The BBC’s embarrassing attempt to dig itself out of a hole that keeps getting deeper was again exemplified during their latest yellow journalism hit piece on 9/11 truth, in which they played Larry Silverstein’s “pull it” comment but edited out the most important part of the statement, and in doing so changed its context altogether.
An army of informed truth activists are almost tripping over each other to point out the gargantuan number of errors, ad hominem smear tactics, bias and shoddy investigative techniques displayed in the program which aired Sunday in the UK.
Just one such example concerns WTC complex leaseholder Larry Silverstein’s infamous “pull it” comment which can be viewed in its entirety below with other clips included for context in confirming that the term “pull it” is industry jargon for deliberately demolishing a building.
However, in the BBC’s attempt to convince the viewer that “pull it” meant to withdraw firefighters from the building, despite the fact that according to NIST’s WTC collapse lead investigator Shyam Sunder, “There was no firefighting in WTC 7,” and additionally the FEMA report, which stated “No manual firefighting actions were taken by FDNY,” the editors carefully snipped out the last portion of Silverstein’s comments where he states, “and then we watched the building collapse.”
Cycle through to 20 minutes into the clip to spot the edit.
By deliberately removing “and then we watched the building collapse,” the BBC has performed a hatchet job on the whole context of the statement by censoring the fact that the collapse of WTC 7 was a consequence of the decision to “pull” the building.
The BBC’s zealous efforts to redeem its name by ceaselessly attacking the 9/11 truth movement accelerated after the broadcaster was shamed when footage from 9/11 emerged of their correspondent Jane Standley reporting that WTC 7 had collapsed even as it remained standing in the shot behind her head.
Questions as to how this could have happened and allegations that news corporations, whether wittingly or unwittingly, were being fed a script on the day of 9/11 as it unfolded were met with hostility, and the BBC claimed it had “lost” the tape.
The tape was miraculously “discovered” again on the eve of the broadcast of their latest hit piece but the footage was not shown in the program, presumably to avoid further embarrassment.
Below you can read articles concerning the mountain of other lies contained in the hit piece and watch a discussion about the program with Alex Jones and Jason Bermas.
We will be picking apart the BBC’s latest atrocious effort to claim they have “solved the final mystery of 9/11″ over the course of this week with multiple investigative reports and as we did last time – debunk this latest hit piece as nothing more than the revolting stench of yellow journalism.

At 35 minutes and 50 seconds into the BBC hack job documentary, the head of Controlled Demolitions implies that thermite could not bring WTC 7 down because it would not be able to cut all the columns simultaneously.
But we are led to believe throughout the entire BBC show that simple fires did just that!!!
Wow BBC is full of it!

I was on the Mark Levin show last night, Mark had a sub host; Tom Mar who was pumping support for Iraq for 2 hours. I brought up architects for engineers for 9-11 truth dot org [of which I am a member & registered engineer], but he delayed it out.
Tom immediately went into ad hominem “no planes hit the building lizard people” attacks, and kept me delayed out during almost the entire less than 1 minute call…you can hear it at his streamed page….it’s at minute 34 of the 7-7 broadcast.
…at least there was one thing I said that made it to the air:
“Sir, which plane hit building 7 again?”
What is Tom Mar afraid of?

They just keep digging themselves a bigger and bigger hole, it is too bad that so many people still watch the NWO controlled cnn, nbc, fox news media…brainwash bs news.
Thanks alex for exposing another one of their attempts to cover this up.

It’s relatively simple for “truthers” to see through the gaping holes and idiotic smear attempts, but how will this be received by the average BBC viewer? It will likely be regarded as legitimate, and through a combination of ignorance and contempt, millions of viewers will be utterly convinced of the authenticity of the limited perspective this hit piece offers.
Some of these people may be reasoned with, but many others will ignore or outright condemn any attempt to correct the errors and point out the irrelevant nonsense. The fact is, even with absurd hit pieces, the BBC will persuade more people to see things their way than any of us ever will. I’m not trying to be a defeatist or anything, but I’m not sure why this particular hit piece should be paid any more attention than the others.
July 8th, 2008 at 12:51 pm
I am ssssooooooooooooooo ashamed of the BBC
July 8th, 2008 at 12:59 pm
well, if we think about this latest move…obviously the powers that be are scared of the truth rising. Luckily for the truth movement….ALOT of people own camera technologies. Cameras are more a threat to the NWO than the citizens being armed. ONCE something is captured on camera….its a done deal.
they can release all the edited documentaries they want ….THE TRUTH will just keep rising.

They are getting desperate, pull it…since when are firefighters (in plural) called “it” in a sentence. If the public buys this, they are dumber than I thought. Oh and I guess he is in charge of firefighters?
July 8th, 2008 at 2:06 pm
Keep your eyes on the eye at the top! All the lies flow from there. BBC knew, because the puppetmasters knew, and the BBC just read the “news” like good little employees. To see that woman telling us about something that had not yet happened is all the proof we need to know that all the lies were ready before the incident even happened. Hey Lady! Look behind you! There’s building 7! BUSTED.

i’d just like to clear up a misconception often shared by people who are not from the uk . i’ve often heard americans and people from other countries say things like ” the bbc is the only really impartial news agency because they have no sponsors . ” or variations along those lines . let me educate those who don’t know . the bbc is in receipt , by law which is heavily enforced , of a licence fee to use ANY television , anywhere in the uk . the licence only covers viewing bbc channels . however , even if you had a custom made tv that would only be capable of recieving all channels other than the bbc channels , you would still be prosecuted because your tv ” has the potential to recieve bbc channels ” . a lot of people , especially women , go to prison for non payment of licence fees . now , this can only continue with the consent of the government and with the governments enforcement of this ridiculous law . who still believes that the bbc is impartial ?
July 8th, 2008 at 2:21 pm
there’s something i don’t get about Silversteen saying “pull it” on the interview. He says that they preferred to pull it because there already been a lot of dead and so on… But it means the building was already prepared for a “pull”… yet Silversteen hasn’t been charged, didn’t go to jail, nothing happened to him. I hear he actually got a lot of money out of it.
So if nobody, no juge in the US has the guts to bring him to court, then i understand the kind of country you’re living in.
May the truth spread and justice prevail.
the Truth movement is growing here in Europe too.

The BBC is NWO expect nothing of any value from this trite TV
I am English and our country is almost lost – already the country is about to have a foreign illegal police force being located in this country (The Daily Telegraph 08/07/2008). Our nation is in serioous trouble – it is about to be an islamic state and democracy is dead. We have an unelceted prime minister. We were not given the promised referendum for the Lisbon Treaty. We have lost Habeus Corpus, you can now be detained without charge or knowing why you have been arested, without a lawyer, without a phone call, for 42 days, originally they wanted 90 days. Watch ‘Taking Liberties Since 1997′. And on it goes.
Well done Alex and everyone who has woken up.
Good luck to all those protecting freedom.

“9/11: The BBC Cover Up” – anyone up for making a documentry?
July 8th, 2008 at 3:45 pm
9/11 truth forever,all 3 towers came down the same way.anybody with half a brain knows that.lets wakeup more people,911=inside job!
July 8th, 2008 at 4:08 pm
I just watched the broadcast. Yes, it certainly was NOT fair and balanced.
1- It seems that the modeling of the WTC 7 collapse will be the key to counter the plausible deniability here. Obviously, NIST must find that the speed of the building collapse was a direct result of instantaneous complete column and beam failure due to fire. This will be the crux of their argument, because it has to be. The existing early release reports do not appear to support this theory, though. The office/cubicle fires appeared to burn out during the tests. NIST will have to demonstrate how these fires either caused the damage in a short amount of time per column/beam as it traveled, or that the fire did not react as shown in their early released models. In either case, their report must be certified and is subject to public comment.
2- As far as the BBC early report is concerned. it appears that Reuters retraction was drafted after the fact by some time, no Reuters reporter source was cited, no local news source was cited, and no actual source was cited. The plausible deniability presented here does not meet required standards, and BBC has failed in this respect.
3-Regarding Richard Clark’s statements pertaining to conspiracies. Perhaps he should be shown the local affiliate footage of the Oklahoma City bombing before reaching his conclusions.
4-Mr. Loizeux referred to “Fantasy Land” being the source of certain nanotechnologies, but perhaps he should be referred to existing projects at Lawrence Livermore and Sandi National Lab, as they are not located in fantasy land. His contracts with the government should be reviewed for NONDISCLOSURE AGREEMENTS.
5-The continued references to “fantasy land” and other such terms appear to be the driving theme for this hit piece.
6- The fact that BBC did not interview firefighters with opposing views was certainly shoddy journalism.

Binladin sends a letter to U.S. saying I am going to attack America, then he does. Condi Rice says I thought he meant an American interest somewhere oversea’s, Next Condi Rice says who could have thought they were going to fly plane’s as weapon’s into our building’s. The intelligence community has known of this possibility for many year’s now, and so should Condi Rice have known.
On the day of 9/11 branche’s of our military and intelligence community were in the process of practicing a drill designed specifically to prevent such an attack. Now wouldn’t one think that we could not have been more prepared then we were at that very moment, and therefore should have easily prevented it. Instead it was because that very drill itself was flawed that it enabled the supposed terrorist to succeed. If we are so ill prepared so that we can’t stop four jumbo jet’s fiying around our major citie’s for two hour’s looking for a place to crash, then god help us if we were being attacked with missile’s.

The bbc are however accountable due to a supposed policy of fairness. The only thing to do now is complain to every possible authority. I think you can complain to Ofcom claiming it was biased and unfair. Im sure many of you are much more eloquent and informed than I am perhaps someone should write a standard letter which we can all use to complain. The are legally bound to act on it and although we know nothing will happen if enough of us shout about it at least we can cause some trouble.
I hate the bbc they sicken me, have any of you noticed channel 4 are getting a little more edgy? I have even seen alex jones stuff on there! I wonder how far they will push it before they are stopped?
July 8th, 2008 at 4:45 pm
#18.. don’t forget Rice also called the mayor of that city in California and told him not to fly that morning.

Who is this “engineer” that was on site that told the fire chief that wtc 7 could collapse from fire in 5 hours?
July 8th, 2008 at 5:34 pm
i had my doubts. after watching the bbc show, i’m sure 9/11 was an inside job. they even said how the demolition company and others were being called murderers. they didn’t give one mention of all the death threats directed towards alex jones.

The government, the BBC and other media outlets and politicians are like children that change their stories when facts and critical insights are presented to them to make a case demonstrating that they had their hands in the cookie jar:
The child innocently asserts, “I didn’t steal cookies.”
The adult says, “But I saw you take it.”
The child states, “How could you see me take it if my back was turned to you? It only looks that way in your own mind cause that is all you want to see.”
The adult retorts, “Not only did I see you, but I followed you because you told your brother and sister that you were going to steal cookies and I overheard you.”
The child throws a temper tantrum, “Nobody believes me. How could you hear if I had the door to the room closed? You are just paranoid and hearing things. I think that you need help cause you are seeing things and hearing things.”
Then the angry parent screams, “then what the hell is that in your hands? It looks like a cookies to me!”
The child bursts out in tears and cries, “I don’t know how it got there…but, but, but I think I found it on the floor. I…I…was just picking it up to put it back.”
The adult walks to the hidden camera in the kitchen and pull out the DVD disk inside and inserts it into the DVD player. “We’ll just see then what the video has to show us.”
The video shows the child laughing as he takes cookies from the jar and says “I don’t care what anyone says, I am stealing cookies from this f---ing jar even if I was tol not to do it!”
The parent grabs the cookies fom the child’s hand, “then what the hell is that all about? Does the camera lie.”
The child states, “yes, cameras lie. Itis digital so it could have been tampered with way before this incident. It is easy to tamper with digital media and insert me with fake audio into the DVD and pretent it was me. It was you all along trying to set me up. Whoever is in that video, it is not me. I will only believe you if you had used film-somethign that can’t be tampered with.”
A couple cookie crumbs fall out of the child’s mouth and he swallows the rest in one big gulp. The parent resigns–not wanting to reason to such an unreasonable and stubborn idiot. The parent has to asct just as irrational as the irrational child and lie. “the reason why I didn’t want to to steal those cookies is because they were there for years and the raisens are rotten and could poison you, but you could go ahead and keep taking them.”
The child cries out in terror, “If you heard me and saw me and video-taped me, then why did you let me eat the rotten cookies? I think you just wanted to see me get poisoned and die. Please take me to the hospital.”
The stupid parent then says “It’s ok, don’t cry. Just don’t do it again,” giving the child all the security and comfort it needs in its time of crisis.”
The crocodile tears fall from the child’s face and the parent feels real bad, then the child whispers to himself, “I got a way with it again–parents are stupid!”
And on and on goes the childish ex post facto bulls---.
July 8th, 2008 at 5:38 pm
they mentioned the demolition company was being called murderers. they never mentioned that alex jones and likely others in the 9/11 truth movement were having their lives threatened. total hit piece that obviously left out key points. i’m surprised they even mentioned the thermite. and they make it sound like the u.s. government couldn’t engineer a building collapse with something like high tech thermite.
July 8th, 2008 at 6:55 pm
I’ve seen a lot of hit pieces on 9/11. Sounds like I will have a hard time stomaching this one, in particular.
July 8th, 2008 at 7:08 pm
Before this hit piece was broadcast, there was an advert for BBC Radio 3/4 with Kofi Annan saying we need to unite as a world against terrorism, setting up the psychology of the viewer…
July 8th, 2008 at 7:10 pm
VERY IMPORTANT…
July 8th, 2008 at 7:16 pm
The psychological use of an advert for BBC Radio 3/4 with Kofi Annan saying we need to unite as a world against terrorism is a smoking gun. WE should complain about the direct use of this advert before such a serious and sensitive issue/programme creates, implies, connotes bias/was inappropriate.
July 8th, 2008 at 8:04 pm
post 29 – red – ( sarcastically ! ) oh , but you couldn’t have heard an advert on the bbc ….. the bbc doesn’t advertise …….. that’s why they need to charge people a for a licence fee ! ( see post 12 )
post 24 – contragovernment – dude ,you got that exactly right . that was a godamn piece of art !
July 8th, 2008 at 8:58 pm
If you are “awake” then you can easily discerne the difference between fact and fiction. This BBC piece is Mega-Fiction. “We” can all see that this is a paramount effort to appease the public. I doubt that even the blindest of the blind can not see this as a fraud. The problem is that most people are beyond blind to the truth. This was foretold to us by Biblical Prophecy.
” For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: 6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: 7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. 8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. 11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, 12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? 13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. 14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless. 15 And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; 16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction. 17 Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own stedfastness. 18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory” -2 Peter 3
Wake up people and get saved by Jesus today! It is our your only hope!

I’m Even More Convinced After Watching This Cheap Shot Than I Was Before… INSIDE JOB
July 16th, 2008 at 1:10 am
Forget the “pull’ and “pull it” nonsense.There is no way that Larry S. is slipping up and spilling the beans.Although I agree that the show was a slick,non-investigation,designed to obfuscate some serious questions,it’s not even possible that the NYFD was in on this.To believe that Silverstein made a Freudian slip is to believe that the NYFD blew up the building (”…they made that decision to pull….”).If this movement has any more legs that theory has to be abandoned.
