It's much more accurate to say the NYT was an uncritical cheerleader for the invasion of Iraq,

That's closer but still not accurate. It apologized for not asking certain questions very hard. Maybe that was a failing but its not the same as being a cheerleader.

Hope for all 9/11 truth seekers. The guilty are beginning to crack.

Hope for all 9/11 truth seekers. The guilty are beginning to crack.

Today's AOL poll 50 percent of voters now believe the government is involved (AOL was a few months ago filled with Bush lovers). Today's CNN Poll showed 70 percent believe 9/11 was an inside job.

Professionally I teach stress management for corporations. I have observed Rumsfeld and Rice's behavior lately on TV. They are terrified. They can barely breathe. There is a defeatism and terror in their eyes and frantic speech patterns, that were not long ago so arrogant and proud.

Why? Because as we've all realized, the 9/11 lies are so incredibly transparent, once people get thru the media blockade of propaganda and realize how absolutely transparent the 9/11 fraud was. Millions have done that. The few thousand of us that were bouncing off the walls to get the truth out, have now been replaced with reinforcements. People not burned out from our years of struggle. People with fire and energy, and a burning need to get truth out far and fast.

Bush, is a different story. He's too stupid to be as afraid as he should be at this point, but even he is now terrified. However, as Rumsfeld, Rice, etc.s fear grows . . . he too will become increasingly frantic and frazzled. Cheney is AWOL, probably because he most of all is terrified. Which I think is why he got drunk and shot a guy, because he was smart enough to see they were caught before any of the others fully realized it.

Even the most conservative 9/11 poll shows one in every three people you meet on the street in America know the Administration is complicit in the 9/11 attacks. Most polls show between 50 percent and 70 percent do.

Keep contacting the media, demanding answers. Keep showing up at public meetings, Congressional town meetings, etc. demanding answers. Keep emailing st911.org and Loose Change to everyone you can. Leaflet at the coming opening of "World Trade Centers" movie.

Gandhi said, "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win."

The last weeks have seen their clumsy attempts to fight us, futilely, as the truth is so much more powerful and real than any tricks they might pull out. We all know what the next step is now that they are fighting us. Media that once attacked viscously is softening their attacks. They don't want to end up looking like accomplices.

The war in Lebanon, is a temporary distraction. Eventually media eyes will turn back home, and the truth of 9/11 will be here waiting. People all across this nation are now talking about 9/11 being an inside job, in bars, and restaurants, and around dinner tables. They are looking at websites, and reading Vanity Fair, and watching C-SPAN. The awakening spreads every day, even as TV cameras focus on Lebanon.

"There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible. But in the end they always fall. Think of it. Always."
-- Mahatma Gandhi
