         911 Victim Ellen Mariani Open Letter To The POTUS
Thursday, 27 November 2003, 1:36 pm
Press Release: Ellen Mariani Lawsuit    

        Open Letter To The President Of The United States 

        Mr. Bush, 

        This ''open letter'' is coming from my heart. I want you to know
that I am neither a Republican nor a Democrat and that this is not an
attempt to ''bash the Government''. 

        You Mr. Bush should be held responsible and liable for any and
all acts that were committed to aid in any "cover up" of the tragic
events of September 11, 2001. As President you have a duty to protect
the American people. On September 11th you did not instruct your staff
to issue a nationwide emergency warning/alert to advise us of the attack
on America. We had to receive the news of the attacks via the news
networks. 

        In the months leading up to the attacks you were repeatedly
advised of a possible attack on American soil. During your daily
intelligence briefings you were given information that had been
uncovered that the very real possibility existed that certain
undesirable elements would use commercial aircraft to destroy certain
"target" buildings. You never warned the American people of this
possible threat. Who were you protecting? 

        When you took no responsibility towards protecting the general
public from the possibility of attack, you were certainly not upholding
the oath you spoke when you took office. In that oath you pledged to
uphold the Constitution of the United States of America. 

        On the morning of the attack, you and members of your staff were
fully aware of the unfolding events yet you chose to continue on to the
Emma E. Booker Elementary School to proceed with a scheduled event and
"photo op". While our nation was under attack you did not appear to
blink an eye or shed a tear. You continued on as if everything was
"business as usual". 

        In the days following the attacks all air traffic was grounded
and Americans, including myself, were stranded wherever they had been
when the flight ban was imposed. I was stranded at Midway Airport in
Chicago, unable to continue on to California for my daughter's wedding.
Imagine my surprise when I later found out that during this "no fly"
period a number of people were flown out of the country on a 747 with
Arabic lettering on the fuselage. None of these people were interviewed
or questioned by any local, State or Federal agencies. Why were they
allowed to leave and who exactly was on that flight. We know for a fact
that some of the people on the flight were members of (or related to)
the royal family of Saudi Arabia and members of the Bin Laden family.
Were these people allowed to leave because of the long-standing
relationships that your family has with both families? 

        It is my belief that you intentionally allowed 9/11 to happen to
gather public support for a "war on terrorism". These wars, in
Afghanistan and Iraq, have not accomplished what you stated were your
goals. Why have you not captured Osama Bin Laden? Where are Saddam's
weapons of mass destruction? All that has happened is a bill that is
passed before Congress for 87 billion dollars to rebuild what you
ordered blown to bits. As an American who lost a loved one in the "war
on terror" I do pray and support our troops who were sent to Afghanistan
and Iraq by you. These troops have and will continue to die for your
lies. As an American I can make this statement as it appears that
associates of your family may stand to prosper from the rebuilding of
Afghanistan and Iraq. 

        Mr. Bush the time has come for you to stop your control over us.
Stop blocking the release of certain evidence and documents that were
discovered by the 9/11 Investigation Commission if you have nothing to
hide proving you did not fail to act and prevent the attacks of 9/11.
Your reason for not releasing this material is that it is a matter of
"national security". When in fact I believe that it is your personal
credibility/security that you are concerned with. You do not want the
public to know the full extent of your responsibility and involvement. 

        After 9/11 the Patriot Act and Homeland Security Act were
passed. Both of these allow the government to tap your telephone, search
your home, and seize whatever they feel they need to do on a whim. They
can do this without a judge's review or a warrant. I feel that this is
in direct conflict with our rights as stated in the Constitution and
Bill of Rights. 

        We the families of 9/11 victims need to have answers to the
following questions: 

        1. Why were 29 pages of the 9/11committee report personally
censored at your request? 

        2. Where are the "black boxes" from Flight 11 and Flight 175? 

        3. Where are the "voice recorders" from Flight 11 and Flight
175? 

        4. Why can't we gain access to the complete air traffic control
records for Flight 11 and Flight 175? 

        5. Where are the airport surveillance tapes that show the
passengers boarding the doomed flights? 

        6. When will complete passenger lists for all of the flights be
released? 

        7. Why did your brother Jeb (the Governor of Florida) go to the
offices of the Hoffman Aviation School and order that flight records and
files be removed? These files were then put on a C130 government cargo
plane and flown out of the country. Where were they taken and who
ordered it done? 

        It has been over two years since hundreds of our lost loved ones
"remains" have still yet to be identified and their remains placed in a
landfill at Fresh Kill. We want our heroes brought back and given a
public and proud resting place where we all can pay our respects and
honor them. These innocent people never had a chance as they were taken
from us on that sad September Day. 

        In the court of public opinion Mr. Bush, your lies are being
uncovered each day. My husband, all of the other victims and their
families and our nation as a whole, has been victimized by your failed
leadership prior to and after 9/11! 

        I will prove this in a court of law!

Widow's Bush Treason Lawsuit 

Posted By: mailbag for W. David Kubiak 

Date: Tuesday, 2 December 2003, 6:26 p.m. 

9/11 MEDIA ALERT: Press Ignores 9/11 Widow's Bush Treason Suit 

9/11 IN NEVERNEVERLAND

Widow's Bush Treason Suit Vanishes in Blink of Media Eye 

by W. David Kubiak 

"The decision 'not to do the story' appears to be multiplying all  over
the nation." -- Fred Powledge, ACLU. 

"Whoever said `no news is good news,' was BADLY misinformed."  -- Dan
Rather.

Think you're already amazed, alarmed or appalled enough by the state of
US journalism today? Chew on this a while and think again. 

Grieving New Hampshire widow who lost her man on 9/11 refuses the
government's million dollar hush money payoff, studies the facts of the
day for nearly two years, and comes to believe the White House
"intentionally allowed 9/11 to happen" to launch a so-called "War on
Terrorism" for personal and political gain. 

She retains a prominent lawyer, a former Deputy Attorney General of
Pennsylvania, who served with distinction under both Democrats and
Republicans and was once a strong candidate for the governor's seat. 

The attorney files a 62-page complaint in federal district court
(including 40 pages of prima facie evidence) charging that "President
Bush and officials including, but not limited to Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice,
Ashcroft and Tenet": 

1.) had adequate foreknowledge of 911 yet failed to warn the county or
attempt to prevent it; 

2.) have since been covering up the truth of that day; 

3.) have therefore abetted the murder of plaintiff's husband and
violated the Constitution and multiple laws of the United States; and

4.) are thus being sued under the Civil RICO (Racketeering, Influence,
and Corrupt Organization) Act for malfeasant conspiracy, obstruction of
justice and wrongful death. 

The suit text goes on to document the detailed forewarnings from foreign
governments and FBI agents; the unprecedented delinquency of our air
defense; the inexplicable half hour dawdle of our Commander in Chief at
a primary school after hearing the nation was under deadly attack; the
incessant invocation of national security and executive privilege to
suppress the facts; and the obstruction of all subsequent efforts to
investigate the disaster. It concludes that "compelling evidence will be
presented in this case through discovery, subpoena power, and testimony
[that] Defendants failed to act and prevent 9/11 knowing the attacks
would lead toa?| an 'International War on Terror' which would benefit
Defendants both financially and politically." 

Press releases detailing these explosive allegations are sent out to
3000 journalists in the print and broadcast media, and a press
conference to announce the filing is held in front of Independence Hall
in Philadelphia on November 26th (commemorating the end of the first
futile year of the independent National 9/11 Commission). 

Imagine the world-churning implications of these charges. Imagine the
furor if just one was proved true. Imagine the courage of this
bribe-shunning widow and an eminent attorney with his rep on the line.
Then imagine a press conference to which nobody came. 

(Well, more precisely, imagine a press conference at which only FOX News
appears, tapes for 40 minutes, and never airs an inch.) 

Now imagine the air time, column inches and talk show hysteria that same
night devoted to the legal hassles of Michael, Kobe, and Scott Peterson,
and divide that by the attention paid to our little case of mass murder,
war profiteering and treason. (OK, this is really a trick question
because no number divided by zero yields any answers whatsoever, which
evidently in this case is the result preferred.) 

When you present documented charges of official treachery behind the
greatest national security disaster in modern history and the press
doesn't show, doesn't listen, doesn't write - just what in fact is
really being communicated? That despite all the deaths, lies, wars, and
bizarre official actions that flowed from 9/11 there's actually nothing
there to be investigated at all? That addressing desperate victim
families' still unanswered cries for truth is not a legitimate
journalistic concern? 

That news will now be what the corporate media say it will be, so drink
your infotainment Kool-Aid and kindly shut up? 

(While the 9/11 blackout is the most flagrant sign of current media
dysfunction, it hardly stands alone. Where, for example, was our free
and fearless press when Pentagon powerbroker Richard Perle confessed to
a London audience last month that yes indeed, our war on Iraq was
illegal as hell? He calmly explained that "in this case international
law stood in the way of doing the right thinga?| [it] would have
required us to leave Saddam Hussein alone, and this would have been
morally unacceptable." 

(Guardian/UK, 11/20/03) And what news have we seen of the thousands of
Depleted Uranium deaths and birth defects now desolating Afghanis,
Iraqis and our own Gulf War troops? And whose looking into the $1.2
trillion the Pentagon admits is "missing" or the half trillion in
laundered funds now propping up our banks? And how many times have you
seen it reported that unbid Iraq contracts have pushed the worth of VP
Cheney's 433,333 Halliburton stock options to $26 million plus? But to
return to 9/11, the funny business has just begun. If you thought press
performance after JFK's death was a cynical farce, you ain't seen
nothing yet.)

A few years back Harold Evans of the London Sunday Times, observed that
the challenge facing American newspapers "is not to stay in business --
it is to stay in journalism.'' As corporations' authoritarian,
profit-driven consciousness comes to dominate both media and governance,
you can expect a lot more serial celebrity scandals and even less news
on the way things work or anything that really counts. 

There is a clear method and message in this obscurantist madness. All
this media consolidation and tightening control is strategically aligned
with deregulation, privatization, social program-gutting deficits and
free trade regimes. They are all convergent tactics to enforce
corporations' full spectrum dominance over democratic humankind. If your
progressive or conservative instincts bid you to arise against this
coup, standing with our 9/11 widow is a good place to start. Her name is
Ellen Mariani, her lawyer is Phillip Berg and their complaint is now
online at http://www.nancho.net/911/mariani.html. Read it and weep,
wail, or whack out a dozen letters to the editors around your town, but
for god's sake make some noise. When 9/11 bombshells fall silent in the
corporate media's forest it's up to us to make them resound.
