9-11 and the Public Safety: Seeking Answers and Accountability
To members of the press:
A international press conference and formal web site launch for
UnansweredQuestions.org will be held on Monday, June 10th from 2-5 PM at
the National Press Club in Washington, D.C.
The goal of this unprecedented press event and public inquiry is to pose
pointed, as yet unanswered, questions regarding the failure of our
national security infrastructure, and the response that has sacrificed
civil liberties and rewarded failure as opposed to ensuring performance
and guaranteeing freedoms, now and in the future.
Sponsors
UnansweredQuestions.org is being launched by an independent, non-partisan
network of citizens concerned about the growing number of issues
surrounding September 11th that have yet to be addressed or resolved; and
their related public safety and Constitutional implications. Invited
panelists will offer statements, present well-documented research, and ask
incisive questions relative to these issues while addressing how citizens
can act now to ensure accountability from those in government directly
responsible for public safety and upholding the Constitution.
The conference will be moderated by Catherine Austin Fitts, President of
Solari and former Assistant Secretary of Housing during the 1st Bush
administration.
Confirmed participants include:
1st Panel-- (approx. 45 min including Q&A)
- Julie Sweeney, wife of Brian Sweeney, killed on United Airlines flight 175
into South WTC tower Julie will present her case for a full and open
investigation.
- Ryan Amundson, brother of Craig Amundson, killed at the Pentagon;
co-founder of Peaceful Tomorrows.org. (issue focus TBA)
- Derrill Bodley, also of Peaceful Tomorrows, lost his daughter Deora on
Flight 93 (issue focus TBA)
- Lorna Brett, Director of Media Relations, Nolan Law Group, representing
9/11 families on United Airlines hijacked planes. (issue focus TBA)
- Mary Schiavo, Esq., lawyer for 32 passengers' families from all 9/11
hijacked planes, former Inspector General of the U.S. Department of
Transportation ('90-'96) and author of Flying Safe, Flying Blind. Ms.
Schiavo will speak to FAA accountability and Airline safety.
Sponsors
2nd Panel-- (Approx. 1 hr.)
- Michael Ruppert, Editor of From the Wilderness Publications, investigative

geo-strategic context to the War on Terror. He is currently on a lecture

press coverage.
- John Judge
Author, Judge for Yourself and Co-founder, Coalition on Political
Assassinations (COPA), will speak about the failure of US Air Defenses on

- Tom Flocco, investigative journalist, will discuss highly unusual insider
trading in the trading days immediately preceding September 11th.
- J. Michael Springmann, veteran of 20 years of foreign service, posted at
the Saudi Embassy for a two years. Based on his experience there he will
speak to "the CIA and terrorism."
- Dr. Steve Camarota, Director of Research; Center for Immigration Studies;

of Law will discuss Constitutional issues relative to the Patriot Act.
- Richard Ochs, freelance writer and researcher, will present his research
into the anthrax attacks.
--Members of Congress have been invited to participate in the third hour
of the conference.
Organizers maintain that it is the role of informed active citizens to
insist upon standards of performance from our public officials in regard
to the events surrounding 9-11 and ongoing threats. Organizers are calling
for a complete and public investigation of the failures of government
agencies (FBI, CIA, INS, FAA) uncovered recently. This, they insist,
requires a fuller disclosure of the circumstances surrounding each case in
order to effectively address documented misappropriation (or lack of
appropriation), incompetence, negligence and possible corruption. Doing
so will ultimately foster an intelligence and national security apparatus
that is effectively committed to the public safety and a government worthy
of trust, operating within the bounds of the US Constitution, and fully
accountable to the American people.
Members of radio, television and print press are invited to attend. There
will be ample opportunity for questions and follow-up, and one-on-one
interviews with the panelists directly following the event.
