Northwoods Proverb - Anyone who isn't a conspiracy theorist these days has no idea what is going on in the world.
Trump ally Mel Gibson calls for ‘truth’ about 9/11
Hollywood star Mel Gibson, a vocal supporter of US President Donald Trump, has urged the American government to reveal the “truth” about the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
The Australian-born actor shared a clip from journalist Tucker Carlson’s interview with former Congressman Curt Weldon, which was published on Monday. The tragedy that took place nearly 25 years ago “might be the biggest scandal in American history,” Gibson wrote on X on Tuesday.
On September 11, 2001, Al-Qaeda terrorists hijacked four passenger airliners and crashed two of them into the twin World Trade Center skyscrapers in Manhattan. A third plane struck the Pentagon building, and a fourth crashed into a field in Pennsylvania. Nearly 3,000 people were killed.
“Three buildings collapsed as if they were programmed to do so. Not two – three. To this day, no one has explained how Building 7 fell, even though no plane hit it,” Gibson wrote. He went on to argue that “towers were designed to withstand airplane impacts.”
“What really happened that day? And why is no one allowed to talk about it? Enough with the fear. It’s time for the truth. About 9/11. About history. About all of us,” Gibson added in his post.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, Building 7 collapsed because of fires ignited by debris from one of the towers hit by a plane.
In his interview, Weldon dismissed the label of conspiracy theorist, implying that the CIA and the government are skilled at cover-ups. “You know, what gets me is reporters who call people conspiracy theorists. Well, that’s all the agency does! They’re the ones who create the conspiracies,” the former politician argued. “They have whole courses for their agents on how to make people look like they’re conspiracy theorists.”
Weldon urged Trump to appoint “people of impeccable integrity” to a commission that would “study the facts” around 9/11.
For years, some have speculated that the official version of events may not have been entirely true, and even claimed that the attack was an inside job. Authors and activists have tried to poke holes in the 2004 report by the 9/11 Commission set up by the US Congress.
The 9/11 Commission concluded that “none of the measures adopted by the US government from 1998 to 2001 disturbed or even delayed the progress of the Al-Qaeda plot.”
