Where now on 911?



Here's another short clip about the enduring mysteries surrounding the events of 911.

Clearly America's new government will be able to do a lot to keep the executive ape in check, but with a lot of the new democrats swinging towards the right an emphasis is being placed on partisan co-operation. They have already compromised by agreeing not to pursue any impeachment proceedings against the would-be emporer himself (not that this is going to stop the various campaigns), so any kind of renewed oversight investigations into the events of 911 seem somewhat unlikely too.

No doubt the history books will one day reveal all, but suspicions of a "false flag" operation are bound to persist in the interim. It will be a shame if a re-focused American government, however the laudible their attempts to find solutions and new strategies for the problems we now face, choose to do so without addressing the truths of recent history wherein causes and possible crimes relating to those same problems seem to lie. A change in the fortunes and reputation of America will take some time - a policy of wiping out corruption and other crimes needs to come fast and a commitment to honesty and full investigation of the failed neo-con agenda would go a long way to repairing the damge sooner rather than later.

Transparency of governence and a less self-centred, less arrogant approach to the rest of the world, would also help counter the rising tide of both anti-American and anti-Western movements. A willingness to deal with Iran and Syria, instead of dictating to them, will be a fine start. Longer term though, the change must be a philosophical one and transcends the current imperative to simply clean up the mess they've made.

Later.
