2006 represented a turning point for all 9-11 Truth Activists in that we saw several high profile “members” of the 9-11 Truth Movement escalate an already established campaign of Infiltration, Dis-Information, Ad-Hominem Attacks on serious researchers and activists, and other forms of Information Sabotage designed to discredit our work and relegate us to the dustbins of history.
As I witnessed the engineered break-up of Scholars for 9-11 Truth among many other COINTELPRO style tactics, I realized that the destruction of our movement from within could no longer be ignored. In February of 2007, I conducted a series of interviews focusing on this topic which included a frank talk with film maker John Albanese. If you haven’t done so already, please take the time to hear this important Special Report.
I was not the only one to take on this extremely important topic in an attempt to educate ALL activists on the reality of, and the history of COINTELPRO in the United States. Below is a short list of some who have taken the lead in educating YOU on the destruction occurring within our movement.
If you really care about holding accountable, those who are responsible for the crimes and cover-up of 9-11, you will educate yourself, and then take appropriate action to first, identify dis-information and its’ purveyors, and then work to expose, and then distance yourself from these people and their poisonous venom. This is not a game!
This week Visibility 9-11 visits the topic of COINTELPRO
in the 4th part of a new series on issues facing the 9-11 Truth
Movement. "Left gatekeepers", dis-information specialists, agent
provocateurs, and internet "trolls" all work to distract and/or
discredit the fine work of literally thousands of good and caring
Americans involved in 9-11 Truth. It is important to recognize the
history of things our government has done which has violated every
tenet of a free society.

Counter Intelligence Programs, or COINTELPRO, are one more example of
the federal governments' raping of our rights. These abuses were going
on during the 50's, 60's and 70's, and though they were prohibited by
the Church Committee regulations, they have not ceased. They are
alive and well within political groups which would seek to bring about
truth, justice and accountability to our government. 9-11 Truth is no
exception and activists need to educate themselves on the "dirty little
tricks" our government uses against our rights to free speech and
association. Only then, can we learn to recognize, and then address
the attempts which would tear down all of our hard work.

This broadcast features an interview with author and researcher Dr. William F. Pepper. Dr. Pepper gave a key note speech at the June 2006 conference, 9-11 Revealing the Truth; Reclaiming Our Future, where he warned the crowd of activists of the existence of COINTELPRO forces which would seek to destroy all of their hard work. During his work with Martin Luther King before his murder, Dr. Pepper saw first hand what agents of the state could do to a social movement.

"Visibility 9-11 with Michael Wolsey" is an excellent radio show. This program is well produced and offers information, analysis and viewpoints that are badly needed in our age of corporate controlled media. The most important feature of this great program is that it emphasizes the need for truth about the events of 9/11, a need that affects all people."
