"The U.S. national security state is a war machine positioned within a geopolitical landscape. It must have a localizable enemy for it its powers to appear legitimate; its biggest threat is that the enemy disappears. But given a war, even a Cold War, and now given an ill-defined yet total “war on terrorism,” the declared “state of emergency” is justification for suspending the rights and freedoms of citizens. It justifies arresting and holding individuals without due process. It justifies killing and bombing without oversight or accountability. It justifies secrecy, censorship, and a monopoly over the accumulation and dissemination of information. All of these state practices are totalitarian, of course." - Susan Buck-Morss, November 7, 2001The day after September 11, 2001, a British tabloid newspaper ran the headline "APOCALYPSE." It was the perfect word to describe the events of that day, and foreshadowed events that came after as a result of the attacks on the World Trade Center. Any other word would have missed the mark.
In Greek, the word apocalypse means "lifting of the veil" or "revelation," as in, "a disclosure of something hidden from the majority of mankind in an era dominated by falsehood and misconception, i.e. the veil to be lifted," (Wikipedia). When people use the word apocalypse they imagine doom and destruction, not mental awakening or mental salvation, but it seems they should because apocalypse is another word for political, social, and cultural awakening.
The dark version of apocalyptic thinking after 9/11 increased tenfold, and has matured into full-blown fear about the future of mankind and the future of the planet. Indeed, many people believe the world is going to end. But that fear is irrational. In the year 999 A.D. many Christian sects in Europe believed the world was going to end, too, but they were proven wrong. The phenomenon is known as millenarianism. For a lot of people, belief trumps evidence. Once people accept rigid beliefs about the world, how history has developed, and what the future holds they become mentally trapped and enslaved to their old beliefs. They automatically reject new evidence that proves their beliefs are wrong, choosing instead to go on thinking about the meaning of world events like 9/11 as when they first learned about them.
It is scary enough when average people fear that the world is going to end and that we live in the last days, but when people with people within government are enslaved by such fears then we are in big trouble. And this is the case today. From what I've read, some government officials in high authority in Iran, Israel, and the United States believe that we live in the last days, and that their religious fantasies will come true after a great war. The majority of decision-makers in these governments probably think differently about the future, but they might not be as well organized or as well motivated as the crazy religious guys. In Iran, religious officials believe the Mahdi is coming back; in the U.S. military, beliefs about the second coming of Christ are no less popular; and similar ideas are widespread in right-wing communities in Israel. The threat to world peace and global harmony because of beliefs about the "end of the world" should not be downplayed. Groups who are committed to the belief that there isn't a future in which they can prosper and grow pose a great danger to the rest of society.
What we need now more than ever is the spirit of optimism. There is a good side to the present age of apocalypse as well as a dark side. Just like in 1001 A.D., the world will go on, and new inventions and innovations will be made by new geniuses. The question is what kind of world are we heading into? Will it be a world dominated by war and tyranny, or peace and freedom? These questions take us back to 9/11. There is tons of evidence that proves that the official account of what happened on that day is a big lie. What America experienced was not an act of terrorism by Islamic extremists, but the worst act of treason in American history. Members of the Bush administration, including the President and Vice President, along with corrupt members of the U.S. National Security State and Israel's Mossad planned and committed the 9/11 attacks to a create a justification for a new global war on terrorism, and also to take away the liberties of the people in Western countries under the banner of security.
Cicero, the Roman philosopher and statesman, said a "nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within." It is hard to rethink 9/11, and frame it in a different historical context, but this task must be done in order to understand the motives of the traitors who did the crime and bring them to justice. Regaining freedom in America and the West has to begin with naming the political crisis for what it is: high treason. More from Cicero:
An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.The media's thought police bans all talk about treason and government terrorism. The traitors within the United States government have successfully framed truth-telling as crazy and conspiratorial. Two days ago, Rudy Giuliani, the former New York City Mayor, called a woman who asked him about the controlled demolition collapse of Building 7 a "conspiracy nut," and that she needed psychiatric help. Not long after, she was forcefully removed by a security agent.
Giuliani can get away with dismissing truth-tellers and patriots today, but the day will come when acting like a tyrant and calling people "nuts" won't fly. It is taking a long time to deconstruct the official consensus about 9/11 but we shouldn't be discouraged. Changing history and changing minds takes time. The treason on 9/11 wasn't done in a day, it took years of planning. Why should patriots expect history to work differently when they seek to change it? The fact that change happens slowly is a sign that real spiritual and psychological change is taking place, the only kind of change that matters in the long run. The struggle to regain freedom and restore the social contract in Western society didn't begin on 9/12, freedom was lost long before 9/11 and the fight to regain it was started long before, too. Generations of writers and activists worked hard to spread knowledge about false-flag terrorism, central banking fraud, the CIA assassination of JFK, and other taboo topics.
We are privileged to live in an age with revolutionary communication technologies to spread knowledge and help people relearn recent history. Discovering new information that shatters your worldview and makes you question everything you believe in is necessary for freedom and justice to breathe again in America and the West. Waking up on a bed of lies is not fun, but it is better than dying in your sleep.
We can never forgive, and never forget who did 9/11, and why they did it. Innocent people were murdered by powerful individuals who captured the U.S. government to advance their criminal agenda for America and the Middle East. On that day freedom was destroyed, and history was turned on its head. The traitors and tyrants in the White House deceived and betrayed the people who brought them to power, and the people who let them stay in power because they believed America was a free country. How did the traitors in Washington return the generosity of the American people? By killing, misleading, and enslaving them.
America was attacked from within on 9/11, decades after it was hijacked from within. We cannot forgive the rotten Mayor of New York City, Dick Cheney and the rest of the criminal traitors in the Bush administration, and the state terrorists in Israel's Mossad. They must face justice in this world, not the next one. The day we forget that they betrayed justice and freedom is the day we lose our humanity. We can never forget that they committed crimes in the name of America and humanity, and in contempt of the law. Their treason against mankind and God can never be forgiven or forgotten. On 9/11 they sought to obliterate free thought and the spirit of freedom, not just a couple of tall buildings in Manhattan.
Facing the shocking truth is painful, but not as much as facing shock troops who will most likely be used and manipulated to enforce martial law on our streets. The work of justice and peace that is ahead of us depends on us not forgetting what really happened on 9/11. Tyrants succeed when the people fail to point out their crimes and lies.
Thank God that not all men were silent on the morning of 9/11 and the days after that horrible tragedy. William Cooper was not silent. Alex Jones was not silent. The Jersey Girls were not silent. Countless more voices spoke the truth bravely and passionately despite being called freaks and wackos for simply questioning their government. When Pat Tillman died and his death was used for propaganda purposes, his family spoke up. When the traitors in the White House ousted the CIA agent Valerie Plame, she and her husband Joseph Wilson spoke up. And now, nearly ten years after 9/11, more heroic voices have emerged to wake the people up and teach them that state terrorists and traitors hijacked the American government. Jesse Ventura is doing an unbelievable job of educating the American people through his bestselling books, popular television show, and talk show appearances. I am hopeful about the future because there are many truth-telling heroes in America and around the world. The truth is a powerful force. Let's never forget that.
A great and historical change is possible. America's history of supporting free speech and free thought makes it a unique and resilient country. The treasonous tyrants in Washington won't succeed forever. They are not gods, they are only men. It is a matter of time before real and noble patriots lead America again, and end its poisonous and corrupt private banking system which is a surrogate for a private global empire.
"When I despair," said Gandhi, "I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won. There have been tyrants and murderers and for a time they seem invincible but in the end, they always fall - think of it, always."
