Did the CIA Murder Thomas Merton?

Revisiting a broadcast from September 2018, Graeme MacQueen and Elizabeth Woodworth introduce the work of the 9/11 Consensus Panel. Here is the information from when the program first aired: This is the first of a four-part series on the new book released by the 9/11 Consensus Panel, 9/11 Unmasked: An International Review Panel Investigation. From the book’s back cover: “9/11 Unmasked is the result of a six-year investigation by an international review panel, which has provided 51 points illustrating the problematic status of all the major claims in the official account of the 9/11 attacks, some of which are obviously false. Most dramatically, the official account of the destruction of the Twin Towers and World Trade Center 7 could not possibly be true, unless the laws of physics were suspended that day. But other claims made by the official account including the claims that the 9/11 planes were taken over by al-Qaeda hijackers, that one of those hijackers flew his plane into the Pentagon, and that passengers on the planes telephoned people on the ground are also demonstrably false.  The book reports only points about which the panel reached consensus by using the best-evidence consensus model employed in medical research. The panel is composed of experts about 9/11 from many disciplines, including physics, chemistry, structural engineering, aeronautical engineering, and jurisprudence.”  Panelists in the four-part series include Dwain Deets, Frances Shure, David Chandler, Graeme MacQueen, and Elizabeth Woodworth. In this first episode, Elizabeth Woodworth and Graeme MacQueen discuss the purpose, goal, and methodology of the 9/11 Consensus Panel,evidence of foreknowledge regarding the collapse of WTC 7,evidence of witness testimony of explosions in the World Trade Center Towers 1 and 2,evidence regarding steel recovered from WTC 7,photographic evidence regarding hijackers,and evidence of military drills on 9/11.Elizabeth Woodworth is a researcher and writer on both 9/11 and climate change science and activism. She co-founded the 9/11 Consensus Panel in 2011 with Dr. David Ray Griffin, with whom she has co-authored two books, Unprecedented Climate Mobilization, and 9/11 Unmasked: An International Review Panel Investigation. Elizabeth was head librarian for the British Columbia Ministry of Health from 1978-2002.  She also co-wrote with Peter Carter, Unprecedented Crime: Climate Science Denial and Game-Changers for Survival. Dr. Carter was on Progressive Spirit in June 2018. Dr. Graeme MacQueen received his Ph.D. in Buddhist Studies from Harvard University and became founding Director of the Centre for Peace Studies at McMaster University in Canada. Since his retirement he has carried out research on the War on Terror. In addition to his work on the 9/11 Consensus Panel he has been a co-editor of the Journal of 9/11 Studies and an organizer of the 2011 Toronto Hearings on 9/11.

Dr. Chuck Baldwin is the pastor of Liberty Fellowship in Kalispell, Montana. His sermons and columns are seen and read around the world at ChuckBaldwinLive. I spoke with him in May 2020 regarding the "Covid Psyop" and he returns to discuss the Scofield Bible and its influence on evangelicalism, particularly in reference to the "rapture" and other Christian Zionist doctrines. He believes that it is because of Christian Zionism that the vast majority of evangelicals cannot see this Covid Psyop for what it is.

My radio rumination from Sunday, September 5th, 2021. Freedom Loves Company. Revolution.Radio. Studio B, Sundays 8-10 pm Eastern.  An excerpt: "We are no longer trying to awaken the sheep. We are rousing the lions. Lions need rousing. In the scriptures, God, needs rousing. That is why the psalmists and the prophets would cry out to God to awake from slumber!  We need to awaken God and the angels. It sounds weird, but it is biblical. Cry out to God. God will hear.  We are rousing the lions, the angels, and God, to move from neutrality or from silence or from inaction to picking a side, speaking out, and acting out.  This will not end well if we do not defeat it. "

In this informative interview, Dr. Peter McCullough discusses Covid 19, early treatment, preventative care, and the problems with the government shutdowns, the need to stop mass vaccination, and more. This interview was first broadcast on September 5, 2021. Freedom Loves Company, 8-10pm Eastern, Revolution.Radio, Studio B. Here is his bio from his radio show on the America Out Loud Network. Dr. Peter McCullough is an internist, cardiologist, epidemiologist, in academic medical practice in Dallas, Texas, USA. He maintains ABIM certification in internal medicine and cardiovascular diseases. He practices both internal medicines including the management of common infectious diseases as well as the cardiovascular complications of both the viral infection and the injuries developing after the COVID-19 vaccine. Since the outset of the pandemic, Dr. McCullough has been a leader in the medical response to the COVID-19 disaster and has published “Pathophysiological Basis and Rationale for Early Outpatient Treatment of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) Infection” the first synthesis of sequenced multidrug treatment of ambulatory patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 in the American Journal of Medicine and subsequently updated in Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine. McCullough has 46 peer-reviewed publications on the infection and has commented extensively on the medical response to the COVID-19 crisis in The Hill and on FOX NEWS Channel. On November 19, 2020, Dr. McCullough testified in the US Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs and throughout 2021 in the Texas Senate Committee on Health and Human Services, Colorado General Assembly, and New Hampshire Senate concerning many aspects of the pandemic response. Dr. McCullough has had one full year of dedicated academic and clinical efforts in combating the SARS-CoV-2 virus and in doing so, has reviewed thousands of reports, participated in scientific congresses, group discussions, press releases, and has been considered among the world’s experts on COVID-19.

In this episode I replay interviews from the summer of 2012 on the theme of the future. James Howard Kunstler and John Michael Greer were my guests when my show was called Religion For Life. We learned about Peak Oil, economic contraction, the "apocalypse meme" and getting serious about the way we live. Is what these thinkers said nine years ago manifesting today? You decide.

James Howard Kunstler is a writer and a critic of culture. I first saw him in the documentary The End of Suburbia which came out in 2004. You can find it on-line but what you find is an edited version. The longer version is the version I recommend. I learned from that documentary something called Peak Oil. James Howard Kunstler wrote several books along that topic including The Long Emergency in 2005, and a series of novels set in a post-oil future including A World Made By Hand, Witch of Hebron, A History of the Future, and The Harrows of Spring. In March 2020, he published. Living in the Long Emergency: Global Crisis, the Failure of the Futurists, and the Early Adapters Who Are Showing Us the Way. Mr. Kunstler was on my radio show in 2012. At that time we discussed his book Too Much Magic: Wishful Thinking, Technology, and the Fate of the Nation. Nine years ago we discussed Peak Oil, "Happy Motoring," and the coming collapse of an unsustainable experiment in living. Now here we are in 2021. Is what James Howard Kunstler wrote about then manifesting itself now? In other words, to be more direct, is the Covid pandemic, outside of the virus itself, but the lockdowns, the closure of businesses, the economic contraction connected at all with Peak Oil, and perhaps other peaks? That is why I invited James Howard Kunstler to be on Freedom Loves Company.

In this episode I reflect on fear and why it is an unhelpful emotion in the battle against danger. I quote from Tessa Lena's excellent article, On Fear of the Monster and Fanaticism: Some Spontaneous Philosophy and make the case for acting from love, joy, courage, and freedom. This episode was broadcast August 22nd, 2021. Freedom Loves  Company, Revolution.Radio, Studio B.  Sunday, 6-8pm MT, 8-10pm ET, Midnight - 2 am GMT
