THE FIRST SCHOLARS FOR 9/11 TRUTH CONFERENCE:
The Science of 9/11: What's Controversial, What's Not
Propaganda by the government and the corporate media would have us
believe that the 9/11 "inside job" hypothesis is not merely
controversial but unsupported by proof. That is wrong. Academics,
experts, and scholars who have examined the physical evidence and
considered this event within its historical context tend to converge
in agreement that the inside-job hypothesis is, in fact, strongly
supported by the available evidence, while the version advanced in The
9/11 Commission Report is not only false but provably false and in
crucial respects physically impossible. That the official account of
9/11 is a lie and that 9/11 appears to have been an inside job is no
longer a matter of serious scientific debate. If you have any doubt,
visit our site at
911scholars.org.
Even though the broad outlines of what happened are no longer
controversial--for example, we know that The World Trade Center was
intentionally demolished by a high-energy causal process physically
unrelated to plane crashes and resulting fires--the precise details of
how the perpetrators carried out the attack remains the subject of
intense controversy. What we know with relative certainty about 9/11
is already the story of the century: it demands re-thinking our
history, our politics, perhaps even our way of life. From a scientific
rather than political standpoint, controversial questions about what
may have happened on 9/11 are fascinating and challenging--not least
of all because they could lead to a better understanding of 9/11 with
respect to its social and political significance. And if high-tech
weaponry was used at the WTC, that would rather strongly implicate the
Department of Defense as their source.
In an attempt to clarify these matters, Scholars for 9/11 Truth will
be hosting a conference entitled "The Science of 9/11: What's
Controversial, What's Not", to be held 3-5 August 2007 in Madison, WI.
I think we can all agree that the most important dimension of our
efforts is explaining why the "official account" that the government
has advanced cannot be sustained. Since there can be disagreements
even here about what we should or should not emphasize and what has or
has not been proven to an extent sufficient to emphasize them as basic
"refutations" of the government's account, Kevin Barrett and I will
discuss the science and the politics of 9/11 research as the opening
session.
The major sessions will be devoted to the issues that have tended to
divide us. Judy Wood, Frank Greening, and Bob Fitrakis will explore
and analyze the serious possibility that non-conventional means,
including high-tech, directed energy weapons, may have been used along
with conventional methods to destroy the World Trade Center. Jerry
Leaphart, Ed Haas, Morgan Reynolds, and Judy Wood will discuss their
historic legal actions involving the NIST. Morgan Reynolds, Rick
Rajter, and Dave von Kleist will discuss what did or did not happened
to the planes alleged to have hit the Pentagon, Shanksville, and the
WTC on 9/11. Ed Haas of THE MUCKRACKER REPORT will present our keynote
address on "The National 9/11 Non-Debate".
Registration, including lunches on both days, will be $125. Attendance
at the meeting is limited to 150 participants. This conference will be
distinctive by focusing on the issues that have divided us, by longer
sessions dealing with them in great depth and, by virtue of its size,
affording unusual opportunities for personal interaction between the
speakers and the participants. You will get to know Kevin Barrett,
Judy Wood, Morgan Reynolds, Ed Haas, Jerry Leaphart, Bob Fitrakis,
Frank Greening, Dave von Kleist, Rick Rajter, Jim Fetzer, and more.

Oregon, WI 53575. Please contact Jim Fetzer, Program Chair, for more
information at

Anyone who has thoughts about the program that they would like to
share is welcome to forward them to me at
jfetzer@d.umn.edu at their
earliest convenience. This conference should provide an opportunity
for experts on complex and technical scientific questions to explain
their research and its significance. My hope is that by subjecting
each others' research to rigorous but collegial criticism, the
attention-getting controversial aspects of 9/11 research may be turned
into a benefit, rather than a distraction, in the larger process of
seeking and exposing the truth about 9/11 and gaining an adequate
scientific understanding of how all of this was done.
