7. That's one of the more effective...
Edited on Sun Jan-06-08 10:07 PM by Mr_Jefferson_24
...presentations of Sibel's story I've seen -- thank you for posting it.

The commentary of one viewer posting as Phaeton:

My allegiance is yours Sibel(le), your account could be
the catalyst for achieving critical mass, godspeed.


I believe as the Sibel Edmonds case goes so goes our nation -- we permit this Neocon cabal of criminals to bury her at our peril.

9. Yes, thanks for posting this video (Kill the Messanger). I have been looking for a good overview
Edited on Sun Jan-06-08 10:55 PM by enough
of her case and that does a good job. The connection with the Plame case made near the end is also very interesting.

They Thought They Were Free - Read by Dave Emory

The Germans, 1933-45

Excerpt from pages 166-73 of "They Thought They Were Free" First published in 1955

By Milton Mayer

But Then It Was Too Late

"What no one seemed to notice," said a colleague of mine, a philologist, "was the ever widening gap, after 1933, between the government and the people. Just think how very wide this gap was to begin with, here in Germany. And it became always wider. You know, it doesn’t make people close to their government to be told that this is a people’s government, a true democracy, or to be enrolled in civilian defense, or even to vote. All this has little, really nothing, to do with knowing one is governing.

"What happened here was the gradual habituation of the people, little by little, to being governed by surprise; to receiving decisions deliberated in secret; to believing that the situation was so complicated that the government had to act on information which the people could not understand, or so dangerous that, even if the people could understand it, it could not be released because of national security. And their sense of identification with Hitler, their trust in him, made it easier to widen this gap and reassured those who would otherwise have worried about it.

....

"Yes," I said.

"You see," my colleague went on, "one doesn’t see exactly where or how to move. Believe me, this is true. Each act, each occasion, is worse than the last, but only a little worse. You wait for the next and the next. You wait for one great shocking occasion, thinking that others, when such a shock comes, will join with you in resisting somehow. You don’t want to act, or even talk, alone; you don’t want to ‘go out of your way to make trouble.’ Why not?—Well, you are not in the habit of doing it. And it is not just fear, fear of standing alone, that restrains you; it is also genuine uncertainty.

"Uncertainty is a very important factor, and, instead of decreasing as time goes on, it grows. Outside, in the streets, in the general community, ‘everyone’ is happy. One hears no protest, and certainly sees none. You know, in France or Italy there would be slogans against the government painted on walls and fences; in Germany, outside the great cities, perhaps, there is not even this. In the university community, in your own community, you speak privately to your colleagues, some of whom certainly feel as you do; but what do they say? They say, ‘It’s not so bad’ or ‘You’re seeing things’ or ‘You’re an alarmist.’



Michael Parenti - Terrorism, Globalism & Conspiracy



"Coincidence Theory: By shear chance things just happen repeatedly and coincidentally to benefit their interests without any conscious connivance by them, which is most uncanny. There is also: Stupidity Theory, Innocence Theory, Momentary Aberration Theory, Incompetence Theory, Unintended Consequences Theory and Innocent Cultural Proclivities Theory."

- Michael Parenti

2. This was deleted the last time it was submitted for 9/11 CT crapola.
Why did you submit it again?

10. When the moderators and administrators delete your "political video" once...
...why submit it again?

That sounds like spamming.

5. After Edmunds revelations it is definitely time to reopen 911.
A new investigation should be put together immediately. there is obviously much more to the story than what the american people have been told.

13. Yes, this video is. Casazza made a crappy CT claim about knowing the date and time
and gives a shout out to 9/11 CT schlockmeister Richard Gage in the video.

It was deleted once. It's going to be deleted again. Quit spamming the boards with these cuckoo theories!

8. I think a fairly compelling case could be made for...
...criminal prosecution of ALL major U.S. media outlets who knew of Sibel's story, but chose to cooperate with the Neocon criminal cabal and bury it.

MSM does not own the public airwaves, the people do. We need to find some effective ways to remind them of that.

11. Oh, the hell it is.
You posted this because of Casazza's CT claim about KNOWING THE DATE AND TIME of the attack, which is utter crap.

One way we can tell that Sibel is not some crazy conspiracy theorist is the lengths the administration has gone to gag her.
