David Griffin's New Book Exposes a 'New Leviathan'

by Len Hart, The Existentialist Cowboy

There is probable cause to indict and charge top government officials, George W. Bush himself, for the capital crimes we call '911', specifically the crimes of mass murder, high treason, or the war crimes 'justified' upon the pretext of a great 'war on terrorism'. [see: US Codes, Title 18, Section 2441] or high treason!

(a) Offense.— Whoever, whether inside or outside the United States, commits a war crime, in any of the circumstances described in subsection (b), shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for life or any term of years, or both, and if death results to the victim, shall also be subject to the penalty of death.

--US Codes, TITLE 18 > PART I > CHAPTER 118 > § 2441. War crimes

Now --Prof Griffin may or may not share my conviction with regard to the probable cause to indict high level members of Bush's administration, his new book most certainly strikes deep into a conspiracy to defraud the American people even as it waged treasonous war against it.

Therefore, we should not be surprised that the government of the United States is 'pimped out' to huge multi-national corporations and foreign nations (Israel?) who take a proprietary interest in it. Why would they not? They own it; they own us; they own you, having bought the US and with it the awesome power of the Military/Industrial Complex. While the Praetorian Guard auctioned off the Roman Empire to one Didius Julianus, the United States has since perfected, 'improved' upon Julianus' one-time sale. The US government is an on-going auction in which the US is routinely 'pimped' on 'K-street, sold to the highest bidders the services of Congress, the White House and even the US Supreme Court.

'K-Street' should have red lights

This is the essential 'deep background' that one must understand if one is to understand the crime of '911' in which the government of the United States, having sold out the people to special interests and foreign entities like the Jewish Lobby, may have exploited the manpower and equipment necessary to stage a phony terrorist attack by which it would later justify the attack and invasion of a sovereign nation for its oil and its strategic position in the middle east!

Hitler required, doubtless planned and pulled off the Reichstag Fire [See: The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, William Shirer]; Bushco would exploit a 'catalyzing event' which the radical Project for the New American Century compared to Pearl Harbor. [See Rebuilding America's Defenses; toward the end of this PDF document you will find a picture of the US Global Hawk which, I believe was 'the missile', as Rumsfeld called it, that hit the Pentagon --'this building' as Rumsfeld called it!]

Only the terminally disingenuous dare feign shock or surprise upon learning that the crime of 911 was the work of the US government, specifically the CIA in cahoots with Mossad. The Jewish lobby is among the well-heeled patrons of K-Street!

The prostitution of the US government is documented and against that background. For thousands of years, every government has found it necessary to raise the specter of a 'foreign threat' in order to repeal a people's ancient liberties, rights, and even its property. At least since the fall of Rome, governments have sold themselves out and/or operated elaborate 'protection rackets'. Presaging the many ways in which the US government has betrayed the American people, The Praetorian Guard auctioned off the Roman Empire to a nobleman. That Didius Julianus did not long survive his treachery is either tragic or deserved depending upon your view of history and the depths of depravity associated with the Roman ruling classes. The same is written about America now!

In Iraq, the Bush regime would act on behalf of the huge oil companies to whom the Bush family had owed its livelihood for several generations. The result: a 'shocking' terrorist attack on US soil, the pretext Bush needed to attack, invade and steal the petroleum resources of another nation. It did not matter that the target nation had been an ally of the US and posed no 'imminent threat' to the US. The eventual attack and invasion of this nation is a war crime punishable by death.

The Leviathan Re-visited

We are too often overwhelmed by the Leviathan that oppresses us and threatens the world. We have on our side the most powerful weapon of them all: truth. 'They' have only lies. The truth explains everything. Lies explain nothing. Lies betray those who tell them, those who live by them, those who depend upon them for their very livelihood. It is the lies told about 911 which have betrayed the perpetrators. 911 was covered up with a most pernicious lie: the destruction of evidence.

The absence of evidence is not probable cause to indict George W. Bush or any member of his administration. However, when the criminals who pulled off 911 are brought to jail, you can be sure that a skilled prosecutor may ask a jury: what motivates a man to cover up the crimes of mass murder and treason if not guilt? What motivation has an innocent man to order the destruction of evidence if it might clear him of all charges? Certainly --no rational man would order the destruction of evidence that would clear him of all charges leveled against him.

There are those who believe that Bush, Cheney and a gang of NEOCON crooks representing the new ruling Leviathan of just one percent of the US population conspired to attack and invade Iraq for its oil! If Bushco were innocent, would it have destroyed the evidence that would clear them? It will not help the defense that surviving documents prove that Dick Cheney's 'Energy Task Force' literally carved up the oil fields of Iraq before Bush would have the pretext he needed to attack, invade, and loot oil!

Earlier this year a BBC Newsnight report claimed to have uncovered documents showing the Bush administration made plans to secure Iraqi oil even before the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the US. Based on its analysis of PSAs in seven countries, it said multinationals would seek rates of return on their investment from 42 to 162 per cent, far in excess of typical 12 per cent rates.

As Hitler needed a Reichstag Fire, Bushco needed a pretext --a 'catalyzing event' that the Project for the New American Century would compare to Pearl Harbor. [See Rebuilding America's Defenses; toward the end of this PDF document you will find a picture of the US Global Hawk which, I believe was 'the missile', as Rumsfeld called it, that hit 'this building' as Rumsfeld referred to the Pentagon!]

It is telling that this document, prepared as it was by a cadre of 'neoconservatives', had designs upon a Clinton surplus though it is 'conservatives' who are always most vocal with regard to 'big spending liberals'.

New circumstances make us think that the report might have a more receptive audience now than in recent years. For the first time since the late 1960s the federal government is running a surplus. For most of the 1990s, Congress and the White House gave balancing the federal budget a higher priority than funding national security. In fact, to a significant degree, the budget was balanced by a combination of increased tax revenues and cuts in defense spending. The surplus expected in federal revenues over the next decade, however, removes any need to hold defense spending to some preconceived low level.

--PNAC, Rebuilding America's Defenses

This paragraph is revealing for its sheer hypocrisy. It was Ronald Reagan who doubled the federal bureaucracy and tripled the national debt though he cut taxes but ONLY for the upper quintile if not the mere one percent who, in fact, have benefited from GOP policies in the regimes of Reagan, Bush Sr., and Bush Jr. , Because of inequitable tax cuts for an increasingly tiny, ruling elite, Ronald Reagan presided over a depression of some two years, the deepest and longest since Herbert Hoover's 'Great Depression'.

It was Ronald Reagan who dismissed the complaints of the poor that were left behind during his dreary years. Mentally ill, he called them. Reagan lied about a Cadillac driving 'welfare queen' in Detroit (as I recall). There was no such person. Ronald Reagan lied. Clearly --the GOP is more interested in waging wars for Israel than it is in representing responsibly the needs of US citizens, Americans who were deceived throughout the Twentieth Century.

As the work of Professor David Ray Griffin over the greater part of a decade has proven: 911 may be the most evil deception yet issuing from the whorehouses on K-Street and Pennsylvania Avenue. The most obvious fraud --the collapse of WTC 7 not even struck by aircraft of any sort --is Griffin's most recent salvo. His book is a both a history and the utter refutation of a series of interim NIST studies. Under Griffin's bright light, the NIST assertion that WTC7 was the first steel-frame building in history to be structurally demolished by fire alone is utterly collapsed.

It was at 5:20 PM, September 11th, that WTC 7, a skyscraper of some 40 stories, suddenly collapsed. Building 7 had not been struck by aircraft of any sort! Nevertheless, a BBC correspondent reported that it had collapsed some 15 or 20 minutes before the event! How would she have known so much detail in advance of an unexpected event? How does a reporter report an event before it happens unless the event is planned? And by whom was it planned?

Tales Told by 'Symmetricality'

The collapse of WTC is memorable for its 'text book' symmetry, its near seamless fall into its own footprint hours after the larger building had already collapsed.

Amazing, incredible, pick your word. For the third time today --it's reminiscent of those pictures we've all seen too much on television before, where a building was deliberately destroyed by well-placed dynamite to knock it down.

--Dan Rather, CBS News

Rather's comments were supported by photographs and video depicting horizontal squibs and windows blowing out as the collapse began. It was this appearance of a 'controlled demolition' at WTC 7 that inspired my own doubts about the official theories. Even if what had been said about airliners striking the 'twins' had been true, none of that was relevant at WTC 7. It became clear to me that officialdom would need a new theory --and fast! Subsequently, officialdom still has not come up with a credible explanation that connects WTC with the fall of the twins that does not implicate very 'important' people.

Offialdom, eventually represented by the NIST, was stuck, having committed to a 'fire theory'.

Some of the evidence ignored by NIST is physical evidence that explosives were used to bring down WTC 7. Swiss-Cheese Steel: I will begin with the piece of steel from WTC 7 that had been melted so severely that it looked like Swiss cheese. Explaining why it called this “the deepest mystery uncovered in the investigation,” James Glanz wrote: “The steel apparently melted away, but no fire in any of the buildings was believed to be hot enough to melt steel outright.” [15] Glanz’s statement was, in fact, quite an understatement. The full truth is that the fires in the building could not have brought the steel anywhere close to the temperature – about 1,482°C (2,700°F) – needed for it to melt. [16]

The professors who reported this piece of steel in the appendix to the FEMA report said: “A detailed study into the mechanisms [that caused] this phenomenon is needed.”[17] Arden Bement, who was the director of NIST when it took on the WTC project, said that NIST’s report would address “all major recommendations contained in the [FEMA] report.” [18]

But when NIST issued its report on WTC 7, it did not mention this piece of steel with the Swiss-cheese appearance. Indeed, NIST even claimed that not a single piece of steel from WTC 7 had been recovered. [19]

This piece of steel, moreover, was only a small portion of the evidence, ignored by NIST, that steel had melted.

--Prof. David Ray Griffin, Why NIST’s Final 9/11 Report is Unscientific and False

Thus, from the outset, the NIST was compromised! Commiting to a 'theory' a priori is not how science is done. Scientific conclusions are, by definition, a posteriori, resulting only from empirical evidence and/or verified fact. For about seven years, NIST gnomes tried to shoe-horn facts into a pre-conceived lie. They sweat blood over computer simulations in search of the Holy Grail of officialdom: a fire theory that would explain the utter collapses of three monumental buildings. The NIST, having already committed, could not afford the luxury of a dispassionate inquiry, a scientific approach. Because it had to, the NIST would settle for smoke and mirrors to which the Wizard of Oz could only aspire. The NIST tried to re-write science to please Bush and a gang of guilty mass murderers, traitors, liars and usurpers.

It is much easier now to write a single sentence that is completely consistent with Occam's Razor: 'WTC 7 looks like a controlled demolition because it was a controlled demolition'. It is my hope that the truth of that statement will result in bringing the truly guilty to justice as it liberates a nation that was lost on 911! On the other hand, it is my fear that the only lesson culprits will have learned is that next time, they will rig a much less symmetrical treason, a less 'tidy'' mass murder!

RNC Tied To Website That Promoted Military Coup Against Obama

September 30, 2009 4:25 pm ET by Matt Finkelstein

Yesterday, Newsmax columnist John L. Perry brought up the possibility of a military coup against President Obama. Most chilling, perhaps, was the fact that Perry seemed to offer tepid support for the idea. "A coup is not an ideal option," he acknowledged, "but Obama's radical ideal is not acceptable or reversible."

There is a remote, although gaining, possibility America's military will intervene as a last resort to resolve the "Obama problem." Don't dismiss it as unrealistic. [...]

Military intervention is what Obama's exponentially accelerating agenda for "fundamental change" toward a Marxist state is inviting upon America. A coup is not an ideal option, but Obama's radical ideal is not acceptable or reversible.

Unthinkable? Then think up an alternative, non-violent solution to the Obama problem. Just don't shrug and say, "We can always worry about that later."

Newsmax eventually unpublished the column, but only after receiving several reader complaints. Additionally, a spokeswoman for Newsmax tried to downplay the website's relationship with Perry.

But more significant than a radical opinion piece is the fact that the Republican National Committee appears to provide financial support to the website that published it. Indeed, the RNC has recently borrowed Newsmax's email list (presumably for a fee) so Michael Steele could fear-monger about the Democrats' "desire for socialist control over our lives."
