"9.11 Revealed"

I just finished reading the new book, 9.11 Revealed, by Ian Henshall and Rowland Morgan, that examines the skeptic case for why the official 9/11 story is wrong.

Overall, the book is very well-done and I strongly recommend it. I think it is probably the most concise and clearest book on 9/11 so far, and even though I've read several other 9/11 books, it still contained some new information for me. I will be posting about some of the more inrteresting bits from the book over the next few days. The book was not perfect, but it did an excellent job of putting the story together very concisely. I particularly liked that they harped on the bizarre fact that not one of the eight 9/11 pilots was able to send out a hijack signal to the ground, when the hijackers were officially only armed with knives. They also talk about how the hijackers could have taken over the plane and why the pilots weren't alerted when there was supposedly violent scuffles in the passenger compartment. These are points that many of the other 9/11 books I have read have not mentioned much, if at all, yet I regard these points as highly suspicious.

Ranking the 9/11 books that I have read (on a scale of 1-10, 10 being best):
"9.11 Revealed" gets a 9

"9/11 Synthetic Terror, Made in USA" by Webster G. Tarpley, gets an 8

"The New Pearl Harbor, Disturbing Questions About the Bush Administration and 9/11" by David Ray Griffin, gets a 7

"The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions And Distortions" by David Ray Griffin, gets a 7

"Crossing the Rubicon" by Michael C. Ruppert, gets a 6

"The Terror Timeline" by Paul Thompson, gets a 6

"Welcome to Terrorland" by Daniel Hopsicker, gets a 5


My score is based on a combination of overall readibility, important information, credibility, and clarity.

"9.11 Revealed" does well on all these points.

"Crossing the Rubicon" has important information but is low on clarity and readibility. The credibility of Ruppert is in some doubt, but I think most of the information in this book is accurate.

"The Terror Timeline" is filled with important information, but is very difficult (if not impossible) to read as a book.

"Welcome to Terrorland" was very readable and had good information, but lacked clarity and credibility.

The three top reads for me are: "9.11 Revealed", "9/11 Synthetic Terror, Made in USA" and "The New Pearl Harbor, Disturbing Questions About the Bush Administration and 9/11".

The professional design, abundant references, and sober-sounding style of writing in 9/11 Revealed creates the illusion of serious reporting. Unfortunately, the book is anything but that. Rather, it uses an appearance of journalism in order to insert numerous poison pills -- ludicrous ideas whose purpose is to discredit challenges to the official story.

9/11 Revealed includes, in some form, almost every major hoax that has plagued the 9/11 Truth Movement, even the most ridiculous of these: that pods were mounted under the jets that hit the WTC towers. The hoaxes presented in here have been so thoroughly debunked over and over that I can't imagine why they are included except to intentionally discredit the movement.

Readers who have not researched the attack will also not be aware of the book's critical omissions, such as its avoidance of the direct evidence of controlled demolition of the Twin Towers and WTC Building 7. Instead of including the strongest evidence for demolitions, already exposed on many 9/11 websites, we get outrageous excuses serving as cover, such as the idea that demolition charges must have been installed in the WTC towers at some point earlier to "prevent a sideways fall onto neighboring Manhattan."

I guess you should check with your building manager if you are in a highrise -- your building may be rigged to explode!

Sad to see the hoaxes packaged in a slick format and mixed with a lot of what appears to be the real evidence, but that's how these things are done. Thus, while pretending to reveal the crime, this book, instead, serves to subtly reinforce the official story.
