9/11 Emergency Response at the Pentagon
more photos
Andie found some interesting FBI photos and a video of the emergency response at the Pentagon on 9/11 that I thought should be saved outside of the FBI realm.
As with anything from the FBI, the photos, some of which may be staged, and the video, which was unlisted and couldn’t be accessed without the link, may not be an entirely honest account of that day but still worth examining.
In the video, I didn’t see anything of the reported downed light poles that even this questionable site questioned. Maybe I missed it? The light poles always seemed to be a poor add-on for the official story and maybe injected for the distraction value. Also the video doesn’t show many lawn marks or much of a debris field in front of the Pentagon. ???
Update 1-30-12
Willyloman put together this graphic showing what appears to be poles on the Pentagon lawn and another screenshot from the video that looks to confirm what he is saying. (see comments below)
Who’s Your Enemy?
Our enemy? |
Just when you think you’ve heard it all, it gets worse.
I turned on the radio late last night to hear a little soothing music but … oops wrong station.
This creepy little non-human by the name of Bill Cunningham was taking hate speech to a whole new level. He almost makes Savage and Limbaugh look like choirboys. In a quick summary here’s what he was saying:
Dresden was good. Hiroshima was double good. If you’re going to fight a war, kill the civilians, burn ’em, they deserve it.
Expanding to Iran he says:
I’d warn the Iranians a few days in advance to get the heck out of Dodge. I would obliterate (a favorite word used at least a dozen times) the 20 largest cities. Women, children, they all need to die. 20 million killed would be a good start. Then we would go in and take all of their resources and bring them back to the US.
Billy boy must have thought we didn’t hear him the first time so he repeats the same thing over and over, all the while on the phone line is some racist self described jew cheering him on and breaking in twice to declare Billy’s sick words as “the greatest rant in the whole history of the world.” Seriously. You just can’t make this sort of thing up.
Billy is brain damaged and senile but I do think I heard him drooling and counting his money in the background. Being bought off is a good gig for the mentally and morally challenged.
In Pax Judaica, formerly the USA, this is what passes for free speech. Broadcasting on over 300 stations and advocating mass murder in a foreign land is AOK. Just don’t talk about overthrowing our criminal syndicate federal government and their media whores. That will get you thrown into a new American gulag.
Calling out the MSM warmongers is not enough. There are those in the alternative media that deserve a second look. Via xymphora we find Maidhc Ó Cathail taking on the change of tone at Antiwar.com and there’s a comment mention of the same thing at Global Research. Re-directing attention from Israel? As the old Lenin saying goes … “The best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves.”
Over at Twelfth Bough there is described a development in Chinese and Israeli relations that hints at World Judaica.
“Only recently a large team of Chinese state television employees visited Israel for a period of three weeks, to research the ‘Israeli miracle.’ Now they are visiting several places in the world that used to have large Jewish communities, in order to examine the Jewish community’s influence on its surroundings. Their idea is to try to decipher the secret of the Jews’ success.”
The Chinese are so adept at copying, stealing and re-engineering that this hook up with the Israelis should be a breeze but of course it would be the jews who expect to profit the most from this ‘learning’ experience.
On Martin Luther King day it’s worth a reminder that he was not killed because of his civil rights endeavors. That was acceptable to the powers that be. The opportunity to divide a population to gain more control is always acceptable to the ruling psychopaths. No, it was when he started speaking out against the war that the decision was made to eliminate that kind of talk. War is a profit center and advocating doing away with the cash cow was not to be tolerated.
From his speech Beyond Vietnam — A Time to Break Silence
Over the past two years, as I have moved to break the betrayal of my own silences and to speak from the burnings of my own heart, as I have called for radical departures from the destruction of Vietnam, many persons have questioned me about the wisdom of my path. At the heart of their concerns this query has often loomed large and loud: “Why are you speaking about the war, Dr. King?” “Why are you joining the voices of dissent?” “Peace and civil rights don’t mix,” they say. “Aren’t you hurting the cause of your people,” they ask? And when I hear them, though I often understand the source of their concern, I am nevertheless greatly saddened, for such questions mean that the inquirers have not really known me, my commitment or my calling. Indeed, their questions suggest that they do not know the world in which they live.
As I have walked among the desperate, rejected, and angry young men, I have told them that Molotov cocktails and rifles would not solve their problems. I have tried to offer them my deepest compassion while maintaining my conviction that social change comes most meaningfully through nonviolent action. But they ask — and rightly so — what about Vietnam? They ask if our own nation wasn’t using massive doses of violence to solve its problems, to bring about the changes it wanted. Their questions hit home, and I knew that I could never again raise my voice against the violence of the oppressed in the ghettos without having first spoken clearly to the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today — my own government.
Vet’s vent over the ‘event’ of urinating on the dead.
The “irony” is that is is fine for the U.S. to kill civilians, have all kinds of “collateral damage,” and friendly fire events. It is OK to drop “daisy cutter” bombs and kill with unmanned drones. It is OK to hold people for years in close confinement and without charge or trial; engage in “rendition,” or even torture prisoners ourselves. But somehow, urinating on the dead is just a step too far.
Until we address the reality of what we are creating we will continue to allow it to be created. Generation after generation of troops will have to keep the stuff of nightmares bottled up inside, or it will come out in another attack and another prison sentence.
Will soldiers be sufficiently indoctrinated to internalize the children and women of Iran as the ‘enemy?’ I challenge all drone jockeys, bomber pilots and trigger pullers to ask themselves “Is this who I want to kill?”

Luxury is not all it’s cracked up to be

Heartfelt sympathies to all the victims of the luxury Costa Cruises ship that ran aground and tilted over with 4,200 aboard.
Tragic yes. It could also be seen as symbolic.
Of what I’m not sure. Maybe you have some sort of idea.
Cruises are the corporate new age vacations. You don’t have to be rich to take one, although it helps. Fresh sea air, luxury accoutrements, all you can eat and the feeling of being rich for a little while. Could you ask for more? The chance of dying on a cruise is probably less than that of getting into a car. Food poisoning is sometimes a problem but you’ll most likely survive. Just always remember not to buy dope from the kids running up to you with their wares when you get off the boat at those exotic locations. It may be a set-up/shake down for the local cops to make a buck. Stuff happens.
My nephew just got married and his wife’s grandmother gave them a week long cruise. They loved it except for one thing … the on-board six dollar beers. Make sure you budget for that well in advance. Luxury with a buzz is not cheap.

Cruises are big business. The economy will decide how many of the companies survive. Although they are still riding the waves high, what would become of a bankrupt cruise ship? Oh yeah, they make good troop carriers. My father returned from Europe after WWII on the cruise ship Queen Elizabeth. Luxury it wasn’t.
Interesting facts from the cruise industry:
The industry forecasted 16 million passengers in 2011, a 6.6% increase over 2010.
In 2010 a record of 15 million passengers are forecasted to have cruised, with 11.1 million originating in North America.
Of the total US population that is 25 years or older, with household earnings of $40,000+, 44.6% indicates that they have taken a cruise, with 22.7% having cruised in the past three years.
It is estimated that only 19.9% of the total US population has cruised ever and 9.9% have done so within the last three years.
Cruisers average age is 50 years of age with a household income of $109,000.
Impressive numbers if true. For how long they will hold up is anyone’s guess. In a world of ever increasing disparity I won’t bet on them for the long run. But what do I know?
Cruises seem to be a reflection of our materialistic society and could be looked at as an example of modern groupthink. Lemmings do like luxury.

Yet Another 9/11 Post
Plante doing his best ‘secret agent man’ impersonation
I occasionally monitor a local neoconner radio station and found that they have added a new syndicated talker, Chris Plante. As with many in the hive of left/right diversions, he has a 9/11 connection.
Plante was a CNN reporter at the Pentagon on 9/11 and one of the first to say anything on the air at 9:48 am.
PLANTE: Well, and speaking to people here at the Pentagon, as they’re being evacuated from the building. I’m told by several people that there was, in fact, an explosion.
I was told by one witness, an Air Force enlisted – senior enlisted man, that he was outside when it occurred. He said that he saw a helicopter circle the building. He said it appeared to be a U.S. military helicopter, and that it disappeared behind the building where the helicopter landing zone is – excuse me – and he then saw a fireball go into the sky.
Whether or not the helicopter report means anything is unknown and up for debate but Plante was obviously not in on the gag from the beginning and as far as I can tell the helicopter story was not mentioned again. It’s similar to fellow CNN Pentagon correspondent Jamie McIntyre’s early report of no evidence of a plane having crashed anywhere near the Pentagon. Down the rabbit hole, not to be discussed by ‘serious’ MSM journalists ever again.
Plante and McIntyre teamed up in Sept. of 2011 for revisionist remembrances of the fateful day, propping up the ailing official story as the good little cover-upers they are.
Plante’s radio show is typical right wing drivel with fake libertarian leanings. Not worth the airwaves he occupies. I won’t listen again.
Only at times is NPR any better but not when they promote an author who blends the military commission trial of patsy ‘9/11 mastermind’ Khalid Sheikh Mohammed with the Nuremberg trials and says all is well in the bizarro world of ‘holocaust’ and ‘terrorism’ show courts.
In other 9/11 news, a local memorial site, complete with a rusty steel beam from tower one, just can’t seem to get enough donations to complete it. I’d like to think that it’s because tributes to lies don’t deserve support but that’s not it. This is an area that overall refuses to come to grips with the reality that yes, our own government will kill its own and allow a foreign tribe to help do the dirty work to usher in a profiteering war agenda and demonize a whole group of people who had nothing to do with it.
It would make a good gallows pole for the real perps and that’s something a good number would donate to.
In another little tidbit, it has been revealed that the son of an Israeli diplomat designed the New York City WTC 9/11 Memorial. Keeping it all in the family.
One more thing.
For last year’s 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terror attacks, U.S. Transportation Security Administration officials wanted their workers to remember the thousands who died. So the agency bought 70,000 commemorative bracelets — made in China.
Can this criminal mob insult us any more than they have the last ten years? Indeed they can and most certainly will but one day soon our collective remembrances will be turned around … one day soon.
Killing for …….
The Iowa caucus ……. The first step in possibly choosing the next ‘killer in chief’ or perhaps more correctly, having him chosen for us. Except for ‘rock star’ Ron Paul, the rest of the candidates have all pledged to continue the neocon/neolib wars of aggression, both foreign and domestic, expousing some form of twisted Christianity and hoping few are paying attention to their hypocrisy and greed or the hidden hands that pull the strings and wrap around their necks when necessary.
“A highwayman is as much a robber when he plunders in a gang as when single; and a nation that makes an unjust war is only a great gang.” –Benjamin Franklin
The son of a Sunday-school teacher and a church deacon, Chris Kyle, the deadliest sniper in US history, credits a higher authority for his longest kill.
“God blew that bullet and hit him.”
“You see us? We’re the people kicking your ass. Fear us, because we will kill you, motherf–ker.”

Game plans – Protocol # 7
The intensification of armaments, the increase of police forces – are all essential for the completion of the plans.
We must create ferments, discords and hostility. Therein we gain a double advantage. In the first place we keep in check all countries, for they will know that we have the power whenever we like to create disorders or to restore order. All these countries are accustomed to see in us an indispensable force of coercion. In the second place, by our intrigues we shall tangle up all the threads which we have stretched into the cabinets of all States by means of the political, by economic treaties, or loan obligations.
In order to succeed in this we must use great cunning and penetration during negotiations and agreements, but, as regards what is called the “official language,” we shall keep to the opposite tactics and assume the mask of honesty and complacency. In this way the peoples and governments of the GOYIM, whom we have taught to look only at the outside whatever we present to their notice, will still continue to accept us as the benefactors and saviours of the human race.
We must be in a position to respond to every act of opposition by war with the neighbors of that country which dares to oppose us: but if these neighbors should also venture to stand collectively together against us, then we must offer resistance by a universal war.
In a word, to sum up our system of keeping the governments of the goyim in in check, we shall show our strength to one of them by terrorist attempts and to all, if we allow the possibility of a general rising against us, we shall respond with the guns of America or China.
THE PRESS, WHICH, WITH A FEW EXCEPTIONS THAT MAY BE DISREGARDED, IS ALREADY ENTIRELY IN OUR HANDS.
Protocol # 10
WE NAME PRESIDENTS
We shall establish the responsibility of presidents.
By that time we shall be in a position to disregard forms in carrying through matters for which our impersonal puppet will be responsible.
In order that our scheme may produce this result we shall arrange elections in favor of such presidents as have in their past some dark, undiscovered stain, then they will be trustworthy agents for the accomplishment of our plans out of fear of revelations and from the natural desire of everyone who has attained power, namely, the retention of the privileges, advantages and honor connected with the office of president.
The president will, at our discretion, interpret the sense of such of the existing laws as admit of various interpretation; he will further annul them when we indicate to him the necessity to do so, besides this, he will have the right to propose temporary laws, and even new departures in the government constitutional working, the pretext both for the one and the other being the requirements for the supreme welfare of the State.
We shall obtain the power of destroying little by little, step by step, all that at the outset when we enter on our rights, we are compelled to introduce into the constitutions of States to prepare for the transition to an imperceptible abolition of every kind of constitution, and then the time is come to turn every form of government into OUR DESPOTISM.
The recognition of our despot may also come before the destruction of the constitution; the moment for this recognition will come when the peoples, utterly wearied by the irregularities and incompetence – a matter which we shall arrange for – of their rulers, will clamor: “Away with them and give us one king over all the earth who will unite us and annihilate the causes of disorders – frontiers, nationalities, religions, State debts – who will give us peace and quiet which we cannot find under our rulers and representatives.”
But you yourselves perfectly well know that TO PRODUCE THE POSSIBILITY OF THE EXPRESSION OF SUCH WISHES BY ALL THE NATIONS IT IS INDISPENSABLE TO TROUBLE IN ALL COUNTRIES THE PEOPLE’S RELATIONS WITH THEIR GOVERNMENTS SO AS TO UTTERLY EXHAUST HUMANITY WITH DISSENSION, HATRED, STRUGGLE, ENVY AND EVEN BY THE USE OF TORTURE, BY STARVATION, BY THE INOCULATION OF DISEASES, BY WANT, SO THAT THE “GOYIM” SEE NO OTHER ISSUE THAN TO TAKE REFUGE IN OUR COMPLETE SOVEREIGNTY IN MONEY AND IN ALL ELSE.
