Facebook: Reinstate Miko Peled's Facebook profile


Why this is important

Two weeks ago Facebook shut down the personal account of Miko Peled, an Israeli, and an outspoken advocate for Palestinian human rights. Facebook is claiming his ID cannot be verified, and has accused him of trolling, neither of which are true. Peled is a popular public figure who's identity is not in question, and his efforts to resolve this issue with Facebook have gone no where. He believes Facebook has targeted him for his political views, and they have shutdown his account to deliberately censor his voice. Peled is a man of courage and integrity, and we are petitioning Facebook on his behalf to immediately reinstate his original Facebook profile.

Is there anyone that can't see that President Bush's excuse for attacking Iraq is a lie?

Dear Judge Silberman,

President Bush repeatedly claimed that Saddam didn't allow the inspectors in. Is there anyone that can't see that President Bush's excuse for attacking Iraq is a lie? Clearly a provable lie since the fact is that Saddam DID allow the inspectors in.
And claiming that the excuse for the war was faulty intel doesn't hold water because the intel was checked and debunked BEFORE the war as a "report commissioned by the president" revealed: "By the time President Bush ordered U.S. troops to disarm Saddam Hussein of the deadly weapons he was allegedly trying to build, every piece of fresh evidence had been tested -- and disproved -- by U.N. inspectors, according to a report commissioned by the president" - Panel: U.S. Ignored Work of U.N. Arms Inspectors by Dafna Linzer Washington Post Staff Writer Sunday, April 3, 2005; Page A06

Sincerely,
Tom Murphy

"After the initial piece aired on NBC in 2003, Mr. Summerlin and his crew went looking for reporters on their base in Kuwait to tell them about the inaccuracies in Mr. Williams’s reporting. Instead, they wound up leaving notes in several news vans encouraging them to get in touch. Years later, they were still frustrated by Mr. Williams’s recounting."

1996 Massacre That Motivated Bin Laden and Al Qaeda to Attack U.S. on 9/11

Report: Top Israeli Politician Naftali Bennett Played Key Role in 1996 Massacre That Motivated Bin Laden and Al Qaeda to Attack U.S. on 9/11

 Note this part as well: "Bin Laden cited Qana at least four more times: in a July, 1996 interview with Robert Fisk; a November, 1996 interview with a London newspaper; a 1999 interview with al Jazeera; and an October, 2001 online interview. He specifically said his goal was to make Americans "taste what we tasted."

 In addition, Mohammed Atta signed a will at the beginning of Operation Grapes of Wrath. In Lawrence Wright's book The Looming Tower, he writes that "According to one of his friends, Atta was enraged, and by filling out his last testament during the attack he was offering his life in response.""

FAIR quotes Ayman Mohyeldin about cycle of violence

"But even before the kidnapping of three Israeli-Jewish teenagers and killing of the Palestinian teenager last week, two Palestinians were killed back in May and didn't trigger the kind of international outcry and international outrage that the killing of the three Israeli teens have. And that is always the difficult point when you're looking at the starting of a cycle of violence in this part of the Middle East. It's about which is the act, or which act is the one that triggered or exacerbated the latest round of tensions?"

Grand Jury Evidence in Michael Brown Shooting Case

Are these activists ever going to get around to reading the Documents Released in the Ferguson Case This link is to the New York Times site where it says "Here are documents and evidence presented to the grand jury in Clayton, Mo., that was deciding whether to indict Officer Darren Wilson in the August shooting of Michael Brown. The documents were released by the St. Louis County prosecutor, Robert P. McCulloch." LINK NOV. 25, 2014
  •  Grand Jury Transcripts
  •  Interviews of Witnesses by Law Enforcement Officials
  •  Forensic and Other Reports
  •  Photographs
And here is a link to CNN for  Documents from the Ferguson grand jury
Where they explain " A grand jury decided not to indict Ferguson police Officer Darren Wilson in the shooting death of Michael Brown. Scores of documents, including testimony from the proceedings as well as reports and interview transcripts considered as evidence, were released by St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Robert McCulloch. Read the documents below. The documents are also searchable, using the search bar at the top right of each document."

Here is a direct link to Wilson's testimony Contributed by: Chris McDaniel, KWMU

Here is a link to AP's page where they say "The Associated Press has obtained a copy of the testimony and evidence presented to the grand jury that declined to indict Ferguson Officer Darren Wilson in the fatal shooting of Michael Brown. Clicking a document link will open a new window."

 Here is a link to St. Louis Post‑Dispatch's The testimony the grand jury heard in the Michael Brown case But make sure not to overlook the other evidence included in other links such as the NYT with photos and forensic reports

SEVERAL witnesses admitted they lied about Michael Brown shooting


"... grand jurors and investigators challenged witnesses, asking skeptical questions of those who said the shooting was unjustified. On the stand, several said they’d lied when interviewed by investigators."

"The witness backtracked, saying the comments to the FBI were based on “assumption” and “common sense.” One woman admitted she lied to FBI agents on Sept. 30 when she claimed to have been a witness, saying she repeated what her boyfriend claimed took place. … She said she testified after the Justice Department granted her immunity and promised not to prosecute her for giving false statements." http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-11-26/bloody-gun-wavering-witnesses-spur-grand-jury-decision.html

Witness 10 of Michael Brown Shooting

Witness 10: … I seen the two young guys walkin' down the street on the same sidewalk that I was on and …

Detective:  Can I - can I clarify just a couple things? Roughly, what time was this?

Witness 10: Roughly I wanna say 8:40, I mean not 8:40, 11:40-1 :40 is when that - when I first seen these two guys. And, my initial thought was, "wow, that's a big dude." Because Mr. Brown, Mike Brown, my initial thought was he's a big guy. He's tall and like stocky build and that's it. He - he, they both walked passed me.

I took my tools, went into _____ I came back outside _____ to get some more stuff and I looked down the street and I seen the police car at a slant and I seen Mr. Brown in the window of the police car looked ... it appeared as they were wrestling through the window and one gunshot had let off. And, Mr. Brown took off running and my first thought was like "oh my gosh" did I actually just witness a police officer being murdered because it took a while for the police officer to get out of the car and pursue the - the suspect. And, I wanna say maybe six seconds, but it seemed like it was forever after the - the - the first gunshot. 

So, the police officer exited the vehicle with his weapon drawn pursuing Mr. Brown. Mr. Brown was quite a distance and he stopped and when he stopped, he didn't get down on the ground or anything. He turned around and he did some type of movement. I never seen him put his hands up or anything. I can't recall the movement that he did. I'm not sure if he pulled his pants up or - or whatever he did but I seen some type of movement and he started charging towards the police officer. 

The police officer then returned fire, well, not returned fire, open fire on Mr. Brown. Um, if I had to guess the shots and the - the distance between him and, a, Mr. Brown, it would have to be five to ten yards and the shots that were fired was four, five to six shots fired and Mr. Brown was still standing up. Um, and my thoughts was while he's missing this guy this close, is he - is he hitting him or because Mr. Brown there was no reaction from him to show that he was been hit. Um, after that, Mr. Brown then paused. He - he - he stopped running and when he stopped running the police officer stopped firing. And, then Mr. Brown continued, started again to charge towards him and after that the police officer returned fire and um well not returned, I'm using wrong ... a started to fire once more at him. Um, if I had to guess the rounds that were fired then it would be four to five more shots and after that Mr. Brown collapsed and fell to the ground.


Detective: Okay. What happened then?

Witness 10: Um, what happened then after that um I didn't see, it was a-a blue Monte Carlo, a-a newer model Monte Carlo, two-door and um, it was closer to the scene where the shooting was at, that occurred. They then drove off and made a-a left into the apartments and drove around the apartment and then came and stopped and um Mr. Brown's friend that he was walking with earlier, I didn't see him the whole time that um this was all going on with, a, confrontation with the police and the shooting and everything. 

At the end, after Mr. Brown had dropped and um, I seen the, his friend come out of - of nowhere and run across the street and a, said that, "Dog, they just-they just killed him. They just killed him" and he ran um, the back fields of Canfield. . . the back open field. And um, I must say that also after the, um confrontation after the gunshot when Mr. Brown did run, I thought I heard a, something' metal hit the ground and I'm not sure what it was but I thought I heard something' hit the ground.

And um, after that I believe, I'm not sure um, if I went in to go tell the people that I was working with that I just. . .what I witnessed and I came back out and they were taping the scene off and I decided I went down there closer to where the body was and I stayed down there for maybe ten. . . five to ten minutes and I was speakin' _____  down there on the scene. And, I was tellin' _____ what happened and after me tellin' _____ what happened and I'm hearin' eveybody their side of the story, saying, "Oh, the police officer shot that kid for no reason. He had his hands up" and me knowing and seeing what actually took place, that wasn't true and a, there was different sides to the story and every side wasn't true so I felt uncomfortable in that situation so I decided to - to walk back to the um to _____ that I was at, originally at. And, um, while I was walkin'

Michael Brown's DNA found on Officer Wilson's gun!

DNA report found Brown’s genetic material on Officer Wilson’s pistol! Also found on the officer’s uniform pants & shirt.

"A crime scene investigator described swabbing Wilson’s gun with a Q-tip; the subsequent D.N.A. report found Mr. Brown’s genetic material on Officer Wilson’s Sig Sauer pistol. Similarly, D.N.A. from Mr. Brown was also found on the officer’s uniform pants and shirt. In his own testimony, Officer Wilson told jurors that Mr. Brown had grabbed the gun while the two scuffled at the car."  -NYT Nov. 25, 2014

Michael Brown Shooting physical evidence Grand Jury saw

Here is an example of evidence that supports the fact that Michael Brown was moving toward the officer:
GRAND JUROR: "So as far as physical evidence, we have the blood on the ground that was about 21 or 22 feet from where Michael Brown ended up." p 4741 of grand-jury-testimony.pdf source:

The documents were released by the St. Louis County prosecutor, Robert P. McCulloch. — THE NEW YORK TIMES"

 "Farther away from the car, the investigator showed with photographs, were two blood-spatter patterns – evidence showing that Mr. Brown was moving toward the officer, and the car, when he was killed in the second flurry of shots." - NYT: Documents Released in the Ferguson Case

Forced Circumcision on Four Year Old Boy?! He DOESN'T want the surgery!

Another Example of Lack of Empathy for Children & People in General

See How Key Parts of the Protest were Suppressed: NBC Suppresses Protest Against Drones Killing Children (playlist)

Email I sent SavingChase.org

This is the email I sent SavingChase.org :

You should quote this sentence at the top of your articles published section: "The risk of side effects following male circumcision increase by up to 20 times if the procedure is carried out after the boy turns one year old, a new study suggests." http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/boys-circumcised-after-first-birthday-have-20-times-greater-risk-side-effects-1448271

I think the strongest argument is that your son isn't an infant any longer and there can be psychological damage to him at this age if it is done now! The strongest argument is that at this point the decision should be put off until Chase turns 18 and allow HIM to decide. His emotional well being MUST be considered as he is just too old at this point to force him to undergo the unnecessary surgery. Please tell your lawyer to add that argument when you make your case.

NYT twitter account misleads public about Iraq WMD

The NYT twitter account is tweeting misleading info about Iraq and Weapons of Mass Destruction. Those were not WMD which Saddam was supposedly hiding. Those were either chemical weapons which had already been declared and put under UN seal or discarded weapons not part of any active program. I explain the situation in this video: CLICK HERE FOR VIDEOS

If you listen to what the NYT video says, the two examples of exposure were from an IMPROVISED explosive device (meaning insurgents got hold of something that had been secured by the UN but due to Bush's illegal attack on Iraq they became unsecured and insurgents took them and IMPROVISED a weapon out of it.) Or the other main case the video talks about where the US soldiers find discarded weapons and decide to blow them up and end up exposing themselves due to their own actions of exploding discarded chemical weapons. THAT is why it wasn't made a big public story, because it makes the soldiers look bad for managing to expose themselves through their own actions of digging up discarded chemical and recklessly blowing them up.


The NYT put a misleading tweet together and those promoting it are then twisting it even more when they misrepresent the situation. I now see many people retweeting the NYT's misleading tweets and also crowing about them on their blogs.

In the video info I put the following information (links in video info of video):

Bush memoir makes selective use of Iraq data By Walter Pincus Washington Post Staff Writer "Bush left out that Blix later said, "Iraq has on the whole cooperated rather well so far" with inspectors. "The most important point to make is that access has been provided to all sites we have wanted to inspect and with one exception it has been prompt."

Sunday, April 3, 2005; Page A06 "By the time President Bush ordered U.S. troops to disarm Saddam Hussein of the deadly weapons he was allegedly trying to build, every piece of fresh evidence had been tested -- and disproved -- by U.N. inspectors, according to a report commissioned by the president"

Inspectors Call U.S. Tips 'Garbage' one source has referred to the US intelligence they've been getting as "garbage after garbage after garbage." CBS News Correspondent Mark Phillips reports

A Spy Speaks Out By Daniel Schorn
"According to Tyler Drumheller, who was a former top CIA official and 26-year veteran of the agency, CIA Director George Tenet delivered the news about the Iraqi foreign minister at a high-level meeting at the White House, including the president, the vice president and Secretary of State Rice. Drumheller said, 'he told us that they had no active weapons of mass destruction program.' 'So in the fall of 2002, before going to war, we had it on good authority from a source within Saddam's inner circle that he didn't have an active program for weapons of mass destruction?' Bradley asked. 'Yes,' Drumheller replied. He says there was doubt in his mind at all. 'It directly contradicts, though, what the president and his staff were telling us," Bradley remarked."

When Shot by Cop, Myers was Wearing a Court Ordered Ankle Bracelet



Incident: Officer-Involved Shooting
Location: 4100 block of Shaw
Date/Time: 10/8/14 @ 19:28
Victim: 32-year old white male (St. Louis Police Officer with 6 years of service)
Suspect: Vonderrit D. Myers, Jr., 18-year old black male of the 4200 block of Castleman

The officer was working secondary for a private security company patrolling the Shaw neighborhood. As the officer drove past three males, one of the males began to run, but then stopped. The officer then did a u-turn, and observed the males run from the area. The officer followed the males’ path, through several streets, at one point exiting his vehicle, when he followed one of the males through a gangway. The officer observed the male running and holding his waistband, causing the officer to believe the suspect had a gun. The suspect then began to approach the officer in an aggressive manner. The officer gave the suspect verbal commands, instructing him to surrender. The suspect continued to move toward the officer. The suspect and the officer then got into a physical altercation, with hands on each other. During the altercation, the suspect’s hooded sweatshirt came off of him. The suspect then ran from the officer, up a hill in the 4100 block of Shaw. At this time, the officer saw the suspect was armed with what he believed to be a gun. The officer wanted to be certain what the suspect had was a gun, and did not immediately fire at the suspect. The suspect then turned toward the officer, pointed the gun at the officer and fired at least three rounds. Three projectiles were recovered going toward the officer, down the hill, with ballistic evidence, a bullet in a vehicle, located behind the officer. As the suspect fired at the officer, fearing for his safety, the officer returned fire. As the officer moved toward the suspect, the suspect continued to pull the trigger. Upon recovery of the gun, investigation revealed the gun had malfunctioned and had jammed after firing at least three rounds. As the suspect continued to point the gun toward the officer and pull the trigger, the officer continued to fire shots at the suspect, fatally wounding him. The suspect was pronounced deceased on the scene. The suspect’s 9mm handgun was recovered at the scene. The gun was reported stolen on 9/26/14. Per department policy, the officer has been placed on administrative leave. To clarify, secondary employment allows officers to work security in uniform and carry their department-issued weapons. The officer, while not on duty for the Police Department, still has the same responsibilities and power to affect arrest and the officer operates in the capacity as a St. Louis Police Officer. St. Louis Police Officers work secondary for securities companies, business establishments, sporting events, etc. The Force Investigative Unit responded and is investigating. The investigation is ongoing.

Ryan, I can be reasoned with.

Ryan, I can be reasoned with. A fan of both of our work wanted us to communicate. I have tried to get you to respond to me. You need to understand that the people you relied on for your information have played the same stubborn game of refusing to even respond to specific points. Are you seriously flying all the way to LA yet you can't take a few minutes to do the bare minimum expected of civilized people and engage in civilized discourse through written word? You are helping Zionists get away with misdirecting the public from the main motive for the 9/11 attack.

The celebrating Israelis spotted in N.J. were obnoxious jerks. CELEBRATING and MOCKING the tragedy was disgustingly selfish. The witness who spotted them saw them after she got a call from a friend who called to tell her that a plane had hit the twin towers so she got her binoculars and went to her window to look for herself. It is after that that she spotted them and I guess called police.  The FBI called them the "hi-fivers" from what I have read. 

Unfortunately you relied on piss poor reporting for your info. No Israelis were “”were arrested filming the first plane hit the first tower ” nor were Israelis “also arrested in several vans with explosives” Fox News and Mike Rivero (author of the website “What really happened”) do extremely poor jobs at reporting. Sounds like you have been influenced by Mike Rivero’s “reasoning” because when someone points a camera at something to document it, it does not mean they had prior knowledge. The witness saw them after she got a call from a friend telling her to look at the twin towers because a plane had crashed. NOT before. They said “Document” instead of
“celebrate” because they don’t want to look bad. Check out this site: http://www.911myths.com/index.php/Dancing_Israelis

Instead of telling cops that they were celebrating the attacks as they took pictures of themselves with the burning towers behind them, they told the cops they were "documenting the event." (I think if they threw it in the cops faces saying, yeah, we were celebrating, they might have gotten a beating so they tried to class it up and act like they were not being disrespectful)

BEFORE the cops even pulled the van over, they were under the impression there might be explosives in the van. Bomb sniffing dog reacted as if there were  BUT when they tested for explosives, they found none. Mike Rivero uses the same article saying no explosives were found, quotes only the part saying dogs reacted as if there were, OMITTING the part saying they searched and found none.

Rivero quotes this part: “Police also told the Bergen Record that bomb sniffing dogs were brought to the van and that they reacted as if they had smelled explosives” YET OMITS the part of the article which says “The Bergen County Police bomb squad X-rayed packages found inside the van but did not find any explosives, authorities said.”

The FBI called them the "hi-fivers" from what I have read. Instead of telling cops that they were celebrating the attacks as they took pictures of themselves with the burning towers behind them, they told the cops they were "documenting the event." You see, the cops were pissed off at reports these guys were mocking our tragedy. they weren't going to say "yes we held up lighters and giving hi-fives as Americans were burning to death" so they told the cops they were "documenting the event."

 I have been trying to point out that the very two assumptions of the truthers are wrong. (make sure you look at Sherman's Neckties, link below)
The first two assumptions of the 9/11 conspiracy are false.
1. Contrary to what they assumed, fires CAN weaken steel. Eric Hufschmid thought he was being clever when he looked up the MELTING point of steel not realizing that the steel didn't have to melt for it to weaken.
2. Contrary to what they assumed, there were signs of bowing and sagging in the towers well before the collapse of the towers.

Fires HAVE caused steel framed buildings to collapse. The Kader toy factory fire is an example. The thing you need to understand is that people like Eric Hufschmid  are just ignorant and that they didn't know what they were talking about when the declared "fires can't do that." And as I showed you, firemen know what fires can do to steel framed buildings as the  Firehouse Magazine from Sept. 1998 explained. Hufschmid was just spreading ignorance as the historic example of Sherman's Neckties shows http://youtu.be/Drsgs6-3Qlg

Fires pose a collapse threat to steel framed buildings, that means that when there is a fire there is a potential collapse threat, it doesn't mean the building will ALWAYS collapse but that if COULD collapse. Consultation with a structural engineer and structural damage observed by units operating in the building led to the belief that there was a *possibility* of a pancake structural collapse of the fire damaged floors."
"Floor assemblies deflected as much as three feet in some places" so there was a potential for collapse. Fires pose a risk of collapse, we can see a few floors did collapse inside WTC FIVE for example. http://representativepress.blogspot.com/2013/10/wtc5.html

And NIST has a FAQ where they explain "These other buildings, including Philadelphia's One Meridian Plaza, a 38-story skyscraper that burned for 18 hours in 1991, did not collapse due to differences in the design of the structural system (see the answer to Question 9)." http://www.nist.gov/el/disasterstudies/wtc/faqs_wtc7.cfm
The thing is the conditions were there in the towers and WTC7 for the weakened structure, due to the fires, to result in collapse. Are you arguing that fires can't cause a steel structure to be weakened? The Kader toy factory fire resulted in a collapse. The fireman who wrote the Sept. 1998 article in Firehouse Magazine understood that fires CAN pose a "serious collapse threat": "Class 1 (fire-resistive) buildings typical of high-rise construction usually are designated as having three- or four-hour fire resistance ratings. In the past, that was taken to mean that they would never be a serious collapse threat. While this is usually the case in the completed structures, it is not a guarantee, particularly in the steel-framed high-rise that relies on some type of spray-on or membrane fireproofing to protect the steel. The 1 Meridian Plaza fire in Philadelphia proved that these can be severe dangers under the wrong set of circumstances."

And as I have shown, the weakening in the towers resulted in inward bowing of exterior load bearing columns. Eric Hufschmid thought he was being clever when he looked up the MELTING point of steel not realizing that the steel didn't have to melt for it to weaken. Hufschmid's ignorance is so wide spread that a site about the melting point of steel had to add this: "Addendum (8/26/2011): I answered this question many years ago and it has been referenced in many different web sites and reports. There has been one misrepresentation that has come from that. Many sites refer to the difference in the melting point of steel and the burning temperature of jet fuel as proof that the World Trade Center could not have fallen from the aircraft fires. What those authors fail to note is that while steel melts at around 1,370°C (2500°F) it begins to lose its strength at a much lower temperature. The steel structure of the World Trade Center would not have to melt in order for the buildings to lose their structural integrity. Steel can be soft at 538°C (1,000°F) well below the burning temperature of jet fuel." http://education.jlab.org/qa/meltingpoint_01.html

And Contrary to what they assumed, there were signs of bowing and sagging in the towers well before the collapse of the towers. The very thing that Griffin points to as a feature of a fire caused collapse we can see in photos of the World Trade Center. Griffin writes, "in fire-induced collapses---if we had any examples of such---the onset would be gradual. Horizontal beams and trusses would begin to sag; vertical columns, if subjected to strong forces, would begin to bend. But as videos of the towers show, there were no signs of bending or sagging, even on the floors just above the damage caused by the impact of the planes." But contrary to what Griffin claims, there were indeed signs of bending or sagging. Witnesses reported it and photos document it. Griffin is simply wrong.

The very same area that we can see in a photo here: https://sites.google.com/site/representativepress/east-face-of-wtc2-9-21-am
then you can see that the bowing has progressed in a photo here:
https://sites.google.com/site/representativepress/east-face-of-wtc2-9-53-am
Then you can see that very same bowed in area where it reaches the point of total failure in this video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQmaGCxHxj8
We can see the early stages of the bowing in the two pictures linked above and then we can see how _that bowed in area_ reaches the point of total failure in the video linked above.

You are calling the Fire Chief and other firemen liars: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7rj5UQvlWw&list=PL605641003DE05216
Here are the Fire Chief's words: "The biggest decision we had to make was to clear the area and create a collapse zone around the severely damaged building. A number of fire officers and companies assessed the damage to the building. The appraisals indicated that the building’s integrity was in serious doubt.” AND "The most important operational decision to be made that afternoon was the collapse (Of the WTC towers) had damaged 7 World Trade Center, which is about a 50 story building, at Vesey between West Broadway and Washington Street. It had very heavy fire on many floors and I ordered the evacuation of an area sufficient around to protect our members, so we had to give up some rescue operations that were going on at the time and back the people away far enough so that if 7 World Trade did collapse, we [wouldn't] lose any more people. We continued to operate on what we could from that distance and approximately an hour and a half after that order was [given], at 5:30 in the afternoon, World Trade Center collapsed completely" - Daniel Nigro, Chief of Department" 

“The major concern at that time at that particular location was number Seven, building number seven, which had taken a big hit from the north tower. When it fell, it ripped steel out from between the third and sixth floors across the façade on Vesey Street. We were concerned that the fires on several floors and the missing steel would result in the building collapsing. So for the next five or six hours we kept firefighters from working anywhere near that building, which included the whole north side of the World Trade Center complex. Eventually around 5:00 or a little after, building number seven came down.” - Chief Frank Fellini

“I then walked down a couple of blocks back to the site. We were north of the Winter Garden at that point. It might have been—it was Vesey Street. We walked all the way back down to Vesey Street. There was a big discussion going on at that point about pulling all of our units out of 7 World Trade Center. Chief Nigro didn’t feel it was worth taking the slightest chance of somebody else getting injured. So at that point we made a decision to take all of our units out of 7 World Trade Center because there was a potential for collapse.” 
Q. “It was on fire, correct, Captain?” 
A. “Yes, it was on fire at that time. Then they said it suffered some form of structural damage. These things were going on at the same time. The fact that we thought we found Ganci and Feehan and his place at 7 World Trade Center. Made the decision to back 
everybody away, took all the units and moved them all the way back toward North End Avenue, which is as far I guess west as you could get on Vesey Street, to keep them out of the way.” - Captain Ray Goldbach  http://www.nytimes.com/packages/html/nyregion/20050812_WTC_GRAPHIC/Goldbach_Ray.txt

“And 7 World Trade was burning up at the time. We could see it. There was concern. I had gone up to take a look at it, because I knew that the telephone company building, which is 140 West Street, was next to 7 World Trade Center, and there was a concern that if 7 World Trade Center came down, what would happen to this building? We went in there, we checked it out. There were some people in there. We made them evacuate and I went in the back to see what was happening. The fire at 7 World Trade was working its way from the front of the building northbound to the back of the building. There was no way there could be water put on it, because there was no water in the area. I went back and I reminded whoever the chief was, I don’tknow if it was Chief McKavanagh or Chief Blaich, that with 7 World Trade Center in danger of collapsing, you had to be careful, because Con Edison had big transformers in the back that supplied the lower half of Manhattan. …when I was coming back somewhere around I think it was 5:00 o’clock, 6:00 o’clock, 7 World Trade Center came down.” Firefighter Eugene Kelty http://www.checktheevidence.com/911/NYT9-11AccountsAnalysis/txt/9110261.txt

“But they weren’t letting guys too close. At this point Seven World Trade Center was going heavy, and they weren’t letting anybody get too close. Everybody was expecting that to come down. We hung out for hours…I remember later on in the day it was getting close that they were more concerned about seven coming down. We had no idea what  20was going on on the east side. We were all on our side. On the west side it was pretty clear. The wind was blowing from west to east I believe. I remember later on in the day as we were waiting for seven to come down they kept backing us up Vesey, almost a full block. They were concerned about seven coming down, and they kept changing us, establishing a collapse zone and backing us up. 
… The whole time while we were waiting—there were hours that went by. Seven came down after 5 in the afternoon.”  - Firefighter Vincent Massa 9110222 http://graphics8.nytimes.com/packages/pdf/nyregion/20050812_WTC_GRAPHIC/9110222.PDF

Bush was bombing Iraq BEFORE the Iraq War

US and British aircraft attack Iraq   February, 16 2001
 16.21 EST "US and British aircraft have carried out missile attacks on five targets near the Iraqi capital Baghdad tonight, striking command and control targets to the south of the city, the Pentagon has confirmed. Air raid sirens wailed through Baghdad and anti-aircraft weapons fired into the skies at unseen targets while residents braced themselves for missile strikes."

  ATTACK ON IRAQ: THE OVERVIEW; U.S. AND BRITISH JETS STRIKE AIR-DEFENSE CENTERS IN IRAQ By JAMES DAO with STEVEN LEE MYERS
 Published: February 17, 2001
 "Mr. Bush and his aides described the raid as routine, saying the United States and Britain were simply responding to Iraqi provocations, as they have repeatedly in the last two years. Since Mr. Bush took office on Jan. 20, American and British jets have struck targets in the southern zone three other times, most recently on Tuesday. They also attacked one in the smaller zone over northern Iraq."

US and Britain step up bombing of Iraq
By Kate Randall and Patrick Martin August 17, 2001
"US and British forces have conducted three air strikes against Iraq over the past week. On Tuesday US warplanes bombed a site near An Nasiriya in southern Iraq, about 170 miles southeast of Baghdad. The target was reportedly a radar site used to guide Iraqi missiles. Four days earlier, on Friday, August 10, US and British warplanes attacked targets in southern Iraq in the biggest assault since last February. About 20 US and British jets and 30 support aircraft carried out the strike. Earlier in the week, on August 7, US planes bombed targets in northern Iraq."
