9/11 Divides: Two opposing realities haunt America

A growing phenomenon in the United States, Canada, and Britain, is that the everyday reality and identity of individual people is markedly different from reality as portrayed by the mainstream media.

This phenomenon applies to commercial advertising, to entertainment and sports, to political coverage, and to the news. Perhaps the most striking example of this situation can be seen from a thorough examination of the difference between what people saw and heard on 9/11, and the official account that was finally commissioned 441 days after the event.

Very little of the evidence from 9/11 has penetrated the mainstream media. For example, most people have never heard of WTC-7, a 47-storey building two blocks from the towers, whose controlled demolition at 5:20 pm on 9/11 occurred at freefall speed into its own footprint. This can be seen at
http://www.wtc7.net/videos.html on CBS footage.

It is staggering how much of the evidence from that day was seized and made inaccessible to the public. For example, the blueprints for the World Trade Center are being withheld from the public domain. Why should this be necessary?

This alone is enough to stimulate curiosity. Accordingly, a Google search of "9/11" brings up over 200,000,000 hits. Half of the top 20 most consulted websites are seeking more information on 9/11, which indicates that the country is divided right down the middle on the official story.

In view of the seriousness of this matter, and in light of public interest, how can it be that the most scholarly work questioning the evidence, "The New Pearl Harbor" (2004), by American author Dr. David Ray Griffin -- a highly respected process philosopher and theologian -- has never been reviewed by a mainstream newspaper?

How can the media have ignored Griffin's book, when the US Treasury is in staggering debt ($133,000 per family) over a war which owes its justification to the official story on 9/11? The people of the United States and of the world need to be able to judge for themselves what happened that day, so that their own realities can be formed on the basis of open and tangible evidence.

Calling now for such evidence is a slate of top politicians, economists, and leaders listed at

The Physics911 Scientific Panel Investigating Nine-Eleven has prepared a list of authoritative weblinks where ongoing research is available, at

Until this deeply divisive matter has been cleared up, the world will continue to live with two realities. The worst part of this is that the blanketing, impenetrable mainstream network is the controlling reality, whether its offerings are based on truth or not.

A hold should be placed on all life-threatening military actions in the MIddle East until one consistent reality has emerged from an independent international investigation. Then the shame that is being felt by millions of Americans who have begun to doubt and suspect their government can lift, and self-respect take its place.

Equipped with knowledge and self-respect, the West could begin to rebuild its vision of a world based on realistic, informed and democratic objectives. The planet and its occupants have so much to gain!

Excellent article. Expecially I like the idea that all life-threatening action in the Mid East should be stopped until the truth is revealed.

Yes! If you Google: 911 wtc, you get many more questions about the official story than stories supporting it. It's as if everyone has finally realized they have heard one shoe drop, and they are just waiting for the other one which they know will be equally explosive: the definitive 911 exposé.
