SILENCING THE PEOPLE & 911

by Devvy Kidd | October 2, 2006

"Do not separate text from historical background. If you do, you will have perverted and subverted the Constitution, which can only end in a distorted, bastardized form of illegitimate government." -- James Madison, 4th president, known as "Father" of the U.S. Constitution

This past week we saw the traitorous, yes, traitorous Republicans pass new legislation to protect their backsides and Bush's from being charged with war crimes. To say this latest move by Congress is beyond any horror most of us hardened warriors said wouldn't happen, is the understatement of the century, i.e.:

"The compromise legislation, which is racing toward the White House, authorizes the president to seize American citizens as enemy combatants, even if they have never left the United States. And once thrown into military prison, they cannot expect a trial by their peers or any other of the normal protections of the Bill of Rights." This column in The Washington Post lays it out quite succinctly and any member of Congress who voted for this abomination should be thrown out of Congress, period. Of course, regular readers of my column know that I support throwing out every single incumbent up for reelection except Ron Paul and Tom Tancredo. Unfortunately, with electronic ballot machines running the show, the shadow government will deal the deck they way they want in November. A further and frightening analysis of this unconstitutional, Nazi style legislation is found here. Any American who questions this government - especially those questioning 911 - are now a target of this draconian legislation.

Recently I received an e-mail from a man who wanted me to beat up the Democrats more instead of just proving the Republicans in control of Congress are destroying the Bill of Rights. Those who have been reading my columns for more than a decade know I play no favorites. Last week I received an e-mail from a sincere sounding lady: "I'm trying to figure out how to salvage the upcoming November elections by getting paper ballots into the polling places. Google led me to your site, where I was completely with you until you labeled Democrats as Communists. It doesn't matter how many communists voted for John Kerry, that doesn't make Democrats communists..."

I have written for years that the agenda of the Democrat Party is communism and see no reason why the Democrat Party shouldn't go ahead and merge with the Communist Party USA. Why do you think the Communist Party USA endorsed John Kerry for president? Because they knew if he became president and ruler of the Democrat Party, he would push to continue their agenda. If you belong to a party that has adopted the communist manifesto and support it, then what are you supporting? Communism. You can't label it any other way. If you don't support communism, then walk away from that party. I was a life long Republican until 1996 when I walked from the GOP after years of research and coming to the painful realization that the agenda of the party power players behind the scenes was one world government and a mix of fascism and communism. How could I continue to belong to and support an organization that is so completely anti-American? I could not, so I left the party and have never regretted it despite the amount of flack which flows into my e-mail box daily. Steven LaTulippe recently wrote an excellent column on this very issue; see here.

So, to answer Jennifer's question: if you agree that America is sliding down the razor blade of totalitarian government aided and abetted by the "leadership" of the two main political parties, then how can you remain a member of these parties, giving these political machines your loyalty, time and money? In essence what you are doing is supporting your own destruction. I am fully cognizant that tens of millions of Americans are loyal to their party even though that party is destroying their lives, their livelihoods and their children's future. I am fully cognizant that tens of millions of Americans are too afraid to walk away from one of the two wings of the same bird of prey because of uncertainty and the perks promised and delivered by corrupt politicians serving in those parties. It is a difficult situation to say the least, but at some point you have to either withdraw your support for the enemy or go down in flames, and whether Americans choose to acknowledge it or not, we are standing on the cliff of total annihilation.

Sadly, so many Americans really don't know what's going on and this position was once again bolstered last week while I was in Denver. I had surgery on my spine last Wednesday; the hospital discharged me on Thursday and my husband and I began the long drive back home to Texas. The surgery was a 100% complete success to date. The excruciating pain I've lived with since mid-June is blessedly totally gone and other than the pain from the incision and stitches, I'm on the mend. Hey, I never let an opportunity go by - even dressed up in hospital garb - to ask questions to get a feel for what people are thinking in different parts of the country. Every person I spoke with at hotels, restaurants, the medical facility where I had the tests and conferences with the neurosurgeons and the huge hospital where I was operated on, knew nothing about the North American Union or the "bigger picture." How many do you suppose know anything other than the official line regarding 911? The one topic my fellow Americans from Texas to Denver and back didn't hesitate to give me their opinion about was the war in Iraq and the war on terrorism; the comments were refreshing and not supportive of the Bush regime's war mongering.

Ah, why are we in Iraq? Oh, yeah, 911 and the endless war on terror. Time has shaken out the truth and we know that justification was a big lie. Those who continue to support Bush's one world imperial quest from God always use the same rhetoric: "Haven't you ever heard of Al Qaeda?" If you don't support the war on terrorism or buy the government's version of events on 911, you support terrorists and condone the barbarians known as Islamic radicals. Of course, those family members whose loved ones were slaughtered on 911 and who have fought so hard to get the truth about 911 must all be soft on terrorism. One columnist recently wrote: "And while I will probably receive unnumbered responses to what I've just said from conspiracy believers, what I've said needs to be said because it is estimated that 1/3 of Americans are starting to believe some of these conspiracy theories, proving once again what Nazi propaganda chief Joseph Goebbels said, "If the lie is big enough and told often enough, it will be believed." I'm glad the government has started to address these conspiracy theories and speculations. The sad thing is that there are some people who are more interested in believing what they believe than in knowing the truth."

So, you see - ask any reasonable questions about 9/11, form your own opinion based on hard research and lack of proof by the government as to their version of events and you are a victim of Joseph Gobbels syndrome. Sure, I've heard of Al Qaeda and Ussamah Bin Laden - you know the guy the U.S. government funded and courted behind the scenes - the same U.S. government that funded and supported their good friend, Saddam Hussein, until it became necessary to remove him from power. Anyone who has done five minutes of real research on Bin Laden and the whole Middle East mess understands how rotten and corrupt the past several administrations have been and will continue unless the American people withdraw their support. The other favorite is: "911 conspiracy theorists are the idiots who promote FDR knew the Japanese were going to attack." In my column on this very issue, I scanned a few pages from Stinnett's book, Day of Deceit. These documents cannot be denied. A federal judge ordered their release stemming from a FOIA lawsuit that lasted more than a decade. Let me quote from just two of the official documents released:

TOP SECRET: "On Friday, November 28, 1941, Admiral Harold Stark, the Chief of Naval Operations, restored the previous day's omission by twice repeating that the United States desires that Japan commit the first overt act."

TOP SECRET: "Though it is signed "MARSHALL," this November 27, 1941, war warning message was originated by Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson, acting on the orders of President Roosevelt. It directs the Hawaiian U.S. Army commander, Lieutenant General Walter Short, to follow an official U.S. government desire; "the U.S. desires that Japan commit the first overt act."

Of course, there is much more to Pearl Harbor than just those two documents, but I encourage you to follow up on this by reading my column on it linked above. Naturally, those in denial will emphatically cry out those documents don't mean what they say.

911 is becoming an extremely divisive issue, pitting Americans against each other and it's gotten very ugly. Like hundreds of other journalists, I have written a number of columns on 911. Sadly, some Americans are so dumb, they don't even comprehend what they read in my columns and post nonsense to blogs citing things I allegedly said in a column that aren't even there! Amazing. My last column on the FOIA lawsuit I filed brought a deluge of supportive mail. On the other hand, some of the e-mailers insist that the government's version of events is correct and provided me with many links to bolster their position.

One man who initially threatened me, came back and decided to send me several links which he claims proves the buildings collapsed because of the fires. I looked at the photos and they tell me nothing. You can't judge a book by its cover and that's why I so highly recommend 911 Mysteries: Demolitions, because this 90 minute professional presentation covers in-depth what went on inside the buildings, who was in charge of security and the strange power shut down the weekend before 911 at the twin towers. I have come to the conclusion regarding 911 that there is going to be disagreement for all kinds of reasons, mostly because Americans simply cannot and will not believe the government's story is not what really happened. However, this should not justify the increasing hostile attacks by those who do believe mother government's story against those who are seeking the truth.

I would like to bring forward two more items about 911 that many Americans may not be familiar with; I can only cram so much into each column. The first is Norm Minetta's testimony in front of the 911 Omission Commission and I'll reprint comments from a gentleman who contacted me right after my Flight 93 investigation was posted. He has been keenly interested in the remains of the passengers; this is his recent post to me:

Hi, Devvy. I was pulling together some notes for a blog entry this evening when it hit me: Norman Minetta's 4-minute searing 9/11 Commission testimony reveals the officially covered-up fates of Flights 93 and 77. Bear with me; I have visual evidence.

"In June, James Fetzer, founder of Scholars for 9/11 Truth, appeared on Hannity and Colmes. When asked by Colmes for evidence of White House complicity in 9/11, Fetzer outed former Transportation Secretary Norm Minetta for his testimony years before that outed Dick Cheney for his role in the operational bunker that fateful morning.

"If you're equipped with high-speed internet, take a look at the first two minutes of Fetzer's Fox interview when he busts Minetta for busting Cheney. Watch it here. Then the day after Fetzer's 22 June appearance on Fox, Minetta resigned. See here. Well, I didn't get it in my head until this evening to pay closer attention to Minetta's response to 9/11 Commissioner Hamilton revealed in this widely-circulated video clip.

"If you listen to it carefully enough, Minetta not only confirms he learned of a shoot-down order for Flight #93 but that he entered the command bunker shortly after Cheney had given a stand-down order for Flight #77 on its way at the time to Washington, D.C. Isn't that utterly amazing. Right in plan sight. I had never really listened to Minetta's testimony until this evening. You probably have made this connection, but I am stunned. Minetta's testimony, of course, was predictably maringalized the final 9/11 Commission report."

I have watched this video clip several times and it most certainly deserves wide dissemination. I also received mail from a man who sent me a web site about another plane landing at Cleveland Hopkins that morning which, quite frankly, blew me away as I had not read about this and I've tried to read everything on 911 - both sides of the argument representing hundreds of hours of research. There are two links, here and here. I found you have to read the first one to thoroughly understand the continuation in the second one. It took several hours to go through these two sites, not just because of the narrative and time lines, but because I hit on every link used as source reference material - including eye witness accounts from passengers. Here again, let me refer people to Paul Thompson's Timeline and Michael Ruppert's fully documented book, Crossing the Rubicon, for their meticulous reporting and analysis of the numerous military operations which coincidentally just happened to be underway during the attacks on 911. This is a crucial section of the puzzle and absolutely germane to the issue of Flight 93.

After reading this information about a second plane, I am more convinced than ever the FOIA I filed is critical. As I have said many times, there was unbelievable confusion that morning as the horrors of the day unfolded. Hard documentation is of paramount importance and the data I requested in my FOIA from the FAA will help in sorting out events. There is one update on my lawsuit. While I was in Denver having surgery, the General Counsel for the FAA in DC phoned me; my home, doggies and bird sitters were kind enough to take a message from him. As this column goes to press before business today, I won't find out what this FAA attorney has to say until I return his call, but I will keep readers updated in future columns.
