Now put that on top of the fact that she may have seen things that nobody else saw. Then how she looked when questioned. I think someone got to her, and basically told her that since she knows for sure that it was a hoax and since she is a hippy and any youthful indescrescions wont discredit her, basically they will get rid of her and make it look like natural causes. All of us in this fight to expose the truth have a limit, unless and until you have no fear, she still has fear and for that reason i think she chooses to stay behind when others of us keep marching forward. When she doubted the nafta highway is when my questions popped up. If Amy has been a conduit for letting big news hit the public slowly before it gets dropped on us as a whole, fine, ill deal with that. she may not hold as high a place as she did before but im not ready to vote her off the island yet Lately she has had a strange cough, and she had a thing with her mouth, the NWO will throw her under the bus if they dont think they can use her anymore. I think her best bet is to spill it and do it loud while she still can. - Two Cents Sat, 19 Jan 2008 18:34:14 +0100 http://atlanticfreepress.com/news/1/2562-what-would-it-be-like-to-be-amy-goodman-food-for-thought-12-part-i.html#comment-3159 "Here the very future of the republic—of more—is at stake and she won’t budge, won’t acknowledge even the merest shred of truth even when videotape makes her prior knowledge of WT7’s collapse all but indisputable." So how about all the other people in the picture who appear to be running or trying to get away from the building? Are they too part of the 9/11 conspiracy with "prior knowledge" that Building Seven was going to collapse? Did it occur to you that maybe the people in that area were chased away from the building area due to the fact that two buildings had already collapsed? Your assertion gives the clear implication that Amy "knew" as in being told beforehand by some authoritative source, or being in on the conspiracy to demolish WT7. That is quite an assertion to make, guy, without proof. Maybe this is the kind of irrresponsible loose talk that keeps Amy from having you and other who share your views on her show. to Diogenes: Do you think maybe Amy couldn't actually go and stand on the pile of rubbish with her microphone because the area was blocked off? Do you know that police were making people leave the immediate area in the aftermath of the collapse of buildings? Given the chaotic situation, police barriers, and rubble, Amy was about as close as one could get during those first 4 hours. The Firehouse studio being only 2-3 blocks away *is* practically at Ground Zero. Your attempt to make Amy into some kind of liar isn't going to work. Again, if you guys want to be taken seriously, then let's show some responsibilty in the assertions you make. Each time you attempt to exaggerate the facts you only make your assertions or beliefs look all the more wild and unrealistic. - a guest Mon, 08 Oct 2007 07:21:45 +0100 http://atlanticfreepress.com/news/1/2562-what-would-it-be-like-to-be-amy-goodman-food-for-thought-12-part-i.html#comment-3153 Eric: Thanks for bringing attention to 9/11 Truth. Not sure if you're aware of the extent of COINTELPRO infiltration of the Truth Movement, though. Last month, shortly before the 6th anniversary, and ever since, we've seen Webster Tarpley "flip" and become a provocateur/disruptor: http://tinyurl.com/2yqm95 Tarpley's Mini-Me, Daniel Abrahamson, came out as a provocateur also, as a look at his recent commentary at his site falseflagnews.com will illuminate. Kevin Barrett, while always smart and affable, is a dubious actor at best; as he acts as "disinformation enabler" by keeping blatant agents like Jim Fetzer, Morgan Reynolds, and Judy Wood in circulation; Barrett justifying this destructiveness with a "big tent" pitch. http://tinyurl.com/2f4xxc http://tinyurl.com/27r98c http://tinyurl.com/yqoexx Audio Series on COINTELPRO/Disinfo in 9/11 Truth: http://tinyurl.com/2288nm There are no doubt many other agents posturing as "leaders" within 9/11 Truth, and we won't know who they are until they've completed the "credibility-building" phase of their infiltration, and "flip" to become destroyers-from-within as Tarpley, Abrahamson, & FetzerCo have done, and which appears imminent with Barrett. Please consider distancing yourself from these shills, rather than promoting them, IE recommending Tarpley & Barrett's books in your 9/11 reading list. Their *actions* indicate that they exist to divide/conquer/discredit/destroy this movement from within- as you'll discover via the links above. Thanks! - a guest Mon, 08 Oct 2007 00:15:55 +0100 http://atlanticfreepress.com/news/1/2562-what-would-it-be-like-to-be-amy-goodman-food-for-thought-12-part-i.html#comment-3152 To: a guest: Ridiculous condemnation Well, I suppose that you would make a good O.J. juror. Your uncritical infatuation with so-called Leftist journalists is what is ridiculous. I suppose it’s OK that Noam Chomsky says that Oswald shot Kennedy, in spite of all the evidence pointing to the CIA doing it. I suppose Amy Goodman's non-reporting of the North American Union is fine too. Have you heard of the Trans-Texas Corridor? That's just one part of the NAFTA Superhighway that will run from the southern tip of Mexico where North American-bound ships will one day unload--killing all those millions of stevedore workers' jobs in the U.S. and Canada--and travel all the way north to Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. We will all be one big nation with a new southern border—Guatemala. All the millions of Mexicans will be able to travel without the hassles of borders all the way to Canada to work and live, with no restrictions. The murder of the dollar is well under way and is also part of this Grand Plan. Ever heard of the Amero? That’s going to be our new currency for the NAU. Some reports say that they are already printed and in storage in large American banks. Where is Amy Goodman on this outrage? I challenge you to go to the archives and enter North American Union or Security and Prosperity Partnership. You will not find one word. We are all victims of the greatest mind control experiment in world history. Some of us have, with great effort, pulled out the invisible electrodes that have been controlling us. You must find it impossible to face reality. Try pulling out your own mind controlling electrodes and wake up. Since when is anyone beyond critical assessment? Especially someone that is in the spotlight as Goodman? Is 9/11 not a big deal to you? Is the biggest mass murder in the history of this country not important to you? Is not the genocide of our fellow citizens in the military in Afghanistan and Iraq not important to you, besides the millions of Iraqi’s murdered since 1991? 9/11 was the key that opened the door to this insanity. This was a coup d’etat. Don’t you get it? Where is Goodman on Chemtrails? No one knows what they are spraying up there, but since the military is doing it, it can’t be good. Not a word on this from Goodman. What if they are spraying the primary part of a binary weapon? Ever think of that? Goodman says that she reported from Ground Zero. When? I went to the Democracy Now! archives and listened to all four hours of her program on September 11. She NEVER went to Ground Zero, even though by her own admission the Firehouse studio is only a couple of blocks away. The biggest catastrophic event in the last 100 years and she stayed at the station watching CNN! She admits that that is where she was getting her news. What kind of reporter does that? I challenge you to go to the archives and listen to all four hours as I did. Then I challenge you to listen to the next day’s program, the day after she witnessed WTC7 collapse. Not one word about WTC7, but she did have on Robert Fisk to help cement the idea of Osama being the one that organized it. Even the FBI says that Osama had no ties to 9/11. Did Amy Goodman report that? No, it came from the Muckraker Report—one of the online journals that tell us the real news. A year ago, I tried to tell one of you NPR/Democracy Now! true believers that Cheney was planning on dropping B61-11 nuclear bombs on Iran. His response was: “What? Those are hydrogen bombs. There is no way the government is going to do that. I’d know. I never heard it on NPR!” Well, the cat is out of the bag, but it didn’t get out by Democracy Now! or NPR. NPR finally reported it after it was already all over the net and the foreign papers. We’re going to be toast because of blind people like you that refuse to take off your own blindfold. The refusal to face the truth is an act of cowardice, plain and simple, and that fear is going to be the solvent that dissolves the bond that was once the United States of America—before there was a USAPATRIOT Act, The Military Commissions Act, The Warner Defense Authorization Act, the totally illegal signing statements and illegal Presidential Directives. We are living in a Fascist police state that is slowly metastasizing across every inch of this country. When martial law is eventually declared, programs like Goodman’s will still be on the air, but even then you won’t get it. What a shame. In the end, you will be forced to face the music that will be something like this: [So] when night in her rusty dungeon hath imprisoned our eyesight, and that we are shut separately in our chambers from resort, the devil keepeth his audit in our sin-guilty consciences; no sense but surrenders to our memory a true bill of parcels of his detestable impieties. The table of our heart is turned to an index of iniquities, and all our thoughts are nothing but texts to condemn us.

Sure. There are also "unanswered questions" about the Spanish Armada and about the death of Juluis Ceasar. In fact there are plenty of "Unanswered Questions" about what is happening RIGHT NOW in Iraq. Poll after poll states that Americans were dissatisfied with the 9-11 Commission. Additional polls state that Americans do not further EXPECT to know everything about 9-11. The "Conspiracists" go on and on, yet aside from endless maybes and speculation they present us with no physical evidence for their claims of conspiracy. Who knows, perhaps they have a case. But if so, when will they kindly present us with irrefutable evidence, which of course, would be court-sustainable PHYSICAL EVIDENCE? Unless and until they do that-- they are merely blowing in the wind by consumning energy on the false supposition that even could they obtain some bloody dagger--- that it would somehow magically change everything that has since occured. I'm afraid that it's a tragic waste of time.

So why shouldn't Amy shed her formidable light on 9/11? Could it be she's protecting the folks who provide her grants to stay on the radio? Unlikely it's sheer ignorance or even mailice. Seems like a nice person. Perhaps it's narcolepsy, a common journalistic malaise. In fact Thomas Friedman of the New York Times told us recently, "9/11 is over." Yes, that was his story. And here was my riposete "9/11 is not 'over, Mr. Friedman." is here: onlinejournal.com/artman/publish/article_2496.shtml. I also emailed the online Times Op-Ed page the piece. Haven't heard back yet. More storks with their heads in the Ground Zero. But keep pulling, folks, and you Eric. Sooner or later they'll pop. Good luck, Jerry Mazza, NYC Associate Editor, Online Journal. - a guest Sun, 07 Oct 2007 21:10:31 +0100 http://atlanticfreepress.com/news/1/2562-what-would-it-be-like-to-be-amy-goodman-food-for-thought-12-part-i.html#comment-3149 Your attack on Amy Goodman seems to fall under the heading of "The Left eats its own." Her response to Kevin Barrett, who comes off in the video as a self-aggrandizing poop, seemed quite reasonable-- [quote]Overall, I would say that everything that happened on September 11th should be fully investigated. Of course I don’t think that the 9/11 Commission was an adequate investigation. And I agree that there are a lot of questions that have to be answered.[/quote] That, of course, did not satisfy Barrett because he wants his cause to be her cause and to use her show as his vehicle. If Amy Goodman decides to give play to voices other than Barrett's, I cannot regard that as "hypocrisy." It appears that you think the events of 9/11 are the "key to everything"--that if you could just get everybody to believe what you believe, the world would be saved. You write, [quote]it becomes apparent to those who agree with Webster Tarpley that the “only. . . way to erode Bush's hard core base. . . is by attacking the 9/11 myth”; to those who do agree with Paul Craig Roberts that “Today the US media serves as propaganda ministry for the government’s wars and police state”; to those who do believe, therefore, that telling the truth about 9/11 and holding the Bushists accountable for the crimes they clearly and demonstrably committed—that [b]only this can save restore stolen Constitutional rights and freedoms, restore the republic itself, and very possibly safeguard the stability of the entire world[/b] by preventing the fulfillment of the most insane and blood-curdling of the military and globally hegemonic plans and desires of the Bush-Cheney administration and of the “overworld power” that controls it. [/quote] My oh my. "Only this" can do it, huh? I can think of any number of revelations that might upend this administration if they were broadly reported, broadly accepted by the public and seen as vital to the public. The 9/11 shenanigans are just one among many. So it may be that you have a tactical disagreement with Amy Goodman as to what is necessary for bringing change. So be it. But I hardly see any justification in that for the name-calling in which you're indulging. And if I may, let me give my own perspective own tactics for change: There are any number of questionable deeds in the history of this country about which we do not know all the details--and probably never will. If countering the Bush administration depends upon making such-and-such a revelation, having it reported and making it believable, I'm afraid the Republic is lost. Even as reported by the mainstream media the news is rife with tales of the misfeasance and malfeasance of the Bush administration. A visitor from Mars might well assume that there is plenty of information available to bring down this administration. But then the visitor from Mars would not understand the dynamics of our politics--the sense of powerlessness on the one hand and indifference on the other that pervades the public mind. Clearly Amy Goodman tries to bring on guests who will stir that public mind. Her selection may not comport with your judgments or preferences. But that does not make her a "hypocrit." It makes you a one-note ideologue. - a guest Sun, 07 Oct 2007 19:05:16 +0100 http://atlanticfreepress.com/news/1/2562-what-would-it-be-like-to-be-amy-goodman-food-for-thought-12-part-i.html#comment-3143 after all of this i am still not clear,who?is amy goodman ?and why should we all be so worried about her ?? - a guest Sat, 06 Oct 2007 20:02:29 +0100
