9/11 Truth and Anti-War Thought in the Vatican

Turns out, there are some more hip and interesting things goin' on in the Vatican than the shameless propagandists of our corporate "news" media will ever let us know!

<clip>After the war against Iraq and the propositions of "an endless, quick war" expressed by the instigators of that war, it is no longer possible to close our eyes and hope that the monster will go away. As was well-illustrated by Francisco Goya, the opposite is true: the sleep of reason produces monsters, or, giving in to fear produces monsters. If there is no change in international dynamics, this parade of monsters will represent only the beginning of what is already being called – see the statements by former head of the CIA R. James Woolsey – the Fourth World War (considering the Cold War as the Third).

<clip>It is impossible to overestimate the importance of this subjective problem and of the connected problem of individual fear. This is the starting point to re-emerge form the inferno that the world – and Italy – is falling into very, very rapidly. Any strategic or tactical consideration must start from there: from the will to confront the wave of irrational fear.

<clip>The first step towards emerging from the abyss, and neutralizing the effects of psychological warfare, is to tell the truth. For the pragmatic politician that lives day by day, this could seem trivial. For him, the truth is merchandise which is to be used sparingly and only in the form of dossiers or "warnings". For a historic leader that intends to defuse the strategic time bomb that was activated on September 11, 2001, the truth is the only realistic means by which to mobilize the precious resource on which a credible counterattack depends: the minds of the population. The truth is the unique basis from which to free citizens from the cloud of confusion and fear that prevents them from thinking and reacting.

<clip>For example: it is clear that the events of September 11th were the starting point of a semi-original coup d’etat in the United States. With the pretext of September 11th and the succeeding intimidation of the American Congress using anthrax, the American people were forced to swallow a monstrous politics of wars "without end" as foreign policy, and police state measures as domestic policy. But this can only be whispered.

<clip>The theory that Osama Bin Laden could be capable of organizing and carrying out, without complicity at the highest level, the events of September 11th from his Afghani cave is a macabre joke to anyone having professional competence in this field. In fact, no serious inquiry has been permitted up until now, even after two wars have been launched (with many others in the planning stages) on the basis of this theory which has never proven

<clip>On 27th February 1933, the Reichstag, the building of the German Parliament in Berlin, was destroyed by an act of arson...,
The march towards Nazism had begun.

Actually, I'm more of Taoist/Zen/Tantric/New Age guy in my own spirituality, so I'm noticably different from the Pope. But like some of the most intelligent people in the Vatican, my spirituality did help me face the terrible truth about the Bush Administration's real complicity in 9/11, when most others around me were far to fearful and in the thrall of U.S. corporate "news" propaganda to do so. Sure, knowing some Science can help you realize that what we were told about 9/11 was one big propaganda lie. But it won't REALLY help you unless you have the fundamental spiritual courage to face truth and reject propaganda manipulation. I live in a college town with a large school of engineering, but shortly after 9/11 I found how very few of these people were brave enough to get into any authentic discussion about what had really happened. Fear had frozen their reasoning.

I'm happy to find now that some intelligent people in the Vatican had this figured out all along, and no doubt it helped the Pope maintain his inspiring position against the Bush Administration's invasion of Iraq.
