Anti-war Icon Cindy Sheehan Supports 9/11 Truth and a New 9/11 Investigation

Speaking in Burlington, Vermont this past Friday evening, March 2nd, 2007, grieving mother, anti-war activist and author Cindy Sheehan extended her hand in support of researchers and activists skeptical of the official line on the 9/11 terror attacks and publicly questioned several key features in the establishment mythos surrounding the event.

When asked the question, “Do you buy into the government's account of events on 9/11 and if not, which part or parts do you suspect or have you proven to be false,” Sheehan:

1) called attention to the relevance of 9/11 by linking it to the claims used to justify the war in Iraq and her son's death there;
2) lent verbal support to a new, democratically-led 9/11 investigation;
3) lent verbal support and urged others to lend their support to 9/11 Truth researchers and activists;
4) referenced the video, “Loose Change” (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7866929448192753501); and
5) referenced David Ray Griffin's book, The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions about the Bush Administration and 9/11 (http://physics911.ca/pdf/2004/griffin_pearl_harbor.pdf)

A video clip of the event is posted at the following URLs:

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4256642222957028300 (Google Video)

The surprise statement came just a few days before Tuesday's town meeting vote in Burlington and Lincoln on a resolution asking voters, "Shall Vermont's Congressional Delegation be advised to demand a new, thorough, and truly independent forensic investigation that fully addresses the many questions surrounding the tragic events of September 11, 2001?"

If the vote carries, the event will mark a significant turning point in popular expression of skepticism about the official story regarding these crimes. In 2006, an on-line CNN poll (http://edition.cnn.com/POLLSERVER/results/23968.exclude.html) saw 83% agreement that a cover-up had taken place, while more scientifically-secure data collection in 2004 by Zogby (http://www.zogby.com/search/ReadNews.dbm?ID=855) found that only 33% of New Yorkers found the commission's report adequate. Tuesday's town meeting vote will be the first legal test of the matter via established routes of democratic government.

Anti-war Frenzy 3/07-4/07

There is a particularly dense cluster of actions against the conquest of Iraq (based partly on the attacks on the WTC and Pentagon) scheduled to take place between early March and the beginning of May, as well as a concerted impeachment campaign taking place in several states including New Mexico and Vermont. Read Nabil's blog (linked below) to remember why and read about the resistance at the others. Also note that several of the campaigns feature invitations for organizations to join, and 'truth-friendly' World Can't Wait is already a member of at least one of them.

Sit-in for Justice re: Death of Martin Anderson

Some have called it “60's Paradigm” (as opposed to “Information Age Paradigm”) but, for some of those demanding truth and justice in the death of Martin Anderson, sit-ins are very much a part of the deal. Could they work to open 9/11 again?

Internet, Phone and Mail Campaigns

Name: Operation Vid2Congress, Round 1
Description: A mass mailing of two informative 911 videos to Congressional representatives. The two recommended videos are: 1) 9/11 Mysteries Part I: Demolitions (3 parts) 2) 9/11 Press for the Truth. Where to Download the Videos, if you want to burn them to a DVD (right click SAVE AS): http://www.question911.com/linksall.htm; http://911files.net/; http://www.universalseed.org. Where to Purchase the Videos, if you don't know how to burn a DVD: http://www.question911.com/linksall.htm (911 Mysteries); http://www.911weknow.com/911-mysteries-movie.html; http://www.911dvdproject.com; http://www.flybynews.com; Ebay: 911truthmovement (LC2 is $2.30 including shipping). How to Find your Congressional representative: Go to: http://www.congress.org. On this website you can search by Zip Code and find your respective two Senators and the House Representative for your district. Due to Congressional courtesy, contact only one House Representative, that being the representative for your respective voting district. Mailing Instructions: Call the local office of each Senator and Representative, and ask if they will forward a DVD to Washington. Then ask for their local address. It might be best to send it via Fed Ex so that the package can be tracked. I would follow up to make sure they received it. Sample Letter to Congressional representatives (Senators and Representatives): Dear Senator/Representative: There are many Americans who feel there are too many unanswered questions regarding the events of 911. We request that the investigation be reopened. Enclosed are two videos entitled "9/11 Mysteries Part I: Demolitions" and "9/11 Press for the Truth" that have caused many to seek answers to the many outstanding questions about that fateful day. We would respectfully request that every Congressional representative take an hour out of their time, and view each of these videos. We believe that one can only reopen the 911 investigation after seeing them. There are many videos in the public arena presently, but we feel these are fair, informative and reveal many unanswered questions about 911. We feel that the 911 Commission did not go far enough, nor ask the tough questions necessary to get to the truth. We are requesting the investigation be reopened and that the mission this time be to find the truth, the whole truth, with no stone left unturned. Sincerely, (your name)
