"With this new book, David Ray Griffin establishes himself,
alongside Seymour Hersh, as America's number one bearer of unpleasant,
yet necessary, public truths."--Richard Falk, Professor of
International Law, Emeritus, Princeton University
Griffin shows that the final report of the 9/11 Commission, far
from being the definitive account of 9/11 it was supposed to be,
is riddled with omissions and distortions. Rather than genuinely
asking how the attacks were able to succeed, the Commission merely
defended the account provided by the Bush administration and its
Pentagon. Any evidence that challenged this account--by suggesting
instead that the attacks were enabled by the Bush administration
itself--was either distorted or simply omitted.
"In this masterful sequel to The New Pearl Harbor, David
Ray Griffin unveils a disparity between official 9/11 "spin" and
independently researched 9/11 fact so glaring as to suggest the
possibility of a constitutional crisis unlike anything our country
has ever known. . . . [This book] seriously--and alarmingly--challenges
the independence, impartiality, and thoroughness of the 9/11 Commission."--Burns
H. Weston, Professor of Law Emeritus, University of Iowa
"David is a national treasure. His first book was great.
This book . . . is even better."--Meria Heller (www.Meria.net)

"
This is a painstaking and devastating demolition of the lies transmitted
by The 9/11 Commission Report. . . . Griffin's book will strengthen
the cause of those who believe that the best defense for democracy
is not blind fealty to leaders, but the truth."--Peter Dale
Scott, author of Drugs, Oil, and War "Through an incisive and carefully documented review, David
Ray Griffin skillfully refutes the findings of the 9/11 Commission.
. . ."--Michel Chossudovsky, Professor of Economics, University
of Ottawa
"David Ray Griffin's latest book amply explains why the 9/11
Commission can now be placed in the same category as the Warren
and Tower Commissions as dissemblers and varnishers of the truth."--Wayne
Madsen, syndicated columnist, investigative journalist
"This careful deconstruction of what many have called "The
9/11 Omission Commission" skewers, with academic rigor, both
the official 9/11 story and its associated cover-up. David Ray
Griffin's is one of the finest minds at work in the pursuit of
truth about 9/11."--Barrie Zwicker, Canadian Media Critic
and Commentator
"It
is rather obvious that the 9/11 commission aimed more to bring
closure than to investigate the anomalies surrounding
the event. . . . For those who still seek the truth and hope for
a serious investigation of the facts, Griffin's careful analysis
of the report is essential reading."--John B. Cobb, Jr., Professor
of Theology, Emeritus, Claremont School of Theology.
