Gore Vidal has died, aged 86. I think it is important enough to post in '9/11 Truth News', because he has been one of the most high-profile people to fearlessly champion 9/11 Truth.

Here's the Guardian obituary:

Just about par for the course, the Guardian says sweet Fanny Adams about his stance on 9/11; and it's not in the 'Comment' section.

But keep an eye on the 'Obits' and articles; we may find an opportunity to get his position on 9/11 across.

The Guardian does actually have a 'Comment is Free' article on Gore Vidal.
I managed to get this up:

'The most important legacy Gore Vidal left, was his unswerving conviction that 9/11 was an 'Inside Job'.
Not a word about that conviction in any of the obits I've read to date, but surely, if (as I would stake my life on) he was right, anything else he wrote pales into insignificance.
He put his good name and his conscience where his mouth was - would that more 'celebs' would have the courage to state the obvious.
He may well have wrote that Christians are hypocrites - as a Christian, I can only agree with him insofar as the 'leaders' (Vatican, 'Televangelists' like Billy Graham etc (showing my age a bit here; there have been plenty since him) and the mugs who sheepishly follow the 'Right -Wing Fundamentalist Rapture Merchants').
God bless you, Gore. You deserve a place in Heaven.'

The BBC covered Gore Vidal's passing again today on WW3 footing Radio 4 and of course no mention of his criticism of - guess who - the BBC and other Western media as being controlled by the war mongers & profiteers

Great book - Perpetual War For Perpetual Peace - of course not mentioned by the BBC again for the usual reasons - if you didn't get it yet - think about it??
