In his event at the University of Washington, Mike Ruppert casually dismisses
- as "no longer of any value" - the whole of the argument for prosecuting those
responsible for nine-eleven. The events of that day in 2001 were the key to this
administrations declaration for global war upon the world; a continuing war in
the name of an agenda that only the vile can claim. Hundreds of thousands, if
not millions of people have already died around this planet because of the
events that day. This happened because those attacks provided the license needed
to overturn our way of life and this government: This was seen by those who
created that attack, as the one clear path they needed to begin their all out
attacks upon anyone that disagrees with their agenda, regardless of nationality.
Therefore, to dismiss the facts of nine-eleven is to deny those realities
which that event set in motion, and that created the possibility for their plans
- plans that still seek to steal not only lives, but the dreams and hopes of
billions of people around the world.
Anyone who has ever faced death, personally, knows the value of resistance
and the crucial nature of even tenths of a second, when it counts. It would
appear that Mike has no knowledge of that kind of contest. Those who advocate
capitulation in the face of intimidation do not have the character or the spine
to lead anyone anywhere - and in his latest unveiling at the University of
Washington, it seems he unveiled something he may not have intended.
For a man of his reputation to adopt the stance that Mike took in that
presentation, leaves open the possibility, that he may be unwittingly doing the
bandit's bidding for them. When anyone opts for money over principle, for
personal opportunity over innovation, or seems to - then this can call into
question much more than just the issues at hand. Mike above most others, should
know that there are many other ways to fight this criminal enterprise, aside
from the courts of this land, which the bandits obviously now own.
To forego "other options," because legal maneuvers at the moment
have been blocked, is to be more than shortsighted, it can be seen as cowardly.
The enormity of the crimes committed on nine-eleven, and the arrogance of the
public theft that resulted in the murder of so many innocent people, must not,
cannot be forgotten or abandoned. Above all - given the conflicted and growing
anger of the public, it is not up to any individual writer to call for others to
just "forget it." But then it is always much more difficult to "find a
way" through the neo-con world, than it is just follow the simple-minded
rulebooks. Apparently some people are still unaware that rules were often made
to be broken?
Those we are fighting against have no rules whatever - but this does not
allow us the same latitude. What naturally constrains the rest of us - is common
decency and a real respect for continuing life and the facts at issue in any
event.
To many, the appeal in Mike's remarks of January 15, appears to be "just
get on with your orderly life" (or Mike's version of the Bush phrase:
"Just Go shopping"). This position borders on journalistic
capitulation, because it can be self-serving, and could be seen as an extension
of the way he began: which was by charging people for what he had to say. Either
a contributing writer contributes to the global dialogue or he charges for his
thoughts: Ruppert has apparently chosen the money trail, which potentially makes
his words and thoughts vulnerable to suspicion. From the start - his
"compact" with his readers has been one of a conditional trust - one
based on who can pay and who cannot.
There are always options - because there are always choices. Those
wordslingers who work in the thought-mines of activism know this for the fact
that it is. Whenever a writer becomes consumed in the bogs of those political
tar babies that are abundant now - then he or she can sometimes appear to have
capitulated rather than to have chosen to fight.
Mike is advocating "the healing
process." As it stands he is advocating
sewing up the patient with the spent lead still inside the body politic of the
patient. The world has been critically wounded by the attack upon us all, that
911 actually was. We cannot simply pretend that this did not happen, so we
cannot "just go on with our lives." If actual "healing" is what is
sought then let us examine the attack, and trace the evidence back to those who
committed this crime against humanity - then we can sew up this almost terminal
patient - and begin to live again.
Just because previous political crimes and or assassinations remain unsolved,
does not mean that 911 must follow in those footprints. This was an outlandishly
bold crime, and the evidence of that fact is everywhere - what seems lacking
here is the courage and the creativity of those investigating to bring
sufficient information to the public in a clear and comprehensive way.
Prosecutor's love having overwhelming evidence, but in this case the truth must
find it's own way to get into the light - and that can't happen if we just put
this on the shelf - and then pretend it did not happen.
Those who live in the trenches of this war, those who continue to speak, to
write, to film or to draw, will be those who continue to challenge these
bastards; even if that has to be done from afar. But to advocate surrender to
the comfort and convenience of " just going along - to get along" is not only
counter-productive to confronting this problem, but - it is a certain path to
confinement, to surrender or to death. In his address today Bush speaks about
"Freedom" a lot, but he forgets that the majority of the world is
seeking to be free from him and from the influence of the USA. Nine-eleven gave
Bush this secret language to use, to "free the peoples of the planet"
from their prisons, and to put them into ours.
People, whether here or abroad are nothing to these puppet-masters, except
fuel for their purposes. The public is to be used up, whether as cannon fodder,
as corporate slaves, or as useful idiots who sometimes chose to "cave"
rather than to challenge the rules. That is a choice that every one of us must
make - yet in no instance - will anyone be served by the policies that are now
about to be unleashed by those who have plotted and planned this nightmare for
over four decades. To "cave" is to choose to live one's life in chains
and "on your knees," whereas to choose life will cost all who make
that choice - dearly.
The KEY to all of the above then - is and has been - the events of
nine-eleven, without
which none of this could have happened. Consider the massive disfigurement,
the brutal and often senseless death, the wanton destruction of cultures, of
places, and of human life. This is being done to people worldwide in our names,
and with our money. To simply walk away from the sole initiating event because
it's becoming problematic cannot be part of any workable solution.
To even consider dumping the arrogance of those initial attacks (by this
government on their own people) as "no longer a useful tool in political
activism," goes far beyond the pale. This would seem to be out-of-line for
anyone with a stake such as Mike has in this continuing and still unfinished
resistance to fascist domination. Perhaps Ruppert will do a follow-up to this
latest "appearance" - and perhaps he may choose to clarify his
position for those of us who care more about the resolution of this crime, than
whether or not it's outcome is "comfortable."
