I only just received a couple of the books I’d ordered for my current article, so it will have to wait until next week. Meanwhile, I might as well highlight a couple of my recent podcast interviews, both of which seemed to go reasonably well.

Back in September, I was interviewed for an hour by Michael Harris, with my discussion focusing on two of my recent articles, the first dealing with the true origins and history of the ADL and the second with the hidden history of the 2008 Presidential race between Barack Obama and John McCain.

For those interested in a more in depth discussion of these topics, here are the links to the articles in question:



Then a couple of days ago, I was interviewed for two hours by Ethan Ralph on his Killstream podcast, and I discussed quite a number of different issues, including my analysis of the JFK Assassination, the 9/11 Attacks, the origins of the ADL, and the Holocaust.

Here are links to recent articles of mine addressing some of these topics in greater depth:



One additional topic that came up during the second podcast interview was the 1995 Oklahoma City Bombing, the largest terrorist attack on American soil to that date, which destroyed the local federal building, taking 168 lives. I briefly mentioned that there seemed to be a great deal of evidence that the official story was false, as I’d discussed in a section of an article I’d published in late 2022:



Different individuals prefer different sources of information. I typically rely upon books and articles, which tend to provide the greatest depth and breadth of material, and I had discussed some of these in my article.



But others prefer video presentations, and I recently came across an excellent one on that 1995 incident. The documentary provides on-camera interviews of key eyewitnesses who directly contradict the officially established narrative, as well as the testimony of several experts explaining its extreme implausibility. In addition, numerous media clips were provided in which journalists and government figures, even including the governor of Oklahoma, declared that unexploded bombs had found inside the federal building, a reality totally at odds with the claims the attack had been committed by Timothy McVeigh, a deranged right-wing terrorist.


Produced in 2011 and originally distributed by ITN, the documentary can be freely watched online and I’d highly recommend it:



I watched that documentary a couple of weeks ago and afterwards the same website recommended several others. One of these was on the 9/11 Attacks, and a few days ago I viewed as well, the first I had ever watched on that topic.



Focusing on the destruction of the World Trade Center towers in New York City, it provided interviews of dozens of experienced professionals, including construction engineers, architects, and demolition experts, all of whom persuasively declared that the official 9/11 story made no sense, and that the buildings could not possibly have collapsed merely from the fires set off by the planes that hit them. In addition, numerous eyewitnesses reported hearing explosions inside the towers just before they fell, while academic chemists found strong residual traces of military-grade explosives.


This documentary was produced in 2012 by the Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth organization, and I’d also highly-recommend watching it online:



Although I’d been aware of all these facts for years and discussed many of them in my articles, seeing so many sober-minded and experienced professionals make their assessments on-camera obviously lends a great deal of additional credibility and weight to these dramatic conclusions, which I’d recapitulated last month on the 22nd anniversary.
