Here is why I am a Buddhist for 9/11 Truth



Buddhism is a search for the truth beyond the realm of samsara, the cycle of birth and death. 9/11 Truth is a search for truth beyond the political samsara of Republican and Democrat rule. We can blame Bush for the events of 9/11, but since Obama has not prosecuted Bush for war crimes, he is just as guilty. For many more reasons, including the fact that both Republicans and Democrats prop up and give shelter to the federal reserve means they are two false sides of the same coin.



Buddhism is about teaching the cause and end of suffering. The cause of suffering is perpetual desires for material manifestations, which result in clinging to impermanent and painful experiences. Buddhism is not just about letting go of attachment but of also freeing one's self from future attachment and suffering. 9/11 truth is about teaching the cause of political suffering, which is the ongoing conspiracy to control events around the world, and the end of such suffering, which happens when the conspiracy is exposed, the truth comes out, and the public no longer trusts in the corrupt elite.



Buddhism is about kindness and compassion towards all beings, regardless of race, creed, or disposition. Buddhism sees all life as being trapped in the same samsara of suffering, and so there is ample room to sympathize with all beings, even animals and insects, because we are all trapped in this round of becoming. 9/11 truth, in turn, views all people as being trapped under the lies of the establishment, regardless of race or creed. 9/11 truth wishes to unite whites, blacks, Mexicans, Asians, Indians, rich, poor, celebrities, workers, the young, the old, the conservatives, the liberals. In effect, Buddhism is a universal truth that can be shared by anyone, and the same goes with 9/11 Truth. Out of compassion and kindness for all beings, we wish to share with them the truth that is liberating. By knowing the truth, one can liberate themselves from the lies, this is the aim of both the 9/11 truth movement and Buddhism.



Buddhism also teaches that one should investigate all things and come to their own conclusion. The Buddha has been known to tell his followers to disbelieve anything that is not true, even if the Buddha has said it, do not believe it just because a prophet has said it, but rather because you yourself have investigated it at length. In the same way, 9/11 truth is about searching for the truth, and coming to your own conclusions.



On September 11, 2001, we were told that Osama Bin Laden was behind the attacks. This was later changed to Khalid Sheikh Mohammed being the mastermind of the attacks. He was placed in custody and tortured a number of times in order to extract a confession, which is considered both dismissible in a court of law, as well as a war crime. While the mastermind is in custody, the media continues to ignore the documented evidence that suggests 9/11 was more than what the government had told us. Demolition experts and engineers attest to the towers being taken down by controlled demolition, FBI agents have been gagged or fired for releasing information to the public deemed too sensitive to national security, and 9/11 first responders are dying because they breathed in toxic air that the EPA said was safe to breath. Numerous contradictions regarding prior knowledge puts the Bush administration in a suspicious light, and Obama's compliance with Bush's war crimes puts the new administration in just as hot of water. While the U.S. economy is on the verge of collapse, the military industrial complex is receiving trillions of dollars for a never ending war, designed to have no end in sight, no goals, no objectives, and no living targets. What's worse is that private military contractors are receiving the majority of this money, while their employees dance along the fine line between civilian and military, in effect creating a double standard that puts them above the law. Private military contractors do not have to follow the strict rules of engagement the military must follow, because they are "private citizens" and yet, when a court order sues these individuals for war crimes, the state then says that these individuals are protected by the government because of the military connection they have to the United State's foreign interests. So in other words, they are above either civilian or military law. And while these mercenaries are killing people in foreign lands in the name of America, anyone who stands up to and opposes them are called terrorists, but it is clear who the real terrorists are.





The war on terrorism is in fact a fraud, designed simply to ramp up justification for an ever increasing police state. As a Buddhist, we must teach compassion to all beings, freedom from suffering, and the liberating Truth which puts an end to suffering. This police state conflicts with our views as a Buddhist, because it views others as potential terrorists. The war on terrorism conflicts with our views, because it ignites hatred between Christians and Muslims.



In Buddhism, greed, hatred, and ignorance are the three main evils that enslave the world. Since 9/11, we have seen a never ending greed coming from our politicians in the form of a desire for more and more power for the already over-inflated state. We have seen an unending supply of hatred in the military department, where a never ending war is psychologically turning our fellow human beings into trained killers, no doubt to be eventually used against America itself. And we have seen an appalling amount of willful ignorance coming from the establishment media who remains either silent of 9/11 truth, or worse, increasingly hostile towards it.



In Buddhism, they say that the material world of forms is empty, with no real inherent existence to it, but rather a series of interconnected moments perceived by our consciousness. 9/11 Truth states that the official story of 9/11 is empty, it's interconnected dots do not even make sense, and each aspect of the official story can be seen to be an illusion, a deception, which binds us ever more to the political samsara.



This is why I am a Buddhist for 9/11 Truth. Buddhism teaches the Noble Truth, the truth which is virtuous and of great merit, which frees all beings from suffering. In the same way, 9/11 truth is the merit of seeing through the lies and deceptions, and ending the fear mongering caused by the war on terrorism, and ending the suffering of America, caused by never ending wars, which has no doubt stemmed from the events of September 11.
