Listen to the audience response at approx the 44 sec mark when Kucinich asks the audience if they believe they have not been given the full 911 story.

Congressman Kucinich also assures the audience there will be Congressional hearings into some financial issues related to 911.

:wow:

I've just ordered David Ray Griffin's new book Debunking 9-11 Debunkers (along with Jacob Hacker's The Great Risk Shift, but that's another scam perpetrated by right wingnuts)

--caucussing for Kucinich will push the Dems further in the direction you want them to go. Switch to Edwards in Denver.

Edwards to win and Kucinich to keep the frontrunners honest (or at least relatively more honest, slightly, sort of, or at least make them have an uncomfortable feeling for a fleeting moment that could be an urge to be honest).

DON'T HAVE HIGH SPEED

Great post!

Bravo Mr. Kucinich! And by the way don't fly. :shrug:

buy because they investigated it and the Bushies knew who did it so it couldn't possibly be nefarious.

which came from the head of Pakistan's ISI, Lt. Gen. Mahmoud Ahmed, who just so happened to also be in the United States from September 4, 2001 and was having breakfast on the morning of 9/11 with Porter Goss and Senator Bob Graham. Then two days later he was meeting with top officials from the State Department.

Porter Goss was later appointed as the head of the CIA.
This was a man that wired money DIRECTLY to a 9/11 hijacker, having breakfast with our future CIA head. :wtf:

Lots of strings for Kucinich to pull there!

See how easy it is to unravel them 9/11 conspearcies?

was headed by a former CIA head?

:woohoo:

"A top-level CIA operative who spoke with us on condition of strictest anonymity said that, after Bush took office, “There was a major policy shift” at the National Security Agency. Investigators were ordered to “back off ” from any inquiries into Saudi Arabian financing of terror networks, especially if they touched on Saudi royals and their retainers. That put the Bin Ladens, a family worth a reported $12 billion and a virtual arm of the Saudi royal household, off limits for investigation. Osama was the exception; he remained a wanted man, but agents could not look too closely at how he filled his piggy bank. The key rule of any investigation, “follow the money,” was now violated, and investigations-at least before September 11-began to die."

a real investigation

light of day this administration would be gone....overnite! Bush would fear for his life if the truth were to come out and I hope it does......forget all the other nefarious events * has put upon us....this one, 9/11, would do it. imho

A beautifully framed partisan question and stupid dropped the ball. All he heard was "They know youse dun it." and panicked.

his color drained out, and he couldn't pull himself together to speak...whoo.

if you really do this, i will start to take you more seriously.
i know a little about the options that were taken out. the audit trail at the exchange would have shown who the broker was, but would not necessarily have shown who the customer was. but you can rest assured that there was an audit trail. detecting this kind of spike in activity is vital to the options industry. someone knows. they are not telling.

HOW THE HELL CAN WE TRUST THE GOVERNMENT when they dissemble, they obfuscate, they cover-up, they refuse to investigate, they lie and lie and lie and lie and expect anyone with half a brain to BELIEVE this ridiculous CONSPIRACY BULL SHIT about http://muckrakerreport.com/id435.html">OSAMA BIN LADEN an 19 hijackers, steel frame buildings that "collapse" completely and uniformly at near free fall speed -- among other BULL SHIT I can name. HELL NO, Congressman, we do NOT have any trust in "government" left -- NOR SHOULD WE.

Neither should YOU, SIR!

And it isn't only the government!! The CORPORATE MEDIA have lied and covered up this CRIME against the people of the United States and against Humanity.

Seriously, I believe there are very dark forces at work within our society. I don't neccessarly believe the 9/11 conspiracy stuff but I think there is stuff the dark forces will protect to the point of assassination.

Be careful what planes you board Dennis!

I believe THOUSANDS of us would speak up to thousands of others, I truly believe that... martyr someone doing the right thing? you're asking for the truth to come out sooner!

When Wellstone died, everyone accepted the traditonal explaination despite serious questions to the contrary. I have my doubts that anything would really happen. Those that spoke out would be dismissed as insane "conspiracy theorists".

that'd be something... of course the MSM would blow it off after 3 or 4 days of coverage and not want to talk about it, but there's just some things that would be obvious if the 'accident' was questionable. but I agree, there'd be many who'd say anyone voicing doubt was just a crackpot c.theorist.

the official investigations suck.

The Jersey widows posed 300 questions to the 9/11 Commission.
They 27 answers. 200 of the questions got no response at all.

http://www.justicefor911.org/Appendix4_FSCQuestionRatings_111904.php

President Kucinich sounds kinda nice

If he's MIHOP or LIHOP or anything else, why doesn't he come out and say it? He's rather keep most of his credibility intact while stringing along conspiracy theorists who are fantasizing that he's taking a stand for them.

WHICH conspiracy theorists would that be? The official conspiracy theorists who believe that 19 hijackers blah blah, or the ones who believe it was a Cheney/Bush op? All of the theories as to what happened are conspiracy theories.

I've never heard that distinction before! :wow:

those who don't accept the Government's explanation of what happened on 9/11 by calling them "conspiracy theorists" AKA whackos. It's a way of invalidating what they say.

A conspiracy is 2 or more people colluding to carry out an illegal act. The idea that Osama, from a cave in Afghanistan or wherever, and 19 hijackers, planned and carried out the events of 9/11 is a conspiracy theory....in this case, the official conspiracy theory. There are alternate theories, every bit as worthy of being considered.


edit> clarity

Speak up and get whacked. Note: no court martial, since he could present a defense...

I guess he's taking cues from the leadership?
:eyes:

Ptech (notable clientele)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ptech

FAA, DoD, DOJ, WHITE HOUSE. You get the picture. Now, envision wargames (literally a footnote in the 9-11 Commiss Report) and voila !

Still there, new name.

If you look at his website you'll see that Rep. Kucinich has
positions on 90 issues. http://kucinich.us/issues

He has explained that if he made a sound-bite statement on 9/11,
he would instantly be branded as "The 9/11 Candidate" or worse.

He is very wisely keeping his options open for September, when he
can position himself as boldly or safely on the issue as he wishes.

:applause:

the only two TRUE Democrats running.

I'm at work and can't get the audio to the video.

Thanks in advance.

I believe this clip was from a Q and A session after a speech at the Sonoma County fairgrounds in Santa Rosa CA on June 10. Here is a short summary of what occurred in the clip. An audience member shouted out a question about whether Kucinich had found out anything in his 911 investigation (I believe skeptics of the official story have been pressuring him to investigate the 911 issues and questions raised on various web sites and by various groups, and he has promised to do so). Kucinich replied to the questioner that Congress would hold hearings (I think he said in September) into two discreet issues related to 911 and these issues were financial issues. He then asked the audience how many of them believed that they had not got the full story on 911 and got a vociferous response seeming to indicate a large number of those present were not confident that they were getting the straight scoop on 911. Kucinich went on to say that this response was in line with the feedback that he is getting from all over the country. Many people have serious doubts as to the official explanation for 9/11. The numbers are getting too big to ignore and the peoples' trust in government is being damaged and as a politician he has a responsibility to address these types of concerns and these proposed hearings he mentioned would be part of that effort.


I see a link to another Youtube video of the June 10 speech at his web site, but no transcript. Maybe you can contact his campaign people and they can get one for you. http://kucinich.us/

:to join in a secret agreement to do an unlawful or wrongful act or an act which becomes unlawful as a result of the secret agreement.

It's fact that the government hasn't given us all the data in regards to 911.
1) Confiscated video of the plane hitting and flying toward the Pentagon is still held by the FBI.
2) WTC 7's fall was not explained in the governments reluctant investigation.
3) The failure of NORAD and accountability for those failures has not been dealt with. Even after NORAD was exposed as lying.
4) The BBC's ability to report on a falling building that hadn't fallen yet.
5) The "official" story was put forth by our government and media and we all know how honest they are these days.
6) Did they lie about Iraq? Yes.
7) Does the Project For A New American Century document posted online explain their obvious goals? Yes.
8) In the "Great Game" for oil doesn't it make sense that a ruse such as terrorism makes for an excellent exscuse for plundering other nations treasures while furthering U.S. geopolitical interests? It's obvious thats whats going on if one just looks at what the U.S. is up to towards Russia.

The PNAC document is a great source for predicting the future as the orchestrator's of all the things that have been happening signed it openly in 1998. The media never mentions PNAC because it's a bit of a spoiler. Plus it's obvious our media is in on it as they keep us dumbed down with sensationalistic BS (Paris Hilton, Anna Nicole). They never talk of geopolitics. They took Vladimir Putins articulate press session this week and turned it into a couple of sound bites for the American sheeple to consume. The real deal can be read here: http://mathaba.net/news/?x=555105

Also a great film to see is the "Press For 911 Truth" movie. The story of the 911 widows who lobbied for the "official" 911 investigation. The documentary brings forward many other interesting question such as " Who wired Mohommad Atta the $100,000 for 911?" According to the documentary the money trail goes back to Pakistan and one of Musharifs generals who also happened to have met White House officials previously. Link here: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3979568779414136481

So folks who denounce conspiracy theorists do us a favor and present some data and go read some Shakespeare. Conspiracy's do happen and the U.S. is not immune to that phenomena. Hopefully Dennis Kucinich can help shed more light on the nefarious events of that day.

also his WH 'War Room' director was with him at the FL school

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=125&topic_id=114370

Hmmm.

Seems like you are the only one I can count on to speak the truth......


...and yeah...follow the money trail and it will lead you to the truth...or closer at least...



DR

I heard quite a few reports about this and then The 9-11 Whitewash Report comes out and says, "no, those reports were all wrong. Nothing to see there."

Anybody got any links to the strange stock sales?

ON EDIT--

I think Palast is on the right track. BushCo doesn't want anyone digging into the finances because it's going to lead right back to his pals, the Saudis.

The BFFE has made too much money from these Oil Sheiks to let a few thousand dead Americans ruin that good thing . . .

which Dennis Kucinich was one of the recipients.

Subject: Your Assistance in Pursuing the Bank Who Funded 9-1

Dear Candidates:
My name is Leonard D. Wallace. I am a businessman located in South Florida. During
2001, 1 was involved in a series of planned financial transactions with Citibank-
Citigroup ("Citigroup").

Letter to U. S. Presidential Candidates
April 25, 2007

Page 2 of 5
As a result of my dealings with numerous entities and individuals at Citigroup, I
obtained incriminating information against them and their executives that related to
financing international terrorism. I learned how Citigroup (headquartered at 399 Park
Avenue, New York, New York) was in the business of financing Saudi banks and their
account holders who were involved in terrorism before and after the mass murder of
nearly 3,000 innocent victims on September I I , 2001 ("9-1 I ").
I am writing to share this information with you because 1 want you to know how
Citigroup and the current administration have not sought out the truth in this matter, and
in fact, they are both guilty of a cover-up for these past five years. I believe the families
of att those who were murdered on 9-1 t by those t9 Arabs deserve an honest
examination of the real facts.
Do you think it is too much to ask for justice and closure for all of those who were so
terribly affected by the tragic events of 9-1 I? If you are the candidate who becomes
our 441h president, I pray to God you will appropriately and expeditiously put the full
weight of your office behind a real investigation.
I was brought into this spider web of greed and illegality by J. Clifford Baxter, a
business associate of mine who was at one time vice chairman of Enron. Through his
relationship with Robert Rubin in Citigroup's Chairman's Suite in New York City, in
August, 2001, 1 became privy to a series of business transactions planned by Citigroup
that I began to realize were not only illegal but also aiding international terrorism from
Saudi Arabia. I complained to Citigroup's senior executives and their board, and Cliff
told me and athers that he was gaing to expose this bank fraud af Citigroup and Saudi
banks. Then, about 30 days after my first letter to Citigroup's chairman, Cliff suddenly
died on January 18, 2002 from what is to this day still considered a very questionable
suicide.
I have enclosed a number of key documents to support what I am describing. The first
is a December 20, 200t letter to Sanfo~d Wettt (then Citigroup Chairman & CEO), along
with the 4-page Euroclear Posting Instructions that I received from Citigroup. On page
4 of that attachment there is a specific reference in Section I. of how transaction profits
are to be distributed to Type 98 accounts connected with the Saudi Arabian Bank.
(Type 98 accounts have since become widely known as conduits for financing
terrorism.)
As part of this effort to seek justice for the mass murders of 9-1 I , Kenneth R. Feinberg,
Esquire of Washington, D. C., agreed to counsel me on issues that are kept nonpartisan.
For over three years, I sent communications to no avail to Citigroup, its directors and
government officials. During this period, Citigroup went from being a highly regarded
institution known for professionalism and integrity to an often embarrassed, scandalplagued
operation whose actions were often questioned by its customers and
stockholders.
Letter to U. S. Presidential Candidates
April 25, 2007
Page 3 of 5
Finally, on February 14, 2005, 1 filed a 5-page complaint (enclosed but without
attachments) with U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales. i then received a June 28,
2005 dated letter (attached) from Barry M. Sabin, the Chief of the Criminal Division of
the U.S. Department of Justice indicating that this complaint had been forwarded to Tim
McCants, the Unit Chief of the FBI's Terrorist Financing Operations Section for further
review.
For months, I waited for this investigation to take place, but I was never even
interviewed.
I wrote a number of people for help, including Florida Governor Jeb Bush, who wrote
back suggesting that I contact both Florida senators, which I did. Senator Bill Nelson
did respond to me and he included a September 5, 2006 letter from the FBI's Joseph
Billy, Acting Assistant Director of the Counterterrrorisrn Division of the National Security
Branch (see 2 pages of enclosed October 24,2006 correspondence).
Finally, l was interviewed over the telephone via some relatively short conversations by
an FBI agent from New York City. An FBI agent later told me that the Department of
Justice had called off my interviews and that it was not "important." I was told that this
came directly from Attorney General Alberto Gonzales1 office. Apparently, the events
leading up to 9-1 1 was no longer a priority. It turned out to be, so far as I know, a white
wash job.
Additionally, Richard "Bo" Dietl (New York City) has also reviewed and investigated this
matter. He twice referred to this on MSNBC's lmus in the Morning show during 2006
(January 23 and April 6). So far as I know, Citigroup did not pursue Mr. Dietl for a
retraction of his comments on television. Also, Bill Gallagher of the Niagara Falls
Reporter has written several articIes concerning this matter. His 5-page December 5,
2006 article is attached. To my knowledge, Citigroup has never asked for a retraction
of any of his articles.
Citigroup has never offered any sort of proof that they did not finance Saudi training
camps where the 19 Arabs learned how to become a synchronized group of murderers.
Some of the terrorist leaders have been detained and/or killed but others have not.. .
including their American enablers.
Concerning fighting global terrorism, just about everyone has agreed on how it's so
important "to follow the money." Well, that initiative stopped when it came time to
investigate this powerful multinational financial company.
So, where do things stand? We have a Department of Justice who somehow thinks
they have investigated my complaint. However, even though Senator Bill Nelson
interceded on my behalf, I've never seen their report.
Letter to U. S. Presidential Candidates
April 25, 2007

And of course, this affair now falls largely on the doorstep of Alberto Gonzales, who is
now largely known for not being able to remember key information points or to find
important files. It now appears that Gonzales is a lead player in nothing short of a
criminal conspiracy. This is the same Department of Justice that Senator Arlen Specter
(R-PA) commented was "in disrepair and dysfunctional" (Sunday, April 1, 2007, during
NBC's Meet the Press). He further added how Attorney General Gonzales had "lied to
Congress," I can certainly concur with the sentiments of Senator Specter.
This cover-up of criminal misconduct has certainly been perpetrated both at 1600
Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington, D.C. and at Citigroup's 399 Park Avenue address
in New York City.
I have asked a number of prominent people to put pressure onto the federal
government for a real inquiry to begin. After receiving information via DHL mailings
similar to this mailing, they have all, thus far, stopped short of helping me to push for a
meaningful investigation. Copies of this correspondence are available upon request.
These people include:
King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz aCSaud of Saudi Arabia (December 2006)
Bill Gates (November 2006)
Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Bin Abdul Aziz Alsaud, Saudi Arabia Ambassador to
the U.S. (November 2006)
President George H. W. Bush (November 2006)
James A. Baker IV, Esquire (October 2006)
Harold Schaitberger, General President, International Association of Fire
Fighters (September 2006)
When and how will Citigroup certify that none of the funds they managed anywhere in
the world were ever used by and or commingled with accounts by various
criminallterrorist organizations in Saudi Arabia and elsewhere prior to 9-1 1 and after?
Citigroup needs to be held to answer about their funding of international terrorism and
their related cover-up.
Who is interested in pursuing the truth in this matter? As indicated, 1 have written to all
16 currently announced U.S. presidential candidates. Additionally, via a private letter, I
have asked executives at ABC, CBS and NBC for assistance in bringing this matter to
the light of day, as well as emails that are going out within the media (see list attached).
You now know how badly this matter has been handled by both the White House and
Citigroup. As a legitimate candidate for the presidency, I trust that you agree that there
be a fair, non-partisan investigation that leaves no stone unturned, with the results
being completely publicized. This investigation would be the very least that is owed to
the many victims of 9-1 I. I see no reason why anyone should disagree with having this
investigation. If you do not agree, kindly notify by sending me your written notification.
Letter to U. S. Presidential Candidates
April 25, 2007
Page 5 of 5
I look forward to learning of your response and am available to answer any questions or
provide additional supporting information.
My goal is for the truth to prevail and that the White House and Citigroup soon be
reviewed for criminal conspiracy by the highest court in the land, the court of public
opinion.
Orliy time will tell.
