Jeffrey Kaye and Jason Leopold, Truthout: 'The 'intelligence failures' leading up to the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon are an issue the media - and lawmakers - put to bed years ago, despite the fact that new information continues to trickle out, undercutting the integrity of the official investigations into who knew what and when. It was an exclusive story Truthout published May 23 in the wake of Bin Laden s death, focusing on a little-known intelligence unit ordered to stop tracking his movements prior to 9/11, that led Iron Man to contact Truthout to share previously undisclosed documents he recently obtained under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), which appear to cast further doubt on the official narrative and suggests high-level military and intelligence officials withheld key evidence from Congressional lawmakers probing the attacks.'

9/11 and the Manufacture of Consent

Jean-Claude Paye, l'Humanite: 'If, traditionally, war is a hallmark of sovereignty, so it is with war on terror, but in this case it is not an act of sovereignty abroad only, but also at home, to control populations. It is both an aggressive act and a police operation, an action against 'rogue States', with the possibility of criminalizing social movements. Indeed, statutes (written laws) make it possible to prosecute any act the objective of which is to influence governmental policy or to exert pressure on an international organization.'

September 11th, 2011

There is not much more that needs to be said today. We all know how we felt on that day, and we all know what we've lost in this past decade. I said what I had to say about 9/11 seven years ago -- and thanks to some kind stranger who has posted it for free on YouTube, I'd like to share it with you again today: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=chj5R0Izt9s

Let s make the next decade one of peace.

P.S. I'd also like to share this essay http://www.truthdig.com/report/item/nationalism_in_the_aftermath_of_9_11_20110910/ from former NY Times Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter Chris Hedges. It is blunt and honest and worthy of reflection.
