New York Fire Commissioners Call for New 9/11 Investigation About "Pre-Planted Explosives"

New York Fire Commissioners Call for New 9/11 Investigation About "Pre-Planted Explosives" - lewrockwell.com
--------------------------------------

For further research on the 9/11 cover-up:

Now That We Know the FBI is Corrupt and Treasonous, It's Time to Revisit 'The Official Narrative' of 9/11 in Search of the Real Truth - naturalnews.com

Excerpt from this article:

"The FBI confiscated hundreds of security camera videos from the areas surrounding the Pentagon to hide the fact that the building was never struck by a commercial airline (as was universally claimed by the fake news media). The videos have never been released to the public. The official story is a lie, just like the Russia collusion hoax. In truth, the Pentagon was struck by a cruise missile fired by a deep state-controlled rogue element of the U.S. military. It was a classic false flag attack."
--------------------------------

Relevant quotes:

"Whenever you run a clandestine operation, you run two things at the same time: you prepare the team for the hit, and you keep it so small there's nobody to spread it all around. And across the hall is a big staff working on what we call special plans. They're preparing the cover story. The cover story is what they want people to believe and to talk about, and to argue about." - From a 1992 speech by Col. Fletcher Prouty, former chief of special operations, Joint Chief of Staff  - from the book  Deep Truth: The Lives of Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein:

"Beware the victor's version. Wartime propaganda morphs into peacetime textbooks...think outside the box. Don't accept the official version. Ask Why..." - Peter Hammond

Dan Smoot, the former assistant to FBI Head J. Edgar Hoover, had this to say about this amazing book:

"None Dare Call it Conspiracy is an admirable job of amassing information to prove that communism is socialism and socialism (a plot to enslave the world) is not a movement of the downtrodden but a scheme supported and directed by the wealthiest of people. If enough Americans read and acted upon NDCC they really can save the Republic from the conspirators - whose plans for the destruction of our country are galloping fast toward completion." (Source)

Quotes for Friday, July 26, 2019

The following quotes are from Mere Morality - What God Expects From Ordinary Christians, by the late Dr. Louis Smede (1921-2002):

"Maybe the prophets wanted the rich to invite the poor into their homes, maybe they wanted the poor to be befriended and supported by gentle arms of friends. Maybe friendliness. But at least justice, at least the rights of the poor respected."

And

"A baby born, through no choice of her own, into a poverty-stricken family has a right to nourishing food, a warm bed, and loving care. But as she grows, she also has a need to flourish as a human being. She needs education and books, music, access to dentists and doctors, and a chance to develop her gifts for creative work."

The following is an excerpt from the book, Sometimes God Has a Kid's Face, by Sister Mary Rose mcGead:
The Word on the Street is John's Prefer Chickens!

 "Merry Christmas Mister. Hey, Mister, do you wanna party? Are you looking for a good time on Christmas Eve? It's $10 bucks for the Globe Hotel and $20 bucks for me Mister...I've got to stop crying. Nobody's gonna buy me if I'm crying. It's bad for the John's head. It ruins his fantasy when a kid he wants to buy has tears in her eyes. 
“I feel like such a jerk, working the Cameo on Christmas Eve. People look at me real quick, and then look away – except the Johns. Bruce wants me to come to church on Christmas. He says God won't mind at all. In fact, He'd like to see me there, Bruce says.
“I'd be afraid. With these clothes on! Midnight mass would never be the same!   Besides, I'd never be able to sing Silent Night without Crying. Imagine me, in church, singing Silent Night. God would laugh. Before He got mad, He would laugh.
“I wish I could call my mother. It would be nice to know if she's OK. It being Christmas and all. She'd want to know what I was doing and where I was, but she already knows. And it would spoil her Christmas to know I was alive. I wonder if she'd rather think that I was dead. Maybe I wouldn't hurt her so much then.
“She could go back to thinking how it used to be on Christmas. When I was little. Before I left. Before I ruined things. Before dad...I've got to stop crying. Blue fly will be really mad if he sees me crying. Bruce says I should come to Covenant House for Christmas. The place looks great, he says. Christmas trees and presents for the kids and a big turkey dinner.
“It's hard when it's somebody else's Christmas tree. You walk around all day thinking of the time when you had one all your own. When you had a family and you got presents, and you were with people who loved you and wanted to have you around. 
“It's hard to get presents from somebody you hardly know. Who you never saw before yesterday. Who are just trying to make you feel good and happy. Sometimes it just makes it worse. 
“It's Christmas, and everybody wants me to be happy. Except Blue Fly! He wants me to work the Cameo porn theatre and pick up 10 Johns. Maybe they'll feel sorry for me and give me some big tips – before they go home to their own wives and kids and decorate their own Christmas trees!
“I wonder what kind of presents they're gonna give the kids at Covenant House this year. I wonder if they'd let me in again. Bruce said he would. My pimp, Blue Fly, sure won't like it. He really hassled me the last time I went to Covenant House. He beat me real bad. I don't want to go through that again!
“I sure don't want to keep doing this, either. Maybe Bruce is right and God won't get mad at me at Christmas!”
