Relationship to 9/11 truth? Do we really think Americans would allow, authorize, justify, or even overlook the torture of children in OUR name without the shock and awe of the 9/11 attacks and being perpetually pounded with the graphic memory? Remember when Bush legal advisor John Yoo was asked whether it's legal to crush the testicles of a child? (see video below)
(Human rights legal scholar and professor Doug) Cassel: If the president deems that he's got to torture somebody, including by crushing the testicles of the person's child, there is no law that can stop him?
Yoo: No treaty
Cassel: Also no law by Congress--that is what you wrote in the August 2002 memo... Yoo: I think it depends on why the President thinks he needs to do that.
Clearly, the President thought he needed to do a LOT of things in response to the 9/11 attacks.

STILL, 9/11 is the reason. NOW, it is time to powerfully demand the truth from the mouths of those who continue to use the attacks as an excuse for anything and everything!
