Much depends upon your participation. The time has come for us to dismantle the 9/11 myth, and thereby to remove any remaining pretext for the endless global war.  In order to do this, we will need to engage in direct, real-time political action, which will involve street protest, distribution of scientific literature and politically sensitive material, possibly civil disobedience.
