Did anyone else get this e-mail?
Given this clarification, I now list the omissions and
claims of The 9/11 Commission Report that I, in my critique of
that report, portrayed as lies:

1. The omission of evidence that at least six of the
alleged hijackers---including Waleed al-Shehri, said by the
Commission probably to have stabbed a flight attendant on Flight
11 before it crashed into the North Tower of the WTC---are
still alive (19-20).

2. The omission of evidence about Mohamed Atta---such as
his reported fondness for alcohol, pork, and lap
dances---that is in tension with the Commission’s claim that he had
become fanatically religious (20-21).

3. The obfuscation of the evidence that Hani Hanjour was
too poor a pilot to have flown an airliner into the Pentagon
(21-22).


He has 115 lies from the 9/11 report listed:

2. I don't get the first paragraph. Is he saying that what he once listed
as lies by the 911 Commission are now NOT lies because of some clarification?

Or is he saying that he is clarifying the 911 Commission report to point out their lies?

4. Explanation at the link
says that he is not making a distinction between explicit and implicit lies (omissions, neglectful investigation, etc.). They're still inconsistent or misleading, but he's ignoring the origin or intent of them for the purpose of listing them.

3. Exactly correct.....
<snip>

"I will close by pointing out that I concluded my study of what I came to call “the Kean-Zelikow Report” by writing that it, “far from lessening my suspicions about official complicity, has served to confirm them. Why would the minds in charge of this final report engage in such deception if they were not trying to cover up very high crimes?” "

Even if one of those points of omission are proven to be true, that would raise enough of a question to reopen the investigations and get to the bottom of the whole thing. I believe that most is not all of these points have credibility and need to ALL be officially investigated.

5. Sounds like a love letter from Karl. He loves to smash Democrats
into little pieces.
