce more interesting individuals. (Beyond Good and Evil, 'of peoples and fatherlands') He praises the Russians and frequently the Jews. The only love of his life - an unsuccessful one - was with one of the pioneers of women's presence in the universities and a future student of Freud. He is not anti-Semitic, racist, misogynistic, or nationalistic and he has no love for Germany, which did not exist when he was born.
