London Times Smears 9/11 Truth Movement As Racist, Nazi
Like, Stupid
Uses "Birthers" phenomenon to discredit and
attack legitimate researchers

A vicious attack piece in the Rupert Murdoch owned London Times
has linked the so called "birther" phenomenon with
9/11 Truth, in an effort to imply that the movement is inherently
racist and "intellectually scary" (read stupid).
In an article entitled To
tell you the truth, these conspiracists scare me, Times
"journalist" James Bone equates those who question
the government version of events on 9/11 with "crackpot
birthers", referring to those who have questioned Barack
Obama's eligibility to serve as President.
"Perhaps the most intellectually scary assignment
I have had in recent years was to cover a meeting of the so-called
'9/11 Truth Movement' in the East Village, New York." Bone
writes.
"This gruesome assortment of conspiracy theorists insists
that the attacks on the US of September 11, 2001 were an inside
job." he continues.
"It is easy to mock this deluded gang of
ageing hippies, anarchists and anti-Semites." he then declares
in a statement at once both sweepingly general and libelously
offensive.
"I found the event not just disconcerting
but also extremely revealing. I had never understood better
how so many Germans could have embraced the crackpot theories
of Nazism." Bone concludes.
Bone should be reminded that the most
recent national polls show that an overwhelming
majority of Americans have doubts about the official story behind
9/11.
Are most Americans dangerous crackpot Nazi-like
racists? Bone seems to think so.
"The assembled conspiracists quickly agreed
that the twin towers had been packed with explosives by the
Government, since jet fuel did not burn hot enough to melt the
buildings' steel frame." Bone also writes, implying that
the evidence stretches only as far as the invented theory of
a handful of paranoid delusionals.
Bone fails to point out that there are scores
of peer reviewed studies that have appeared in engineering and
physics journals that question the collapse of the towers and
building 7.
He fails to address the fact that the latest study
produced by former Brigham Young University physicist Dr. Steven
E. Jones and published in the Open
Chemical Physics Journal, found traces of highly
engineered explosive material in World Trade Center dust samples.
Instead Bone trots out the tired book-selling
mantra of already multiple
time discredited Popular Mechanics editor James
Meigs, in order to bolster his slander on 9/11 Truth, as if
the opinion of a former Video Review and Entertainment
Weekly editor provides any credibility to his attack.
Bone also attacks the strawman of the "no
planers", those who claim that all footage of the planes
crashing into the twin towers was fake. As we have exhaustively
documented, those people are not representative of the 9/11
Truth movement as a whole, in fact they are a vast minority.
Bone should also be reminded that there are literally
thousands of professional architects, engineers, political leaders,
medical workers, pilots, scholars, students and people of all
professions who have signed petitions calling for a new investigation
into 9/11.
Bone should also know that the
largest group of victims' family members, headed
by Bill Doyle has charged government complicity in the attacks.
With this galling hit piece Bone is grouping every
single one of these people under the umbrella term of "stupid
racist lunatic".
That's a hell of a lot of potential libel claims
to be dealing with.

Bone links the "birther" theory with
9/11 Truth via Pennsylvania lawyer Philip Berg, who filed a
lawsuit in 2004 charging president George W. Bush and 154 others
with complicity in the 9/11 attacks.
Berg appeared
on the Alex Jones show yesterday, to explain his
role in a new lawsuit challenging the eligibility of Barack
Obama to be President of the United States.
Alex Jones and Infowars has remained neutral on the "birther"
conspiracy from day one, simply because at this time it is unproven
conjecture. Just six months into the presidency, Alex Jones
produced a full length feature film documenting the problems
with Barack Obama. Everything contained within The Obama
Deception is certified fact, thus the birth certificate
issue did not even arise within the documentary.
Other researchers such as What Really Happened.com's Mike Rivero
have warned that the flames of the "birther" movement
may be intentionally fanned by Obama aides in order to later
capitalize from disproving the rumors, which would have the
knock on effect of silencing legitimate criticism of the Obama
administration in general.
With Obama's ratings plunging faster than any other president
in history, this would certainly be beneficial to him.
Indeed, it seems this may already be unfolding as the latest
birth certificate much lauded by a number of conservative blogs
and websites as proof positive that Obama was born outside the
US has
turned out to be a fake.
If Obama had wanted to end the saga of the birth certificate
he would have simply authorized the release of the original
document a long time ago, instead the issue is being allowed
to drag on and escalate to a ridiculous level in the media.
The 9/11 Truth Movement is no more connected to the "birthers"
than it is to those who believe in the Loch Ness monster. To
link the two issues is disingenuous at best, and at worst represents
a concerted effort to relegate eight years of serious research
and activism to the level of unsubstantiated conspiracy theory.
