Overview

After completing studies in political science, Thierry Meyssan worked for an international association defending civil liberties, before taking up investigative journalism.

During the course of his career, he has been an expert on human rights issues advising the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe (C.S.C.E.), as well as editor-in chief of the monthly magazine Maintenant.

An attentive observer of international affairs, T. Meyssan was intrigued by the anomalies in the first photographs released of the attack on the Pentagon, then by the confusion and contradictions in official statements, including those about events at the World Trade Center. He thus carried out his own investigation, which led him from surprise to surprise, each more astonishing and terrifying than the last.

    Believe what you want to believe!

    Reality is defined by each person, if you want to subscribe to the media, then by all means. That¿s what freedom is about. For those who think that we live in a manufactured world that seems to self-perpetuate. Well then that¿s fine too! Both sides offer some interesting facts someone did seem to be in a pretty big hurry to melt down all the scrap from the twin towers. There is also a seismic graph moments before the towers fell that spiked. Indicating something impulsive, an explosion? Then again, why would our own country, which is sworn to protect us, lie about something of this magnitude.

    Great Book - Certainly NOT Trash

    This is a great book. It is interesting that the people who call it 'trash' have nothing to say but that accusation, except for one that vilifies all the French which shows that those reviewers are just American Trash! Read it and see how the government has used the media and these alleged reviewers, to sell their outrageous lies! Bush is crazy - read his inaugural speech! 'And then there came a day of fire!' 'Our vital interests and deepest beliefs are now one!'

    9-11 Big Cover-UP

    Bush's utter stonewalling of a 9-11 investigation from Day One should give a clue. If he's so upright, what's he hiding? BUSH KNEW....the Pentagon pictures are worth a thusand words of anecdotal evidence...the crash is too small to accomodate a 757...true believers will never get it.

    The discovery of one¿s own adherence to deceitful ideologies often results in denial and defensiveness

    Many people ¿ as exemplified within these reviews ¿ are unwilling to recognize that there is even a slight possibility that the events of 9/11 were perpetrated by an entity other than Osama bin Laden¿s al Qaeda. Many people are unwilling to acknowledge the obvious corruption within our government. Many people are unwilling to consider the massive amounts of unbiased evidence that point in a direction that they are uncomfortable scrutinizing. Many people possess a profound ethnocentric attitude and adhere to heavy doses of propaganda, which aid in the manifestation of the aforementioned. I was one of these people; I believed, without a doubt, the official-version of the 9/11 events. Then, one day, I read something that contradicted my beliefs, and I dismissed it as nonsense. I dismissed it as a loony conspiracy theory. Shortly after, I realized that if I¿m so sure about my beliefs, then it wouldn¿t hurt to look into this conspiracy theory. So, I did a bit of research, and, in doing so, I found actual evidence that supported the theory (like the indisputable fact that a number of the 19 supposed hijackers are still alive and well ¿ look it up). After completing more than one thousand hours of truly objective research (I had nothing to gain either way, though I did have something to lose: trust in my government), I can attest that this book is quite accurate. Yes, the author could have offered more evidence, but there is a sufficient amount to allow the readers to ponder the veracity of their beliefs. For those of you who refuse to accept that our government would hurt its own people, I highly suggest that you search the web for the McCollum Memorandum and the Northwood¿s Memorandum. Get the book and evaluate with an open mind.

    UNsubstantiated reviews are worthless

    After reading the book carefully and seeing a movie using some of the info, the detailed analysis reveals that there is manipulation and a cover-up by the US government. Have they found the Weapons of Mass Destructions yet? Strange! They haven't. How convenient to point to the Muslims (the next Russians --the new enemy), but maybe the Jewish lobby and the arms' corporations are more perverse in their strategy to disempower the muslims (Palestinians incl.).

    What a bunch of crap this guy is made of

    I can't believe the french government would let some publishing company in their country publish a book of this philosiphy. This guy is crazy and the french government should put him into an institution. If you think about it, why would president bush force plan to kill 3000 of his own citizens just so he could start a war with another country. I also can't understand why a lot of the continent or europe would support such a looney as him. It's as if all of them are pufffing the magic dragon and don't really know what they are getting themselves into. If every american were to buy this book then that means that they are supporting the french right now even they don't support us in anything at the moment. You also would possibly change your mind on the terriost attacks and make youm go against the government on information that is totally bogus.

    Just the facts

    This is the best book on the subject. Thierry Meyssan is a brilliant scholar; every American citizen (and journalist) should read this book. It is full of facts and information that most of the American media, doing the bidding of the Bush Administration, have ignored. Those who have previously given this book a negative review have probably not even read it. The facts presented by Mr. Meyssan are hard, if not impossible to refute. Simply because we don't want to believe that the Bush Administration might actually engage in such criminal activity does NOT mean it won't happen! Bravo to Thierry Meyssan; at least he is trying to shed some light on a very dark subject.

    Your blind, France Man

    No plane crash in Pentagon? Funny. I have a custodial manager who actually been there! She was all shaken up when that date came up the following year! Who are you to say that the damage and deaths of the Pentagon was a fake and conspired by a faction in the US Military!? HUH?!?

    Is this guy for real?

    This man cannot truly believe what he has written! Meyssan is using the 9/11 tragedy as an excuse to make a quick buck. Case in point - his newest venture is a $9 French card deck naming the 'most dangerous' U.S. leaders (a spinoff of the Iraq's Most Wanted card deck). My advice is if you must read his crazy notions for yourself, borrow this book from your local library...please don't fatten Meyssan's pockets by buying a copy!

    Pulp Fiction

    The French are well known for their arts, including fine statues, paintings, elaborate buildings, and now, a fantastic piece of fiction. In an attempt to create a conspiracy theory to last as long as the Kennedy Assasination, the author overlooks key pieces of evidence to make a claim that a plane never hit the side of the Pentagon on 9/11. Beyond the fact that video has been declassified showing the plane crashing into the helo pad just infront of the wall, errupting into flames, and pushing into the building and the toppled lightpoles on the interstate as it decended before impact, the author claims there was never a plane. Eye witnesses all over watched and listened as it came in (again, over the interstate), yet, the author claims there was never a plane. The black boxes were recovered from the wreckage, yet the author claims there was never a plane. And the author does overlook the fact that the Pentagon sits at the end of Reagan National Airport when he questions why a plane was flying so close to the Capitol. All that separates the Pentagon from the Airport is a 6 lane highway, which is why that specific airport was closed for so long following 9/11 when all other airports were re-opened. Congrats on a great piece of fiction. If you are wanting to use this book as reference material for the true events of 9/11, don't bother.

    France: The Biggest Liar

    Get on your waders, this is the biggest load of garbage on this earth. Guess the author came to the site and did a first hand inspection of the Pentagon after the 'no crash'. Thank goodness for people like George Bush who care about the world. Do you think he would have let 15,000 citizens die from a heat wave? and Omar, the student. 'Regeim' is spelled 'Regime', you should attend some classes.

    not a total lie!! Jerry

    I'm sorry to say, that I have believed since day one that there was no plane, (at least not a 757) that crashed into the pentagon. If you really take a look at the footage, it is impossible to argue, but because it is such a taboo subject, no one in the U.S. will touch it (not mainstream anyway). I'm not a supporter of the French, I think their (deck of cards) is ridiculous as well, but I believe Mr. Meyssan is indeed right at least about that one thing. I'm sure our government has what they feel are legitimate reasons for keeping the truth about the pentagon a secret, but I do believe strongly that the truth is just that... a secret. GOD BLESS AMERICA!

    Meyssan: the light will be shed

    Meyssan is brilliant and provocative in his approach. Attempts at revealing the mysteries surrounding 9/11 are well planned and researched. While one can only speculate, Meyssan puts forth a credible argument.
