The 911 Media Hoax - Part 2
Television's Illusions Enthrall America's Cavemen
Around 2400 years ago a philosophy student of the brilliant and kindly Socrates wrote his conception of the ideal State. Plato's form
of government fits our definition of fascism. His "Republic" shares shelf-space with Niccolo Machiavelli's "The Prince" in personal libraries of manipulators of mankind's economic and social relationships, the aspiring fascist dictators of today's nations and, perhaps, of tomorrow's world.
In his "Allegory of the Cave", Plato was able to create images. Lacking today's technology, he devised a light-source by means of a controlled fire located behind the participants. Thomas Edison's electric bulb was a couple of thousand years in the future.
Plato's subjects faced a wall of the cave upon which fire-light cast shadows. The "Allegory of the Cave" gives us a glimpse of Plato's
understanding of how easily his countrymen could be manipulated by the substitution of moving images for reality. His allegory gives us a
glimpse of why Plato espoused a benevolent fascism. Along with the light-bulb, Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World" and George Orwell's
"1984" were in the distant future. Plato would have understood television's enthralling illusions.
Edward Bernays, a double nephew of Sigmund Freud, is often referred to as founder of America's public relations industry. He could not
have harbored a more cynical view than Plato's toward his own countrymen. Bankers who pulled the strings of President Woodrow Wilson
employed Bernays to manipulate America's masses in support of the first World War. Bernays was successful without television, today's
highly efficient source of enthralling and illusory imagery.
I recall sitting in front of a small black and white television set with "rabbit-ears" antennae on its top back in the days before hand-held
pocket calculators had been invented. How many readers recall using a slide-rule when solving problems in physics class? In those days
of primitive electronics I was enthralled as I watched US astronauts go to the moon and back, not once, but seven times! Thankfully,
not one of those brave men was lost in space. Those who now express skepticism at how that could actually have been done, especially
knowing the facts of our earth's Van Allen Radiation Belt, are summarily tossed into today's "conspiracy nut" bin along with 9/11
researchers.
I don't recall when the first time was that I wondered why men, supposedly on the moon, moved so slowly in a field of gravity only
one sixth that of the earth, and why they bounced no higher than they could have jumped on their own front lawns. It was too radical,
at the time for me to realize that the video had been filmed in a studio and that the speed of the film had simply been slowed down.
Today's proofs including that of studio lighting and near-earth orbits are overwhelming and make the TV illusion totally obvious. If you
have something of an open mind, read this:
Wagging the Moondoggie.
The visual character of televised 9/11 illusions results in strong support for their validity through underlying psychological benefits, given
years of crafted and TV-implanted anti-Arab propaganda. Anyone who proposed that the NY buildings had been brought down by explosives,
regardless of the strength of evidence, generally met with an irrational and angry emotional response even from functionally intelligent persons.
Myths and narratives acquired through audio-visual means via television are powerfully imbedded. That is what makes the medium valuable to
advertisers.
One who acquires data through television keeps returning to segments of the narrative as valid working premises when attempting to research
or to analyze the fundamental validity or truth of the narrative itself. Nearly everything that is supposedly known by the public about what may
have happened on 9/11 has come from television and newspapers, sources that are highly censored and controlled. Such media may be
reliable in some matters and unreliable in others. Because there is no way to determine which case is operative at any time it is necessary to
disregard both sources of information entirely. What are we then left with?
A more scholarly form of this question becomes, "What is it that we can truly know, based upon sources acceptable to us as being reliable, of events,
background, participants, and related matters involving what is being referred to as 9/11?" If we discard television, newspapers, and "official sources",
the answer is "Far less than we thought we knew". Buildings, planes, and victims - all are lost in a haze of speculative and contradictory hypotheses.
News reporting should be more reliable, don't you think? Clues are emerging such as at Simon Shack's
septemberclues.org. It may be too soon to expect Americans to understand that 9/11 was also simply a huge TV and mainline-media hoax,
the purpose of which was to demolish commercial real-estate in a financially profitable urban renewal project, spinning a story into a politically
expedient narrative. Exposing this fact certainly ought not take as long as it did to expose the imagery of trips to the moon, media's ongoing censorship and
9/11 victimology nonsense notwithstanding.
Since the 1945 end of WW-II a televised American myth , in the words of the bard's MacBeth, is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
The time for the truth is now and may actually be passing. Tyranny, fascism, New World government, Orwell's image of mankind's face with a boot on it, this is
our future unless we are willing to separate TV's illusions from facts. It is not easy. The two formidable psychological stumbling blocks are fear and denial.
Not everyone is going to get a grip on the extent of the deceit. It is the responsibility of those who understand to confront corporate and banking criminals,
the few who threaten us and everyone, themselves and their own children included. Their fascism, a psychopathic drive to pseudo-benevolently manipulate
economic and social relationships of other human beings in order to pursue their lust for money and power, is aided and abetted by their media partners in
crime, especially the criminals who support them with our enthralling televised illusions.
