Millions of people now know the main arguments for the thesis "9/11
was an inside job", starting from the controlled demolition of the
World Trade Center buildings No. 1, 2 and 7. Even a champion of
orthodoxy like Time Magazine was obliged to note that the "9/11
Truth Movement" is no longer "a fringe phenomenon. It is a
mainstream reality." Kevin Barrett takes this now-familiar thesis
as a springboard to new territory in this book. Like Jack Kerouac
in "On the Road", Barrett has written a gospel for a new generation
of post-9/11 sceptics. This ebullient book strikes a confident
keynote for this sudden coming of age. It is a tonic draft of
courage for millions of disenfranchised 9/11 truthers -- and for
the uneasy majority who sense that America, once a beacon of ideals
for humanity, is no longer on the right track. "Truth Jihad" is the
first "9/11 Truth" book that is not primarily tasked with proving
9/11 was an inside job to our fellow humanity, who remain blindly
trapped inside the mainstream media bubble. For millions of us the
facts are already painfully clear now -- as is the frustration of
trying to convey the harsh truth to those who aren't ready for it.
This book is a sharing of that experience, and an affirmation of
life and literature after 9/11 -- a lively celebration of art,
freedom, truth and protest.
Enter a hidden world of mysteries, scandals, secrets, and lies
Perhaps it is human nature to believe there is more to the world
than meets the eye - that the greatest secrets and truths are
hidden from us. Whatever the reason, conspiracy theories are a
global phenomenon. Conspiracies Uncovered delves into some of the
most pervasive theories, from the "The assassination of John F.
Kennedy" to the moon landings, showcasing the evidence for and
against each one, revealing the surprising truths behind some and
the bizarre inspirations for others.
