Description

Unmasking the 9/11 Conspiracies. The 9/11 tragedy: official story? or Inside Job? Find out in this startling analysis by a leading investigative journalist. The official story regarding 9/11 is discredited.

That is the sobering conclusion reached by millions of Americans, all across the political spectrum, who have sifted through the evidence uncovered by hundreds of independent researchers. Many honest citizens are now forced, with sadness and reluctance, to make an almost unthinkable inference: Powerful US officials must have had foreknowledge of the planned attacks, and then acted from the inside to thwart efforts to prevent the 9/11 attacks, remove or cover up criminal evidence, hamper inquiries into what happened.

Were the horrific events of September 11, 2001 truly an inside job? This book will help you decide for yourself. In this work, world-renowned conspiracy theorist Jim Marrs makes a compelling case that 9/J 1 marks the intersection of several conspiracies at once, each based on overlapping political agendas. Support for his thesis comes from this sampling of the many disturbing anomalies that depart from the official story.

Jim Marrs is an award-winning veteran Texas journalist whose books Crossfire: The Plot That Killed Kennedy (Carroll & Graf) and Rule by Secrecy (Harper Collins: 2002) reached the New York Times bestseller list. Crossfire has sold 1.5 million copies since 1990, and its theories and findings were featured in Oliver Stone's movie JFK. The bestselling Alien Agenda (HarperPaperbacks: 1997) is Jim Marrs' comprehensive journalistic account of the ET phenomenon. Marrs started out with the Fort Worth Star-Telegram and owned several newspapers before becoming an independent writer.

Inside Job is the definitive journalistic account of the hidden role of the Bush administration in failing to prevent the 9/11 attacks. This book is the first in a two-part series on the events of 9/11 by Jim Marrs, long considered one of America's leading conspiracy researchers. The author provides heavy documentation of his findings, plus extensive appendices that include perspectives from families of 9/11 victims, and excerpts from the RICO Act lawsuit filed by 9/11 widow Ellen Mariani.

Preface

by Ellen Mariani

 This preface is an open letter to the American people, and it comes straight from my heart. I ask that you read this book and discover for yourself why the attacks of September 11, 2001, were, in fact, an inside job. Jim Marrs makes that case in this book; I intend to prove it in a court of law.

My husband, Neil Mariani, was killed in the attacks. He was a passenger on United Airlines Flight 175, the second of two planes to crash into the World Trade Center. On the awful day, my husband and I were on our way to our daughter's wedding in California from Boston's Logan airport, but we were booked on separate flights. We took separate flights because we were not sure at first that he could afford to fly to his stepdaughter's wedding. So sometime after I had booked my trip, we held a garage sale and raised just enough money to purchase a flight for him two hours later than mine. I will never forget the very last moment I saw him at the airport as I departed to my gate.

Today I am a bereaved widow, but I am a determined one. I am one of about 75 families that did not file for a settlement from the so-called September 11th Victim Compensation Fund, which consisted of taxpayers' money paid out directly from the US Treasury for the first time in history. Rather than accept about $500,000 to be paid to my husband's estate in compensation for my husband's life, I decided to retain my right to speak out.

I don't want this money; I just want answers.

By taking money from that fund, which I call the "shut-up and go-away fund," I would have given up my right to sue United Airlines and the federal government. Once I finally overcame my grief for Neil, which took many hard months, I came to believe that the only way I can get information about what happened to him is through the courts. I became the first family member of a victim of 9/11 to file a lawsuit against the government.

My suit is based on the RICO (Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organizations) Act, and it is aimed at proving that the September 11 terrorist attacks were no surprise to the government. I believe that many of the highest officials in the federal government were aware the attacks would take place -- in fact I am 100 percent sure that they knew.

It was difficult to get a lawyer to take my case. Absolutely no one dared take my case against the government. But then I found a courageous man named Phil Berg, a former deputy attorney general of Pennsylvania.

Our lawsuit is directed against President Bush and a number of other administration members. As Phil Berg has written in the Complaint, the suit "is based upon prior knowledge of 9/11; knowingly failing to act, prevent or warn of 9/11; and the ongoing obstruction of justice by covering up the truth of 9/11; all in violation of the laws of the United States." In addition to President George Bush, we named Vice President Dick Cheney, Attorney General John Ashcroft, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, and National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice as defendants, among others. The suit also names the Department of Defense, the Central Intelligence Agency, the National Security Agency, and the Council on Foreign Relations, among other agencies.

Phil Berg and I have agreed to allow Origin Press, the publisher of Inside Job, to print highlights of our Complaint in the appendices to this book. Please read this material, and also Ellen Mariani's Open Letter to Mr. Bush, which can be found at the website address shown below. And please support us.

I also ask you to read very closely the 23 Questions of the Family Steering Committee that are also reprinted in the appendices. These 23 queries are among the key questions I seek to have answered in a court of law -- and that Jim Marrs so effectively puts forth in this courageous book.

Our lawsuit cannot bring back my husband or the other victims of 9/11. But I believe it can and it will bring forward the truth and justice that is so badly needed at this time, in this country. When you read this book by Jim Marrs, you will surely see why.
