In times of war. telling the truth is revolutionary act! Arnaud Mercier is professor at the university Paul Verlaine, Metz (France) and would publish a paper titled. "War and media:: Constancy and convulsion", where it outlines the centuries old deployment regarding the legacy media and disinformation in the hopes of psychologically manipulating the listener or viewer.
Dave DeCamp is the News editor of of Antiwar.com and Host of "Antiwar News with Dave DeCamp". In today's episode, Richard Cox and myself join Dave DeCamp to talk about the current crisis in Yemen. How the war started, the terrorist Al Qaeda affiliates involved, how the United States got involved by aiding weapons to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the future prospects of peace in the region. The conflict has witnessed many horrors, including the approximate deaths of over 400,000 people, and over 1.2 million Yemeni's displaced which has caused a massive overhaul of immigration problems in nearby cities. DeCamp also speaks on the World Health Organization which talks about the violence in the country and the close proximity to the health facilities, impeding their ability to function and restricting the movement of health staff, patients and ambulances and how the military industrial complex continues to benefit to the tomes of billions as the conflict rages on with full support of the Trump and Biden administrations.

The Joint Inquiry into Intelligence Community Activities before and after the Terrorist Attacks of September 11, 2001 is the official name of the inquiry conducted by the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence and the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence into the activities of the U.S. Intelligence Community in connection with the September 11, 2001 attacks. The investigation began in February 2002 and the final report was released in December 2002.
The Joint Inquiry received testimony from the Director of Central Intelligence and the Directors of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the National Security Agency, and also examined the records of these agencies, to determine what the Intelligence Community knows now about the September 11 attacks. FBI Director Mueller described efforts by the U.S. intelligence and law enforcement communities “to find out everything we could about the hijackers and how they succeeded.”

The Israeli government, and it's military, push into Gaza has now extended into the West Bank, forcibly expelling over 1.5 million Palestinians which have come under intense criticisms from even European world leaders. I read from the latest news and offer some thoughts.

In November 1996, the FBI monitors the progress of Osama Bin Laden buying a new satellite phone and tracks the purchase to Ziyad Khaleel, a US citizen and radical militant living in Missouri. The phone is sent to Khalid al-Fawwaz, al-Qaeda’s unofficial press secretary in London, who ships it to Tora Bora, Afghanistan where it is then given to Osama Bin Laden. However, Khaleel was being closely investigated for an unrelated matter, the FBI informs the National Security Agency (NSA) to begin monitoring the satellite phone, in which Bin Laden uses til 1998. Hundreds of calls are made, however, one number keeps constantly popping up... 967–1–200578. It was traced back to a house located in Sana'a Yemen, which was owned by a man named Ahmed al-Hada, a long time associate to Bin Laden whom he kew from Afghanistan during the Soviet war.
The NSA began monitoring all calls made to and from the home. Soon the CIA became the lead agency in charge of the Sana'a Yemen hub operation by conducting round the clock surveillance, but wanted also all the signals data. The NSA refused to share the half of the data, which were on the receiving end. The CIA then put a listening device in the house, and heard half of the conversations from the phone. The NSA and now the CIA were monitoring two active lines used by the most wanted terrorist in the world, Osama Bin Laden, and his orgaznaition, Al Qaeda. The question is, what did they hear on the other end?

It is now up to the Southern District of New York courts under George Daniels, if the evidence against the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia by the plaintiffs of 9/11 victims families, can be used to hold them civilly liable for the terrorist attacks. I read from an article by The Atlantic who reported on the latest court filing.
In the immediate aftermath of the terrorist attacks of September 11th 2001, there was a national outcry for a government inquiry to start asking the right questions which could hold people accountable for allowing the attacks to transpire. However, immediately afterwards, fringe conspiracy theorists infiltrated the 9/11 truth movement. This lead to the organization to become disillusioned with unremarkable theories which the media took full advantage and labeled the movement as "irresponsible" and "irrational". The damage was done in the public eye, and unless we start asking the "right questions" we may never hold anyone accountable for the terrorist attacks of 9/11.
