Turning the Tables: New Book Looks at How WTC Restaurant Workers Used 9/11 Tragedy As Organizing Opportunity

NYC11 Feb 2009
Atop the North Tower of the World Trade Center, employees from every nationality graced the tables of the Windows on the World restaurant serving exquisite wines and delicacies while speaking in their native tongues for the benefit of tourists that came to dine at one of the city’s must-see attractions. But after the 9/11 attacks, the plethora of languages was snuffed out. The fall of the towers took the lives of 73 Windows on the World employees, displacing hundreds more. In the years that followed, Windows on the World survivors found themselves still struggling to recover from the loss of their jobs and their co-workers while watching in dismay as anti-immigrant sentiments gained strength in the larger society.

The Reflecting Pool

Los Angeles17 Feb 2008
A narrative film challenging the official story of 9/11 premiered in Los Angeles in January and continues to show on weekends, including President's Day. This film is a damning look at the media's coverage of 9/11, propaganda, and a piercing look at the complex search for truth.

The Reflecting Pool--a narrative film that recently premiered in Los Angeles-- opens with a television interview of a journalist who has just written a book on Communist propaganda in the Soviet Union.

The journalist, Alex Prokop, is asked by his editor to review a video about September 11th and write an article comparing the official narrative--as expressed in the 9/11 Commission Report--to the facts about the event. Guided in his task by Paul Cooper, the father of one of the victims who has become an ardent researcher on the topic, Prokop spends two weeks in New York and Washington D.C., interviewing people and discovering damning information never mentioned in the 9/11 Report. The FBI becomes involved, and Prokop is attacked by a lawsuit and the media in an effort to discredit his story. From the newswire: The Reflecting Pool by Carol Brouillet

Japan Parliament- Fujita Questions US version of 9-11/ Asks can they arrest Pres. Bush?

Miami22 Jan 2008
Don’t expect the New York Times or CNN to report on Fujita Yukihisa’s grilling of Japanese PM Fukuda over the official 9/11 fairy tale. Yukihisa is a member of the House of Councillors in the Diet, that is to say the national legislature of Japan, and his questions about the transparent sham that is the official version of events is indeed a big deal — but not as important in America as the travails of Britney. Yukihisa’s presentation was all the more important due to the fact he was the Chief Cabinet Secretary under former PM Junichiro Koizumi in 2001.

The Crucial Question of 9/11: What Went Wrong?

Seattle12 Sep 2007
We all remember where we were and what we were doing on the fateful Tuesday morning six years ago. The trauma was so great that it was impossible to ask the crucial questions about what went wrong. We were not ready to look at possible government failures and errors. The people who lost family members on 9/11 have a right to know the truth about what went wrong. More importantly, they need to be assured that the mistakes and errors made by our government will never happen again.

From 9/11 To the September 'Surge': Towards a War Without End?

NYC12 Sep 2007
As General David Petraeus carries Bush Administration water on Capitol Hill, the Indypendent and NYC Indymedia take a loom back at previous coverage of the surge and Petraeus' checkered career.

Meet Gen. David Petraeus: His Militia Strategy Plunged Iraq Into a Civil War, And Now He’s Back for More (June 2007): "If any one general symbolizes the failure that is Iraq, it is Petraeus."

Bush’s Iraq Strategy for 2007: A Second Civil War or Genocide (January 2007): "The Bush administration settled on a surge of extra troops not to prevent defeat on the military battlefield of Iraq – the war has long been lost – but defeat on the political battlefield at home."

Escalating the Antiwar Movement? (February 2007): "After four years of marching, Iraq War opponents look to ramp up resistance."

Meanwhile, NYC Indymedia and the Indypendent looks back at their past coverage of September 11, from 2001 until today. As Mike Burke noted on September 13, 2001, "wouldn’t fighting terror with terror propel the nation, and indeed the world, into a war where there may be no winners?" || Inside the Apocalypse (Indy Archive 9/13/2001) || The Terror of Waiting (Indy Archive, 9/13/2001) || We Need Real Security (Indy Archive, 9/13/2001) || Rising Hatred (Indy Archive, 9/13/2001) || How Should We Respond (Indy Archive, 9/13/2001) || Aftershocks (Indy Archive, 9/13/2001)

Naomi Klein Launches New Book, 'The Shock Doctrine,' in NYC

NYC12 Sep 2007
Klein exposes how moments of collective crisis—9/11, the tsunami, or Hurricane Katrina for example—have been used as opportunities for rapid-fire corporate raids on societies reeling from shock. She calls this phenomenon disaster capitalism. In contrast to the popular myth of this movement’s peaceful global victory, Klein shows how it has exploited moments of shock and extreme violence in order to implement its economic policies in so many parts of the world—from Chile to Russia, China to Iraq, South Africa to Canada. Often a refusal to comply results in distinctly more corporeal shocks: the shock of torture. Pinochet’s Chile and Guantánamo Bay are just two examples.

What Did Israel Know in Advance of the 9/11 Attacks?

Portland08 Mar 2007
It's no small boon to the U.S. government that the story of 9/11-related Israeli espionage has been thus relegated: the story doesn't fit in the clean lines of the official narrative of the attacks. It brings up concerns not only about Israel's obligation not to spy inside the borders of the United States, its major benefactor, but about its possible failure to have provided the U.S. adequate warning of an impending devastating attack on American soil. Furthermore, the available evidence undermines the carefully cultivated image of sanctity that defines the U.S.- Israel relationship. These are all factors that help explain the story's disappearance, and they are compelling reasons to revisit it now.
