End Notes

The excellently researched book by Elias Davidsson deals with the events of 11 September 2001, events that stirred and shocked the whole globe. Elias Davidsson’s book is comprehensive, penetrating, fact-rich, thoroughly researched and easy to read, using the best available sources. An admirable and compact reference work about 9/11.

Davidsson presents us with an unbelievable mass of inconsistencies, cover-ups, incongruities; the secrecy and the suppression and destruction of evidence; and the intimidation of witnesses. Those responsible in government and Congress, whether Republicans or Democrats, and to this day also the courts, have prevented for almost 20 years a flawless criminal investigation of this monstrous crime attributed to a small group of Islamic fundamentalist youth. The alleged mastermind: Osama bin Laden, said to have masterminded the events in the United States from a cave in Afghanistan.

Davidsson addresses in detail the background that led to 9/11, namely the collapse of the Soviet Union. With its collapse, the former arch enemy of the United States vanished. The military-industrial-intellectual complex had to find a replacement-enemy in order to prevent the threat of a shrinking military budget. The enemy was found in the guise of what was designated as internationally organized Muslim terror. Up to 60 states which allegedly promoted terrorism thus came into the crosshairs of American foreign and military policy. The states are located at geostrategically significant locations, and most of them are home to economically interesting raw material deposits.

The attacks of 9/11 belong to the category of false flag operations by one or more secret services. The attacks were planned to have a catalytic effect on the public mind in such a way that they could be convincingly blamed on an enemy. In this way, the planners procured themselves a justification for what they presented as a just campaign of revenge and robbery against the diabolical enemy. This war ruse is actually thousands of years old.

On the basis of Davidsson's analysis, one can see how a false flag operation can be directed against one's own people. In the months leading up to 9/11, the many hints and warnings about the impending attack were ignored and rudely suppressed. The purported cluelessness before the crime was followed within minutes of the attack by the U.S. media trumpeting worldwide the culprits’ identities, including a detailed description of the modus operandi and even the background of the alleged mastermind bin Laden. Day after day, the U.S. government, operating in crisis mode, dominated public perception with its alleged findings. The feeding troughs of the mass media were filled hourly with the components of the script. Any journalist who expressed doubts about the official narrative was pushed aside and risked dismissal -- committing what Americans call “career suicide.”

What then followed was the obstruction of the criminal investigation by the removal and destruction of evidence; the disregard of witnesses who might have disturbed the official narrative; conditions imposed on the investigative committees in both houses of Congress; and generous compensation lavished on 9/11 victims in exchange for waiving their right to initiate court proceedings against the government or the airlines.

Those who doubt government narratives are up against a tactic invented years ago by the CIA, the allegation of “conspiracy theory.” This term has been used to slander all those who expressed doubts about the official account of President John F. Kennedy’s assassination, namely the theory of Oswald as a lone perpetrator. Meanwhile, seventy percent of U.S. citizens doubt that official account. By labelling doubters as conspiracy theorists, they are in fact classified as mentally deranged. As no one relishes being viewed as a loonie, people refrain from expressing doubts about government narratives. Those who have been labelled by the media as conspiracy theorists are excluded from mainstream dialogue. As a result, facts and arguments presented by the mainstream media regarding 9/11 and similar events are one-sided and cannot be taken at face value. The use of this label harms not only the targeted person but the democratic debate.

Davidsson will undoubtedly be called names by those who prefer slander to rational debate. This will not deter him or his readers from pursuing the truth. The factual strength of the book will constitute for a long time a formidable challenge to those who have profited and continue to profit from the official account of 9/11.

Dr. iur. Andreas von Bülow served as secretary of state in the German Federal Ministry of Defence and as Minister of Research and Technology. As a member of the German Parliament (Bundestag), he served on the parliamentary committee on intelligence services. He is author of several books.

The American people were hit hard on 9/11. The perpetrators did not only kill 3,000 people, mostly Americans, bringing tragedy to their families, but provided justifications for restrictions to liberties and endless wars that have affected millions of people worldwide. The American people have paid dearly in money and blood as a result of this horrendous crime. And so have others.

I feel it my duty, as a veteran defender of human rights, to share with my American friends my knowledge and findings about rights and responsibilities ensuing from the crime against humanity committed on 9/11.Victims and their families possess the right to know the unvarnished facts.The U.S. government and its allies bear the moral, political and legal responsibility in establishing the truth about this crime and ensure the identification and conviction of its perpetrators and accomplices.

The victims of 9/11 and the American people have been denied their rights. This book is intended to empower 9/11 victims, their families and ordinary Americans to demand their right to the truth and to justice. If it advances this cause, it has accomplished its purpose.

For almost two decades the United States and its allies have succeeded in suppressing popular efforts to expose the deceptive account of the events of 11 September 2001 (hereafter 9/11). Attempts to challenge the official account have met with stiff resistance from governments, academia and the media. Researchers who question the official account are vilified, mobbed and fired from their jobs. Yet despite massive and systematic efforts to denigrate such investigative efforts, public awareness is seeping through that the U.S. government and its allies are covering up the facts. The ranks of those who question the official narrative on 9/11 are growing by the year and may possibly cause a political crisis corresponding in vehemence to the doggedness with which the truth is being suppressed today.
