9/11’s second round of slaughter


http://onlinejournal.com/artman/publish/article_2845.shtml


A review of Dust to Dust: the health effects of 9/11
A film by Heidi Dehncke-Fisher

What makes this documentary, Dust to Dust: the health effects of 9/11, so special is not just the chilling statistics it displays onscreen about the poisonous brew of materials that fell on Ground Zero and the surrounding neighborhoods; what makes this piece so affecting is the heart-rending testimony of the warm-bodied victims of 9/11’s fall-out, now living through a second round of slaughter, sadly their own.

These victims are struggling to stay alive and sane, combating cancers, pulmonary diseases, every conceivable kind of breathing disorder, and the psychic shock of being misled, flat-out lied to by the US and New York City governments as to the risk they were taking continuing to work, returning home or going to school in the area; this whether on the piles, in the surrounding neighborhoods, office buildings or even small businesses, directly and months after the apocalypse occurred.

To make matters worse, the organizations designated to help these people, FEMA, the EPA, Workmen’s Compensation, private insurance companies, municipal health providers, Social Security, Medicare, et. al, present these victims with a daily barrage of obstacles, largely red tape in paying (or avoiding to pay) for medical bills, including medications, surgeries, organ transplants, physical or psychological therapies, plus well-deserved financial benefits to help victims meet living expenses and literally keep a roof over their heads.

The federal, city and corporate blockage by the very people who should be facilitating assistance to these victims compound the inhumanity. The guilty parties range from functionaries in the various federal and city agencies and insurance companies to those who stand at the very helm of this nation. It’s no wonder one female EPA worker says, staring in the face of this conspiracy of red tape and feet-shuffling, “We are the dust of 9/11.”

-snip of details-

This is why I suggest you savor this documentary, every word of these gentle victims; every word of the innocent and the guilty. They are all there for your scrutiny, and many still in power. And, whether you believe 9/11 was an Inside Job or not, Dust to Dust will open your eyes to the punishable criminality of this second round of slaughter. It will make your ire rise and demand justice one more time, this time for the lingering hurt.
------------------------------


our 'ire' can rise all it wants but nothing will happen until someone is brave enough to arrest them.

Justice is a battered woman

1. I've been told that everyone who breathed that dust will suffer
from the effects. That most will die in the next ten-twenty years. I don't know how accurate that is. It is sad.

2. the murderous bullshit of this administration and the Republican enablers like Rudy and incompetent
appointments in the EPA that caused this and perpetuate this and the media who cover this up.. need to be investigated, tried and convicted after legislation is passed to take their pensions so they cant profit from their criminal actions.

when legislation is passed and word goes out ..the minions of evil will be lining up for immunity to turn in their bosses to save their sorry asses.. this will greatly facilitate the investigation.

this is not negligent homicide.. it is first degree MURDER. IF THE DEMOCRATS WONT DO IT, i will support civil indictments, and quit the Democratic party.. if Ralph Nader will do something, I'll vote for him anytime... i am getting sick of this getting worse every day while the congress investigates baseball bullshit..

5. rudy911 also breathed the dust.
Along with many of those who declared it safe. No one is immune to what they breathed.

It was still smoldering when chimpy stood on the pile, too.

7. smoldering wasn't dust.. which caused fatal silicosis, rudy was told the building was going to fall ...

and he left the scene before there was any 'dust'.. if he was exposed at all, it was only long enough for a quick photo op with the real rescuers, who actually did something other screw their mistress in the WTC emergency control center BEFORE IT WENT DOWN

10. "nothing will happen until someone is brave enough to arrest"
Has there ever been a time of greater lawlessness in the USA? The breadth and depth is getting biblical.
