Myth Of Foreign Terrorism: The events of 9/11 were not acts of foreign terrorism (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781727597387)

There are three intertwining themes to this book.
The central theme is the events involving four diverted airliners in the eastern United States on the morning of September 11, 2001 were not acts of foreign terrorism. The mistaken belief that September 11th involved foreign terrorism has become so pervasive that it qualifies as a form of urban legend. It is an idea that has been widely accepted without proof. There have been so many loose references to foreign terrorism since September 11th, that clearing away the semantic fog that has generated false public perceptions about those events reveals the plain truth that the terrorism against Americans related to September 11th wasn't perpetrated by foreigners.
The book's second theme is that in stark contrast to the absence of foreign terrorism, a systematic and very public campaign of domestic terrorism against Americans by the President and his Cabinet, members of Congress, and officials of multiple federal agencies was begun soon after the World Trade Center buildings were struck. That terrorist campaign is compounded by the suspicious circumstances of what occurred prior to, on, and after September 11, the scale of the operation necessary to orchestrate those events, that no organization or group has taken credit for them, and that the federal government and those associated with it are not just the most conspicuous beneficiaries of those events, but they are the only visible direct beneficiaries of them. Thus the factors of means, motive, opportunity, magnitude, and who benefited from September 11th all point to those events were acts of domestic terrorism.
The only terrorism the American people have been, and are being subjected to is being perpetrated against them by the federal government in the form of such things as the Patriot Act of 2001, the Homeland Security Act of 2002, the federalization of airport screeners, the Defense Department's Information Assurance Office, and the incessant drumbeat by politicians and their supporters in the media that we must fear the foreign terrorists hell-bent on harming the United States. Widespread public and media support for those responses is attributable to the trigger events of September 11.
The book's third theme is the threat to the liberty of Americans by people, agencies and organizations within the United States - directly or indirectly associated with the federal government - that are seeking emasculation of the Bill of Rights. Such an agenda can only be accomplished by people with access to the inner sanctum of power in Washington D.C., and not by politically impotent foreigners outside the country who can do nothing to undermine the liberty of Americans. It is only political insiders or people and organizations with meaningful access to them, that can obliterate the liberty of Americans by unleashing the Constitution from the Bill of Rights' symbolic constraint against the unfettered use of its powers against individual men, women and children.
So quite contrary to the assertion of many analysts of the fall-out from the events of September 11th, the campaign in their wake has been to exalt the federal government's powers under the Constitution as supreme over the shield of protections afforded individuals and their associations under the Bill of Rights. Thus it isn't the Constitution that is hated - but the Bill of Rights - just as it was in 1787 by the "founding fathers."
