Cover Up

A new book on 9/11 has been published by the former Senior Counsel to the official 9/11 Commission, John Farmer (also former Attorney General for New Jersey and currently Dean of the Rutgers-Newark School of Law).

In The Ground Truth (which I have not had a chance to read) Mr. Farmer actually shows that the official version of what happened on 9/11, as given in the Commission's final report, is almost entirely untrue. And if you can believe this, he actually wrote the official report of the 9/11 Commission. And now he is saying that it is based on lies told to the Commission.

...“at some level of the government, at some point in time…there was an agreement not to tell the truth about what happened... I was shocked at how different the truth was from the way it was described …. The [Norad air defense] tapes told a radically different story from what had been told to us and the public for two years. This is not spin.”

Governor Thomas Kean, co-chair of the 9/11 Commission, has said, “We to this day don’t know why NORAD [the North American Aerospace Command] told us what they told us, it was just so far from the truth. . . "

In 2006, The Washington Post reported..."Suspicion of wrongdoing ran so
deep that the 10-member commission, in a secret meeting at the end of its tenure
in summer 2004, debated referring the matter to the Justice Department for
criminal investigation, according to several commission sources. Staff members
and some commissioners thought that e-mails and other evidence provided enough
probable cause to believe that military and aviation officials violated the law
by making false statements to Congress and to the commission..."

What does Farmer's book tell us? Farmer offers no solutions, only a
total and full rejection of what was told and his own ideas concerning the total
failure of honesty on the part of the government, a government with something to
hide.
