9-11/Censorship

9-11/Censorship  (censorship)
A range of tactics have been employed to try to stifle dissent about 9/11, from ad hominem attacks to assassination. As of 2016, censorship is ongoing.

9-11 is been actively censored, particularly in the commercially-controlled media, where it has been a third rail topic. In the first few years after the attack, there was minimal internet censorship about the event, but as it evolved into the mass communication medium, censorship of 9-11 related content was stepped up. In January 2019, YouTube announced policy of shadow banning "content that could misinform users in harmful ways — such as videos... making blatantly false claims about historic events like 9/11".

Corporate Media

In US, 9-11 has been a demonstration of just how controlled the commercially-controlled media really are. The large institutions have united in repeating a simple script linking Osama Bin Laden to the 9-11 attacks, often repeating video of planes hitting the WTC towers with an image of Bin Laden in the corner. The mass media has remained unaffected by the gradual realisation of the awful truth has perpetrated the public consciousness since the say of the attacks.

A 2008 an observer in Canada commented that even though 39% of Canadians either reject or doubt the official explanation for the 9/11 attacks, "most papers are too afraid to talk about the conspiracy theories".

In 2015 the UK establishment harshly criticised Stephen Sizer, a vicar who linked to this Wikispooks page which casts doubt on the US government's official narrative.

WTC7

The more surprising (although apparently non unexpected) collapse of WTC7 was not reported on after the day for several years, after which time it was made the subject of a couple of hit pieces. The BBC at one point claimed that they had "lost" their tapes of the event.

Psychiatric profession

In 2006 Clare Swinney brought a complaint to the New Zealand Broadcasting Standards Authority in connection to TVNZ's unsubstantiated claim that Osama bin Laden was behind the 9/11 attacks. Shortly afterwards, she was threatened, incarcerated in a psychiatric ward and subjected to compulsory "treatment". The head psychiatrist told a judge that she should remain in hospital as her belief that 9/11 was an inside job was evidence she was "delusional". The judge concurred. The NZ establishment apologised to her in 2008.

Premature Deaths

Full article: 9-11/Premature death

Many key witnesses to 9/11 have been reported dead in unexplained circumstances (see for example, Barry Jennings). Others have supposedly committed suicide or died as a result of freak accidents. Mark Gorton wrote in 2015 that he believes that hit squads are still active in an effort to prevent the truth from coming out, although the rate of associated premature deaths seems to be in decline since the day itself.

Internet Censorship

Reports indicate that the efforts are being made to try to lessen the visibility of 9/11 dissent from the internet. If true, this would provide valuable information about the identity of the perpetrators.

 

An example

Page name	Description
9-11/WTC7/Destruction/Censorship	A very telling omission by the corporate media, lasting for several years, that totally suppressed mention of the complete (forewarned) collapse of WTC7. Note that the 911 originally neglected to give an account of this unprecedented event.

Project Censored	“We’ve never had an op-ed piece that we were contracted to do rejected, outright rejected, and it wasn’t just rejected because of some contractual issue or violation. We were actually told specifically from people at IPS that it was because we mentioned 9/11 as part of a piece on state crimes against democracy. What we’re suggesting is that the events of September 11th have all the trappings of a potential state crime against democracy. So we mentioned the scientific studies done by Stephen Jones and the open chemical physics journal, and we included Richard Gage and the Architects and Engineers group, 1200 experts now saying that the official science just doesn’t make sense and just doesn’t add up, I mean it defies everything we know about scientific methodology and so forth. They literally told us that they were not going to publish anything that talked about 9/11.”	Mickey Huff	2 October 2010
