FBI Memo Expresses 9/11 "Doubters" as Terrorists

(9/11 "Truthers" Marching in NY on Anniversary)
In studying "terrorism" through a course taught at one of the top universities in California, the very definition of the term is one of the most loosely defined and ambiguous in the English language. What terrorism is understood to be as its meaning continues to evolve is defined over the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) website as:

"The unlawful use of force and violence against persons or properties to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives" (28 C.F.R. § 0.85).

Although the U.S. government's definition is not universally adopted by the international community, officials representing the United States continue to assert this definition at international conferences with the United Nations, etc., using 9/11 among other examples to support their case. Internationally speaking, however; many might argue the U.S. government as having a hand in both directly and indirectly aiding "terrorist" operations around the world.

A classic is the cliched and declassified Top Secret executive memorandum about Operation Northwoods, which was planned to be a Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)-led mission conducted between Miami, Florida and Cuba as a false flag precursor, to be used as a reason for invading Cuba during the 1960's missile crisis when tensions between government's were high. The late President John F. Kennedy averted this crisis by striking the plan down.

I understand the human tendency of wanting to know the "truth" and going to great lengths in time, energy, and resources only to know in the back of my mind that time itself reveals things as they are. I spent years of my life independently investigating 9/11. This said, to accept things as they are and live peacefully among others even if we might not always like or agree with what exists is not so much conceding to defeat as it is understanding the philosophy that all things are revealed in due course as this is the nature of the universe.

"Let the future tell the truth, and evaluate each one according to his work and accomplishments. The present is theirs; the future, for which I have really worked, is mine." -- Nikola Tesla
