US Presidential Candidate says, “Israel Did 911” Zionists Control US Politics.

US_Presidential_Candidate_says___Israel_Did_911__Zionists_Control_US_Politics__-_YouTubeShock horror … a “US Presidential Candidate” endorses a fringe conspiracy stance.

Oh wait, things are not quite as advertised (but you already knew that, right?).

So the story here is that an anonymous poster has posted a YouTube clip that asserts this rather strange claim, and it consists of an interview of US Presidential Candidate Merlin Miller by PressTV.

Now you might be thinking “Who?” and also “Interviewed by Who?”.

OK, so here are the players in the game.

PressTV is the news organization of the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) [Yes really], so clearly these folks are not exactly your go-to guys for reliable unbiased coverage of anything at all. In fact, their stated goal is to counter “Western propaganda” from sites such as CNN or the BBC. How can I put this politely, well let’s just say that Press TV has been the subject of several controversies, so you can more or less dismiss anything they put out.

OK, now who the heck is US Presidential Candidate Merlin Miller?

If you have never heard of him, then do not beat yourself up for being out of the loop, because there is a reason for that lack of knowledge. He founded his 3rd way party in 2010, then stood for election as a US Presidential Candidate in 2012 and managed to pull in a staggering number of votes – 2,713 to be precise (yes really), or to translate that, of the 129,235,558 who voted, 129, 232,845 decided (quite rightly) “nope”. In other words, he represents 0.0%, but then that is no great surprise given his views that the US is “Zionist-controlled”, so yes what we have here is a Grade-1 gold-plated nut.

Now on to the “evidence” for his 9/11 claim. If you watch the actual clip, it is basically him saying, “well in my opinion …. ” bla bla bla, and that’s it, he simply asserts the daft claim and offers exactly zero evidence for this assertion. You do trust this “opinion” and the lack of any evidence is not going to bother you … right?

OK, so why am I writing about this?

It’s truly hilarious of course, and not just because of the original claim and who made it, but also for the fact that this YouTube clip is being cited several years later as “evidence” provided by a “US Presidential Candidate”. Ah, but why is it like this, why would somebody buy into the very idea and promote this “evidence”?

The chap posting it is a Muslim of course, so once you know that, then you no doubt have an immediate lightbulb moment. Clearly as a Muslim he has rather a lot of difficulty coming to terms with events such as 9/11; to cope and retain the belief intact, his mind will potentially rationalise such events in several ways.  The two most common variations will be as follows:-

  • It was a conspiracy by … zionists, the CIA, the NSA, the Bush Administration, some local woman’s knitting club, the illuminate, etc… OK, one of those I made up, but most have indeed been promoted and seriously believed.
  • They were not real Muslims, no “true” Muslim would do that, they are heretics from (insert name of your preferred Islamic sect that nobody likes here)

So why dismiss the actual evidence so easily?

Belief itself may be just an idea, but those that embrace such ideas have not done so at an intellectual level, but rather they have invested rather a lot of time and a great deal of themselves at a very deep emotional level. When faced with clear evidence that the consequences of such beliefs manifest some truly abhorrent stuff, the high degree of emotional investment completely trumps such a reality and so these rationalisations will quite naturally emerge to enable the belief to be retained.

One other observation, the chap posting the clip is a Sunni Muslim, and Press TV from Iran will generally promote a Shia perspective, one that would view any Sunni as a heretic … but all that gets kicked to the curb when Press TV has stuff that helps to retain the belief intact when confronted by the rather dire reality.

Letting Go 

Letting go can be challenging, it took me rather a long time. It should not be surprising that it is like this, in fact I do recall thinking to myself similar “They are not true …” thoughts at times, it is all part of how the mind protects an investment that has already been made.

Like many, my experience was one that felt rather akin to a deep sea diver slowly rising to the surface de-pressurising … until one day I broke surface and came to the realisation that I had finally let go. Looking back I now can see that I embraced rather a lot of irrational stuff and so it is now rather embarrassing that I truly believed … and yet if I managed to escape then there is hope for others as well.

  1. Promoting Science and Critical Thinking??? and then writing “so you can more or less dismiss anything they put out” Right, talking about CNN and BBC then? If you really did some critical thinking you would not put one and one together for most know how biased they are. Nice try though.

    • Claims presented without any evidence can and should be dismissed … welcome to rational thinking 101. If you wish to establish a claim as true, then you need to also cite evidence, that’s how it works.

      • Right on David ! I could NOT agree WITH YOU more ! Sincerely, I had enough of the utter nonsense coming from idiots that shamelessly will entertain and without a second thought to follow participate in the bullshit derived from diverse entities which portray their mental bankrupthcy onto others without a single shred of evidence to back up their hopelessly deranged claims,…

        • Now, if you could PLEASE bring forth any evidence that without a shadow of a doubt infringe Osama Bin Laden into these horrendous terror attacks, that would be great, thank you !
        • And secondly, if you do not mind, also bring into light anything that provide clear cut evidence of how the ”wide spread and intense fires” brought the WTC towers Down ?

        Because, strangly enough, the NIST report comes short of handing over anything that gives the slightest clue of WHY the Towers fell. And further more, the FBI has clearly stated on numerous ocassions that it exist NO hard evidence of Bin Laden being the culprit behind 9/11

        I’m awaiting your answer,.. in suspended anticipation.

Advocating the World Trade Center was destroyed by a controlled demolition.

        Military officers for 911 truth
        The members of U.S. Military Officers for 9/11 Truth, believe that there remains a pressing need for a new and independent criminal investigation into the events of 9/11/01. There is incontrovertible publicly available evidence since that day that the official account of the events is incomplete and fraught with errors. The 9/11 Commission Report failed to address many of the most important questions that were presented to the Commission by the victims’ families and other concerned Americans, and those that they did address were inadequately answered.

        Pilots for 911 truth
        Is an organization of aviation professionals and pilots throughout the globe who have gathered together for one purpose.

        Medical Professionals for 9/11 Truth
        The members believe that there is incontrovertible publicly available evidence since 9/11/01 that the official account of the events of that day is incomplete and fraught with errors. The 9/11 Commission Report inadequately answered, and in numerous cases even failed to address, many of the most important questions that were called to its attention. The blatant disregard of extensive compelling evidence that clearly refutes the official account raises rational suspicion of intentional deception by agents of the U.S. Government.

        Lawyers for 911 truth
        Many lawyers have concluded that the 9/11 Commission and other government examinations were wholly inadequate, and did not follow proper rules of evidence or procedure.
        They are demanding an end to the 9/11 cover-up, and a full investigation by unbiased people with subpoena power . . . and the courage to demand that the Constitution and rule of law are followed, and all guilty persons held accountable for their actions.

        • ALL that is asked fore is a new and unbiased investigation that is ”preformed by the people, envoked by the people, which works for the people. The events of 9/11 transformed global geopolitics and obvisouly will influence it years to come. Concerning the circumstances, the point of initiating a new investigation based on circumstantial evidence is bye far surpassed. It is an absolute necessity to review 911 if we are to make an end to the atrocities that day by day takes place on an increasingly higher scale, if measured in brutality and civil causalties. All supposedly done in the name of spreading democracy and equal human rights. Our corrupt leaders blatantly ignore every single written law and signed convention created to protect sivilians during the crisis of war.

        Their insane idea and design to create a platform built upon civic liberties by the use of bombs, granates made out of depleted uranium and other various forms of creative devestation, CAN NO LONGER BE TOLERATED !

I mean, why would any organization that consist of individuals wtih a certain degree of intelligence (however minute in this instance) and selfrespect (that was just to be kind) take on a dimwitted miserable inferior jerk like you, it sure beats me.

        And thank you for the affirmation, man. ( of reduced ability to think independently, that is,.)

  4. Why does Israel have a pure gold calf as a monument in the middle of the Negtev dessert? Why do their news commercials for I24 show a plane flying over NYC and circleing the new Freedom tower. The New Freedom Tower was built by an Israeli named Daniel Libskind and all the American contractors who bidded on that job were overlooked.

  5. Dov Zakheim owned a company called SPC that made remote controls for Jets. He was a dual israeli citizen who worked as a controller under Bush and he also wrote the infamous PNAC documentation along with William Kristol and Robert Kagan. They stated unless a catalyzing event like a “NEW PEARL HARBOR” happened expanding into the mideast would be very difficult. Gee, a “NEW PEARL HARBOR” did end up happening on 911. All wrapped up in a blue and white bow courtesy of dual israeli Zionist Neocons!

  9. Then explain why companies like Odigo, an Israeli company was forewarned???? That is from the FBI….Also the Five Dancing Israelis smiling , clapping, and filming the WTC two hours prior to the first attack is verified by police and FBI reports. Israelis were arrested in white vans with box cutters and explosives on 911. Also documented in police and FBI reports. There is plenty of non Muslim information to support that the Israeli Mossad did in fact pull off 911. Benjamin Netanyau was also a close aquaintance of Larry Silverstein who bought the lease on the WTC. How much more easier would it be for Mossad agents to wire the WTC for demolition? Israel did 911 not the muslims.
