Johnathan Douglas

I interviewed Johnathan Douglas on 01/15/10. I have never been more impressed by any 9/11 Truther. The gentleman expresses a great sincerity, humility, vision, and work ethic. To me, this is the way to do it. It’s the winning approach. Mr. Douglas is working with Cheri Roberts on the Circle of Truth Project. Thanks, Mr. Douglas.

The Roberts Report

Dr. David Ray Griffin Speaks on Hard Evidence,
Unnecessary Anonymity, and Coming Together
Message to the Choir series #6

Roberts/Griffin Conference Call 50 min. at 20.5 MB – Get .mp3

It’s not often I do a segment of The Roberts Report in the evening, especially when it’s in my own time zone however, we made an exception to accommodate Dr. Griffin’s busy schedule and I was happy to do so.

Dr. David Ray Griffin is a retired Professor of Philosophy of Religion and Theology, Emeritus, Claremont School of Theology and Claremont Graduate University in Claremont, California. He continues to be co-director of the Center for Process Studies.

I addressed statements that Dr. Griffin had made in the past where out of context it had appeared to many that he supported the New World Order. In the clarification he provides for The Roberts Report, you will get a better understanding behind his support of what he deems Global Democracy and how it can be better for the planet as a whole. You may also see references in a chapter of his book American Empire and the Common Wealth of God.

Griffin is known widely in the 9/11 Truth movement for his 8 + books dedicated specifically to numerous questions, inaccuracies, omissions, and distortions surrounding the September 11th, 2001 attacks as they have been wrongly preserved in history by the 9/11 Commission Report and the following N.I.S.T. Reports. David has been able to dissect and logically lay out these blatant flaws in easy to understand books and lectures.

His most recent and potentially most damning book The Mysterious Collapse of World Trade Center 7: Why the Final Official Report About 9/11 Is Unscientific and False (Olive Branch Press, 2009), is an eye opener for many people who are still unaware (like my own father) that at 5:20 PM on September 11th, a third building in the WTC complex suddenly and inexplicably collapsed at free-fall speed into its own footprint without having been hit by an airplane or subjected to jet fuel fires – a phenomenon that even N.I.S.T cannot explain. In Griffins own words, “I would say that if people just want to read one book”…”it is easily the most convincing” of his own books.

We discussed unity in the Truth movement and the upcoming global 9/11 Truth visibility event Circle of Truth 2010, to which David candidly said,

“We need to remember that overwhelmingly, everybody in the movement has so much in common of all the aspects of the official story that we reject.” And to not forget,

“The foundation of what we are doing is that we all reject the official story of 9/11 and we reject it for many, many reasons.”

In an interactive effort, I opened the discussion to those on FaceBook who have been following the Message to the Choir series on the Roberts Report. Comic & Writer John Neubert posted the following question on my FB wall,

“Please ask Mr. Griffin if there is any real physical evidence that proves government involvement in 911 and if so why this can’t be used to invoke congress to re-open investigations?”

Daniel Bland, retired from the US Armed Services, a man who just three months after 9/11 enlisted. He says he “didn’t wake up” to the questions surrounding 9/11 until the fall of 2008. When given an opportunity to ask Dr. Griffin a question he asked,

“Can we use science to determine how long it will take this brainwashed country to wake up to the obvious?”

Both questions were answered by David and can be listened to or downloaded and shared on the 9/11 Truther Cyberzine.

Griffin discussed the solid peer reviewed evidence discovered by Physics Prof., Dr. Stephen Jones, his own research and the collaborative work being done with architect Richard Gage, A.I.A., founder of Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth.

Noting a powerful YouTube video about an orange, he encourages the simplicity of this brief presentation to everybody. An orange you ask? Just watch it; it’s worth the 2 mins., I even gave you the link. It’s worth it and in my humble opinion will make many uninformed feel downright silly for having not seen the Truth sooner.
This is an orange

In this 50 minute interview David was also able to address fear, paranoia and the use of anonymity explaining how some due to their profession may not be able to use their real names without repercussion however, he relays that it is “hard to not suspect” those who use a pseudonym and that “if they really are legitimate people…maybe they should use their real names”. With honesty and humor he also explains unfounded accusation of disinfo towards genuine Truthers who are simply wrong or misled.

Again many thanks to Dr. Griffin for his time.

about Disinfo and Coming Together

Roberts/Gold Conference Call 25 min. at 14.9 MB – Get .mp3

Celebrating the 5 year anniversary of his Blog YBBS activist writer Jon Gold joined me today on the Roberts Report. After years of diligent effort Mr. Gold reaches out to the 9/11 Truth movement as a whole and calls for fellow activists to step up to the plate. The Truth is we want a new investigation, other than that, we don’t know the Truth and Jon Gold would like us to remember that.

We discussed debunker sites, dis-info participants, and their followers- who may genuinely be misinformed or fooled while agreeing it is important to know what your adversaries have to say in order to overcome their damage. Listing ways we can approach them, Jon believes we could gradually bring them into the fold without allowing a platform for disinformation.

Best known for his article The Facts Speak for Themselves, Gold details 50 irrefutable facts for Truthers to utilize in their everyday arsenal. These facts such, no theory needs to be endorsed nor discussed when talking to people about the unTruths of what happened that day and what to do about it.

Mr. Gold is a huge supporter of the Jersey Girls and the Kyle Hence documentary 911 Press for Truth. Additionally he is a strong voice in support of all the Responders of September 11th at the FealGood Foundation who have been left behind in their struggle with life and death.

Hector Lopez, A Citizen of Nowhere

Roberts/Lopez Conference Call 35 min. at 12.2 MB – Get .mp3

In 2006, honorably discharged United States Armed Forces Reservist Hector Lopez – now 46yrs old, was deported to Mexico after serving one tour in Iraq fighting for our country and our freedoms. He had lived in America since he was 4 yrs. old and considers America his home.

He became a U.S. National as per the U.S. Military Oath of enlistment – section(101)(a)(22)of the Immigration and Nationality Act. He desired only to participate in protecting the country he calls his own. By sworn oath he vowed his loyalties to the United States and was told he would not and could not be deported because of his Military service to the U.S. and has documentation to prove it.

Mr. Lopez returned from active duty and he, like many other war Veterans, got involved with drugs and alcohol to help deal with PTSD and other issues. He’d sought help from the V.A. in vain and was deported to a country he is unfamiliar with and a language that is not his own. Mr. Lopez says, “They may as well have put me on the moon…this is not my country, the United States is my country. I’m an American. My allegiance is to the United States of America”

Separated from his children – who are legal citizens of the United States, Mr. Lopez lives and works in what he feels is a foreign land. Working for less than five American dollars a day he can’t even afford to buy a Big Mac from the local McDonalds in Tijuana. He seeks only to return home to his family and exercise his right to work for a living wage as well as receive care from the V.A. as a U.S war Veteran. Mr. Lopez cannot even activate his G.I. Bill because he can’t come back to America to do so.

In an unfortunate twist he goes on to tell us how Mexico doesn’t even recognize him as a citizen. How can an honorably discharged U.S. Soldier be a citizen of nowhere? Who is going to right this injustice? Who can give Mr. Lopez’s children back the time the United States government has stolen from them?

Call Congress, call your Senators and help make it right for this man and his family. He fought for our country and deserves to be returned to our society to be with his family. Visit banishedveterans.info for more information on Hector Lopez and nearly 3000 other banished Vets that come from all branches of the United States Military and are Veterans as far back as the Vietnam War. Surely every American can agree that these Soldiers have earned the right to continue living in the country they have bravely and willingly served?

(Editors’ Note: I’m adding this correction at 01/20/10 at 10:10 a.m. Pacific Standard Time.)

Hector Lopez Correction by Ms. Roberts:

In light of multiple correspondence as well as online posts I would like to correct a statement said by me- in published writing as well as verbally in a recorded interview, that Hector Lopez was an IRAQ war Veteran. He is not. Mr. Lopez instead served our country in Grenada and when I misspoke during our interview, by his own admission he never corrected me on my mistake.

Hector Lopez is an honorably discharged United States Veteran who has been deported. All other information is factual and I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience or confusion my mistake may have created. He has made the following statement,

“Cheri, sorry for not correcting you on that slight misunderstanding. In my willingness to get as much press coverage as possible, I didn’t want to correct you on the air. I don’t think that it makes much difference which conflict I served in, I am an Honorably Discharged Veteran of The U.S. Military and I do have it in black and white where it says that I will NOT be deported because of my prior Military Service. I am sorry for any and all inconvenience I may have caused you, and I am ready anytime you are to make it right.”
