Bay Area to Host 9/11 Conspiracy Movie Festival

Police officers watch bag pipers play after leaving a ceremony to honor police officers killed during or as a result of the 9/11 terrorist attacks in New York, Thursday, Sept. 8, 2011.
Ten years after the devastating Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, some Bay Area residents continue to question the official version of events, and will discuss their doubts at a film festival in Oakland and San Francisco this week.
The festival, "9/11 Reclaiming the Truth, Reclaiming our Future," is organized by the Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance, a group that formed shortly after the Sept. 11 attacks.
The lineup of films and speakers kicked off at the Grand Lake Theater in Oakland this afternoon, and will continue on Sunday at the Herbst Theatre in San Francisco after a march from Justin Herman Plaza to the theater.
Similar events are being held in Seattle and in Toronto, and a portion of those events will be broadcast live in the Bay Area as part of the film festival.
The slate of films includes "Loose Change 9/11: An American Coup," "9/11: Explosive Evidence -- Experts Speak Out," and "We Were Also Killed on 9/11: First Responders."
"We've had rallies every year," said Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance co-founder Carol Brouillet. She said the group organized its first film festival in 2004 and has had similar events every year since.
She said the main goal of the festival is to inform attendees about "the disparity between the official version and the actual events."
With an event of such magnitude as the Sept. 11 attacks, the details are complicated and there is a huge amount of information to digest.
For that reason, Brouillet said, there is little agreement even among members of her group as to what happened on that day.
"Nobody has the same idea of what happened, because it was big, complex, and no one has access to all the information," Brouillet said.
However, she believes that the federal government was at the very least informed about the attacks and allowed them to happen as justification for a shift in foreign and domestic policy.
While that view has never gained traction in the mainstream, a recent BBC News poll found that 15 percent of those polled in the U.S. believe that there was a conspiracy behind 9/11 that involved the federal government.
Brouillet believes that the people raising the questions, who she said are often highly educated, have been unfairly labeled as conspiracy theorists. She acknowledged that the general public finds the topic uncomfortable.
She said the festival will also address the attacks' psychological effects on Americans, including fear and anger.
"It was the event of the century, so many people's identity is linked to their identity as an American. They have to do some soul-searching to see what's real, what's true, and who they are, and how to respond to this new information," Brouillet said.

hey, at this point in time, the MAJORITY of people don't buy the official story.
The loud, irrational vocal minority is now those who believe the official story.
These folks only want a complete investigation of the murder of 3000 americans. IMO, it's patriotic NOT to want to fully understand that crime and catch all responsible. But hey, that's rational. You guys have emotion, right? Who needs facts?

did you see the AOLNews piece this morning? Decades of lung troubule ahead for most of yall in NYC.
White House went out of their way to LIE about that. EPA whistleblower scientists came fwd.
Aside from that, you respect the law, right 33?
Rudy sent the metal to china for scrap in violation of law. Spitzer approved of this. Pataki said nothing.
The investigation was a "whitewash" according to one author, and the 2 co-chairs were very unhappy they were limited from looking at things they wwanted to look at.
3000 dead americans, and all involved admit the investigation was NOT complete. There were 4 govt investigations into pearl harbor. WHy only one into 911?
Do you support a new investigation, 33?

Why did they rush those tons and tons of steel out of the US ASAP? Are scrap prices higher in China? Shipping it must have been expensive.

our govt failed to investigate it properly.

-
Coward. Name your ct.

Lol. Nah I am not going to go. Notre Dame on later, got things to do around the house. Lol.

I wonder if there is still florensic evidence left over from the place they took the people on the pentagon flight and killed them?
I wonder how much they got for the scrap metal from melting down the plane?
I also wonder how many poeple who were involved have died from mysterious deaths since 2001?

i think its forensic...
I wonder if they still have the projectors around they used to project holograms on to the towers?
I wonder if they still have the trucks used to bus in the plane wreckage at the pentagon?
I wonder if they how they were able to rig 3 buildings with enough explosives to demo them without anyone knowing?

Lol dam iPad spell check.
And the missing cruise missle. Oh yeah, we Lose or misplace stuff like that all the time
-
Witness on fox news just said he witnesses plane hit pentagon as he was standing at the site. Said clear as day it was an aa plane.
So much for that bs ct.
-
Of all the thousands and thousands of people involved, no one has talked in ten years? That's the most successfully kept secret in the history of the human race.
They must have been setting up charges inside the WTC for MONTHS before the attack. Yet no one caught a glimpse.
Faked phone calls from passengers on board the planes. That's double tough considering you don't actually know if someone is getting on the plane until the last second.
I really have no respect for the truther movement. Crock of shit.
-
Ten years later and the truthers still have not a shred of evidence more than they did on 9 12 2001.
-
Firefighters and engineers were telling the news all day that wtc 7 was structurally weak after collapse all day before it went down.
I guess more bogus ct nonsense shot to smitherines by reality.
I really have not an ounce of humor for the truthers.

Hahahahaha, my name is 180 and I can shoot that theory down with one word: holograms.
-
For the record I am not a truther but people need to understand why there are truthers. The US government has lied in the past to get us into war, I mean the Gulf of Tonkin incident never happened and 60,000 Americans died plus millions of Vietnamese, waste of a war and lives for an event that never happened. People have a reason to distrust the government on every level as the government does not have the American people's best interests in mind, economically, foreign policy-wise or just in general.
-
I have now asked for ten years to put forward a ct that can't be destroyed in five minutes flat.
Ten years later I am still waiting.

It's not about CTs, it's about the people not trusting the government, just an issue of trust.
-
Distrust is fine - but if you are going to be accuse others of mass murder and complicity in this, not saying you particularly of course, one had better dmore than simply post utter nonsense that can be destroyed in five seconds flat and then move on to other bogus shit once the previous ct gets debunked.
The truthers have done more to discredit their own cause than anyone else w their nonsense.

actually only dem admins lie to the public. repubs are honest. or wait, they're more honest. I can't quantify it, but the chicks on fox news are way hotter than contessa and obama hates america, so it must be true.
