This is an archive of past Bay Area 9-11 events, from January 2010 - recent events. The events that I have organized are in my blog/archive, but there is so much happening in the Bay Area- many 9-11 events that I have not organized or even heard about- this just reflects the ones that I have been aware of and have tried to help publicize. The most recent events will be added to the bottom of this list, oldest events are at the top.Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance Meeting Thursday, January 7, 2010, 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm

In a historic final interview, the late filmmaker and music promoter Aaron Russo goes in depth on the insider-knowledge given to him by a member of the Rockefeller family. Russo was told-- prior to 9/11-- of plans to stage terror attacks, invade foreign nations, and kick start a high-tech police state control grid that would track the populations' every move with implantable RFID microchips. Sound nuts? Think again! 147 min.

John Fitzgerald for Congress House Potluck Saturday, March 27, 6:00pm ~ 11:00pm
One of our members is running for Congress in CD 7! His stance on 9/11:
The truth about 9/11 is that we don’t know the truth about 9/11, and we should. There is mounting evidence of complicity by elements of our own government. The official story of 9/11 is self-contradictory and has already been refuted by the government itself as well as by massive evidence and witness testimony. As a Congressman I will sponsor legislation calling for a truly independent investigation into the events of 9/11.
Greet 'n' Eat with John and his family at a Lafayette house potluck party. Please email your RSVP to info@johnfitzgeraldforcongress.cominfo@johnfitzgeraldforcongress.com and they will send you the address.

San Francisco, CA 94103About the Green Festival... Back in January 2002 when we marched to demand a Congressional Investigation of 9/11, one person was particularly key to the meeting and the publicity- that was Kevin Danaher of Global Exchange, who came up with the idea of "Demanding an investigation." Kevin has been an ally of the Truth Movement from the very beginning and is one of the few people who does a lot of public speaking, is highly visible, articulate and speaks out on the issue. This is the second time that we have actually had a booth at the Green Festival, it is a wonderful event and a great outreach opportunity for us. I asked Kevin about getting a 9/11 speaker and he said that he would address the issue- so be sure to catch his presentation and make sure he doesn't forget to mention it! Let us combine the Turth, Peace and Justice Movements in an environment where we are welcome! Our booth is #954 (in the East), north of the main stage/auditorium area this year. If you can help with set-up (on Friday), breakdown (on Sunday evening), tabling, please volunteer at the regular meetings, or contact- Carol cbrouillet(at)igc.org.

AE911Truth Local Action Groups Now Forming April 10th in Oakland
12noon to 4PM
To Local SF Bay Area AE911Truth Petition Signers & Supporters:
On behalf of Richard Gage, AIA, founder of Architects and Engineers for 911 Truth, we thank you for signing the petition calling for a REAL investigation into the destruction of the 3 World Trade Center skyscrapers on 9/11.
We need your creative help and energy!
Mr. Gage has been speaking out nonstop to present the evidence all around the country. But he is only one person. Now that over 1,000 Architects, Engineers and other building professionals have signed on to the petition, we’re building on the momentum of this milestone to kick–start a nationwide coordinated chain of independent and autonomous Action Groups.
Help us to start the first of what we intend to be many AE911Truth Action Groups — right here in the Bay Area. We want to give YOU, at the local level, an opportunity to come and work with other local petition signers to take REAL ACTION — to break through the media blackout in the last nine years.
Our first meeting/potluck lunch is intended to get the SF Bay Area action group(s) off and running — and to develop a clearly defined format and structure for future groups with the help of the SF Action Group templates, checklists, and online tools like Meetup. Please come and join with Mr. Gage and the SF Action Team from wherever you may live in the SF Bay Area because we want to start at least 4 groups: North Bay, South Bay, East Bay, and SF Peninsula. Future meetings will take place in your area. If you can’t make it to the first meeting but would like to help organize in your area please let us know.
We want to be ready with enough established Action Groups to broadcast a set of unified messages nationwide in time for the 9th anniversary of 9/11 in 2010. Your energy, input and professional connections are vital to our efforts.
Initial Goals for the AE911Truth Action Groups:
• EDUCATE A/E professionals, and BUILD PUBLIC DEMAND for investigation & accountability.
Formation Potluck/Meeting
• PROMOTE, support & create AE911Truth EVENTS across the country.
• BUILD ALLIANCES with first responders & other building trade members.
• Create additional OPPORTUNITIES to take ACTION regarding 9/11 Truth.Oakland, CA (must RSVP to get address)
Bring: Creative ideas, energy, pen & paper and a dish to share
Come even if you can't bring food – there will be plenty!RSVP: SFteam(at)ae911truth.org
Agenda: Form at least four local Action Groups, discuss local group structure, brainstorm action opportunitiesWe’ll meet at the home of one of our architects in Oakland to discuss and brainstorm the structure and activities of the Action Groups. We’ll also fill you in about the exciting events coming up May 7 & 8, in alliance with Firefighters for 9/11 Truth, in Marin (Friday) and San Leandro (Saturday).
Attendance is limited to the first 40 petition signers who RSVP. You must sign the AE911Truth petition in order to come. Sign now. Urgent — please reply today if you want to come. Once we receive your reply via email, we will let you know the address of the potluck meeting. Please keep the address confidential.
We hope you will join us to add your voice and input to this crucial expansion in AE911Truth’s history!

Erik Lawyer, Founder of Firefighters for 9/11 Truth and Richard Gage, AIA, Founder of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth9/11 Myths Exposed: Firefighters, Architects and Engineers Re-investigate the Destruction of the Three World Trade Center Skyscrapers Friday, May 7, 2010, 7:30 pm

San Rafael9/11 Myths Exposed: Firefighters, Architects and Engineers Re-investigate the Destruction of the Three World Trade Center Skyscrapers
On September 11th, 2001 the greatest destruction and loss of life associated with the terrorist attacks took place in New York City. After almost nine years and numerous government investigations, many public misconceptions persist about the events of that tragic day, especially regarding the unprecedented destruction of the World Trade Center in Lower Manhattan.
During this live multimedia presentation Seattle firefighter Erik Lawyer and SF Bay Area architect Richard Gage, AIA, will examine the myths surrounding the events at the World Trade Center.

On September 11th, 2001 the greatest destruction and loss of life associated with the terrorist attacks took place in New York City. After almost nine years and numerous government investigations, many public misconceptions persist about the events of that tragic day, especially regarding the unprecedented destruction of the World Trade Center in Lower Manhattan.

& "Can Nonviolence Go Where It Ain't Hardly Been Before?"Info (510)845-5481.
On 9/11, 1906, young Indian lawyer Mohandas K. Gandhi proclaimed the doctrine of satyagraha, truth or soul force, nonviolent direct action, civil disobedience, as the principled strategy for oppressed Indian workers in South Africa.
Thus began the sun setting on the British Empire, and the inspiration for the Civil Rights and anti-movements, Farmworkers struggle, Save The Redwoods, South African resistance, among others, during the war branded 20th century.
Peace for Keeps is a five year devotion which has held readings at the San Francisco waterfront Gandhi statue since 2006, on the Mahatma's October 2nd birthday, and celebrated in Berkeley the anniversary of the Peace Symbol February 21st ("Peacemas?"

Emergency Protest of Israeli Attack upon Free Gaza Flotilla Carrying Aid to Gaza
Tues. June 1, 4:30pm
Israeli Consulate
456 Montgomery St. (at California St.)
San FranciscoThe ANSWER Coalition, along with many other organizations and individuals, is co-sponsoring and organizing for emergency protests taking place around the country to denounce the Israeli military massacre of activists on a Gaza aid convoy. As many as 19 international activists were killed by Israel, with dozens injured. The death toll may rise.
In an act of piracy and a blatant violation of international law, the Israeli government has committed a cold-blooded massacre on the high seas against a group of courageous individuals whose only crime was to extend a hand of solidarity to the besieged and blockaded people in Gaza.
The Gaza aid flotilla is made up of seven ships carrying 700 people and bringing medical, construction and school supplies to besieged Palestinians in Gaza. It was attacked in international waters by 14 Israeli ships. Heavily armed Israeli commandos dropped onto the ships from helicopters and opened fire on the activists.
Gaza has been blockaded by Israel since 2007 with full backing by the U.S. government. The blockade is a brutal form of collective punishment aimed at strangling the Palestinian people. Since coming to office, the Obama administration has continued the enormous funding to Israel allowing the continued siege of Gaza, the occupation and expansion of Israeli settlements in the West Bank, and Israel's non-stop war against all of the Palestinian people. President Obama has promised at least $30 billion in military aid to Israel over the next 10 years.
Come out to these protests to condemn this outrageous massacre and call for an immediate end of the siege of Gaza.
The Free Gaza Movement has existed since August 2008. Their stated mission:
WRITTEN BY FREE GAZA MOVEMENT | 30 JANUARY 2009
Since August 2008, the Free Gaza Movement has sailed from Cyprus to the Gaza Strip on several successful voyages, bringing in international witnesses to see first hand the devastating effects of Israeli violence against the Palestinian people. Ours are the first international boats to journey to Gaza since 1967.
Details of the Free Gaza Flottilla and latest news can be found on the Free Daza Website- www.freegaza.orgWe are Italian, Irish, Canadian, Greek, Tunisian, German, Australian, American, English, Scottish, Danish, Israeli, and Palestinian. We are of all ages and backgrounds. We have years of experience volunteering in Gaza and the West Bank at the invitation of Palestinians. But now, because of the increasing stranglehold of Israel's illegal occupation of Palestine, many of us find it almost impossible to enter Gaza, and an increasing number have been refused entry to Israel and the West Bank as well.
We want to break the siege of Gaza. We want to raise international awareness about the prison-like closure of the Gaza Strip and pressure the international community to review its sanctions policy and end its support for continued Israeli occupation. We want to uphold Palestine's right to welcome internationals as visitors, human rights observers, humanitarian aid workers, journalists, or otherwise.
We have not and will not ask for Israel’s permission. It is our intent to overcome this brutal siege through civil resistance and non-violent direct action, and establish a permanent sea lane between Gaza and the rest of the world.
Points of Unity
All participants in the Free Gaza Movement accept the following principles and practices:
1. We respect the human rights of everyone, regardless of race, tribe, religion, ethnicity, nationality, citizenship or language.
2. The lawful inhabitants of all territories occupied by Israel since June 5, 1967 must have unimpeded access to international waters and air space, in conformity with all UN resolutions and international law.
3. The lawful inhabitants of all territories occupied by Israel since June 5, 1967 have the right to control all entry and exit to and from those territories without Israeli interference.
4. Israel must withdraw its military presence from all territories occupied since June 5, 1967 and revoke all legislation, regulations, directives and practices that apply differently to different populations living in those territories.
5. Israel must demolish all barriers built to restrict passage in all territories occupied by Israel since June 5, 1967.
6. We recognize the right of all Palestinian refugees and exiles and their heirs to return to their homes in Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories; to recover their properties, and to receive compensation for damage, dispossession and unlawful use of such property. This is an individual and not a collective right, and cannot be negotiated except by the individual.
7. We stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people, but support no particular political party or organization, without exception.
8. We agree to adhere to the principles of nonviolence and nonviolent resistance in word and deed at all times.

Rally/March In Solidarity with the Free Gaza Movement Saturday, June 5, 11 a.m.
Civic Center, San francisco
(Polk and Grove Streets)
On June 4 and 5, demonstrations will take place across the country and around the world to protest the murderous attack by the Israeli army on six boats carrying humanitarian aid to Gaza. At least nine volunteer aid workers were killed and many more seriously wounded.
Israel has maintained a blockade on Gaza—an impoverished area home to 1.6 million Palestinians—for more than three years. The attack on the Gaza Freedom Flotilla was an act of piracy and a war crime carried out in international waters. Attempting to turn reality upside-down, the Israeli military is now posing as the “victims” in this incident. Israel is only able to carry out massacres like this and the on-going oppression of the Palestinian people due to the huge military, economic and diplomatic support it receives from the U.S. government.
June 5 will mark the 43rd anniversary of the 1967 war, when Israel conquered the West Bank and Gaza along with Syria’s Golan Heights, all areas that Israel continues to occupy to this day.
Now is the time to make your voice heard! Join us to say:
End the Blockade of Gaza NOW!
Justice for the Victims of the Gaza Freedom Flotilla!
Prosecute Israel for War Crimes! Cut All U.S. Aid to Israel!
End Colonial Occupation—Self-Determination for the Palestinian People!The June 5 protest in San Francisco is sponsored by many organizations, including:
Al Awda-Palestine Right to Return Coalition, ANSWER Coalition—Act Now to Stop War & End Racism, Palestine Youth Network, American Muslims for Palestine, U.S. Palestinian Community Network, International Solidarity Movement, Arab Resource & Organizing Center, Arab Youth Organization, Muslim Student Association, Students for Justice in Palestine, General Union of Palestinian Students, International Jewish Anti-Zionist Network, Youth and Student ANSWER, Middle East Children’s Alliance, NAYI, Jewish Voice for Peace, Bay Area Committee to End Israeli Apartheid, Arab Community and Cultural Center (partial list)The Northern California 9/11 truth Alliance endorses and supports this rally/march and will have a booth at the Civic Center.

Richmond Branch of the San Francisco Public Library
351 9th Avenue @ Clement (event on 10th Ave. entrance), San FranciscoSpeaking for the San Francisco Tesla Society. Richard Gage, AIA, is a San Francisco Bay Area architect and a member of the American Institute of Architects. He is the founding member of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth. He has been a practicing architect for over 20 years and has worked on most types of building construction, including numerous fire-proofed steel-framed buildings. Most recently he worked on the construction documents for a $400M mixed-use urban project with 1.2 million square feet of retail, parking structure, and 320,000 square feet of mid-rise office space—altogether with about 1,200 tons of steel framing.
Mr. Gage became interested in researching the destruction of the WTC high-rises after hearing the startling conclusions of a reluctant 9/11 researcher, David Ray Griffin, on the radio in 2006, which launched his own unyielding quest for the truth about 9/11.

Netanyahu in U.S.— Protest in the Streets!—San Francisco Tuesday, July 6, 4:30–6:30 p.m.
Israeli Consulate
456 Montgomery StBring down the blockade of Gaza and Israel’s apartheid wall!
Free Palestine—End colonial occupation!
Justice for the victims of Israel’s attack on the Gaza Freedom Flotilla!
End U.S. aid to Israel—Boycott Israeli ships and goods!
On July 6, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu will be in Washington meeting with President Obama. The meeting was originally scheduled for June 1, the day after Israel’s act of piracy and murder against the Gaza Freedom Flotilla that left at least nine people dead and dozens wounded. Every day, Palestinians continue to be killed, wounded and imprisoned by the occupation forces.The 24-hour shutdown of the SSA terminal at the Port of Oakland where an Israeli Zim lines ship docked on June 20 was a historic victory. More than 1,000 people joined the morning and afternoon mass picket lines, which were honored by members of the International Longshore and Warehouse Union, Local 10. June 20 was the first time ever that an Israeli ship was boycotted in a U.S. port. Norwegian, Swedish and South African dock workers have called protests refusing to handle Israeli cargo.
The worldwide BDS (Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions) movement against Israeli apartheid is rapidly gaining momentum. Just last week, the largest British public workers union, UNISON, which has more than 1.4 million members, passed a motion at its national conference reading, in part:
“Conference reaffirms the support for an economic, cultural and sporting boycott of Israel and call on Unison to join the scores of unions around the world who have endorsed the Palestinian call for boycott, divestment and sanctions against Israel. Further to that as an immediate sanction for the illegal attack on the flotilla, we call on the government to expel the Israeli ambassador.”Demonstrations are planned in Washington, D.C., San Francisco and other cities on July 6.

Community Currency Radio Show - Declaration of Accountability Thursday, August 5, 2010, 2-3 pm
Progressive Radio NetworkNorthern California 9/11 Truth Alliance sponsored a retreat following the Understanding Deep Politics Conference. From the retreat, a Declaration for Accountability emerged. Charlotte Dennett, Kristina Borjesson and Barrrie Zwicker were primary architects of the document which emerged from a deeper discussion into the themes of the conference- Who are we? What are the problems? What are the the solutions? What can we do together that we cannot do alone? Drawing upon the group's wisdom, they were inspired to write a declaration, and a call to action to cast light upon deep forces, despotically trying to control humanity, and to inspire, awaken and empower a broad coalition to work together to regain control over our lives and our future.
Kristina Borjesson, an investigative reporter and independent producer for more than twenty years, Kristina has worked at a variety of top media agencies including CBS network, where she won an Emmy and a Murrow Award for her investigative reporting on "CBS Reports: Legacy of Shame" with Dan Rather and Randall Pinkston. She she has worked for CBS, CNN, and PBS covering a rich variety of topics including the TWA flight 800 disaster, Haiti, Fidel Castro, and crocodiles. Kristina compiled and edited the landmark book Into the Buzzsaw: Leading Journalists Expose the Myth of a Free Press — a collaborative effort of 20 award-winning journalists. Each of these brave journalists suffered from concerted corporate and/or government efforts to kill their highly revealing stories and their careers. She also wrote Feet to the Fire: The Media After 9/11, Top Journalists Speak Out, in 2005, a damning look at the current state of journalism.
Charlotte Dennett, author of The People v. Bush: One Lawyer's Campaign to Bring the President to Justice and the Nationwide Grassroots Movement She's Encountered Along the Way, and co-authored with her husband Gerald Colby - Thy Will be Done: The Conquest of the Amazon: Nelson Rockefeller and Evangelism in the Age of Oil. She has been practicing law since 1997, with an emphasis on personal injury litigation and suing the government under the Freedom of Information Act. She's also been a reporter in the Middle East. She was inspired by a conference convened at the Massachusetts School of Law in September 2008 which drew together lawyers and activists to shift their focus "From Impeachment to Prosecution" which evolved into The Robert Jackson Steering Committee, and works to bring about the criminal prosecution of top government officials in the United States whom there is probable cause to believe have committed war crimes. The committee was named in honor of the sentiments of universal accountability to the rule of law articulated by former U.S. Supreme Court Justice Robert Jackson at Nuremberg. She also ran for Attorney General of Vermont in 2008 with the support of Vincent Bugliosi, the legendary criminal prosecutor and bestselling author of The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder. Her website is chardennett.org, her book's website is peoplevbush.com.

On The Money- Design Tools for Creating Community Currencies
A Vision Quest to the Heart of Local Money14th to 18th August, 2010, The Park, Findhorn, Moray, Scotland
Our money system is in crisis. We can try to reform a broken system or we can design new ones to support the transition to a sustainable and resilient society. Local money gives us a proven tool to deal with the effects of financial crises, community breakdown, climate change and peak oil. It supports communities to use their own assets to solve local problems, meet local needs and achieve local goals: everything from community gardens to renewable energy and local economic regeneration.
This course is about how to design more resilient community currency systems that will stand the test of time. Together we’ll discover the wealth that lies at the heart of our communities and learn how to mobilise that wealth for the benefit of all.
Come and learn the essential design skills to create local money systems that last, in the company of eminent international designers who have done it.

1414 Harbour Way South, Suite 1010
RichmondDr. Robert Bowman: "Imagining having America serving again the American people"
Potluck dinner and a presentation by President Carter's director of Star Wars, one of our most decorated soldiers and most honored peace activists. Lt. Col. Bowman is coming out of retirement to outline a strategy for Americans to regain America.Dr. Bob Bowman, Lt. Col., USAF, ret. (101 Combat Missions as Fighter Pilot in Vietnam) is considered one of the country's foremost authorities on national security and yet most of his suggestions are at odds with our present policies. Dr. Bowman embodies the belief that peace is appreciated the most by our veteran soldiers.
This presentation by Dr. Bowman is part of his 2010 National Tour providing "A Populist Vision for America." And the reasons why we need a government that:
(1) Follows the Constitution; (2) Honors the Truth; and (3) Serves the People.
Think what a difference that would make! No more imperial presidency. No nuclear attack on Iran. No more undeclared corporate wars of aggression. No more spying on the American people. No more jailing of dissidents. No more corporations importing and exploiting millions of illegal immigrants to drive down wages. No more exporting of jobs. No more NAFTA. No more North American Union. No more government lies, false-flag attacks, and cover-ups. No more corporate welfare. No more health plans written by insurance companies and pharmaceutical manufacturers. No more energy policies written by Exxon and Enron. No more trillions in debt. Most importantly, no more using our sons and daughters to kill Arabs for the oil companies. Let's imagine what it would be like having America serving again the American people!

The Collapse of The World Trade Center on 9/11 with Kathy McGrade - What the Government and the Media are Not Telling You
A presentation by Kathy McGrade, B.S. Materials Engineer
This talk will detail the series of official explanations for the World Trade Center collapses that the media and government agencies have presented to the public since 9/11/2001. It will show how these self-contradicting theories evolved, and how they have hidden from the American people the true nature of the three worst structural failures in history.
Amongst the topics discussed, in non-technical terms, will be the "pancake"¯ theory, as well as the various explanations involving damage from the airplanes and from the fires, for both the Twin Towers and Building 7. The talk will review how these explanations were popularized by the media, such as PBS's Nova program and Popular Mechanics magazine. By using the exact words of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), we'll see how these theories do not match observations. Q & A to follow.

12th Annual Power to the Peaceful Festival
9th Annual 9/11 Truth Rally/March from the Panhandle through Golden Gate Park to the 12th Annual Power to the Peaceful Festival
Saturday, September 11, 2010Speedway Meadows
Golden Gate Park
Following the attacks of September 11th, the first "9/11 Truth Rally and March" took place in 2002, the Panhandle, marching up Haight Street and through Golden Gate Park to the Power to the Peaceful Festival. Every year since then, we have gathered in the Panhandle and paraded/marched to the Festival.-
Our rally begins at 10:00 am @ the Panhandle (between Oak and Fell at Ashbury)
11:00 am we begin our march up Ashbury to Haight, through Golden Gate Park to Speedway Meadows and to the Festival which lasts until 5:00 pm.John Fitzgerald, a serious campaigner for 9/11 Truth will be one of our featured speakers. Local activist, song writer, Vic Sadot will perform some of his songs at the rally, and during our march. David Chandler, physics teacher, video producer, compelling critic of the official 9/11 report, and Janet Kobren, local activist, a Gaza Freedom Flotilla Survivor, and Zachary Running Wolf, local native elder, encouraging a driving boycott will also speak.
Satyagraha - Truth Force was born when people gathered together, in their struggle against empire and racism in South Africa. On September 11, 1906, at a public meeting attended by 3000 people where Gandhi spoke, Sheth haji Habib, an old Muslim resident of South Africa, was inspired to consciously speak out and state his decision to act in defiance of an unjust law, that targeted the Indian population of South Africa. Habib declared his willingness to suffer the consequences in a spiritually-endowed fight for justice in the name of God. The theory of satyagraha sees means and ends as inseparable. The means used to obtain an end are wrapped up in and attached to that end. Therefore, it is contradictory to try to use unjust means to obtain justice or to try to use violence to obtain peace. Satyagraha is a synthesis of the Sanskrit words satya (meaning "truth") and Agraha ("pursuit of"). Gandhi believed that life itself is a the pursuit of truth. For Gandhi, satyagraha became strength in practicing non-violent methods, or in his words "the Force which is born of Truth and Love or non-violence." Martin Luther King Jr. defined it as "Love in Action."
To endorse, speak, volunteer- Contact Carol Brouillet @ 650-857-0927. Satyagraha was born out of a meeting which took place on September 11, 1906. The spirit of satyagraha, truth force, non-violent resistance, has never been more needed than in today's world and will be the theme of this year's march. We welcome all who are for 9/11 Truth, Peace, an End to War, Repeal of the Patriot Act, Military Commissions Act. Bring banners, signs, costumes, musical instruments, your humor, energy, messages. The Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance will have a booth at the Concert and pass out literature to the thousands who support peace.

9/11 Truth California Initiative As concerned citizens, we are joining together to raise funds to file an initiative in California to enact a "9/11 Truth Commission law." Once passed, this new commission untainted by politics and with subpoena powers to investigate 9/11 and its aftermath, the Afghan and Iraqi wars and the global War on Terror generally. Once the initiative process is under way in California, identical initiative measures will be filed in other initiative-enabled states such as Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Maine, Massachusetts, Ohio Oregon, Vermont, Washington, and others. These numerous filings will make the need for a new investigation of 9/11 a political issue in the presidential and congressional elections of November 2012.
Millions of people are aware of the problems with what we've been told happened on 9/11. To take just one thing, the freefall collapse of World Trade Center Building 7 looked exactly like a controlled demolition with explosives, and 1300 architects and engineers are calling for a new investigation, with subpoena power. I'm with a group that wants to implement this new investigation through a voter initiative. Could I count on your support? (hand the person a card) -- 24 seconds.
The collapse of World Trade Center Building 7 on the afternoon of 9/11, an event that baffled engineers, now appears to be the most obvious of many smoking guns. Architects and engineers, scientists, military officers, and actors and artists have organized themselves, along with the Building What? Campaign, to seek the truth. Neither the Obama administration nor the US Congress has responded to repeated requests for a new investigation of 9/11. Mainstream media avoids the issue, taking its cue from government officialdom. Those contributing to ad hoc investigations, bringing forth new facts, are characterized as conspiracy nuts.
In order to evade the conspiracy characterization, our rhetoric will only focus on the need for a new investigation, devoid of the politics associated with earlier efforts. This strategy will be reinforced by the selection of distinguish persons to serve as commission members who will be identified in initiative filing documents ; some commissioners may be foreigners. Commission candidates will be recruited from the global 9/11 Truth Movement. The commissioners will appoint the all-important director of the commission.
In summary, a 9/11 Initiative campaign will:
Focus attention of the Global 9/11 Truth Movement on an actionable goal
Necessitate the raising of substantial funds to finance the initiative campaign
Have a website to facilitate citizen participation, fundraising, and financial transparency
Seek out and vet distinguished, qualified persons, to serve on the commission
File identical initiative measures in several states to make the 9/11 Initiative a national issue
Circumvent the government and the media by going directly to the people
Result in a commission with subpoena powers and the necessary public funding
Create an official body untainted by political interests able to pursue the facts surrounding 9/11 regardless of where they lead
We need your help.Please join us this Thursday, when Mike Gravel comes to our regular meeting to make this idea a reality!!!! If you have ideas of who should meet and hear him- please bring them to the meeting, he will be in the San Francisco Bay Area and we should try to organize more events for him, although we have little lead time.
The Fireside room is part of the Berkeley Fellowship of Unitarian Universalist complex that has held many outstanding social justice forums at Cedar and Bonita, located past the courtyard behind the main hall, up the stairs.
There are many buses (the 15 runs on MLKJr.) and on Shattuck. Get off near Cedar (Bonita runs parallel to Shattuck and MLKJr.) It is between the North Berkeley and Downtown Berkeley BART Stations- about a 12 to 15 minute flat easy walk from those stations.

499 Pierce Street (near the corner of Pierce and Jefferson)Former Senator Mike Gravel, 2008 presidential candidate and chairman of the nonprofit Democracy Foundation, will speak in Monterey on "Truth and Justice Through the California State Ballot Initiative Process"
On Sept. 9th, Senator Gravel moderated Architect & Engineers for 9/11 Truth's press conference and mock debate at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C. (links below). Since that historic event, he has committed himself to whatever it takes to get a ballot initiative on the Nov. 2012 California State ballot calling for a new, truly independent investigation of the events leading up to, and on the day of, Sept. 11th, 2001. This talk is part of Senator Gravel's inaugural tour of California cities announcing the new 9/11 Truth California Initiative and organizing support for the effort. Once the Initiative process is successfully under way in California, identical initiative measures will be filed in other initiative-enabled states such as Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Maine, Massachusetts, Ohio, Oregon, Vermont, Washington, making it a nation-wide movement.
Don't miss this important and exciting opportunity to get in on the ground floor of History !! A Democracy Foundation event, co-sponsored by Monterey 9/11 Truth.
