Peter Dale Scott

For 25 years, academics have, with very few exceptions, maintained a shameful refusal to examine the scientific evidence regarding the events of 9-11.

As David Ray Griffin and Peter Dale Scott wrote in 2006, the discovery that the official narrative about 9-11 is a lie should be a discovery of the first importance, and yet thus far the mainstream media and most members of the academy have refused to explore the evidence that has been presented for the alternative narrative.

That remains true 25 years after the event.

As van der Peel writes, no member of the academic intelligence base will tolerate, let alone initiate, serious research into the backgrounds and implications of the war on terror.

She was one of the greats.

She used to have David Ray Griffin, Peter Dale Scott on her show, all these characters, 9-11 stuff.

Yeah, she was one of the only, I mean, with that kind of, because, you know, obviously it had quite a reach, right? And it wasn't just, you know, whatever, you know, Athens, Georgia, you know, local college station.

I mean, it's had national reach, and she was 9-11, all kinds of stuff, you know, she got into.

But Jack Crichton is a very important actor, and that's a little detail that I wanted to get correct.

So, um, you can read more about Jack Crichton in Peter Dale Scott's books, I believe most notably, uh, Deep Politics and the Death of JFK and the book Dallas '63.

The time period that we're talking about now is mostly the '80s Iran-Contra era, but I wanna build up to it and pick up where I left off, uh, the last time around, which was with Watergate and the post-Watergate investigations.

Uh, and that takes us into the Jimmy Carter years, and there's a little bit of overlap here because some of the things that I was talking about did happen under Carter, uh, as I'll try to explain.

The Hasenfus plane crash is part of how this gets exposed.

And then a, a Lebanese newspaper also, uh, publishes an article that details a lot of the scandal.

And, uh, Peter Dale Scott, who's one of the top experts on Iran-Contra, uh, w- even worked on, uh, in Washington, as we'll discuss later, in hearings related to, or investigations related to Iran-Contra scandals.

Uh, he b- he believes that that was, uh, was planted by Zionists, uh, by Israelis, essentially.

John P. Roche, a special assistant to Lyndon B. Johnson, characteristically compared conspiracy theory gospel to a priesthood of marginal paranoiacs, a view convenient for Johnson, who was the most likely mastermind behind the JFK assassination, as Chapter 5 details.

The assassinations in this book very clearly fall into the category of what Peter Dale Scott termed deep events in American history that are a product of secret political intrigue and designed to alter the political status quo.

Scott coined the term deep state, referencing a hidden force in government that adopts extra legal methods in league with organized crime and advances the interests of big corporations and Wall Street.

The deep state uses its control over police forces, court system, coroner's offices, media, and the education system to ensure impunity for its crimes.

So I use that as an example because...

The deep state, as you call it, which, you know, that's a term that was actually coined by Peter Dale Scott, who was a lefty in the wake of 9-11.

So for this to be some kind of like, oh, MAGA, you're so dumb using that term.

It's like, no, there is a deep state.

Yeah, around 2009, 2010, and I was, uh, reading a lot of that kind of stuff.

You know, I was reading, uh, a lot of Peter Dale Scott and, you know, reading a lot about just, like, the Banana War, just all the 20th century kinda, kinda Cold War stuff and, um...

And I read through it back then.

But I'll tell you, it's one of those books that, um, I think the last 15 years that have passed since that time have really given the book, um, a, a, a new flavor in a way because, um, you know, I read it back then and I enjoyed it.
