2008 European Tour
Final Report on the European Tour — A Great Success! It looks like the Europe Tour was an awesome success! Thousands of Europeans were exposed to the truth about the explosive controlled demolitions of the 3 World Trade Center high-rises on 9/11 — in 9 cities, across 6 countries, including London, Madrid, Vienna, Geneva, Paris, Aachen, Brussels, Hamburg, and Berlin. Hundreds of architects & engineers came to see what all the controversy was about. (See the numbers in the individual event records). Mainstream media in Spain gave us a good TV interview and prime time coverage of the AE911Truth presentation. About 8 other radio and TV interviews provided additional coverage. Full houses in Madrid and Paris caused people to be turned away. I gave some of the better presentations I've ever given and received a standing ovation. Language was not an issue because we had translators where it was most necessary. And the numbers of hands raised revealed that hardly anyone supported the official conspiracy and fire story after the evidence was given. The event coordinators in every one of the 9 cities showed up and performed professionally from start to finish – working around the clock to ensure that publicity via the TV & news media, marketing to A&E's, and even leafleting on the street, as well as all the facility coordination went without a hitch! These guys are incredible and give the Americans an edge to strive for! A huge thank you to Ms. Annie Machon from London, whose tireless efforts and seamless skills went toward putting the tour together, and who coordinated all of the European Coordinator activities to ensure my efficient travel and other details. And to the lead EC's themselves: Gareth and Douglass in London; Diana and Greg in Madrid; Daniel T. and Jimmy W. in Vienna; Richard Golay, Florian and Valerie in Geneva; Arno, Atmo, and Deborah in Paris; Channing in Aachen; Jean-Luc and Eric in Brussels; Jens and Inez in Hamburg; Ronald, Oliver, Heiner, Hauke, Sebastian, and Clifford in Berlin. You and your team are all national and world patriots, and heroes! I was treated in every city to an incredible whirlwind tour by our gracious EC's. At the top of my list, though, had to be the harrowing motorcycle ride through the medieval streets of Paris – and the Avenue Champs-Élysées – after which Arno brought to life the Eiffel tower, Notre Dame, the Arc de Triomphe, Sacré-Cœur Basilica, and other famous treats to the eye. A close tie had to be the modern domed architectural masterpiece of Sir Norman Foster at the top of the historic Reichstag in Berlin, and Charlemagne's magnificent cathedral in Aachen. And don't miss the "Gherkin" — a pickled shape building in London, also designed by Sir Norman Foster with an amazing cross-spiraling perimeter structure. (see photos in the galleries below) Don't wait to go to Europe until you're 53! You'll regret having missed so much of the unique people and architecture. They are indeed quite aware of and sensitive to the growing political/social/military machine in America. We really don't see it because we live in it and haven't been given an outside view of it through our media. It seems that almost everyone in Europe disfavors the outgoing American Administration – and with a passion! And that is even without hearing the evidence in our 9/11 presentation and its obvious implications. There is quite a move in the European community to bring David Ray Griffin over this spring. Willie Rodriquez recently completed a short powerful tour. And they seem to want AE911Truth back in 6 months. The truth and the truth-tellers are relentless in Europe. We will support them wholeheartedly. It seems that it will require massive international pressure upon our American Government in order to compel the necessary self-reflection and moral will-power of our elected representatives to engage the weighty issues of 9/11 head on, raise truth and justice upon their shoulders, and let the chips fall where they may. My sense is that all of Europe will come to the aid of an ailing America, as we have to them in their times of peril. It has been an immense honor for AE911Truth to be one small voice in the sea of American cries for help from our friends across the Atlantic. I am so grateful for an enlightening and enriching trip where deep friendships and alliances have been forged. Let's build on the momentum! — Richard Gage, AIA, Architect

London Building Up
— Editor
Organizers report nearly 100 architects and engineers have reserved seats. Organized and promoted by WeAreChangeUK and TruthAction London.
http://wearechange.org.uk/
http://www.meetup.com/truthaction-london The Darwin Lecture Theater at the University College of London is a venue poetically apt for Richard's presentation. Charles Darwin too spoke obvious truths considered unspeakable and blasphemous at the time, which refuted a theory so fanciful that today we wonder how it could ever have been the dominant view. The sponsors hope that Richard's concise and credible deconstruction of the official theories will help bring a future of similar enlightenment about 9/11. Promoters have flyered and postered every university architectural and engineering faculty in London, and e-mailed architectural and engineering firms offering free entry to the event. Nearly a hundred positive responses have been received, many from heads of firms. Students and experts are targeted in hopes that they'll swell the signatures list for the AE911Truth petition?and that perhaps a European sister group will form. Of course people of every walk of life are wanted, and flyers have been distributed far and wide. The organizers consider 9/11 Truth vital in the UK, which played a critical role as an ally to the USA's military adventures, and they hope this event can help the push towards peace. The event is organised and hosted by We Are Change UK and Truth Action London, allied groups that meet weekly to distribute 9/11 information to the people of London. We Are Change UK are mostly 9/11 Truth activists of long standing, campaigning for peace, civil liberties, and for positive and peaceful change and unity. Truth Action London is a rapidly growing network of local activists affiliated with the global Truth Action campaign.

from 9/11 Blogger: http://www.911blogger.com/node/18523 Thanks to the conference by Richard Gage, AIA here in Madrid's Colegio Oficial de Arquitectura, on Nov 7, th, this is the first time that 911 truth has been shown on mainstream media here in Spain. The conference was packed and the Colegio, which is the oficial "Guild" for architects here in Spain has requested several copies of the video conference. This is the recording of the news item shown at midday on the 8th of November which was seen nation wide, with English subtitles.

Richard Gage, AIA on Madrid TV
— Editor
Richard Gage, AIA, got a news segment on Telecinco, Spain's most-watched television station, in connection with his lecture in Madrid. Link to page with article and video... ( in Spanish — http://www.telecinco.es )
Also on 9/11 Blogger: http://www.911blogger.com/node/18459 Points the story covered: A steel structure can not fall at near-freefall speed without the destruction of its supporting columns. 500 architects and engineers demand a new investigation into the attacks of Sept. 11 in which the towers of the World Trade Center in New York fell in the eyes of the entire world. 9/11 has threatened "civil liberties of Europeans and has increased surveillance state". The "sudden and spontaneous" collapse is impossible without a controlled demolition. Many witnesses testified of explosions a second before the start of collapse . There was "a massive pyroclastic cloud" and tons of molten metal found later in the cellar. Chemical traces of the high-tech incendiary "thermite" were found in the debris and dust. Many media knew about the collapses before they occurred. The BBC announced the demolition of an adjacent building [ WTC 7 ] minutes before it took place. A simple collapse should have made a tall pile of steel. Columns were found hundreds of meters away, and human bone fragments appeared on the roofs of adjacent buildings.

A Note From An Attendee
— Editor
We received this inspiring note from Anadin, who attended the Vienna presentation. Can you imagine yourself receiving an e-mail from a friend to click on a link about 9/11 and read about these architects and engineers that are convinced that there is evidence that all three World Trade Towers were destroyed. Well, I happened to receive an e-mail from a friend that had a link to the website of the architects and engineers searching for another investigation to be done on the W.T.T. disaster. I watched a clip that was provided on the website of Richard Gage being interviewed on a Canadian news channel. Then the story gets really good... Two days later I received a card in my mail box to come and see Richard Gage give a presentation at the Business University in Vienna. I forgot to mention that I am studying abroad in Vienna, Austria right now. I was very shocked when I found that card sitting in my mailbox. It felt surreal. I went to the presentation and got to meet Richard Gage and find out more of what he is and what made him dedicate all his resource into getting another investigation done. The evidence that he shows is quite convincing that something fishy happened on that day where 3,000 lives were lost. The government reports don't seem to explain a lot of the chemistry and physics that went on and that were remaining after the destruction. I think that everyone should take a look at the documentary that Richard and his team have made and hear what he has said. I believe that Richard and the other architects and engineers are doing our country a great favor to the many that don't know what really happened the day of 9/11.

Geneva Update
— Editor
An internationalist city, home of the Geneva Conventions, the International Red Cross, and the largest United Nations station outside of New York, Geneva is the fourth stop on Richard's European tour. The sponsoring group, "Le 11 Septembre en Question" is independent, democratic, and apolitical. Its citizen-activist members have been promoting the event among architects and through posters at the University, and are hopeful that the 650 seats in the Auditoire Piaget will be filled. Two translators will be available to facilitate the Question and Answer period.

Paris Success Story
— Arno Mansouri
There were 242 people attending the presentation (which was slightly above the number of seats of the venue) on Thursday the 13th of November: a full house indeed! We actually had to refuse some people even though we did put a notice on our site stating that it was fully booked, and asking people NOT to come if they had not made reservations already; do note that we probably could have had about twice as many people if we have had the adequate hall (we had to settle for this movie house for larger venue cost way too much money for our finances, unfortunately) and therefore, we had to cease advertising the presentation a few days before it was held. We then decided to put the emphasis on getting the info on to local (French) professional architects & engineers, and there were 42 architects and 41 engineers present that night. Hopefully, a fair amount of the above mentioned professionals will meet up and create a group of their own, in connection with both A&E and ReOpen911.info We are going to see to that. It is also just as important that these professionals pass the information they received to their friends and colleagues, in every country M. Gage visits. Everything went fine, as these figures show: Believers of the Official Conspiracy Theory: Before the presentation: 13 After the presentation: 1 People unsure: Before: 62 After: 10 Many thanks to Richard Gage's dedication and Annie Machon's decisive help in putting this European Tour together.

Brussels Prelude
— Editor
News from the Brussels 9/11 Truth group. We postered universities and gathering places, budgeting nearly $1,000 for posters, but since they're quickly torn down, we suggest self-printed A2-size posters worn on sandwich boards by "Civic Activism Army" volunteers, passing out newsletters in selected places.  Much more prized than our glossy cards are our "pastiche" remake of the top newspaper "Le Soir". In our "11th day" street outreach actions all the taxi-drivers ask us for "Le Swar". Recent editions here: http://www.spaceeman.be/leswar/
Although we hope to attract intellectuals and decision makers, we have directed our outreach towards architects and engineers, using selected mailing lists. We notified all the media. A phone call from a supportive politician can help. We've had some good breaks, but we give much thanks to the architects and engineers who signed up at AE911Truth.org to call for new investigations. Brussels is a cosmopolitan city and the Capital of Europe. Auditoire Montesquieu, seating 400 people, is at the Université Catholique de Louvain on the outskirts of Brussels. We are curious to see who will come. We expect a full auditorium, and we hope for many architects and engineers, since these are important questions. Jean Marie Bigard said "to discuss these things, it would be best not with a big-mouth comedian like me, but with the experts: architects, engineers, scientists, people from the Ministry of Transportation ... people who are qualified on these issues." Watch him here: http://www.911blogger.com/node/18251 Postering this morning, I imagined a "Civic Activism Army" cleaning up litter and placing fun decorations along with our serious messages. Humor and surprise always help to spread the message. Our Brussels 9/11 Truth group is an unincorporated but growing collection of concerned citizens. Belgium is composed of 10 million individualists, mostly resistant toward government. They aren't "joiners" of political movements, but after centuries of occupation by foreign powers, Belgians inventively resist alien orders and keep a resilient free spirit. When the weather is gray, their hearts are warm. Vienna, Hamburg, and Luxembourg may have more order, but our "disorder" allows for more humanity, making Brussels a very civilized place to live! The high quality and scientific approach of http://www.ae911truth.org/ helps us to educate independently-minded Belgians about the errors of the government's story-line. Belgians want to know more about how the three skyscrapers in New-York came down. A Flemish version of our website is at: http://www.911belgium.be/gage.html We also have an internal wiki-site for activists who request it. Though new legislation outlaws "harassing" people while passing out brochures, take it from a Belgian Doctor, Truth is contagious and unstoppable. Hallelujah!!!! We have listed the http://www.ae911truth.org/+tour page in our mailings. We expect people to visit this page for information since some high-level journalists will not be able to make it on Sunday in Louvain-la-Neuve, but they would be able to make it to Aachen (Paris is practically sold out already).

Hamburg Intro
— Jens Wagner (Organizer Hamburg Event)
Hamburg is the second largest city in Germany, with the second largest sea-port in Europe, the capital of oversea trade and media in Germany. Hamburg is a city filled with journalists, but 9/11 has not yet come out of the YouTube / conspiracy-nut corner. Seven years after 9/11 it is time for Germany to wake up. Hardly a politician knows anything about 9/11. Hardly any journalist in Germany looks into the subject matter. The universities do not want to deal with 9/11. That has to change! We are a small group of 9/11 activists, with a small network of associated journalists. We work on other issues as well. Peak Oil, and alternative energies, for examples. We organize events and write for online magazines. Our group is called: Arbeitsgruppe Zukunftspolitik Hamburg. This time we found a sponsor for the event, because I could raise interest at the IPPNW, where I am a member. IPPNW means International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War. http://www.ippnw.org/ We hope to raise interest among the academics, journalists, engineers, NGO's and politicians in Hamburg and we invited them as personally as possible, to look at the evidence presented by Richard Gage, AIA. We hope to get an influential audience, and we hope for open-minded journalists to come to the event.
