Remembering 911

Which version of 911 will be remembered by our children? The one the US government told us? The one where they say a Boeing 757 can disappear into a small hole in the Pentagon, leaving no large broken off tail sections or wings? Are our children going to be taught in school how two planes could bring down three buildings, flatten them in demolition kind of fashion although scientists can’t explain how jet fuel can melt steel? Will more movies be released telling stories of cellphone calls being made at 30 000 ft altitude?

It is so sad for almost 3000 people to have lost their lives that day in America. It saddens me even more that tens of thousands if not more people lost their lives in Afghanistan and Iraq as a result on this war on “terror”. How sad is it if I look at how much “freedoms” we have to give up in this fight on “terrorism”. We gladly accept being spied upon, our phone call listened too, our mail intercepted and video surveillance everywhere in the name of “safety”.

This is what that fateful day on 911 left us, the legacy of fear, hatred, war and more questions for those willing to ask. The only bit of light I see out of this event are the few people that do ask questions. It means that not all the people have been hypnotized to belief what CNN or Fox tell them. It means there are at least a few people in this world that can think for themselves or at least ask questions and don’t accept the “official” line.

Five years ago a few evil men needed another “Pearl Harbor” to start the war on “terror”. They seemed to have accomplished that mission. Today we see Israel killing innocent Palestinians, flattening buildings, destroying bridges in the fight on “terror” and the world says nothing. We see airports closed, flights cancelled, people arrested in the UK and people accept this discomfort, because they are fighting “terrorism”. We see people being locked up without court trails in secret jails. We accept this because it is the fight against “terrorism” and because it is not happening to us.

What if these evil men decide to make the new “terrorist’s” face look like yours? What if you are now the one that are locked up without a court trial or being subjected to discrimination because you have the “terrorist’s” look? Will you remain quiet when you are unfairly treated just because of the way you look?

Five years ago we saw evil happening first hand. Most people think that this evil is somewhere over there, sitting in a cave in Afghanistan. It is far closer to “home”. If you truly belief this “official” story about what happened on this day in America five years ago, then the evil has won over your mind. You will then believe their next story of a “terrorist” attack and give up more of your freedoms in the name of safety and security. I am using this 5th “anniversary” of the event 911, to remind me that I should question more the “official” versions of events in this world and not to blindly accept what I am told.

I want the real Truth to be exposed so that when we look back at historical events like 911, that the real historical event is taught to our children. I am not sure if the world is ready for the Truth, the Truth can be much scarier than the lies we are being told and taught. But what is the alternative? To live believing all these lies is like living in a fantasy land, you will also become part of the fantasy land.

I truly hope there are other people like me also looking to gain true knowledge and search for Truth. Then our news papers will tell the real story of what happened on this day 5 years ago or at the very least also question the “official” version told by the US Government.
