DEMAND FOR NEW
9-11 INVESTIGATION

On October 26, 2004, over 100 respected individuals and family members launched a massive drive calling for an immediate inquiry into evidence that suggest high level government officials may have deliberately allowed the attacks on September 11, 2001 to occur. An August 31, 2004 Zogby poll indicated that almost 50% of New Yorkers believe the government had prior knowledge and failed to act with 66% wanting a new 9-11 investigation.

Organizers of this effort call the recent 9-11 Kean Commission the "9-11 Omission Commission." They are focusing on twelve questions highlighting areas of "incriminating evidence that were either inadequately explored or ignored by the Kean Commission." These areas in question span from insider trading, funding of the hijackers to intense warnings from foreign governments that were ignored and inactive defenses around the Pentagon. This group is asking for four immediate things to happen: (1) an immediate investigation by Eliot Spitzer, Attorney General for the State of New York, (2) Congressional hearings, (3) media analysis and (4) formation of a "truly independent citizens-based inquiry."

According to their press release, below is a list of requests and questions.

1. Why were standard operating procedures for dealing with hijacked airliners not followed that day?
2. Why were the extensive missile batteries and air defenses reportedly deployed around the Pentagon not activated during the attack?
3. Why did the Secret Service allow Bush to complete his elementary school visit, apparently unconcerned about his safety or that of the schoolchildren?
4. Why hasn't a single person been fired, penalized, or reprimanded for the gross incompetence we witnessed that day?
5. Why haven't authorities in the U.S. and abroad published the results of multiple investigations into trading that strongly suggested foreknowledge of specific details of the 9/11 attacks, resulting in tens of millions of dollars of traceable gains?
6. Why has Sibel Edmonds, a former FBI translator who claims to have knowledge of advance warnings, been publicly silenced with a gag order requested by Attorney General Ashcroft and granted by a Bush-appointed judge?
7. How could Flight 77, which reportedly hit the Pentagon, have flown back towards Washington D.C. for 40 minutes without being detected by the FAA's radar or the even superior radar possessed by the US military?
8. How were the FBI and CIA able to release the names and photos of the alleged hijackers within hours, as well as to visit houses, restaurants, and flight schools they were known to frequent?
9. What happened to the over 20 documented warnings given our government by 14 foreign intelligence agencies or heads of state?
10. Why did the Bush administration cover up the fact that the head of the Pakistani intelligence agency was in Washington the week of 9/11 and reportedly had $100,000 wired to Mohamed Atta, considered the ringleader of the hijackers?
11. Why did the 911 Commission fail to address most of the 39 questions posed by the families of the victims, in addition to almost all of the questions posed here?
12. Why was Philip Zelikow chosen to be the Executive Director of the ostensibly independent 911 Commission although he had co-authored a book with Condoleezza Rice? Those who are demanding deeper inquiry now number in the hundreds of thousands, including a former member of the first Bush administration, a retired Air Force colonel, a European parliamentarian, families of the victims, highly respected authors, investigative journalists, peace and justice leaders, former Pentagon staff, and the National Green Party.

As Americans of conscience, we ask for four things:

1. An immediate investigation by New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer
2. Immediate investigation in Congressional Hearings.
3. Media attention to scrutinize and investigate the evidence.
4. The formation of a truly independent citizens-based inquiry.

The organization has also announced a press conference at Eliot Spitzer's Manhattan office at 2:00PM on Thursday, Oct. 28th where 9/11 family members and victim group representatives will file a formal complaint demanding the first criminal investigation of 9/11 events by the New York Attorney General.
