TRUMP = SWAMP CREATURE
It was 19 SAUDIS who flew those planes. Several 9-11 victim groups have begged Trump to cancel this golf game. His response? Basically, “fuck off”. Specifically, listen to his justification …. it’s ALL about $$$$$$$$$$.
So solly, folks ….. this man has no principles. None. Zilch. Nada. A vote for him is a vote for your own demise.
I voted for Trump. I do NOT have TDS. But, I know that won’t stop you Trumpeteers from raining down dirty words and name calling upon me, The Apostle of Truth. But, I don’t give a rat’s ass.
THE END
Does the American Empire end with a Bang or a Whimper?
The Neocons with their divided loyalty have never regarded US interests as being of much value to them. In a 1996 position paper written for the then Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu titled “A Clean Break. . .” the group of Jewish Neocons advocated this
“The introduction specifically proposes three new policies:
- Rather than pursuing a “comprehensive peace” with the entire Arab world, Israel should work jointly with Jordan and Turkey to “contain, destabilize, and roll-back” those entities that are threats to all three.
- Changing the nature of relations with the Palestinians, specifically reserving the right of “hot pursuit” anywhere within Palestinian territory as well as attempting to promote alternatives to Arafat’s leadership.
- Changing relations with the United States stressing self-reliance and strategic cooperation.”
Of course the third new policy went by the wayside as Israel found it much more effective to let the Americans do their fighting for them and for the US taxpayers to finance all the wars against Israel’s perceived enemies.
Netanyahu rejected the suggestions in the position paper presented to him in 1996 as being too outlandish. So the same group of dual national Jewish and American citizens took their circus to Washington where they were welcomed with open arms by the leaderless Bush administration. The same neocons behind the Netanyahu position paper came up with a new document misnamed The Project for a New Israeli Century.
Being firmly entrenched in the Bush administration when 911 took place they were able to start a series of wars paid for and fought by the United States but all designed to advance the interests of Israel. Indeed, after the attacks, General Wesley Clark went to the Pentagon only ten days past 911 where he was told of the US intention of attacking seven countries after the invasion and attack on Afghanistan.

FBI Says They Still Haven’t Found A Motive For 9/11
Via The Babylon Bee
COLLEYVILLE, TX—In a press conference after the synagogue hostage situation this weekend, the FBI said they are still looking for a motive that would explain why an Islamic extremist would attack a Jewish house of worship.
“Please be patient with us, because determining motive is really really hard,” said Special Agent Deebles McPaddycake to reporters. “To be fair, we still haven’t even figured out a motive for the 9/11 attacks yet. Who knows what drove a coordinated team of Islamic extremists to fly planes into buildings? According to our best experts, these men were victims of white supremacy, and they seemed to really hate buildings—so that’s probably why they did that. We’re still working on it though. It’s a real mystery.”

LIVING IN A POTEMKIN WORLD
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.” ― George Orwell, 1984
“Don’t you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we shall make thoughtcrime literally impossible, because there will be no words in which to express it.” ― George Orwell, 1984
I never thought I would experience the dystopian “fictional” nightmare Orwell laid out in his 1949 novel. Seventy-two years later and his warning about a totalitarian society, where mass surveillance, repressive measures against dissenters, mind control through government indoctrination and propaganda designed to convince the masses lies are truth, fake is real and the narrative can be manipulated to achieve the desired outcome of those in power, have come to fruition.
Everything is fake. I don’t believe anything I’m told by the government, the media, medical “experts”, politicians, military leadership, bankers, corporate executives, religious leaders, financial professionals, and anyone selling themselves as an authority on any subject matter. We are truly living in times of mass deception, mass delusion, and mass willful ignorance.
9/11 and Afghanistan Post-Mortems: Lessons in Safe Logic
Guest Post by Edward Curtain
In the wake of the US withdrawal from Afghanistan and the 20th anniversary of the mass murders of September 11, 2001, the corporate mainstream and alternative media have been replete with articles analyzing the consequences of 9/11 that resulted in the US invasion of Afghanistan and its alleged withdrawal after two decades of war.
These critiques have ranged from mild to harsh, and have covered issues from the loss of civil liberties due to The Patriot Act and government spying through all the wars “on terror” in so many countries with their disastrous consequences and killing fields.
Many of these articles have emphasized how, as a result of the Bush administration’s response to 9/11, the US has lost its footing and brought on the demise of the American empire and its standing in the world. Some writers celebrate this and others bemoan it. Most seem to consider this inevitable.

Covid, 9/11 & Forever War
Guest Post by Kit Knightly
From the war on terror to the “pandemic”, the elite are constructing fake threats to start wars that never have to end.
The war was not meant to be won. It was meant to be continuous.
George Orwell, 1984
Our 9/11 coverage this year, the 20th anniversary, has been focused on viewing the attacks of 2001 through the lens of the Covid “pandemic” rollout.
The point is not that both Covid19 and 9/11 are necessarily part of the same grand plan, were carried out by the same people, or were in any way directly connected. Rather, they are thematically connected, on the meta-level.
They spring from the same collective urge all rulers and governments harbour, and are employed to the same end.
They are different tools designed to achieve the same end. Different approaches to the same problem. Different evolutionary stages of the same animal: The decades-long change in the core aims of warfare and even the very meaning of “war” itself.
Twenty Years On, We’ve Learned Nothing From 9/11
Guest Post by Ron Paul
Nothing upset the Washington Beltway elites more than when in a 2007 presidential debate I pointed out the truth about the 9/11 attacks: they attacked us because we’ve been in the Middle East, sanctioning and bombing the civilian population, for decades. The 9/11 attackers were not motivated to commit suicide terrorism on the Twin Towers and Pentagon because they dislike our freedoms, as then-President Bush claimed. That was a self-serving lie.
They hated – and hate – us because we kill them for no reason. Day after day. Year after year. Right up until just a few days ago, when President Biden slaughtered Zemari Ahmadi and nine members of his family – including seven children – in Afghanistan. The Administration bragged about taking out a top ISIS target. But they lied. Ahmadi was just an aid worker, working for a California-based organization, bringing water to suffering Afghan village residents.

Our pictures from 9/11
In a previous QoTD post – “where were you 20 years ago,” I commented that I had some photos from the roof of a nearby building where I worked shortly after the “attack.”
Here are some photos we took.
QOTD: WHERE WERE YOU 20 YEARS AGO TODAY?
Where were you on the morning of 9/11/2001? What were your remembrances of that day? How did that day change your life?
Me: I was in the IKEA headquarters building in Plymouth Meeting, PA. I was in the midst of the most fulfilling work days I’ve my life. I loved my job as Controller for the real estate division. We were building 9 stores slated to all open within 8 months. I liked my boss and all my colleagues. We were a well oiled machine and we had fun every day. I was responsible for figuring out what sales level these stores would attain, the expected ROI, and the management of over $1 billion in capital expenditures.
9/11 After 20 Years
Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts
Time goes by. It has been 20 years since three World Trade Center skyscrapers designed to withstand airliner collision were destroyed. Building 7 was brought down by controlled demolition as its collapse at free fall acceleration proves conclusively. The destruction of the twin towers was accompanied by a series of explosions, and these buildings also fell into their own footprints at essentially free fall acceleration. The US government’s official coverup story has been totally demolished by authors such as David Ray Griffin, by scholarly conferences, university investigations, expert reports, and by Architects and Engineers for 9/11 truth.
My Personal 9/11 Evidence
Guest Post by Galicant Wiseword
I remember the day I first realized that 9/11 would eventually be forgotten as vividly as I remember the morning of 9/11/2001. I was teaching a Sunday School class, 5th and 6th graders on a Sunday morning a few years after. I, a much younger man at the time, decided to spend the whole hour talking to this small class of boys and girls about the attacks, intending to field questions and address feelings after. After telling the story for about 20 minutes I looked into the vacant eyes of the future. They knew about the details, but they had not experienced the day. For them it was, and will always be, a memory based on someone else’s experience.
20 Years after 9/11 — Are We Better Off?
Guest Post by Pat Buchanan
Looking back at the half dozen Mideast wars in which we have engaged since that first 9/11, where are we better off now than we were then? Al-Qaida, ISIS, Boko Haram and their variants have established a presence in Arab, Asian and African countries far beyond Afghanistan. Looking forward, where do we Americans go from here?
When the hijacked planes hit the twin towers of the World Trade Center and the Pentagon that first 9/11, the Taliban were in control of Afghanistan and providing sanctuary for al-Qaida.
Today, the Taliban are in control of Afghanistan and providing sanctuary to al-Qaida. What then did our longest war accomplish?
The Afghan army and government we stood up and sustained for decades has collapsed. The U.S. military has withdrawn. U.S. citizens and thousands of Afghans who fought alongside us have been left behind.
9/11
Guest Post by Ann Coulter
In honor of the 20-year marker of the 9/11 attacks, I thought I’d run excerpts from a few of my post-9/11 columns.
One point I politely refrained from making 20 years ago: Why was the president of the United States reading “The Pet Goat” to a class of second-graders at the moment our nation was attacked?
I think the “Attack France” column (Dec. 20, 2001) holds up well, mostly because I’d rather be bringing in hundreds of thousands of Frenchmen right now than hundreds of thousands of Afghans. (Who knew the golden ticket to U.S. citizenship was being the country that hosted Osama bin Laden?)
But that column didn’t make the cut. In 2007, the magnificent Gallic made Nicolas Sarkozy the new president of France, and now we’re friends again.
Finally, for the sub-literate: After the defeat of Japan in World War II, Gen. Douglas MacArthur, leader of the occupation, put out a call to American Christians: “Send missionaries and Bibles!” Thousands of missionaries poured in. The same thing happened after the Korean War, with greater success than in Japan.
On this point, there was surprising unanimity. Even President Truman agreed with his nemesis MacArthur, who said: “[Democracy] will endure when it rests firmly on the Christian conception of the individual and society.”
Today, not even a Republican would say that. Good luck, America!

The Real Enemy 20 Years Later
As the 20th anniversary of the September 11th attacks is less than a week away, we need to recall that an entire generation has no idea what life was like before then and has never known the specter of the real enemy of terror.
Let us not forget that fundamentalist Islamic jihad is the constant enemy of western civilization in general, and the United States in particular. That is still unchanged from 20 years ago.
What has changed is the focus of engaging that enemy. Twenty years ago, the USA and close allies defeated over 75% of the threat of Al Qaeda/ISIS/pieces of excrement in Afghanistan before moving to a less essential military theater. Since then, our troops have been put at risk, generals were awarded medals and lucrative board seats in retirement, and no one was held accountable, unless you count courts-martial for servicemen who had an impossible task following rules of engagement that never acknowledged what “winning” a war, another nation’s civil war, would look like.
The Goal of Covidism is Communism
By Doug “Uncola” Lynn via TheBurningPlatform.com
Most of us have heard the phrase: “The goal of socialism is communism”. Perhaps, at its core, the statement is a reference to creeping incrementalism, or, stated another way: Give Marxism an inch and it takes a mile.
Just like Covidism: it was given an inch and it took a mile. In only eighteen months America advanced, incrementally, from Flatten the Curve® and lockdowns to mandatory vaccinations: All because of a virus that mostly endangers the elderly and those with serious health concerns.
From an economic standpoint, Covidism, like socialism, has allowed for some capitalism over the last year and a half: a centralized form of capitalism, to be sure, as some workers and businesses were defined as “essential” and others deemed more equal were financially subsidized by the state.
