The Decline and Fall of Jim Fetzer
#26
Matthew Poe Wrote:Do you mean that its not your speciality

I think I remember Jim indicating something along those lines. There have certainly been enough researchers on Black Op Radio that have made passing acknowledgement of their dismay about the official 9/11 story while talking about JFK stuff.

There is an Israeli angle to 9/11 - curiously enough, Peter Dale Scott has a prescient chapter about Iran Contra figures maintaining ties to Israeli intelligence for future illegal activity in his late 80's Iran Contra volume - but Barrett inflates it to a religion, Fetzer dwells on it at unseemly length and the pair of them are like a nightmarish parody of conspiracy research.

Fetzer's current activities remind me just a little of Nico Haupt. Haupt did some good work years and years ago. Around 2006 he appeared in a New York Magazine article arguing and shouting at other researchers. Now Haupt argues the 'no plane' theory in public, holds up signs cheering the deaths of Americans to terrorism and seems curiously immune to police control whenever he pops up at Ground Zero starting physical fights with other protesters. There's a video online of some 9/11 activists in a suburban town holding up signs to cars as they drive by. Haupt amazingly found their location, had also brought a sign (arguing that the planes were magical holograms and the victims deserved to die, or similar), and paraded up and down the footpath to make the first group of activists look like nuts. A young female activist was interviewed and she said she was simply surprised that Haupt wasn't wearing a clown costume with a big red nose. I'm keen to read the second part of Jim's piece but it's fairly clear that Fetzer's work serves a different purpose than it did in the past.
