Factual Evidence Contradicts the 9/11 Story
Consensus 9/11
The official account of the events of September 11, 2001, has been used:
- to justify the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, which have resulted in the deaths of over a million people; 1
- to authorize torture, military tribunals, and extraordinary rendition; and
- to suspend freedoms guaranteed by the American Constitution such as habeas corpus in the USA, and similar freedoms in Canada, the UK, and other countries.
