I cannot accept this book, nor can I accept many of the claims of the 9/11 Truther Movement. I have deep sympathy for them, as it is imperative to always raise the questions that they have from such national tragedies as 9/11. Furthermore in many ways I myself identify with what would be considered "their crowd." I believe that the assassination of President Kennedy was a conspiracy likely planned out with some level of cooperation by this nation's intelligence agencies. I also believe that Reagan's election in 1980 was also facilitated by these same agencies. But back to the book at hand. I cannot believe many of Marrs' theories as some are simply absurd, and easily explained: the possible use of an atomic bomb to level the WTC, the discredited insider trading at the stock exchange, and so on. But what really turned me off to this main premise is that one has to accept that George W. Bush and John Ashcroft were capable of being somehow in the loop on it. Dick Cheney I can certainly see, but again Ashcroft's and Bush's foolproof compliance to a set of organized plans would have to be assured. Neither Bush nor Ashcroft mind you would be properly capable of guarding a spare set of keys to a gas station lavatory much less keeping mum regarding a false flag operation. I certainly believe that they exploited 9/11 for their own political ends, which is in itself a hideous crime, but I cannot believe that they created it.
Marrs is a professional conspiracy theorist who sometimes goes off the track, but 90 percent of the time he raises serious doubts about the official version of events; e.g., the attack on the Pentagon. It's disturbing stuff, much of which seems to deserve a response. (His remarks on the 911 Commission and its resemblance to the Warren Commission are chilling to read because they are not off the mark in several ways.)
A top-notch analysis of 9/11. If I were to suggest only one 9/11 book, this is the one I'd recommend. Jim Marrs' research, synthesis, and writing are superb. Marrs' writing style is so readable, even in a relatively large book like The Terror Conspiracy Revisited the pages fly by.
Jim Marrs does a very deep dive into this work. He covers all the key phases surrounding the event; while pointing out inconsistencies to the official narrative. Especially important in the book are the Appendix and Conclusion section which is written by Barbara Honneger who is an expert on this event. Normally, I delete ebooks after I have read them. This one is a keeper and deserves a second read. Great work.
