The following is a quote taken from Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of the American Left:

"...both the Wilson and the FDR administrations were descendants - albeit distant ones - of the first fascist movement: the French Revolution...It produced the first modern dictators, Robespierre and Napoleon, and worked on the premise that the nation had to be ruled by an enlightened avant-garde who would serve as the organic, authentic voice of the 'general will.'...Robespierre summed up the totalitarian logic of the Revolution: 'There are only two parties in France: the people and its enemies. We must exterminate those miserable villains who are eternally conspiring against the right of man...[W]e must exterminate our enemies.'"

1967 – Guerrilla leader Che Guevara and his men are captured in Bolivia.

Here is a great book on 9/11: Towers of Deception – The Media Cover-Up of 9/11 – Barrie Zwicker

Select quotes from this book:
“…to logically believe in the official story you have to believe there were 19 kamikaze Arab hijackers who could hijack four commercial airlines all at once and outsmart the $44-billion-a-year US intelligence apparatus and outwit NORAD, the FAA, and the US Air Force and fly the airlines with pinpoint accuracy into the Twin Towers and Pentagon and thus bring the towers down (a first in architectural history) and that all this was orchestrated by Osama bin Laden or some other member of al Qaeda.”

  • “In the day before 9/11, unusual volumes of trading had occurred in certain 9/11-related stocks. This involved ‘put-options’ – investments that pay off only when a stock drops in price.”
  • “The official theory of the collapse, therefore, is essentially a fire theory. Yet fire never caused large steel-framed buildings to collapse before or after 9/11.”
  • On Christmas Day, 2001, the New York Times said: ‘The decision to rapidly recycle the steel columns, beams, and trusses from the WTC in the days immediately after 9/11 means definitive answers may never be known.’ The next week, Fire Engineering Magazine said: ‘We are literally treating the steel removed from the site like garbage, not like crucial fire scene evidence…’”
  • “Number of days after event that an independent investigation was ordered:
  1. Event
  2. Sinking of the titanic 6
  3. JFK Assassination 7
  4. Challenger Disaster 7
  5. Pearl Harbor Attack 9
  6. Events of 9/11 441
