Procedural issues

Torture as source of false evidence

The main witness Khalid Sheikh Mohammed cited by the Report was tortured in a secret CIA facility in Szymany, Poland, by sleep deprivation, inflicting pain and waterboarding at least 183 times in one month.[1][2]

Swiss historian Daniele Ganser concludes: "I then took a closer look at the Report: how did they prove who did it? Actually, they didn't prove anything. There are a lot of footnotes referring to secret services. The secret services in turn refer to Khalid Sheikh Mohammed - who was tortured. [...] It's unbelievable: our official narrative is based on a document which a) mentions only two out of three buildings and b) uses torture.[...] That's garbage!" [3]

Flaws

Omissions

The commission's original report failed to even mention WTC7. When asked whether this omission was deliberate, and if so, why, the chairman said he "couldn't remember". The commission wrote that "the U.S. government has not been able to determine the origin of the money used for the 9/11 attacks. Ultimately the question is of little practical significance."[4] [Citation Needed]

Errors

The commission's final reported stated that there were no witnesses to explosions in WTC7, directly contradicting the testimony of Barry Jennings, who had (reportedly) died in highly suspicious circumstances just 2 days earlier.

Reception

"A joke"

Ray McGovern, 27-year CIA veteran who chaired National Intelligence Estimates and personally delivered intelligence briefings to Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush, their Vice Presidents, Secretaries of State, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and other senior government officials, said "I think at simplest terms, there’s a cover-up. The 9/11 Report is a joke."

Methodical Illusion“Rebekah Roth's Methodical Illusion is both an entertaining page-turner and an important historical document. Like Philip Zelikow's 9/11 Commission Report, Roth's book is a work of fiction. But unlike Zelikow's novel, Methodical Illusion reveals rather than conceals the truth about 9/11.”Kevin Barrett
