MUST VIEW - CBC 9/11 Conspiracy Documentary Online NOW! |
|
http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article5103.htmThe stuff (last 3/4) about Bush, Bin Laden and the Saudi's is incredible. BTW - The CBC is the Canadian Broadcast Corporation, the nation wide network funded in part by the Canadian Government.

5. Just so you know...CBC is completely free of gov't influence....they have |
|
even been responsible for government ministers having to resign in the past, due to their investigative journalism....They are free to say and do what they wish....I'm writing this because someone posted on here a few days ago that CBC was the state controlled Canadian media....which is absolutely wrong...It was funded originally to be able to reach all corners of this huge country when we had a much smaller population and the private broadcasters didn't want to put the money into reaching out to small communities....:)

Point taken. Perhaps I should clairify - just mentioned that in passing, because someone on an earlier thread about this subject wanted to know if the CBC was a 'legitimate' channel. Being a 'national' network would certainly as a barometer of its credibility, and size. The CBC has certainly stirred up a lot of official hornet's nests on the past.

:hi: I didn't mean this as casting any aspersions against you...It was, as I said, because of what the other guy (won't mention who he is)posted.

9. This report puts 9/11 blame on Saudis |
|
and suggests that the Bush family's close ties to the Saudi royals and the Bin Ladens hampered terrorism investigations that could have exposed the 9/11 plot. The report doesn't suggest that Bush knew of 9/11 in advance, only that he (his family) just didn't want their Saudi partners to be scrutinized too closely so as not to offend them and jeopardize Saudi willingness to cooperate with and invest in the US.
The report also suggests that the Saudis continued to fund Osama even after it was clear the he was behind a string of terror attacks in the late 90's and 2000. This they did as a way to keep Osama from turning on them.
So the Saudis were paying protection and they knew what their money was being used for. The Bushes didn't want too much heat on the Saudis so the 9/11 plot went undetected. The Saudis don't want us to know they were indirectly complicit and the Bushes don't want us to know the attacks could have been prevented.
That's my take on the CBC report. Not that I agree with it. I still believe Bush knew what was coming and decided it would be good for his agenda to let them happen.

12. Its damning either way |
|
Personally, I believe the LIHOP scenario. The facts just seem to point in that direction. BUT, in terms of getting the message out, I think the scenario the video lays out (that you summarized) is the better message. It doesn't sound like a whacko conspiracy theory, so people will be much more likely to believe it, IMO. And it still places blame for 9/11 on Bush's shoulders, even if indirectly so.

11. I was lucky enough to watch this. |

It's eye openning to see REAL journalism on Television. The 5th Estate is an excellent program with an impeccable reputation.
The information on their report should be part of the discourse in the US mainstream media. Why it isn't is very telling. Can you imagine, if Bill Clinton had a business that was bailed out by the Bin Lauden family? Would the "liberal" media be silent?
Our media (with a few exceptions) is busy covering Lacy Peterson and Kobe Bryant and other diversion stories. It's embarrassing! I wonder how these people can look at themselves in the mirror.

It's encouraging that slowly more and more investigative reporters are feeling that something is amiss with the Bush Cabal's official story.
There is still some small hope yet.

17. Video isn't working now |
|
The .rm file seems to be gone.
Is this the version that folks here were trying to upload last night, or did some DUers post another copy of this video somewhere else as well?

That plus the Iraqi antiquities doc that was aired right before it. (They didn't mention the high-level meeting between the antiques dealers and Bush's people re: making it easier to import antiquities, though, which would have been the icing on the cake.)
If people want to see it and can't get Newsworld or can't make the links work ... I'm willing to ship to the States, provided they pass it along to other DUers. (Someone else in town is borrowing it this weekend though.)
PM me if interested.
