The Late John Judge on 9/11

The Late John Judge on 9/11

Talking Stick TV (2002)

Film Review

I was fortunate to attend this talk on February 13, 2002, just five months after 9/11. This was the first we learned 9/11 was an inside job – when Judge informed us of the Air Force stand down order (not to intercept the 747 heading for the Pentagon).

Prior to his death in 2014, Judge chaired the JFK Assassination Review Board. The latter was an independent organization created under The President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992. It was the Review Board’s responsibility to review the six million pages of classified documents the Act forced the Clinton administration to release. The law was a response to massive popular pressure following the release of Oliver Stone’s 1991 film JFK.

As Judge explains in the video, prior to 9/11 he was working with congress woman Cynthia McKinney to establish an expert panel to lobby for the release of 600,000-700,000 pages of classified documents related to the Martin Luther King assassination.*

Judge goes on to talk about Secretary of State Colin Powell informing Middle East counterparts in July 2001 about US plans to invade Afghanistan, owing to the refusal by the Taliban (which the US had installed to run Afghanistan) to agree to the proposed Unocal oil pipeline pipeline connecting the Caspian Sea to the Persian Gulf.

Judge also speaks about Al Qaeda not representing Islam, and how most terrorism is phony terrorism sponsored by Western powers to forward their own political agendas.

*The panel was cancelled after 9-11. By law these records are scheduled to be released in 2026.
