9/11 Investigation
On
the 18th anniversary of the September 11th attacks, first responders
called for a new 9/11 investigation.

September 11, 2001, was nearly 20 years ago, and after all this time, so many questions still remain about what exactly happened.

September 11, 2001, was nearly 20 years ago, and after all this time, so many questions still remain about what exactly happened.
It
is not socially acceptable to question the official explanation that
was given for the collapse of the towers and the other events of that
day, but now these questions are being taken more seriously.
However,
the rushed and poorly managed 9/11 commission report did not do an
adequate job at investigating the crimes, which left experts in a
variety of different fields with questions about the official story.
Many of these professionals belong to an organization called
Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, who have been pushing for a
new investigation into the attacks for many years.
This
July, they announced a major breakthrough in their fight for a proper
investigation. According to a press release published on the group’s
website, New York Fire Commissioners who were closely involved with
the events of that day, have called for a new investigation into the
9/11 attacks.
On
July 24, the Franklin Square and Munson Fire Districts voted
unanimously for a new investigation, citing “overwhelming evidence”
that “pre-planted explosives . . . caused the destruction of the
three World Trade Center buildings.”
The
resolution was written by Commissioner Christopher Gioia, and
received overwhelming support from Commissioner Dennis Lyons.
“We
have a memorial — a piece of steel from the World Trade Center with
28 holes where the nuts and bolts used to go. Every year on the 11th,
we put a rose in each hole for the 24 Nassau County firefighters and
four Franklin Square residents who died on 9/11,” Commissioner
Lyons said.
When
the vote was passed, the families of 9/11 victims showed up in the
audience to express their support for the cause and their gratitude
to the departments for making this issue a priority.
Commissioner
Gioia said that he expects support from other districts throughout
the city, and hopes that they will be passing similar resolutions in
solidarity.
“We were the first fire district to pass this resolution. We won’t be the last,” Gioia said.
This renewed interest in a proper investigation was sparked last year, when Geoffrey S. Berman, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, filed a petition on behalf of the Lawyers’ Committee for 9/11 Inquiry.
The
petition highlighted a large body of evidence about the World Trade
Center attacks, which was ultimately presented to a grand jury.
Berman’s
success through the courts gave many New York City firefighters hope
that they could finally get to the bottom of what happened on that
day, and find justice for the friends and loved ones who were lost.
