On the eve of the 15th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks, activists from around the world prepare to come to NYC to continue seeking answers about who funded the attacks and what caused the buildings to fall at near free-fall speed – but do the American people even care?
On Friday July 15, the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) published the newly declassified 28 pages of the 2002 Joint Congressional Inquiry into Intelligence Community Activities Before and After the Terrorist Attacks of September 11, 2001. The 28 pages were classified by former President George W. Bush shortly after the report was released in 2002.
The long-classified pages make up the bulk of a section titled “Part 4: Finding, Discussion and Narrative Regarding Certain Sensitive National Security Matters.” Former Senator Bob Graham, a previous chair for the House Intelligence Committee who has been extensively involved in the fight to release the pages, told CNN that he was “very pleased” by the announcement.
“It is going to increase the questioning of the Saudis’ role supporting the hijackers,” Graham told CNN. “I think of this almost as the 28 pages are sort of the cork in the wine bottle. And once it’s out, hopefully the rest of the wine itself will start to pour out.”
The report states:
While in the United States, some of the September 11 hijackers were in contact with, and received support or assistance from, individuals who may be connected to the Saudi Government. There is information, primarily from FBI sources, that at least two of those individuals were alleged by some to be Saudi intelligence officers.
“The report also reveals that the suspected Saudi intelligence officers worked for companies that had ties to both the Saudi government, and Al Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden,” Tony Cartalucci recently reported. “It is very clear that Saudi Arabia played a role in the 9/11 attacks, as well as in terrorism of all kinds around the world before and after the attacks.”
Cartalucci continues, “Those who spirited Saudi agents and officials out of the country, protecting them from further investigation regarding their role in 9/11, are likely linked to those Americans who helped their Saudi counterparts organize and carry out the attacks.”
In spite of the clear connection between officials connected to the Saudi government and the alleged hijackers, the Saudi government and kingdom declared the release of the 28 pages a victory, claiming that it vindicates their nation.
“Now we know for sure that the conspiracy theorists were wrong: There is no smoking gun in the 28 pages. All they contain is a list of questions and possible leads for exploration in later investigations,” Abdullah Al-Saud, the Saudi ambassador to the United States, wrote in an op-ed for the L.A. Times.
Unfortunately, if unsurprisingly, the conspiracy theorists are still not satisfied. They point out that portions of the 28 pages remain classified and insist that the American government must be hiding something nefarious from the people.
(For more information on the 9/11 Truth movement please see this mini-documentary from The Conscious Resistance Network)
Indeed, Al-Saud is correct, many Americans and researchers of the 9/11 attacks are not prepared to concede just yet. Despite what the Saudi government claims, the documents show clear ties to Saudi Arabia. Still, many in the 9/11 Truth movement are cautious of the 28 pages, with some calling the whole fiasco a psychological operation being conducted on the American people. What is the purpose of the PsyOp? The idea would be that “the powers that wish they were” allow a controlled release of the low hanging fruit (28 pages) and focus attention on Saudi Arabia rather than possible connections to the U.S. government, Pakistan, or Israel.
This allows the public (and some 9/11 researchers) to feel like there has been a victory and now we can all go back to normal life. Also, this keeps the conversation on the 28 pages and not on the other anomalies which occurred on September 11, 2001. There is also the fact that it has been public record for many years that the majority of the alleged hijackers had ties to Saudi Arabia.
The fact that these pages would be released at all should be celebrated, but it should not cause the 9/11 Truth Movement to rest for a single moment. With the 15th anniversary approaching in less than 2 months this a grand opportunity to have conversations about the many, many questions surrounding the attacks. After all, even if the Saudis were involved, it does not explain how the buildings could fall at near free-fall speed or how or why World Trade Center 7 fell despite not being hit by a plane.
Regardless of whether or not you believe the 28 pages are the end of the 9/11 Truth search or just another distraction, the American people are tired of being lied to by their government. There is a growing discontent in the nation right now and many of the crimes perpetuated by the government against the people have been allowed in the name of keeping people safe from terror attacks. Simply put, exposing 9/11 destroys the whole Police and Surveillance State.
For 15 years architects, engineers, actors, scientists, pilots, firefighters, activists, and family members of the victims have raised a wide range of questions related to the funding of the attacks, the physics of the buildings’ collapse, the possibility of controlled demolition or other exotic weapon used to bring the buildings down, and much, much more.
For the 15th anniversary, the collective “9/11 Truth” movement will descend on New York City to protest and rally in the streets. If you have questions about 9/11 please come to New York City or organize in your city. Activists with We Are Change NYC will rally at Ground Zero and other important sites throughout the city on Saturday September 10 and Sunday September 11.

Most never did and for those of us who did care; it’s too late for the truth. At this point the truth about the US Government’s involvement in the attacks would do a great deal more harm then good. The UN would simply use our government’s criminal insanity as an excuse to expedite their globalist agenda and strip us of our sovereignty effectively wiping the notion of liberty off of the face of the Earth. We had a window there, before the official story was cemented into the collective consciousness, where we may have figured it out and maybe even taken back our country but the American people, lacking in both balls and intellect, refused to act when action was required. It will forever be a side-show cold case like JFK. All we can do now is work as hard as we possibly can to keep Hillary Clinton out of the white house else we’ll end up disarmed and totally FCKD.
I think most Americans did not want to know the truth right from the start. To confront what really happened and who was really responsible was just too much to take for the great majority. What is most obvious to one and all is that the official story is most certainly not the truth but we are completely powerless when it comes to finding out the truth and anyway what would the next step be ? A complete break down of society ?
No, I think it will be another mystery just like the JFK killing cover-up since the 60`s .
Interesting that both the first commenters here are saying there’s no point in knowing the truth, in their own different ways.
I humbly suggest that finding out the truth about any situation like 9/11 would be so unprecedented in US history that there is no way to predict how it could end. Violent revolution? Federal reform? Mass lawsuit? Or just a very slow and subtle disintegration of a global power that isn’t really doing anyone much good, least of all its own people?
To suggest that apathy or chaotic social breakdown are the only two reactions that could occur, is to cherrypick two of the mass media’s favourite obsessions out of a near-endless list of things that could happen if the truth came out. I think the vast majority of people would be willing to take a gamble and let the chips fall where they may. If nothing else, it would be kind of refreshing to hear a politician telling the truth for a change!!
The headline itself is problematic: asking if a condition still exists implies that is ever did.
Although there will always remain many questions unanswered, truths unresolved, enough information is readily available to average people to make ignorance of the basic nature of 9/11 a choice.
I like to think that future generations will choose knowledge over ignorance.
My my optimism puts me in league with you.
My hopes, aspirations, and projections dictate future generations will learn from our mistakes and realize that not playing the game of the paranoid control freaks that have stolen power is the only winning move. We have outgrown their manipulation and now see the severity of our situation. We cannot afford the loss of time and resources that they are encouraging us to throw away. The corrupt that are in power in this nation and many others are self serving tyrants who only seek more power and control, as representatives of the many throughout time that have squandered much at the expense of good people. They have proven themselves nothing more than parasites at the top depleting us of necessary resources to benefit all good people. Now is the time for us to take a stand and rebuke this liability so that we can finally move towards a future fitting a moral and intelligent society.
We have reached a point where we can no longer tolerate the existence and continued abuse of these people who are not worthy of the positions they have risen to.
There is no Rule of Law for the slime that carried this out. They are international and unlimited resources.
Thanks to the unfed being given up to them in 1913.
You would have made a good National Socialist back in the day.
I’m disgusted with the responses from William beeby and Matthew.
This is exactly why we are manhadled by the criminals who have stolen power. When so called men in this nation gets b slapped by these bullies they grovel instead of standing up for themselves. My synicism tells me these two commenters are shills trying to convince people giving up is the answer. It’s NEVER to late if the truth, and the truth always stands unwavering. It is one of the constants in this world.
From William, we are completely powerless, and it would break down society.
Yeah, right… Like we are heading in a direction that isn’t self destructive. Speak for yourself coward. As long as I am drawing breath I will NEVER give up. Stop trying to recruit people in your defeatist mindset.
Matthews hypocrisy states others lacked both balls to act at a certain time but now is useless. We shouldn’t do anything now so just work hard to keep the next criminal out of power.
This is the real cancer people must resist. The herd mentality, that censors itself. The defeatist and apologists that give you the cowards way out. After all this relieves you of any responsibility of being a healthy and engaged citizen. They are just vouyers of their own lives. Doing nothing but watching. Making excuses why they can’t act. These are the conditioned people who stand around recording an event instead of jumping in and actually helping someone in need. They are divided and will just watch as others act.
An audience. Perfect a partners for the side show. The abusive overlords on stage while you applaud them.
nice comment, have you read Society Of The Spectacle by Guy Debord
Although I share your basic sentiment, I don’t quite as deeply denounce the discouragement of contemporary observers’ belief that the truth will never be acknowledged; nor do I share their long-term pessimism.
After fifteen years of public acceptance of what are clearly absurd assertions, it is easy to assume that the lies will stand forever.
But the pessimists fail to acknowledge the evolution of historical analysis of similar events: the USS Maine, the RMS Lusitania, the Gulf of Tonkin incident to name a few. Time is on the side of rationality and critical thinking; with the 9/11 deception occurring in the information age, and having been publicly witnessed and documented in real-time to such a greater degree than the aforementioned events, truth has the potential to prevail more completely and immediately.
More people get it as the government continues with their absurd corruption like false flags and rigging elections – as people wake up they start rethinking and questioning everything. The puppet masters are getting sloppy with impatience and Delusions of Grandeur, they will do themselves in.
Imagine a 9/11 truther warning people away from the ‘herd mentality’.
You really can’t make up stuff that stupid.
“It is going to increase the questioning of the Saudis’ role supporting the hijackers,” Graham told CNN.
Since there were no hijackers this is all part of the deception !
Or does this look real to you ?
.
Your graphic would be amusing if it weren’t one of the many tragic absurdities presented as part the official conspiracy theory, so deeply rooted in the 9/11 mythology used to excuse so much injustice and suffering here and abroad.
“Let’s roll,” indeed.
Your graphic is exactly the same that happened with the twin towers except the hole is already there and proves the point that commercial planes cant fly through buildings without leaving a trail of plane debris behind. Also 110 story buildings are not designed to fall on their footprint in less than 15 seconds from fires. The same goes for 46 storey buildings too.
No buildings fell “from fires”.
Your bald faced,cultling misrepresentation omits the facts that three towers were smashed into by fuel laden jumbo jets going over 400 MPH and by huge beams and other heavy debris.
How hard is it to actually get the story straight before weighing in?
Your ‘no-plane’ shenanigans impresses nobody but the deranged.
Tell me again how 2 110 storey buildings can fall against the most resistant part of a building that is vertically in less than 15 seconds and also a third building, Trade Centre Building 7 did fall in its footprint in a spell bounding less than 10 seconds, that is nearly free falling speed like as if you jumped of the top of that same building you would beat it by a few seconds?
You’re inhaling way too much propaganda.
7 took about 17 seconds to collapse.Try avoiding the Controlled Demolition Cult before taking another stab at this story.
Andy I dont know what medication you are on but the official NIST report states that once collapse initiated, WTC 1 and WTC 2 fell in approximately 11 seconds and 9 seconds respectively, each coming down in “essentially in free fall”. WTC 7 collapse by NIST’s Dr. Sunder states that it fell in 5.4 seconds.
Suggest you check your sources first before making incorrect statements.
Also even if WTC 7 took 17 seconds as you claim is still very much in free fall so I dont know what you learnt at school but it seems true facts were not taught.
Andrew,a fan of medicated goo: #7 took about 20 seconds to finally fall and was actually in the process of weakening for many hours after having been set on fire and compromised by beams and debris from Tower 1’s collapse,which gouged a 12 story high hole in its south face.The face NEVER shown by the cult you get your info from.
I guess you’d like to forget its internal collapse,the penthouses folding down before the outer shell coming down quickly at the end in the 7 or 8 seconds that you worship.
What you need to do is read the oral testimonies of the FDNY.I linked an article (“wtc7lies”) in an earlier comment that demolishes your rubbish and is heavily sourced with what the only men that matter said as they witnessed the entire thing up close and personal.
You’re working with tainted information,lies actually,and you’re the one who needs to go back to school.
Sunder never said any such thing,How sad that you would lie so blatantly,this is the world wide web and people are reading and watching.
Apparently the structure of 7 was unusual having been built over a Con Ed sub station,hence a short period of free fall as it collapsed globally.Means nothing.The FDNY knew it would collapse for hours as a bulge had developed,it was creaking and groaning and they had no way to address the fires which were spreading all through the tower.
A perimeter was created and everyone was “pulled” away from the inevitable collapse.
I’m sure you haven’t fallen for the “Larry said ‘pull it'” malarkey,right?
If you have,well,then here’s your chance to get out of the rut you’re in and rubbish that nonsense once and for all.
You dont have to be a scientist to understand that steel columns do no give way just because they got a bit hot. But I am sure you can tell me why on WTC 7 there was not 46 concrete floors stacked one on top of the other just like a pack of cards. What happened to all the concrete floors and why did it all turn into dust?
The same goes for WTC 1 & 2 Imagine 110 slabs of concrete in a nice stack just like a pack of cards. Forgetting about all the beam structures that were holding up the concrete floors and assuming that each thickness of concrete was 200mm. If we multiply that by 109 gives us a total of 21 metres high slabs of concrete floors. But we did not get that did we? Where did all the concrete go? Add in the steel trusses that each floor sat on and suggesting that they were about 600mm high and multiply that by 109 again gives us a total height of floor and steel trusses equalling a height of approx 86 metres. Something dont add up but I am sure you can work that out?
Yuri Bezmenov clearly knew Andy when he said this about idiological subversion/ psychological warfare :
…. What it basically means is: to change the perception of reality of every American that despite of the abundance of information no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, their families, their community, and their country.
It’s a great brainwashing process which goes very slow and is divided into FOUR basic STAGES.
The first one being DEMORALIZATION. It takes from 15 to 20 years to demoralize a nation. Why that many years? Because this is the minimum number of years required to educate one generation of students in the country of your enemy exposed to the ideology of their enemy. In other words, the ideology of Marxism-Leninism is being pumped into the soft heads of at least three generation of American students without being challenged or counterbalanced by the basic values of Americanism, american patriotism…. The result? The result you can see… the people who graduated in the 1960’s, dropouts or half-baked intellectuals, are now occupying the positions of power in the government, civil service, business, mass media, and educational systems. You are stuck with them. You can’t get through to them. They are contaminated. They are programmed to think and react to certain stimuli in a certain pattern [alluding to Pavlov]. You cannot change their mind even if you expose them to authentic information. Even if you prove that white is white and black is black, you still can not change the basic perception and the logic of behavior. In other words for these people the process of DEMORALIZATION is C O M P L E T E and I R R E V E R S I B L E
Countering easily disprovable points with hard facts is now “psychological warfare”??!
Honestly,all I did was inform you about some important basic facts about #7 which can be easily ascertained by checking the sources I offered.
Apparently that was enough to trip your nutty philosophy wire and tumble down the riverbank right into the drink.
How ironic that your predilection to being played for a useful idiot by a lying cult crushes your ability to see the easy stuff.
There may be no hope for you unless you read the paper I linked and watch the video,both of which illustrate neatly that you are one gullible sap.
Hint:the FDNY doesn’t blow up buildings that are on fire and doesn’t take orders from Zionist landlords to do such things.
Best,Andy
You are right and it is not just in America. When I first saw those planes disappearing into the WTC 1&2 which was repeated continuously I could not believe what I was seeing. How could a plane just lose itself inside a building with no damage? I wish my car could do that when I had an accident. Then my thoughts turned to how to put the fires out and the rebuilding of the damage etc. Next thing I see them imploding in themselves all the way to the ground. WOW!!! I can understand where the so called plane entered and the fires would have weakened some parts of those floors and above but how could it weaken the rest of the lower floors?
Well of course the reason was the pancake effect still did not make sense because all the vertical columns would have to be removed or all the horizontal connections to the columns would have to shear at exactly the same time. There had to be some further assistance which means that 19 Arabs with box cutters could never have imagined this in the first place.
I would like to see this done again with some terrorists since it worked so well the first time it could happen again and then I may believe it.
They want everyone to believe this was a convetional “collapse”.
It was not.
And it wasn’t a collapse at all. There was just no resistance…… But you know this already. Just those poor suckers like Andy don’t want to know.
They have never read a detective novel in their live. LOL

Not only are you a dim bulb falling for all the lies about #7,you’re also a nutjob who fell for the “no-planes” nonsense.
I feel bad for you,you’ll never be able to suss things out at this rate.
Apparently the nutty truther who wrote this story OR the censors at Activist Post are hypersensitive,as my links keep getting erased.
How utterly typical of the dead movement it’s trying to protect.
What rsponse do you expect ?
An “u” ?
Cute,tiger!
It was a comment that was put in a moderation queue but later showed up.In between I got an e-mail from the NSA with your photo and had to spread the word.
They’re after you,key man.
28 additional pages, with major portions redacted is supposed to satisfy those that want the truth revealed? I think not! Waiting more than a year after 9/11 to form a “commission” of cronies, destroying evidence, and the many LIES that have come out since should give everyone a glimce into who was really responsible!
Yes, we still want the truth.
We are never going away!
99% of you already have,with your tails between your legs after having the miserable talking points debunked,destroyed and demolished one-by-one.
The anniversaries are merely the time of year when the opportunists who cash in on this nonsense,like Les Jamison,Luke Rudkukski,Alex Jones and the totally suspicious lawyer,William Pepper: “ooooh,Che,Martin King,Eric Hufschmid,they’re all great”,rear their ugly heads to fleece the wide-eyed newbies.
9/11 truth has been dead as a doornail for many years now.It’s now the Controlled Demolition Cult.
So you’re 9/11 denier. Are you also a Holocaust denier. Usually ‘deniers’ also deny the muslim invasion of the U.S. and the fact that Obama is an illegitimate muslim Manchurian candidate. So how do you stand on those before I proclaim you as a CIA sabotaging infiltrator.
There’s no denying that you just negated any possibility of ever being taken seriously,Goober.
I read your other comments too. You’ve just decided on a path of despair. Ever heard of ‘lead, follow or get out of the way’? Well, get out of the way!
I always stay miles away from idiots like you.
Yes I care more than ever. I believe more Americans than ever are connecting the dots and for many of us this journey begins with 911 truth.
Really ?
What made you think this ?
To you this government version looks real ?
This photo,according to your counselor,was taken after you spent 3 days watching “Loose Change” 56 times in a row and were then informed that Dylan,Korey and the other buck-toothed blowhard excised 90% of it for a new version with newer more exciting speculations,disinformation and misinformation.
To be followed by numerous new versions which still got it wrong.Or,as a truther might put it,”one more in a series of cold showers”.
Rumor has it that they plan to fleece the saps once again with yet another version!
A little too Alex Jones but essentially a very good article pointing out the extremely bad position the military-industrial-pharmaceutical-‘terrorize for resources and land’ complex have put us and the world in,but we lost you at “ae911truth”.I don’t even think Richard Gage believes that nonsense any more but he’d be out of a job if he bailed out now.
We need more than speculation and one quote from a Russian politician before we buy the number of small nukes out there.You do know they become obsolete after a while as they age,right?
It’s fun clobbering and educating the Controlled Demolition Cult!
I could understand if this were true.
But you are wrong even with this assumption, demoralized idiot.
