1. Why would the Peace movement want to distance themselves from 9/11 Truth?
I think the answer is obvious, the Peace movement is covering for Bushco's 9/11 crimes. The leaders of the Peace movement are Bushco supporters.

3. That may be true, but I don't think so...
I think that, since the truthers get labeled as kooks -- the peace movement in LA didn't want them front & center.

5. Obviously WeAreChange thought bringing their banners to a Peace demonstration...
... would make it look like a lot more people actually support their 9/11 Truth stance when in fact the organizers of that Peace demonstration didn't want the actual message of the day to be co-opted by a few dozen people with big banners.

If the 9/11 Truth movement had enough members willing to gather in significant enough numbers to be noticed, they wouldn't have to try to bolster their numbers by joining someone else's demonstration with huge banners making it appear to less interested observers that everyone there supported their message.

6. So you're saying that 9/11 Truth is not part of the peace movement?
???

7. Clearly they are a welcome and indispensable part of the Peace movement...
... based on the video in your opening post.

"... we've already been told that we're not allowed to have the big blue banners and we need to go to the back of the bus."

"... that's what they tried to say - 9/11 is not an anti-war message."

"... we're not going to go to the back of the bus today."

"... they tried to kick us to the back of the bus. We wouldn't have anything of it. They said that this is not the message of the march..."

"... I figured out why they're upset, because we're up front. See, that's why they are getting upset, because we're up front and we ain't budging ..."

2. I thought the guy ranting about fluoridated water about six minutes in was an especially nice touch.
It's pretty encouraging alrighty - especially if you're a stockholder in one of the larger pharmaceutical companies.
