9-11 has not been mentioned one time in all the current political campaigning....heard anything at all ? 9-11 is barely ever mentioned in mass media news any more. 9-11 is put away conveniently so everyone can pretend that ....we are now 'safe' ...and need not think, nor remember, nor dis-cover, nor explore, nor expose and not discuss-talk about what we worry about becaues it has not been fully investigated nor revealed... "No, dont discuss that's old news !" + "not now, not any more, that's the long ago Past...." they often say so easily & repeatedly.
What is wrong with this distracting atmosphere we are breathing in daily ?
There is another article re 9-11 here - in la.indymedia - that provides resources and inundates us with relevant informatioin ... .so much complied info re 9-11...thatwe all need to know - much more than is in any current news media or campaigns or distractions so easily continually pressed upon us all...
Such dlligent dedicated work to put all this out here...and we hope all this and more resources & information appear on all the other cities/nation's indymedia's and bloggers pick it up as well, and also attributing to the authors in appreciation for the work done. here, or elsewhere.
Funny or rather strange how silent the mass media and common talk nowadays is about not even noticing we had such a blasting event, regardless of who made the mess and killings.
Notice that not one campaigner noticed that 9-11 is to be remembered even, as if They Dont Care ??? huh?
And dont we wonder why the people = who have questioned + researched + explored + dis-covered + Written + exposed + made movies + tabled with fliers & stickers & events + dedicated upteen hours alll year long since that horrific time..... are ignored now-a-days....hmmmm
and since the Patriot Act is a mean, cruel, OVERREACHING and encoaching on our normal citizen civil liberties as citizens of this USA [ long before that administration decided to convert anyone they chose into "terrorists" and declare "a war on terror" as if the phenomenon/ feeling/state of mind could be warred against...] has been Renewed to coninue on and on and maybe forever..
giving anyone who Thinks or claims Authority, by govt or other means, to use discriminately as they so decide for their own reasons.... or giving anyone who can bribe, join the corrupt-cronnies-and-colluders Influence...to maybe take revenge or advange of anyone else ...what is this so claimed "democracy" with "freedoms" we have now ? gone forever ? never to be retrieved it seems.
And the people in the area who were physically and even more emotionally and mentally negatively affected, some with loss of family and friends, others with polluted air and other conditions condemned then as "safe" but was not...those people are still suffering, and not hardly heard from in news or any media we see or read.
Why has the topic been dismissed and ignored and avoided? Why only in 'outlying' media, like Indy and such as Pacifica is there any continued coverage, disclosures, reminders that we allllll have been damaged as a result of the big huge break-down, of buildings, of govt trust, of belief that we can save our way claimed to be 'democractic' or whatever that is limited to mean by now.
Thank you both author above, all 9-11 workers, past and present. Thank you Indymedia for being available for this place [vs. getting lost in the shuffle of billions of other blogs on net proliferating and thus obscuring many] where such info can be seen, forwarded, and saved.
This is far from over.
The cover ups including Obama's saying we do not 'look back' meaning never prosecute or question your antecedors because they will do that to you later too. The topic has never been clarified, admitted officially in any way, and instead has been dismissed as no longer important or relelvant....hoping the rest of the global world too will all agree and 'forget' so conveniently for some few.
9-11 will and is a striking time that has left us scared, for what has resulted more AFTER the killings [disabling exits so fires and throwing oneself out highrises was only optioin for many ].
So we now have hidden surveillances, legalized and illegal too. Never admitted until something someone gets hurt, then revealed finally, inadvertently at times.
We now have Patriot [so called anyhow] laws that can sweep up protestors or emailers or those who dare question authority in any form/place/manner/time, and we have FEAR monger and FEAR prevailing, including the main news stories doing the mongering 24/7].
What a world to be born into for the young children !
What a disgraced nation in which to be a citizen now.
What a farce when laws are not enforced except when conveneint to the few or corporate monied.
What a world has resulted from the ideals of the 60's & 70's...gone, lost, desecrated and decayed.
What a shame we are in this mess, still now.
