3-Beam matte-finish poster with photo by Scott Star

We have an exciting special for you in our AE911Truth store this winter.

You get half off our 18" x 24" cover-stock 3-Beam matte-finish poster – the masterpiece of photographer Scott Star, who captured the third beam of light that dedicated volunteers projected into the sky above lower Manhattan in 2010, for only $4.99!

Shortly after 9/11/01, officials commemorated the tragic events with two powerful beams of light projected into the New York evening cityscape – promoting the false story that doesn't explain, or even mention, the collapse of the third tower. Nine years later, we got it right when we erected a third beam to light up the Manhattan skyline – in another brilliant testimony to the worldwide effort by activists to end the cover-up and educate New Yorkers about the truth of the explosive destruction of all three WTC skyscrapers.

Part 3: Obeying and Believing Authority 

© by Frances T. Shure, 2014

Editor’s Note: Frances Shure, M.A., L.P.C., has performed an in-depth analysis addressing a key issue of our time: “Why Do Good People Become Silent—or Worse—About 9/11?” The resulting essay, to be presented here as a series, is a synthesis of reports on academic research as well as clinical observations.

In answering the question in the title of this essay, last month’s segment, Part 2, addressed the anthropological study, Diffusion of Innovations, which discusses how change occurs in societies. These anthropologists discovered that, within diverse cultures, there can be found groups that vary in their openness to new ideas and technology—groups that fall within a neat bell curve. The success of the spread of an innovative technology or new idea reliably hinges on one point: whether or not opinion leaders vouch for it. In this context, the mainstream media can rightly be seen as promoting the official myth of 9/11, and therefore aiding and abetting the crimes of September 11, 2001.

We continue Ms. Shure’s analysis in Part 3 with the authority experiments of Stanley Milgram, Jane Elliott, and Philip Zimbardo.

In his famous 1961 experiment on obedience to authority, Yale University psychologist Stanley Milgram set out to answer the question, “Could it be that Eichmann and his million accomplices in the Holocaust were just following orders? Could we call them all accomplices?”

Incredible supporters of AE911Truth,

ReThink911 Times Square

Of all the amazing projects that you have sponsored us to carry out in 2013, none was more inspiring to me than the 50-foot tall billboard towering over tens of thousands of people in New York's bustling Times Square below - where, on September 11th, we delivered a powerful set of speeches to the crowd of 250 AE911Truth supporters and others gathered beneath.

I was also deeply struck by the massive letter-writing campaign to pressure local and global corporate media centers. Because of your sustained efforts, New York's metropolitan giant, the Village Voice featured the ReThink911 call for a new 9/11 investigation in its New Year's front page story about the "changes New Yorkers want to see in 2014" – yet another sign of the great effort AE911Truth supporters have been making and why you should join them today.

This milestone raised the bar of achievement for AE911Truth's top agenda item in 2014:

Outreach to the Public and News Media:

With you as a member on our team, we will also have much greater success in breaking through the corporate media’s censorship – as local New York AE911Truth Action Group leader Austin Farwell did recently with NY’s Village VoiceYou know that the people must be given the facts about the intentional explosive destruction of the World Trade Center and that they must be inspired to act. You know that the corporate media must be pressured and embarrassed until the censorship of 9/11 Truth cracks wide open. And you know that only if you join with us and play your part in this historic endeavor will we be able to break through in 2014. It is not too late.

AE911Truth Teams Sweep Through Capitol Hill

Film Review: 9/11 in the Academic Community

9/11 in the Academic Community is more watchable than most “9/11 truth” filmsThe exciting new documentary whose upcoming release we announced in a September 8 article is now here. 9/11 in the Academic Community was released for purchase on October 8, after having won an award for “Documentary Achievement” at the University of Toronto Film Festival earlier this year. At a manageable running time of 75 minutes, with a title designed to appeal to its target audience, and by avoiding hot-button phrases such as “9/11 Truth,” the film has an excellent chance of slipping out of the conspiracy theorist jacket and making inroads into the American and Canadian intellectual communities.

This is certainly a film that needed to be made. With few exceptions, there has been a deafening silence in the classrooms of North American campuses regarding many obvious and undeniable facts that undermine the official account of 9/11. If the faculty and students at institutions of higher learning cannot question and even contradict what we have been told by media and government about the “crime of the century” without being called “conspiracy theorists,” then what has become of the academic community? Those who wrote the U.S. Constitution and defeated the British Empire’s dominion over the American colonies well understood that the spirit of free inquiry and an understanding of history were key to a properly functioning democratic republic. Even with those freedoms and values, Benjamin Franklin famously predicted that it would be difficult for us to “keep it.” Nothing less is at stake with regard to the issues covered in this film.

9/11 in the Academic Community is more watchable than most “9/11 truth” films. One of its biggest strengths is that all of its speakers express criticisms of the way that the 9/11 account was advanced and how it’s been treated in the 12 years since then – mostly without sounding angry.

Representatives Express Willingness to Look at the Evidence

For several months supporters of Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth have been dialing into C-SPAN's morning call-in show, Washington Journal, to confront members of Congress, the media, and others with the scientific evidence proving that pre-planted explosives brought down the Twin Towers and World Trade Center Building 7 on 9/11. Some callers have implored legislators to support a new investigation into the complete, rapid destruction of all three modern steel skyscrapers.

Rep. Diana Degette, (D-CO)On October 20, 2013, Diana Degette, (D-CO), appeared as a guest on the morning show. Questioning Congress's credibility, a caller asked:

"My question is concerning credibility of Congress in all of this. What credibility does Congress have left to govern with when basic physics have already proven that Building 7, World Trade Center 7, was brought down by explosives on 9/11, and the majority of Congressmen are willingly ignorant of this fact or can only offer rehearsed outrage in response to direct questions about this evidence?"

Degette replied:
