New video from We are Change New York features an interview
with first responder Frank Silecchia, who discovered the famous
steel cross recovered from Ground Zero. Silecchia reveals that
he has questions over the attacks and pledges support for the
9/11 truth movement.
Silecchia worked at Ground Zero for ten months
and on the third day he discovered the broken steam beam in
the shape of a cross that still stands in the vicinity of the
World Trade Center today.
Silecchia found the twenty foot cross amongst
the debris of 6 World Trade Center and it quickly became an
icon for the first responders who left messages on it and prayed
before it.
Many of the families of the victims of 9/11 asked
for the cross to be preserved as part of the permanent memorial.
When asked by We are Change members if he had
any remarks on the eighth anniversary of 9/11, Silecchia responded
"See the shirt you're wearing? I believe it" referring
to an "Investigate 9/11" t-shirt.
"See the shirt he wears, the shirt he wears,"
Silecchia said pointing to two other members of we are change
with the same shirts, "I believe it because it is true.
They cannot prove otherwise"
"There's no reason why they can't explain why there's so
many flashes along side the building" Silecchia said, referring
to sounds of explosives in the towers that were also witnessed
by firefighters on 9/11.
"7 took to long to come down." Silecchia
added.
"That was full of technology that couldn't
be seen by human eyes so it had to be destroyed. They took it
down."
"They think we are idiots. We the People,
by the People, put them into office and they think we're morons."
Silecchia said.
"As long as the old man is alive, Bush, you're
not going catch Bin Laden. Because that's the deal they have
got." he added, referring to the fact that before 9/11
George H.W. Bush and Osama Bin Laden were business partners
with the Carlyle Group.
"9/11 needs a tombstone,"Silecchia says
of his efforts to preserve the WTC Cross. "It's a sign
of healing, it's not a sign of religion, it's a sign of faith.
Faith is love and hope."
