Do Americans Live In A False Reality
Created By Orchestrated Events?
Paul Craig Roberts
Most people who are aware and capable of thought have
given up on what is called the “mainstream media.” The presstitutes have
destroyed their credibility by helping Washington to lie—“Saddam Hussein’s
weapons of mass destruction,” “Iranian nukes,” “Assad’s use of chemical
weapons,” “Russian invasion of Ukraine,” and so forth. The “mainstream media”
has also destroyed its credibility by its complete acceptance of whatever
government authorities say about alleged “terrorist events,” such as 9/11 and
Boston Marathon Bombing, or alleged mass shootings such as Sandy Hook and San
Bernardino. Despite glaring inconsistencies, contradictions, and security
failures that seem too unlikely to be believable, the “mainstream media” never
asks questions or investigates. It merely reports as fact whatever authorities
say.
The sign of a totalitarian or authoritarian state is a
media that feels no responsibility to investigate and to find the truth,
accepting the role of propagandist instead. The entire Western media has been
in the propaganda mode for a long time. In the US the transformation of
journalists into propagandists was completed with the concentration of a
diverse and independent media in six mega-corporations that are no longer run
by journalists.
As a consequence, thoughtful and aware people
increasingly rely on alternative media that does question, marshall facts, and
offers analysis in place of an unbelievable official story line.
The prime example is 9/11. Large numbers of experts
have destroyed the official story that has no factual evidence in its behalf.
However, even without the hard evidence that 9/11 truthers have provided, the
official story gives itself away. We are supposed to believe that a few Saudi
Arabians with no technology beyond box cutters and no support from any
government’s intelligence service were able to outwit the massive surveillance
technology created by DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) and NSA
(National Security Agency) and deal the most humiliating blow to a superpower ever
delivered in human history. Moreover, they were able to do this without the
President of the United States, the US Congress, and the “mainstream media”
demanding accountability for such a total failure of the high-tech national
security state. Instead of a White House led investigation of such a massive
security failure, the White House resisted for more than one year any
investigation whatsoever until finally giving in to demands from 9/11 families
that could not be bought off and agreeing to a 9/11 Commission.
The Commission did not investigate but merely sat and
wrote down the story told to it by the government. Afterwards, the Commission’s
chairman, co-chairman, and legal counsel wrote books in which they said that
information was withheld from the Commission, that the Commission was lied to
by officials of the government, and that the Commission “was set up to fail.”
Despite all of this, the presstitutes still repeat the official propaganda, and
there remain enough gullible Americans to prevent accountability.
Competent historians know that false flag events are
used to bring to fruition agendas that cannot otherwise be achieved. 9/11 gave
the neoconservatives, who controlled the George W. Bush administration, the New
Pearl Harbor that they said was necessary in order to launch their hegemonic
military invasions of Muslim countries. The Boston Marathon Bombing permitted a
trial run of the American Police State, complete with shutting down a large
American city, putting 10,000 armed troops and SWAT teams on the streets where
the troops conducted house to house searches forcing the residents out of their
homes at gunpoint. This unprecedented operation was justified as necessary in
order to locate one wounded 19 year old man, who clearly was a patsy.
There are so many anomalies in the Sandy Hook story
that it has generated a cottage industry of skeptics. I agree that there are
anomalies, but I don’t have the time to study the issue and come to my own
conclusion. What I have noticed is that we are not given many good explanations
of the anomalies. For example, in this video made from the TV news coverage,
the video’s creator makes a case that the person who
is the grieving father who lost his son is the same person outfitted in SWAT
clothes at Sandy Hook following the shooting. The person is identified as a
known actor. Now, it seems to me that this is easy to test. The grieving father
is known, the actor is known, and the authorities have to know who the SWAT
team member is. If these three people, who can pass for one another, can be
assembled in one room at the same time, we can dismiss the expose claimed in
this one video. However, if three separate people cannot be produced together,
then we must ask why this deception, which raises questions about the entire
story. You can watch the entire video or just skip to the 9:30 mark and observe
what appears to be the same person in two different roles.
The “mainstream media” has the ability to make these
simple investigations, but does not. Instead, the “mainstream media” calls
skeptics “conspiracy theorists.”
There is a book by Professor Jim Fetzer and Mike
Palecek that says Sandy Hook was a FEMA drill to promote gun control and that
no one died at Sandy Hook. The book was available on amazon.com but was
suddenly banned. Why ban a book?
I have not read the book and have no opinion. I
do know, however, that the police state that America is becoming certainly has
a powerful interest in disarming the public. I also heard today a news report
that people said to be parents of the dead children are bringing a lawsuit
against the gun manufacturer, which is consistent with Fetzer’s claim.
If the information Fetzer provides is correct,
clearly the US government has an authoritarian agenda and is using orchestrated
events to create a false reality for Americans in order to achieve the agenda.
It seems to me that Fetzer’s facts can be easily
checked. If his facts check out, then a real investigation is required. If his
facts do not check out, the official story gains credibility as Fetzer is one
of the most energetic skeptics.
Fetzer cannot be dismissed as a kook. He graduated magna
cum laude from Princeton University, has a Ph.D. from Indiana
University and was Distinguished McKnight University Professor at the
University of Minnesota until his retirement in 2006. He has had a National
Science Foundation fellowship, and he has published more than 100 articles and
20 books on philosophy of science and philosophy of cognitive science. He is an
expert in artificial intelligence and computer science and founded the
international journal Minds and Machines. In the late 1990s, Fetzer
was asked to organize a symposium on philosophy of mind.
For an intelligent person, the official stories of
President Kennedy’s assassination and 9/11 are simply not believable, because
the official stories are not consistent with the evidence and what we know.
Fetzer’s frustration with less capable and less observant people increasingly
shows, and this works to his disadvantage.
It seems to me that if the authorities behind the
official Sandy Hook story are secure with the official story, they would jump
on the opportunity to confront and disprove Fetzer’s facts. Moreover, somewhere
there must be photographs of the dead children, but, like the alleged large
number of recordings by security cameras of an airliner hitting the Pentagon,
no one has ever seen them. At least not that I know of.
What disturbs me is that no one in authority or in the
mainstream media has any interest in checking the facts. Instead, those who
raise awkward matters are dismissed as conspiracy theorists.
Why this is damning is puzzling. The government’s
story of 9/11 is a story of a conspiracy as is the government’s story of the
Boston Marathon Bombing. These things happen because of conspiracies. What is
at issue is: whose conspiracy? We know from Operation Gladio and Operation
Northwoods that governments do engage in murderous conspiracies against their
own citizens. Therefore, it is a mistake to conclude that governments do not
engage in conspiracies.
One often hears the objection that if 9/11 was a false
flag attack, someone would have talked.
Why would they have talked? Only those who organized the conspiracy would know.
Why would they undermine their own conspiracy?
Recall William Binney. He developed the surveillance
system used by NSA. When he saw that it was being used against the American
people, he talked. But he had taken no documents with which to prove his
claims, which saved him from successful prosecution but gave him no evidence
for his claims. This is why Edward Snowden took the documents and released
them. Nevertheless, many see Snowden as a spy who stole national security
secrets, not as a whistleblower warning us that the Constitution that protects
us is being overthrown.
High level government officials have contradicted
parts of the 9/11 official story and the official story that links the invasion
of Iraq to 9/11 and to weapons of mass destruction. Transportation Secretary
Norman Mineta contradicted Vice President Cheney and the official 9/11 story
timeline. Treasury Secretary Paul O’Neill has said that overthrowing Saddam
Hussein was the subject of the first cabinet meeting in the George W. Bush
administration long before 9/11. He wrote it in a book and told it on CBS News’
60 Minutes. CNN and other news stations reported it. But it had no effect.
Whistleblowers pay a high price. Many of them are in
prison. Obama has prosecuted and imprisoned a record number. Once they are
thrown in prison, the question becomes: “Who would believe a criminal?”
As for 9/11 all sorts of people have talked. Over 100
police, firemen and first responders have reported hearing and experiencing a large number of explosions in the Twin
Towers. Maintanence personnel report experiencing massive explosions in the
sub-basements prior to the building being hit by an airplane. None
of this testimony has had any effect on the authorities behind the official
story or on the presstitutes.
There are 2,300 architects and engineers who have
written to Congress requesting a real investigation. Instead of the request
being treated with the respect that 2,300 professionals deserve, the
professionals are dismissed as “conspiracy theorists.”
An international panel of scientists have reported the
presence of reacted and unreacted nanothermite in the dust of the World Trade
Centers. They have offered their samples to government agencies and to
scientists for confirmation. No one will touch it. The reason is clear. Today
science funding is heavily dependent on the federal government and on private
companies that have federal contracts. Scientists understand that speaking out
about 9/11 means the termination of their career.
The government has us where it wants us—powerless and
disinformed. Most Americans are too uneducated to be able to tell the
difference between a building falling down from asymetrical damage and one
blowing up. Mainstream journalists cannot question and investigate and keep
their jobs. Scientists cannot speak out and continue to be funded.
Truth telling has been shoved off into the alternative
Internet media where I would wager the government runs sites that proclaim wild
conspiracies, the purpose of which is to discredit all skeptics.
