Scott . . can you please interview April Gallup. She was a pentagon employee who is suing Rumsfeld and others for their involvment in the attacks on the Pentagon. Huge story!
This is from rawstory.com today:
———————————————
A career Army officer who survived the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, claims that no evacuation was ordered inside the Pentagon, despite flight controllers calling in warnings of approaching hijacked aircraft nearly 20 minutes before the building was struck.
According to a time-line of the attacks, the Federal Aviation Administration notified NORAD that American Airlines Flight 77 had been hijacked at 9:24 a.m. The Pentagon was not struck until 9:43 a.m.
Gallop also says she heard two loud explosions, and does not believe that a Boeing 757 hit the building. Her son sustained a serious brain injury, and Gallop herself was knocked unconscious after the roof collapsed onto her office.

wow — this is great!
while it’s downloading, I can’t resist celebrating. If we can agree that OKC was an inside job, to the benefit of Bush 41’s golf partner and Iran/Contra contraband shipping clerk Bubba Clinton, what can be next, but 9/11, and the reinstatement of bumper Afghan opium harvests, after the cold turkey of the Taliban’s 2001 shut-off?

We are basically living in a political Truman Show” arguing left and right with our pre-baked shrink wrapped narratives provided to us by Madison Avenue (the mean Iraqis threw the babies out of the incubators). The real terrorists wear little American flag lapel pins. Well dressed sociopaths (suitopaths) who hypnotize the masses with monopoly money. Evil’s cover story equals “I was just doing my job”.

Scott,
I’m 39 years old, and I remember that day very well. There were several newscasts on that day which reported at least two and possibly 3 unexploded bombs in the Murrah Building. One reporter even went out on a limb to state that once those unexploded devices were analyzed, it would be fairly easy to determine who built it. But after that day, you never heard of those bombs again.
I’ve been listening to you for almost 2 years now. I love your show. I’m not sure why you stay so far away from the 9-11 issue. Maybe someone is pressuring you not to bring it up as a topic on your show. I have a hard time believing you don’t find anything suspect about that day.
Anyhow, here’s a great presentation by Richard Gage. I’m sure you know who he is.

There is obviously a lot to know about this. I think you made some good points in Features also.
