Final Word from Tuesday, July 8, 2008



An amazing thing happened a month ago. The Financial Times printed a long article about the 9/11 Truth Movement. The article gave a certain legitimacy to a group of conspiracy theorists who believe the Bush administration planned and carried out, or at least shut its eyes to, the attacks on New York and Washington of Sept. 11, 2001. These "truthers" argue that a real investigation of 9/11 has never been conducted. It might interest Czechs that some of them, such as David Ray Griffin in "The New Pearl Harbor" and Dylan Avery in "Loose Change," suggest that one of the goals of the alleged plan was to speed up deployment of the U.S.'s missile-defense shield. It's likely true that without 9/11, Condoleezza Rice wouldn't be visiting Prague today to sign a radar treaty. Regardless of whether the truthers are right, articles like the one in the FT boost the odds that unanswered questions about 9/11 will at some point drastically alter the world's perception of the U.S.[Czech Republic war on terrorism secretary of state United States of America]
