The 9/11 Truth Movement
Backed By Two Presidential Candidates in 2024
Two presidential candidates back the 9/11 Truth movement in 2024 and the New York Fire Department demands a new investigation for controlled demolition.
The website Christchurch Truth that covers the 2019 New Zealand terrorist attack provided a link to Third Eye Spies of the CIA and a lead for an investigation that ultimately led to an investigation of the 9/11 attack.

Why The 9/11 Truth Movement is Strong in 2024
Eye-witness testimonies of hundreds of people have been excluded from the official investigation. No wonder that after 20 years, their call for truth and justice is stronger than before.
Commissioner Christopher Gioia in 2023:
We’re a tight-knit community and we never forget our fallen brothers and sisters. You better believe that when the entire fire service of New York State is on board, we will be an unstoppable force.
As part of an investigation after several events in 2019, I came in contact with US politician Carol Brouillet, who ran for Congress for Green Party of the United States and who founded 9/11 Truth Alliance. She answered the following to my questions:
With regard the truth about the 9/11 attack. Would it be possible to share your motive to be involved?
I became a political activist in the wake of watching the film JFK and doing research on the CIA. I was outraged and felt I should do something to challenge a policy which tortures, kills, and terrorizes people.In the case that the government has performed the attack, what would (or should) it imply?
I think it implies that our government IS a terrorist organization.
Paranormal Assisted Investigation
As a philosopher of morality and a decades-long defender of free will, I founded GMOdebate.org in February 2022 to defend animals and plants against eugenics.
For decades, I have questioned the foundations of science and the idea that mind is produced by the brain, through a critical philosophical blog on psychiatry, Zielenknijper.com.
As part of the blog I investigated several cases of corruption, including pedophilia in Justice (chapter …^).
Paranormal Dream of the Future
When I was 15 years old, I had a paranormal dream that showed more than 20 years into the future, including an attack on my home in 2019.

Events in 2019
In 2019 there were several events that ultimately caused me to investigate the 9/11 attack.
As can be seen on the website Christchurch Truth, the 2019 New Zealand terrorist attack is called a PsyOp.
(2019) Christchurch Truth The PsyOp that deceived a nation. Source: chchtruth.com (PDF backup)
I initially reported about the events in 2019 through the website PsyReporter.com.
The Christchurch terrorist attack, of which the website Christchurch Truth provides coverage, was followed by a terrorist attack in Utrecht, the Netherlands, the city where I lived, that was linked to each other by the president of Turkey (chapter …^).
(2019) Attack in Utrecht: the Erdogan connection? Source: Arab News
According to various sources, the terrorist attack in Christchurch was a staged event. The perpetrator is said to have entered New Zealand from Turkey.
In November 2019, out of the blue and accompanied by absurd corruption of Justice, my home in Utrecht was attacked, causing me to start an investigation into the background and motive of that attack (chapter …^).
The picture of the Mickey Mouse story The Phantom Blot
matches the situation that played out, illustrated by a confession by the perpetrator two months into the attack that people of Justice were behind that attack, while stating that he had grown to admire me (chapter …^).
Paranormal influences forced me to investigate the attacks in 2019. For example, on the day before the terrorist attack in Utrecht I had an intense paranormal vision that showed that the attack was planned and agreed upon by NATO (chapter …^).
Events Between 2015-2019
There had been more absurdly extreme paranormal events related to both NATO and Turkey.
In 2015 I had a paranormal vision related to the 2015 NATO emergency meeting called by Turkey (chapter …^) that was followed by the murder of one of my childhood friends several days later (chapter …^). I endured an extreme paranormal perception of that event, at bright daylight, that almost caused me to drop a tray with coffee onto the ground.
The only possible reason that the 2015 NATO emergency meeting was related to me, is my sincere attempt to seek attention for missing coverage for honest reporters and whistleblowers from India regarding Air India 113 and the lying by India's ministry about the MH17 airplane attack (chapter …^), which dated shortly before that meeting.
One day in 2015, when I was cycling through the city Utrecht, I had a paranormal vision of the head of NATO accompanied by a team of barbarian agents that sought for a way to attack me in the city (chapter …^).
Also in 2015, two NATO people would visit the hotel of my sister, while I was staying there, which was followed by an absurd event that indicates that the two NATO people had evil intentions (chapter …^).
Also in 2015, out of itself, fortune 500 GMO farmers bank
Rabobank, headquartered in Utrecht, invested into my pioneering technology business with the clear intent to sabotage my business. That sabotage ended in late 2018 and chronologically preceded the attack on my home in 2019.
In 2019, several months before the attack on my home, I had a paranormal dream of a neighbor who worked at Rabobank in Utrecht (described here) that showed that Rabobank planned the attack on my home. The neighbour left his home in a rush before the attack in November 2019.
In 2016, a popular WordPress optimization plugin with 20,000 professional users of which I was author was mysteriously banned (chapter …^).
The ban was preceeded by a flood of nonsensical negative 0-⭐ reviews that was followed by an absurd slander attack by a moderator, of which a user wrote:
Who knows what's really going on at WP. All we know is they were rude from the beginning, and to this day allow no discussion on the topic.
Users on WordPress weren't allowed to talk about the event.
What it was all about and how it is related to the 9/11 attack becomes evident in the next chapters.
The 9/11 Attack and The War in Iraq
Following the September 11, 2001 attacks, president George W. Bush declared a war on terrorism
that provided a motive for the invasion of Afghanistan on October 2, 2001 and Iraq on March 20, 2003.
There was a strong and growing global movement against the war. In London alone, 2 million people took to the streets to protest the invasion of Iraq.
Before the war in Iraq, I noticed a plea by a group of scientists in an article in Scientific American that argued that the war could be prevented by helping to solve the extreme water crisis that Iraq was facing.
The water crisis in Iraq was the primary cause of conflicts.
Instead of helping to solve the water crisis, NATO intentionally destroyed the water infrastructure by which 1.5 million innocent people, among which 565,000 Iraqi children, would die.
UN specialists speak of a war crime and intentional genocide

Award-winning journalist John Pilger created a documentary about what happened that he named Killing the Children of Iraq
.
Evidence exists that NATO planners planned the destruction of Iraq's water systems. A documentary film by award-winning journalist John Pilger uncovers details.
Thomas Nagy, a professor at George Washington University, said the planners knew the destruction would would kill millions of Iraqi civilians.
The lack of access to clean drinking water led to widespread public unrest and protests in Iraq, causing the emergence of the Islamic State (IS) and its violent terrorism campaign against the government.

Motive for 9/11 Attack: Formenting War
In July 2023, commissioners of a New York Fire Department (NYFD) called for a new investigation of controlled demolition (chapter …^):
Whereas, the overwhelming evidence presented in said petition demonstrates beyond any doubt that pre-planted explosives and/or incendiaries — not just airplanes and the ensuing fires — caused the destruction of the three World Trade Center buildings, killing the vast majority of the victims who perished that day.
It is well known that lack of access to drinking water causes an escalation of conflicts and terrorism, and there is evidence that the water infrastructure in Iraq was intentionally destroyed, which caused the death of 1.5 million innocent people, among which 565,000 Iraqi children.
The 9/11 of Norway
and The War in Libya
The investigation revealed corruption of what locals in Norway call the 9/11 of Norway
that concerns corruption behind the war in Libya.
Norway had rejected the 2011 NATO bombing coalition against Libya, which the Netherlands had already done shortly before, and was independently leading peace talks that could have dragged several countries into anti-war policy.
Norway was close to a prevention of the Libya war, until a suspicious terrorism event took place in 2011, after which the Prime Minister of Norway became the head of NATO, and after which Norway dropped the most bombs on Libya of all countries.

Many questions about the 2011 terror attack in Norway are unanswered.
- Eye witnesses testified that there were multiple shooters. They also clearly describe the person that they had seen.
- Just 48 hours before the bombing in Oslo, police units were engaged in terrorist bombing exercises near what would later be 'ground zero'. Special elite police unit concluded training for near identical scenario just minutes before the bomb attack.
During the Cold War, NATO carried out terrorist attacks in European cities under the name Operation Gladio, for which left-wing groups were falsely blamed. The attacks were intended to create an atmosphere of fear.
9/11 Truth Movement
US politician Carol Brouillet, who ran for Congress for Green Party of the United States and who founded 9/11 Truth Alliance, replied the following to my questions:
[Show all questions and my reply]In the case that the government has performed the 9/11 attack, what would (or should) it imply?
Politician:
I think it implies that our government IS a terrorist organization. While, we are mere citizens; we should not condone or support its more murderous activities. Although, I think the guns are now being pointed at us.
There are many serious organizations that question the 9/11 attack.

Movement Still Active In 2024
The 9/11 Truth movement is still gaining new prominent leaders after 20 years. In 2023, presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy demanded 9/11 Truth
.
Was 9/11 an inside job?
Vivek Ramaswamy: I don’t believe the government has told us the truth. Again, I’m driven by evidence and data. What I’ve seen in the last several years is we have to be skeptical of what the government does tell us. I haven’t seen evidence to the contrary, but do I believe everything the government told us about it? Absolutely not. Do I believe the 9/11 Commission? Absolutely not.

Several months before in 2023, presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. also questioned the 9/11 attack publicly. He said strange things happened
during the collapse of the World Trade Center and that he doesn't buy the official explanation
.
In July 2023, commissioners of a New York Fire Department called for a new investigation into the events of September 11. On July 24, the board of commissioners voted unanimously in their call for a new investigation into the attacks, based on the following:
Whereas, the overwhelming evidence presented in said petition demonstrates beyond any doubt that pre-planted explosives and/or incendiaries — not just airplanes and the ensuing fires — caused the destruction of the three World Trade Center buildings, killing the vast majority of the victims who perished that day.

A few months before the attack on my home in 2019, as described in chapter …^ , Google persistently showed a remarkable ad on my phone for a tiny local newspaper of a far away town that I am in no way affiliated with, which reminded me of political corruption that I had reported about almost a decade earlier.
Political Extortion and Euthanasia in Psychiatry ('the Dutch Way') Source: Zielenknijper.comThe story is directly related to my blog's involvement to uncover pedophilia in the government.
Dutch minister Els Borst planned to expose a pedophilia ring in the government and was murdered by a psychiatric patient. According to sources, she was murdered by the secret service (AIVD), where she worked herself in the past.
The minister was an elderly woman and an active advocate of free choice to end life, while my critical blog Zielenknijper.com at the time actively counter-argued euthanasia in psychiatry. Essentially, the minister was the primary opponent of the critical blog, on behalf of free choice for euthanasia for a mental wish.
Pedophilia (raping of children) by judges and other people in Justice Source: GMODebate.orgBesides corruption related cases, a primary topic that the blog philosophically addressed was eugenics and Nazi ideology.

Before 2019 I never investigated NATO. I didn't publicly question the intentions of the Prime Minister of Norway, who would become the head of NATO, until after the attack on my home in 2019.
As can be seen in an email that I sent on July 15, 2015, my participation with regard the investigation of the MH17 airplane attack had been decent.
The Indian government was caught spreading lies and the main stream media in India reported about it.

How is it possible that this evidence is missing from the knowledge of a professional investigative reporter? ... When I search on your website, 0 results are found ...
An early motive to personally attack me, even before the MH17 airplane attack, must have originated from the Prime Minister of Norway. That implies that the motive is likely related to eugenics and Nazi ideology that I critically addressed using the blog Zielenknijper.com.
NATO Military Alliance
Starting around 2011, there had been paranormal events, including absurdly profound paranormal visions, that caused me to start to question the intentions of the former Prime Minister of Norway, who would become the head of NATO.
NATO People in the Hotel of my Sister
There were strange events such as two foreign NATO people visiting the hotel of my sister while I was staying there.
The boyfriend of my sister studied at an elite management school in the US and stayed at home with politicians in Washington. He made an extra special connection with each guest in the small 6 room hotel.
One night around 2015, through paranormal perception, I heard my sister confirmatively responding to her boyfriend that the two NATO people had the intention to kill me, and the next day the boyfriend threw me out of the hotel by shouting extremely loud in the hallway of the hotel, which was an absurd event.
Paranormal Vision of the Head of NATO
One day around 2015, when I was bicycling in the city of Utrecht, I had a paranormal vision that the Prime Minister of Norway with a team of angry barbarian agents were looking for a way to attack me in the city, causing me to go into quarantine again, and that caused me to consider why the Prime Minister of Norway - a far away place, from my then perspective - might have anything against me.
I was author of Zielenknijper.com, a critical blog on psychiatry, thus I thought that it might be about a difference of opinion with regard psychiatry, which seemed like a strange motivation for the barbarian anger that I had perceived. I did not know yet then, that he had become the head of NATO.
The reason that I knew the Prime Minister at all in my mind, was because I had sensed a strange unyielding hostility from him after the 2011 terrorist attack. I hadn't thought anything of it, other than my then consideration that I might not understand the culture of Norway. Subsequently, the perpetrator was admitted to psychiatry, causing me to maintain a journalistic watch.
Murder of a Childhood Friend
There are indications that NATO murdered one of my childhood friends.
On July 28, 2015 there was a NATO emergency meeting called by 🇹🇷 Turkey, and I sensed in a paranormal vision (I saw the intention of some top people flocking together) that some people at that event wanted to do something against me
.
8 days after the NATO event, one of my childhood friends drove off the road with his motorcycle.
On that day I had a very strong paranormal vision in which a vision of my childhood friend came towards me with a great force. In retro-perspective I had seen much more that day by which I knew for certain that something had been done to him. I also thought to have noticed the face expression of someone that attacked him (a derogatory perspective towards my friend).
I found the obituary via Google some time later, and read what had happened to him.
- On July 15, 2015, I actively sought awareness for the pilots of Air India 113 and the lying by India's ministry, regarding the shooting down of airplane MH17
- On July 28, 2015, a NATO emergency meeting was called by 🇹🇷 Turkey. I sensed at the time that some people at that event
wanted to do something against me
. - On August 5, 2015, one of my childhood friends drove off the road with his motorcycle.
Because of the paranormal vision, I initially did a quick search and found a page on the website of NATO with a poster advertising an event in the city on the date on which my friend drove off the road.
About My Friend Johnny Bouwman
When I saw Johnny for the first time since a decade in the city Arnhem around 2010, the reflection that came to my mind after he walked away, was major ass tough guy
. He was one of the toughest persons in the city, in one of the toughest cities of the Netherlands.
I became friends with him when I was in love with a girl and after he started dating her. The girl became one of my best friends and I then spent some time growing up with him.
While others looked away on a beach in the village Oosterbeek near Arnhem, when Johnny was intimidated and physically attacked by three people from the Turkish mafia Gray Wolf, I stood up for him and ended the situation. Johnny was grateful for that and gave me one of his body builder shirts.
When his girlfriend was sexually assaulted at a fair in Arnhem by dangerous Moluccans, I was the only one who confronted the Moluccans in disco The Opera (now The Level), after other friends of her who I had approached, looked the other way.
When his relationship with his girlfriend ended, Johnny was very happy that I was there for him.
It is a very difficult situation for me. I want to communicate that I would have prevented it if that were possible. My history with Johnny shows that I would have.
Terrorist Attack in Utrecht
Some time later, on March 18, 2019, there was a terrorist attack in the city Utrecht on 24 October Square, a town square that refers to United Nations Day, the founding date of the United Nations.
On the day before the attack, I had an intense paranormal vision of the NATO.
Initially, I decided to stay away from it, because in the paranormal vision I had noticed that the attack was planned and agreed upon.
Later, after the attack on my home in 2019, I started an investigation.
The perpetrator of the terrorist attack in Utrecht was Turkish.
I discovered that the president of Turkey shared a video of the terrorist attack in Christchurch, New Zealand a few days before the attack in Utrecht.

MH17 Airplane Attack
There are indications that NATO was involved in the MH17 airplane attack. For example, NATO denied to provide access to satellite imagery, which is suspicious.
I was forced to investigate the attack due to lack of attention for honest reporters and whistleblowers from India.
In 2021, a journalist of Veterans Today published an article that stated that the MH17 attack was a false flag operation.

Attack on my Home in Utrecht
In 2019, shortly before Christmas, my home was attacked and I was subjected to a display of absurdly profound corruption of the judiciary.
During the attack, all contents of my home were destroyed, I was subjected to unnatural slander, violence, extreme and absurd corruption of Justice, police intimidation and I would ultimately lose my home due to corruption by the Judiciary of Utrecht.
The perpetrator of the attack confessed to me that people of Justice were behind the attack. The national Legal Counsel (Juridisch Loket) forwarded a personal threat email from a psychiatric patient, which cannot have been an accident.
Details of the attack are available on my old critical blog Zielenknijper.com.
The critical blog helped to unmask pedophilia in Justice (the head of Justice raped children) and investigated political corruption behind the legislation of euthanasia in psychiatry.
Pedophilia (raping of children) by judges and other people in Justice Source: GMODebate.orgIn summary, the attack came out of the blue and was absolutely absurd. The police intimidation, the violence, the slander and the corruption of the Judiciary, were unnatural.
Investigation of the Attack
I started an investigation into the background of the attack and the root cause was traced to GMO (eugenics).
It all started with a national cola TV ad after I reported about GMO in Coca Cola.
Shortly after that TV ad there was a flood of nonsensical negative 0-⭐ reviews for a popular WordPress optimization plugin that was followed by a banning of the plugin after a moderator performed an absurd slander attack to which I had responded decently.
Subsequently, Rabobank, a fortune 500 bank with its headquarter in the city Utrecht, invested into my business to sabotage it and that directly (chronologically) preceded the attack on my home in Utrecht.
Rabobank is known as farmers bank and is dedicated to GMO.

I reported about the fact that Coca Cola attempted to hide that they used GMO in their products, which led me to the discovery of atrocities performed by that company.

In Turkey allegations of intimidation, human rights abuses and the beating of union activists abound.

I had been following a critical reporter from New York, Lori Harfenist (www.theresident.net), who has been an inspiration for me. She reported about GMO in after which I learned that Coca Cola tried to hide it from the public, which caused me, in the form of the critical blog Zielenknijper.com, to become interested.
The movie The Resident (2011) with Hilary Swank is potentially inspired by her.

In 2016, shortly after a national cola TV advertisement as described in chapter …^, a popular WordPress optimization plugin with 20,000 professional users was banned, which became a true mystery

Moss Ball Ban Source: GMODebate.orgLearned Through Injustice?
As author of Zielenknijper.com, a critical philosophical blog on psychiatry, I had experience with people who were victim of sometimes the most grave injustice, such as enforced electro shock therapy.
By critically speaking for those people - by showing a path of intellect and reason - it enabled those people to keep true to an ethical nature, and (ultimately) to feel better than the evil doers that caused injustice to them.
The blog helped prevent victims of injustice from seeking violent revenge.
Reason and intellect is a higher good than war and revenge.
I am author of two philosophical forum discussions on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that received thousands of replies and that have been viewed over 100,000 times.
The topics discuss a film by Adam Sandler that shows that Israelis and Palestinians can flourish together side by side.
The Israeli-Palestinian conflict Source: onlinephilosophyclub.comIn those topics I have been making a case for the argument that philosophy should be held responsible.
I provided an example of MacGyver, who, in an attempt to stop a young gang member in a developing culture of hate from seeking revenge for the murder of his brother, said You are smarter than this
, and with that incited a Lévinasian eschatological vision in him that broke the hate and cycle of violence.
An intelligible path is a path that humans rather subscribe to than war and revenge.
ChatGPT: MacGyver's statement
You are smarter than thiscould be seen as an example of a Lévinasian eschatological vision, as it encourages the person to rise above the cycle of violence and revenge, and to choose a more intelligent and peaceful path. This aligns with Lévinas' view that eschatological vision allows for a transcendence of the totality and a relation to infinity.
🕊️ Philosophy of Peace
The Lévinasian Eschatology
Emmanuel LévinasFrench-Jewish philosophy professor Emmanuel Lévinas (University of Paris), an icon of Western philosophy, argued that of peace there can only be an eschatology: The eschatological vision breaks with the totality of wars and empires. It institutes a relation with the infinity of being which exceeds the totality.
The theory of Lévinas implies that peace requires a pro-active effort, what Albert Einstein once intended to communicate with his statement: intellectuals solve problems, geniuses prevent problems
Throughout his life, in addition to his scientific work, Einstein worked tirelessly for truly global peace.
In 1940, Einstein wrote a manuscript titled Theory of World Peace
that preceded the founding of the United Nations.
We believe in a world beyond war, where sustainable peace is truly possible.Source: One Earth Future (oneearthfuture.org)
Lévinas wrote in his major work on peace Totality and Infinity: Peace opposed to war is peace based on war
An eschatological vision of peace is peace by itself
or beyond the word peace
. An eschatology isn't about peace but about what lays beyond (beyond the totality of the Universe).
When people can be shown an authentic path of intellect and reason, which MacGyver was able to do through his personal character and his relation to the individual, and which philosophy in general is able to do, people will rather choose that path.
That is the foundation for my argument that philosophy should be held responsible.
A Lévinasian eschatological vision can enable people who are entangled in a developing culture of hate and revenge, to break the cycle of violence and fight
for a path aligned with intellect and reason, a higher good for humanity and beyond.
As opposed to an easy choice, it might be hard and require persistent dedication and a fight, for which the eschatological vision would grant the foundation for a purpose, a purpose of such a nature, that people will persevere and win, despite the condition or reality
that they are facing.
Lévinas wrote in his major work on peace Totality and Infinity:
The first
visionof eschatology (hereby distinguished from the revealed opinions of positive religions) reveals the very possibility of eschatology, that is, the breach of the totality, the possibility of a signification without context.
