Simple 9/11 Truth facts refuting the Daily Beast attack on Ron Paul
| WTF News |
Olivia Nuzzi of The Daily Beast authored an opinionated hit piece on Ron Paul for expressing mild fact-driven beliefs that the full truth is not known about the September 11th attacks. It is sad that a news website with so many resources was unwilling to acknowledge real facts about 9/11 Truth in the process of attacking Ron Paul for speaking the truth.

Former Rep. Ron Paul believes that the government knew beforehand, in detail, about the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, and that the information has been kept from the public in a classified section of the 9/11 commission report.When the host of Money and Markets, Charles Goyette, recently said that it is “shocking that the American people are prohibited from knowing the whole truth about 9/11,” Paul countered: “Boy, that’s for sure. It’s shocking, but then, when you stop and think about it, shouldn’t we expect this from our government? Which is really sad.”

But political risk could not stop the elder Paul, who then went onto say: “I’ve come to the conclusion that all government commissions are designed to protect the government. … I believe that if we ever get the full truth [about 9/11], we’ll find out that our government had it in the records exactly what the plans were, or at least close to it.”
Reasonable man that he is, Paul conceded that the U.S. government probably didn’t actually plot 9/11 because, you know, that would be crazy: “Does [foreknowledge of the attacks] prove that our president and others actually sat down and laid the plans and did this? I don’t think it does, but I think it does show that one of the reasons why they want to cover it up is because they don’t want to say, the FBI and the CIA were, at the time, spending $40 billion a year to spy on everybody to make us safe and secure, and therefore they really messed up, so they had to hide that.”
Paul then offered that “our own government did more harm to the liberties of the American people than Bin Laden did.”
The subject of 9/11 Truth is too complex to be discussed in one article. To actually learn the questions that should be asked, visit our beginner’s guide to 9/11 Truth.
The vaunted question of who actually did 9/11 gets murky answers and none of them are good.
At WTF News, it won’t be said that the attacks were done by one single entity like Israel, Saudi Arabia, Bush/Cheney administration, “the government” or anything else vague in that context. All of the previous parties named have evidence that shows complicity, willful blindess and inexplicable lies that conflict with the official story. However the singular word for those entities is really not appropriate as people responsible within those entities do not represent the whole. It should also be noted that these 28 pages should not attribute all blame to Saudi involvement as that would ignore serious evidence on the parts of the others named above.
Beyond that, the scope of this particular article will deal with only publicly available info which refutes all of the basic fallacies in the Daily Beast article.
