The CIA’s sources and methods in Hollywood

Jefferson Morley September 18, 2015

VICE News has a revealing story about the CIA, with the help of the Obama White House, used Hollywood to sell the idea of torture in the Oscar winning movie Zero Dark Thirty.

The movie, VICE observers, “stongly suggested that the use of torture led the agency to bin Laden, a narrative that current and former CIA officials promoted in numerous op-eds and interviews after bin Laden was killed. That the narrative was so prominently featured in ZDT angered Senator Dianne Feinstein, the Democratic chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, who fired off a letter to the president of Sony Pictures objecting to what she called a ‘false narrative.’

Here’s how the story begins: …

What about 9/11 conspiracy theories?

It is the view of JFK Facts that the September 11 attacks were indeed the result of conspiracy — a conspiracy organized by Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and Osama bin Laden and carried out by the 19 hijackers.

There is no reasonable doubt that these men were the intellectual authors of the crime.

As for the notion the U.S. government was involved, I defer to Noam Chomsky, no apologist for high-level U.S. government misbehavior.
