The National 9-11 Visibility Project formed in the Fall of 2003 by a group of concerned citizens in Seattle and Kansas City working to support the efforts of the 9-11 victims' families to obtain a complete and unobstructed investigation into the 2001 terrorist attacks. After learning about each other's activities, the Seattle and Kansas City groups joined together in organizing simultaneous street visibility actions the weekend after Thanksgiving. These public actions were so mutually inspiring and successful that a small group of us decided to launch a national organization/website to expand our efforts and promote the formation of similar 9-11 action groups in other cities...

For the past two years the Bush Administration has used the September 11th terrorist attacks as a pretext for the "War on Terror," stripping away civil liberties at home while waging "endless" war in Central Asia and the Middle East. Constant reminders of the possibility of "further attacks" along with color-coded "terror alerts" in the mainstream media exploit the 9-11 tragedy and frighten the public into accepting a dangerous agenda that threatens our democracy and national security, as well as the peace and security of the world.

The official explanation of September 11th along with its supposed implications (that a sinister and highly trained international network of Muslim terrorists, led by the still-at-large Osama bin Laden, pulled off the attacks and continue to pose a major threat to our security) continue to provide the primary rationale for this dangerous and destructive path. The truth of what really happened that day is thus too important to ignore.

Whether there was root-level Administration complicity or simply gross negligence, by forcing full government disclosure of 9-11 we can demonstrate to America that avoiding future terrorist attacks is as simple as the President and others doing their jobs. This takes the wind out of the sails of the Bush Administration argument for permanent war and civil liberties cutbacks, and advances the cause of peace and justice.
