1. Coalitions everywhere!

>>US Social Forum Supports Call for Independent, International Investigation into 9/11
Thanks to donations from some of our generous supporters, 911truth.org was present at the first ever United States Social Forum, along with 15 other 9/11 truth activists from six states. We attended with the idea we'd have to convince people to look at the need for a real investigation, but what we learned was that most everyone was already aware of some important 9/11 questions and agreed with us! Even better, we introduced a Resolution demanding an "independent, international investigation of 9/11" which received resounding applause by thousands in attendance at the final Peoples Assembly! Full story at http://www.911truth.org/article.php?story=20070702180355632

>>Philadelphia Emergency Anti-War Conference -- ‘Activists Unite Forging a New Vision and Strategy’
A Coalition of twenty-four activist groups gathered at Independence Center on July Fourth, 2007 for the Philadelphia Emergency Anti-War Convention. Three-hundred activists united to repeat history; as our forefathers/mothers of this nation did, we too must face tyranny, realizing the urgency to change the corrupt system causing so much suffering. Convention participants acknowledged how crucial it is we work together to achieve our vision. Distinguished speakers provided education and insights for the participants, and delegates identified actions listed to work as a collaborative effort. Action ideas put forth by the coalition in attendance were broadly diverse and very exciting, and plans are being finalized now to be announced soon. Many more details about the event are availble at www.actindependent.org

>>Building a NYC Mega-Network of Activist Communities
Sunday, July 22nd @ 6 PM; St. Marks Church, 2nd Ave. & 10th Street, Manhattan
New York City Activist Groups will meet to address the root cause of activist concerns using a collaborative approach. We are in a time of great opportunity and grave danger. The opportunity includes regaining lost democratic liberties and extends to the spiritual awakening of our planet. Like any journey to such high goals, we must start from where we are at. (Full details at 911truth.org Calendar)

>>Impeachment Coalitions
The LA Impeachment Center, a coalition that includes Peter Thottam and the fine activists with www.911truthla.net, is in full swing, garnering attention from both media and congress. This is an excellent result of coalition-building efforts by 911truthers working with others. Check out this model and latest exciting news from the center at www.bcimpeach.com. Imagine, an impeachment center in every city! Last week's http://www.americanresearchgroup.com impeachment poll showed 45% favor impeaching Bush, and 54% favor impeaching Cheney. Kucinich’s House Resolution 333 now has 13 cosponsors (where are the others?) and has now been referred to the House Subcommittee on the Constitution. The number of coalitions now working together on impeachment are simply remarkable. Check out www.impeach07.org for a long list of these (including www.a28.org, which includes even more members, including 911truth.org) and get involved.

>>National Referendum?
On July 12, Paul Craig Roberts suggested another option…"A Referendum on Bush and Cheney: Restoring the People's Power"

...If America is to remain a democracy, the people need refurbished powers to hold "government of the people, by the people, for the people" accountable. One way of doing this would be a vote of confidence by the people. The question can be put to a national referendum: "Shall the President remain in office?" "Shall the Vice President remain in office?" The state of Florida does this for judges, including Florida's Supreme Court, so there is precedent for allowing the people to decide whether officials may remain in office. As the American people can no longer rely on elected officials to respond to public opinion, the people must do what they can to gather power back into their hands before they become the subjects of tyrants.

Whatever you’re doing right now, find or make the time and energy to work to restore our Republic. There’s no time to waste, and it will take all of us to succeed. We are the People!!

>>Declare Yourself!
Had enough? Opposed to the direction in which this country's going? Then Declare Yourself! Orange Fridays begin July 27th ... get involved, wear orange! Be visible, be counted.

2. Action Items/Get Involved

Significant New York City Initiative Needs Immediate Participation to Succeed
www.NYC911Initiative.com has launched in New York City, which will put an initiative to demand 9/11 investigation and more on the ballot in New York City this fall. If you are in NYC, sign the petition, and help get other signatures. If you're not in NYC, send this link to everyone you know in the city.

9/11 Press For Truth Campaign
www.911pressfortruth.com outlines another campaign, being supported by Democrats.org, Progressive Democrats of America and others (where are you, conservatives?), calling for showings of this excellent film during the first week in August, and to put copies of the film and the Family Steering Committee's Review of the 9/11 Commission Report into the hands of every member of Congress, asking them to support and expand upon Kucinich's 9/11 hearings, which he's committed to holding in September.

3. Calendar
The Calendar continues to provide information about myriad events around the nation. Plans are being finalized now for 6th anniversary events in New York City and Washington DC, with significant work happening to make them politically significant. Stay tuned for details as they are announced. The numbers in attendance this year, at events across the US, will be astounding.

We especially want to draw your attention to an event this weekend in Queens, NY, to benefit the 9/11 First Responders, and ask you to consider making a donation to them, even if you can’t attend:

Want to hear Doo Wop artists that make you “FealGood,” and enjoy a concert designed to help many 9/11 First Responders and their families? Friend Entertainment, Ltd., along with the FealGood Foundation, will be hosting a “Doo-Wop for the First Responders of 9/11” concert at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, July 21 at Queens College's Kupferberg Center for the Performing Arts/Colden Auditorium. All of the profits from the show will go to foundations for the families of the First Responders of 9/11.

4. Important Recent Articles

Bioweapons Expert Says Anthrax Attacks Could Have Originated inside US Government. In an article posted at AfterDowningStreet.org, Francis A. Boyle, an international law expert who worked under the first Bush Administration as a bioweapons advisor in the 1980s, has said that he is convinced the October 2001 anthrax attacks that killed five people were perpetrated and covered up by criminal elements of the U.S. government. The motive: to foment a police state by killing off and intimidating opposition to post-9/11 legislation such as the USA PATRIOT Act and the later Military Commissions Act.

Giuliani Taking Serious Heat from Firefighters and 9/11 Victims’ Families. Giuliani is not America’s Mayor. He is not a hero. Yet polls show he’s the Republican frontrunner in this early presidential race… NYC Firefighters are correcting the record. Time to make sure the nation knows what these firefighters, and other New Yorkers, know to be true. Forward this information widely.

Responders Continue to go without Help ...
While tens of thousands suffer from the toxic fallout at Ground Zero, the WTC Captive Insurance Co., controlled by Mayor Bloomberg, drains the fund intended to be used for ill workers. For your convenience in reviewing the historical record stating the original mandate for this allocation, we have appended the press release from Governor Pataki and Mayor Bloomberg, issued March 21, 2003. In an amazing twist of irony, the Bloomberg appointed CEO and President of the WTC Captive Insurance Co. draws a salary of $350,000 and receives $20,000 annually in health benefits. Full story.

5. Online Store Specials and Fundraising
It is definitely time for a new national poll, and 911truth.org is preparing questions now to begin negotiations with a legitimate, respected polling organization. If you can contribute to this effort, which costs $1,000 per question plus $500-1000 for their professional analysis, please contribute ASAP. Please earmark your donation for the poll. In addition, with 150+ groups now forming and organizing, we have a real need to provide our new National Grassroots Coordinator with a salary to be able to really be effective in helping these groups grow, and making us all more effective. If networking and effective organizing is important to you, this is a significant way to help out. Our heartfelt Thank You! to everyone who is making one-time and monthly subscriber contributions.

Purchasing products from our 911truth.org E-store is another way to help support the organization. Thanks to the many, many folks who have placed a banner link on your sites, and to everyone who has ordered materials. The ever popular Deception Dollars creators have Version 10 in the works, and we will notify you as soon as they’re ready. This month we’ve received Daniel Hopsicker’s excellent works, “Welcome to Terrorland: Mohammed Atta and the 9-11 Coverup in Florida” and “Barry and ‘the Boys’” available in lower cost paperback, and we’ve created a special that includes both books, and another one to include his video, "The Secret History: Mohammed Atta and the Venice Flying Circus." In addition, we feel the information about 9/11’s toxic aftermath is so important, we’ve reduced by 25% the price of Penny Little’s excellent documentary, “9/11 Dust & Deceit at the World Trade Center”.

6. Grassroots Organizing Forum
Thanks to the dedication and generosity of a fine activist and human being, Michael Hagar, we now have a forum available for 911truth.org-affiliated organizers and activists to discuss how-to, problems, solutions, and ideas online, at www.911truthconnect.org. Check it out!

BREAKING NEWS! Rep. Kucinich Publicly Acknowledges Need for 9/11 Investigation

"Kucinich brings hard-nosed arguments"

In an article published today at TimesUnion.com Kucinich

said that as chairman of a House subcommittee on domestic policy, he plans to launch an investigation of "a narrow portion" of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. He offered few details, but said his subcommittee would be looking at "a few, specific discrepancies in the public record." The 9/11 Commission that published its final report in 2004 never resolved some conflicting facts, Kucinich said. He announced his own look at 9/11 in answer to a question from an audience member. The man complained that the 9/11 Commission was too tied to the Bush administration to offer an unbiased report, and Kucinich agreed.

We encourage readers to share this information with your lists, and to contact Rep. Kucinich with a note of support at http://kucinich.us/contact. You might also wish to express gratitude to this TimesUnion reporter, Dan Higgins, by e-mail at dhiggins@timesunion.com.

Secondly, Rep. Kucinich is asking blog readers, "Impeachment: I'm asking you. Do you think it's time?" http://kucinich.us/node/3696

Please take a moment and reply to Rep. Kucinich's question at that page ... "Yes, and please include Articles of Impeachment for criminal negligence and obstruction of justice arising from the crimes of September 11th, 2001."

1. 911truth.org Spring Fundraiser Kicks Off
It is with a small amount of anxiety and a great deal of hope that we announce our 911truth.org Spring 2007 Fundraiser. Many of you have already received an email from us, but many may not have, due to bulk mailing snafus and the like. If you have already donated during this drive, we thank you very much. If you have not, please consider contributing at this critically important time.

You probably know that 911truth.org gets by on a very small administrative budget, yet there are so many things we want to do! We need your support more than ever. Without it, many of the projects we have planned for the year may be in jeopardy, including:
--National conference in August
--New National Poll
--Producing new, valuable materials for free distribution, like a “Top 40 Reasons to Doubt the Official Story” DVD and pamphlet
--Sending representatives of 911Truth.org to meet with Congresspersons and Senators, and to represent the movement at coalition events where our voice must be heard.
--Promotion and advertising of the 911 Truth message, demanding a new, independent investigation of 9/11 and real justice for the victims. For instance, as many of you have suggested, we’d like to see 9/11 Truth billboards everywhere!

Our goal for this spring is $50,000, and every contribution – large or small – helps and is genuinely appreciated. There are a number of ways to support the efforts of 911truth.org. You can become a monthly sustainer for as little as $5/month, make a one-time donation, offer in-kind donations or select premium items from our resource center donations page. Please take a moment to make your donation now and help us keep going strong!

2. Conference Being Planned for mid-August

911truth.org. is in the early planning stages of a national conference to be held in mid-August, with a location and theme to be announced shortly. The conference will focus on the problems with the way the major media report stories like 9/11, and discuss strategies for re-taking, and re-making, the public airwaves. We'll have a more thorough description of the conference along with dates and location in our next newsletter.

3. Bowman Tour USA, Calling All Patriots
Dr. Bob Bowman, the retired USAF Lieutenant Colonel and recent candidate for the US House of Representatives, has embarked on a national tour to awaken the citizenry to the drift toward fascism in the US and to call on people to unite in demanding a return to constitutional rule.

"There is a Bible verse which says, 'There is no longer male nor female, Jew nor Greek, slave nor free …' I would like to adapt that idea to our purpose. 'There is no longer Republican nor Democrat, conservative nor liberal, hawk nor dove. There are only we Patriots speaking truth to power and taking back our country for the people.'"

Bowman’s statement of purpose and link to the full tour schedule are posted at: http://www.911truth.org/article.php?story=20070301114303980

4. Mark Crispin Miller Promotes David Ray Griffin's New Book

The irrepressible and brilliant Mark Crispin Miller, a strong supporter of 9/11 skepticism, has posted a summary on his blog of David Ray Griffin's new book, "Debunking 9/11 Debunking: An Answer to Popular Mechanics and Other Defenders of the Official Conspiracy Theory." http://markcrispinmiller.blogspot.com/2007/03/debunkers-debunked.html Griffin's book is not scheduled to be out until May, but you can pre-order it from 911truth.org here. Speaking of Griffin, if you have not read his excellent essay on the use of 9/11 as a pretext for imperial wars, and the place of 9/11 crimes in the impeachment debate, see this article.

5. Steering Committee/Advisory Board Change

Long-time 911truth.org steering committee member Gabriel Day has moved from the steering committee to the 911truth.org advisory board. We thank Gabriel for his tireless efforts on behalf of 9/11 truth, particularly surrounding last year's Chicago conference and building a national network of 911truth activists, and look forward to his continued involvement in this new role. For more info about who’s who at 911truth.org, our Mission Statement and Editorial Policy, Achievements and Goals, please review the section linked from About Us at the main page. Please send emails specifically about outreach and networking to outreach@911truth.org.

6. Week-long National Corporate Shopping Boycott begins April 15

We hope you’re preparing now for the April 15-22, Tax Day to Earth Day, National Shopping Boycott when we’re asked to avoid all corporate shopping and truly consider where we’re putting our money. The site includes some great resources for learning some truth about corporations, banks, contractors, and political money. Lew Brown, National Coordinator of the boycott, explains: “"By holding back on our spending, with discipline and resolve and in sympathy for the millions who live in misery because of this administration's policies, we not only show our concern for the pain of others, we also put a little fear in the hearts of those who have profited from this travesty." This is a significant opportunity to take power into your own hands, as one participant in a much larger, coordinated effort—join in and Be the Resistance!

7. Take Action!

Get involved! Many specific ideas for action are listed at our article, "Now that you know, what can you do?"
Join a local group – check out the list of local organizers at the Grassroots Contacts page. Nobody in your area? Become the contact to form your own local group.
And watch the 9/11 Calendar for events near you. Know of an event that’s not listed there? Post it, or forward that link to the event organizer. It’s open to everyone hosting 9/11-related events. We are everywhere!

Steering Committee member Michael Berger has several interviews coming up (one tonight!), in coordination with the national Improbable Collapse Tour. Check the calendar for details, and contact him at Mike@911truth.org to schedule a tour stop in your area. For more details about the movie, “Improbable Collapse: The Demolition of our Republic,” a wealth of background information and the movie trailer, check out improbablecollapse.com.” This week, Improbable Collapse hit the New York times Movie Page!

8. Timely Excerpt from Gary Sick's "October Surprise, America’s Hostages in Iran and the Election of Ronald Reagan" published by Random House in 1991.

Why don't more citizens accept the possibility that powerful people within the halls of power are capable of "crimes that make the laws tremble"? Here are some profound comments on the subject from former National Security Council member Gary Sick. He was speaking about the sociopolitical situation in the 1980s with respect to the Iran-Contra scandal and the October Surprise, but he may just have easily been talking about today's sociopolitical climate. If anything, the climate today is more hostile to truth-telling.

From pages 226 - 228:

"We are accustomed to the petty scandals of Washington politics: A candidate for high office is a lush or a compulsive womanizer; an official lies to cover up an embarrassing policy failure. These are misdeeds on a human scale, and those miscreants who are unfortunate enough or careless enough to get caught are pilloried and punished by the press and their peers in periodic cleansings. We regard such rituals with a certain satisfaction, evidence of our democracy at work.

There is another category of offenses, described by the French poet Andre Chenier as “les crimes puissants qui font trembler les lois,” crimes so great that they make the laws themselves tremble. We know what to do with someone caught misappropriating funds, but when confronted with evidence of a systematic attempt to undermine the political system itself, we recoil in a general failure of imagination and nerve.

We understand the motives of a thief, even if we despise them. But few of us have ever been exposed to the seductions of power on a grand scale and we are unlikely to have given serious thought to the rewards of political supremacy, much less to how it might be achieved. We know that groups and individuals covet immense power for personal or ideological reasons, but we suppose that those ambitions usually will be pursued within the confines of the laws and values of our society and democratic political system. If not, we assume we will recognize the transgressions early enough to protect ourselves.

Those who operate politically beyond the law, if they are deft and determined, benefit from our often false sense of confidence. There is a natural presumption, even among the politically sophisticated, that ”no one would do such a thing.” Most observers are predisposed toward disbelief, and therefore may be willing to disregard evidence and to construct alternative explanations for events that seem too distasteful to believe. This all-too-human propensity provides a margin of safety for what would otherwise be regarded as immensely risky undertakings.

Illegitimate political covert actions are attempts to alter the disposition of power. Since all of politics involves organized contention over the disposition of power, winners can be expected to maintain that they were only playing the game, while those who complain about their opponents’ methods are likely to be dismissed as sore losers. Even if suspicions arise, the charges are potentially so grave that most individuals will be reluctant to give public credence to allegations in the absence of irrefutable evidence. The need to produce a ”smoking gun” has become a precondition for responsible reporting of political grand larceny. The participants on political covert actions understand this and take pains to cover their tracks, so the chance of turning up incontrovertible Documentation of wrongdoing – such as the White House tapes in the Watergate scandal – is slim.

This leads to a journalistic dilemma. In the absence of indisputable evidence, the mainstream media – themselves large commercial institutions with close ties to the political and economic establishment – are hesitant to declare themselves on matters of great political gravity. The so-called alternative media are less reluctant, but they are too easily dismissed as irresponsible. By the time the mainstream media are willing to lend their names and reputations to a story of political covert action, the principal elements of the story have almost always been reported long before in the alternative media, where they were studiously ignored.

When the Iran-Contra scandal exploded in 1986, both Congress and the media pulled up short. Neither had the stomach for the kind of national trauma that would have resulted from articles of impeachment being delivered against a popular President in who was his last two years in office. So, when it could not be proven conclusively that the President saw the “smoking gun” in the case – a copy of a memo to Reagan reporting in matter-of-fact terms that proceeds of Iranian arms sales were being diverted to the Nicaraguan contras – the nation seemed to utter a collective sigh of relief. (The original memo, bearing the signatures of those who had seen it, had been deliberately destroyed.) The laws trembled at the prospect of a political trial that could shatter the compact of trust between rulers and ruled, a compact that was the foundation upon which the laws themselves rested. The lesson seemed to be that accountability declines as the magnitude of the offense and the power of those charged increase.

The ultimate dilemma, which Chenier captured so perfectly in his comment on the revolutionary politics of eighteenth-century France, is the effect of very high stakes. A run-of-the-mill political scandal can safely be exposed without affecting anyone other than the culprits and their immediate circle. A covert political coup, however, like the one engineered by Casey in 1980, challenges the legitimacy of the political order; it deliberately exploits weaknesses in the political immune system and risks infecting the entire organism of state and society…"
