"Connect the dots" while having "Dinner and a Movie!"
In 9/11 Press for Truth, five of the most prominent members of the Family Steering Committee tell their story for the first time, providing the most powerful argument yet for why 9/11 still needs to be investigated. The documentary is based in part on the Complete 9/11 Timeline that was compiled by citizen investigator Paul Thompson using the Cooperative Research website.
Although independent investigations began within weeks of both Pearl Harbor and the Kennedy assassination, the same was not true of the attacks of September 11th. Most are unaware that formation of the 9/11 Commission was strongly opposed by many in Washington, including the Bush administration. It was only due to pressure from the 9/11 families, led by a particular twelve calling themselves the Family Steering Committee, that, fourteen months after the attacks, the first hearing finally began. These twelve remained active in monitoring the Commission's investigation, providing a list of hundreds of specific, well-researched questions to the Commissioners. In the end, the Final Report failed to answer seventy percent of them. Leaving these broken hearted families with "Answers that don't answer, explanations that don't explain, and conclusions that don't conclude."
"Surely even the most cynical among us believes that a betrayal of such magnitude must carry consequences. Without consequences, there is no justice for the dead and no safety for the living. Why has no one been held accountable?"
We will no longer tolerate these "the dog ate my homework" excuses!
