"9/11 Time for a Second Look"

Tuesday 14th April 2009 at 7pm

City University, Angel, London

(more details below)



Here is an important lecture by Professor David Ray Griffin (Co-director of of the Center for Process Studies at Claremont Graduate University, California), who is widely regarded as the most scholarly and credible academic to vocally criticise the official narrative of 9/11.


"...the evidence that the official story is false is now overwhelming. The only problem is to get people to look at the evidence. Once they are willing to do this, they quickly see that the official story simply cannot be true"


Griffin, who has published 7 books regarding the events of 9/11, remains a highly respected academic, and has won praise for his work on 9/11 by credible figures such as former Wall Street Journal editor Paul Craig Roberts, British MP Michael Meacher, prominent US historian Howard Zinn, and former CIA officials Robert Baer, Bill Christison, and Ray McGovern.

The view Griffin is forwarding is no longer an extreme minority position. TIME magazine recently described the view as "a mainstream political reality", and a recent poll by World Public Opinion revealed that only 57% of Britons cite a belief that 9/11 was Al Qaeda's sole responsibility. In the US various professional groups have started to pop up, such as Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, Religious Leaders for 9/11 Truth and Political Leaders for 9/11 Truth. It is in this context that Professor Griffin is asking us to take a second look at these events, which after all were a pivotal event in modern history and surely deserve proper scrutiny.

We hope you can make it along to what promises to be a thought provoking, challenging and enjoyable evening for all who attend. The event will be comprised of a lecture and a questions and answers session with Professor Griffin, and is the first date of a European tour taking in 7 countries over the next month.

Kind regards,

London Truth Action

“David Ray Griffin establishes himself, alongside Seymour Hersh, as America’s number one bearer of unpleasant, yet necessary, public truths.” - Richard Falk, Professor Emeritus of International Law, Princeton University; United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Palestinian Territories, United Nations Human Rights Council

Griffin makes a compelling case that the imperial practices of the American government have become a destructive force in the world. And he clarifies the biblical and theological basis for Christians to challenge the resurgent American imperialism that often claims divine blessing on its destructive actions.” - Richard A. Horsley, Distinguished Professor of Liberal Arts and the Study of Religion, University of Massachusetts, and author of Jesus and Empire: The Kingdom of God and the New World Disorder

“Never in modern history has an event of such cataclysmic significance been shrouded in such mystery. So many of the key facts remain unexplained on any plausible basis, and so many of the key actors have put forward contradictory accounts, only to be forced to retract or cover up later. David Griffin is a good person to guide skeptical readers through the miasma of spin and pretence that has clouded the truth.” - Michael Meacher MP, Minister of state for the Environment 1997-2003
