Libertarians should not shy away from the truth about 9/11

911 / World Trade Center
Discussing
foreign policy at Case Western University during the 2000 presidential
campaign, I said, “It is not a question of if
America would suffer a major terrorist attack because of our intervention in
foreign affairs, but when we would be hit.” So when I first heard the
slogan after 9/11 “they hate us for our freedom” it sounded absurd. To
many Libertarians, Harry Browne and myself included, “they” hated us for our
aggressive interventionist foreign policy.
But if “they” did hate us for
our freedom, it seems that “they” have been successful in taking it away. Every
time we go through a TSA checkpoint, we are reminded that this country is less
free today than it was eleven years ago.
Government can now conduct secret searches and wiretaps in our homes
without showing “probable cause,” and we can be jailed indefinitely without a
formal charge and without the right to confront the witnesses or evidence
against us. And it seems that “they” have gotten us into endless wars.
How were “they” able to take
away our freedoms? Before that question is answered, we need to know who “they”
are. Since explosions were going off in World Trade Center Building 7 before
the Twin Towers came down, “they” had to have had access to the building which
housed the IRS, the Secret Service, the CIA, the Securities and Exchange
Commission and the New York Office of Emergency Management to place the
explosives.
Surely
Muslim terrorists did not have access to place the explosives in such a
sensitive building, nor are they enforcing the USA Patriot Act. “They” had to
have had permission to enter the building from the government agencies that are
suppose to protect us.
It
has been over a decade since the 9/11 attacks; it is time to overcome the
conflicting emotions that were stirred up on that tragic day and realize that
it was not some guy in a far-away cave that crashed those airplanes and blew up
those buildings.
The
evidence that people in high levels of the Federal government planned, executed
and are continuing to cover-up the 9/11 attacks is overwhelming. There are
eyewitnesses, whistleblowers, pictures, videos and scientific evidence. The
only thing missing, and this is what many people have had a hard time
accepting, is media coverage of the evidence. For me, it was not that difficult
to understand how the corrupt the media can be as I witnessed it first hand
when I was the mayor. The local papers would routinely put out misleading
hit-pieces on me to benefit my corrupt political opponents and would not report
on their crooked deals.
This
is not the first time in American history that the American people were tricked
into going to war. Emotions were stirred before WWI when the Germans sunk a
passenger ocean liner and again before WWII by a sneak attack by the Japanese.
It took generations for the proof to be uncovered. In 2008, divers found out that
the Lusitania’s hull was packed full of ammunition in route to England. In 1995, the Eight Action Memo to get the
Japanese to bomb Pearl Harbor was discovered. Fortunately, we do not have to
wait generations to find out the truth about 9/11.
Some
people that have watched the destruction of the 47-story Building 7 surmise
that they do not have the technical knowledge to determine whether or not a
modern skyscraper can collapse into its own footprint at freefall speed because
of an office fire. For them, I suggest that they look at the crash site of
Flight 93 in Shanksville, PA.
Local
reporters walked the crash site on 9/11 and reported, “there was nothing,
nothing that you could distinguish that a plane had crashed there.” The
official story is that a Boeing 757 buried most of itself under the ground, not
even disturbing some on the weeds above it, while other parts bounced up and
landed miles away, leaving no debris on the surface of the crash site.
Don’t
take my word for it, or anyone’s word; there is so much misinformation
regarding 9/11, look at the evidence yourself. If you see a 47-story building
destroyed by fire and you see a 757 in that field in Shanksville, clearly I am
mistaken. But if you see a controlled demolition and an empty field, it is
incumbent of you and every Libertarian to research the facts and to tell the
truth to others of what you know about what did and did not happen on September
11, 2001.
There
are some members of the party that argue that we will be subject to ridicule
from those that are committed to the government’s story about 9/11. Our
founding fathers pledged their lives to give us this republic; we should be
able to withstand some name-calling to keep it. The LP cannot effectively
oppose the wars and our loss of liberty and at the same time ignore the
catalyst for those actions.
There
are millions of Americans that know 9/11 was an inside job. They clearly
understand that big government does not benefit the governed. Many of these
people are politically active and would naturally be attracted to the
Libertarian Party if we spoke the truth about 9/11.
Libertarians
should never shy away from the truth. A political party without principal is just
another tool of the Establishment.
 Former
Libertarian Vice-Presidential Candidate, Art Olivier has turned
filmmaker. Not straying far from his political roots, which also
include a California governor run and a stint as Mayor of Bellflower,
Art’s first feature film is a political thriller. OPERATION TERROR,
the 9/11 story you are not supposed to know, was both written and
produced by Mr. Olivier. For director, Art chose an award-winning
political documentary filmmaker who’s credits include FOLLOW THE LEADER
starring then President George W. Bush and other notable republicans.
Art’s freshman film has already garnered one award, inclusions in 4
prestigious film festivals, and a glowing review by the legendary G.
Edward Griffin of “Creature from Jekyll Island” fame! Griffin noted:
““Operation Terror is a top quality drama that is both entertaining and
disturbing. It tells the story of what many believe really happened on
9/11. Perhaps we will never know if this fictional scenario is true, but
it answers far more questions than the official version of that event,
and it has the aura of truth about it.”
Operation Terror was released September 11th, 2012 (click here to purchase DVD or download).
Art Olivier was the Mayor of Bellflower, CA from 1998-99. In 2000, he was the Libertarian VP Candidate and in 2006, he was the Libertarian Candidate for Governor of California. He is the Writer/Producer of Operation Terror
