New 9/11 truth documentary among 'most watched' on PBS this week

"9/11: Explosive Evidence - Experts Speak Out" is getting public attention and casting doubt on the scientific validity of the U.S. government's investigation into the WTC tragedy.
PBS is the first major network to air the program.

Just days away from the 11th anniversary of the World Trade Center tragedy and months away from the U.S. presidential election, a game-changing 9/11 documentary is ranking number three among "most watched" documentaries on PBS and number one among "most shared."
Available for free online August 18th - September 4th, the documentary could have a significant effect on public opinion. [Update: PBS has extended viewing indefinitely.]
Both the Republicans and Democrats, as equally staunch defenders of the official story, stand to be affected if the public's suspicion of government corruption grows deeper.

An earlier report on Digital Journal found that the claims made in the documentary can be verified by reading the government reports themselves. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the government agency charged with the investigation, did not provide any data -- no measurements or estimates -- of the mass or energy that would be required to bring down the buildings in about ten seconds. Normally a scientific report would present all the data that is used to construct a theory. The omission of data is a red flag to anyone familiar with scientific procedure. It appears that the investigators may have intentionally produced reports that the scientific community would reject.

According to the experts appearing in Explosive Evidence, the scientific community did reject the reports immediately, but it has taken a very long time for this message to reach the public. Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, the producers of the documentary, have been trying to educate the public for a number of years. The PBS broadcast of their work represents a major step forward for them.

While most people have probably heard that a scientific investigation has been conducted and that the building collapses were explained, few have probably looked at the NIST reports themselves. Links to the NIST reports can be found in the above mentioned Digital Journal article. NIST provides no data whatsoever on the actual collapse sequence itself.

The new attention to the issue could be significant for the U.S. presidential election. Prior to the publication of the reports in 2005 and 2008, almost half the population was suspicious of the official story of 9/11, according to several opinion polls. Since then the 9/11 tragedy has been used to direct the policies that have led to the enormous increases in military spending and to a loss of civil liberties in the U.S. and worldwide.

I'm not even sure I can wrap my mind around such a possibility.  I am certainly not discounting what the scientists are saying but just the very thought of someone or a group of someones inside the gov't having any part to play in this makes me physically ill.  I will be honest, I have never bought into any of the conspiracy theories, but then again, I have never seen any true evidence pointing in that direction.  I will watch..I just have to be in the right place.  If it ever comes out that there was complicity within the US gov't or any of it's allies, I cannot even begin to imagine what that will mean for your country.  It will be ripped apart at the seams I think.  I truly, with all my heart, hope that that is not the case.  I truly do.

I know how you feel. I have a relative who I dismissed for years-I would not hear him. It just doesn't make sense that our Government could be in on such a thing.
When I watched the documentary on PBS, I really wanted to dismiss it, but so many retired military people and conservative folk, top engineers and architects, on site Fire Marshall so many people are saying that the planes could not have done this on their own-it was a demolition on the inside. These are not radicals trying to hurt the Government these are scientists.
We don't know the whole story, the whys or any of that and I simply won't speculate, but the truth needs to come out, it is the only way to honor the dead and their families and to live in a democratic nation.
You know, I still find it hard to wrap my head around and I am almost sorry that I am convinced now. :(

Sigh, I entirely understand about needing to be in the right frame of mind before watching films like this one.
As you only know too well, it is horrendous what some people are willing to do to others.

As quoted from the dc911truth.org web site:

U.S involvement in foreign wars, fiscal crises, loss of liberties, growing class divisions, and assassinations fo American citizens are escalating-- all as a result of 9/11

Only by exposing the truth behind 9/11 and demanding accountability can we bring about real change toward peace.

I agree with you OH and this question is not meant to be argumentative, it is a sincere question. How is "growing class divisions, and assassinations fo American citizens are escalating-- all as a result of 9/11"  a result of the 911 tragedy. If you man the class divisions are a result of the failing economy which is due to the wars we got entangled in after 911, then I can see that but it is more indirect-could be they would have gotten into a war another way that would have resulted in a failing economy. I don't know, I am asking and thinking aloud and actually as I am doing this I can see the possible "rationale" for something like this-My God, would Bush/Cheney really cause something like this to happen to get the okay to attack Iraq? I cannot believe it, I actually feel a fluttering sort of heartbreak at such an idea. As bad as they were it is hard for me to comprehend such action.

All the "theroies" have been debunked many times over. There was no charges inside the towers, Bin Ladens family was not flown out the same day. CIA or whoever didn't have anything to do with it.

You can find anything you want if you look hard enough.

If you want to believe that it was an inside job or our government had anything to do with it I suggest you seek a mental health professional. If some find my statement insulting, good because it's insulting to suggest that our government had anythng to do with 9/11.

Im not much into these theories. I put this one in the same file as the one that suggested President Kennedy was an inside job or that obama is the antichrist.

As someone else said. I just cannot wrap my head around that possibility.What it is is a horrible tragedy anyway you look at it imo.
