    New York 9/11 ballot initiative

    To Jon:

    First, if you feel that this is too divisive a topic and choose to delete it, I'll understand.

    If you're willing to discuss it, I would be very interested to hear your opinion about the New York City 9/11 ballot initiative. Do you fully support it? Reject it? Support it with reservations?

    As I'm sure you're aware, it's highly controversial among some 9/11 Truth movement oldtimers, for reasons I won't go into here, but which I'm sure you've heard.

    Personally, I'm inclined to support it, but with some reservations.

    I'm a bit concerned about the selection of commissioners. I'm glad to see Lorie Van Auken on the proposed commission, but I question the qualifications of some of the other proposed commissioners. (I won't name names.) I would have preferred to see Paul Thompson on the commission, plus some mainstream investigative journalists such as Philip Shenon, Peter Lance, and Gerald Posner.

    Nevertheless, for whatever flaws it may have, it seems to me that the NYC 9/11 ballot initiative is our best shot at an independent investigation at the present time.

    As far as I can tell, none of the 9/11 Truth activists who have been griping about the ballot initiative are making any effort to organize a better concrete alternative. If someone were to start serious work on a better alternative, I would be happy to support it instead of the ballot initiative. But no such alternative seems to be forthcoming.

    What do you think? Do you support the NYC ballot initiative, despite whatever flaws you may perceive?

    I believe that if we give the choice to the people rather than leave it up to the "Powers That Be," we have a better chance. I do support the idea of the NYC Ballot Initiative.

    Shame you can't watch this.
