Arizona state senator Karen Johnson (R-18) today delivered a letter to the office of U.S. Senator John McCain asking him to meet with a group of professionals to discuss the events of 9/11 when terrorists hijacked four airplanes and attacked the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.  One plane crashed in Pennsylvania.

 

Johnson recently announced her support for a new, independent investigation of 9/11.  “Even the chairman of the commission has announced his dissatisfaction with the report,” said Johnson.  “Anyone who reads the report can see that much was left out and that there are many discrepancies,” she said.

 

Johnson’s letter requests that McCain allow a meeting with Scottsdale professor, Blair Gadsby, who has been on a hunger strike outside McCain’s office on 16th Street for nine days.  Gadsby has arranged for architect Richard Gage and physicist Steven Jones to meet with McCain at his convenience to present evidence of controlled demolition gathered from the ruins of Ground Zero.  Gage is the founder of Archetects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth – a group consisting of hundreds of building professionals who want Congress to open up a new investigation of 9/11. Dr. Jones is a physicist who has done laboratory analysis of residue from the rubble of the World Trade Center and found evidence of explosives.  Both Gage and Jones believe that the Twin Towers and Building 7 collapsed as a result of explosives that were planted in the buildings before September 11. 

 

“Their evidence is very significant,” said Johnson, “because it wasn’t presented to the 9/11 Commission when they did their original investigation, and it completely changes the conclusions of the Commission.  There’s nothing wrong with going back and having another look.  If the Commission didn’t have all the facts, then so be it.  But we need to know what happened on 9/11.  Nearly 3,000 Americans died that day, and we deserve to know the truth about what happened.  It’s time to get to the bottom of this.”

 

Johnson and Hunger-Striker Gadsby want McCain to allow Jones and Gage to present the evidence to him.  “Senator McCain wants to be elected to the highest office in this country,” said Senator Johnson, “and he needs to know the truth about 9/11.  Finding answers to 9/11 should be a significant part of this presidential campaign.  The events of 9/11 led to this war with Iraq, to the creation of the Dept. of Homeland Security, to the loss of habeus corpus, the use of wiretaps, the push for a national ID, and other legislation that deprives us of freedom.  This is a very significant issue, and no one is discussing it.  Our presidential candidates need to talk about this.”
