   Washington Times Covers 9/11 Controversy by The Daily Bell - March 1st,   
   2010   
   A lingering technical question about the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks   
   still haunts some, and it has political implications: How did 200,000   
   tons of steel disintegrate and drop in 11 seconds? A thousand architects   
   and engineers want to know, and are calling on Congress to order a new   
   investigation into the destruction of the Twin Towers and Building 7 at   
   the World Trade Center. "In order to bring down this kind of mass in   
   such a short period of time, the material must have been artificially,   
   exploded outwards," says Richard Gage, a San Francisco architect and   
   founder of the nonprofit Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth. Mr.   
   Gage, who is a member of the American Institute of Architects, managed   
   to persuade more than 1,000 of his peers to sign a new petition   
   requesting a formal inquiry. "The official Federal Emergency Management   
   [Agency] and National Institute of Standards and Technology reports   
   provide insufficient, contradictory and fraudulent accounts of the   
   circumstances of the towers' destruction. We are therefore calling for a   
   grand jury investigation of NIST officials," Mr. Gage adds. -Washington   
   Times   
   Dominant Social Theme: Something we, the mainstream media, need to   
   mention at least in passing …   
   Free-Market Analysis: We have no idea what happened on 9/11. But since   
   9/11 Commission members have reportedly disavowed the full government's   
   story - and one has written a book claiming the commission was serially   
   lied to by the Bush administration, the FBI, CIA, etc. - we have to   
   conclude that there are elements of the official story that are not   
   entirely accurate. We would think that the US government would want to   
   get to the bottom of such a serious matter, in some way or other.   
   Now the Washington Times, a mainstream, beltway newspaper, is seemingly   
   opening up the issue again. There was no need to cover yet another   
   "trufers" story and yet the Times has done so - to the astonishment of   
   the alternative blogosphere. We think, not to make a pun, that this is   
   in fact a sign of the times. The pressure to understand what really   
   happened on 9/11 simply won't go away. It is all over the 'Net and is in   
   fact gaining momentum in our opinion.   
   After the Kennedy assassination there were many questions - and one   
   grainy "Zapruder" film played over and over for decades. But the Warren   
   Commission never disavowed its conclusion, that Kennedy was killed by a   
   lone gunman and a bullet that travelled in all directions at once. The   
   9/11 Commission (some of its members anyway) has.   
   Because of the Internet, there are literally millions of pictures and   
   comments about the tragic attack. This is a matter of degrees, to be   
   sure, but degrees matter. The impact of so much commentary - and   
   conflicting information - seen by so many, gradually builds up. It   
   becomes a force that cannot be traduced. The circumstances surrounding   
   9/11 are then qualitatively different than those around Kennedy's death.   
   We have, for instance, thought long and hard why law professor and   
   Rutger's Dean John Farmer would want to come out with a book that   
   basically accused the entire Washington establishment of lying about   
   9/11. It only occurred to us lately that Dean Farmer was WORRIED. The   
   9/11 Commission's conclusions are flawed. Farmer, perhaps sanguine at   
   one point about his role, realized one day that he was right in the   
   middle of what would appear to be a cover-up. So he set out to rectify   
   his situation. Now he cannot be accused. He points his seasoned finger   
   elsewhere.   
   There is a rude term that describes what Farmer has done. The point is,   
   when your top people begin pointing fingers, the cover-up, whatever it   
   is, is unraveling. Again, we don't know what people in Washington were -   
   or are - up to. Farmer seems to think it was incompetence of a sort, and   
   subsequent denial. But perhaps it goes deeper than that.   
   But, no, we don't know. And before we receive any feedbacks blasting us   
   for accusing the government of organizing or orchestrating 9/11, we will   
   state for the record that that is not our intention, nor our purpose. We   
   have not a single clue about what actually occurred on 9/11! Nor is it   
   our responsibility - even within the ambit of the alternative press - to   
   "investigate." You try to investigate the CIA, Pentagon and FBI, dear   
   reader. There are, to be sure, sensitivities there that are fairly   
   beyond imagining. Here's an article excerpt about Farmer's book that   
   appeared in the Salem-News:   
   The 9/11 Commission Rejects own Report as Based on Government Lies …   
   In John Farmer's book: "The Ground Truth: The Story Behind America's   
   Defense on 9/11?, the author builds the inescapably convincing case that   
   the official version… is almost entirely untrue … The 9/11   
   Commission now tells us that the official version of 9/11 was based on   
   false testimony and documents and is almost entirely untrue. The details   
   of this massive cover-up are carefully outlined in a book by John   
   Farmer, who was the Senior Counsel for the 9/11 Commission. Farmer, Dean   
   of Rutger Universities' School of Law and former Attorney General of New   
   Jersey, was responsible for drafting the original flawed 9/11 report.   
   … Farmer states…"at some level of the government, at some point in   
   time…there was an agreement not to tell the truth about what   
   happened… I was shocked at how different the truth was from the way it   
   was described. … The [Norad air defense] tapes told a radically   
   different story from what had been told to us and the public for two   
   years. This is not spin." … In 2006, The Washington Post   
   reported…"Suspicion of wrongdoing ran so deep that the 10- member   
   commission, in a secret meeting at the end of its tenure in summer 2004,   
   debated referring the matter to the Justice Department for criminal   
   investigation, according to several commission sources. Staff members   
   and some commissioners thought that e-mails and other evidence provided   
   enough probable cause to believe that military and aviation officials   
   violated the law by making false statements to Congress and to the   
   commission…"   
   9/11 has been the proximate cause for two major US wars. The Middle East   
   is in flames and the conflagration may get worse before it gets better,   
   with major implications for the entire world. Given what has occurred -   
   and the nature of the stakes - doesn't it make sense to get a fuller and   
   more accurate accounting of what REALLY took place on 9/11? Doesn't the   
   US government owe it to the voters? Wouldn't any representative   
   government want to give its citizens an honest accounting? There are so   
   many questions beyond the fate of the buildings themselves. Perhaps
