There is an elephant in the American living room that the media and those in power pretend is invisible: 911 was an inside job.
There is an active 911 movement trying to uncover the truth, but you'll find it only on a few websites. The rare times that 911 activists are covered in the mainstream corporate news, they are held up to ridicule.
Even progressive websites and print and Internet magazines scoff at the evidence. A Web magazine that I have written for, ran a piece I wrote about it for them, then scornfully repudiated me in an editor's note.
But the public is a different story. A new New York Times/CBS News poll says that 84 pct of the people reject the official 9/11 fable.
That leaves only 16 pct who believe that the government is telling the truth about 9/11 and the intelligence prior to the attacks -- mostly Congress and the mainstream media presumably.
The 84 pct figure mirrors other recent polls on the same issue. A Canadian poll put the figure at 85%. A CNN poll had the figure at 89 pct, and 80 pct supported Charlie Sheen when he said 9/11 was an inside job.
So what do we do now? In the real world, absolutely nothing.
