If bin Laden Didn't Do 9/11, Then Who Did? Part 2

The Supposed Hijackers That Never Got on Planes, Zionism and the War of Terror, 9/11 and Islamophobia, 9/11 and Banking, Orientalist Bernard Lewis and Edward Said, Fact and Fiction in 9/11 Narratives

Recently I asked, “If bin Laden didn’t do 9/11, then who did”? In responding to the question, I highlighted the importance of several Zionist Jews in the planning and the implementation of the 9/11 false flag. I placed particular emphasis on the role of the Orientalist scholar, Bernard Lewis, as well as on Michael Chertoff. On the day of September 11, 2001, Chertoff was in charge of the criminal division of the US Dept. of Justice including the FBI. Lewis was instrumental in inventing and elaborating the bin Laden-based fantasy that prevails to this day as a prominent part of a fabricated narrative of 9/11 still being deployed to subjugate the public.

Chertoff was in charge of destroying as much evidence as possible concerning what really happened on 9/11. As he worked hard to hide and destroy various proofs of what had really happened, Chertoff simultaneously directed the concoction of much fake evidence. Prominent among counterfeited material was the FBI release on 28 Sept. 2001, of a compilation of the facial photographs of 19 Arab men. These individuals were named and pictured by the FBI as the supposed hijackers widely equated in the media with suicide bombers.

Many of the Arab men in the photographs later turned up very much alive and well in various places. In fact genuine scholars have repeatedly exposed as a fraud the whole hijacking story, both its various parts as well as in its totality. One of those who exposed in stages the fabricated story of the pretend hijackers is Claremont Graduate University Professor, David Ray Griffin. Between 2004 and 2017, Prof. Griffin developed his position in the course of researching and writing 11 books highly critical of various aspects of the official narrative. These include The New Pearl Harbour Revisited (2012) and The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions and Distortions (2004). See

Other contributors to this subject of the falsified accounts of the hijackers include Jay Kolar in the peer-reviewed, The Hidden History of 9/11 edited by Paul Zarembka, (2008). In Hijacking America’s Mind: Counterfeiting Evidence (2013), Elias Davidsson has meticulously chronicled the many disparities between the myth of the hijackers and what the existing evidence shows and does not show.

In summing up these and other accounts, Craig McKee explains that there is “not a shred of evidence that any 9/11 ‘hijackers’ boarded any planes.”

https://truthandshadows.com/2015/03/19/hijackers-did-not-board-planes/

Pulling out the concocted story of the Arab hijackers from the 9/11 fable, essentially collapses the underlying illusion on which the whole 9/11 fable depends. If no hijackers boarded and seized control of passenger jets, what was going on with the kamikaze airliner televised live in Manhattan hitting the South Tower? Were military drones made to stand in for passenger jets in the scripted drama authored and directed by the real culprits?

As for pilling on physical impossibilities on top of fictional narratives, how are we to explain the televised clip of what was said to be an aluminum passenger jet cutting through multiple massive columns of high-grade steel without even slowing down the projectile?

One would have expected that the impact of the aluminum-steel collision to have shattered the jet, but especially its wings, into millions of confetti-like bits. Instead we see the plane absorbed in tact into the building much like a hot knife cutting smoothly into soft butter.

On the day of 9/11 Donald Trump drew was interviewed. The future US President drew on his inside knowledge of the Twin Towers’ steel construction, explaining his theory the South Tower’s steel exterior could not have been breached by an airplane no matter how sturdy. He speculated that the bizarre crash filmed from many different angles probably involved the detonation of bombs.

The fact that the concocted hijackers saga, complete with jihadists wielding box cutters and passengers making cell phones that could not have happened, reminds me of how jurist Reiner Fuellmich frames the discussion of the manufactured COVID panic. The Covidians’ psychological manipulations depended on their producing mountains of counterfeit evidence of fast-mounting COVID cases produced by a purposely faulty PCR test. The concocted hijacker stories, like the production of the fictional “COVID cases,” created a fake foundation on which to build a host of illusions meant to scare the public into taking gene-altering jabs as well as submitting to mounting authoritarian control.

Israel, Zionism, Terrorism, Banking, and the Lies and Crimes of 9/11

What do I mean when I attribute much of the responsibility for the 9/11 debacle to those many components of organized Jewry that advance the cause of Zionism? Zionism is a form of Jewish nationalism that coalesced over several decades resulting in the establishment in 1947-48 of the country of Israel. After the Jewish state was established, Zionism continued in the quest to continue the military elimination and displacement of Israel’s enemies, many of them Arab Muslims. Zionist objectives also include the constant push to increase the size of Israel’s Jewish population as well as to expand the extent of its geographic, economic and political reach.

Zionism is a truly a global movement whose proponents, some of whom are avid Christian Zionists, picture Israel as the national home of international Jewry. Some go further, picturing Jerusalem as the future site of the world’s primary centre of learning, science and governance hosting the Third Temple with a restored Sanhedrin of Jewish sages.

Backed by the Israeli government, Zionist agencies in many countries are known for spying. This Israeli and Zionist preoccupation with spying is rampant in the United Sates. One of the goals of the covert incursions is to silence criticism of Israel for its often ruthless treatment of Arabs in or around the Jewish state. Much of this ruthlessness is aimed at Palestinians, but especially at those incarcerated in the open-air prison of Gaza as well as at those that persist in clinging to their rightful lands illegally seized from them in 1967 on the West Bank of the Jordan River.

With the backing of key members of the Rothschild banking clan, the Zionist agenda gathered momentum throughout the twentieth century as as a leading project embraced by the complex of interests driving the rise of the Anglo-Empire. A key to enhancing the Jewish and Zionist influence within the Anglo-American Empire was the establishment of the US Federal Reserve in 1913.

The 1913 Enactment stripped away much of the USA’s sovereign authority over financial affairs. Paul Warburg was the main architect of the 1913 Enactment. Warburg did much of the hands-on engineering to make the new US Federal Reserve an extension of the European system of privatized central banking. This banking weave runs throughout the Rothschild-Warburg complex of finance and family lineages. The picture above includes Wall Street Banker, J.P. Morgan. In 1913 he was the covert New York representative of the Rothschild/Bank of England complex integral to the secret operations of the City of London.

September 11, 2023, marks the 22nd anniversary of 9/11. Twenty-two years before 9/11 the family of Benjamin Netanyahu stepped forward in 1979 to host the Jerusalem Conference on International Terrorism. This conference helped lay the groundwork for what would become the US-led Global War on Terror. George H.W. Bush, a former CIA Director and future US President, contributed to the proceedings.

The exploitation of “terrorism” as both a political tool and as a term of political propaganda forms an integral part of Israel’s history. As with the Lavon Affair in 1954 and the Israeli attack on the USS Liberty in 1967, the founders of Israel regularly engaged in well-organized terrorism to advance their agendas. One of the best known examples is the blowing up by the Jewish militia, Irgun, of the King David Hotel in Jerusalem in 1946. The aim was to expel the British government from its Mandatory Rule over Palestine in order to clear the way for Israel’s establishment.

Like Menachem Begin, Benjamin Netanyahu comes from an extreme branch of Revisionist Zionism aimed at creating an enlarged Israel hostile to any integration of the land’s native Arabs. Now in 2023 Netanyahu has alienated many Israeli citizens by embracing the outer extremes of religious Zionism. This extremism extends to the Jewish supremacism celebrated in the teachings in the 1980s of Rabbi Meir Kahane. Rabbi Kahane’s legacy has been adopted by Netanyahu’s current National Security Minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir.

Itamar Ben-Gvir Electioneering with Benjamin Netanyahu

The strategy of the Netanyahu family in convening the Jerusalem Conferences in 1979 was to alter the image of Israel’s enemies by depicting them as enemies of the entire “West,” but especially of the US superpower. This goal was achieved in September of 2001 when the likes of Benjamin Netanyahu, Ehud Barak, Paul Wolfowitz, Robert Kagan, Bernard Lewis and Dick Cheney led the widespread misrepresentation of what really happened on 9/11. By acting decisively on this misrepresentation as if it was true, the influence of Zionism would surge especially where it counts the most, namely in the United States.

After 9/11, Zionist muscle flexing became even more dominant in shaping the orientation of the US government to both its own citizens as well as to the rest of the world. Some, like E. Michael Jones, go as far as indicating the USA has become pretty much a Jewish entity. This pattern was reflected when Netanyahu, who grew up in the United States, received 29 standing ovations when he spoke in the American Congress. This display of raptured hero worship was telling. Jewish power has become especially dominate across many compartments in upper echelons of US power.

Pretty much all major US initiatives, but especially those involving major decisions about banking and military intervention, are essentially subject to the veto of the large complex of organizations that make up the Israel Lobby. A pioneering study of the power of this lobby over US foreign policy was published in 2007 by Prof. John Mearsheimer and Prof. Stephen a Walt.

Many other neoconservatives, some of whom absorbed the philosophy of “noble lies and perpetual war” taught by Prof. Leo Strauss, pulled together in the lead up and aftermath of 9/11. This muscular coalition of Israel-First neoconservatives became primary beneficiaries of the coup that elevated Zionist rule to unparalleled influence over the economic, legal, and political culture of the United States.

Prominent among those that took part in the coup were Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, William Kristol, Donald Kagan, Elliot Abrams, James Woolsey, Douglas Feith, David Wurmser, Norman Podhoretz, Dov Zakheim, Frank Gaffney, and “Scooter” Libby. Two mirrored reports, one directed at the Israeli government and the other directed at the US government, helped articulate the coup’s objectives. Some of the objectives of 9/11, including the drafting of the massive Patriot Act, were pre-prepared and then unpacked immediately, even as the dust from the pulverized towers was still lingering on the ground.

In 1996 Richard Perle chaired a committee that gave advice to Netanyahu as he took over the Office of the Israeli Prime Minister. In A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm, a get-tough approach was outlined. The removal from office of Iraq’s Saddam Hussein was proposed as was the alleged need for a showdown with the Russia-backed Assad government in Syria. The twinned partner of the Clean Break report was the Rebuilding America’s Defences report. In 2000 this US report presented ideas emanating the Project for the New American Century (PNAC).

The PNAC document explained how the USA could greatly expand its capacities to better engage in simultaneous campaigns of conquest and military policing throughout the world. This report culminated in a long process of transforming the Armed Forces of what was then world’s dominant superpower, into an instrument devoted primarily to waging wars for Israel. The shopping list of armaments and new military technologies included a provision expressing much contemporary resonance. This proposal was to engage in “advanced forms of biological warfare that can ‘target’ specific genotypes. [This innovation] may transform biological warfare from the realm of terror to a politically useful tool."

PNAC’s preoccupation with the mounting of biological warfare anticipated the current role of the Pentagon in the ongoing genesis of the worldwide depopulation campaign presently underway. In the wake of the 9/11 false flag, the report, Rebuilding America’s Defenses, was essentially implemented along with much more besides. Far from leading to a New American Century, the PNAC document led to decades of internal decline, rot, and bankruptcy as the United States devoted the flower of its capacities to fighting the futile 9/11 Wars that were not in its interests.

Just days after 9/11, a new Zionists organization, the Foundation for the Defence of Democracies (FDD), was founded with major support from Edgar and Charles Bronfman as well as other Jewish donors. The FDD’s aim was to spin 9/11 in order to spread and intensify Islamophobia. The aim of this campaign of defaming Muslims was to harness public opinion to support, for instance, the Zio-American invasions of Muslim majority countries including Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Somalia, and Yemen. In this fashion Israel’s enemies were made to become “the West’s” primary enemy meant to replace the Communist enemy in the Cold War.

Inventing and Exploiting the Catastrophic and Catalyzing Event

Al-Qaeda was a CIA-instigated component of the mujahideen, theUS-backed mercenary force initially recruited, equipped and trained by the United States to fight the USSR-backed regime in Afghanistan during the 1980s. The US government still backs and funds al-Qaeda for its activities in several West Asian countries including Syria. Nevertheless the US government as well as the Zionist web site, Wikipedia, continues to describe al-Qaeda as the primary culprit of 9/11. See The De Facto US/Al Qaeda Alliance

https://consortiumnews.com/2016/10/29/the-de-facto-usal-qaeda-alliance/

PNAC’s report of 2000 culminated in the observation that

the process of transformation [of the military], even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event––like a new Pearl Harbor.

https://resistir.info/livros/rebuilding_americas_defenses.pdf

In September of 2001 the catastrophic and catalyzing event— like a new Pearl Harbour— happened. Many of the Zionist neocons that had pointed to the need for a surprise “attack” on America, apparently saw their wishes come true. Did Islamic jihadists acting independently just happen to oblige the neocons by delivering to them just what they wanted, namely something like a new Pearle Harbor?

Or did those in and around PNAC participate in the planning and then in helping to arrange the implementation of 9/11 false flag. This misrepresentation persists to this day in the coverup integral to the infested swamp of delusion miring whole populations in plagues of psy op lunacies.

There are many chroniclers of the Israeli, Jewish, and Zionist aspects of the continuing 9/11 operation, an operation resulting in the imposition of emergency measures that continue to this day. The Wikispooks item linked to below, offers a succinct and yet quite comprehensive survey that represents a necessary corrective to the onerous weight of the disinformation offered by Wikipedia on all 9/11-related topics. See https://wikispooks.com/wiki/9-11/Israel_did_it

Among the pioneering investigators who fleshed out many links between Israel, Zionism, Jews and 9/11 are Michael Piper Collins, Christopher Bollyn, and Victor Thorn. Bollyn has acknowledge his debt to Andreas von Bülow, a former German parliamentarian and Defence Minister— an important and thoughtful intelligence agency insider— who in 2003 wrote a book attributing the events of 9/11 to covert collusion between Israel and the United States.

Other high-ranking officials who came to similar conclusions include Michael Meacher, a former British cabinet minister, Francesco Cossiga, a former President of Italy, Paul Craig Roberts, former Assistant Secretary of the US Treasury, Lt. Col. Robert L. Bowman, former head of the US Star Wars Program, and Hamid Gul, former head of Pakistan’s Inter-Service Intelligence Agency (ISI).

Among the investigators that have seriously addressed the connections linking Israel-First partisans to 9/11 are Dr. Allan Sabrosky, David Icke, Dr. Kevin Barrett, J. Michael Springman, Jonathan Azaziah, Barrie Zwicker, Louis Farrakhan, Kees van der Pijl, Christopher Ketcham, Ryan Dawson, Thierry Meyssan, Ken O’Keefe, Craig McKee, Barbara Honegger, James Fetzer, and the especially prolific Laurent Guyénot. This list is far from complete.

In the my prior essay on this topic I introduced Bernard Lewis as the probable source of the bin Laden fantasy. The bin Laden story is part of the larger fantasy that 9/11 was the outcome of the independent actions of a cohesive group of Islamic jihadists that acted independently in order to realize a shared religious vision of Islamic conquest.

By now it should be clear that this picture of what happened doesn’t even come close to approximating what we can derive from the evidence. Much of the evidence is very straightforward. It survives in videos depicting what was seen and heard on the day of 9/11. Taken together, much of the abundant existing evidence makes it clear that 9/11 was an enormous and extremely complex spectacle that must have required much wealth, much detailed planning, much insider access, much organization, and much advanced logistical knowhow. The scale of operation 9/11 was obviously far beyond anything that could have been achieved by a rag tag collection of jihadists said to be acting independently.

The scale of the 9/11 event was modest compared to the inflated level of coordination necessary to create and maintain the cover up. Over the years I have come to marvel at the sheer audacity of the cover story. This authentically murderous event was executed with the intent of elevating the imagery of Islamic terrorism to ridiculous heights.

By now the whole performance should have been exposed for the utter fraud that it is. The over-the-top portrayal through faked cell phone calls, depicted accounts of Muslim hijackers often equated with suicide bombers. The whole dark ritual of blasting into impressionable minds masses of crude representations picturing crazed an Muslim killers, can be seen in retrospect as a disgusting caricature. Through the lens of what we can currently see happening in 2023, we can now look back on the events of Sept. 11, 2001 as more of a lethal farce than a display of revolutionary chutzpah.

Who were the dramatists who wrote the false flag plot of 9/11? As I tried to figure out who had the means and the gall to take on such a task, my attention was drawn to Bernard Lewis. I first learned of Lewis from the late Edward Said, the outspoken Professor of Comparative Literature at Columbia University. In 1978 Prof. Said published the book Orientalism, a major classic of academic literature. In the book and in the intense academic controversies it energized, Bernard Lewis became the much publicized-personification of what Prof. Said meant by invoking the imperial ethos of Orientalism.

Going back to Napoleon’s imperial foray into Egypt, Orientalism highlighted the study of the predominately Muslim populations inhabiting the Near East and the Maghreb south of the Mediterranean Sea. Said developed the thesis that the history of the social sciences, of which Orientalism forms a representative part, was deeply bound up with project of advancing the imperial enterprise integral to the rise of European empires.

The study of Orientalism was called upon to infuse the imperial powers with the intellectual means of dominating Muslim peoples largely by exploiting schisms of divide-and-conquer. As both an American and as a Christian Palestinian, Prof. Said asserted that he was well placed to look at imperialism for both the delivering and receiving sides.

Clearly Said regarded Lewis as a nemesis. Born in Great Britain in 1916, Lewis came of age studying in some of the core academies of British imperial Orientalism. He assimilated much of the content as well as the methodology of Orientalist studies. He then then applied what he had learned in the very institutions that been integral to influencing the British colonization that had helped shape the Maghreb, Egypt, West Asia and Eurasia.

In 1974 at the the age of 58, Lewis moved across the Atlantic to an academic post at Princeton where his teaching responsibilities were cut to a minimum in order to leave him lots of time to engage in other activities. Once Lewis moved from the older to the newer branch of the Anglo-American Empire, he applied his knowledge to the big transition in US foreign policy initiated in 1979 when Jimmy Carter began his one-term presidency.

In 1979 the US government let loose the mujahideen, the mercenary Muslim fighting force it created and equipped to overthrow the Soviet-backed regime governing Afghanistan. The US government was also a party in the decision to help facilitate the entry of Ayahtollah Ruhollah Khomeini into the government of Iran. This development predictably made Iran the primary theocratic site of an Islamic Revolution that rippled throughout the Muslim world.

With his legacy of Orientalist activity in the academy and in government intelligence agencies, Lewis was perfectly placed to play a leading part in the transition that culminated the transformation of the British Empire into the Anglo-American Empire. Especially by sponsoring the mujahideen, in which Osama bin Laden played a significant role, the wheels began turning towards the demise of the Soviet Empire.

With the end of the Cold War the conditions became ripe for the transformation of Lewis’ notion of the “clash of civilizations” into a War on Terror. The Princeton professor worked hard by writing many books while he engaged in much behind-the-scenes activity as the Communist foe was replaced by a heavy fixation on making Islamic jihadists the main enemy to be conquered.

After 9/11 Lewis went to a work basically serving as a full-time adviser to the White House. In helping to lead the US response to 9/11, Prof. Lewis was often praised as being the prophetic figure who had predicted the rise of Islamic terror that was said to have become so intense that it made jet planes penetrate right through a steel-frame skyscraper on 9/11.

Frankly I picture Lewis more as a driving force in the genesis of the very events he was so often congratulated for anticipating. As I picture it, Lewis was mentoring some of the key figures along the journey from the final stages of the Cold War to a long stretch of the Global War on Terror. Prof. Lewis lived to witness the 9/11 Wars until 2018 when he died at age 102.

I picture especially Lewis’ influence on Samuel Huntington. Huntington developed Lewis’s pet paradigm of the “clash of civilizations” into articles, a major book and a prominent place in US strategic thinking. I also picture Lewis’ influence on Zbigniew Brzezinski, Jimmy Carter’s National Security Advise from 1977-1981.

Brzezinski often took credit for starting the end of the Cold War by playing an instrumental role in setting the Muslim proxy army against the Soviet-backed government of Afghanistan. Lewis was much more qualified than Brzezinski to direct this operation from the shadows. Avoiding the limelight, Lewis probably advised Brzezinski on techniques for turning Muslims against Muslims in Afghanistan.

After 9/11 Lewis spent a great deal of time at the White House with Vice-President Dick Cheney, the chief hands-on War Lord of the US response to the so-called “terror attack.”

Zbigniew Brzezinski, Samuel Huntington, and Dick Cheney, All Mentored by Bernard Lewis

Interspersed amidst his intimate exchanges with Cheney, Lewis took part in a number of meetings with President Bush, the National Security Council, and many high-ranking military officials. Cheney said of Lewis on his 90th birthday, "You simply cannot find a greater authority on Middle Eastern history, classical Islamic civilization, the Ottoman Empire ... than this man."

https://historynewsnetwork.org/article/24633

The antagonisms between Bernard Lewis and Edward Said that began with the latter’s publication of Orientalism in 1978 have become the stuff of legend in the academy even until this day. The two scholars were captured in 1986 going head-to-head at the Middle East Studies Association’s 20th anniversary panel discussion.

Said presented a stunning commentary on the bias in the media coverage of the Middle East. Then as now, Muslims were subject to being stereotyped for their “fundamentalism” as expressed in “congenital terrorism” outside the boundaries of “civilized” behaviour. Prof. Said noted the lockstep uniformity of media bias and US policy in the Middle East. He condemned the overlap of the “Orientalist Lobby” with the “Zionist Lobby.”

As I interpret this exchange, it seems evident that Said was well aware of Lewis’ oversized influence inside the US government even in those days. Prof. Said died in 2003 at age 67 after a long and painful struggle with leukemia. If he had been able to survive and thrive as the War on Terror unfolded, history might have turned out differently. The Palestinian scholar would probably have become the most eloquent public voice condemning the predatory orgy of invasion of Muslim-majority counties as well as the invasions on the rights and freedoms of all citizens.

The following clip is of Charlie Rose’s interview of Bernard Lewis just days after the 9/11 debacle.

Click Lick on video here.

https://charlierose.com/videos/737

Early on in the interview Prof. Lewis helped build up the mystique surrounding Osama bin Laden, the CIA asset that supposedly turned against the United States. Bin Laden was said by Lewis to have had a “significant following” in the Islamic world. Prof. Lewis pointed to what he claimed was the wide appreciation of bin Laden’s poetry in the Arab-speaking world.

Did Prof. Lewis himself compose some of the poetry and prose attributed to Osama bin Laden in creating the imaginary personae of Osama bin Laden as the “mastermind of 9/11”? I believe Pro. Lewis helped shape the plot line woven around the mythology of bin Laden and al-Qaeda. In its first incarnation first al-Qaeda was part of a CIA/mujahideen data base. “Qaeda” means base in Arabic. With Bernard Lewis playing the role of the Wizard of Oz, the Saudi Prince was presented to the world as the prototypical example of an Islamic jihadist, an Arab terrorist.

In the context of these times, Bernard Lewis comments to Charlie Rose appear almost quaint and naive when he encouraged the US government and its allies to teach Arabs how to make progress in the world by adopting democracy and the ethos of individual freedoms. The myth of the US as a bastion of democracy and individual liberties no longer flies as easily as it once did. This tired old cliché is simply not credible given the attacks we the people of the West are facing from our own enemy governments, media, medical profession, and law enforcement agencies.

It didn’t take long for Lewis to move beyond his assessment of bin Laden and to add his own voice to those of many other neocons who very soon after 9/11 began expressing the view that Saddam Hussein should removed in order to remake Iraq. The lie that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction was a sub-fraud derived from the Big Fraud of 9/11. Nevertheless the US-led invasion of Iraq was mounted in 2003 as Edward Said was silenced by leukemia.

Marrying Fiction and Fact to Embed the 9/11 Myths as Authentic History

Bernard Lewis married outright fiction with some true and half-true elements to author the overall plot handed over to governments, the media, the Public Relations industry etc. These propaganda agencies delivered for many groups well tailored versions of the officially-sanctioned explanation of 9/11. The bogus explanations condemned the innocent and protected the guilty parties.

In the days and weeks after 9/11, the optics of law enforcement and media coverage were significantly altered. In the New York area the prisons were emptied of Israeli agents and spies initially jailed as 9/11suspects. Once the Israelis suspected of involvements in the crimes of 9/11 were emptied from the prisons, spaces opened up for the incarceration of Muslims picked up for technical things like allegations of VISA irregularities. It was all about the optics.

Many minds must have addressed the fable of how to spin 9/11 in ways that made Muslims look bad and Jews look virtuous as well as seriously imperilled. While many local and thematic details of the fable must have been worked in committees and such, probably one individual would have had to come up with the overview of the panoramic fantasy meant to demonize Muslims, lionize Jews, and protect the guilty.

I cannot think of anyone more likely than Bernard Lewis to have played the master role of marrying fiction and fact in the drama of 9/11 story telling. A main goal of the 9/11 psychological operation was to engineer suitable public attitudes so that US government would be more free to go about its aggressive warfare largely in the service of Israeli objectives

Many examples could be given of how this marriage of fiction and fact was given dramatic expression to help embed the 9/11 myths as the basis for popular understanding of a key episode in history. While there were many dry academic texts written to give the appearance of legitimacy to the 9/11 fables, the method of using colourful and dramatic story telling in books, magazines and dramas was heavily favoured. As a result the 9/11 fictions have been well integrated into the fabric of popular culture.

Among the most ambitious of the projects of creative fiction dressed up to look real, was Lawrence Wright’s The Looming Tower: Al-Qaeda and the Road to 9/11 (New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 2006).

The image of the official narrative of 9/11 was no doubt buttressed when the volume was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 2007. Were Zionist interests involved in the judging? It would be surprising if that was not the case.

Lawrence Wright narrates the volume by pretending to be an eye witness to the events he describes. It is made to seem as if he is watching over the shoulders of his main characters as they stroll through life during the stages of their lives. Wright describes details like smells and sounds and facial expressions. While this technique helps bring fiction to life, it interferes with the telling of history by adding details usually not connected to verifiable literary sources.

The Looming Tower is written like a novel. In fact it pretty much is a novel with a few verifiable facts thrown in here and there. The goal of the text is to give the appearance of historical substance to the currents of thought and belief said to have motivated the supposed perpetrators of 9/11.

At the basis of the novel’s plot is Sayyid Qubt, an authentic Muslim critic of Western society. Qubt based many of his assessments in what he saw during the time he spent at a teachers’ college in Greely Colorado in 1949-50. When he returned back to Egypt in the 1950s and early 60s, Qubt developed a following of adherence well versed in his written interpretations of Islam.

Qubt’s theology made him a sometime enemy of the fairly secular government of Abdul Nasser. Qubt was jailed and then released. At one point he was even offered the job of Egypt’s Minister of Education. He declined the offer and was subsequently apprehended and hanged.

Wright’s text becomes much more problematic when he paints a largely fabricated picture of the extension of Qubt’s analysis into a largely invented and sometimes embellished history of al-Qaeda. The author presents al-Qaeda as an independent polity often well beyond the reach and monitoring of CIA handlers. The reality is that the CIA pulled the strings of bin Laden and his small entourage even more after the Soviet ejection from Afghanistan in 1989 than before it.

Wright’s account of al-Qaeda is intertwined with accounts of the life of medical doctor, Ayman al-Zawahiri. Al-Zawahiri was pictured as being close to Osama bin Laden, part of a big and very rich Saudi family. I did not see anywhere in Wright’s text a reference to the close ties linking the Bush and bin Laden families especially through the Carlyle group of military merchandizers.

Wright also tells the story of the conflicts preventing constructive collaboration between FBI’s John O’Neill and the CIA’s Michael Michael Scheuer, both known to be bin Laden watchers. This aspect of The Looming Tower helps support the thesis of the official story’s defenders. They parrot the explanation of the 9/11 debacle as a result of failures of the intelligence agencies to share information with one another. The picture of the 9/11 debacle as the result of mistakes and errors was widely embraced, including by the 9/11 Commission.

The text finishes with page after page of a list of names of individuals who were said to have been interviewed. Some of these names are to be found in a “Notes’ section that is often confusing and unpersuasive. The content of these notes does not offer solid proofs for the extravagant claims and generalizations the author frequently makes.

In the final analysis, the text is based on collections of hear say and on the imagination of an ambitious journalist. Wright was well rewarded for telling an engaging story that steered round many awkward truths pointing at the real culprits, not the fictional ones.

The technique of writing about the events of 9/11 in the literary style of a novel was embraced by Prof. Phillip Zelikow. Zelikow was proud that his 9/11 Commission Report, a text that he mostly authored himself, was the first government document ever to be nominated for a National Book Award.

Phillip Zelikow is Zionist Jew who was a Bush White House insider and the Executive Director of the 9/11 Commission that submitted its report on 2004. Zelikow was appointed after President George W. Bush’s original appointee, Henry Kissinger, aroused much resistance including from the families of the 9/11 victims. Zelikow was subject to many conflicts-of-interests. He should not have been appointed by the White House to sanitize the roles of other White House insiders including prominently, President George W. Bush and Vice-President Dick Cheney.

Much of the report was based on evidence obtained illegally though torture. Much of this torture was directed at a figure known as Khalid Sheik Mohammed. KSM seems to be a name assigned to different people through the course of changing events. Like the report of the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the report of the 9/11 Commission basically worked backwards starting with the conclusion and then inventing or modifying evidence to prove the conclusion. The conclusion, of course, was that bin Laden and al-Qaeda did 9/11.

One of Zelikow’s academic specialties was in the creation of “public myths.” Clearly his method as the main author and manipulator of the Commission’s proceedings, was to confirm media accounts that Islamic jihadists did 9/11. The other side of this strategy was to completely avoid any reference to the fact that the first five 9/11 suspects were Israeli citizens including at least two Mossad agents. These so-called “dancing Israelis” were accompanied by several dozen Israeli spies taken into custody.

In August of 2022 President Joe Biden took a bow for a drone strike said to have killed Ayman al-Zawahiri in Kabul Afghanistan.

In 2011 Osama bin Laden claimed in a hotly contested account, to have killed Osama bin Laden in Abbottabad Pakistan.

Hence it can be said that three US Presidents, George W. Bush, Barak Obama, and Joe Biden have ordered the killing of those whose actions are said to have caused the Global War on Terror. At different times Osama bin Laden and then Khalid Sheik Mohammed and then Ayram al-Zawahiri were labelled as “masterminds” of the 9/11 attacks. I propose that a Bernard Lewis is a likely suspect in creating the fantasy driving the 9/11 Wars and the state of emergency that persists to this day.
