MEDIA ROOTS – Abby & Robbie Martin discuss the age of information in the 21st century and philosophize what the ability to instantaneously connect with people worldwide has done to modern society; the subjectivity of "truth" as history becomes re-written with every passing generation; Alan Moore v. Frank Miller on Occupy Wall Street; The passing of the new National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that allows the indefinite detention of American citizens; the GOP race as a parody of itself with the candidates running and how voting for Ron Paul would be a fun social experiment if nothing else than to spoil the GOP primary.

I do not think anyone commited suicide over the "War of the World's" broadcast. A faked alien invasion is the idea behind would-be Project Bluebeam.

The U.S. military reportedly has the technology to project solid looking objects in flight from a moving plane. This would allow them to project an airplane around a cruise missile. It's entirely possible that no planes were used at the WTC. None were used in PA or at the Pentagon and it would be a poor strategy to carrying out their intended goals at the WTC. It would be very risky to actually attempt to fly a plane into the buildings. If they missed, it would look odd for the building to burst apart and collapse -- though that didn't stop them from impoding WTC7.

You're on the right track, don't resist digging deeper -there are greater truths to our state of affairs than what people want to consider. Continue to keep your mind open toward unconventional observations. Ignore thoughts of dread when sharing what you've allowed to be a component of your "reality-tunnel." All the best & Happy Holidays.
