This is an archive of past Bay Area 9-11 events, beginning in February 2004 - December 2009. The events that I have organized are in my blog/archive, but there is so much happening in the Bay Area- many 9-11 events that I have not organized or even heard about- this just reflects the ones that I have been aware of and have tried to help publicize. The most recent events were added to the bottom of this list, oldest events are at the top.

"Truth and Politics: Unanswered Questions about 9/11"with David Ray Griffin
Presbyterian Church of the Roses
2500 Patio Court, Santa Rosa (just off Farmer's Lane behind Albertsons)
Sunday, October 3, 2004, 2:00PM -4:30PM
David Ray Griffin with Derrill Bodley, father of Deora Bodley, who died on 9/11 in the crash of United Flight 93. Then a panel, including Peter Phillips (Project Censored/SSU), William Haigwood (Sonoma West Times & News), and Bonnie Faulkner (host of Guns & Butter, KPFA Public Affairs Show)
David Ray Griffin of Claremont School of Theology (Emeritus) , author and editor of 25 books, Griffin was, before his recent retirement, Professor of Philosophy of Religion and Theology at Claremont for 31 years. He is an advocate of process theology and has given special attention to the problem of evil, Jesus and christology, science and theology, and ecology and religion. Two of his most recent books are entitled Reenchantment without Supernaturalism: A Process Philosophy of Religion, and Two Great Truths: A New Synthesis of Scientific Naturalism and Christian Faith.
So why is Griffin coming to keynote a forum on "Truth and Politics: Unanswered Questions about 9/11"? Because another topic to which he has devoted himself over the past decade has been theology and politics, with particular attention to the need for global democracy. After 9/11, he began an intensive study of US imperialism. In the course of that investigation, he came across evidence suggesting that the attacks of 9/11 may have been arranged by the Bush administration as a pretext to further its imperialistic goals. Out of this study he wrote The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions about the Bush Administration and 9/11, which entirely through word-of-mouth publicity--it has yet to be reviewed in a mainstream newspaper or magazine--has become something of a best-seller. It is widely considered the best introduction to the problems with the official account of 9/11. Now Griffin has written another book on the subject, this one taking a critical look at The 9/11 Commission Report. His talk will be based primarily on this forthcoming book, The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions and Distortions.
In addition to Griffin, the forum will hear from Derrill Bodley, father of Deora Bodley, who died on 9/11 in the crash of United Flight 93. Then a panel, including Peter Phillips (Project Censored/SSU), William Haigwood (Sonoma West Times & News), and Bonnie Faulkner (host of Guns & Butter, KQED Public Affairs Show), will question Griffin and Bodley, followed by questions from the audience.
There is no admission fee, only a freewill offering to cover expenses. For additional information, contact - Rev. Paul Burks, at Friends House, 684 Benicia Drive #53, Santa Rosa, CA 95409; 707-576-6653, or pburks@earthlight.org.
Sponsors of this event include the Unitarian Universalist Congregation's Advocates for Social Justice (SR), the Peace and Justice Center of Sonoma County, Alliance for Democracy, PeaceWorkers, World Stewardship Institute, Origin Press, and Veterans for Peace.

Blow the Whistle on Philip Zelikow, Executive Director of the 9/11 Cover-Up Commission!
Kresge Auditorium, Stanford University,
free and open to the public.
next Wednesday, Oct 20, 3:30PM -5:30 PM,( talk begins at 4:15, but people are encouraged to come earlier-the sonsior says come at 3:45 and we should have signs/banner/flyers on hand before the crowds arrive)
Zelikow, a national security adviser to both Bush administrations, a principal author of the official 9-11 Commission Report, who co-authored a book with Condoleezza Rice, was part of Bush’s transition team for the National Security Council after the 2000 election, and appointed to the President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board a month after the 9-11 attacks. The Family Steering Committee called for his resignation because of his obvious conflicts of interests.
While 9-11 has been used to invade Afghanistan, Iraq, shred the Constitution and Bill of Rights, construct a Global Police State, enrich weapons manufacturers, seize oil assets; there have been no convictions in any courts of law supporting the “government conspiracy theory,” particularly the Saddam Hussein/Al Qaeda link. Zelikow has helped ignore and steer questions away from “Who financed the attacks? Who had the means, motive, and ability to carry it out? Who benefited? Who had the ability to destroy evidence, and cover up the crime?”
The 9-11 Commission failed to mention or address the mulitple wargames/exercises that were being conducted that day, out of the White House. As many as five war game drills were in process, some involving hijacked airliners, some involving false blips deliberately inserted onto FAA and military radar screens. One exercise pulled significant fighter resources away from the North Eastern United States on September 11th, 2001. These exercises involved NORAD, the FAA, the Canadian Air Force, the CIA, the National Reconnaissance Office, and, “coincidentally,” in New York City massive preparations were underway for a “biochemical attack drill” involving FEMA, the Mayor’s Office of Emergency Management, the FBI, US Department of Justice, Weill Medical College of Cornell Medical Center, NY Department of Health, NY Fire Department, NY Police Department, the American Red Cross, the Port Authority. The Secret Service and Cheney’s overseeing role during the events of 9-11 should have been scrutinized.
It’s time to question Zelikow, and cast some light on the darker secrets of the Shadow Government that uses terror and war to increase and maintain their power.
The 9/11 Commission’s Report and recommendations are highly suspect, if not downright fictitious. (Ominously, they are being used to rush through legislation to create a new powerful overseeing Intelligence Agency.)
Questions and Issues that they completely ignored-
The importance of oil, “Peak Oil,” Cheney’s Secret Energy Task Force meetings, the importance of the illicit drug trade to the US economy (particularly the heroin flow through Afghanistan), money laundering, the strategic importance of the Caspian Sea region, Pakistan’s ISI’s close relationship with the CIA, the Carlyle group, Dave Fresca, Sibel Edmonds, Coleen Rowley, John O’Neill, insider trading, Israel, World Trade Center Building #7, Enron, the Office of National Preparedness…
Questions for Zelikow-
Why didn't you resign after you ended up testifying as a witness to your own Commission?
What did it mean when Commissioner Max Cleland did resign last year, and called the Commission a whitewash and a sequel to the Warren Commission?
Why does "The 9/11 Commission Report" fail to pursue the well-known terror connections of the CIA's client agency, the Pakistani ISI? Why does it ignore reports that the alleged 9/11 plotters received funds from the ISI? Why does it claim that the financing of the 9/11 attacks is of "no practical significance"?
Why does the report fail to ask why the key men in the U.S. military chain of command - Bush, Rumsfeld, Myers, Winfield - by their own accounts and by the public record appear to have done nothing to exercise their decision-making authorities during the actual 9/11 attacks, i.e. in the time from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. on Sept. 11, 2001?
Why does the report omit to mention the advance warnings of attacks on the United States received from foreign intelligence agencies in the weeks prior to Sept. 11?
Why does the report ignore the FBI whistleblowers who decried high-level obstruction of field investigations into potential terrorists in the months before 9/11?
Why did the report arbitrarily change the timeline, in contradiction to public testimony, of U.S. air defense response on Sept. 11?
Why doesn't the report even mention the mysterious collapse of a third skyscraper, 7 WTC, on the afternoon of Sept. 11? Why doesn't the report condemn Rumsfeld and Rice for their repeated statements that "no one could have imagined planes used as weapons," –demonstrable lies? Did the Commissioners pursue any of the above lines of questioning in the confidential parts of their 18-month investigation? Did they have access to relevant information not included in their report, and not covered in the public hearings? There is no way to tell: the report lacks visible redactions to show the censoring of classified material.
Announcement of the Stanford event by its co-sponsor, Stanford Institute for International Studies http://siis.stanford.edu/news/329/
Examination of the Sponsoring Organization's website reveals that-9/11: Looking Backward and Looking Forward
Philip Zelikow is the Executive Director of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States, better known as the "9/11 Commission." He will speak about his work with the Commission.
Dr. Zelikow is also the Director of the Miller Center of Public Affairs and White Burkett Miller Professor of History at the University of Virginia. After serving in government with the Navy, the State Department, and the National Security Council, he taught at Harvard before assuming his present post in Virginia to direct the nation's largest research center on the American presidency. He was a member of the President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board and served as executive director of the National Commission on Federal Election Reform, chaired by former Presidents Carter and Ford, as well as the executive director of the Markle Foundation Task Force on National Security in the Information Age.
Zelikow's books include The Kennedy Tapes (with Ernest May), Germany Unified and Europe Transformed (with Condoleezza Rice), and the rewritten Essence of Decision (with Graham Allison). Zelikow has also been the Director of the Aspen Strategy Group, a policy program of the Aspen Institute.
"CISAC receives Department of Homeland Security contract for research on organizational learning for terrorism response
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has awarded a 15-month $1.65-million contract to the Center for International Security and Cooperation (CISAC), Stanford Institute for International Studies. CISAC's program will be run as part of a joint project with the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) in Monterey.
CISAC co-director and professor of political science Scott Sagan and former co-director and professor emeritus (research) in the School of Engineering Michael May are the Stanford co-principal investigators of the new program.
CISAC's portion of the project entails a homeland security seminar and fellowship program, which will bring eight research fellows to campus in 2004-05. Fellows will join CISAC and other faculty to conduct research on some of the most daunting issues confronting the homeland security mission, such as how national and local agencies can learn to cooperate quickly and effectively and how they can learn from past emergencies, real and simulated. CISAC will undertake in-depth scholarly research that can help inform DHS efforts to improve the design and evaluation of future terrorism exercises of national and local response systems.
Scholars will study diverse approaches to learning--and failing to learn--from emergencies, including those of armed forces, medical emergency rooms, police and fire departments. Researchers will also investigate how government organizations can stay ahead of potential attackers in the "competitive learning" situation that terrorism presents--one in which terrorists and law enforcement officials alike try to learn from vulnerabilities exposed in public emergencies.
The DHS research contract resulted in part from CISAC's observation of the spring 2003 State Department-DHS sponsored full-scale exercise called TOP OFFICIALS-2 (TOPOFF-2), designed to prepare national, state and local officials to respond to potential terrorist attacks within the US. CISAC led 11 Stanford scholars in observing and analyzing the exercise involving officials from 25 federal, state, and local agencies. DHS Secretary Tom Ridge received a briefing of CISAC's findings, prepared under May's direction as principal investigator.
Lynn Eden, CISAC associate director for research, will manage Stanford's participation in the new project and mentor the homeland security fellows. Mariano-Florentino Cuellar, assistant professor of law at Stanford, will contribute research on how judicial review processes affect responses to terrorism. Dean Wilkening, director of CISAC's science program, will model uncertainties in biological weapons use, such as effects caused by different exposure rates and different doses of contaminants like anthrax.

After 9-11, a tearful black woman at the Toronto Inquiry said, "Now, you know, we are all "dispensable now." We are all oppressed- some more than others; those who can must stand up for those cannot.

SOLVING ' '9/11'
A PEOPLE'S GRAND JURY
at THEATER ARTAUD in SAN FRANCISCO
Saturday, November 6, 7:00--11:00 p.m.
Theater Artaud, 450 Florida, San Francisco, CA 94110
Presentation of Evidence on the Crimes of September 11, 2001 by Prosecuting Researchers
RALPH SCHOENMAN, MICHAEL DIETRICK, JIM HOFFMAN and DON PAUL
Discussion and Deliberations and Possible Indictments of Leading Suspects by Public Grand Jury
WHY: Need for a True Accounting of the Most Consequential Crimes of Our TimeAs shown by the huge response to movies such as "Fahrenheit 911" and by Democrat and Republican candidates' promises to increase the " 'War on Terror' ", the events of September 11, 2001 continue to be a tremendous concern for the people of the United State and the world.
As yet, however, Government investigations--in particular The 9/11 Commission Report--and mass-media reports--such as PBS' "Why the Towers Fell"--have failed to address major facts of the " 'Attack on America' " or to question huge inconsistencies in official accounts.
A Public Grand Jury is therefore needed. Several researchers will present slide-show findings about key aspects of the 9/11/01 crimes. Ralph Schoenman, an organizer with Bertrand Russell of the Vietnam War Crimes Tribunal, will relate ties betweeen the supposed hijackers and U. S. Government agencies.
Pilot Michael Dietrick will detail inconsistencies in the fatal airliners' supposed flight-paths and the supposed U. S. military response.
Computer-scientist Jim Hoffman will prove that the World Trade Center's Building 7 and Twin Towers must have been demolished.
Author Don Paul will look at capabilities of a Boeing 757-200 and look at damage to the Pentagon and detail who has most profited from the 9/11/01 destruction and from the ensuing " "War on Terror' ".The roles of ten Leading Suspects (Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, financier David Rockefeller, Blackstone Group Chairman Peter G. Peterson, NORAD General Ralph Eberhardt, then-Brigadier General Montague Winfield, former FEMA Director Joe Allbaugh, developer Larry Silverstein, former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, and reporter Judith Miller) on, before and afer 9/11/01 will be examined.
Then the Public Grand Jury will discuss, deliberate, and decide who of the above deserve indictment.
Join us for a breakthrough proceeding! $5--20 sliding-scale (no one turned away)

A Radically Different World View Is Possible
The Gift Economy Inside and Outside of Patriarchal Capitalism
NOVEMBER 13-14, 2004
Clark County Library
1401 East Flamingo Road,
Las Vegas, NevadaPeople from across the U.S. are coming to hear international women speakers discuss a different point of view, one that will offset the negative and exploitative mentality of our times, while encouraging non violent activism to change the global Patriarchal Capitalist system. Proposing to unite the women's movement, the movement of indigenous peoples for social change, the movement against domestic violence, the movement for alternative spiritualities and many others with the anti nuclear and peace movements, the gift paradigm envisions total and long lasting social change stemming from an economic and cultural model based on women's practice.
Organized and sponsored by The Center for the Study of the Gift Economy, Austin, Texas.
I spoke on "Facing the Shadow of 9-11," and by chance had the opportunity to give my paper to the presidents of ABC, CBS, NBC the next day, when they spoke at Stanford on the 2004 Election and I questioned them on 9-11.

136 Taylor St., San Francisco for our next Conscious Sound Collective event.I'll miss it- so just have the plan for this event- check the website for details! Chris wrote to me- I have the Solace International folks coming in [check 'em out at www.solaceinternational.org], to do a short slide show of their work in Afghanistan and to set up a market for the crafts they've been importing back. Proceeds go to building schools in Afghanistan, the nation with the worst literacy rate in the world [go figure, with the globe's superpowers tearing apart their country]. Oh...those are the proceeds from their sales. The event will be free to the public, of course.
Haven't settled on a film yet, thinking about "Osama," but it's hardly a "feel good." Would love to have you speak. My initial theme was "what to do now--post election." So many of my friends and comrades are/were seriously depressed after investing so much time and energy into the Kerry campaign. I've been assuaging their fears with the iconoclastic concept that Bush's re-theftelection is the best thing for us. He has that certain way of stirring up that old-fashioned "get involved in your democracy" feelings.
As I believe that 9-11 Truth will be catalyst for toppling the evil empire, and not just the Bush Dynasty, I am still devoted to spreading the word...
Verifygra Rally, Thursday, January 6th
outside of Senator Barbara Boxer's San Francisco office.
The rally will be from from 12:00 Noon to 1:30 pm at 1700 Montgomery St, near Chestnut and Embarcadero.Publicity materials state that VERIFYGRA was "tested and proven effective in Ukraine --- and now available in the United States" They are encouraging people to ask John Kerry and other Senators to get on Verifygra and stand up against the inadequate recount in Ohio, and ultimately, to refuse to certify the election on January 6th.
*Although our focus is 9-11, we need to realize that these guys who pulled 9-11,and helped cover it up, stole not one, but two elections- and we shouldn't let them get away with it."

Presented by Erin McCann
The mainstream media is whitewashing and lying about what really happened on September 11th 2001. This film is shaking the foundations of Washington D.C. as the definitive film on what really happened on September 11th and who stands to gain. The US government needed a crisis to convince the people to willingly give up their liberty in exchange for safety. Now the painful facts are in. The dark forces of global government are funding, training, and protecting terrorist networks worldwide. This Alex Jones’ film documents the ruthless history of governments orchestrating terrorist attacks against their own people to scare them into total submission. In this brutal expose you will witness the birth of a global police state that surpasses Orwell’s nighmarish vision. It’s all here: the history of government-sponsored terrorism, the modern implementation of fear-based control and, most frightening of all, the New World Order’s future plans. This is one film you cannot afford to ignore. The future of free people everywhere is at stake.

5:30 p.m., Program | Club Office, 595 Market St, 2nd floor, San Francisco
FREE EVENT
THE 9/11 COMMISSION REPORT
(For the Commonwealth Club and the Public)
We'll discuss 2004's most prominent release, by the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States. Nominated for the National Book Award, The 9/11 Commission Report has been widely hailed as "a government document written by committee that miraculously reads like an international espionage thriller." As a reminder, this is a book discussion group; the authors will NOT be present.Program Chair: Howard Crane
- Premiering- The 9/11 News Special You Never Saw
March 10, 2005 at the Grand Lake Theatre, Oakland
Followed by a dialogue with Producer- Barrie Zwicker (Latest article on Barrie), Tickets $10, available at the door and at local bookstores
with expert on international terrorism, historian, author of 9-11 Synthetic Terror: Made in USA,
Webster G. Tarpley (presentation at the International Inquiries into 9-11);
Director of Project Censored, Peter Phillips (Latest article by Peter)
Investigative Researcher- Michael Kane (latest article by Michael);
the press & the publicBarrie Zwicker was the first mainstream television journalist to deeply examine the official 9-11 story; he was director of the Toronto International Citizens’ Inquiry into 9-11. In the documentary, Zwicker analyzes the use of fear to unnerve the public, and deconstructs the so-called “war on terror.” He examines in depth the failure of the military on 9/11, and George Bush’s highly inappropriate behavior on that day. He finds the 9/11 Commission Report to be a cover-up operation. Throughout the film, he analyzes the role of mainstream media in keeping the public misinformed. (The great comedian,Swami Beyondananda, will be in charge of film breaks; humor being the best fortifier for facing painful truths). These events are especially designed to encourage the press to write and speak about the most censored questions and truths of our times, and to participate in the public dialogue which will explore these questions and more:
Why did Bush and Cheney limit the investigation? A Benefit for the Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance
Why were interceptor jets late, slow, and ineffectual?
What explains Bush's actions and inactions on 9/11?
Why was evidence removed or kept from investigators?
Who benefited? Why the media silence? What can we do?

NATIONAL TEACH-IN ON IRAQ: How Can We End This War?
Mission High School,
3750 18th Street (at Dolores),
San Francisco.Two years after the U.S. invasion of Iraq, the country continues to bleed and suffer. The death toll soars on all sides and especially among civilians. The cost of the war mounts daily as vital services are cut at home. Many questions remain. Join people throughout the country as we consider these issues and others at teach-ins in San Francisco, Washington, DC, and Ann Arbor, marking the 40th anniversary of the first Vietnam War teach-in in 1965.

- The Arrogance of Power-
Being American After 9/11
Fredricksburg, Virginia, April 1, 2, & 3
An academic conference,sessions will be held on the campus of the University of Mary Washington.
Being American After September 11th
September 11th polarized the U.S. and the world in ways still being felt, though it should strike us as curious that there has never even been any pretension to, or place for, neutrality on the subject within the United States. Americans have ranged from vocal, patriotic support for the silent, yet visible, endorsement of the president’s policies to a hand-wringing uncertainty about how to proceed in a world that is, we are told, “fundamentally changed.” By invoking emblems such as Hitler, Nazi Germany, and the Axis of Evil, advocates for a “war on terrorism” have effectively stalled any patient or complex discussion of that day or its significance in forging a national identity. The rhetoric of “national security” has been used to advance the war campaign in Iraq, while civil liberties continue to diminish at home. By virtue of the “Patriot Act” virtually suspended have been basic civil rights afforded by the U.S. Constitution and human rights (combatant and otherwise) secured by the Third Geneva Convention—most notably, habeas corpus and due process; President Bush has recently requested that Congress extend the term and provisions of the Patriot Act. The U.S. government is not entirely at fault, however. If the style of this particular political administration is, as Mikhail Bakhtin would have described it, intensely “monologic,” to what degree does the enthusiastic (and pathic) cooperation of the people of the U.S. contribute to this dynamic? In a three-day conference to be held in the spring of 2005 at the University of Mary Washington (formerly Mary Washington College) in Fredericksburg, Virginia, we want to talk about the intellectual, social, and cultural origins of what “being American” means at the present hour. It is central to our hypothesis that “being American” is different after the Cold War and still more so after September 11th. Whether those differences are merely quantitative or are, in fact, qualitative remains a subject for further discussion.
Details posted at http://www.arroganceofpower.net/. Keynote speakers include Ralph Nader.
Celebration/Strategizing Our Next Move The Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance will celebrate the success of the premieres of "The 9-11 News Special You Never Saw- The Great Conspiracy" and the publication of a 9/11 Cover Story in the San Francisco Bay Guardian and assess where we are, and where we want to go, and how to get there.
April 2, 2005- Oakland Hills, beginning at 10:00 a.m. with the videos, strategizing begins at 3:00 p.m., closing at 6:00 p.m.
The videos- "A Force More Powerful" and "Bringing Down a Dictator" I had originally wanted to share with the group and possibly screen on March 11th at the War Memorial Building, they look at the non-violent resistance movements of the past two centuries, because I think we have a lot to learn from them.Janette is willing to host the party at her home, and to make it easier for her, please R.S.V.P.. Mail to janette007@sbcglobal.net. She can also give detailed directions to those who didn't help with the mailing.
This is a potluck, so please bring a dish or beverages to share.
Our "community" extends well beyond the bounds of the Bay Area, and we can nurture and encourage and solicit the gifts of people well beyond our immediate circle. "Community" itself means "the free exchange of gifts" and each of us has some gift, skill, talent, resource, insight to offer. Everyone is encouraged to bring your best ideas, dreams, inspirations, energy to the gathering and to remember that-
"Together we can do what none of us could do alone."Saturday Evening at 7:30 p.m. our dear Swami Beyondananda is doing a show in San Francisco and we could all migrate over to SF to join him. To RSVP to go with the group- Mail to cbrouillet@igc.org. More details posted at the Swami's website- www.wakeuplaughing.com
Spend All Fools’ Weekend With a Fooly-Realized Master --
Swami Beyondananda If you’re starting to despair
that our human foolishness just isn’t funny anymore,
Swami Beyondananda will help you change your mind.
If you live in the Bay Area,
you have three chances to make one on April 1st, 2nd and 3rd.Santa Cruz, Friday April 1st
On April Fools Day itself --
Friday evening, April 1st
the Swami will be doing two shows at the Cayuga Vault in Santa Cruz
with his “musical posse,” RatPack Kirtan.
If you can imagine Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Sammy Davis, Jr. tunes
done in traditional East Indian style --
then you might not need to come hear this performance
which defies the imagination.
But if you’re like most people,
you can’t really imagine it,
so you need to be there as Vegas meets the Vedas.
Book your tickets early --
just a total of 200 seats for both performances.
Remember, if you miss it
-- you weren’t there.
Cayuga Vault is at 1100 Soquel at Cayuga
(between Branciforte and Seabright),
and show times are 7 and 9 p.m.
Tickets are just $12 in advance,
$15 at the door
and can be purchased at Streetlight Records,
939 Pacific, (831) 421-9200.San Francisco, Saturday April 2nd
As a follow up,
the Swami will be flying solo on Saturday night
at Unity Christ Church of San Francisco,
where he will be launching this year’s Wake Up Laughing tour.
“Why laugh?” he asks rhetorically.
“Because,” he answers rhetorically, “there’s definitely something funny going on.”
In addition to the laughter,
there will be beauty too in the form of Trudy’s Scarves,
back by popular demand!
Unity Christ Church of San Francisco is located at 2690 Ocean,
at the northeast corner of 19th Avenue.
Show starts at 7:30,
tickets are $18 in advance and $22 at the door.
For ticket info or to reserve yours,
call 415-566-4122.San Jose, Sunday April 3rd
On Sunday morning,
Swami’s alter ego Steve Bhaerman
will offer his entertaining and inspiring talk
on “Comedy As a Healing Art”
at Unity of Silicon Valley.
Sunday services are held at 10 a.m.
at Fremont High School,
1279 Sunnyvale-Saratoga Road.
Sunnyvale, CA 94087.
The church phone is (408) 794-2222.

The Power of Nightmares- The Rise of the Politics of Fear
Friday, June 10 - Thursday, June 15
At the Roxie Cinema
3117 16th St. (at Valencia), San Francisco
Showtimes: Nightly at 7:00pm with additional Wed, Sat & Sun matinees at (12:00 noon) & 3:30.Part of the SF Indie Fest presents this uncut, BBC series of documentary films (3 one hour films) about how fear has come to dominate politics not only in America, but throughout the world, and how much of that fear is based on illusion. The films tell the story of the rise of today’s nightmare vision of a hidden, organized network of terror and show clearly how much of that threat has been distorted and exaggerated by politicians. In an age disillusioned with optimistic political visions of the future, politicians have stumbled on a new force that can restore their power and authority, the fear of a hidden and organized web of evil which they can protect their people from. These films show how that fantasy was created, and why, by telling an epic story that starts in America in 1949 and ends in the present day. At the heart of the story are two groups, the American Neoconservatives and the Radical Islamists. Both these groups were idealists born out of the failure of the post-war liberal optimism, and both had very similar explanations for why that failure had occurred. Both groups did change the world, but not in the way either intended. Their actions over the last thirty years have led to today’s strange fantasy of fear which has spread through all levels of government, the security services and the international media. A fantasy that no-one questions because those with the darkest nightmares have become the most powerful. England. 2004.
Runningtime: 180 minutes. ADMISSION=$10.00.

"We will need to talk about what we want to organize for late September action calls (for one, see unitedforpeace.org). In advance, think about what you and your organization, if you represent one, would put time, energy and money towards seeing happen sometime in or around September 24 to 26.
"There will also be something of progress to report on the election of a new steering committee, ever longer overdue. Think if you or someone in your group (if you're in one, again) is looking for a challenging but worthwhile organizing opportunity.
"There are other action calls that people will bring to inform about too, especially if you bring one.
"Other agenda items can be sent to the list or to me, Jim Haber. If I had more time, the agenda would be on the website.
You wanna work on our website?See you Tuesday, or sometime, or just keep tuning in.

Northern California 9-11 Truth Alliance www.sf911truth.org
Northern California 9-11 Truth Alliance emerged from challenging the official narrative of 9-11 and questioning the "War on Terrorism." From rallies, protests, educational films, conferences, actions, television programs, radio programs, art, the group has sought to overcome the censorship of the mainstream and independent press to get out the basic facts about 9-11, challenging a well documented number of lies, and a cover-up on the part of the government. The Deception Dollars, a cooperative effort on the part of activists, artist Blaine Machan, and various websites, have been very popular and helped to birth a 9-11 Truth Movement. At the recent National Conference on Media Reform, 9-11 truth activists converged to bypass traditional gatekeepers with information passing out hundreds of DVDs and CDs of David Ray Griffin's talk- The American Empire and 9-11 which was broadcast on C-Span. This chaordic group, has developed a cooperative network of film-makers, researchers, activists, journalists to challenge the heart of the biggest myth of this century, and challenge the legitimacy of the Empire's war for global domination.

Event Contact: Kyle F. Hence, 401-935-7715

Each author will speak and respond to questions for an hour beginning with Nafeez Ahmed. Presentations will be followed by a panel discussion and opportunity for further questions.
Congressional Co-sponsor Staff Contact: John Judge 202-225-1605- July 22nd Congressional Briefing:
The 9/11 Commission Report One Year Later A Citizens' Response - Did They Get It Right
Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-GA) will host a full-day briefing, co-sponsored by Rep. Raúl Grijalva (D-AZ), and other sponsors, for Members of Congress and their staffs in the Caucus Room, Cannon House Office Building, Room 345, Independence Ave. & First Street SE, from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm.
One year after the release of the 9/11 Commission Final Report many questions about what transpired on September 11, 2001 and who should be held accountable still remain unanswered. Serious flaws and omissions in the Report have been addressed by whistleblowers and academics. Well known researchers and authors have put the events of that day into historical perspective, and have suggested possible alternatives to the recommendations of the 9/11 Commission regarding intelligence reform, domestic and foreign policy. The hard evidence has yet to be properly evaluated, and points to the need for full transparency, release of information, and continued probative investigations to have an effective, democratic response to the crisis that confronts all of us.
Family members of the victims of 9/11 will present a "Report Card" to address their still unanswered questions about the events of 9/11 and the lack of accountability for the security and intelligence failures that may have allowed these events to happen. Other experts will speak to the flaws in the 9/11 Commission's process, including conflicts of interest, lack of transparency, investigative rigor and public input, and the many whistleblowers ignored by the Commission.
One panel of experts will explore the omissions and errors in the Commission's Final Report, including the timeline of NORAD/FAA and P-56 defense responses that day, the suspects and plot, the background of Al Qaeda and bin Laden, the involvement of other countries, the obstruction of investigations by the FBI and CIA, and foreknowledge and forewarnings prior to the attacks. Another panel will place 9/11 into historical perspective and look at the flawed assumptions that misled the Commission's work, including the politics of illegal drugs, oil investments, covert operations and terrorism, as well as past covert operations like Contragate and the rise of the neo-conservatives and their agenda.
The last half of the day will be a critical examination by experts of the Commission¹s recommendations concerning domestic and foreign policy and intelligence reforms, suggesting other alternatives and policies that could lead to real security and preserve civil liberties and democracy. Rep. McKinney will also address the need for further investigation and opening the evidence for public scrutiny. A list of confirmed speakers so for includes:

In San Francisco there will be a rally Saturday, September 24th, Gather at 11 am in Dolores Park, After that rally- there is a march to Jefferson Park (Turk and Laguna) in San Francisco; it is a great outreach opportunity to the anti-war movement. Unfortunately, it might rain on Saturday. We do have picket signs, banners, handouts, and it would be good to have a 9-11 contingent- since we all learned so many great chants at our last rally.SF wwebsite on the rally/march http://www.actionsf.org/#local14

The Petrocollapse Conference Petrocollapse: Social Isolation or Solidarity?
October 5, 2005, 9 am to 5 pm, New York
As oil prices rise and crude oil supplies and refined products strain to keep up with demand, as Hurricane Katrina wreaks havoc on the production infrastructure as well as on a devastated population, the isse of Peak Oil is finally becoming acknowledged in the mainstream news.
www.petrocollapse.orgHowever, the complete story is still suppressed, misunderstandings abound even among students of peak oil and the public remains in the dark about the vast array of consequences of this looming crisis. Dishonest reporting by OPEC countries and major oil companies have contributed to the illusion that there is sufficient time before we "run out of oil" to transition to a "solution", whether it be cold fusion, hydrogen, renewables or some combination of the above.
In fact, some dozen significant oil producing countries are past their peak in extraction and it is possible that world Peak has already arrived (this cannot be conclusively determined until after the fact). The sudden effects of shortage are likely to hit the global economy within the next three years, possibly even as early as this winter.

"September Surprise, October Surprise:
Everything You Think You Know About 9/11 Is Wrong --
at Round Table Pizza Banquet Room on 2nd Floor
The San Francisco Tesla Society Presents a free lecture featuring Barbara Honegger
Sunday, October 9, 2001 1 p.m. - 5 p.m.
5160 Geary Blvd. (at 16th Ave.)
San Francisco, California
Barbara Honegger is a senior military affairs journalist. Her talk will compliment Jim Hoffman's September presentation and feature a scientific investigation / data analysis of the 9/11 Pentagon attacks. Honegger was the first to expose the meaning and central importance of the multiple-hijack-scenario anti-terror emergency response exercises and wargames being conducted by the Bush Administration on Sept. 11th. Her 9/11 contributions are prominently credited and featured in "Crossing the Rubicon" by Michael Ruppert and "Inside Job" by Jim Marrs.
Ms. Honegger served as a White House Policy Analyst in the 1980's and was the first public resignation of conscience from the Reagan-Bush Administration. She is the author of October Surprise, the first book to document the secret deal between the 1980 Reagan-Bush Campaign and the radical Islamist Khomeini regime to delay the release of the U.S. hostages in Iran until after the 1981 presidential inauguration of Ronald Reagan. Exposure of the "October Surprise" ignited a major Congressional investigation. Ms. Honegger earned the first accredited U.S. graduate degree in Consciousness Studies/Experimental Parapsychology, from John F. Kennedy University (1981). She holds a B.A. in Communications/Honors Writing from Stanford University (1969), with expertise in the neuropsychology of human and nonhuman primate communication.

Listen, Ring, Scream - 100,000 Bells will Toll Lytton Plaza, Wednesday, October 26, 2005, 10 am - 2:20 pm
Wednesday, October 26th is the fourth anniversary of the Listening Project, a weekly event, where questions have been raised about September 11th, the government’s response, how to defuse terrorism, and how to create a safer, better world for all children; the questions remain the same, but the answers have changed over time. This Wednesday, in Palo Alto’s Lytton Plaza, in addition to listening, from 10 am until 2:20 pm, a bell will be rung every minute, in memory of the 100,000 Iraqi victims of the current war. There will also be a microphone, and the opportunity to scream or speak loudly, on behalf of the Pakistani victims of the most deadly earthquake in modern times.
Voices for Creative Nonviolence and Justice Not Vengeance have called for bell-ringing ceremonies to grieve and protest the deaths of Iraqis in the war and occupation. Bells will be rung in the US, the U.K. and Switzerland. Locally, bells will also be rung in Oakland, October 25th, in San Francisco on October 27th, and on October 28th in Marin. As people opposed to war, we act to end the silence about the suffering and death in Iraq and to publicly unlock the grief that it has caused in our communities. 100 communities, each ringing a bell 1,000 times, would equal 100,000 rings, the estimated death toll of Iraqi civilians in the Lancet study.
Scream for those in Pakistan. 100,000 people may perish, if they do not receive help soon, before the winter sets in. The death toll continues to rise between 75,000 and 80,000 officially, with over 3 million people facing the winter homeless. The international community has been slow to respond to the crisis.
Umair Khan wrote:
“Scream.” “Spare a scream for the 100,000 dead and 3 million homeless, muted out of world media.
“Unmourned by the news media, unmarked by the world, Saturday October 22 was the two week anniversary of the 7.6 magnitude earthquake in Pakistan, India, and Kashmir. An estimated 100,000 have been killed and, of the 3 million made homeless, at least another 100,000 are in high peril as winter rolls down from nearby K-2. If they perish, they would surely have been suffocated by the silent air waves.
“For the 3 million homeless the bell tolls noiselessly. Beyond Pakistan's national news media, their coverage is a silent movie playing out on inside pages (if at all). Four more weeks of radio (and print and TV) silence and the region will become as quiet and stone cold as the news media. The news folks whose attention to the tragedy has declined as swiftly as the deaths have mounted, may finally get to report a "frozen" death toll. In four weeks, winter too will white-out the survivors.
“Intense and swift and whole-hearted as the response has been among the compassionate and the aware, it has been far too noiseless. For Pakistanis, for Kashmiris, for South Asians, for Asians, for humans and for humanity everywhere, this is not the time for whispered tears, silent if ardent prayers, mumbled grumblings, and soundless emails.
“This is the time to scream.
“Not in despair, or panic, or anger. But in recognition and in resonance. This is the time to broadcast the unbroadcasted. And this time expires in 4 weeks. There will be little point to being heard after that.
“There have been No vigils to mark the disaster... No minute of silence at 8:51am. No protest march (silent or loud) against NATO's refusal to airlift the injured. No sit-ins to demand of governments the desperately needed helicopters, tents, medicine, monetary aid. And no demonstrations in front of the oblivious offices of world media.” (This is an excerpt from a larger article posted at-http://www.chowk.com/show_article.cgi?aid=00005873&channel=gulberg)

World Can't Wait- Drive Out the Bush Regime Mobilization Bay Area Convergence- Noon Civic Center
Wednesday, November 2, 2005
Northern california 9-11 Truth Alliance has endorsed this, although somehow this organization/network/budding movement somehow hasn't formally acknowledged that the foundation of the crumbling empire rests on the "myth/official 9-11 story" which we continue to challenge. We'll be at the Civic Center Plaza at Noon, adding our voice to the many calling for an end to the criminal Bush Regime (just hope he isn't replaced by anything worse...) and militarism which depends upon deception, violence, state-sponsored terrorism.

War Crimes Tribunal on Colin Powell Thursday, November 10, 2005
1:30 pm- 5:30 pm
Conference Room A & B Campus Center
De Anza College, 21250 Stevens Creek Blvd. Cupertino
Students for Justice, a DeAnza College student organization and their faculty advisers will hold a War Crimes Tribunal for former Secretary of State, Colin Powell, on Thursday, November 10, 2005, in the Campus Center, Conference Rooms A& B on the campus of DeAnza College, in Cupertino, California, from 1:30-5pm. The War Crimes Tribunal will be one of several forms of protest by campus and community groups during the period of November 9-11, the three evenings on which Mr. Powell is scheduled to speak at the Flint Center, in the Celebrity Forum Series.
Colin Powell’s critical role in the Bush Administration’s War in Iraq will be examined by a panel of presenters. The scholars, activists, and veterans taking part in the Tribunal will conduct an inquiry into Powell’s responsibilities and complicity in the destruction of Iraqi society since 2003, the ongoing occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan, the overthrow of President Jean Bertrand Aristide in Haiti, in 2004, the Gulf War in 1991, the ongoing U.S. support for the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian lands, the Iran-Contra Scandal, legal and illegal support for the Contras in Nicaragua, the Vietnam War, and the deaths, disability, and exposure of U.S. veterans and peoples of Iraq, Afghanistan, and the former Yugoslavia to toxic chemicals and depleted uranium munitions. All of the above policies have featured widespread accusations of war crimes, violations of international law, and crimes against humanity by human rights organizations and other critics in the U.S. and throughout the world.
In the spirit of the Bertrand Russell/ International War Crimes Tribunal of the U.S. war in Vietnam in 1966, the World Tribunal on Iraq, in New York in 2004, and In Istanbul, Turkey in June, 2005, and the Truth and Reconciliation Commissions in South Africa 1995-‘98, in El Salvador, in 1992-’93 and in East Timor, 2000-2005, the War Crimes Tribunal of Colin Powell at DeAnza College will attempt to make U.S. government officials accountable for their repeated and blatant violations of international law in the conduct of war, the overthrow of foreign governments, military occupations of foreign lands, covert and illegal operations to assist others involved in related activities, disinformation and cover-ups of these actions, and the violations of the civil rights of U.S. veterans involved in these actions.
Former Secretary of State Colin Powell is often viewed as an opponent of war, or in his own words, a “reluctant soldier.” He was widely viewed as an independent and reasonable voice within the Bush Administration, in which the excesses of the neo-conservatives associated with the Project for a New American Century (Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowicz, Lewis Libby, Richard Perle) led the U.S. into the foreign policy debacle of the Iraq War and the atrocities of widespread deaths of civilians and routine torture of prisoners and combatants in Iraq, Afghanistan and Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. The War Crimes Tribunal will critically examine Powell’s role in these and other controversial U.S. military operations over several decades, including his speech at the U.N. in February, 2003, which made the case for war against Iraq, and his direct role in the overthrow of the elected President of Haiti in 2004.
Presenters will include Dr. Wendy White, of the Humanities faculty of DeAnza College, Dr. Greg Druehl, of the Political Science faculty, who will defend Powell’s record, Dr. Ayad al-Qazzaz, of the Sociology faculty of California State University, Sacramento, who will discuss the war in Iraq, Pierre LaBossiere, founder of the Haiti Action Network, Chuong Chung, of the faculty of City College of San Francisco and DeAnza College, who will discuss Powell’s actions in the Vietnam War, Joyce Riley, former captain in the United States Air Force Reserve and spokesperson for the American Gulf War Veterans Association, and Ann Wright, a decorated 26-year veteran of the U.S. Army and former U.S. diplomat in Mongolia, who resigned in protest of the U.S. War in Iraq. Representatives of Iraq Veterans for Peace, Veterans for Peace, Military Families Speak Out, and Gold Star Families for Peace will also address the Tribunal.
Students and faculty will also sponsor a range of other political protests of Powell’s role in the U.S. War in Iraq. Students for Justice will hold a speak-out at the Campus Center Plaza at 12:30pm, on Wednesday, Nov. 9 and a march and protest of Powell’s first speech will begin at 6pm on Wednesday evening, November 9. Protests of Powell’s second appearance will occur at 7pm on Thursday, November 10. Religious and political protests will be organized on Friday afternoon and evening before Powell’s third appearance, on November 11, by students and community groups. A peace camp and various civil disobedience actions will take place throughout the three days sponsored by a wide range of students and Bay Area anti-war organizations. (Northern california 9-11 Truth Alliance will be tabling Thursday.)

Brainstorming, Accessment, Proposals, Strategy, Media Action Plan
We hope to be joined by Steve Bhaerman (Swami Beyondananda) and Fred Burks, webmaster for www.wanttoknow.info. We welcome all 9-11 Truth Activists, and our allies to participate in drawing forth our collective wisdom, talents and resources, to develop the best possible strategy to help us with our mission-
Brainstorming/Accessment in the morning. Topics of discussion: How Running for Office Can Help/Harm our Isssue, How We Can Unify the Peace and Justice Movements with the Truth Movement. Proposals/Strategy beginning at noon/after working with Susan- we will conclude our strategy/planning with a media action plan.
" ... to seek and disseminate truths about the terrible crimes committed on September 11, 2001, exposing gaps and deceptions in the official story, and to thus inspire more eyewitness revelations, truthful media coverage, and a movement that will bring the responsible criminals to justice and eliminate governmental and corporate policies that enable criminal elements to commit such acts."
On Sunday, we will be joined from 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm by Susan Strong, from the Metaphor Project. Susan has worked with us before (Between the SF International inquiry and the Toronto Inquiry) to help us find the most effective language to engage the press and public and reframe our issue, on our terms. The heart of our campaign will be how we convey our message. We welcome all creative, brilliant, sensitive, observant, dedicated, honest, caring, willing people to participate in a very focused manner for this period of time.
People can also do some homework and bring whatever they have come up with to the group. Check out Susan's website- particularly American Story Elements and American Metaphor Sources Here is also something Susan sent- which I'll pass out at the meeting on Thursday night-
SPEAKING AMERICAN (IN A NUTSHELL)
Framing our issues honestly and clearly to reach our chosen audience is vital now. Deciding what values underlie our position about an issue is essential. To be truly effective, we must do more. We need to understand how our own message is part of a story integral to the ideal AMERICAN VISION. That vision is our best national story of who we are as a people, who we want to be, and the ways we get there—the values and ideas embedded in our Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights. It’s much more than actual American history, past or present. The ideal AMERICAN VISION is a nation that stands for equality, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. From our beginnings, this vision has been used by progressive activists to expand the expression of those values in American life. It’s our turn now.
Here are some simple steps you can take for success in framing your messages for mainstream Americans:
STEP 1. Be clear about who your specific audience is.
STEP 2. Think about how your audience sees your issue now. If possible, ask them questions directly or do polling.
STEP 3. Consider how your audience is feeling and reacting now re your issue. Be ready to acknowledge their feelings at the beginning of your message.
STEP 4. Decide to speak “American” by using simple language, avoiding the following:
Long, abstract, multisyllabic words
lots of reasons, facts, and statistics at the beginning of your communication
complex arguments and explanations at the beginning of your communication
historical analysis at the beginning of your communication
attacking America or Americans or the flag by name or implication.STEP 5. The next step in speaking American is arranging your message as a story of potentially successful problem solving. Recognize that mainstream Americans want answers to the following practical questions:
What's the problem?
What will work to solve it?
What should we do now?
What should we do next?
Who is "we"?STEP 6. Develop your own message as answers to these questions, following the simple language rules given in STEP 4 above. Remember that establishing rapport with your audience includes referring to “seeing,” “hearing,” and “feeling” these problems and their solutions, so that people of all learning styles will feel included.
STEP 7. The next step in speaking American is picking out common American Vision words, phrases, metaphors, and images (frames) appropriate for your message. These frames are cognitive shorthand. For example, if you mention “level the playing field” in your message, you connect to a big piece of the American ideal of fairness in a graphic way. (See note at the end of this nutshell for longer examples.*)
· To find American Vision frames that will work with your message, review the Elements of the American Story list and the American Metaphor Categories list found at www.metaphorproject.org. These lists contain just enough examples of common “American Vision” ideas and language to get you started. (Though not all fit a progressive vision or the present moment, the majority do.) Most adult Americans have an intuitive knowledge of what both our shared American Story and American Vision are and what specific words, phrases, metaphors or images invoke it. You may brainstorm your own additions to these lists with confidence.
Pick out the words, phrases, images and metaphors that match both your values, message, and your audience in an empowering way.
STEP 8. Frame (express) your message, using the “American Vision” words, phrases, metaphors, and images you have identified. Some examples of this kind of framing include: “Government must be an honest referee when it comes to. . . .” or “we need to renew the American promise of. . .” or “We must meet the new challenges of the 21st century in new ways. . .”
STEP 9. Check your newly framed message against the criteria for success and revise as needed.
STEP 10. Test your creations in the field, either informally or if you have access to the funding for it, professionally.
*Longer examples of American Vision framing:
· A brief sketch of Speaking American About Economic Justice:
-Include the “individual hope” aspect of the Horatio Alger or “individual responsibility” element from The MP American Story Elements list. Combine with some sports metaphor references like “leveling the play ing field, playing fair, honest referee, or guaranteeing equal access” from The MP American Metaphor Categories list.
-add some “Small Town Security “ and “American Dream ideas” (from the MP American Story Elements list) about cooperation and working together to make a message about cooperating to make America’s future bright for everyone.
For an even fuller example of how to start on this process, see the MP essay, “Speaking American About Economic Justice,” available in The Spin Project’s 2005 handbook, Words That Work: Messaging for Economic Justice, available for free download at http://spinproject.org/article.php?id=129, p. 9.
TIPS FOR USING YOUR CREATIONS DURING A CONVERSATION:
l. Start by asking your audience how they see the issue now, or introducing a question about a current topic that can lead to your subject: what do they think of a current book, movie, news item and so on? Listen well before you start speaking yourself.
2. Explain your own position with the carefully framed message elements you have created in advance.
3. If your conversation partner does not respond well, try a leading question that appears to be a tangent from the initial topic, but leads to new ground. For example: if the topic is preemptively attacking another country, ask, "How can we build greater international support for the United States?"

The New Pearl Harbor-Confronting the Evidence Tampa TheaterA Real Investigation into What Happened on 9/11
Dec. 7, videos screened on Dec. 8
711 Franklin Street
Tampa, Florida, 33602
What: Vice President Dick Cheney and 24 other Bush officials and friends signed a call for a "New Pearl Harbor" as an excuse to invade Iraq in 1998. They said it would take "some catastrophic and catalyzing event, like a new Pearl Harbor." to convince the American People that we must invade Iraq to "project American Military Power". Time magazine called for "a unified Pearl Harbor sort of purple American fury." Jimmy Walter said, "September 11, 2001 will live in infamy as the day the US military failed to protect even itself, the Pentagon, and that Terrorists, whether they are inside or outside of the government have triumphed over American Freedoms! We must not let that victory stand! We must bring the real terrorists to justice by confronting the evidence!"
This is a real investigation about 1/ Why they ignored warning signs about terrorist attacks 2. Why they leak classified information to the media 3. Why they lied under oath and obstructed justice in an investigation about national security violations 4. Why they sent our country into war without an exit strategy and without a good reason 5. Why they created massive deficits while only cutting spending on social programs and veteran benefits 6. Why they filled vital government positions with political cronies, leading to death and disaster.

Wednesday, February 1st at 7 pm at the Humanist Hall in Oakland
"Painful Deceptions" is a video version of "Painful Questions" by Eric Hufschmid. This documentary provides an in depth analysis of the Twin Towers sctructure using a scientific approach as well as careful observation and simple common sense. Eric was the first one to bring the attention of the public to the mysterious collapse of Building 7, a 47-story building near the Twin Towers that disintegrated into dust in 7 seconds a few hours after the Towers fell. Eric points out that the same demolition crew was hired to clean up the rubble of the World Trade Center and the rubble of the Oklahoma city bombing which was another cover up and an inside job. Eric takes a very close look at the Pentagon crash and points out a number of obvious facts that make the official story fall apart.

This talk will look at the psychological resistances to such truths, so we can better overcome them. This talk will be shorter to allow more discussion time about examples each of us have of the types of resistance we have encountered in ourselves and others.(A three part multimedia series presented by Ken Jenkins).

"The Great Conspiracy" by Barrie Zwicker, a Canadian investigative journalist, is an excellent compilation of short news reports dealing with many different aspects of the attacks such as the airforce stand down (very powerful footage of NORAD's converations with the FAA), the contents of Building 7 (such as Enron files), Bush's reaction to the attacks as well as his resistance to an investigation and much much more. Barrie also gives a very insightful historical perspective where he points out many cases where governments had attacked their own people to blame it on somebody else as a pretext for war.

Part Three -9/11- Truth, Stolen Elections and Beyond: What's going on in our country and what can we do about it?
Wednesday, February 8th,
7 - 10 pm9/11 in Context: The Big Picture. Using the 9/11 truth issue as a touchstone, this discussion will look at the nature of the overall changes we are going through that include other such unsettling realities as the stolen elections, lies leading to war in Iraq, and the response by our government to Katrina. By seeing these in the context of a global awakening that we are all a part of, we can be more effective working on the specific issues that have the most leverage to facilitate this evolutionary process and thus create a better world.

at 7 pm at the Humanist Hall in Oakland"The Truth and Lies of 911" is a 2-hour presentation by Mike Ruppert, who used to be a narcotics investigator at the LA Police Department until he realized that the CIA was dealing drugs and arms. He was offered a nice sallary to keep his mouth shut, but they obviously underestimated Mike who instead became a whistle blower. They tried to threaten him, they even shot him, but he survived and didn't back down. Mike spent many years touring the country and exposing the CIA's drug dealings and other dirty secrets. Today Mike is justly considered the pioneer of the 911 truth movement. In his documentary Mike explains the connection between the CIA and Wall Street, Wall Street being a front, a "laundromat" for the CIA. Mike points out a connection between the put options on American and United Airlines and the CIA as well as many other incriminating facts. Mike is the author of "Crossing the Rubicon", the second best selling book after "The Kean Commission Report on 911".

Here's an opportunity for the Green Party and 9-11 Truth Activists to raise issues and questions to Congresswoman Eshoo, that she would rather avoid...
After marching on Eshoo’s office for years, I got so angry at her position on the most critical issues, that I accepted the suggestion to run against her on the Green Party ticket. Before doing so, however, I told her that if she would champion my issues, I would be her greatest supporter. No- she wouldn’t touch Impeachment (thinks change should happen via the ballot box- ignoring two stolen elections…) Truth? No- She believes the 9-11 Commission was bipartisan and thorough, ignoring ample evidence that it was the biggest cover-up sionce the Warren Report, deeply flawed- the official Report being a 580 page lie used to sell endless wars, the trashing of the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the construction of “Homeland Security,”the bogus “war on terrorism,”… Worse she co-sponsored The Intelligence Transformation Act which expanded and reorganized the CIA, which frankly should be abolished for all the harm that they have caused. She also would rather “tweak” the Patriot Act than allow it to die the death it deserves.

Wednesday, 7:30 pm at the Humanist Hall
390 27th Street, OaklandMarch 8th: "In Plane Site" by Dave Vonkleist of the Power Hour takes a close look at the footage of the planes crashing in to the towers. It appears that there is a mistle tied to the bottom of the plane, the planes are described by witnesses as not passenger planes. Dave takes a very close look at the Pentagon pictures pointing out many inconsistencies with the official story. The damage to the Pentagon was obviously not done by a plane. Interviews with firefighters and many other facts confirm controlled demolition of the Twin Towers. Gypsy, event organizer (Note- I personally do not recommend this film. I think it is deeply flawed.

"9/11 & 7/7" - lecture by Jaideep Singh
Thursday, March 9, 2006
7:00-9:00 pm
Badè Museum, Pacific School of Religion, 1798 Scenic Ave,
Berkeley, CA 94709PANA Institute presents:
A Public Voice Lecture by Jaideep Singh
9/11 & 7/7: A Cross-Atlantic Comparison of the Rising Tides of White and Christian Supremacy in the Wake of Terrorist Attacks
Employing the cataclysmic terrorist attacks in the United States (9/11/01) and the United Kingdom (7/7/05) as points of comparison and departure, this project seeks to paint a broad picture of the latest form of American Apartheid- in effect in the United States since the terrorist attacks of 2001. Moving to the United States, the paper utilizes recent illustrations from the lives of Muslim, South Asian, and particularly Sikh Americans, to trace the increasingly pervasive modern incarnations of intersecting white and Christian supremacy in the United States. In order to contextualize these communities' experiences, and explicate their representational significance, the remainder of the paper will interrogate how the nation's social and political environment informs the events conditioning the lives.
Jaideep Singh is a Ph.D. candidate in Comparative Ethnic Studies at the University of California, Berkeley. He is also the co-founder and managing director of the Sikh American Legal Defense and Education Fund (SALDEF), a Sikh American mediawatch and civil rights advocacy organization.In order to do this, the essay will ground the lived realities of these racially marked "others" through the following thematic lenses: the recent publication of derogatory cartoons of the Muslim prophet Mohammad in numerous Western media sources; the intense intrusion of religion into American politics; a similar incursion into high school science curriculum; the egregious violations of civil liberties by the state in the wake of the terrorist attacks; the pervasive, often racialized, anti-immigrant sentiment permeating large segments of the nation; and numerous instances of aggressive re-assertions of Christian dominance, through the perverse stratagem of claiming persecuted status. The presentation concludes with a vision of hope, highlighting positive efforts that have been made to counteract the rising tides of white and Christian supremacy in the United States, and pointing towards possible organizing strategies and objectives.
Premiere- 911 Guilt: The Proof is in your hands
March 9, 2006
7 p.m.
New College 777 Valencia Street, San Francisco
Two leading researchers into the crimes of 9/11/01, Jim Hoffman and Don Paul
(see 2002-2005 reviews below) offer conclusive evidence that the Twin Towers and World Trade Center Building 7 were subject to controlled demolitions, who profited from these indubitable demolitions, and why.
'The video is a great effort to get to the heart of the challenges we all face.
The showing will open with: 15 MINUTE OVERVIEW: 'ED ASNER'S '9/11 BRIEFING'
Part 1: 9/11 Guilt: The Proof is in Your Hands", Jim Hoffman systematically dismantles the excuses given by the government for collapse of three World Trade Center buildings. Then he clearly proves that these buildings fell due to controlled demolition.
Part 2: Don Paul convincingly reveals a cohesive argument for 9/11 fraud. He makes it difficult to go away from this video without knowing that 9/11 was a planned pretext for a corrupt agenda. Do we have probable cause to indict the individuals named? Without a doubt.' KEVIN RYAN, former Site Manager for Environmental Health Laboratories
'This documentary does an excellent job of connecting the dots about 9/11 and the possible political blueprint and financial reasons leading to that momentous event—detailed and chilling

March 29th: "Mike Ruppert at the Commomwealth Club" is a videotaped presentation by Mike Ruppert, who used to be a narcotics investigator at the LA Police Department until he realized that the CIA was dealing drugs and arms. He was offered a nice salary to keep his mouth shut, but they obviously underestimated Mike who instead became a whistle blower. They tried to threaten him, they even shot him, but he survived and didn't back down. Today Mike is justly considered the pioneer of the 911 truth movement. In this presentation Mike names Dick Cheney as the prime suspect in orchestrating the 911 attacks. He talks about the war game exercises that involved fake plane highjackings that Cheney conducted on Sept 11. He also gives detailed biographies of the Kean commission members. Huge conflicts of interest and corruption there. Mike is the author of "Crossing the Rubicon", the second best selling book after "The Kean Commission Report on 911".

Screening of the film Loose Change 2nd Edition
Wednesday, April 12, 2006 at 7:30 PM
Santa Cruz Veterans Memorial Building
846 Front Street (near the clock tower)
Santa Cruz, CA
WHAT IF...
September 11th was not a surprise attack on America. But rather, a cold and calculated genocide put on by elements within our own government?
The Twin Towers were not brought down by jet fuel, but by a controlled demolition.
The Pentagon was not hit by a Boeing 757, but was hit by a missle.
At 5:20 PM on 9/11, World Trade Center Building 7 collapsed straight down to the ground at the speed of gravity, even though it was not hit by any aircraft.
This film will prove without a shadow of a doubt that everything you know about 9-11 is a complete fabrication.
(There is some controversy over this film within the 9-11 Truth Movement. A critical review by Michael B. Green is posted at:http://www.911research.wtc7.net/essays/green/loose_change.html. Despite the film's flaws, it has drawn much attention to the 9-11 issue and helped to wake up some people.)Donations taken at the door. No one turned away for lack of funds.

(In addition to Bush coming, this is "Admit Weekend" and the campus is loaded with visiting high school students and their parents.) We suggest that you park near El Camino and Embarcadero -- in the lot at Town and Country Shopping Center or another location near El Camino Real and Embarcadero Road.
To get to Hoover, walk up Galvez Street (Embarcadero becomes Galvez once you cross El Camino and enter the Stanford campus). From El Camino and Embarcadero, it is only 6/10 of a mile to the corner of Galvez and Serra, where we will assemble and picket.
San Jose Protest
Friday, April 21, 1:00 - 4:00 pm
Cisco Systems, Tasman Drive and Cisco Way, San Jose
Organized by South Bay Mobilization
www.southbaymobilization.orgDear Friends,
The past 48 hours have been hectic and, at times, confusing. Word of George Bush's visit to our area first started coming out Tuesday with the announcement that he would give an address at Cisco Systems in San Jose. Late on Wednesday we were tipped that he would also visit the Hoover Institution (a conservative think tank) on the Stanford campus. We verified this additional visit just on Thursday.
PPJC and South Bay Mobilization immediately started organizing a San Jose protest. Now that we know Bush is also coming to Stanford, we have gone ahead with plans for two protests, with PPJC taking responsibility for Stanford and South Bay Mobe coordinating San Jose.
From what we've learned, Bush will arrive at Cisco Systems around 2:00 pm, apparently with Governator Schwarzenegger in tow. Bush will then helicopter to Stanford for a "conference" at the Hoover at 3:30 pm.
It remains unclear what security measures will be in place at either protest site, only the assumption that security will be tight. PPJC and SBM continue to monitor the situation as best we can (we're not exactly on the White House press release list), but please realize that events and locations may well be very "fluid" at Friday's protests.
One thing is clear, however: When George Bush visits our area on Friday, this worst President in U.S. history will be met by determined, peaceful and legal protests every step of the way.
U.S. Out of Iraq! Bush Out of Washington! Stop the spying. Stop the lying. Stop the dying.

Public Premiere of United 93
AMC Van Ness 14
1000 Van Ness Avenue, SF
At the Northern California 9-11 Truth Alliance meetings, we agreed that it would be good to target at least one showing of United 93 when it premieres in San Francisco. I checked out this theater and we can pass out flyers and literature in the parking garage and outside the main entrance on Van Ness Ave. We could carry signs, wear T shirts, bring flyers -

An HTML version of the flyer http://911research.wtc7.net/materials/flight93/flight93.html has hyperlinks to all the supporting references. Suitable for printing on both sides of an 8-1/2 X 11 sheet.

http://digitalstyledesigns.com/pages/downloads.htmWe also have plenty of signs- Neo-Con Jobs- Iraq, 9-11, if anyone wants to hold a sign. The press is likely to come and interview people before or after they see the film, if I think we have enough people jpoining us, I can also send out a press release or phone tv stations, and we might get on the evening news. (But since we are doing this at the last moment- I'm hesitant to send out a press release, in case there are just a few of us. I'd like to be there, personally from 4pm onwards, maybe even catch the 1:30 matinee. Please call me if you can come. Carol 650-857-0927

There is also an excellent film premiering the same night by our GNN friends which includes 9-11- American Blackout at 9:00 pm at the Kabuki Theater...featuring our Congressional Champion Cynthia McKinney.San Francisco Premiere of Guerrilla News Network's new film- American Blackout"
April 27th: 9:00 pm – Kabuki Theater
(also showing May 1st: 4:15 pm, Kabuki Theater)
1881 Post Street"PARK CITY "American Blackout," an engrossing, low-budget documentary, is a powerful examination of voting rights in America. The filmmakers intend to use the film as a political tool to galvanize voters. Director Ian Inaba, who is part of Guerrilla News Network, an organization that covers stories the mainstream media overlooks, focuses on the disturbing incidents of voter disenfranchisement among African-Americans, who traditionally vote democratic.
Ticket information available at: www.sffs.org"The jumping off point is the 2000 presidential election results in Florida, where many blacks were turned away at the polls. Given the saturation coverage of that election and the fight over the Florida vote count, making this material compelling once again would appear to an impossible feat but Inaba does it."

San Francisco Premiere of Guerrilla News Network's new film- American Blackout"
April 27th: 9:00 pm – Kabuki Theater
(also showing May 1st: 4:15 pm, Kabuki Theater)
1881 Post Street"PARK CITY "American Blackout," an engrossing, low-budget documentary, is a powerful examination of voting rights in America. The filmmakers intend to use the film as a political tool to galvanize voters. Director Ian Inaba, who is part of Guerrilla News Network, an organization that covers stories the mainstream media overlooks, focuses on the disturbing incidents of voter disenfranchisement among African-Americans, who traditionally vote democratic.
Ticket information available at: www.sffs.org"The jumping off point is the 2000 presidential election results in Florida, where many blacks were turned away at the polls. Given the saturation coverage of that election and the fight over the Florida vote count, making this material compelling once again would appear to an impossible feat but Inaba does it."

Film- "Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime"
May 8, 2006 - 375 Greenwich Street, NYC
The Tribeca Screening Room Presents:
"Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime" Largely ignored by the mainstream media, many of the disturbing facts surrounding the attacks of 9/11 raise deeply ethical questions associated with issues of accountability, justice and censorship in America.Produced by: John J. Albanese
Research Consultant: Nicholas LevisAttendance by RSVP only: EverybodyRSVP@Yahoo.com
Seating is limited. RSVP Guaranteed Seating tickets for $10 can be purchased here:(This film will be released online - for free - after this premier)
"Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime" may very well be the most compelling film yet outlining the disturbing and heavily censored facts associated with the worst terrorist attacks in American history. And while a grassroots movement worldwide continues to grow, and demand answers to the growing number of unanswered questions, the public outcry for accountability and transparency makes this film, perhaps, the most important film of 2006.
"Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime" is a free movie, produced by an independent artist, for educational and journalistic purposes only. Any proceeds derived from this premier event will go towards allaying the costs of presenting this film in the light of day, in New York City, in what is left of a free America in Tribeca.
We are making such material available in our efforts to advance the general public’s understanding of political, human rights, and social justice issues, under the definition of 'fair use' as provided for in section 107 of the US Copyright Law.

li>Conspiracy Con 2006
May 27th & 28th, Santa Clara, CA
This annual conference is a bold and serious approach to serious issues, dedicated to providing a forum for those who say what few are willing to say and facilitated in an atmosphere of goodwill, integrity and fun. Each year several of the most controversial speakers in the world gather to share their knowledge of many different issues (rarely or never addressed by our controlled media), which profoundly affect us all. Just some of the subjects covered are: Mind Control, Secret Societies, Shadow Government, The Federal Reserve, 9-11, Occult Technologies, Suppressed Knowledge, New World Order, etc...
I submit to each and every one of you reading this that the conspiratorial view of history is far closer to the truth than any other version of history. And, what backs this statement up... history.
It is time for all of humankind to grow up quickly and take a look at some disturbing things.

Details of Downtown Chicago 9/11 Truth Rally/March June 2, 2006 With over 200 registered participants, we hope to leave en masse after the press conference (1:00 p.m. - 2:15 p.m. at the Embassy Suites Hotel, Rosemont, and got together via the El Train (Blue Line downtown). Please join us!

Northern California 9-11 Truth Alliance has sent 400 posters, Gary Franchi plans on turning 200 of them into picket signs. We have a sound system, chant sheets, whistles, lots of Deception Dollars, and handouts for the good people and press of Chicago. We hope that the local peace and justice groups will join us and support the efforts to stop the cover-up, expose the lies about 9/11 which have been used to launch illegal wars, attack our Constitution, Bill of Rights, and sell Homeland Security, an endless bogus war on terrorism. Any "Impeachment," or "Don't Believe the Corporate Lies" signs would fit in well with the theme of our march and conference which is to challenge the official myths that support the War Paradigm and to promote the truths and policies which support People and Peace. Bring the kids, babies, musical instruments, your own message, songs, sense of humor, courage, outrage, energy to let Chicago, the world know that we aren't going to let the press, corporations, and government get away with the lies and their dark agenda. We demand and will create a better world for all.

Activists and press are invited to attend this free event which will highlight Ty Rauber’s film, “Who Killed John O’Neil?,”which looks deeply into the crime of September 11th and the soul splintering effects it has upon one man trying to understand what happened. Produced by Ty Rauber.wkjo.com
Jimmy Walter, a philanthropist has spent millions of dollars on advertising to promote the campaign to Reopen the 911 Investigation. who funded the Omission Commission in Manhattan- Confronting the Evidence - A Call to Reopen the 9/11 Investigation, in 2004, and organized a European 9/11 Truth Tour in 2005 will report on his recent efforts. He has gone to Venezuela, Malaysia, and Japan, to lobby for an International Commission to Investigate 9/11, and spoke in Japan, June 16, 2006 on this issue. (www.reopen911.org).
Participants from the Chicago Conference who will also say a few words include- Film Producer Ty Rauber; Ken Jenkins, videographer, who has produced many DVDs, especially highlighting the work of David Ray Griffin, and who shared the stage in Chicago with George W. Bush's former Chief Economist at the US Department of Labor, asking the question, “What was supposed to happen on 9/11/2001 and didn’t that has permitted researchers to understand 9/11 as a “failed special operation?” Bonnie Faulkner, producer of KPFA’s Guns and Butter, interviewed and taped the keynote speakers and whistleblowers that cast new light upon September 11th. Carol Brouillet, Green Party Congressional candidate.
Screening of "Confronting the evidence - a call to reopen the 911 investigation" followed by a speach and Q and A by Jimmy Walter, the director of the film.
June 20th, Tuesday, 7:00 PM - Humanist Hall - 390 27th St, Oakland
Jimmy Walter, one of the most serious 911 activists in the country, used to believe the official 911 story until he met Eric Hufschmid and saw his film "Painful Deceptions". Since that day Jimmy has spent millions of dollars out of his own pocket on 911 truth ads in mainstream media, sponsored a European tour for a group of 911 truth researchers and much much more.
In Mid-September, 2004, Walter funded the jam-packed Omission Commission in Manhattan: “Confronting the Evidence - a call to reopen the 9/11 investigation.” The mandate was twofold: First, to expose a complete accounting of the facts and circumstances surrounding the 9/11 attacks; second, like the Independent Commission, to make recommendations. In this made-for-broadcast forum, presenters had the task of laying out a compelling case for their evidence. The panel, composed of 9/11 victims, environmental experts, researchers, scientists, journalists and first responders, challenged some of the key data that had been the basis of the 9/11 Commission's investigations and pointed our many serious omissions and incongruities.

July Meeting of Sacramento 9/11 Truth
Wednesday, July 12, 2006 6PM to 8PM
1401 “G” Street, Sacramento, CA Juliana’s Kitchen restaurant
(At the corner of 14th and “G” Streets)At our July meeting, we’ve got a lot to discuss. More knowledge has been gained about 9/11 – and some of this was covered at the two recent national events, briefly described below. At the meeting, we can also strategize regarding a 9/11 follow-up event in our area, such as a featured guest speaker and a panel discussion regarding the June national events, followed question and answer dialogue. We can also explore ideas about utilizing media resources here, such as local alternative television.
Public Meeting Before & After 7/7: Interrogating British ‘Security’ Policies 6.30pm Wednesday 12 July
Committee Room 3, House of Lords, Westminster, SW1, London, UKHosted by Lord Rea
We are honoured to confirm that a number of survivors of the 7th July atrocities will be participating in the meeting, Rachel North and Holly Finch, who were both passengers of the Kings Cross train that terrible day. Rachel will be called to give a special address to the audience. Details of the rest of the meeting and speakers are below. The organizers and supporters of this event hope that this will be a significant step in building a solid campaign for an independent public inquiry.
Why did the 7/7 terrorist attack happen?,br> Like the 11 September 2001 attack, was this a ‘blowback’ effect of government policy?
What is being protected by British ‘security’ policies?
What alternative policies could protect us?Speakers

Prof. Bill Bowring, Human Rights & Social Justice Research Institute
Les Levidow, CAMPACCAnomalies and inconsistencies continue to plague the government's explanation of what happened on 7th July 2005, and why it failed to anticipate the London tube bombings. The government has since used the attacks to promote increasingly draconian powers, justified on the basis of protecting ‘national security’. This strategy does not protect us, but instead alienates and even criminalizes communities, especially by creating and persecuting more ‘terror suspects’. As the most extreme cases, the shootings at Stockwell and Forest Gate have disturbing parallels.
There is still no coherent, verifiable public account of the 7th July terrorist attacks. In his book, The London Bombings: An Independent Inquiry, Nafeez Ahmed demonstrates how the authorities' explanations have shifted continuously and inexplicably. In this context, the absence of a credible narrative has fueled wild speculation and left the public in the dark. Meanwhile leaks from security services and journalistic investigations continue to undermine the government's claims that the bombers were 'clean skins'.
Ahmed argues that the attacks can only be fully understood in the light of extensive co-operation between Islamist extremists and Western intelligence in the Balkans, Central Asia and Northwest Africa before 7/7. In reality, government policies promote terror abroad and tolerate extremism at home. Looking beyond the platitudes of the 'war on terror', Ahmed asks what exactly the government means by ‘national security’.
This meeting will hear critical perspectives from Nafeez Ahmed and Milan Rai and other leading experts. They will explore links between government policies that were already undermining our security before 7/7, and that are backfiring drastically after 7/7. The participants are calling for an independent public inquiry to unearth the failures that may have facilitated the London bombings, and which point towards an anti-terrorist strategy which could truly protect us.

(Our ally and owner of The Grand Lake Theater put me in touch with the organizer of this event, in hopes that we could participate in it and table in the lobby. The Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance will not be an official sponsor nor table at the event, but I think we should promote the event, anyway- and Impeachment. I believe Bush & Co. should be impeached for their role in 9/11, but I understand that there is already a slam/dunk case for impeachment on other grounds- which still creates more space for public dialogue on the issue and helps move the country in a different direction. I think we should pass out Deception Dollars, at least, and raise our voices given the opportunity, but I do appreciate the legitimacy of the young legal nerds pushing for impeachment using conservative arguments at this point in time. I have no doubts that the movement for impeachment, truth, peace and justice will continue to grow.)

There will be plenty of food and drink, so not to worry about that, but if you are so inspired to bring something, please do.
I’ll have photographs of Ground Zero today, and plenty of tales of what’s happening in New York. For business, I would like to do some fundraising to help finance Producer Ken Jenkins latest DVD of Dr. David Ray Griffin’s talk regarding “9/11, The Myth and the Reality”. It is scheduled to premier at the Grand Lake Theatre in Oakland on the Fifth Anniversary of the attacks, this Sept. 11, 2006.
I completely support Dr. Griffin’s research and message as well as Ken Jenkins efforts in getting this message to audiences.
I invite you to join me in supporting Ken’s educational projects and contribute whatever amount you are able. I have found it gratifying to help.
Ken will be on hand to show us some never before seen footage of Dr. Griffin’s talk in Santa Barbara discussing false flag operations.
I’m looking forward to seeing all of you for a pleasurable reunion. Could you let me know if you are going to be able to make it, so I can plan accordingly? I will be happy to e-mail you directions.

Premiering in the Bay Area- the film- "The War in Lebanon: An Inside View" including harrowing photos of the 1982 Sabra and Shatila Massacre.
Thursday, August 17 from 7:00 to 10:00 p.m.
Unitarian Universalist
Fellowship Hall, 1924 Cedar St.(at Bonita)
Berkeley, CA.
$10 suggested donation. No one will be turned away for lack of funds.Ralph Schoenman and Mya Shone, producers of the national radio show "Taking Aim," present a dramatic exposé of the current wave of U.S. coordinated and Israeli mass slaughter in Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon. They discuss in compelling and heart-rending detail the U.S. and Israeli murderous agenda, its timetable and the collusion of client Arab regimes in targeting the peoples of the region.
From Rafah to, Ramallah and Nablus, from Bint Jbail, Tyre, Sidon and Beirut to Tripoli, from 1947, 1967 to 1982 and now, an ongoing genocide has been unleashed - part of a plan to visit the identical agony on the people of Syria, Iran, Iraq and the region.
This murderous agenda proceeds under the cover of the false category of terror for which 9/11 was planned, implemented and orchestrated by the U.S. ruling class and its Israeli cohorts.
Heralded authors of "The Hidden History of Zionism," "Prisoners of Israel" and "Homage to Palestine," Schoenman and Shone, reveal through first hand testimony and shocking visuals the wholesale massacre and mass expulsion that emptied Palestine of its population in 1948 and was repeated in an identical operation in Lebanon in 1982.
In 1982-83, Schoenman and Shone lived in the Palestinian refugee camps as these were reduced to rubble. They documented the round-up by the Israeli invaders of males from ages 7 to 70 across Lebanon and took 6,000 affidavits from the victims' families. They witnessed and made a photo record of the mass murder and the mass graves from Ain El Helweh, Rashidieh, Bourj al Burajneh to Sabra and Shatila in Beirut.
Schoenman and Shone draw from their experiences in Palestine and Lebanon, their testimony presented to the United Nations, Foreign Ministers and to the Nordic Commission in Oslo, Norway as well as their years of advocacy on behalf of the Palestinian struggle for self-determination.
Ralph Schoenman was Secretary General of the International Tribunal on U.S. War Crimes in Indochina. He worked with Malcolm X with respect to the battle for the Congo and has negotiated the release of political prisoners in many countries. He was the Executive Director of the Committee in Defense of the Palestinian and Lebanese Peoples and the Committee for a Democratic and Secular Palestine. He is the author of "The Hidden History of Zionism," "Iraq and Kuwait: A History Suppressed," and co-authored with Mya Shone "Prisoners of Israel" (report for the United Nations) and "Homage to Palestine." Ralph Schoenman and Mya Shone co-produce "Taking Aim with Ralph Schoenman and Mya Shone" heard weekly on Pacifica's WBAI-NY and nationally on the Progressive Radio Network.
Mya Shone is an economist and has a long history as an activist involved in political, community and labor issues. She worked closely with Casa Nicaragua and Casa El Salvador during the struggles taking place in Central America, was the coordinator of the Tri-County (Santa Barbara, Ventura, San Luis Obispo) Labor Party chapter and co-coordinator of the Open World Conference in Defense of Trade Union Independence and Democratic Rights. She was the coordinator of the Committee in Defense of the Palestinian and Lebanese Peoples and the Committee for a Democratic and Secular Palestine. Mya Shone was also an award-winning documentary filmmaker as well as a newscaster at KPFK in Los Angeles.
Ben Gurion and the Final Aim:
(an excerpt from "The Hidden History of Zionism" by Ralph Schoenman, available from Veritas Press - see http://www.takingaim.info and Amazon.com)
In 1938, David Ben Gurion, who became the first Prime Minister of the Israeli state, wrote in a letter to his son:
"A partial Jewish State is not the end, but only the beginning. I am certain that we can not be prevented from settling in the other parts of the country and the region."
In 1937, he declaimed:
"The boundaries of Zionist aspirations are the concern of the Jewish people and no external factor will be able to limit them."
In 1938, he was more explicit: "The boundaries of Zionist aspirations," he told the World Council of Poale Zion in Tel Aviv, "include southern Lebanon, southern Syria, today's Jordan, all of Cis-Jordan [the West Bank] and the Sinai."

Five Years After 9/11: Terror, Power, and Resistance
An Activists' Roundtable Discussion with
Nicole Ozer - ACLU of Northern California
Rachelle Marshall - Writer, Washington Report on Middle East Affairs
Charlotte Casey - Activist, Code Pink and South Bay Mobilization
Paul George - Director, Peninsula Peace and Justice Centerand YOU! Come join the discussion.
A lot has happened since 9/11. Many things about the U.S. and the world have changed. Most of these changes have been for the worse... two wars, deteriorating civil liberties, out-of-control military spending, stolen elections. The list is long.
(Besides showing Hijacking Catastrophe, the PPJC has been very resistant to 9/11 Truth- so this issue will not be raised unless we show up and raise it. I would encourage 9/11 Truth activists to come.)
Join us as we analyze just where we're headed five years after those tragic events and what activists must do to change course... for the U.S. and the world.

Premiering- 9/11 Press for Truth
Thursday, September 7, 2006 at 7:00 pm., and 9:00 pm.
Grand Lake Theater
3200 Grand Lake Avenue Oakland, CA
Intro, Q & A with Bay area’s Emmy-winning Ken Ellis, co-executive producer, senior producer for George Lucas’s Educational Foundation. 911pressfortruth.com
The film's story-
Following the attacks of September 11th, a small group of grieving families waged a tenacious battle against those who sought to bury the truth about the event—including, to their amazement, President Bush. In ‘9/11 PRESS FOR TRUTH’, six of them, including three of the famous “Jersey Girls”, tell for the first time the powerful story of how they took on the greatest powers in Washington—and won!—compelling an investigation, only to subsequently watch the 9/11 Commission fail in answering most of their questions.
Adapting Paul Thompson’s definitive Complete 9/11 Timeline (published by HarperCollins as ‘The Terror Timeline’), the filmmakers collaborate with documentary veterans Globalvision (‘WMD: Weapons of Mass Deception’, ‘Beyond JFK’) to stitch together rare overlooked news clips, buried stories, and government press conferences, revealing a pattern of official lies, deception and spin. As a result, a very different picture of 9/11 emerges, one that raises new and more pressing questions.
What actions were taken by top government officials who received dozens of specific warnings before the attack? Was Osama Bin Laden and his top al Qaeda leadership allowed to escape U.S. forces in Afghanistan? And what has been the reason for the deliberate obscuring of evidence for state sponsorship? Perhaps the most important one of all: Why, five years later, are so many of the families’ questions still unanswered?

Film- BEYOND TREASON Saturday, September 9, 7:00 p.m.
Unitarian Universalist Church
505 E. Charleston Road, Palo AltoThis film was a Grand Festival Award Winner – 2005 Berkeley Film Fest
Followed by a discussion of the film and the unexpected consequences of vaccines. This fall the mass media will encourage us to roll up our sleeves for vaccinations in order to protect ourselves from a possible pandemic illness. Parents, health workers, teachers, police, and firemen all need to think clearly about their decisions.
For the past 50 years the military has been testing toxic chemicals on U.S. military personnel without their knowledge or consent. Some of the chemicals were inhaled; others were taken orally or given as vaccines to protect soldiers from “enemy-discharged” bio-toxins. The consequences for individuals and their families were alarming and some of their well documented stories have been explored on 60 Minutes.
In particular, parents need to be thoughtful about inoculations for their children. Autism, learning disabilities and adult ADD percentages are up, but experts have yet to identify the causes. Recent statistics reveal that boys are four times more likely to be affected, while 1 in 166 children are now categorized with learning disabilities. The question is: Are there safe ways to protect your loved ones if there is a real pandemic?
Dennis Kyne who is interviewed in the film, and spent 15 years in the military, will discuss his experiences and your rights regarding environmental toxins and vaccines. Kyne was a Veteran Staff Sergeant Army medic in the 18th Airborne during the first Bush Gulf War in the early l990’s. He was the first to receive a settlement from poisoning due to exposure to depleted uranium.

Premiere of new film of David Ray Griffin- "9/11 the Myth and the Reality"

Grand Lake Theater
3200 Grand Avenue
Oakland, California
Doors open at 6:00 each night, trailers, previews and shorts start at 6:30, film premieres start at 7:00. Q & A / discussion with the filmmakers follows each night.
This will be the world film premiere of David Ray Griffin's talk given at the Grand Lake Theater March 30, 2006 to a sold out audience. Griffin's presentation was videotaped with six cameras, and 9/11 filmmaker Ken Jenkins has illustrated the film with hundreds of graphics and clips. This video will likely become not only the definitive Griffin DVD, but will likely serve as the Loose Change for the older generations. Griffin condensed the highlights of his first two books on 9/11 into a dynamic presentation. A slightly shorter version of the same talk was given April 3rd at the prestigious Commonwealth Club in San Francisco, and much of the footage in the film is from that location. The premiere will be followed by a question and answer session with filmmaker and 9/11 activist Ken Jenkins
Tickets $10 or $15 for both the 11th & 12th.

There have been many ideas about why the U.S. was attacked on September 11. Jungian Cal Simone will lead an exploration of the trends and patterns in the American collective psyche. Rather than talking about who perpetrated the events, we will bring focus to the underlying meanings of the attack as well as our own accountability for bringing this about.

World Can't Wait Drive out the Bush Regime!
(We've cancelled our regularly scheduled monthly meeting to join in solidarity with World Can't Wait. We'll bring our table, banner, signs, educational materials, possibly screen films... in cooperation with World Can't Wait.)There is still an effort to secure march and rally permits in San Francisco, but as of now, here's what we have- check out the World Can't Wait website for the latest details...
THIS PROTEST IS AT LEAST 24 HOURS LONG

OCT 6 (Friday morning) 8 AM rally and press conferenceOctober 5 THURSDAY MORNING: High School and College Walk-Outs -- Leave work early or stay out -- join us in the streets to call out to the people of the Bay Area to GET INVOLVED! All over the Bay Area, people wake up to the sights and sounds of October 5th. Banner drops, giant public art, poster lines along commute lanes, flyering busses and trains, radio news, soundtrucks, people are everywhere visible, building the heart and determination to make this truly a day of mass political resistance. Tell all the youth and the communities. Bring signs, banners, music, boom boxes, creative arts supplies, your ideas, your voice. Come to downtown San Francisco early, head for the mass convergence -- or on your way there, pick your spot for creative action in the street, or join those who have planned a sit-in, a worship service, street theater, a rally. The theme and message of October 5th: WE REPUDIATE THE ENTIRE PROGRAM OF THE BUSH REGIME, THE PEOPLE WILL DRIVE THEM OUT AND REVERSE THE DIRECTION THEY HAVE BEEN TAKING THIS COUNTRY AND THE WORLD.
** The color is of the day is The World Can't Wait green. Send your plan and contact info to be included in a schedule of the day to sf@worldcantwait.org
OCTOBER 5 THURSDAY NOON: 1. Mass Convergence at the Statue of the Bush Regime, 2. Youth Speak Out and then MARCH.
At points during this day, groups of youth will gather to publicly take a pledge to the people of the world: We refuse to take any part in this governments murderous and utterly illegitimate war on the world, and we refuse to give our support to any of the other crimes of the Bush Regime! (***note this pledge wording is not finalized, but you get the idea)
OCTOBER 5 THURSDAY 4PM into the evening: MAJOR MASS CONVERGENCE with prominent speakers, performers, and a dramatic People's Tribunal against George Bush and his entire adminstration on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity. Trial to be convened in the traditional San Francisco World Can't Wait huge manner. Will the people find the Bush Regime guilty as charged?
OCTOBER 5-6 ALL NIGHT LONG: 'CAMP WAKE THE FOLK UP!' will continue non-stop as a large diverse crowd vigils all night listening to testimony by victims of the Bush Regime, and by those in resistance against it - and their speakers, poetry, songs - broadcast and podcast from the vigil grounds round-the-clock. People are invited from everywhere to come to join this encampment whatever the hour. As the night unfolds, people will talk, debate, and work together on visions and plans for driving out the Bush Regime and reversing the whole direction it has been taking the country and the world.
OCTOBER 6 FRIDAY 8AM: Press Conference and Rally. Greet the new day with a morning rally, reporting on the historic events of the past 24 hours around the country -- and plans for upcoming days as this mass movement looks ahead to its next steps to drive out the Bush Regime. *** NOTE: Permits for the above events are being applied for now.

· We’re going to launch 6 weeks of street gatherings where people create a culture of resistance in song and theater, with exhibits and speak-outs focused on our Call’s “Your Government” indictments.
· We want to be ready to respond to an October (or November) Surprise from the Bush Regime.
· We are planning STATE OF EMERGENCY TEACH-INS on campuses and in communities before the end of October, to do emergency education on each of the “Your Government” indictments.

Mt. Diablo Peace & Justice Center
55 Eckley Lane, Walnut CreekVideos for Peace: 9/11: Press for Truth (84 min.)
Guest Speaker: Dr. Paul Rea, author of Still Seeking the Truth About 9/11"I've been waiting for the Hearts and Minds of the 9/11 movement, and now we have it." -- Dr. Paul Rea, after viewing 9/11: Press for Truth.
Following the attacks of September 11th, a small group of grieving families waged a tenacious battle against those who sought to bury the truth about the event "including, to their amazement, President Bush. In "9/11: Press for Truth" six of them, including three of the famous 'Jersey Girls', tell for the first time the powerful story of how they took on the greatest powers in Washington—and won!— compelling an investigation, only to subsequently watch the 9/11 Commission fail in answering most of their questions. Perhaps the most important one of all: Why, five years later, are so many of the families' questions still unanswered?
Adapting Paul Thompson's Complete 9/11 Timeline (www.complete911timeline.org), the film stitches together news clips, buried stories and government press conferences, revealing a pattern of official lies, deception and spin. Thompson's narrative presents a different picture of 9/11, one that raises new, more pressing questions.
What actions were taken by top government officials who received dozens of specific warnings before the attack? Was Bin Laden and his top al Qaeda leadership allowed to escape in Afghanistan? What has been the reason for obscuring the evidence regarding the Pakistani connection? These and many more questions have have not yet been fully answered, but the 9/11 Truth Movement (911Truth.org) is working hard to find credible explanations.
9/11 Press for Truth premieres in Palo Alto with authors- Paul Thompson and Peter Dale Scott Friday, October 27th 7 pm at Spangenberg Theater
Gunn High School, 780 Arastradero Road.This film tells the story of the battle between the grieving families and the White House. The families won one battle and forced the Commission into existence, but they were distressed to witness the Commission's failure to address most of the questions posed by the Family Steering Committee. The documentary adapts Paul Thompson's Complete 9/11 Timeline and pieces together news clips, buried stories, and government press conferences to reveal a pattern of lies, deception, and spin. The film raises questions about 9/11 that have led many families to express skepticism about the official story and demand a new investigation. The film will be followed by a discussion with Paul Thompson and Peter Dale Scott, editor of 9/11 and American Empire, both of whom have researched extensively the relationship between the terrorists and the US government.

Northern California 9-11 Truth Alliance San Francisco Strategy Meeting
Sunday, December 3, 2006
The meeting will be from 10am to 6pm.
We generally meet on the first Thursday of the month in San Francisco, however, in December our regular space is not available, and we voted to try to have an all day meeting on the first weekend in December.
Last year, we opened it up to all of Northern California and had about 75 people, created a long list of ideas, came up with language for our actions/posters/articles/press releases, and voted to support Carol Brouillet's 9/11 Truth/Impeachment Congressional bid.
Agenda:
Assess (and celebrate) the 9/11 Truth Movement's (and our) achievements, over the years, this year in particular, and where we are now. Look at our current situation, politically, the obstacles, opportunities, threats, before us now.
Determine what our resources our, where are passions and energies can be directed for the benefit of Movement needs, and our personal needs/hopes. Brainstorm short, medium, long term goals.
Consider how we can be more effective, what our our internal weaknesses, how can we improve our communications within the group, and getting our message out to the public.
How can we support, encourage, inspire one another, and grow the movement?
We want to be able to have the thoughtful discussions that we don't have time for at our regular meetings, but since this meeting will replace our usual San Francisco, first Thursday meeting, we will try to cover our regular business, as well. One reason we chose to have the meeting this weekend is so that those who wanted to do a solidarity action with the December 16th Boston Tea Party 9/11 Truth event- would have a bit of time to connect and plan an action.

In the second portion, Tom Tvedten – led a discussion of the rapidly expanding national 911 DVD Project www.911dvdproject.com, and how to utilize this outstanding resource to further our goal of disseminating 9/11 Truth.
At our meeting this Wednesday, we’ll discuss this conference call in greater detail. We’ll also talk about some pertinent websites, such as the new Pilots for 9/11 Truth www.pilotsfor911truth.org , Patriots Question 9/11, a lengthy listing of Senior Military, Intelligence, and Government Critics of the 9/11 Commission Report www.patriotsquestion911.com, and a PowerPoint presentation of 9/11 Truth found at www.truememes.com.

In solidarity and in spirit with the Boston Tea Party for 9/11 Truth and the courageous American patriots who, on December 16, 1773 said "No!" to lack of representation and tyranny by tossing crates of British tea into Boston harbor, the Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance will enact a "9/11 Truth Tea Party" on December 16, 2006, calling upon those who cherish the ideals of liberty and justice to cast off the tyrannies imposed on the American public and the world that were sold by governmental lies immediately after 9/11, and later through compounded lies and coverups within the official 9/11 Commission Report.
For those who were not able to cross the continent to be with our brothers and sisters in Boston, we gathered in San Francisco to hear about the “Connected Dots” that should be “Heard Round the World,” and to voice our own proclamation demanding an immediate, genuinely independent investigation. We applaud Boston's efforts to re-establish Citizen Grand Juries by which the pre-Revolutionary War colonists legally threw off the yoke of tyranny. We paraded an enlarged replica of the deeply flawed 9/11 Commission Report to the waters of San Francisco Bay. There we declared its false-conclusions ‘null and void.’
According to the latest polls, 62% of the American people believe that the official 9/11 story of George W, King Pretender, is fatally flawed or a deliberate lie. As more and more scholars, physicists, engineers, architects, and high-level government, military and intelligence insiders come forward to contribute to a fuller understanding of the true facts of 9/11 (patriotsquestion911.org), often at great risk to themselves, so we came forward to add our voices to those of Boston and New England 9/11 Truth groups who believe that truth is the moral imperative of our democratic society and an obligation of all public servants. We were joined by 9/11 Truth groups in Philadelphia, DC, St. Louis, and Milwaukee who organized their own Tea Parties for 9/11 Truth.
The catastrophic events of 9/11 and the illegal, unilateral wars and unprecedented assaults on our constitutional rights and liberties here at home, justified by the official lie about who perpetrated the 9/11 events, are at the very center of everyday life in America. We therefore will accept no compromise until the full truth of 9/11 reclaims its rightful place at the core of the American psyche. Only a complete and independent 9/11 investigation will yield the answers all Americans deserve. These answers will empower us to confront the Bush Administration’s challenges to the freedoms and democracy guaranteed by our Constitution and defended through the sacrifices of those who have come before us and the many who are still dying because of this unconscionable official Lie.
We welcome and invite those who cherish liberty, truth, justice, and peace to join us in our efforts!
San Francisco Bay TEA PARTY for 9/11 TRUTH
PROCLAMATION 12/16/2006Fellow citizens, the lies and deceptions of the tyrannical elite within our government regarding the crimes of September 11, 2001 have undermined our democratic processes and our liberties, and have been used to launch wars upon other nations for far too long. The Executive, Judiciary and US Congress are hereby advised that we, the citizenry of these United States, hold an uncompromising DEMAND for:
A genuine independent investigation of the attacks on 9/11/2001.
Whereas the catastrophic events of September 11, 2001 have been used to justify attacks upon our Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and habeas corpus, and whereas subsequent wars launched upon the world have, together, threatened all of humanity--physically, legally, morally, and psychologically; and
Whereas the 9/11 Commission ignored the fact that the Government lied and falsified scientific data about the quality of the air and water in the wake of 9/11, thereby compounding the disaster, endangering the health of unprotected first responders and citizens, sacrificing them in the interests of re-opening Wall Street, and later fighting the victims in court to deny them health benefits; and
Whereas the 9/11 Commission was directed by Dr. Philip Zelikow, author of Bush’s “pre-emptive war doctrine,” whose tenure as a member of the Bush National Security transition team caused him to appear as a witness before the Commission and represented so outrageous a conflict of interest that the 9/11 Family Steering Committee demanded his resignation, to no avail; and whereas Dr. Zelikow's expertise is the creation and maintenance of, in his words, “public myths,” which he defined as “beliefs… thought to be true (although not necessarily known to be true with certainty),” and in what he called “‘searing’ or ‘molding’ events [that] take on ‘transcendent’ importance and retain their power” across generations; and
Whereas the 9/11 Commission failed to investigate members of the Administration who also were members of the Project for a New American Century and wrote "Creating Tomorrow's Dominant Force," which stated the need for the Department of Defense to "move more aggressively to experiment with new technologies and operational concepts,” and that "further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event like a new Pearl Harbor;” and
Whereas the 9/11 Commission failed to investigate numerous Air Force war games conducted on September 11, 2001 that severely crippled our highly competent aircraft interception capability; and
Whereas the 9/11 Commission failed to investigate or even mention the demolition of the 47-story World Trade Center Building 7, which was not struck by a plane, but went down at near freefall speed at 5:20 pm on 9/11; and
Whereas the 9/11 Commission failed to mention that fire had never caused steel-frame high-rise buildings to collapse, and that the pulverization of the towers shared the distinctive features of controlled demolitions, and mischaracterized the towers' core structure as “a hollow steel shaft,” ignoring the 47 massive steel support columns as large as 22 inches by 54 inches; and
Whereas the 9/11 Commission failed to investigate and explain how the Pentagon, within the most-guarded airspace on the planet, including its own missile defense system, was penetrated on 9/11/2001; and
Whereas, the 9/11 Commission decided that who financed 9/11 was “of little practical significance,” ignoring evidence that top ISI General Mahmoud Ahmad had $100,000 wired to alleged lead pilot Mohammed Atta, and evidence that top Al Qaeda operative Ali Mohammed, who was involved with the ’93 WTC bombings, the African Embassy attacks and 9/11, was employed and protected by the FBI, CIA and the US military; and
Whereas the 9/11 Commission failed so utterly in its stated mission “to prepare a full and complete account of the circumstances surrounding the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks,” that Dr. David Ray Griffin, author of The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions and Distortions, deemed the Commission’s effort a 571-page lie, after chronicling 115 of its “errors;”
We, people of the United States of America, today, from Boston to California, from sea to shining sea, on the sixteenth day of December in the year two thousand and six, do hereby REJECT the findings contained in the Report of the Kean-Hamilton Commission to Investigate Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States, and DEMAND the release of documents, evidence, withheld by the government, and an IMMEDIATE, genuinely Independent 9/11 investigation with subpoena powers, independent 9/11 researchers, and oversight by 9/11 families and concerned citizens.
Join us, be not afraid-- the day of reckoning and the end of the era of lies, deceit, tyranny, and war is at hand.
May truth, peace, liberty, respect for life and justice prevail.*
[Apologies go out to those who might have missed us today, because of poor communications and a change of schedule. Some of us arrived near Hyde Street Pier at 9:30 am, where we set up our awning, tables, chairs, resource materials, banners, and began to leaflet the public. We arrived at Pier 39 at 12:50, began our rally promptly at 1:00 pm, and a leisurely parade westward at 1:15. We rallied near Hyde Street Pier from 2:00- 2:20 pm and converged for another rally at the bleachers in Aquatic Park at 2:30 pm. At that time we received a call from the local television station KPIX, saying that they were stuck in traffic and running late, so we promised not to cast our replica into the Bay, until they arrived. The delay was somewhat convenient, because Federal Park Security blocked off the entrance to the pier for awhile, but dispersed when the TV camera showed up. Our giant replica (12' x 8' x 2') of the 9/11 Report was also late, but paraded down Municipal Pier for final words before we cast the large replica (47" x 31" x 7") into the Bay. KPFA caught some of the speeches, an interview, and the proclamation for their evening news broadcast. We gave an update on Webster Tarpley's radio show, and heard great reports about the events in Milwaukee and Boston.
It really needs to be said here- that a great time was had by all. Despite the drama, the fears, the threats, the concerns, the logistical challenges, late arrivals- wonderful people came- our outreach effort was a great success, despite the seriousness of our cause, and our very deep committment to truth, peace, justice, a better future for all- we had fun! My love to all who came, supported us, wished us well, especially those who helped mind the table- Bob, Camille, Dana, Diane, Ken- and to the Herculean, heroic, brilliant effort at constructing the giant Report and getting it to the pier- Bravo Brian! And of course- the organizers- John, our scout who figured out the route, and our videographers- Mike Marino and Ken Jenkins, Chuck who made the images for the large replica, Cam who designed the beautiful cards, Boston 9/11 Truth for inspiring us, and sending us the media list and the T-shirts. Scott, John, Richard, David, Joseph, and the others who went to the effort of getting costumes, and pulled through and spoke at the rallies. It truly was a group effort, by we the people... Carol (who brought the sound system, and the food)]

Impeach Beach in San Francisco
Saturday, January 6, 2007
Ocean Beach(Just two days after the new US Congress convenes), 1,200 people will gather for an impeachment event in Nancy Pelosi’s back yard — on Ocean Beach in San Francisco. (We pitched this event at our San Francisco Tea Party- the more of us- the louder the statement- and it shouldn't take much effort to win over all those for impeachment to 9/11 Truth- let's all go and pass out Deception Dollars, flyers... and have fun knowing that so many share our desire to end the criminal's reign of terror. We'll try to meet at the left top of the H.)
Early that morning, in 100-foot letters stretching 450 feet across the sand, volunteers from the Beach Impeach Project will outline the message:
I M P E A C H !
At 10:30, the attendees will arrive and lay their bodies down inside the message’s lettering. At 11 a.m. a helicopter will arrive overhead and photographers will record the 1,200 bodies in the sand — “IMPEACH!” — with the San Francisco skyline and the Golden Gate Bridge in the background.
News editors will have compelling photos for the next morning’s Sunday papers; the nation and world will have convincing evidence of how badly the American people (even Ms. Pelosi’s own constituency) want their leaders held accountable for the Iraq disaster; and the impeachment movement will have powerful visuals to go with the words and chatter swirling in the air for months and months.
If 1,200 people register in advance, this will be not just a frolic at the beach, but a NEWS story (the media are already interested). Also, I can communicate via just one email with all who are registered, instead of 1,200 emails. Please take 60 seconds to register yourself and your friends. (It's a good idea as they had to cancel due to dangerous surge last December at the last minute- and the weather isn't that predictable.)

Rally and March to End the War in Iraq
Saturday, January 27th 2007, 12 noon
Powell and Market Street, San Francisco
Bring the Troops Home Now from Iraq! Stop Racist Attacks on Arabs and Muslims! End the Occupation of Palestine!
Almost 3,000 dead American soldiers, at least 650,000 dead Iraqis. It's time to put a stop to the war machine. Millions of people voted to get the Republicans out and end the war, but we can't leave it up to the Democrats to do the only reasonable thing: BRING ALL THE TROOPS HOME NOW FROM IRAQ!
The Iraq Study Group offers more of the same, or even an escalation of troops in Iraq. President Bush is vowing to continue the war and the danger grows every day that the US or Israel will attack Lebanon again or launch another "pre-emptive strike" against Syria or Iran.
It's time to get the anti-war movement back in the streets! On January 27, hundreds of thousands of people will march in DC to demand an end to the war. Let's show Bush and the new Democratic Congress that the anti-war movement is back.See http://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2007/01/22/18350691.php for downloadable flyer and more details.
Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance is endorsing this rally/march and we will have a 9/11 Truth Contingent, and hopefully a table at some place for the rally/march, depending on the route and timetable. If you can volunteer to help carry banners, signs, the sound system, or manuever our 12' x 8' x 2' replica of the flawed 9/11 Report, which will be on wheels and part of the march,or pass out our flyers/deception dollars... contact Carol- 650-857-0927. We'll meet at 11:00 am at Powell and Market to set up and get prepared.

The invite says we can look forward to remarks by the new mayor and to bring the whole family for refreshments and celebration, and encourages us to "Bring some cookies to share." I'll be happy to bring cookies- and free literature which challenges the direction this town is going- building an expensive new police station and preparing for the next terrorist attack.
The film- “Divided We Fall: Americans in the Aftermath” Wednesday, Jan. 31, 7:00 pm
2040 Life Sciences Building (LSB), UC BerkeleyPANA Institute’s project on Civil Liberties and Faith presents- Divided We Fall
written and produced by Valerie Kaur
directed and produced by Sharat RajuDivided We Fall is a film about the untold American story in the aftermath of 9/11. It is a moving story that brings us to the intersections of violence, identity, and power in America, and forces us to confront where we stand as a people.
Valarie Kaur was twenty years old when she got in her car and began driving across the country. A man from her community had just been murdered. An elderly man nearly beaten to death. A woman stabbed in the head. Fragments of these stories sent across e-mail lists were not making the nightly news, only the towers falling over and over again between headshots of turbaned and bearded Osama bin Laden. As a Sikh American college student, Valarie wanted to reconcile the two faces of America— the unity of a grieving nation and the fear dividing her country. At the end of September 2001, she left behind her junior year and began a journey across the country, looking for the heart of America.
Award-winning director Sharat Raju and his team joined Valarie Kaur in 2004 to create the footage into a feature-length documentary. The crew retraced Valarie's steps in summer 2005 in a second phase of production on 16mm film and interviewed again the people Valarie first met in 2001. The team has created a film that explores what it means to be American five years in the aftermath.
$5.00 at the door; or free with any valid student ID Please visit the film website www.dwf-film.com for more information. Every dollar raised will go back into film production.

Fremont Library, 2400 Stevenson Blvd.( At Paseo Padre, by Lake Elizabeth.)
Presented by newly formed Tri-City independent Documentary Series, founded by Professor Paul Rea, a Newark resident, and Jane Bark of Fremont (Northern California 9-11 Truth Alliance members) with the intention of showing current affairs documentaries monthly at the Fremont Library.
"IRAQ FOR SALE: THE WAR PROFITEERS" will be shown followed by a discussion led by Dr. Sharat G. Lin. Dr. Lin writes on the Middle East, India, global political economy, and the environment. His articles include "Economic roots of conflict in the new world order" and "Who started it? Chronology of the latest crisis in the Middle East."
The film tells the story of what happens to everyday Americans when corporations go to war. Acclaimed director Robert Greenwald takes you inside the lives of soldiers, truck drivers, widows and children who have been changed forever as a result of profiteering in the reconstruction of Iraq.
"A Senator named Harry Truman made a name for himself investigating just such misconduct during World War ll. Back then war profiteers were run out of town. Today it appears they run the town." -- Keith Olbermann.
From 880 freeway exit Stevenson, go approx. 2 miles towards the hills, cross Paseo, turn right into library. From Fremont BART walk 2 blocks south on Civic Center (hills on your left), turn right on Stevenson.

About the film:
Although independent investigations began within weeks of both Pearl Harbor and the Kennedy assassination, the same was not true of the attacks of September 11th. Most are unaware that formation of the 9/11 Commission was strongly opposed by many in Washington, including the Bush administration. It was only due to pressure from the 9/11 families, led by a particular twelve calling themselves the Family Steering Committee, that, fourteen months after the attacks, the first hearing finally began.In 9/11: PRESS FOR TRUTH, five of the most prominent members of the Family Steering Committee, including three of the Jersey Girls , tell their story for the first time, providing the most powerful argument yet for why 9/11 still needs investigation.
Adapting Paul Thompson's definitive Complete 9/11 Timeline (published by HarperCollins as The Terror Timeline), the filmmakers stitch together rare, overlooked news clips, buried stories, and government press conferences, revealing a patternof official lies, deception, and spin.

Emergency Summit to Prevent War with Iran
Saturday, March 10, 2007 – 10AM to 4PM – UC Berkeley
“IF YOU LIKE WAR IN IRAQ, YOU’LL LOVE WAR ON IRAN”
So goes the tagline on a new ad by Physicians for Social Responsibility.
As Congress and the mainstream media are distracted by the new troop escalation in Iraq, little attention is given to the much more consequential reality that we may be only a few months, weeks, or even days away from a new and potentially more horrifying war.
At this summit, a wide range of organizations and activists are coming together to take a serious look at how, together, we may be successful in preventing an attack on Iran. See the end of this message for a partial list of organizations that have confirmed their attendance in this summit.
Even though this summit is primarily for organizations and activists, others are also welcome.
In the morning session we will hear from one or more experts on the US-Iran standoff. In the afternoon session we will work on:
Producing more with less: How can we increase the level of collaboration among our organizations?
Power of many: How can we effectively share our experiences and leverage our resources?
Learning from our successes and mistakes: What has been working and what has not?
Sharpening our message: What are some effective talking points?
Formulating a winning strategy
The good news: Why are the chances of success much better now than the pre-Iraq-war time?
Collaborative action planDue to the urgency of this matter, this summit is being organized in a short timeframe. Please help this effort by emailing your RSVP as soon as possible and by taking the initiative to contact other organizations that may be interested in the goal of the summit.
Please RSVP (your name, email address, phone contact, and your organization’s name) as soon as possible by sending an email to:

9/11 Truth, Stolen Elections and Beyond: What’s going on in our country and what can we do about it? A multimedia series by Ken Jenkins
Film- "9/11 Press for Truth" followed by a Discussion with Professor Paul Rea, author of Still Seeking the Truth about 9/11
Saturday, March 24 at 1:30 pm
Fremont Library, 2400 Stevenson Blvd. (at Paseo Padre, by Lake Elizabeth.)
Presented by Tri-City Independent Documentary Series, founded by Paul Rea, a Newark resident, and Jane Bark (Northern California 9-11 Truth Alliance members) with the intention of showing current affairs documentaries monthly at the Fremont Library.
The Story-
Following the attacks of September 11th, a small group of grieving families waged a tenacious battle against those who sought to bury the truth about the event—including, to their amazement, President Bush. In ‘9/11 PRESS FOR TRUTH’, six of them, including three of the famous “Jersey Girls”, tell for the first time the powerful story of how they took on the greatest powers in Washington—and won!—compelling an investigation, only to subsequently watch the 9/11 Commission fail in answering most of their questions.
Adapting Paul Thompson’s definitive Complete 9/11 Timeline (published by HarperCollins as ‘The Terror Timeline’), the filmmakers collaborate with documentary veterans Globalvision (‘WMD: Weapons of Mass Deception’, ‘Beyond JFK’) to stitch together rare overlooked news clips, buried stories, and government press conferences, revealing a pattern of official lies, deception and spin. As a result, a very different picture of 9/11 emerges, one that raises new and more pressing questions.
What actions were taken by top government officials who received dozens of specific warnings before the attack? Was Osama Bin Laden and his top al Qaeda leadership allowed to escape U.S. forces in Afghanistan? And what has been the reason for the deliberate obscuring of evidence for state sponsorship? Perhaps the most important one of all: Why, five years later, are so many of the families’ questions still unanswered?
From 880 freeway exit Stevenson, go approx. 2 miles towards the hills, cross Paseo, turn right into library. From Fremont BART walk 2 blocks south on Civic Center (hills on your left), turn right on Stevenson.

1924 Cedar St (@Bonita) Berkeley
April 14, 2007 7pm
Suggested $5 donation at the door. No one turned away for lack of funds.Consider some of the following questions:
1) Is there any significant evidence definitively proving that 9/11 was (or was not) an inside job?
2) Is there significant evidence backing up the government and media's story that 9/11 was completely orchestrated and controlled by Osama bin Laden and 19 Muslims on the 4 planes involved in the 9/11 attacks?
3) What is a-myth in the religious/folkloric sense and how are myths of this sort able to control, direct or influence society?
4) Is it possible that 9/11 is a myth in either the religio/folkloric sense or in the pejorative sense, i.e. that the story we have been given is not true (does not correspond to the facts)?
5) Question for consideration: Consider other beliefs, opinions, and positions that we hold individually or as members of society. Could these beliefs, opinions or positions be considered myths?
6) Are there such things as constructive myths? Destructive myths? Neutral myths? Ambiguous or dual use myths?
7) What was the crime for which Socrates was executed? Did he not teach young people (and others) to examine themselves, to critically look at themselves and society? Would Socrates (if he could come back to life today) seem to be as dangerous and threatening to our present day establishment here as the original Socrates was to classical Athenian society?
8) Given what humanity and our corporate controlled war and money society is doing to our biosphere and many of our ecosystems, native cultures, and systems of justice (injustice?) can we afford not to question our thoughts, our beliefs, our society and its institutions and consider whether there is not perhaps a better way to live? If we do not do this are we not condemning the earth to a terrible fate?
9) So the question is, "Are you willing to become a thoughtful (and perhaps dangerous) person, like Socrates?"
10) Consider coming to view David Ray Griffin's - "9/11 - the Myth and the Reality" and joining in a discussion of an event which is pivotal to life in 21st century America.

9/11 in Context: The Big Picture: Using the 9/11 truth issue as a touchstone, this discussion will look at the nature of the overall changes we are going through that include other such unsettling realities as the stolen elections, lies leading to war in Iraq, and the response by our government to Katrina. By seeing these in the context of a global awakening, we can more effectively work on issues to facilitate the creation of a better world.

Sonoma State University
1801 E. Cotati Ave, Rohnert Park, CA- Architect Speaks Out about 9-11 Media research group Project Censored will host a fascinating no-holds-barred second look at the world’s three largest structural failures in history. San Francisco architect Richard Gage will present the results of his extensive research into the collapse of World Trade Center buildings 1, 2 and 7 on September 11, 2001. In a 1-hour multimedia presentation, he will ask the questions the media never asked – and will go where the 9/11 commission dared not. The accounts and conclusions of firemen, physicists and other experts will be addressed. Tough questions about the damage by jet impacts and fires on the WTC twin towers will be answered. Mr. Gage will examine some of the mysteries of World Trade Center 7, such as how the 47-story high rise building fell straight into its own foot print in 6.5 seconds, and why tons of molten metal were later found under the rubble. The presentation will include a scrutiny of the NIST and FEMA building failure reports and the holes they leave regarding the possible use of explosives on 9-11.
Richard Gage has been a practicing architect for 20 years and has designed numerous fire-protected steel-framed buildings. He became interested in the 9/11 WTC high-rise collapses after hearing the startling conclusions of self-proclaimed “reluctant 9/11 researcher” David Ray Griffin. Richard’s own quest to discover the truth behind the strange events of that fateful day has inspired him to found the organization Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth.

Saturday, April 28, 2007
10:30 am Ocean Beach
San FranciscoA special-event permit application has been submitted to the Park Service, and the Park Service has given a verbal thumbs up. The permit, when issued (the Park Service expects to issue it in early April,) will allow 2,000 people to come and lie down on the beach with their bodies arranged to spell out an impeachment message. On January 6, 2007, one thousand people came to the same spot on Ocean Beach and laid down and spelled out “IMPEACH” in 100-foot letters. Since we’ll have 2,000 people this time, we’ll probably spell out “IMPEACH NOW!” – with the “NOW!” part either in slightly bigger letters (125 feet?) than the “IMPEACH” part, or perhaps we’ll simply underline the “NOW!” part, or whatever seems to make the most sense during the graph-paper-and-tide-charts stage of planning…
TIME: Please arrive BY 10:30 a.m and find a spot in the lettering. The helicopter or photographer’s airplane (not finalized yet) plus whatever news helicopters may come should arrive overhead at 11. The whole should all be over within 15-30 minutes. Last time, a few people trickled in around noon, thinking they’d still be a part of it, but by noon most people had departed and a football game had broken out on the sand.

A Marin County 9/11 Truth meeting
Friday, May 11th at 7:00 PM
Sunrise Center in Corte Madera (Map
645 Tamalpais Dr
Corte Madera, CAHosted by Ken Jenkins, Byron Belitsos, and John Wright, the meeting has three purposes:
Details of these three purposes:
1) To explore the possibility of forming a Marin 9/11 Truth group to meet on an ongoing basis.
2) To generate awareness and support for an upcoming event June 15th in Marin with a leading light in the 9/11 Truth movement, Dr. Bob Bowman.
3) To co-create a three part 9/11 Truth film series at the Lark Theater.
1) There has long existed a Bay Area 9/11 Truth group, known as The Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance. It meets twice a month alternately in SF and Oakland. At this Marin meeting, we will explore the level of interest in starting a more regional Marin County/North Bay group, and if there is sufficient interest, when and where we might meet and what folks are interested in doing. Two general possibilities are a) a discussion/education group exploring evidence and other points of interest around 9/11, and b) an activist group to plan and do activities supporting 9/11 Truth. Depending on interest, there could be alternate meetings for each option, or a combined meeting with both agendas.
2) A leading light in the 9/11 truth movement, Dr. Bob Bowman ”the distinguished former "Star Wars" director under Reagan and most recently a Congressional candidate who ran a 9/11 truth platform—will be speaking in Marin on Friday evening, June 15, at Olney Hall. This event is cosponsored by the newly forming Marin 9/11 Truth and by Marin Peace and Justice Coalition. Marin is just one stop out of 120 cities on Bowman's Patriot Tour, whose goal is a government that will follow the Constitution, honor the truth, and serve the people. One of the goals of Bowman's Patriot's Tour unites progressives and conservatives to Take Back America.
3)Â A three part 9/11 Truth Film series at the Lark Theater has been proposed by Ken Jenkins and John Wright. The three films would be Press for Truth, 9/11 - The Myth and the Reality, and 9/11 Mysteries. Press for Truth features the "Jersey Girls", the 9/11 widows who forced our highly reluctant government to have an investigation into 9/11. One of the producers is a Marinite. 9/11 - The Myth and the Reality is the latest and best DVD made from presentations (given here in the Bay Area) by leading 9/11 author David Ray Griffin. It was produced and directed by Marinite Ken Jenkins. 9/11 Mysteries has become one of the most popular of the 9/11 Truth DVDs, with it's artistic and serious exploration of the fall of the three World Trade Center Towers on 9/11. If you would like to see this film series manifest, we would like your help.
So you can see there are lots of good reasons to come meet this one time, even if you don't personally have interest in any ongoing meetings, and especially if you do. Most of you agree that 9/11 Truth has enormous power to awaken our fellow citizens about the need for profound changes in our troubled country. Many would agree that 9/11 Truth has the most potential for deep change, urging a level of awakening which can lead to positive changes in many other arenas, such as peace, justice, environmental healing, and election reform, in short, to help reclaim our country. Please come join us in this great work!
And please RSVP by emailing Ken Jenkins- KenJenkins@aol.com.

I look forward to sitting down with everyone and sharing our ideas and comments. We can get to know each other and make big plans for June 11th! Remember the meetup is at 2pm on Sunday at the Martin Luther King Jr Library in San Jose. I personally havnt been there before so I cannot give a great place to meet, so I will just be right at the front of the library I guess!

It will be casual and Im always up for anything!

Robert Bowman is “the best public speaker in the country.” - Los Angeles Times
Let’s “Take Back America!”
ROBERT BOWMAN CALLS FOR AN INDEPENENT INVESTIGATION OF 9/11
Robert M. Bowman was the Director of Advanced Space Programs Development for the U.S. Air Force in the Ford and Carter administrations, and is a former United States Air Force Lieutenant Colonel with 101 combat missions. He holds a Ph.D. in Aeronautics and Nuclear Engineering from the California Institute of Technology.
Robert Bowman was a keynote speaker at the 9-11 Revealing the Truth Conference in Chicago in June of 2006: "A lot of people say that our government was warned, they knew this was going to happen and they did nothing. That is not true, if they had done nothing and just let normal procedures take their place those twin towers would still be standing and thousands of dead Americans would still be alive..."
Robert Bowman was a candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives in the 15th District in Florida in 2006, running as a 9/11 Truth candidate. In spite of receiving only one campaign dollar for every thirty his Republican opponent received, Bob Bowman garnered 44% of the vote.
Robert Bowman’s website is: www.thepatriots.us . An excerpt from his Home Page reads:
“We reject as totally inadequate the Kean-Hamilton-Zelikow 9/11 Commission Report which admittedly contains perjured testimony, refrains from assigning responsibility and accountability for our defense's failures, and fails to even address dozens of unanswered questions and obvious flaws in the Bush Administration's official story. We therefore demand a new and truly independent investigation of 9/11. We demand an investigation of the cover-up which followed 9/11 involving the confiscation and destruction of evidence, lying to investigators, and obstruction of justice. Finally, we demand an investigation of the exploitation of the 9/11 tragedy to launch unnecessary wars against Afghanistan and Iraq under false pretenses.”

Organizing a speaking event here for the hero of 9/11, William Rodriguez, tentatively scheduled for September or October.
Reaching out on the eleventh of every month at 11th and “L” Streets here, reminding and educating the public about 9/11 Truth, and the need for a real investigation. See truthaction.org

9/11 Press for Truth screening
Sunday, August 12, 2007, 7 pm
Forest Books 3080 16TH St. (near Valencia) San FranciscoThe Story
This movie will also be shown at the grand Lake Theater on September 11th, 1:20 pm as part of our 9/11 Truth Film Festival.Out of the grieving thousands left behind on September 11th, a small group of activist families emerged to demand answers. In 9/11 Press For Truth, six of them (including three of the famous "Jersey Girls") tell for the first time the powerful story of how they took on the powers in Washington—and won!—compelling an investigation, only to subsequently watch the 9/11 Commission fail in answering most of their questions.
The families eventually found an ally in Paul Thompson. Dissatisfied with the incomplete picture of September 11th presented in most news reports, Thompson became a citizen journalist of sorts. He stitched together thousands of rare overlooked news clips, buried stories, and government press conferences into a definitive Complete 9/11 Timeline (published by Harper Collins as The Terror Timeline). Press For Truth is adapted in part from his acclaimed work, which revealed to the families a very different picture of the road that led to the attacks and the resulting War on Terror, one that still today raises important and pressing questions.
Press For Truth premiered theatrically in September 2006 in New York City and the San Francisco Bay area. With the help of Robert Greenwald's Brave New Theaters, it was rolled out for a limited release in over fifty cities across America as well as Canada, Great Britain, the Czech Republic, Australia, and Japan.
The movie was immediately hailed by critics and enthusiastically embraced by a groundswell of concerned people worldwide who felt that the 9/11 Commission and the western news media had failed to account for many important issues.
Film: "9/11 Press for Truth"--San Jose
Saturday, August 11 7:00 p.m.
San Jose Peace Center
48 S. 7th St., San JoseCongressman Dennis Kucinich has announced that he will begin holding new hearings into 9/11 beginning in September because "the 9/11Commission Final Report... never resolved certain conflicts." The film '9/11 Press for Truth' details those conflicts. The film features five members of the 9/11 Family Steering Committee, the small group of victims' relatives who forced the creation of the 9/11 Commission. They reveal in the movie that "70% of our questions" were not answered by the 9/11 Commission Final Report.
Sponsored by the Silicon Valley Impeachment Coalition. Room capacity is 40, so RSVP at

The Story Field Conference August 26-31, 2007
Shambhala Mountain Center, Colorado(In the inivte there is a quote from David Korten:
a pioneering interdisciplinary gathering
of storytellers, artists and experts
called by the field of stories arising among us
in the midst of the storm"elements of civil society which are committed to liberating humanity from institutions of domination have a natural advantage in the domain of culture. To maintain control, the institutions of domination must justify themselves with falsified values of fabricated stories that contradict reality. By contrast, those of us devoted to the cause of justice, compassion, and sustainability need only encourage people to recognize, accept, and act on what they know in their hearts to be true.
I want to be sure that the Truth about 9/11 is part of the conversation, and I'll be attending the conference.)

Joe Klocek has appeared on Comedy Central's Live at Gotham and has gained a reputation for thought provoking social commentary. Tapan Trivedi is originally from India. He is best known for his sold out shows around the Bay; Pundits with Punchlines; a show about being Indian in America.
Ali Mafiis from Iran, gay and just trying to fit into some culture that does not wish him ill. A breaker of stereotypes and fiercely funny,Ali challenges any audience to not laugh at his experiences.
Boxcar. With a name like this you know you are going to hear a lot of the 60's counter culture comics. From Seattle, WA and a recent transplant to San Francisco, Boxcar puts a lot of things into punchlines that most people are afraid to say out loud.

The Eleventh Annual Bromsgrove 2007 Conference
Friday, the 5th October to mid-day Sunday 7th October 2007
Barnes Close, Bromsgrove, UKThe Bromsgrove Group recognizes:
1. The supply of money into the economy is the big issue which governs all the issues. The present economic system is debt-based. This means that virtually all money is supplied to the economy as a debt to be repaid, with interest, to the banking system. Governments rely upon the majority of people going into debt to the banking system simply to create enough money to supply the economy. Governments, too, must borrow from the banking system to fund public expenditure. Taxpayers must then pay back the debt and interest repayments.
Association in the Bromsgrove Group is open to individuals and organisations which support this statement of belief.2. As a consequence of this debt-based economic system, we see the indebtedness of people, families, and countries growing daily. The present debt-based economic system perpetuates debt slavery, and this is ultimately destructive of society, the environment, and the planet.
3. The banking system creates money out of nothing. We are concerned at the claim that there is no money to fund vital public services, industries, and social and environmental projects, when this money at source is created out of nothing. Governments should be able to supply money, debt-free, without having to borrow from the banking system. "Debt-free" means that it does not have to be repaid.
4. The debt-based economic system must be challenged and alternatives constructed. The economy needs a supply of money debt-free. Therefore, we affirm :
1. Money must be based on the real wealth of society people, skills and materials not on debt. The supply of money must relate to these physical facts not to the requirements of the banking system.
2. Money is the means of exchange for the goods and services produced by this real wealth. It is not a commodity itself.
3. The purpose of an economic system is to provide goods and services as, when and where required in order to satisfy human needs.
4. Money must be our servant not our master.
5. Money, at source, is created out of nothing, so there is no need for it to be scarce.
6. Whatever is physically possible and socially desirable can be made financially possible.
7. The present economic system can, and will, be changed for the better. Consequently, we propose :
1. That the government via a democratically accountable authority undertakes the creation of a supply of money, debt-free, into the economy.
2. This authority should spend, not lend, a supply of money into circulation on the basis of proven need. This will reduce the overall burden of debt in society, break reliance upon the banking system for the supply of money, and open potential for limitless change.
Respect is paid to the different options for change represented by different members within this statement of belief.
The group meets once a year and regularly exchanges information, inspiration and support.

Wednesday, October 24, 2007, 7:00 PM
Mt. Diablo Peace & Justice Center,
55 Eckley Lane, Walnut Creek
Richard Gage, AIA is the founding member of ae911Truth.org. He has been a practicing architect for 20 years and has worked on most types of building construction including numerous fire-proofed steel-framed buildings. He became interested in the 9/11 WTC high-rise “collapses” after hearing the startling conclusions of a reluctant 9/11 researcher, David Ray Griffin, on the radio in 2006, which launched his own unyielding quest for 9/11 Truth. Richard will present a slide show which provides evidence that the three World Trade Center buildings were felled by controlled demolition. The pieces of evidence include expert corroboration, foreknowledge of collapse, whistle blowers, government documentation and video documentation. When Richard gave this presentation at the Grand Lake Theater on September 11, 2007, he was given a standing ovation by the overflow crowd.

Last Man Out- William Rodriguez - 9/11 Hero World Tour November 1, 2007, 7 pm
Grand Lake Theater
3200 Grand Avenue
William Rodriguez
A True Hero on 9/11
and ever since then...With Special Guests- Peter Dale Scott, author of The Road to 9/11- Wealth, Empire, and the Future of America and Cindy Sheehan
Declared a hero for saving numerous lives at ground zero, William Rodriguez was a janitor on duty the morning of 9/11 who heard and felt explosions rock the basement sublevels of the North Tower before the jetliner struck the top floors. His testimony was omitted from the 9/11 Commission Report.
At great risk to his own life, William reentered the towers three times after the initial impacts and is believed to be the last person to exit the North Tower alive, surviving the building’s collapse by diving beneath a fire truck. After receiving medical attention at the WTC site for his injuries, he spent the rest of the day aiding in the rescue efforts as a volunteer, and at dawn the next day he was back to help rescue survivors.
In addition to being a spokesperson for the New York City first responders, William is also active in the movement for immigrant rights. He was a major force behind the campaign to encourage undocumented immigrant survivors and relatives of victims to come forward for help without fear of deportation. The group also raised funds for scholarships for children of immigrants killed or maimed in the attacks.
His firsthand account of his experiences that day challenges the official narrative, which claims that the towers' collapse had nothing to do with explosives. He has spoken throughout the world to share his story and to lobby for a genuine international inquiry into the events of 9/11--on behalf of those who died, the survivors, those whose health was compromised, and all who have suffered from bad policy decisions that were based on the official narrative of 9/11.
Meet a real hero. Hear his story. Followed by a reception for William and local heroes for 9/11 Truth,
Impeachment, Peace, and Justice. Now is the time for courage. Please join us!A Benefit for the Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance • sf911truth.org

World Peace Week or War on War Week From November 5th -- Guy Fawkes Day, the holiday that celebrates the grand-daddy of all fake war provocations -- the 400th anniversary was in 2005 -- through November 11th, Veterans Day: It commemorates the end of WWI on 11/11/1917, and the veterans and victims of this and all the other wars started by false pretexts. To end these wars, we have to awaken people to both the knowledge of how the war party incites war, and to sympathy for the fallen. These dates in November are a perfect time to remember both culprits and victims.
"The Guy Fawkes masks on the front of this card represent the character “V” from the comic book and movie V for Vendetta. V’s story is about one man’s struggle to inspire people to take back their freedom from a despotic government.
November 5th is Guy Fawkes Day. Even now, few understand the original Gunpowder Plot: Guy Fawkes was framed in a bogus “Catholic terrorist plot” to blow up the King and the Parliament. The real plot was royally successful: to invent a pretext for war with Catholic Spain. This fraud, which rallied popular opinion for a war with Spain, was the foundation of the British empire.
Was 9/11 another such frauda pretext to create a neocon empire? 100 million Americans think so.
Why?
In September of 2000, a group of neocons from the Project for the New American Century wrote of the need for a “new Pearl Harbor” in order to push for an aggressive expansion of the American Empire. One year later they got their wish when America was attacked on 9/11.
Was 9/11 a neocon scam? Please investigate this critical issue at 911truth.org and at patriotsquestion911.com.
If you don’t have access to the Internet, read David Ray Griffin’s The New Pearl Harbor.
Our leaders have promised us “a war that will not end in our lifetimes.” If we are ever to live free we must expose how governments use terror to achieve their goals. We must become like V and take our country back from despots.

Film Screening-HACKING DEMOCRACY Saturday, November 17th at 1:30 p.m.
Fremont Main Library
2400 Stevenson Blvd at Paseo PadreThe Tri-City Independent Documentary Series and Alameda County Libraries present a free screening of the film HACKING DEMOCRACY followed by discussion by Dr. David Dill, a computer scientist and Professor at Stanford University, who founded the Verified Voting Foundation because of his concerns about the security issues around electronic voting.
This outstanding documentary exposes the dangers of electronic voting machines, which now count about 90% of America's votes. Its real subject, the health of American democracy, could hardly be more important or timely.
Filmed over 3 years, this expose tracks investigations done by citizen activists as they take on the voting industry, targeting the Diebold Corporation. The film uncovers incendiary evidence from the trash cans of Texas to the ballot boxes of Ohio, exposing secrecy, votes in the trash, hackable software and election officials rigging the presidential recount.
This documentary has impact. Since the film was completed, two Ohio election staff featured in HACKING DEMOCRACY were sentenced on March 13th, 2007 for rigging the 2004 presidential recount. The film also spurred California's Secretary of State to commission a special report on voting machines by scientists at UC Berkeley.
Emmy award nomination for Outstanding Investigative Journalism.

Sacramento 9/11 Truth Action
January 11th, 2008
4:30-6:00 PM (feel free to come earlier or stay later...)
11th & L Streets, Sacramento (sidewalk on north side of state capitol)Bring signs, handouts, and other information to share with the public.
This Friday, January 11th, 2008 marks the resumption of 9/11 Truth Action in Sacramento, in solidarity with cities of this nation and around the world who participate in Truth Actions on the Eleventh of every month. Our goals are twofold:
1) to peacefully demand an investigation that follows the evidence for the crime called “9/11”, and to protest the lack of a real investigation, and
2) to inform people of the many facts about this crime which have gone unreported in the media, and covered up by the 9/11 Commission.For other general info: sac911truth [at] gmail.com

In a Zogby Poll released September 6, 2007:
51% of Americans Want Congress to Probe Bush/Cheney Regarding 9/11 Attacks 67% also fault 9/11 Commission for not investigating anomalous collapse of World Trade Center 7.
Clearly, a majority of Americans want a real investigation, and Truth about “9/11”.Silent Candlelight Procession to mark Six Years of Injustice at Guantanamo

America: From Freedom to Fascism
Aaron Russo’s compelling and troubling account of how the wealth of our nation was silently passed from its citizens to a handful of powerful bankers in 1913. That's the year the Federal Reserve Act and the 16th Amendment were introduced, giving a privately held corporation the means to control our finances while ensuring its interest payments through the strong arms of the newly-formed Internal Revenue Service. Ever since then, Russo suggests, Americans have been gradually conditioned to accept fewer freedoms and a lower standard of living... all the while considering debt and servitude as distinctly American values... 110 minutesNorthern California 9-11 Truth Alliance Meeting Thursday, January 17, 2007

The Dave Cline MLK Jr Memorial Peace Summit
Jan 18th-20th
San Francisco, CA
Participants include: Cindy Sheehan, DeDe Miller, Tiffany Burns, Jamilla El-Shafei and David Rubinson
Cindy Sheehan is convening the DAVE CLINE MLK Jr. MEMORIAL PEACE SUMMIT in San Francisco on January 18 and 19th and 20th. Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday weekend was chosen by Cindy because he exemplified a uniter, a peace maker and an advocate for non-violent constructive action.
Space is limited to 125 participants.
The goal of the summit is to bring together peace and justice leaders and delegates from all across the country so that we can begin to mend divisions and come together in solidarity to end the war and occupation in Iraq .
The agenda will include analyzing our strengths and weaknesses and our goals. We will be creating a unified strategy and an action plan which will include effective tactics that will put real pressure on our politicians.
We will work on a plan for a broad-based, grassroots, unified national mobilization in March to mark the 5th anniversary of the invasion of Iraq. The idea of bi-coastal demonstrations in San Francisco and Washington DC will be explored before the peace summit.

Sunday afternoon, February 10th, 4 pm
at 406 41st St., OaklandLast meeting was attended by 3 local candidates for Congress. How can we build support for challengers to the incumbents who are protecting Bush and Cheney from well-deserved impeachment? Challengers who are not beholden to corporations, who understand the havoc Bush and Cheney have wreaked on our country and our planet, and are prepared to bring the criminals to justice and clean up their mess?
Come to our meeting. Let's put our heads together, for the sake of our grandchildren.
Agenda:
1) Introductions
2) Assessment of current situation re impeachment
3) IBC strategy for this year- so far, the only one suggested is to focus on local Congressional races, find and support candidates who are challenging "off-the-table" incumbents, while continuing to lobby those incmbents to work for impeachment.
4) Internal IBC issuesCarol Wolman

Independent Media Catalyst and Founder of Vox Pop Tours West Coast Feb. 5-17Sander Hicks to speak on:
• The FBI murder of Dr. David Graham,
• The Bush/Cheney 9/11 cover-up,
• Confronting Rudy Giuliani,
• and how Vox Pop, his Fair Trade coffee house, is helping save the world.Sander Hicks hits the West Coast to ask the question… Who Killed Dr. Graham?
A 9/11 truth-seeker has died from foul play, and this time, the FBI is involved. Sander Hicks’ research in Shreveport, LA, has sparked coverage in many independent media outlets. The Graham death is the cutting edge of the 9/11 research, proving protection (or control) of the 9/11 “hijackers” by Pentagon, CIA and FBI.
Overall, US Federal government corruption is rampant. The bipartisan consensus on war and torture is morally bankrupt. But Hicks is a part of The call of a new movement:
How can we rejuvenate American politics, religion, and community?It’s time for a new network around fair trade economics, healthy food, grassroots activism, democratic media, spiritual rebirth, and third party politics. It starts now. Hicks’s original contribution is the working business model for the Vox Pop coffeehouse. Vox Pop already has its first store profitable in Brooklyn, NY, with three years experience under its belt. It’s time to grow the movement for peace, truth and Vox Pop!

Tri- City Screens"On the Line" March 8, 2008 (1:30 p.m.)
Fremont Main Library, 2400 Stevenson Blvd, Fremont
Discussion following the film led by Faye Butler and Louise Lynch. Both have been to the annual demonstration at Fort Benning, Georgia, where Lynch was arrested.
On The Line tells the story of the movement to close the School of the Americas, a U.S. Defense Department facility at Fort Benning, Georgia that trains Latin American soldiers. Referred to by some as "School of Assassins", many of its graduates have been criticized for human rights violations. For example, many of the officers cited in the murder of U.S. nuns, union leaders, journalists, and others in El Salvador were SOA graduates. The school was renamed in 2001 to The Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation. Up to 1,000 students attend the school - now open to civilians and non-Latin Americans - each year.
This film takes an inside look at the movement to close the school, which is one of the largest non-violent activist groups in the United States today - more than 20,000 people. (Next month- Loose Change - Final Cut)
The Tri-City Documentary Series shows films of political and social significance to receptive, involved audiences. To generate a sense of community and citizen involvement, each film is followed by an interactive discussion led by someone with expertise in a field related to the movie. Films so far have touched on topics such as global warming, the militarization of space, alternative modes of transportation, investigations into the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, and the war in Iraq. Please join the conversation.

Peace and Justice Movie Night- American Blackout
Tuesday, March 11, 7:30 pm
Fellowship Hall, First Baptist Church
305 N. California Ave (near Bryant), Palo Alto
American Blackout-featuring Cynthia McKinney Few things in a democracy are more sacrosanct than the right to vote, and in his furious documentary “American Blackout,” Ian Inaba assembles compelling evidence to support his claim that African-Americans who are traditionally more likely to vote Democratic are being deliberately and systematically excluded from the political process.Your outrage is waiting...
Anger and Irregularities at the Voting Booth
Disenfranchising African-Americans
Interviewing Congressional leaders, journalists and regular voters, Mr. Inaba begins by addressing the Florida debacle of 2000, arguing that behind the exhaustive coverage of hanging chads and faulty voting machines lies an underreported and more complex story of black disenfranchisement. In a strong middle section, the movie examines the political troubles of Representative Cynthia McKinney, a vocal critic of the Bush administration, suggesting that her ouster in 2002 was engineered by Republican crossover voting. A particularly powerful segment shows how at least one of Ms. McKinney’s statements about the Sept. 11 attacks was edited by some commentators to appear infinitely less reasonable than the original.
By the time we reach the 2004 general election, the anger in “American Blackout” is palpable. As we listen to voters complain about roadblocks and false felony records, and watch the endless lines of black voters standing patiently in the rain in Ohio, it’s impossible to ignore the gravity of the film’s claims. Though occasionally inflammatory one interviewee talks about being “slingshotted into slavery” “American Blackout” isn’t a conspiracy rant. It’s a methodical compilation of questions and irregularities that deserves a wider audience. (Text from New York Times movie review by Jeannette Catsoulis.)
One of the few genuine voices for change, truth, peace, justice in the US is Cynthia McKinney, a Green Party candidate for President, and one of the most courageous voices in Congress, until she was ousted by the Corporate Media, the Democrats, with assistance from Diebold voting machines... she should still be in Congress, now. Her last act before leaving was to introduce articles of impeachment against Bush and Cheney...

Impeachment Rally
CODEPINK ALERTTuesday, March 18, 2008- "Restore Our Constitution Day"
3:30-5 pm at Lytton Plaza in Palo Alto
RSVP BY TUESDAY TO JOIN THE CARAVAN.
We want lots of CodePink women, men and friends to join a caravan for national CODEPINK "RESTORE OUR CONSTITUTION DAY" this Tuesday, 3/18, to convince Bay Area Congressmembers to join the "Nixon Flooding Plan" to remove Dick Cheney from office in 1-3 months. Do Cheney first! This plan calls for Reps to begin flooding the House with their own impeachment resolutions, with or without co-sponsors, with one or more impeachable charges, such as those listed below* against Cheney/Bush. Once this starts, we believe Cheney will resign rather than face hearings. Nixon resigned 3 months after his hearings started.
The caravan will start from the East Bay & San Francisco. Beginning at 9:30 a.m. we'll join local impeachment activists to meet with Anna Eshoo, Palo Alto, Mike Honda, Campbell and Zoe Lofgren, San Jose, followed by a RALLY to "Put Impeachment on the Table", 3:30-5 pm at Lytton Plaza in Palo Alto. We're also asking Congressmembers and their staffs to join the CODEPINK "HUNGRY FOR IMPEACHMENT FAST" led by our own CodePink sister Leslie Evangeline to convince John Conyers to begin the hearings.
Outside the offices we'll have banners, signs saying "Honk for Impeachment", pink slipped ladies, songs for peace and impeachment. We're inviting the Raging Grannies and anyone to make music and chant. This will be great fun. We might even restore our constitution! VISUALIZE IMPEACHMENT

Gather at Market and Sansome Streets. Protest actions will be held at various SF offices of government officials and war profiteering corporations
Tomorrow on the 5-year-anniversary of the U.S. attack on Iraq, San Francisco will join some 300 cities throughout the United States that plan to resist the tragic and costly war and occupation. Coordinated by the group Direct Action to Stop the War, Bay Area residents from all walks of life will participate in nonviolent direct actions. Planned actions include:
7:30 am peaceful civil disobedience begins: War machine tours of shame leaving Sansome and Market throughout the day accompanied by the Brass Liberation Orchestra.

Other actions may included sit-ins and blockades of building entrances targeting the offices of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and war profiteering companies such as Bechtel, Chevron, the Carlyle Group and URS Corp.
The actions in San Francisco and throughout the United States will highlight the human cost of the war – which includes more than 1 million dead Iraqis* and 3,900 dead US soldiers – as well as the loss of nearly $2 trillion in funds that could have been spent on people’s basic human needs instead of on death and destruction in Iraq and Afghanistan.

FCC Public Hearing on the Future of the Internet
Thursday, April 17, 2008
12:00pm to 7:00pm
Dinkelspiel Auditorium, Stanford University
(471 Lagunita Drive, Palo Alto, CA)Make your voice heard:
Attend the Hearing
Comcast, AT&T and Verizon have given us a glimpse of a world without Internet freedom, and it's a chilling sight.
In recent months, these companies have been caught blocking, filtering and spying on your Internet activities. This month we have a chance to stop them from rolling back our online freedoms. In a rare move, all five FCC commissioners are coming to California to hear from you.
For the latest information, visit:www.savetheinternet.com/=stanford
The question before us is simple: Will we have a closed Internet controlled by a small handful of giant corporations, or an open Internet controlled by the people who use it?
The FCC hearing is one of our best chances to tell Washington policymakers that the Internet must remain open. Help us spread the word about this important event.
Tell Your Friends About the Stanford Hearing
At the FCC’s first hearing in Boston, Comcast was caught paying seat- fillers to pack the room and keep out the public (we have the proof). Now is the chance for us to fill the room with real people who care about innovation, competition, free speech and civil rights online. Will you attend this important event?

Let's make 9/11 Truth part of the National Dialogue.
This Week of Truth, to drive The Shell Game to the top 10, hopefully to #1, on the NY Times list, is a chance to create a nationwide laser beam, flexing the muscle of the entire movement on one focused action, which will be visible in mainstream corporate media, and can electrify/energize the activists out there who grow despondent.
Screening of the film LOOSE CHANGE: FINAL CUT Saturday, April 19th at 1:30 pm
FREMONT MAIN LIBRARY
2400 Stevenson Blvd at Paseo Padre
510-745-1401Tri-City Independent Documentary Series presents a free screening of the film LOOSE CHANGE: FINAL CUT. (2007) Directed by Dylan Avery and Corey Rowe.
Only three steel skyscrapers have ever collapsed - ostensibly as a result of fire - and all three came down in one day at the World Trade Center. In fact, one of them wasn't even hit by a plane. How could this be? How do we explain the near-perfect symmetry of their falls? Why did neither Dick Cheney nor Donald Rumsfeld order the Pentagon to be evacuated when it was known that a hijacked plane was racing toward it? If there is evidence that Osama bin Laden was behind the terrorist attacks, why did the Bush administration not provide it to the Taliban when they offered to turn him over? Why was bin Laden never even indicted, let alone killed or captured?
Staying close to established facts, Loose Change 911 attempts to answer these and other questions about the tragic events of that day. This is a carefully-researched, visually stunning film that evokes lively discussion.
Discussion to be led by Paul Rea- Researcher/writer, author of Still Seeking the Truth about 9/11. He has taught "The Politics of Age" and "Science, Technology, and Human Values" at St. Mary's College in Moraga, CA. Paul is now completing an updated, much-expanded book on the issues surrounding 9/11. www.TriCityPerspectives.org

Journalism That Matters: A Concept/Design Mashup for Journalists, Technologists, and Entrepeneuers
April 30th- May 3rd
Yahoo! Inc. Conference Center, Sunnyvale, California
Journalism’s ideals meet Silicon Valley’s tools in a three-day, conceptual mashup hosted by the Journalism That Matters Collaborative, the Media Giraffe Project, the Northern California Society of Professional Journalists (SPJ) and Yahoo! Inc.
NewsTools2008.org is three days to describe and invent tools for sustaining "journalism that matters." Strip away the legacy platforms, and what remains of journalism that is needed to support participatory democracy and community?
Spend a day describing those core values and essential elements. Then journalists and technologists together launch projects, form design circles and breakouts to conceive or deploy the best tools -- off the shelf and invented on-the-fly -- to put those values and elements into practice.

Press Conference for California Impeachment Slate Candidates
Tues, May 27th - noon
In front of San Francisco Chronicle offices, 901 Mission @ corner of 5thSAN FRANCISCO: “One year ago in Detroit,” says congressional candidate Brad Newsham, “Detroit City Council member Monica Conyers performed an outrage-ous act of political courage. Even though her husband, John Conyers -- chair of the House Judiciary Committee and one of America’s most powerful politicians – is staunchly anti-impeachment, Ms. Conyers introduced a pro-impeachment resolution that the Detroit council unanimously approved. Now we’re asking her to step up again. We want her to run for her husband’s seat in Congress.”
In some twenty districts across California, challengers are taking on the state’s incumbents. In San Franciso, Cindy Sheehan and Shirley Golub are challenging Nancy Pelosi. Newsham, organizer of the Beach Impeach events (below), is challenging Barbara Lee in the East Bay. On Tuesday, several of them will gather in San Francisco to publicize their slate and their invitation to Monica Conyers.
In addition to an Impeachment Slate for California Candidates, there are growing numbers of candidates forming a national coalition of Impeachment Candidates- the New Broom Coalition with the same imperative- Impeachment.
- Candidates planning to attend, with incumbents they're challenging in parentheses: Shirley Golub (Nancy Pelosi, June Primary); Cindy Sheehan (Pelosi, November General Election); Brad Newsham (Barbara Lee, June); Cynthia Papermaster (Pete Stark, Nov.); Ed Newman (Lynne Woolsey); Ann Catherine Keirns (Zoe Lofgren); Carol Brouillet (Anna Eshoo, Nov.); Carol Wolman (Mike Honda, Nov.)
[I could really use some support and help, especially holding banners- "Impeach the Terrorists!" and our beautiful key sign with "9/11 Truth = Peace symbol, and Impeach = Justice symbol, and to pass out literature and Deception Dollars. I can carry 4 more people from Palo Alto. - Carol Brouillet, 650-857-0927]

510-745-1400
Admission free
Winner of: Best Film, New Orleans Human Rights Film Festival 2007. Best Documentary, Norwegian Documentary Film Festival 2007. This revealing documentary presents a close portrait of an Arab-American family facing terrorism charges leveled by the U.S. government.
In February 2003, the FBI arrested university professor and political activist Sami Al-Arian in Tampa, Florida. Charged with supporting terrorism, he was placed in solitary confinement for 2 1/2 years before he received a trial.
The film follows Sami, his wife Nahla and their five children through the 6 month long trial and the difficult period after the verdict. It is a personal story of a family, who like many Muslims in the USA today, are fighting against increasing stigmatization and discrimination in a post 911-climate.
Discussion to follow led by a representative of American Muslim Alliance/California Civil Rights Alliance.

WINNER OF 26 INTERNATIONAL AWARDS! 10 Audience Choice Awards including the 2004 Sundance Film Festival.
Thought provoking, sweepingly informative, and often funny, THE CORPORATION is one of the great documentaries ever made. It includes interviews with 40 corporate insiders and critics - including Noam Chomsky, Naomi Klein, Milton Friedman, Howard Zinn, Vandana Shiva and Michael Moore - plus true confessions, case studies and strategies for change.
Much more than a movie, The Corporation has transformed audiences and dazzled critics with its insightful and compelling analysis. Living up to its title, the film explores the true nature and spectacular rise of the dominant economic institution of our time. Taking a corporation's status as a legal "person" to the logical conclusion, the film puts the corporation on the psychiatrist's couch to ask "What kind of person is it?" Unfortunately for all of us, the diagnosis does not suggest a healthy effect on the body politic.
Discussion will be led by Sharat G. Lin, PhD of the San Jose Peace & Justice Center. He writes on global political economy, the Middle East, India, and labor migration.

Professor David Ray Griffin is professor emeritus at the Claremont School of Theology, where he taught for over thirty years. He has authored or edited over two dozen scholarly books. Prof. Griffin was initially very skeptical of claims of a major cover-up around 9/11. But in April of 2003, he began examining the evidence and became convinced of a major cover-up around 9/11. He then devoted himself to writing The New Pearl Harbor (2004).
Following the publication of the government's 9/11 Commission Report, he wrote The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions and Distortions (2005). Two more important books followed in 2006, Christian Faith and the Truth Behind 9/11 and 9/11 and American Empire: Intellectuals Speak Out (co-edited with fellow WantToKnow.info Team member, Peter Dale Scott). In 2007 Prof. Griffin published his most remarkable book on 9/11, Debunking 9/11 Debunking, a detailed response to the well-funded official and semi-official attempts to debunk the 9/11 Truth movement.
His most recent book, 9/11 Contradictions: An Open Letter to Congress and the Press, published in March, 2008, focuses on serious internal contradictions within the official story. His books have been translated into several languages, and have convinced many key people of the need for a truly independent investigation into that fateful day.

9/11 Dust and Deceit at The World Trade Center (59 min) 2007
By Penny Little (She will be attending)
The impact of the environmental disaster after 911 will continue for years. The health of those who were exposed to the toxic dust and told that the “air is safe to breathe” and the continuing cover-up of the problems has not been adequately reported in the mainstream media. Those who were most affected are often the least able to get the help they need.The Toxic Clouds of 9/11: A Looming Health Disaster (66 min) 2006
By Allison Johnson
In this absorbing video we see the effect of the chemicals and toxins released into the environment by the collapse of the WTO towers. Despite the growing risk from these dangerous substances EPA director Christie Todd Whitman told the workers involved in the cleanup after the collapse that everything was safe to breath and later that it was safe for residents to return. The catastrophe and cover-up of 9/11 health costs is still going on for the workers, people who went to help and those who lived in the neighborhood.Trade unionist John Sferazo from Iron Workers Local 361 and IUOE Local 138 will attend and discuss his efforts to defend the first responders. Sferazo is President and Co-Founder of Unsung Heroes Helping Heroes

Remember the firefighters, the police, health care servers, communication workers, the sanitation workers, the security guards, and janitors and others working in NYC after 9-11? These were the uniformed and un-uniformed "first responders" who worked along side the debris at the World Trade Center. Once the Environmental Protection Agency announced "the air and water are safe" many thousands returned and developed "World Trade Center cough." Exposure to the dirt and dust has resulted in respiratory failures for thousands of people. Months after being told things were OK people continue to suffer. Wednesday, we will reveal the story of ordinary workers living with the effects of chemical exposures and community efforts to protect their health benefits and future well being.
LaborFest hosts the filmmaker, Penny Little as well as John Sferazo of Iron Workers 361 New York. He co-founded "Unsung Heroes Helping Heroes." Together they will expose the dangers the dust, fire and volatile chemicals-be they mercury, PCB's, lead, dioxins, and asbestos that became a combined incinerator in Manhattan. Tonight we can support the people who risked their lives to save others and assure they get the proper treatment and health care.

Sunday, July 27, 2008
Noon- 8pm
(Serious Discussion/Decision making 3pm - 6 pm)Last year we held a Retreat to plan our August/September events at my home (in Palo Alto). It was a fun/productive gathering and our subsequent events were a success. We are still trying to figure out what to do precisely for this August/September 11th at the Grand Lake Theater. If you would like to come to the retreat and help with the upcoming events & newsletter... I hope you can join us next Sunday, July 27th at my house. I plan on making food (but some people want me to spend more time facilitating and participating in the discussion- so if we turn it into a potluck, I might have more time to be part of the circle). This will also be a chance for me to celebrate with friends the good news that the biopsy results show the cysts in my pancreas are benign. Call, or email to RSVP and get directions to my house. 650-857-0927, cbrouillet@igc.org Carol AND, If you want to help, but can't come next Sunday- please let us know what you can do, and any of your ideas/suggestions.

Film Premiere- The Reflecting Pool August 4, 2008, 7 PM
Pacific Film Archive
2575 Bancroft Way
Berkeley, CA
(510) 642-1412The Reflecting Pool follows an investigation by a skeptical Russian-American journalist who teams up with the father of a 9/11 victim to fact check the official version of the tragedy as documented in the 9/11 Commission Report. As they examine evidence and interview key eyewitnesses, the official story begins to crumble. The Reflecting Pool is the first investigative drama to present this issue in the spirit of such films as All the President's Men and JFK.
The film illustrates that, as so often is the case, the truth does not set you free; it ties your stomach and conscience into knots. It will remind you of All the President's Men and JFK, films that also used drama to pursue political truths. Writer/Director Jarek Kupsc plays Alex Prokop, a successful journalist who receives a mysterious 9/11 videotape revealing new information on the attack. Joseph Culp appears as Paul Cooper, the man who sent the tape and a driven researcher whose daughter died on 9/11. Though skeptical of conspiracy theorists and fearful that it will jeopardize his career, Prokop agrees to take on the story.
We follow Prokop and Cooper as they investigate the destruction of evidence from Ground Zero, the collapse of the 47-story WTC Building Seven, and the airliner attack on the Pentagon. The results of their investigation suggest the official version as presented in the 9/11 Commission Report purposely ignored or omitted evidence and testimonies to protect people in political positions, including the present administration. Prokop, plagued by the ghosts of his Communist childhood and trying to uphold the independence of American journalism, struggles to come to grips with this awful truth.
The Reflecting Pool is an intense, sobering analysis of the most controversial tragedy of our time -- a thought-provoking study of a search for truth and the profound consequences of not looking for it any further than the nightly news.
Selected reviews
"The Reflecting Pool presents a story that I have not taken the time or courage to touch."
--Barbara Trent, Academy Award Winner, The Panama Deception"The film illustrates that, as so often is the case, the truth does not set you free; it ties your stomach and conscience into knots. It will remind you of All the President's Men and JFK, films that also used drama to pursue political truths."
--Joel Hirschhorn, Op-ed news"The script is top-notch, the characterizations moving. If the film has a flaw, it's in trying to document so much evidence in a narrative thriller. Yet by and large, it pulls it off to deliver a chilling and effective message -- maybe it can happen here."
--Jim Cirile, Screenwriters MagazineAbout The Reflecting Pool:
The Reflecting Pool premiered theatrically through American Cinematheque to a standing-room only audience on January 31, 2008, at the Aero Theatre in Santa Monica, CA. The film screened in limited runs in February and March in Los Angeles, San Luis Obispo, and continues with other selected screenings. The film is an official selection this summer at the Maine International Film Festival in July and the Moondance International Film Festival in August. The film was recently picked up by Rialto Theaters in New Zealand for this September.
About the filmmakers:
The Reflecting Pool was independently produced and financed by Baltazar Works with Jodie Baltazar and Joseph Culp serving as producers. The Reflecting Pool is director Jarek Kupsc's third feature film. He won multiple awards for his debut feature Recoil and won Best Picture for Slumberland in his native Poland. Kupsc gives his view: "Most of all we wanted to tell a human story about what happens to people when the truth is kept from them and show the struggle one must go through for their own sense of integrity." He continues, "September 11th, 2001, was a defining moment in modern history--an event that propelled America toward preemptive wars under false pretenses resulting in the deaths of over a million civilians in the Middle East, thousands of American troops, and a complete disregard for the Geneva Conventions not to mention the Bill of Rights." Culp says, The Reflecting Pool is a way of taking stock of what has happened to our country after 9/11 and to do the most American thing of all--ask questions and demand honest answers."

Film Screening of- The Reflecting Pool Wednesday, August 27, 2008, 7:00 PM
Mt. Diablo Peace & Justice Center
55 Eckley Lane, Walnut CreekThe Reflecting Pool (1 hr, 46 min)
The Reflecting Pool is the first investigative drama to address 9/11 in the spirit of such films as All the President's Men and JFK. It follows an investigation by a skeptical Russian-American journalist who teams up with the father of a 9/11 victim to fact check the official version of the tragedy as documented in the 9/11 Commission Report. The results of their investigation suggest the official version as presented in the Report purposely ignored or omitted vital evidence and testimonies to protect people in political positions, including the present administration. Whether you see yourself as a truth seeker, patriotic American, independent thinker or voter, or just someone with bad memories of 9/11, you should make an effort to view The Reflecting Pool. It is not about 9/11. It is about the credibility of the official government story about 9/11. This film is an intense, sobering analysis of the most controversial tragedy of our time. Drawn from established sources and based on verifiable facts, The Reflecting Pool is a thought-provoking study of a search for truth and the profound consequences of not looking for it any further than the nightly news.

I think those cops last time were dead wrong about where we could be, but if we are discreet, it shouldn't be a problem. We can always go to Powell and Market if need be. Or we could just go across the street like they told us to and probably reach even more people on the densely packed sidewalks.)

8:00-9:00 – House of Rep District 14 – (4 candidates-1 seat open)
During each race’s time period, we ask each candidate to make a 3 minute introductory speech. League will provide a timer to assure that you will not go over the limit. (Candidates will draw numbers for order of speaking.) Audience participation: Cards will be provided for written questions. After the first race’s candidates have spoken, the League Moderator will read the audience’s questions to those candidates. Even if a question is asked of one candidate, the others will be asked if they want to answer that same question. Near the end of the race’s time period candidates will have 1 minute to make a last appeal to the voters present.(I am the Green Party candidate in District 14- one reason I am running is because I was thrown out of a candidate's forum and my question not asked in 2004, when all the candidates were content with the 9/11 Cover-up Commission. While I originally was running to raise that issue and pursue impeachment, at the moment I am running to give voice to the taboo issues such as 9/11 Truth, impeachment, the current "state of emergency" which is giving unprecedented power to the executive branch, obliterating our Constitution, our civil rights, and criminalizing dissent.)
Congresswoman Eshoo will be there. This is an opportunity to raise the hard questions to her. In 2006, I looked forward to posting the forum on the internet. There was no press at the event which was filmed, unfortunately the quality of the filming was so bad that it wasn't even worth showing on community access tv, because it was practically unintelligible. If anyone could do a decent job of recording or filming it, I would greatly appreciate it.

He also is in the East Coast and needs help getting word out about this event.)“Richard Hayes Phillips worked day and night for three years compiling irrefutable evidence of how the Republicans stole the 2004 presidential race in Ohio. This landmark investigation is a testament to what private citizens can accomplish when government officials fail to protect our right to vote and to count those votes as cast. Every American – Republican and Democrat – should read this book, and join the fight for democracy’s most fundamental right.”

ANNIE MACHON, Former MI5 agent, acclaimed author, internationally renowned whistleblower, and co-chair of the British 9/11 Truth Campaign
ANNIE MACHON was educated at Cambridge, and later spent six years as an intelligence officer for MI5, the British agency analogous to our FBI, working against political "subversives" and Irish and Middle Eastern terrorist targets. In 1997, she blew the whistle on the crimes and incompetence of the British spy agencies with her then-partner and colleague, David Shayler, and MI6 agent (MI6 is the British equivalent of the CIA)... After blowing the whistle, Annie and David went on the run, living in exile in France for three years to avoid arrest and imprisonment, not just of themselves but also friends, family, supporters and journalists... This and more is detailed in her book Spies, Lies and Whistleblowers: MI5, MI6 and the Shayler Affair. Since 2002, Annie has been an active peace and civil rights campaigner and is currently the co-chair of the British 9/11 Truth Campaign. She is also now involved in a new peace campaign called Make Wars History, which aims to hold our political leaders to account using the international laws of war, and on building an international think tank.

AMI 2008 Monetary Reform Conference September 25- 28, 2008
ChicagoTwo Themes of the Conference: Usury and Warfare
"First, This conference will examine the problem of usury. What is it exactly? Is it a necessary part of 'free market economics,' or is it a destroyer of nations, or is it both? How does monetary reform remove this problem? The present false definition of usury as excessive interest, was foisted on economics by Jeremy Bentham, who also devised utilitarianism - dropping morality in favor of supposed results. But the real concept of usury is the anti-social misuse of the money mechanism for private gain. The conference aims to help revive this classical concept of usury and relate it to how our present privatized monetary system malfunctions, for example in creating the present banking crisis."

Film: "9/11 Mysteries" Monday, September 29th
Blanchard Room of Davis Stevens Library
315 E 14th Street
DavisThe 9/11 Truth Film Series continues on Monday, September 29 with the screening of 9/11 Mysteries, a documentary about the intentional demolitions of three of the World Trade Center buildings.
The 90-minute film is a careful deconstruction of the official conspiracy story set alongside clean, clear science. Pure demolition evidence and analysis, laced with eye opening witness testimonials. This 9/11 picture is not one of politics or nationalism or loyalty, but one of strict and simple physics: How do you get a 10-second,110-story pancake collapse of a major structure?
This is the story of demolition blasting itself; how shaped charges are strategically placed to slice through steel beams, allowing total control of how, where and when a building falls. This information helps give a better understanding of how a building can be purposely set to collapse and shed insight into what happened on the fateful day of 9/11.
The film, hosted by Rodney Robinson, begins at 7 P.M. Admission is free, donations are appreciated. A discussion will follow the film.

On Saturday, October 11th, 9/11 Truth Action in Sacramento will hold a Vigil in solidarity with many other cities who participate in 9/11 Truth Actions on the eleventh of every month.
This Vigil, by calling attention to the many facts of "9/11" deliberately omitted from the U.S. media*, encourages others to also question the "official version" of what happened. The more people become informed, the greater the possibility of a real investigation, and the lesser the possibility of another similar "false flag" attack.
*such as the implosion of WTC Building 7. See wtc7.net/articles/kimball/thirdskyscraper.html

While ministering to prisoners there, he objected to the cruel and degrading abuses to which they were subjected. He was then arrested and imprisoned in a Naval brig for 76 days in Sept. 2003, falsely accused of spying and aiding terrorists. He was held in solitary confinement and subjected to the same sensory deprivation techniques that were being used against the prisoners. After months of investigation, all charges were dropped. Yee received an Honorable Discharge from the Army in 2005 and was awarded the Army Commendation medal for “exceptional meritorious service”. His gripping account of his Guantanamo experience and subsequent struggle for justice is entitled “For God and Country: Faith and Patriotism under Fire”.

Impeachment! Action at the SF Chronicle Thursday, Oct 23, 12-1 pm
In front of the San Francisco Chronicle Building
901 Mission St., San Francisco
( One block from Market Street and the Powell Street BART Station.) BRING: Your signs!!!! (I will bring Impeach the Terrorists! Pelosi on a Peach, Deception Dollar banners & the sound system with Impeachment/ and 9/11 songs...and Deception Dollars...)Every Thursday at noon since mid-September, a group of sign-carrying activists have been walking circles around the Chronicle Building, drawing attention to the Chronicle’s coddling of Nancy Pelosi, keeping Impeachment out of the public discourse, and its willful ignoring of the Cindy Sheehan campaign. On the 23rd, Cindy Sheehan (and perhaps other notables) will meet the media on the steps of the old Mint (just across the street). At 12:20, protesters will start walking circles around the Chronicle Building. Walkin will continue for approx 20 minutes, allowing office workers time to get back to work.

Admission is free, donations are appreciated. A discussion will follow the film.ZERO: AN INVESTIGATION INTO 9/11
This Italian film has one central thesis - the official version of events surrounding the attacks on 9/11 can not be true. This film explores the latest scientific evidence and reveals dramatic new witness testimony. If the film's thesis is correct, the justification for declaring the war on terror is built on a series of outrageous lies.
Press Conference- Carol Brouillet for Congress TV Ad Launch Tuesday, October 28, 2008
10 am- 10:30 Am
Congresswoman Eshoo's Office
698 Emerson Street
Palo Alto, CAGreen Party candidate Carol Brouillet will speak, show the ad, pass out DVD copies to the press. (It is posted on YouTube at www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNF4CMIY8uk )
Text of the ad:
On 9/11, three skyscrapers were felled by two planes, World Trade Center 7, the Patriot Act, the financial crash, the bailout, all share characteristics of controlled demolitions, criminal fraud, and treason. We the people, need the courage to seek and speak the truth. We need to investigate the big lies. We need to arrest, impeach the terrorists. We need to defend our Constitution, our rights, our lives. I am Carol Brouillet, Green Party Candidate for Congress and I approve this message. Vote Green for truth, peace and justice.
The ad is scheduled to air over 200 times in California's 14th District. Eshoo voted for the bailout.
In the 90s, Brouillet was a critic of corporate globalization and a strong advocate for local currencies and monetary reform, in her paper Evolution of the Apocalypse- Empire’s Demise- Human Renaissance she notes that those most responsible for 9/11 and the global financial bubble have been promoted and rewarded rather than tried for their role in criminal frauds.
Eshoo’s resistance to impeachment, to a real investigation of 9/11, to securing civil liberties and voting rights prompted Brouillet to run in 2006 and 2008. In 2008, Brouillet was elected to the Santa Clara Green Party County Council.
On September 11th, 2001 the US went into “Continuity of Government.” Congress has been denied access to the classified Continuity of Government plans. We know that Cheney and Rumsfeld worked on the Continuity of Government plans for two decades prior to Bush’s election and that within the plans, Congress has been deemed “expendable.” On September 11th, 2008 Brouillet organized the 4th Annual 9/11 Film Festival which included American, German and Italian documentaries questioning the official story of 9/11 and speakers such as Peter Dale Scott and ex-congressman, Dan Hamburg addressing “Continuity of Government” and the current Constitutional crisis which is getting worse.
(Supporters welcome. Yard signs for Cynthia McKinney and Carol Brouillet will be available, and free DVDs of Behind Every Terrorist- There is a Bush for those who would like them.)

The Tri-City Independent Documentary Series - The 11th Hour Saturday, November 15, 1:30 pm
Fremont Main Library
2400 Stevenson Blvd at Paseo Padre
510-745-1400
Wheelchair accessibleAdmission free.
Narrated by Leonardo DiCaprio, The 11th Hour (2007) describes the present moment, quite possibly the last one when change is possible to save the Earth's environment. This important film explores how humanity has arrived at this moment; how we live, how we impact the Earth's ecosystems, and what we can do to change course. Global warming, deforestation, mass extinctions and depletion of the marine habitats are all addressed. Mustering the full filmic resources of progressive Hollywood, The 11th Hour documents the environmental crises we face and the solutions we can begin to implement.
The cast could not be more stellar. Over 50 leading scientists, thinkers and leaders present the facts and discuss the most important issues that face us and our planet. Featuring reformer Mikhail Gorbachev, radio commentator Thom Hartmann, physicists Stephen Hawking & Vandana Shiva, Nobel Laureate activist Wangari Maathai and many other insightful thinkers, The 11th Hour gets to the roots of our environmental problems. One is reminded of Einstein's famous quote: "If mankind is to survive, it will require a whole new way of thinking."
However, the most powerful element of this historic film is not its graphic portrait of a planet in crisis, but its offering of hope and solutions. The film ends with a call for restorative action through doable reshaping human activity.
Please take a look at the trailer:
www.11thhouraction.com/trailerDiscussion will be led by Dr. Paul W. Rea, author and environmental activist with ongoing concerns about the natural world and our characteristic attitudes toward it.

PROJECT CENSORED 2009
Come and hear Dr. Peter Phillips, longtime Director of Sonoma State University's Project Censored, and PC Assistant Director Mickey Huff detail the last year's most important and unreported news stories and social issues, and the unique process~ for-credit college course-work~ that produces this crucial investigative work as we celebrate and promote the most recent publication of "Censored: Media Democracy in Action." Books will be for sale. Haitian great Diego Jameau, "The Whistler," will offer music. Audience Q & A with Professors Phillips and Huff will follow the presentation.
Founded by Carl Jensen in 1976, Project Censored is a media research program working in cooperation with numerous independent media groups in the US. Project Censored’s principle objective is the training of SSU students in media research and First Amendment issues and the advocacy for, and protection of, free press rights in the United States. Project Censored has trained over 1,500 students in investigative research in the past three decades. Through a partnership of faculty, students, and the community, Project Censored conducts research on important national news stories that are underreported, ignored, misrepresented, or censored by the US corporate media. Each year, Project Censored publishes a ranking of the top 25 most censored nationally important news stories in the yearbook, Censored: Media Democracy in Action, which is released in September. Recent Censored books have been published in Spanish, Italian and Arabic. The Project works in cooperation with SSU academic classes Sociology of Media and Sociology of Censorship, where students earn credit for their research and participate in writing the annual yearbook. Additionally, Project Censored sponsors and supervises over 60 student interns a year who do in depth investigative research, sponsor campus events and speakers, and organize an annual national Media Accountability Conference. Students also participate in writing the Project Censored quarterly newsletter (circulation 9,000) and assist with maintaining the Project Censored website www.projectcensored.org, which receives over a million views a month from all over the world. Between 700 and 1000 stories are submitted to Project Censored each year from journalists, scholars, librarians, and concerned citizens around the world. With the help of more than 200 Sonoma State University faculty, students, and community members, Project Censored reviews the story submissions for coverage, content, reliability of sources and national significance. The university community selects 25 stories to submit to the Project Censored panel of judges who then rank them in order of importance. Current or previous national judges include: Noam Chomsky, Susan Faludi, George Gerbner, Sut Jhally, Frances Moore Lappe, Michael Parenti, Herbert I. Schiller, Barbara Seaman, Erna Smith, Mike Wallace and Howard Zinn. All 25 stories are featured in the yearbook, Censored: The News That Didn’t Make the News. Project Censored is administered through the SSU Sociology Department with financial support from the SSU Instructionally Related Activity Fund, School of Social Science, Media Freedom Foundation Inc. and donations from thousands of supporters around the country.

Los Altos Youth Center
1 South San Antonio Rd.
Los AltosI received this from a friend in the Silicon Valley Impeachment Coalition who wrote:
"This upcoming talk may be a good opportunity to challenge the foundations of the U.S. empire. Prepare a couple of questions dealing with some of the worst abuses in the "war on terror" to send a clear message that we reject American foreign policies. It would be great if enough of us attend and support each other's positions that the audience appears overwhelmingly hostile to the empire."
Event website: http://www.itsyourworld.org/assnfe/ev.asp?ID=2401
Speaker: Kevin Dixon, Lieutenant Colonel, National Security Fellow, Hoover Institution
Lieutenant Colonel Kevin Dixon is a national security affairs fellow for 2008-2009 at the Hoover Institution. Lieutenant Colonel Dixon represents the US Air Force.
Description: Lieutenant Colonel Dixon is an intelligence officer, with experience in tactical, theater and national intelligence operations. His most recent assignment was as Commander, 31st Intelligence Squadron, Fort Gordon, Georgia. He has supported operations in Korea, Bosnia, Iraq and Afghanistan through a variety of airborne and ground-based intelligence assignments. He has also supported information operations development and served as a missile systems engineer. Lieutenant Colonel Dixon's staff tours include Headquarters, Air Force Special Operations Command; Headquarters, United States Air Force; and the Office of the Secretary of Defense.

Event Details- What are the current and future US intelligence needs? Dramatic changes in the global environment have led to more complex and interconnected intelligence requirements. These changes include a disbursed and varied array of regional and non-state coverage needs as well as evolving technical resources. Overlaying and adding to the challenges for the intelligence community are a new presidential administration and organizational changes accompanied by intensified public oversight. Lieutenant Colonel Kevin Dixon is an intelligence officer, experienced in tactical, theater and national intelligence operations.

Screening of 9/11 Press for Truth Friday, March 13, 2009, 7 pm
Berkeley Fellowship of Unitarian Universalist Hall
1924 Cedar Street (at Bonita Avenue)
Berkeley
9/11 Press for Truth is one of the best introductory films to 9/11 Truth. Here's an overview-
Out of the grieving thousands left behind on September 11th, a small group of activist families emerged to demand answers. In 9/11 Press For Truth, six of them (including three of the famous "Jersey Girls") tell for the first time the powerful story of how they took on the powers in Washington—and won!—compelling an investigation, only to subsequently watch the 9/11 Commission fail in answering most of their questions.
The families eventually found an ally in Paul Thompson. Dissatisfied with the incomplete picture of September 11th presented in most news reports, Thompson became a citizen journalist of sorts. He stitched together thousands of rare overlooked news clips, buried stories, and government press conferences into a definitive Complete 9/11 Timeline (published by Harper Collins as The Terror Timeline). Press For Truth is adapted in part from his acclaimed work, which revealed to the families a very different picture of the road that led to the attacks and the resulting War on Terror, one that still today raises important and pressing questions.
Press For Truth premiered theatrically in September 2006 in New York City and the San Francisco Bay area. With the help of Robert Greenwald's Brave New Theaters, it was rolled out for a limited release in over fifty cities across America as well as Canada, Great Britain, the Czech Republic, Australia, and Japan.
The movie was immediately hailed by critics and enthusiastically embraced by a groundswell of concerned people worldwide who felt that the 9/11 Commission and the western news media had failed to account for many important issues. For these thousands, Press For Truth was the rational, skeptical, mainstream motion picture examination of the events of September 11th they had been eagerly awaiting.
On the fifth anniversary of the attacks, Press For Truth aired throughout the Middle East on the Al Jazeera television network. It was soon purchased by TV stations in Spain, Norway, Poland, and all of South America.

Berkeley
Richard Gage, AIA is the founding member of ae911Truth.org. He has been a practicing Architect for 20 years and has worked on most types of building construction including numerous fire-proofed steel-framed buildings. He most recently performed Construction Administration services for a new $120M High School campus including a $10M steel-framed Gymnasium, and he worked on the Design Development for a very large mixed use urban project with 1.2M sq.ft. of retail and 320K sq.ft. of mid-rise office space — altogether about 1,200 tons of steel framing.
Richard became interested in the 9/11 WTC high-rise “collapses” after hearing the startling conclusions of a reluctant 9/11 researcher, David Ray Griffin, on the radio in 2006, which launched his own unyielding quest for 9/11 Truth.

Invisible History: Afghanistan's Untold Story with Elizabeth Gould & Paul Fitzgerald Tuesday May 19, 6:00 - 9:00 PM
Mt. Diablo Peace & Justice Center
55 Eckley Lane, Walnut Creek$20 suggested donation and a dish to share at the potluck. Benefits the Peace Center and the charity of our speakers' choice.

Wheel chair accessible
Join us for a potluck dinner and presentation by the first American journalists in Afghanistan during the Soviet invasion. We will find out what they have learned, what are the possibilities and what we can do to influence the outcome.
Paul Fitzgerald and Elizabeth Gould are a husband and wife team of international journalists who, after 3 decades of closely working in and on Afghanistan, are considered among our top experts on this troubled land.
In 1981 they were the first TV journalists working in Afghanistan during the Soviet invasion producing stories for the CBS Evening News, for ABC Nightline and a documentary for PBS: Afghanistan Between Three Worlds.
During the 1990's they worked with Oliver Stone piecing together ancient manuscripts with newly declassified documents on the Afghan crisis that allowed them to find a profound likeness between Washington's official policy towards this area and the ancient Zoroastrian war of the light against the dark - whose origins began in the region now known as Afghanistan. It is a likeness that grows more visible as America's involvement deepens. They present this work in the form of a novel called The Voice (see www.grailwerk.com).
Their latest book, Invisible History: Afghanistan's Untold Story, lays bare why it was inevitable that the Soviet Union and the U.S. should end up in Afghanistan and what this means for America's future - www.invisiblehistory.com.
"The fog obscuring U.S. policies in Afghanistan is thicker than elsewhere in the region. [Fitzgerald and Gould] cut through it meticulously, exposing layers of cultural arrogance and myopia. They demonstrate with painful clarity how these traits helped push our would-be ally into the Soviet orbit, causing us to arm and promote the violent extremists we're fighting today. When confronted with al-Qaeda's nihilism on 9/11, our response was 'wildly exaggerated, dangerously reckless, and ... ineffective.'"

First Baptist Church
305 N. California Avenue, Palo Alto
The war in Afghanistan is far from over — in fact, the turbulence is escalating. Seven years after 9/11, the Taliban continue to regroup, attack, and claim influence over much of the region.
Invisible History presents a fresh, comprehensive analysis of Afghanistan's political history that begins at the roots of tribal leadership and ultimately emphasizes our current political moment and the impact of ongoing U.S. military intervention. Fitzgerald and Gould tell the real story of how the U.S. came to be in Afghanistan and what we can expect next.
(Paul and Liz spoke at the SF Int'l Inquiry into 9/11. Their passion for decades has been trying to get out the real story of Afghanistan.)
PAUL FITZGERALD and ELIZABETH GOULD, a husband and wife team, began their experience in Afghanistan in 1981 for CBS News and produced a documentary, Afghanistan Between Three Worlds, for PBS. In 1983 they returned for ABC Nightline and contributed to the MacNeil/Lehrer News Hour. They have continued to research, write and lecture about Afghanistan history and U.S. foreign policy since.

Conspiracy Con 2009 June 6-7, 2009
Santa Clara, CaliforniaMany featured Speakers on a variety of topics. Including- Richard Gage, AIA,s the founder of Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth – (ae911Truth.org.). He has been a practicing Architect for 20 years and has worked on most types of building construction, including numerous fire-proofed, steel-framed buildings. He has recently performed Construction Administration services for a new $120M High School campus in the SF Bay Area, including a $10M steel-framed Gymnasium. He managed the construction documents phase of a large mixed use urban project in Nevada with 1.2M square feet of retail and 320K square feet of mid-rise office space — altogether about 1,200 tons of steel framing.
Richard became interested in the 9/11 WTC high-rise “collapses” after hearing the startling conclusions of a reluctant 9/11 researcher, David Ray Griffin, on the radio in 2006, which launched his own unyielding quest. Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth is the result of that quest and is a non-partisan association of architects, engineers and affiliates who are dedicated to exposing the falsehoods and to revealing the truths about the “collapses” of the World Trade Center high-rises on 9/11/01.
His presentation (3:15 pm Sunday):
9/11 - BLUEPRINT FOR TRUTH: The Architecture of Destruction - Where do we go from here?
Richard Gage will examine closely the forensic evidence found at the crime scene of the destruction of the three World Trade Center high-rise towers on 9/11! Already, over 600 Architects and Engineers have found that this evidence points to a series of deceptive explosive controlled demolitions. Learn about the mysterious WTC Building 7, which collapsed at free-fall acceleration in just 6.5 seconds and imploded into a neat pile like a house of cards on the afternoon of 9/11. Did you know that the official Government report blames just 8 to 10 scattered fires as the cause of the symmetrical collapse (of 400 structural steel connections per second) due to a “new phenomena” called thermal expansion?
Learn also about the massive evidence at the Twin Towers for extremely explosive events, which produced near free-fall acceleration, lateral ejection, completely missing “pancaked” floors, pulverized concrete, red chips, iron spheres and molten metal from the incendiary “thermite” in the ubiquitous concrete powder and basements. Richard will also share the latest from whistle blowers, and much more. Focus with us on the dire implications of 9/11 being an “inside job” and also on “What do we do now?”

First California Concert by Vic Sadot Sunday, June 14, 2009, beginning at 2 pm
Henry Miller Memorial Library
Big SurVic Sadot and others will be performing, as part of the Second Sunday at Miller's Concert Series
Vic Sadot, now a Berkeley, CA based singer-songwriter,a singer-songwriter in the folk “roots & struggle” tradition of songwriters like Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Phil Ochs, Tom Paxton, and Bob Dylan. His best known songs are Broadside Balladeer (a tribute to Phil Ochs), The Frog Jog, Ballad of Pat Tillman, The Fog Watch, Our Only Chesapeake, White Clay Creek, Are You A Citizen, Mad Cowboy Disease, Bourbon Street, Beer Muscles, Ballad of William Rodriguez, and especially lately, Cheney’s in the Bunker. Some of these songs have videos at YouTube made by Dean A. Banks or by Sadot himself. Vic's most famous fan is Cynthia McKinney, the 2008 Green Party Presidential candidate and 6 term Democratic Party Congresswoman from the state of Georgia. McKinney says, "Vic Sadot's music produces in me a wide range of reactions from awe to action to tears. Cheney's in the Bunker produces awe because every line of that song is power-packed with information that most people don't know because it was omitted from the 9/11 Commission's report... Not only have I found in Vic a new friend who understands my passion for what is right, I've found someone who knows how to artistically communicate the critical issues."

Five Happiness (a good Chinese Restaurant)
4142 Geary Blvd, San Francisco (at 6th Avenue on the north side of Geary, next to Kentucky Fried Chicken)To join the committee- email cbrouillet@igc.org. We are still discussing the parameters which we hope to present to the larger group to vote on at next Thursday's meeting. We need to decide whether we will do a one day or two day event, which films... David Ray Griffin has already agreed to speak on September 10th. There are lots of decisions to make, and things to do, and what we can do will depend on whether we have enough people to do everything and pitch in. I posted a "Call for Entries" at www.communitycurrency.org/filmfestival2009.html, but I never publicized it because the group didn't ask me to or make any decisions on moving forward, and I lost heart (For multiple reasons, but primarily the suicide of someone I knew), until last week when David agreed to come and speak. If you would like to suggest ones that we don't know about or review films for the Festival, here are the titles of some that we are considering or that have been suggested-
Fabled Enemies, Our Own Private Bin Laden, Core of Corruption, The New American Century, 7/7 Ripple Effect, the latest 90 minute incarnation of Loose Change narrated by Daniel Sunjata, Anthrax War - Dead Silence, Kill the Messenger, The Elephant in the Room, Fool Me Twice, Ludicrous Diversion

The Money Fix: Film Screening and Discussion Thursday, July 23rd, 7-9:30pm
La Pena Cultural Center
3105 Shattuck Ave, BerkeleyThe Money Fix, takes a deep, hard look at money, and how it could be reinvented. An exciting evening of stimulating film and discussion about the problems with the current centralized monetary system and new currency solutions proposed in the Bay Area and beyond. Sponsored by the Open Money Foundation, Bay Area Community Exchange, and Sovereign Carbon Community Bank.
Money is at the intersection of nearly every aspect of modern life. Most of us take the monetary system for granted, but it has a profound and largely misunderstood influence on our lives. THE MONEY FIX is a feature-length documentary exploring our society’s relationship with the almighty dollar. THE MONEY FIX examines economic patterning in both the human and the natural worlds, and through this lens we learn how we can empower ourselves by redesigning the lifeblood of the economy at the community level. The film documents three types of alternative money systems, all of which help solve economic problems for the communities in which they operate. This film will utterly transform the way you perceive money and economics.

Corte Madera
Tel. 415.924.7824Were We Told the Truth About 9/11?
Watch the Trailer (YouTube) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SbSqe9Me_c
Core of Corruption: In the Shadows is a documentary film series which details a comprehensive investigation into clandestine intelligence operations and conspiracies. The project is surfacing exclusive whistle blowers, insiders and critical evidence for the very first time.
Over 2,000 hours of credible network news clips have been surfaced for this ground breaking event, most of which have never been seen since they aired and have never been available on the internet. Some of the video news segments for this project, when requested from the networks, were denied access to and corporate representatives would say that the information sought does not exist or has been misplaced.
Someone doesn’t want the public to see these stories, that when put together, establish a conspiracy of the magnitude that could change the way one views the world. Countless millions of people are being manipulated and lied to by a network of individuals within government that work on behalf of private interests. The individuals were involved in the terrorist attacks of September 11th. Many of those same figures are are connected to historical events that have shaped our understanding of government crime. For instance, the Iran Contra affair involved many figures that showed up in the 9/11 attacks.

Fremont Main Library
2400 Stevenson Blvd., Fremont510-745-1400
The Tri-City Documentary Series continues with The Judge and the General:
Our usual discussion following the film will be led by Andres Cediel, co-producer of the film. A graduate of UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism, Cediel is a filmmaker and journalist, currently producing documentaries for Frontline/World.As everyone with much knowledge of Latin American history knows, the September 11th, 1973 military coup in Chile sent reverberations throughout the hemisphere. Abetted by the CIA, the IMF, and Nixon administration, Gen. Augusto Pinochet seized power, killing elected socialist President Salvador Allende in the royal palace. Sixteen horrific years later, sensing the waning of their brutal military rule, Gen. Pinochet and his cronies negotiated a transition to civilian government intended to guarantee them a heavy hand in succeeding governments — and immunity from prosecution.
The Judge and the General is a profile of inspirational courage, the unusual story of the man who challenged that immunity and literally unearthed evidence of the "disappeared." Juan Guzman, a modest, conservative judge who had long been a Pinochet supporter, was also an idealist with a commitment to justice, however delayed. His fortitude in finding out the truth about the Pinochet regime — including his own blindness to that truth — has unleashed a whirlwind of repressed emotions in Chile and written a new chapter in human rights law.
This event is a collaboration with P.O.V., the PBS award-winning nonfiction film series.

- ae911truth.orgThe Economics of Peace- Transforming Money - Rebuilding Community - Redefining Wealth October 18-23, 2009
Sonoma, California
In the midst of economic collapse, we are compelled to seek wiser systems of commerce and more equitable economic relationships. While it is imperative that we understand the history of our economic structures and what went wrong, it is equally important that we experience the outstanding examples of collaborative business practices that are changing the economic landscape today. Examples include cooperative businesses, complementary currencies, green business, green jobs, slow money, slow food, living wage initiatives, social finance, credit unions, BALLE (Business Alliance for Local Living Economies), and more.
The challenge before us is to align the efforts and energies of the millions of individuals, businesses, and organizations that are working to transform our failing economy. "The Economics of Peace" Conference will provide a space for such independent networks and organizaions to form deeper levels of collaboration and to begin describing the next economic paradigm. In essence, it will be a place for the imaginal cells of a movement to begin transforming economic relationships to better serve people and planet.

West Fest October 25, 2009, 9 am to 6 pm
Speedway Meadows, Golden Gate Park, San FranciscoCelebrating the 40th Anniversary of Woodstock. Program, details at- http://www.2b1records.com/woodstock40sf/.
Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance will have a booth at the Festival.Screening of Rethink Afghanistan Tuesday, October 27, 7:00 PM
Mt. Diablo Peace & Justice Center
55 Eckley Lane, Walnut CreekRethink Afghanistan- Highly Recommended!
Civilians continue to be killed by American and coalition forces as the war in Afghanistan stretches into its eighth year with no end in sight. The civilian casualties have gone from the realm of tragedy and have now become frequent enough to turn the population against the United States in a war President Obama and congressional Democrats have escalated over the last several months.
Rethink Afghanistan is a ground-breaking, full-length documentary focusing on the key issues surrounding the war in Afghanistan. The film, produced by Robert Greenwald of Brave New Films, looks at what military escalation will achieve in Afghanistan, how the war could further destabilize a nuclear-armed Pakistan, and the staggering costs of the war, which could easily exceed $1 trillion.
See- rethinkafghanistan.com for more details.

PEACE AND JUSTICE FILM SHOWING- ANTHRAX WAR Tuesday, October 27, 2009, 7:00 PM
909 - 12th Street
Sacramento, CA 95814Featured Film- Anthrax War
Anthrax War takes viewers into the bio-defense labs of the United States and the U.S. military's testing grounds in the deserts of the American southwest. The filmmakers travel to a top-secret military installation of the former Soviet Union where anthrax "escaped" thirty years ago, where civilians are still living with the consequences, and where biological weapons work may be continuing. They move on to the savannas of southern Africa, where they meet "Doctor Death" and his associates of the notorious Project Coast who experimented with anthrax and other designer germs during the Apartheid Era, and where the anthrax used in the 2001 attacks may have originated.

In a modern society that’s increasingly “financialized,” consumer debt is so common that extending credit has become highly lucrative. Discussion will be led by Carol Brouillet, co-founder of the International Media Project, CommunityCurrency.org.
