Pentagon Papers Author Daniel Ellsberg Says Government May Have Carried Out 9/11

Predicts Bush Regime Will Stage Terrorist Attack to Provide Pretext for Iran, Syria Invasion, And Justify Internment Camps for American People

Daniel Ellsberg is a former American military analyst employed by the RAND Corporation who precipitated a national firestorm in 1971 when he released the Pentagon Papers, the US military's account of activities during the Vietnam War, to The New York Times. The release awakened the American people to a systematic program of organized deception carried out by the Pentagon against the population to continue the Vietnam War.

Daniel Ellsberg, speaking on air to GCN radio host Jack Blood, stated his concerns that criminal elements of the US government were psychologically capable to have carried out 9/11. He warned that within days after a US military strike on Iran that Bush's handlers would probably stage some type of terror attack in the West to legitimize the new war.

"If there’s another 9/11 or a major war in the Middle-East involving a U.S. attack on Iran, I have no doubt that there will be, the day after or within days an equivalent of a Reichstag fire decree that will involve massive detentions in this country."

Author, Pentagon Papers

Ellsberg went on to state that another major Reichstag-like state-sponsored attack would be followed by a martial law scenario which might include detention camps for American dissenters.

Ellsberg said that he worked with individuals at the highest levels of government who staged war provocations several times to whip up pro-war sentiment in the US. Daniel Ellsberg now joins the ranks of hundreds of prominent engineers, physicists, economists, military officers, pilots, high-level intelligence analysts, and cabinet ministers who are exposing the 9/11 hoax.

Each day more and more respected professionals are going public with their questions about the official 9/11 fable. The 9/11 cover-up dam is breaking under the weight of these truthseekers' efforts and the perpetrators of 9/11 are watching them in horror while wondering who will be the next to speak up.

Here is a partial transcript of the interview:

Jack Blood: Have you had a chance to take a look at a lot of this information coming from America’s leading scholars, physicists, engineers, etc. Who have taken a look now at 9/11 and are now, not only questioning what might have happened on 9/11, but really being very direct including a number of high level …

Daniel Ellsberg: Actually, I have looked at a lot of that, and I’ll tell you without going into it all which would take a lot of time, I find some of it very implausible and other parts of it quite solid, and there’s no question in my mind that there’s enough evidence there to justify a very comprehensive and hard hitting investigation of a kind that we’ve not seen, with subpoenas, general questioning of people, and raising the release of a lot of documents, there’s no question that (D.E. chuckles) put it this way, very serious questions have been raised, about how much they knew beforehand and how much involvement there may been. Is the, is a administration capable, humanly and physiologically of engineering such a provocation?

Yes, I would say that, I worked for such an administration myself, Johnson, ah, President Johnson put destroyers in harm’s way in the Tonkin Gulf not only once, but several times, with the, with a lot of his people hoping that it would lead to a confrontation and claiming that it had. And could have resulted in the lost of many lives in the course of it. And what I’m saying now, by the way though is this, and here there’s a very strong analogy, to this day there is a controversy gone back and forth historically, as to who caused the Reichstag fire, the burning of their parliament, the Reichstag, on February 27 th 1933. Goering, at one point, the number two man in the Nazi regime, said “I set that fire”, later he denied that at Nuremberg, and I’ve noticed that the latest history suggests, that it wasn’t the Nazi’s. The point is that all this time later is there is still a controversy about that. But, what there’s no controversy about is the use the Nazi’s made of it, that very night and the next day.

J.B. Cui Bono, who benefits

D.E. February 28 th, there was a Reichstag fire decree that ended freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of association, all in the Weimar Constitution, and privacy of the postal system and of communications and of telephone, what ended here to, more than we knew four years ago right after 9/11. If there’s another 9/11 or a major war in the Middle-East involving a U.S. attack on Iran, I have no doubt that there will be, the day after or within days an equivalent of a Reichstag fire decree that will involve massive detentions in this country, detention camps for middle-easterners and their quote “sympathizers”, critics of the President’s policy and essentially the wiping-out of the Bill of Rights.

J.B. I know your walking very carefully here Daniel Ellsberg, but that’s pretty strong medicine and we have to look at the history of the world, governments do this, as you mentioned, governments are liars, governments are murderers, they, this is not above them, I’m sure your familiar with the Northwoods Document.

D.E. Ah yes, indeed. Yeah talking about a manufactured provocation which could have involved even the shooting down of an American or some other airliner, with American support. Yes I would say by the way, that Americans definitely play this game, I’m sure that it’s happening now.

We, I expected by the way, Bush to manufacture a kind of Tonkin Gulf incident before he went into Iraq and then I decided well I’d been wrong they didn’t feel they needed that. It is interesting that the memos that came out, in conversations between Blair and Bush, (aka The White House Memo), show that Bush was pressing for the possibility of sending over a U-2 and getting it fired on and using that as an excuse.

J.B. A U-2 painted like a U.N., ah, a United Nations airplane.

D.E. Yes, but they couldn’t do that again for sure. But, what is happening right now is that Israel is clearly seeking a generally provocative act by both Hammas and Hezbollah, which I think were not wise acts some people are applauding those in the Middle-East passing out sweets and so forth, very short-sighted I would say, a lot of innocent people are going to die as a result.

Kevin Smith & Alex Jones

Some interesting remarks from Daniel Ellsberg, but it still mystifies me why many well-meaning radicals, liberals and former CIA agents like Ray McGovern, Greg Palast, and filmmaker Richard Linklater give air time to a racist, anti-Mexican conspiracy freak like Alex Jones. Myself and many of my friends were once caught up in the Jones cool aid and all that "freemason-secret government-conspiracy-a-go-go" mumbo jumbo which reflects spending too much time lost in the malaise of Austin's slacker culture. As much as Mr. Jones would have you believe he is a radical or progressive given his sometimes adept insights on the loss of civil liberties, police state tactics, government complicity in terrorism, and the criminal acts of U.S. foreign policy, he's still basically a victim of white privilege and American pseudo-nativism. His position on the immigration question is basically the same as the Minutemen and other paranoid right wing lunatics from Bill O'Reilly to the Aryan Nations (although he'll claim, like many white liberals, that he has "defended the rights of blacks, and stood for justice for Hisapnics who have been shot by police). Like many of these other xenophobic turds, he perpetuates many of the false myths of a reconquista, having supposedly faced off with a few testosterone-oriented, fringe Mexican-American activists who simply intimidated him with some malarky about the "end of the white race" and what not.
On his site he posts other falsehoods about MECHA (a college retention program for Hispanics, which is sometimes villified by neo-cons just for challenging white supremacy) and shows that he's been suckered by the right wing by posting the bogus Plan de San Diego, which is like the Latino "Protocols of the Elders of Zion" (Jones probably believes in the validity of that too). Then the retard keeps mispelling Azltan and "Atzala." (LOL). Perhaps he should take a Chicano Studies or Latino Studies, or hell, even an American Studies class and get a clue. Until then, don't drink the kool aid.

I think it's time to get past the "Alex Jones" issue on this and look at what Daniel Ellsberg and other respected voices are telling us. I think that the true progressives should claim this dialogue and create a forum that will have some wings. This is an extremely important issue and shouldn't be turned out to the back porch just because we don't like the messenger.

I agree that Alex Jones is dangerous and we should maintain a wide berthe from his white nationalistic crap.

But look at the issue. Look at the consequences of 9-11. I don't have to enumerate it all. We all know the loss of rights we have experienced; we have all witnessed the rise of the most dangerous and powerful administrations in recent history, and the amount of deaths is catastrophic. If all this was based on a planned event, executed to paralyze with fear and hoodwink an entire population, we need to seriously look at it. Stephen King could not have imagined anything more sinister.
Again I say: let's get Alex Jones and his culties out of this discussion and take a real hard look at it from a true progressive position. People like Daniel Ellsberg are only talking to Jones because it's the only forum open to him.
