Sometimes truth can only be found by looking at history. This Sunday the Critical Thinking Club, St. Paul Chapter, is looking at 9/11. Everyone is invited and the cost is $3 or $10. Here are the details: Location: Kelly Inn, Rice Street and I-94
Date: February 8, 2009
Time: 10:00 a.m. to Noon
Presenter: Michael Andregg
Subject: "9/11: Conspiracy, Complicity, or Coincidence."
Breakfast Buffet $10.00 Coffee only $3.00. We need to plan for the room setup and meal, so if you are going to attend, please RSVP to criticalthinkingclub@gmail.com.
We will review about 30 minutes of evidence regarding the fall of World Trade Center Tower #7 and of intelligence agencies active behind the scenes, both of which raise extremely serious questions about the official story regarding what exactly happened during 9/11/2001. We will then consider how consistent this, or any other evidence produced by the group, is with 4 hypotheses: two conspiracy theories (the official one and the critics' one), complicity and coincidence. |
Michael Andregg. a Peace and Justice professor at University of St. Thomas, is very good at looking at the world differently Wisdom has a longer time horizon than either intelligence or knowledge. It spans a greater scope of concern, and reflects a set of values infused into knowledge that include compassion as a core component. It requires a deep understanding of human nature, because it is only called upon during crises of human affairs. All the rest is details, which can distract from these cardinal truths.
With respect to issues of international security, this difference is exemplified by cases like Afghanistan (1979-89), Guatemala (1954) and Iran (1953-79). In each case focus on short-term, narrowly defined and mainly American national interests resulted in significant tactical victories. The long-term cost has been generating intense hatred of America among hundreds of millions of people worldwide. That hatred has diffuse military and economic consequences that are difficult to measure, but by any measure are profound...
Add some "useful" factors and you get practical knowledge, but the real prize is wisdom. REAL wisdom has to be cultivated also, assiduously, with conscious intent and lots of hard work. It involves refinements I have tried to outline here. With wisdom you may achieve your desires without destroying your army or laying other nations to waste. Sun Tzu said (17):
"Generally, in war the best policy is to take a state intact; to ruin it is inferior to this. To capture the enemy's army is better than to destroy it; to take intact a battalion, a company or a five-man squad is better than to destroy them. For to win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill." 3:1-3.
"If not in the interests of the state, do not act. If you cannot succeed, do not use troops. If you are not in danger, do not fight. A sovereign cannot raise an army because he is enraged, nor can a general fight because he is resentful. For while an angered man may again be happy, and a resentful man again be pleased, a state that has perished cannot be restored, nor can the dead be brought back to life. Therefore the enlightened ruler is prudent and the good general is warned against rash action. Thus the state is kept secure and the army preserved." 12:17-19.
Now those of you who still believe that there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and that we were not lied into the Iraq war. you are probably not emotionally ready to consider that many elements of 9/11 are a lie. For me, it comes down to why the third building WTC 7 collapsed, as fast as a falling rock, very cleanly into its own footprint, when it had been hit by NO plane and had very little damage, especially compared to nearby buildings? For those who like mysteries and mind puzzles, this is one of the best. If you have never questioned what happened at 911, you might start here or do your own research.
