Saturday, February 13th, 2010 At the risk of sounding immodest, Jonathan Kay is writing his Harper Collins book because of me. He tried taking on 9/11 Truthers back in ‘08 and I eviscerated him in an email. Well he showed up for some “field research” back in September and he didn’t seem interested in talking to anyone or seeing anything at all. He seemed more concerned with checking Facebook on his Blackberry and taking phone calls from his wife. Point is, the guy’s a douche and I called him out on it. I wrote this (see below) to him after he Facebook messaged me asking about my impressions of the WeAreChange conference in 9/11/09. Feel free to use it if you like. And I would be happy to reappear on Alex’s show to talk about this guy and his book. -Dallas Hansen * * *
Hemingway and Orwell fought in the Spanish Civil War, but Jonathan Kay couldn’t handle an afternoon in the rain. He’s writing a book titled “Among The Truthers: Alternate Theories of 9/11, And The People Who Believe Them,” but couldn’t sit through their speeches. Didn’t really do any interviews. Came to Manhattan for the eighth anniversary and didn’t talk to Luke Rudkowski, founder of WeAreChange, a 23 year-old from Brooklyn who more than anyone else in the world is famous solely as a 9/11 Truther. Didn’t talk to Nick Carangi, the 25 year-old Temple University sociology grad student who founded Philly 9/11 Truth and received an infamous visit from the Secret Service. Didn’t hear from Craig Fitzgerald, a 14° Scottish Rite Mason. Ditto for WeAreChange co-founder Tom Foti, whose moving speech at One Police Plaza implored the NYPD to hear out the brother or nephew or friend who approaches with 9/11 evidence. Jonathan Kay never made it to International News Net studios at 56 Walker to find out why they were working with the Truthers, so he didn’t see the speeches and workshops, or the music. Didn’t see the surreal spectacle of video clips of WeAreChange’s best confrontations mixed to dark techno with samples like Luke telling David Rockefeller “You will never have a New World Order,” or take note of the unlikely persons on the dance floor. Didn’t even make it through Richard Gage’s talk, where he announced he’ll be doing a public presentation at the Japanese Diet, and of course he didn’t talk to William Rodriguez, Immortal Technique, Daniel Sunjata, and other prominent Truthers who appeared at the conference. Wasn’t around to be invited to Manny Badillo’s Brooklyn loft. Didn’t talk to Anastasia Churkina, who’s been reporting on the Truth Movement for Russia Today. Nor did he probe into Luke Rudkowski’s employment with them. Instead, through words and actions, award-winning journalist Jonathan Kay exuded indifference toward and even disdain for his subject, his only expression of excitement arriving when an anti-Semetic angle emerged, though he never dug deep enough to meet Amir of WeAreChange NYC, who might have had much to say about anti-Semitism in the Truth Movement, having been in Air Force Intelligence as a member of the Israeli Defense Forces. You didn’t get your money’s worth out of this trip, and neither did Harper Collins. You were never Among the Truthers—rather you acted as though their ideas were a contagion from which you could stay immune only so long as you stayed in your ivory tower. Where, apparently, the kitchen serves Wendy’s bacon cheeseburgers and McDonald’s. Mr. Kay, your 9-to-5 style of mousepad journalism disappoints me. Let’s hope your manuscript doesn’t too.

February 13th, 2010 at 9:01 am there is nothing like looking at no facts, and hearing no opinions to form a book around- It looks like this guy was taught how to do his job in the same school the IPCC went to. Reply

February 14th, 2010 at 10:21 amMartin Timothy,…the photos at the link you provided are entirely new to ALL of us, so can you please give us the source of where you got these photos. If they prove to be genuine, and I have no reason to doubt them, they are more stunning proof of the lies we have been told regarding the Pentagon explosion. This is entirely new material for 911 truth movement and must be examined by experts in images and photography of this nature. I for myself see no airliner whatsoever, only the flaming streak of a missile, and NO PLANE! PLEASE FOR THE SAKE OF THE TRUTH GETTING OUT, GIVE US YOUR SOURCES! Reply
February 14th, 2010 at 11:40 amMartin T,
It seems to me that if these images are real, they would have
had to have been almost certainly taken by military/ law enforcement.
These photos would also have to be still frames taken from a video.
Do you have the rest of the video? If this is NOT a hoax, please release
all the info you have regarding these photos, who took them, and how
you acquired them. All The Best,

February 14th, 2010 at 12:01 pmI totally agree Quinny. Martin T needs to be more open re these photos, otherwise they will go nowhere or cause others to lose interest in seeking truth. If they are genuine Martin T you have a veritable bombshell and another key to solving 911 once and for all. So cmon buddy, step up to the plate ! Tell us the origin of the photos and how you came across them, OK? Think of the families of the 911 victims and how justice must be done. Dont play around with this thing my friend. If you dont want to reveal who you are for the moment thats fine too, At least you could get in contact with Pilots for 911 truth. They have experts on that site who can verify what you have found.

February 14th, 2010 at 1:17 pmI pulled them out of my arse!!!!!
February 14th, 2010 at 12:22 pmThese images were examined and discussed recently on Pilots for 911 Truth. Conclusion was they photo-shopped fakes. No source and nobody adding any new info. Fake. Shills are everywhere trying to discredit and disinfo 911 Truth, so watch out people Reply
February 14th, 2010 at 1:26 pmYeah well I came to the conclusion that Pilots for Truth is a false flag op run by Jews, whose purpose is to obscure real truth and replace it with the Talmudist version. Sure they will be indicted as capital traitors, then put on trial ..then gassed I’d say, as long as they were found guilty that is .. I don’t want anyone years down the track telling anyone I gassed a Jew without he got a fair trial.
February 13th, 2010 at 2:08 pm Sounds to me like the guy is just writing a book to sell. If it gets too radical (by saying what is actually going on) it will be relegated to “conspiracy theories” and it won’t get in B&N. The biggest problem is it won’t be rated “fiction.” Could be wrong though, I don’t know much of the history of these guys or their feud… Reply
February 13th, 2010 at 5:23 pm There are more Jonathan Kay’s out there. Every once in awhile, I will pick up a book and start to read it and wonder where the author has been for twenty years. It will be interesting how Kay’s next book turns out and whether Harper Collins swallows all his horsepiss. Reply
