  • Testimony to US House Committee on Homeland Security Subcommittee on Transportation Security
    Association of Professional Flight Attendants Proudly Representing the Flight Attendants of American Airlines Office of the President Testimony to US House Committee on Homeland Security Subcommittee on Transportation Security “TSA’s efforts to Advance Risk-Based Security: Stakeholder Perspectives” April 11, 2013 Introduction Chairman Hudson, Ranking Member Richmond, and Members of the Subcommittee, Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to submit the following testimony. Furthermore, thank you very much for your recent strong statements regarding TSA’s policy making process. Although we may not all agree on the recently announced change in the prohibited items list, I believe there is bipartisan agreement that the decision-making process did not include input from each critical stakeholder. I appreciate your support in holding TSA accountable for this oversight. The attacks of September 11, 2001, changed the commercial aviation industry, and the flight attendant profession in particular, dramatically and forever. The protocols and security measures that were instituted after those tragic events had one single intention: to keep us all safe. On March 5, 2013, Administrator John Pistole of the Transportation Security Administration announced a policy change that would once again allow knives of a certain size on board aircraft departing from US airports. The policy is ostensibly justified by the ‘risk-based analysis’ this hearing seeks to better understand. Although we support risk-based security and the periodic review of TSA’s prohibited items list, the Association of Professional Flight Attendants, representing over 16,000 American Airlines employees, vehemently rejects the TSA’s attempt to make such a sweeping policy change without the input of key stakeholders.

Nearly 3,000 people, representing 90 different countries, lost their lives that day. These victims were business men and women, vacation-goers, and loved ones heading from the east coast to California to visit friends and family. What started out as a beautiful Fall day on the east coast in the United States with thousands of commuters heading to work and going about their everyday lives, ended in tragedy and sorrow, leaving behind a permanent scar that would change all our lives forever. The events of 9/11 affected our entire country on a grand scale both economically and culturally. But Massachusetts was a part of this day, from the attacks to the impact.

  • 1.1 Inside the Four Flights
    SUBJECT TO CLASSIFICATION RE'VIEW CHAPTER ONE "WE HAVE SOME PLANES" Tuesday, September 11, 2001, dawned temperate and nearly cloudless in the eastern United States. Millions of men and women readied themselves for work. Some made their way to the Twin Towers, the signature structures of the World Trade Center complex in New York City. Others went to the Pentagon, the world's largest office building. Across the Potomac river, the United States Congress was back in session. In Sarasota, Florida, President George W. Bush went for an early morning run. For those heading to an airport, weather conditions could not have been better for a safe and pleasant journey. Among the travelers were Mohamed Atta and Abdul Aziz al Omari, who arrived at the airport in Portland, Maine. 1.1 Inside the Four Flights Boarding the Flights Boston: American 11 and Ullited 175. Atta and a1 Omari boarded a 6:00a.m. flight from Portland to Boston's Logan International Airport.1 When he checked in for his flight to Boston, Atta was selected by a computerized prescreening system known as CAPPS created to identify passengers who should be subject to special security measures. Under security directives in place at the time, the only consequence of Atta's selection by CAPPS was that his checked bags were held off the plane until it was confirmed that he had boarded the aircraft. This did not hinder 2 Atta's plans. · Atta and Omari arrived in Boston at 6:45. Seven minutes later, Atta apparently took a call from Marwan al Shehhi, a longtime colleague who was at another terminal at Logan airport.

  • Stranger Than Fiction
    STRANGER THAN FICTION AN INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATION OF 9-11 AND THE WAR ON TERRORISM By: Dr. Albert D. Pastore Phd. Author hereby grants full permission to reproduce and mass distribute this paper for non- commercial use. “All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed, second it is violently opposed, and third, it is accepted as self-evident." - Arthur Schopenhauer German philosopher, 1788-1860 "History is indeed little more than the register of crimes, follies, and misfortunes of mankind -Edward Gibbon British historian, 1737-1794 From Decline and Fall of Roman Empire OPENING STATEMENT The ancient Greek philosopher Socrates taught his students that the pursuit of truth can only begin once they start to question and analyze every belief that they ever held dear. If a certain belief passes the tests of evidence, deduction, and logic, it should be kept. If it doesn't, the belief should not only be discarded, but the thinker must also then question why he was led to believe the erroneous information in the first place. Not surprisingly, this type of teaching didn't sit well with the ruling elite of Greece. Many political leaders throughout history have always sought to mislead the thinking of the masses. Socrates was tried for "subversion" and for "corrupting the youth". He was then forced to take his own life by drinking poison. It's never easy being an independent thinker! Today, our ruling government/media complex doesn't kill people for pursuing the truth about the world (at least not yet!) They simply label them as "extremists" or "paranoid", destroying careers and reputations in the process.

  • 9/11 Omission Report: a Citizens Critique of the Final Report of the National Commission on Terrorist Acts Upon the United States
    9/11 Omission Report: A Citizens Critique of the Final Report of the National Commission on Terrorist Acts Upon the United States The Final Report We are presented with a report authorized by the National Commission on Terrorist Acts Upon the United States (9/11 Commission), issued July 22, 2004 as the definitive account of the events of September 11, 2001 and the recommendations that flow from their conclusions and findings. The Final Report has been seen as authoritative, with little critical discussion, based on the “bipartisan consensus” of the Commission members. It has risen to the top of the New York Times’s bestseller lists. However, the assertions and analytical conclusions are based on sets of questionable assumptions, contradictions of fact, and on omissions of key areas of inquiry. In our preliminary critique, 9/11 Citizen’s Watch discussed flaws and omissions in the Commission procedures and investigation. We had raised many of these issues with the Commission during its tenure as well, as did victim family members, and we had some effect on their work. However, their exemption from federal requirements to form family and citizen advisory panels and the Freedom of Information Act were barriers that prevented both transparency and accountability in the process. Following termination of the 9/11 Commission’s work, two “monographs” were released, and more staff reports may follow. These two covered “Terrorist Financing” and “Terrorist Travel.” They are summaries of findings by the various investigative panels of the Commission, and contain a few source documents or pieces of evidence. Some of the material prepared by each team was used in the seventeen staff statements released during the public hearings, and for the “draft sections” of the final report.

  • Crossing the Rubicon
    Advance Praise for Crossing the Rubicon Astounding! Alarming! ... And yet at last, with this -- Mike Ruppert's beyond-courageous offering -- we gain sight of the whole of corporate-managed, government-assisted, bank-laundered, drug-funded plunder. And a jolt to spur our movements to take back the world. — Chellis Glendinning, PhD, author of Chiva: A Village Takes on the Global Heroin Trade and Off the Map: An Expedition Deep into Empire and the Global Economy Mike Ruppert was one of the first journalists to understand the concept and importance of Peak Oil. What is more important, he has connected the dots: he understands the relationships between this historic watershed and the geopolitical events of our time. Mike still has the instincts of a cop (which he once was), but the criminals he is tracking these days are no small-time hoodlums; they are some of the most powerful people on the planet. If you want to understand the dynamics of the oil-money-drugs-and-war imperial system in which we are all embedded, start with this book. — Richard Heinberg, author of The Party's Over and Powerdown Mike Ruppert represents, from top to bottom, the best tradition of an independent thinking, open-minded, uncorrupt able, humorous, prudent, American Cop. After running during his police career into conflicts with the drug dealing part of the CIA, Mike knows that government information seldom equals its disinformation. The doubt about the official 9/11 story brought us together. From the first day after 9/11, I could follow his scouting into the real world behind government propaganda.
