Inspector Generals, Defense Intelligence Agency, NTSB, FAA, my elected officials and others:

Contradictory information contained in the 911 Commission Report (link), the Arlington County After-Action Report (link) and National News data reveal that the FBI and Arlington County Fire Department deliberately managed the Pentagon fire over a three-day period for purposes that include the murder of innocent bookkeepers, accountants and budget analysts working to track down the missing 2.3 Trillion dollars. I call for the immediate arrest of FBI Special Agent Christopher Combs and Arlington County Fire Chief Plaugher-appointed ACFD Incident Commander Chief James Schwartz who together orchestrated multiple false alarms, to then order multiple Pentagon evacuations, for the manipulation of the Pentagon fire and firemen for sixty hours towards a predetermined deadly outcome. All 911CR and ACAAR page number references are PDF/585 and 215 respectively. The ACAAR page 17 says:

The partnership between the FBI and the ACFD was formed in advance through the initiative of Special Agent Chris Combs; it is a model that every metropolitan area should emulate. Those partnerships forged prior to the heat of battle proved invaluable. Ironically, Special Agent Combs, a former New York firefighter, lost two cousins during the response to the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center.

FBI Special Agent Combs is a former New York firefighter with intimate knowledge of firefighter operations that will also prove invaluable to Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld orchestrating this deliberate Pentagon attack. ACAAR page 28 says,

Special Agent Combs arrived moments after Chief Schwartz. The partnership between Chief Schwartz and Special Agent Combs, who served as FBI agency representative to the Incident Commander, proved invaluable in the days ahead.

The ACAAR proclaims that the partnership between Chief Schwartz and FBI Special Agent Combs prove invaluable in the ‘days head,’ but the 220-feet area between the Wedge One E-ring and C-ring walls were newly-renovated with an automated sprinkler system requiring very little firefighting at all. Fire damage was limited to the first-floor only, because of compartmentalization protection provided by the solid second-story concrete slab above and the solid first-story concrete slab below.

Note the recently reinforced cross wall between the Wedge One section on your left and the Wedge Two section on your right. Everything left of that cross wall was protected by the newly-installed fire sprinkler system. The only unprotected area of the Pentagon affected by this fire is in the Defense Intelligence Agency offices located on the Wedge Two side, just above where you see “Hole in wall.” We have multiple fire trucks with multiple fire crews from all over the area, but we are supposed to believe that this Wedge Two ‘first-floor only’ fire could not be contained. And yet, the contributions made by FBI Special Agent Combs will prove valuable ‘in the days ahead.’ ACAAR page 42 says,

From the moment Special Agent Combs reported to Chief Schwartz as the FBI representative and initial FBI On-Scene Commander, the collaboration and cooperation between the FBI and ACFD was under way.

The Wedge Two C-ring fire affected an area of 50 to 100 feet of the first floor, but ‘collaboration and cooperation between the FBI and ACFD was under way.’ ACAAR page 44 says,

Special Agent Combs established the FBI initial command presence with the ACFD Incident Command. The collaboration and cooperation between the FBI and ACFD was remarkable. The FBI Evidence Recovery Team began arriving before 10:00 a.m. and set up in a grassy area a short distance from the heliport. Because of the extremely congested traffic conditions, it took several hours for the entire FBI contingent to negotiate the route from the District of Columbia to the Pentagon.

Collaboration between the FBI and ACFD is not only underway almost instantly in this firefighting operation, but is characterized in the ACAAR as ‘remarkable.’ The FBI Evidence Recovery Team is arriving before 10 AM amid ‘extremely congested traffic conditions,’ but the page 200 timeline says,

9:49 a.m. FBI Special Agent Chris Combs arrives and is FBI representative to Incident Command

9:50 a.m. Chief Schwartz establishes Fire Suppression Branch, River Division, EMS Division, and A-E Division

FBI Special Agent Combs and Chief Schwartz manage to be in position at the Pentagon within 12 minutes of the reported 9:38 AM attack; arriving just one minute apart. ACAAR page 45 says,

ASAC Blecksmith also noted Special Agent Combs was extremely knowledgeable about the fire emergency and had an outstanding relationship with Chief Schwartz and other key leaders of the response force. ASAC Blecksmith kept Special Agent Combs with him as an advisor and established the FBI command post at the Virginia State Police Barracks, adjacent to the Navy Annex and overlooking the Pentagon.

Now we can understand why the Virginia State Police has no inclination whatsoever to look into the Pentagon Case, because Special Agent Combs is the FBI advisor running in and out of the Virginia State Police Barracks throughout this operation. Again, the ACAAR showers FBI Special Agent Combs with accolades saying he is “extremely knowledgeable about the fire emergency and had an outstanding relationship with Chief Schwartz and other key leaders of the response team.” FBI Special Agent Combs will use this relationship and begin a process of conveying false information to deliberately move firefighters in and out of position. The very bottom of ACAAR page 45 says,

When advised by Special Agent Combs that a second “hijacked aircraft” was headed toward the Pentagon, Chief Schwartz ordered evacuation and moved the ICP to a position under a highway overpass.

This second ‘hijacked aircraft’ will turn out to be United Airlines Flight 93. FBI Special Agent Combs is relaying hijack information to Chief Schwartz who continually jumps each time his pal offers a new excuse to stop fighting this fire. The ACAAR will describe four evacuations that begin at 9:55 AM, ordered by Chief Gibbs (Page 87); or just five minutes after Chief Schwartz reaches the scene. The first of three full evacuations is ordered by Chief Schwartz at 10:15 AM. ACAAR page 52 says,

The next three evacuations were full site-clearing evacuations caused by reports of additional threats of hijacked aircraft heading toward the Pentagon.

The first of these occurred at about 10:15 a.m. on September 11, when Special Agent Combs told Chief Schwartz another hijacked airliner was flying on a trajectory toward Washington, DC, and was 20 minutes away. Special Agent Combs got this information from the command center at the FBI WFO, which was in direct contact with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Using a radio belonging to an airport firefighter, he confirmed the information directly with the control tower at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport.

FBI Special Agent Combs notifies Chief Schwartz that UA93 is approaching the Pentagon using information provided by the FAA. This information clearly contradicts testimony presented in the 911 Commission Report. Interagency collaboration protocols were already in place between the FAA and NORAD for this kind of hijacking situation and the chain of communications is described in the 911CR on page 34:

Interagency Collaboration: The FAA and NORAD had developed protocols for working together in event of a hijacking. As they existed on 9/11, the protocols for the FAA to obtain military assistance from NORAD required multiple levels of notification and approval at the highest levels of government.

FAA guidance to controllers on hijack procedures assumed that the aircraft pilot would notify the controller via radio or by ‘squawking’ a transponder code of ‘7500’-the universal code for a hijacking in progress. Controllers would notify supervisors, who in turn would inform management all the way up to FAA headquarters in Washington. Headquarters had a hijack coordinator, who was the director of the FAA Office of Civil Aviation Security or his or her designate.

Preexisting FAA/NORAD protocols in place on 9/11 say that air traffic controllers are notifying supervisors and management all the way up to FAA Headquarters in Washington. Air traffic control was in contact with C-130 pilot Steven O’Brien concerning the mentioned UA93 crash. 911CR Page 47 says.

United 93 crashed in Pennsylvania at 10:03:11, 125 miles from Washington, D.C. The precise crash time has been the subject of some dispute. The 10:03:11 impact time is supported by previous National Transportation Safety Board analysis and by evidence from the Commission staff’s analysis of radar, the flight data recorder, the cockpit voice recorder, infrared satellite data, andair traffic control transmissions … The aircraft that spotted the ‘black smoke’ was the same unarmed Air National Guard cargo plane that had seen American 77 crash into the Pentagon 27 minutes earlier. It has resumed flight to Minnesota and saw the smoke from the crash of United 93, less than two minutes after the plane went down.

Air traffic controllers are in communication with Steven O’Brien who sees UA93 black smoke at 10:05 AM, or ten minutes before FBI Special Agent Combs will use the UA93 threat to incite Chief Schwartz into ordering a full evacuation at 10:15 AM. Testimony in the 911CR also establishes the fact that multiple federal agencies are teleconferencing by 9:25 that morning. 911CR page 53 says,

At the White House, the video teleconference was conducted from the Situation Room by Richard Clark, a special assistant to the president long involved in counterterrorism. Logs indicate it began at 9:25 and included the CIA; the FBI; the departments of State, Justice, and Defense; the FAA; and the White House shelter. The FAA and CIA joined at 9:40.

Air traffic controllers have a direct pipeline into the FAA Office of Civil Aviation Security, which means the FAA is advising the FBI and FBI Special Agent Combs was well aware of the fact that UA93 is crashed in the Shanksville field at 10:05 AM; using reports by C-130 pilot Steven O’Brien. There is no reason for FBI Special Agent Combs to use any fireman radio to confirm anything with the FAA, because the FAA is teleconferencing with the FBI directly to receive live air traffic control updates on a minute-by-minute basis. ACAAR page 52 continues,

Chief Schwartz issued a warning with each flight status update until the last warning when the airliner went below radar coverage in Pennsylvania, an estimated 4 minutes flying time from the Pentagon. Five minutes later, Special Agent Combs told him the airplane had crashed in Pennsylvania and the all clear was sounded. At 10:37 a.m., United Airlines Flight #93 crashed into a field near Shanksville, PA. The heroic actions of doomed passengers had thwarted the terrorist plan.

The authorities responsible for ACAAR sworn testimony are living inside a Combs/Schwartz-created bubble and the ACAAR is deliberately stating an incorrect UA93 crash time by more than a half hour. The reason that we see this 10:37 AM UA93 crash time is because FBI Special Agent Combs and Chief Schwartz are desperately trying to cover up the truth about exactly when the E-ring roof collapsed. Time-stamped Live News Video shows that the E-ring parapet wall began to collapse at exactly 10:15:16 AM. However, the corrupt ACAAR will report that the E-ring roof collapsed at 9:57 AM (Page 200).

9:57 a.m. Structural collapse in impact area

The fact is that Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld intended for the E-ring roof to collapse at 9:31:39 AM with the initial Hughes-Raytheon Missile Strike; when the painted-up A-3 Skywarrior was supposed to strike the Column Line (CL) 11-15 E-ring wall location. FBI Special Agent Combs is running diversion for Donald Rumsfeld and doing everything to join the fake AA77 crash time (CNN Terror Chronology = 9:43 AM) with the fake E-ring roof collapse time of 9:57 AM; in order to create the illusion of a near-simultaneous AA77 crash/E-ring roof collapse event. ACAAR page 53 says,

One of Special Agent Combs’ jobs with the FBI NCRS was to establish and maintain close working relationships with the regional fire and rescue departments. His relationship with Chief Schwartz was well-established before September 11. The list of beneficial personal relationships extended throughout the ranks. Firefighters from neighboring jurisdictions had often worked and trained together, which built valuable trust and confidence.

This preexisting and carefully-nurtured personal relationship between FBI Special Agent Combs and Chief Schwartz is the only reason that the FBI was able to maneuver firefighters in and out of position, while pretending to fight this fire, well into Thursday evening. Fox News reported,

“Late Thursday, rescuers worked to shore up unsteady parts of the building but flames erupted. The flare-up sent black smoke billowing hundreds of feet into the air over Washington.” (“Flight Data, Cockpit Voice Recorders Found in Pentagon Wreckage,” FoxNews, September 14, 2001, http://www.public-action.com/911/rescue/obq-foxnews-09-14-2001 )

This first-floor Wedge Two C-ring fire, limited to a 50 by 100-foot first-floor area, should have been contained within minutes of the time that the combined area firefighters reached the scene. And yet, literally hundreds of firemen will be manipulated in and out of position to allow the fire to burn out of control for sixty hours into Thursday. ACAAR page 69 says,

This was a fire and rescue incident within the broader context of a terrorist attack. Coordination and collaboration with the FBI was critical to operational success. This relationship began well before September 11, 2001. When Special Agent Combs was assigned to the FBI WFO NCRS in 1998, his duties included Fire Service Liaison. As a former New York firefighter, Special Agent Combs put in place a proactive liaison program, regularly visiting area fire department leaders and teaching courses at area fire academies on terrorism, weapons of mass destruction (WMD), and roles and responsibilities of the FBI. All of this paid handsome dividends on September 11 and the days that followed.

The missing terminology from all of these ‘Combs’ and ‘fire’ accounts are references to any crashed 100-ton Jetliner or Jetliner debris. Deliberately allowing this single-story C-ring fire to escalate out of control for three days is characterized by the ACAAR authorities as and ‘operational success.’ The ACAAR will describe the 10:15 AM evacuation event again on page 163, saying,

At about 10:15 a.m. on September 11, the WFO Command Center was notified by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) that another airliner, United Airlines Flight #93, was hijacked after taking off from Newark, NJ, and was flying on a course from western Pennsylvania toward the Washington Metropolitan Area. The FAA estimated it would reach Washington, DC, in 20 minutes. The Command Center relayed the information to Special Agent Combs at the ACFD ICP who alerted Chief Schwartz.

There is no way that the FAA notified any WFO Command Center that UA93 was hijacked at 10:15 AM, because C-130 pilot Steven O’Brien made the ‘black smoke’ declaration just two minutes after the 10:03:11 crash that was established by air traffic control operator communications. However, all of this ‘hijacked airliner warning’ business is a smokescreen, because the Pentagon has five sophisticated anti-missile batteries and a MK 15 Phalanx Close-in Weapons System that automatically engage to protect the Pentagon against any missile or plane attack. The only reason those automated defense systems were offline on 911 is because Dick Cheney gave the infamous “Stand Down Order.” Special Agent Combs was passing on incorrect UA93 information to Chief Schwartz with the knowledge that Cheney’s Stand Down Order remained in place, and as if the most highly-secured military installation on earth was vulnerable to an air attack; even though the DoD had access to hundreds of fighter jets to meet any air assault scenario. This UA93 charade continues on ACAAR page 163,

Special Agent Combs located a Washington Metropolitan Airports Authority (WMAA) firefighter equipped with a radio and confirmed the information about Flight #93. Chief Schwartz ordered a complete area evacuation, directing the response force to relative safety beneath nearby highway overpasses. Special Agent Combs stayed at Chief Schwartz’ side, giving him updates as the FAA tracked the course of Flight #93. The last update came when the airliner was 4 minutes away from the Pentagon. Five minutes later, Special Agent Combs reported to Chief Schwartz that Flight #93 had crashed into Camp David in Maryland. In fact, it crashed in a field near Shanksville, PA. Chief Schwartz sounded the all clear.

FBI Special Agent Combs is manipulating firemen to leave the Pentagon fire at 10:15 AM and the same exact time that the E-ring roof actually collapses. The clearly-stated reason for the evacuation is because UA93 is four minutes away from the Pentagon, when that jetliner reportedly crashed some eleven minutes earlier. Page 200 of the ACAAR timeline says,

10:37 a.m. United Airlines Flight #93 crashes 80 miles south of Pittsburgh, PA

ACAAR officials cannot backtrack and provide the accurate 10:03:11 UA93 crash time, because that completely eradicates the reason for Chief Schwartz to order a full evacuation at 10:15 AM. The ACAAR wants to place their E-ring roof collapse (9:57 AM) some forty minutes ‘before’ the UA93 crash, when in reality that 10:15:16 AM E-ring roof collapse event took place (watch the Live News footage for yourself = CBS Sept. 11, 2001 9:54 am – 10:36 am : CBS 9, Washington, D.C. : Free Download & Streaming : Internet Archive) 12 minutes and 5 seconds after UA93 crashed in the Shanksville field. There is no reason for these ACAAR authorities to misrepresent the UA93 crash time by such a large margin, other than to deliberately change the chronological events contained in their misleading ACAAR timeline. Watching the CBS Live 9 News video will reveal firemen engaging the fire at 10:15:16 AM and beyond, which clearly demonstrates that nobody is giving any command to evacuate and firemen are fighting this fire when the E-ring roof finally falls.

The evidence will show that the Pentagon was first attacked at exactly 9:31:39 AM by a Hughes-Raytheon Hypersonic Missile carrying three submunition bomblets (B1, B2 and B3 in diagram). The evidence will show that the refitted Global Guardian Wargame A-3 Skywarrior Jet flew over the E-ring roof during the same missile strike. The A-3 Jet made a wide northerly turn to attack the Pentagon from the west at exactly 9:36:27 AM, which is the unidentified jet that C-130 pilot Steven O’Brien saw on route to the Pentagon. The evidence will show that Donald Rumsfeld and the DoD began controlled demolition of the E-Ring roof at 9:42 AM, which began a series of massive explosions. That is the reason that FBI Special Agent Combs gave false reports to Chief Schwartz to remove all eyewitnesses to these explosions from the crime scene.

Donald Rumsfeld was not finished murdering civilian bookkeepers, accountants and budget analysts tracking down the missing 2.3 Trillion dollars, which created the need for FBI Special Agent Combs to manipulate the Pentagon fire and firemen over the course of the three-day firefighting charade. Another chilling fact is that Chief Schwartz ordered a wrecking ball crew to demolish evidence. ACAAR page 188 says,

At 3:15 a.m. on September 12, the Incident Commander telephoned Assistant County Manager Mausert-Mooney who was filling in for County Manager Carlee at the EOC. Chief Schwartz reported that the Urban Search & Rescue (US&R) teams wanted authorization to use a wrecking ball commencing at daybreak to demolish the structurally damaged sections of the Pentagon. This would speed search and rescue efforts, safeguard the safety of the responders, and would not result in additional deaths of victims since the initial impact, fire, smoke, and earlier collapse had killed all occupants not already rescued. Of course, no one could guarantee there were no trapped victims who could be killed as a result of the demolition.

Chief Schwartz is only about 18 hours into the 60-hour firefight, but he wants to bring in a demolition crew using cranes and wrecking balls to bring down Pentagon floors that were sprinkler protected long before these attacks. The only way fire could pass through these compartmentalized concrete barriers is by deliberate human intervention. Period. The idea that fire can pass through solid concrete slabs to become ‘out of control,’ in the presence of literally hundreds of firemen, is completely ridiculous and not plausible at all.

This picture was taken on 9/11, before the E-ring roof collapsed at 10:15 AM, which had to be before 9:55 AM when Chief Gibbs gives the first evacuation order.

http://www.osha.gov/as/opa/911/images/pentagon.jpg

This is a picture showing the collapsed roof with very little sign of any fire in the upper floors at all. The fact that Chief Schwartz requests a demolition crew and wrecking ball at 3 AM on Wednesday 9/12 is alarming, when the fire will rage on into Thursday evening! The ACAAR gives us a 24-hour timeline of events for a fire that lasts 60 hours. The Office of Inspector General must request a full timeline of events taking place over the entire 60-hour period’ that includes testimony directly from the firefighter log books. The two key fire trucks on the scene and fighting the fire on 9/11 are Fort Meyer Rescue Engine 161 and Reagan National’s Aircraft Rescue Fire Fighting (ARFF) Foam Unit 331 (pictured here) that are positioned directly in front of the E-ring hole throughout the day on 9/11. Neither of these trucks or crews are mentioned once in the ACAAR, because their logs include reports of multiple ‘explosions’ between 9:42 and 10:15 on 9/11; a fact that the FBI and Arlington County Fire Department are working to hide.

The Office of Inspector General must investigate the 9:31:39 AM initial Pentagon explosion and the obvious contradictions in the Official Government Documentation stating very clearly that the Pentagon fire and firemen were deliberately managed and manipulated for purposes including the murder of innocent civilians tracking down the missing 2.3 Trillion dollars and the faking of an American Airlines crash at the Pentagon to cover up a deliberate 9:31:39 AM missile strike.

At your service,

Editor’s note:  Rumsfeld’s 9-10-01 announcement of missing $2.3 trillion in Pentagon allocations combines with an additional missing $1.1 trillion reported by Rumsfeld during a Congressional hearing to total a staggering $3.4 trillion.  The “coincidence” that the Pentagon was “hit” in the Department of Naval Intelligence accounting division–the department tasked with determining how such a sum was ‘missing’ combines with the ‘coincidence’ that former CEO (some report VP) of Systems Planning Corporation and rabbi Dov Zakheim had connections with Boeing for installation of remote flight control systems (drone technology) and flight termination systems.  Dov Zakheim holds dual US-Israeli citizenship and was a PNAC member.  It is reported that backup computers for Pentagon accounting were housed in the World Trade Center.  These ‘coincidences’ provide explanations for motive, means, and opportunity to commit an intricately planned scheme to justify an agenda via the interminable hoax referred to the “war on terror” which seems to be a war of terror used to establish a rapidly growing police state in the U.S., invasions–occupations–covert/overt regime change, unlimited funding for military industries and support of what some refer to as the “greater Israel project”.  This post by “Terral” must be taken as a lead to purue in the investigation.  The mentioned individuals by “Terral” must be subpoenaed and interrogated under oath.

Such depth of investigation has yet to occur and of late, we have even more examples of FBI complicity in the cover-up of turning events such as Boston bombing, Sandy Hook drill, Orlando shooting, and the Hillary emails.

An awfully large number of top financial CEO’s were not in their World Trade Center offices 9/11 morning.

Would you be surprised to learn that some of the very same same people who were at the center of the massive frauds that have tanked the US economy…

Would also be key persons of interest in a true 9/11 investigation?

And that when studied comprehensively the two operations give the appearance of being interlinked?

Mind boggling research put together beautifully and all backed up by public access documentation.

Black 9 11 Money, Motive,

Technology, and Plausible Deniability

NEW YORK IS “GROUND ZERO” – Major grassroots movement in 48 States, Constituting Common Law Grand Juries. In a
stunning six to three, 1992 Decision that went unnoticed, until now, Justice Antonin Scalia writing for the majority said:
In the Supreme Court case of United States v. Williams, 112 S.Ct. 1735, 504 U.S. 36, 118 L.Ed.2d 352 (1992), Justice
Antonin Scalia, writing for the majority, confirmed that the American grand jury is neither part of the judicial, executive
nor legislative branches of government, but instead belongs to the people. It is in effect a fourth branch of government
“governed” and administered to directly by and on behalf of the American people, and its authority emanates from the
Bill of Rights, the acts of the Grand Jury is the consent of the people.
“The grand jury is mentioned in the Bill of Rights, but not in the body of the Constitution. It has not been textually
assigned, therefore, to any of the branches described in the first three Articles. It ” ‘is a constitutional fixture in its own
right. In fact the whole theory of its function is that it belongs to no branch of the institutional government, serving as a
kind of buffer or referee between the Government and the people”. — Justice Antonin Scalia
“Thus, citizens have the unbridled right to empanel their own grand juries and present “True Bills” of indictment to a
court, which is then required to commence a criminal proceeding. Our Founding Fathers presciently thereby created a
“buffer” the people may rely upon for justice, when public officials, including judges, criminally violate the law.” —
Justice Antonin Scalia
“The grand jury is an institution separate from the courts, over whose functioning the courts do not preside, we think it
clear that, as a general matter at least, no such “supervisory” judicial authority exists. The “common law” of the Fifth
Amendment demands a traditional functioning grand jury.” — Justice Antonin Scalia
“Although the grand jury normally operates, of course, in the courthouse and under judicial auspices, its institutional
relationship with the judicial branch has traditionally been, so to speak, at arm’s length. Judges’ direct involvement in
the functioning of the grand jury has generally been confined to the constitutive one of calling the grand jurors together
and administering their oaths of office. The grand jury’s functional independence from the judicial branch is evident
both in the scope of its power to investigate criminal wrongdoing, and in the manner in which that power is exercised.”
— Justice Antonin Scalia
“The grand jury ‘can investigate merely on suspicion that the law is being violated, or even because it wants assurance
that it is not.’ It need not identify the offender it suspects, or even “the precise nature of the offense” it is investigating.
The grand jury requires no authorization from its constituting court to initiate an investigation, nor does the prosecutor
require leave of court to seek a grand jury indictment. And in its day-to-day functioning, the grand jury generally
operates without the interference of a presiding judge. It swears in its own witnesses and deliberates in total secrecy.” –
– Justice Antonin Scalia
“Recognizing this tradition of independence, we have said the 5th Amendment’s constitutional guarantee presupposes
an investigative body ‘acting independently of either prosecuting attorney or judge” — Justice Antonin Scalia
“Given the grand jury’s operational separateness from its constituting court, it should come as no surprise that we have
been reluctant to invoke the judicial supervisory power as a basis for prescribing modes of grand jury procedure. Over
the years, we have received many requests to exercise supervision over the grand jury’s evidence-taking process, but we
have refused them all. “it would run counter to the whole history of the grand jury institution” to permit an indictment
to be challenged “on the ground that there was incompetent or inadequate evidence before the grand jury.” — Justice
Antonin Scalia

9/11 and Cognitive Dissonance

By  Gary G. Kohls, MD

There is an epidemic of a  psychological phenomenon called cognitive  dissonance in the world today. Everybody is  susceptible to the reality of cognitive dissonance  in one degree or another, but, to many observers,  it seems to be especially prevalent in average  Americans today.    Cognitive dissonance refers to  the psychological or emotional discomfort felt  when one is confronted with new information or a  new reality that contradicts one’s deeply held  beliefs or belief systems. It seems especially  common among people who have been victimized by TV  commercials and other methods of brain-washing and  propaganda. It is also true of cult membership  that is led by a charismatic, deceptive leader or  membership in some other authoritarian system,  including punitive parenting and religious or  political indoctrination.    When there is a confrontation  of conflicting and mutually exclusive beliefs,  intelligent, open-minded and thoughtful people are  usually willing to change their minds by  re-evaluating their prior stances, looking  carefully and honestly at the new evidence,  reassessing the credibility of both positions and  then making a decision to adopt or reject the new  information, depending on the evidence before  them.    Close-minded, distracted,  un-informed, ignorant, too-busy, addicted or  intensely conservative people may not, for a  variety of reasons, have the time, inclination,  intelligence or political will to look at new  evidence that might run contrary to their  ingrained beliefs. Therefore they may  unconsciously or reflexively reject the new  information, even if the evidence is  overwhelmingly and provably true.    Two good examples of avoidance  of unwelcome truths (and the fear of cognitive  dissonance) about atrocities committed during US  wars of aggression are the corporate media’s total  blackballing of those taboo subjects: veterans of  the Vietnam War and the Afghanistan/Iraq wars  coming home to testify about the war crimes they  committed overseas. (See http://www.wintersoldier.com/<http://www.wintersoldier.com/> ;  http://links.org.au/node/3343<http://links.org.au/node/3343> ;  and  http://www.ivaw.org/wintersoldier<http://www.ivaw.org/wintersoldier> )    Of course the threat of  being ostracized or accused of being  insufficiently patriotic, traitorous or risking  one’s job for telling the truth are also huge  factors in covering up the Crime of the Century.  The hidden message is: what is happening to  Julian Assange, Bradley Manning and Edward  Snowden and what happened to JFK, RFK, MLK and  Paul Wellstone might happen to you! As Daniel  Ellsberg, the famous whistle-blowing Pentagon  Papers “conspiracy theorist” that leaked the  painful truths about the atrocity-producing  Vietnam War, said: “I have had the owners of  highly-regarded media companies confide in me  privately that they don’t believe the  government’s version of 9/11 but are scared of  discussing it publicly because they don’t want  to be tarred-and-feathered for discussing  “conspiracy theories”. (See http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=25286 <http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&amp;aid=25286> )    People who freeze, flee, faint  or fight when they are about to receive  information that contradicts what they thought  they knew are often influenced by spokespersons  for authoritarian entities that have hidden  agendas involving survival, greed and power.  Usually such thought-leaders are financed by  wealthy elites of the ruling class that have easy  access to powerful propaganda machinery. One only  has to look at America’s various media empires –  owned and operated by excessively wealthy,  politically conservative corporations – whose real  interests are well hidden.    Holding conflicting ideas  simultaneously is difficult or impossible for most  people (except for the bribed, the ignorant, the  distracted, the semiconscious, the drugged or  those with an “I don’t give a damn” attitude). So  the natural instinct for most humans is to make a  judgment in favor of the old, deeply embedded  idea. The tendency to be dismissive of the new  information, even to the point of angrily labeling  the new idea a “conspiracy theory” and then  ridiculing the “conspiracy theorists” who have  challenged them with unwelcome facts.    Not to do so may result in  having to admit ones errors, which, to many people  (especially Western men), can be psychologically  intolerable. Another good example of cognitive  dissonance and denial are certain religious  fundamentalists who, while professing that the  bible is inerrant, have to be in denial of the  fact that there are numerous internal  contradictions and inconsistencies between the Old  Testament’s ethical teachings that often justifies  homicidal violence and the nonviolent ethics of  Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount that forbids  homicidal violence.

<<<Cognitive  dissonance and 9/11 truth>>>

The best recent example of society-wide cognitive  dissonance that has placed America on the slippery  slope of global conflagration, economic collapse,  “Big Brother” surveillance states, endless foreign  wars and domestic martial law is what has been  happening ever since millions of observant,  open-minded patriots saw, and then courageously  said something about, what really happened on  9/11/01.    What they saw  contradicted  what the 24/7 corporate  media  reportage that was coming out of the  Cheney/Bush/Rumsfeld/Rove White House and the  NeoCons of the Project for the new American  Century (google PNAC and 911). The disinformation  was obediently echoed – and enforced – by the NSA,  the FBI, the CIA, the Pentagon and by members of  both political parties who couldn’t admit that  they were destined to be  part of a  major conspiracy that would lead to the  evisceration of the Constitution and the deaths of  and disruptions to millions of innocent, unarmed  men, women and children in the Middle East.    <<<Believe  your eyes and not the lies>>>    People who watched the events  of 9/11/01 on live television or were actually  present in Manhattan saw fireballs erupt near the  top of both 110 story twin towers and then burn  out rapidly. Most eyewitnesses didn’t see the  first plane hit a tower until a day or two later  when accidental coverage by some French  videographers was shown on US television.  President Bush had lied when he said that he had  seen the first plane hitting the tower because  there was no live TV coverage of that incident.    Many credible eyewitnesses  (especially the scores of NYFD firefighters) saw  and heard multiple explosions in multiple sites in  both towers just before they exploded and were  reduced to pyroclastic clouds of fine dust. There  is testimonial and video evidence of widespread  destruction in the bottom floors of the Twin  Towers before the buildings were imploded. See: http://911blogger.com/news/2010-10-06/new-video-911-firefighters-reveal-huge-explosions-towers-collapsed <http://911blogger.com/news/2010-10-06/new-video-911-firefighters-reveal-huge-explosions-towers-collapsed>    Sturdy, over-engineered steel  girders up to 4 inches thick were nicely sectioned  by cutter charges into easily transportable  lengths before they hit the ground. Some of those  multi-ton steel beam sections had been thrown, at  high speed, horizontally, embedding themselves  into adjacent buildings up to 600 feet away. Mayor  Rudy Giuliani illegally tampered with the crime  scene when he ordered the sectioned beams to be  hastily shipped overseas as scrap metal to be  melted down before they could be examined in the  US.     According to the testimony of  hundreds of interviewees, some of the explosions  originated in the basements of the towers in the  minutes before the collapses and after the  fireballs had burned out at the top of the towers.  One eyewitness who worked in World Trade Center #  7 (later to be demolished by obvious controlled  demolition at 5:20 pm – on the direct order of WTC  complex owner Larry Silverstein) testified that  there were explosions in # 7 before any planes hit  the other two towers. That man has since died  under suspicious circumstances after giving his  dramatic and dissonance-inducing testimony on live  TV.    Many physicists, engineers,  chemists, architects, jet pilots, demolition  experts, scientists, intelligence agents and  others (those not co-opted or bribed by special  interests) have been exhaustively evaluating the  video footage of the collapses of the three  towers. They have concluded that the official  conspiracy theories were patently false.    Any honest viewer of even a few  of the hundreds of YouTube videos on the subject  of 9/11 will agree with those expert observers.  The scientists among them have proven, beyond a  shadow of a doubt, that all three towers came down  at accelerating free-fall speed, meaning that  there was nothing structurally intact below the  top of the collapsing buildings. Pulverized  concrete and suddenly transected steel columns  offered no resistance to the falling buildings, a  reality that totally destroys the absurd pancake  theory that the White House and uninformed others  want gullible people to believe.    The twin towers had suddenly  disintegrated an hour or so after the fires had  extinguished themselves and only black,  oxygen-starved smoke from low temperature office  fires was coming from the buildings. No plane hit  #7 and only a few insignificant, easily  controllable office fires (which did not occur  because of falling debris, since no windows had  been broken on the involved floors) were present  in that over-engineered (for sturdiness and  safety) high security building. Curiously, WTC 7  contained many offices of powerful entities like  the CIA, Mayor Giuliani’s emergency command center  and the SEC’s (Security and Exchange Commission)  files on Enron and other corrupt corporations that  were heading to litigation.    Within hours of the twin towers  being explosively pulverized into fine dust, the  corporate media was already reporting that  culprits had suddenly been identified, accused,  convicted and condemned, all without a jury trial.  Suddenly there were pictures on every news report  of 19 young Saudi Arabian men and the  terminally-ill, recent American ally Osama bin  Laden (who had already been nicely demonized in  the American media). The major media conveniently  failed to report later that at least six of these  alleged suicide bombers had been found, alive and  well, in the Middle East. Go figure.
<<<The “lone  assassin” and false flag operations fool most  of the people most of the time>>>
  It is important to de-mystify  the favored “blame it on a deranged lone shooter  instead of guilty entities that profit from the  killing” explanation (and therefore  non-conspiratorial] for assassinations that  governments love to trot out when their official  pat answers about how the latest progressive  leader or journalist or whistleblower had been  “offed”. (Recall the “lone assassins” Lee Harvey  Oswald, James Earl Ray and Sirhan Sirhan who had  been fingered as ending the lives and missions of  antifascist peace and justice advocates like JFK,  MLK and RFK.) There is abundant evidence, always  silenced by a total media blackout, that  legitimately questions the validity of the  official theories of, for example, who killed JFK,  MLK and RFK, or Paul Wellstone, for that matter.  (See Dr. James Fetzer’swww.assassinationscience.com <http://www.assassinationscience.com>  andhttp://911caper.com/2011/03/12/paul-wellstone-they-killed-him-a-15-part-documentary/<http://911caper.com/2011/03/12/paul-wellstone-they-killed-him-a-15-part-documentary/>  for much more on these and other critically  important issues that can cause cognitive  dissonance.)    Devious opinion leaders and  disinformation agents like to proclaim simplistic,  seemingly plausible explanations for complex  events, especially when corporate or state  interests are at stake. These entities hire  cunning communications experts that are geniuses  at “explaining/propagandizing” everything with  pithy slogans and 20-second sound bites that are  articulated by “embedded” journalists and their  “news reports” (that are actually propaganda  pieces) that most of us patriotic (and very  short-attention-span) Americans want to  believe. Even incredibly complex situations like  American invasions of or attacks against sovereign  nations are often only given simplistic  explanations whose opposing points of view are  rarely given adequate media exposure.    False flag operations are  clever, pre-planned propaganda events that  governments orchestrate in order for it to justify  going to war. In addition to the obvious false  flag operation of 9/11, the Berlin Reichstag Fire,  Operation Northwoods and the Gulf of Tonkin  episodes (google them) come readily to mind. False  flag ops, breathlessly proclaimed and endlessly  referred to (and therefore ultimately accepted as  truth by most folks), fool many supposedly smart  Senators and Representatives, as well as  presidents. Of course, one must also wonder how  many or our so-called leaders in the fall of 2001  were in on the deception or have since been part  of the cover-up (and therefore an accomplice of  the crime).    Many citizens simply want to be  led by a charismatic leader (“Fuhrer”, “El Duce”  for example) or an attractive Prime Minister or  President, but what happens if these citizens are  incapable of using what may be seriously atrophied  critical thinking skills? Do they wind up  believing what they have been told over and over  again by the ruling elites who have control of the  White House, the Congress, the Supreme Court and  fraudulent investigative committees like the 9/11  Truth [sic] Commission? Indeed that is the case.  And what guarantees the success of the elite  ruling class’s agenda is their control over what  gets published or discussed in the media.     Lone assassin theories and  false flag operations are absurdly easy to  propagate by endlessly repeating the sound bites  and perpetually re-stating lies as truth. 19  brown-skinned, bearded Arabs and a dying, despised  Osama bin Laden were easy patsies, just like the  patsies Oswald, Ray, Sirhan and the pilots of  Wellstone’s fatal plane. (See the documentary  “Wellstone: They Killed Him” at http://www.snowshoefilms.com/wellstone.html <http://www.snowshoefilms.com/wellstone.html>  and the black-balled [in the US] book exonerating  James Earl Ray, titled “An Act of State: The  Execution of Martin Luther King”. Also learn about  the 1999 jury trial convicting Lloyd Jowers and  “other unnamed co-conspirators” for MLK’s murder  and listen to King family attorney William Pepper  on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWS1KPCmOrI<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWS1KPCmOrI>  and athttp://www.williampepper.com/ <http://www.williampepper.com/> ).     It is far too easy for the  propagandists to convince us busy, distracted,  over-entertained Americans to believe their lies,  whether repeated by talking heads on Fox News,  CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, MSNBC, PBS, NPR, or  regurgitated by normal people in the local bars,  street corners or pulpits. And it’s hard to speak  up when one is likely to be shouted down by a  crowd of dis-informed folks whose opinions have  been shaped by cunning propagandists who have had  control of the megaphone.    <<<Lessons  from Joseph Goebbels, Minister of Propaganda  and Public Enlightenment>>>
The master propagandist, now unconsciously  emulated by the likes of Rush Limbaugh, Glenn  Beck, Shawn Hannity and Bill O’Reilly was Joseph  Goebbels, Hitler’s Minister of Propaganda and  Public Enlightenment.    Goebbels had authoritarian  control over all of Nazi Germany’s print media,  radio broadcasts and the movie industry. If it was  broadcast on German radio in the 1930s, it was  information that was right-wing, state-sanctioned  and pro-Nazi. Dissension was verboten, and no  alternative news reporting was allowed. Liberal  printing presses were smashed and their editors  and journalists were often thrown in prison or  concentration camps.    As an example of the many  official (and legal) repressive actions, Goebbels  was able to suppress the showing of the classic  antiwar movie “All Quiet on the Western Front” by,  initially, having his obedient brown-shirted,  thuggish, traumatized ex-combat vets (from World  War I) in the right-wing SA set off stink bombs  and released mice in the theaters. Goebbels  subsequently banned the showing of that movie,  which, by the way, is likewise frowned upon as  being too truthful about the savagery of war by  all militarized nations, including our own.  Goebbels’ techniques of brain-washing eventually  were supplemented by harsh legislation that was  enforced by the Gestapo and punished by the  People’s Courts (often resulting in the death  penalty). Listening to radio broadcasts from the  BBC was a capital crime in Nazi Germany.

<<<The three  “wise” monkeys>>>

As children we all saw the  pictures of the “three wise monkeys” that we were  told were supposedly telling us to “See no evil,  hear no evil, speak no evil”. I thought about that  “lesson” a lot as I grew up. There was something  profoundly true about the image of the monkeys  holding their hands over eyes, ears and mouths,  but there was something subtly wrong with the  sentiment that was giving children a moral message  to stay away from evil.    I now think that the three  monkeys were actually conveying to us something  entirely different. They could as easily have been  conveying this much more sobering message, one of  obedience to authority: “Avoid seeing, listening  or speaking painful truths”; be good little  patriots and mindlessly say the pledge of  allegiance to the flag every day.    The Sicilian Mafia, who  demanded unconditional obedience to authority,  probably saw the image and message that way. That  brutal organization actually still uses the symbol  of the monkeys as emblematic of their code of  conduct and “honor”, which is a code of secrecy  similar to the oath of allegiance that many  powerful institutions abide by, including such  groups as the National Security Agency, the  Pentagon, the CIA, the FBI, local law enforcement  agencies, multinational corporations and many  political groups.    The Mafia – as is true of most  of the other groups mentioned above – never admits  their criminality, immorality or unconstitutional  behaviors. The reason that they promote falsehoods  or engage in other illegal activities does not  involve cognitive dissonance. Rather, they remain  silent (pleading the 5th Amendment if  they ever get subpoenaed) because they are  threatened, are afraid for their lives or  livelihood or have been paid off. The rule in many  such authoritarian groups is “if you rat on us –  you die”. Such “traitors” are cold-shouldered,  blackballed, imprisoned or disappeared, which was  or will be the fate of all those whistleblowers  mentioned above, but their motivation is not the  fear of psychological discomfort.    <<<Trying  to save the soul of our errant nation by  speaking truth to power>>>   Most of the whistleblowers that  I know are altruistic patriots who have seen the  dark underbelly of their own nations and choose to  overcome their cognitive dissonance and  courageously speak the painful truth, risking the  chance that they will be unfairly labeled  “conspiracy theorists” by those that don’t know  any better. They are trying to save the souls of  their errant, but beloved nations.    The painful truth of the matter  is this: contrary to the drumbeat we have heard  over and over again about 9/11 for the last 12  years, the Cheney/Bush/Rumsfeld/Rove White House  Conspiracy Theory about 9/11 is provably false and  the proof has been available since 2001. There has  been so much evidence disproving it that it is  almost laughable that anybody who looks at the  evidence and still believes the lies could still  defend their beliefs.  9/11 is still  regarded as a taboo subject in America and one of  the reasons for average citizens remaining  ignorant about it is cognitive dissonance, the  reluctance to admit to having been fooled by the  propaganda machine. The ability to accept the  humiliation of being conned into believing a  falsehood is not a common trait among Americans.    Many American may not care  enough and perhaps are too distracted, too busy or  too addicted (to brain-altering drugs,  entertainment, videogaming, food, sports,  religion, etc) to take the time to do their own  research and to double-check the veracity of what  has been proven over and over again about the WTC  towers: they were demolished by unknown insiders  who pre-planted the explosives and not by  foreigners. That is both important and tragic, for  9/11 is the Crime and Cover-up of the Century. It  is the most serious issue of our day, the cause of  massive death, destruction and wars and one that  is deciding the increasingly dismal future that  may not be able to sustain a healthy living  environment for those who are following us.     To continue to ignore the  truths uncovered by the multitudes of  thoughtful, highly intelligent and courageous  prophetic voices world-wide and to continue to  believe the absurd official theories when there  is overwhelming evidence to the contrary is to  helplessly go along with the evil agenda of  shadowy, exploitive, psychopathic powers that  are not your friends; nor are they the friends  of your children, your nation or the earth. To  continue to be oblivious about the Crime and  Cover-up of the Century will be putting our  children and their planet in peril.    For more information, please  start your research here:  (check out these very  informative websites that reveal the truth about  9/11, including Dr James Fetzer’s Scholars for  9/11 Truth athttp://911scholars.org/ <http://911scholars.org/> ,  Richard Gage’s Architects and Engineers for 9/11  Truth at: http://www.ae911truth.org/ <http://www.ae911truth.org/> or Scholars for 9/11 Truth and Justice at www.http://stj911.org/ <http://stj911.org/> .  Dr. Kohls is a  retired physician who practiced holistic  mental health care for the last decade of  his career.

KSM couldn’t possibly have masterminded 9/11. 2000+ military, intelligence, industry professionals do not believe the official account of 9/11 — read what some of them say at http://www.twf.org/News/Y2011/0911-Muslims.html

I have assembled the evidence against the official account at our website, and mailed it to President Obama and others. You may view the evidence by following the links in this letter to the president http://www.twf.org/News/Y2012/0815-Obama.pdf

I have presented earlier versions of this evidence in a 3-week lecture tour of South Africa where I gave talks daily to audiences as large as 1000, appeared on satellite TV, and national radio SAfm.
