The whole story of the 19 "hijackers"

The whole story of the 19 "hijackers" seems to me a crude fiction. At
least 5 of the 19 who were indicted in the United States District
Court for the Eastern District of Virginia in December of 2001, these
19 named by an FBI attachment in the case against Zacarias Moussaoui,
had vigorously declared themselves alive, after all, in Saudi Arabia
or Morocco, in the few weeks immediately following 9/11.

The killing of JFK and the attacks on 9/11 both served objectives
that the super elites deemed urgent. JFK was threatening to pull
troops out of Vietnam and to dismantle the Federal Reserve Bank and
to further arms-reduction treaties with the Soviet Union. He'd
already yanked former Wall Street attorney Allen Dulles as Director
of the CIA. He threatened financial and militarist super elites'
profits and plans. So they took him out.

Nine-one-one is more complicated. Nine-one-one was planned for many
years, as pages in Brzezinski's 1997 The Grand Chessboard and the
2000 Project for a New American Century study (Dick Cheney, Donald
Rumsfeld, Richard Perle and Zalmay Khalizad among its authors)
suggest when they imagine that "a new Pearl Harbor" might be
necessary to arouse public support for more military spending and
U.S. wars in Central Asia and the Middle East.

The colossal, crude crime of 9/11 is also a far more desperate move
than the murder of JFK. By August of 2001 the U.S. economy was
foundering even for super elites. Nine-one-one and its subsequent
transfusions of Federal capital gave several months of respite. By
July of 2002, however, material vulnerabilities threatened to sink
even the biggest capitalists. Through their holdings
in "derivatives", the JP Morgan Chase Bank, Citigroup, and the Bank
of America are at risk for a combined amount of over $40 trillion -
an amount of liability many, many times greater than their combined
amount of assets. On July 23, 2002 - on a single day of trading - JP
Morgan Chase lost 18.1 percent of its total value. July of 2002 was
also when government and media drums began to beat for U.S. military
action in Iraq and Saudi Arabia.

What I see more comprehensively is a skein of conspiracies and
pretexts by which the U.S. super elites have ruthlessly killed people
and launched wars and grabbed territories and multiplied their
profits since the late 19th century. The sinking of the Maine, the
sinking of the Lusitania, the attack on Pearl Harbor, the
fraudulent "Gulf of Tonkin incident" are a few of the conspiracies
and pretexts we know. Why Noam Chomsky and other ostensibly moral
critics don't call out these conspiracies is a question they'll have
to answer. It may be that examination of these conspiracies would
reveal the real structures and criminals behind them.

All that said, let me end with hope. Only one force on Earth can
directly confront and defeat the U.S. Corporate State and its
criminal government. That force is us, the overwhelming majority of
the people in this country. Despite the horrors of 9/11, the
overwhelming majority in New York City are with that same majority
around the world, I think, in opposing any American Empire.

BOB FELDMAN: Have the mainstream or alternative radio show producers
in New York City been eager to invite you onto their shows to discuss
before a New York City audience the issues you raise in your book on
the 9/11 events?

DON PAUL: I've gotten no contact from either mainstream or
alternative radio producers in New York City about the book. Although
it lacks a distributor and exposure of it has not been widespread, it
has been up on the www.onlinejournal.com  and
www.questionsquestions.net  sites and orders for it are coming from
across the country and around the world. I should also add: Neither
has anyone from KPFA or any Pacifica station contacted me about the
book, though I gave it last December to Dennis Bernstein and Davey D
and others with whom I was allied in "the fight for Free Speech
Radio" four years ago. There's an interview with the warm and
wonderful Sue Supriano up at www.suesupriano.com  and I understand
that more stuff through other outlets is upcoming.

BOB FELDMAN: How can readers in New York City go about obtaining a
copy of your book?

DON PAUL: The easiest way online to access purchase of it is through
Online Journal. Front cover of book can be clicked at the top of
books and tapes in the right-hand column at www.onlinejournal.com .
There is a direct URL to the book's page on my
http://www.wireonfire.com/donpaul/911.html  site. But going through
www.onlinejournal.com  will get people to some good pieces posted
there.
