As I noted in an item yesterday, Jesse Ventura has a new book out, co-authored with Dick Russell, called American Conspiracies, which includes an excellent chapter on election fraud and its connection to the likely murder of Mike Connell.

Well, this morning, Jesse had a front-page piece on 9/11 up at HuffPost: a front-page piece that quickly slipped off that front page–and then completely disappeared.

Here’s what you’ll find there now (or will, until they take that down as well):

Editor’s Note: The Huffington Post’s editorial policy, laid out in our blogger guidelines, prohibits the promotion and promulgation of conspiracy theories — including those about 9/11. As such, we have removed this post.

All that’s up there now are the comments left by 65 of HuffPost’s readers.

It’s worth noting that HuffPost already ran an excerpt from another chapter of American Conspiracies , about the US “war on drugs,” and they had no problem with that subject.

But this one is, as we all know, taboo. Clearly, even to question the official story of 9/11 is to engage in “conspiracy theories” (as if the official story weren’t itself a “conspiracy theory,” and a preposterous one at that). Such is always the response of the US mainstream media (the foreign media tends to be more open-minded)–and it’s also the response of our left/liberal media, as this amazing act of censorship makes clear.

So here is the offending piece. Please read it; and let’s all try to locate the particular points that are so obviously wild and baseless that HuffPost had to kill the whole piece insantly.

Huffington Post/Jesse Ventura – Article #2 (”American Conspiracies”)

WHAT REALLY HAPPENED ON SEPTEMBER 11TH?

You didn’t see anything about it in the mainstream media, but two weeks ago at a conference in San Francisco, more than one thousand architects and engineers signed a petition demanding that Congress begin a new investigation into the destruction of the three World Trade Center skyscrapers on 9/11.

That’s right, these people put their reputations in potential jeopardy – because they don’t buy the government’s version of events. They want to know how 200,000 tons of steel disintegrated and fell to the ground in 11 seconds. They question whether the hijacked planes were responsible – or whether it could have been a controlled demolition from inside that brought down the Twin Towers and Building 7.

Richard Gage, a member of the American Institute of Architects and the founder of Architects and Engineers for 9-11 Truth, put it like this: “The official Federal Emergency Management [Agency] and National Institute of Standards and Technology reports provide insufficient, contradictory and fraudulent accounts of the circumstances of the towers’ destruction.” He’s especially disturbed by Building 7, whose 47 stories came down in “pure free-fall acceleration” that afternoon – even though it was never hit by an aircraft.

This is a subject I take up in my new book, American Conspiracies , published this week by Skyhorse. An excerpt follows:

Some people have argued that the twin towers went down, within a half hour of one another, because of the way they were constructed. Well, those 425,000 cubic yards of concrete and 200,000 tons of steel were designed to hold up against a Boeing 707, the largest plane built at the time the towers were completed in 1973. Analysis had shown that a 707 traveling at 600 miles an hour (and those had four engines) would not cause major damage. The twin-engine Boeing 757s that hit on 9/11 were going 440 and 550 miles an hour.

Still, we are told that a molten, highly intense fuel mixture from the planes brought down these two steel-framed skyscrapers. Keep in mind that no other such skyscraper in history had ever been known to collapse completely due to fire damage. So could it actually have been the result of a controlled demolition from inside the buildings? I don’t claim expertise about this, but I did work four years as part of the Navy’s underwater demolition teams, where we were trained to blow things to hell and high water. And my staff talked at some length with a prominent physicist, Steven E. Jones, who says that a “gravity driven collapse” without demolition charges defies the laws of physics. These buildings fell, at nearly the rate of free-fall, straight down into their own footprint, in approximately ten seconds. An object dropped from the roof of the 110-story-tall towers would reach the ground in about 9.2 seconds. Then there’s the fact that steel beams that weighed as much as 200,000 pounds got tossed laterally as far as 500 feet.

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) started its investigation on August 21, 2002. When their 10,000-page-long report came out three years later, the spokesman said there was no evidence to suggest a controlled demolition. But Steven E. Jones also says that molten metal found underground weeks later is proof that jet fuel couldn’t have been all that was responsible. I visited the site about three weeks after 9/11, with Governor Pataki and my wife Terry. It didn’t mean anything to me at the time, but they had to suspend digging that day because they were running into heat pockets of huge temperatures. These fires kept burning for more than three months, the longest-burning structure blaze ever. And this was all due to jet fuel? We’re talking molten metal more than 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit.

Probably the most conclusive evidence about a controlled demolition is a research paper (two years, nine authors) published in the peer-reviewed Open Chemical Physics Journal , in April 2009. In studying dust samples from the site, these scientists found chips of nano-thermite, which is a high-tech incendiary/explosive. Here’s what the paper’s lead author, Dr. Niels Harrit of the University of Copenhagen’s chemistry department, had to say about the explosive that he’s convinced brought down the Twin Towers and the nearby Building 7:

“Thermite itself dates back to 1893. It is a mixture of aluminum and rust-powder, which react to create intense heat. The reaction produces iron, heated to 2500 degrees Centigrade. This can be used to do welding. It can also be used to melt other iron. So in nano-thermite, this powder from 1893 is reduced to tiny particles, perfectly mixed. When these react, the intense heat develops much more quickly. Nano-thermite can be mixed with additives to give off intense heat, or serve as a very effective explosive. It contains more energy than dynamite, and can be used as rocket fuel.”

Richard Gage is one of hundreds of credentialed architects and structural engineers who have put their careers on the line to point out the detailed anomalies and many implications of controlled demolition in the building collapses. As he puts it bluntly: “Once you get to the science, it’s indisputable.”

This country is really shot, READ ALL ABOUT IT---- THINKING IS PROHIBITED AT THE HUFF POST----. What they are saying here is that you can post a blog only if it tows the official line, I bet an anti-truth post would be welcomed with open arms. Disgusting......

And yet, America is supposed to be a free country where free speech prevails - yet it isn't.

It's a sad day when RUSSIA - RUSSIA, PEOPLE - allows people like Jesse Ventura - a former Governor -, Jason Bermas and Alex Jones to speak frankly about 9/11.

I mean, WTF is this shit? It doesn't matter if you're the goddamn President of the Carlyle Group and you speak out on 9/11 - you immediately get classified a 'nut' and they censor your article. This is mass mental illness and mind control.

I swear, they could get Donald Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney on record saying they were the 'moles' at strategic places that made sure the attacks happened, and they would just be classified as 'nuts', the comments put down the memory hole and we would all be arguing 'yes it is, no it isn't, blablabla, you're a conspiracy theorist, blabla I have the intellectual capacity of a fourth grader and I have deactivated my neo-cortex and am basically using my reptilian brain to  guide my thinking process, which doesn't amount to much in the first place')

Totally agree, we are in sooooo much trouble. Free speech is it, amendment number 1.  Arianna, what are you so afraid of? If 9/11 truth is all lies and made up crap than why don't you let the post stand so the Governor can discredit himself with all the lies he spews? Why are you so afraid? Because he is correct and you know it.....

Another media outlet who has never, and will never, get a dime or a webhit from me.

[chrisfromchi]

i been promoting and promulgating conspiracy theories for over a year there.

thats f**king bs.

[Freeski]

From Dick Russell, I presume... hard to tell but the point is sound:

"Clearly, even to question the official story of 9/11 is to engage in “conspiracy theories” (as if the official story weren’t itself a “conspiracy theory,” and a preposterous one at that)."

[Dig]

FYI...about 4 years ago when I first went to huffpo, they heavily promoted the George Washington Blog and intelligently sound concerns about 9/11. But like the rest of the fake "alt" Soros/Rockefeller allowed blogs...they have sold out.

Arianna also often parrots Ron Paul, but her true addiction is rubbing elbows with celebrities and having fake journalists marvel that she is not the perfectly stereotypical talking head.

Well so what huffpo, how the hell can they even call themselves alternative media?

[Dig]

this is more evidence that they are planning false flags and some people have been "warned".

wtf? why is everyone all of a sudden so scared of 9/11 truth now that over 80% of the American people believe in it.

I'd say that's a little bit out of context, because 9/11 didn't happen in Russia. Imagine if it did, they sure as hell wouldn't be talking about it - just like here.


But, I understand where you're coming from.

I agree.  With Russia we are talking about a country which leads the G20 in "unsolved" reporter murders.  They have no trouble reporting on things outside of Russia but they better not stick their cameras and pens in the direction of the Kremlin.

Hey HuffPo, you still spreading outlandish conspiracy theories about 19 morons in a cave when the following has just been declassified:

NORAD Exercise on Sept. 9, 2001
Included Plane Hijackers Targeting New York

http://forum.prisonplanet.com/index.php?topic=162849.0[/url]

Be sure to check out the following two new entries in the Complete 9/11 Timeline. The first of these entries reveals that, just two days before 9/11, NORAD's Northeast Air Defense Sector (NEADS) was practicing an exercise scenario in which hijackers took over a plane heading for New York, planning to blow it up over the city. Eventually, the military was able to divert the aircraft, but the hijackers blew it up all the same. Then, on September 10, NORAD's Southeast Air Defense Sector (SEADS) in Florida practiced an exercise scenario where Cubans hijacked an aircraft and demanded to be taken to New York. If you believe the official theory, then the similarity of these scenarios to the 9/11 attacks was just a coincidence.

September 9, 2001: NEADS Exercise Includes Scenario with Terrorist Hijackers Targeting New York
Personnel at NORAD’s Northeast Air Defense Sector (NEADS) practice their responses to a simulated plane hijacking in which terrorists plan to blow up a hijacked airliner over New York City. The scenario is part of the annual NORAD training exercise Vigilant Guardian. [9/11 Commission, 2004; Spencer, 2008, pp. 3] In the scenario, the fictitious hijackers take over a McDonnell Douglas DC-10 aircraft bound from London, Britain, to JFK International Airport in New York. According to a document later produced by the 9/11 Commission, the terrorist hijackers have explosives on the plane and “plan to detonate them over NYC.” As the scenario plays out, a “Blue Force” is able to divert the hijacked aircraft. When the terrorists then realize they are not near New York, they “detonate [the] explosives over land near the divert location.” There are no survivors. [9/11 Commission, 2004] NEADS is based in Rome, New York, and will play a key role in coordinating the US military’s response to the 9/11 attacks two days later. On the morning of September 11, its personnel will be scheduled to practice another scenario based around an aircraft hijacking, presumably as part of the same Vigilant Guardian exercise (see (9:40 a.m.) September 11, 2001). [9/11 Commission, 7/24/2004, pp. 17; Vanity Fair, 8/1/2006]

September 10, 2001: Training Exercise Scenario at NORAD’s Southeast Sector Involves Cubans Hijacking Plane, Wanting to Go to New York
Personnel at NORAD’s Southeast Air Defense Sector (SEADS) at Tyndall Air Force Base, Florida, practice for the scenario of an aircraft being hijacked by Cuban asylum seekers. The scenario is part of the annual NORAD training exercise, Vigilant Guardian. [9/11 Commission, 2004; Spencer, 2008, pp. 3] In the scenario, the fictitious hijackers take over an Ilyushin IL-62 jet airliner that took off from Havana, Cuba. The hijackers, who are “demanding political asylum, demand to be taken to” New York City, according to a document later produced by the 9/11 Commission. As the scenario plays out, the FAA requests support from NORAD. The FAA directs the plane toward Jacksonville, Florida, but the hijackers then demand to be taken to Atlanta, Georgia. Finally, the hijacked plane lands safely at Dobbins Air Force Base in Georgia. [9/11 Commission, 2004] The following morning, September 11, personnel at NORAD’s Northeast Air Defense Sector (NEADS) in Rome, New York, are scheduled to practice what is apparently a similar plane hijacking scenario, presumably as part of the same Vigilant Guardian exercise (see (9:40 a.m.) September 11, 2001). According to Vanity Fair, that scenario will involve “politically motivated perpetrators” seeking asylum “on a Cuba-like island.” [Vanity Fair, 8/1/2006]

Did you know that Adam Lambert has a bulge in his crotch? Were you aware that the world's shortest man recently died? Are you informed enough to know that Jessica Simpson says men are "undressing her with their eyes"?

Sorry, let me rephrase all that: Do you give a shit about any of that retarded "news"? I sure as hell don't, but these were among the many absurd storys I found on the front page of a tabloid called the Huffington Post.

As far as genuine news goes the Huffington Post has some bizarre standards. Jesse Ventura honored the ragsheet by writing a great piece for them. The former Navy Seal and former Governor explained why over 1,000 Architects and Structural Engineers have come together to demand a new investigation regarding the collapse of three high-rise buildings on 9/11. It was a fact filled article that clearly explained the main technical issues that motivated the experts to demand a new investigation. Unfortunately, Ventura was informed that the article did not meet the high standards of the Huffington Post's editorial policy.

Jesse Ventura blew it.  He probably should have talked about the Engineers crotches, and included some bulge pictures. Maybe that would have put the article in line with the pathetic tabloid's standards. Who knows. Maybe the Navy seal needed to include some discussion of a deformed midget Architect who was dying. That might have made Huffington's day.

Either way, the censorship backfired and blew up in Arianna Huffington's puffy face.  Thousands of web pages have proudly stepped up to the plate and printed Ventura's excellent article. Good websites. The article ended up getting way more exposure. Maybe the best thing is that Huffington's censorship is now well known, and they have been fully exposed as the pathetic rag-sheet they are.

All is well that ends well.

Quick! The last time I talked about 9/11 on CNN's iReport, they deleted the post without any reason. They wiped it off their board. I just posted this story with my take on it there. Let's see how long it takes for them to delete it! http://www.ireport.com/docs/DOC-421084 Take a look, folks!

Not vetted, dude.

[ImJustAPatsy]

They have tons of stories that aren't 'vetted,' some were still there from the night before when I went to comment on this 9/11 Truth post, but the 9/11 Post was gone. I know what the vetting process is. No where in their explanation of how their vetting process works does it say we will delete your post. It simply says...

iReport is a user-generated section of CNN.com. The stories in this section are not edited, fact-checked or screened before they are posted.
What does the label "not vetted by CNN" mean?
 The label “Not vetted by CNN” lets you know that this story hasn’t been both checked and cleared by a CNN editor.
What does "vetted" mean?
 iReport stories that have a red "CNN iReport" stamp in the corner have been vetted and cleared. That means they've been selected and approved by a CNN producer to use on CNN, on air, or on any of CNN's platforms.

So basically, if you make a post it stays there until someone from CNN sees it and if they dig it, they 'vet' it and you get a little stamp on it. Other posts from the same day that were not 'vetted' were still there but the 9/11 post wasn't. I don't know how that happens.

[Freeski]

Clear evidence that the mainstream media shouldn't ever be trusted.

[ImJustAPatsy]

CNN is bullshit. They don't show any of their vetted stories on CNN the news channel. They just give you a stamp on your story and you get a gold star for being a good zombie. It's an illusion of having a say in the news. They're lying bastards.

I live in the UK and was interested and delighted to see that the BBC were showing a documentary about 911 conspiracy theories.  so i watched it and I can tell you that it was as transparent a piece of anti conspiracy theory propaganda that there ever was.  Every issue they raised wasnt investigated fully and the whole piece was geared to ridicule truth seekers and to shame them for upsetting the families of the victims!   Not once did they talk about the families who are campaigning every day and have been for 10 years.  Not once did they give a balanced view of the science etc etc you can imagine.  By the end of it I was so mad that I came on here to vent, but I got delayed because I hadnt yet registered.  Anyway, BBC can not be trusted to provide a balanced view.  What a whitewash.

[Overcast]

Well.. that's because they have Huffed a ton there and will believe anything big brother rapist government tells them to believe.

"Believe that we care".

and the masses cry and chant, "yes, yes, we know you care!!!"

"Believe that we will send you checks, but then take all the money back through our corporations, but you can eat chemicals for it!"

and the masses cry and chant, "yes, yes, we know you care!!!"

Let's all just huff some more and be happy. .. happy... happpy.. 

[sheswheels]

I hear you.  I wish we had a Jesse Ventura and Alex Jones over here.  I have been trying to talk to people over hear for a while now and am mostly met with hostility.  That said I was one of the people that believed the official stories for a long time so I cant get angry back, however frustrating it is.  When people are dumbed down and are fed the kind of trash that was aired last night by the (ooooh) BBC, then you cant expect much else.  A good job has been done on us because we are so busy trying to make ends meet, feed the kids etc that there is very little real actual time, never mind emotional, left to donate to real enquiry.  People dont like to think that they should be more scared that they are already.  That is the pity of it all.
