WTC 1 and 2: Justice and 9/11 Demands Accountability. Forensic Evidence Indicates Presence of Controlled Demolition Material It was so painful for me as my wife Lil and I watched the events of September 11, 2001 on television. Seeing a plane hit the World Trade Center (WTC) North Tower at 8:46, then a second plane hit the South Tower at 9:02. Shortly, we saw the firefighters and other first responders courageously going into the buildings hoping to extinguish the fires, but it was impossible to foresee what followed. Then we watched in shock as nearly a dozen people were jumping from the upper floors to their deaths. We felt profound horror at 9:59 as the South Tower cascaded in freefall into its own footprint, and then 29 minutes later when the North Tower came down in the same impossible freefall way. The new forensic evidence which is being released today by Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth demonstrates the presence of controlled demolition materiel in the World Trade Center buildings One and Two. Just one week after September 11, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Christine Todd Whitman declared “I am glad to reassure the people of New York and Washington DC that their air is safe to breathe and their water is safe to drink” and that we “. . . need not be concerned about environmental issues as [we return to [our] homes and workplaces”. Yet to this day, at least 900 first responders have since died as a result of the effects of toxic “dust” from the buildings and the some 3,000 human remains that enveloped lower Manhattan and which Mayor Rudolph Giuliani declared “We must clear the rubble”. This “rubble” in fact constituted evidence from a massive crime scene, but was hauled away, first to Long Island, and then was eventually placed on barges and shipped to China. One thing I know is that the official government story of those events, as well as what took place that day at the Pentagon, is just that, a story. This story is not the truth, but far from it. I was born on October 12, 1932. I am announcing today that I will be consuming only liquids beginning Sunday until my eightieth birthday in 2012 and until the real truth of what truly happened on that day emerges and is publicly known.

Gregory has fasted on numerous occasions before this. Yet I think this could be suicidal for him. His fasting won't change anything. Most of the younger folk likely have never even heard of him.
Democrats don't mind war as long as they can have big government. Republicans don't mind big government as long as they can have war.
i know.
Such forms of protest have little chance of having an impact if such protests aren't reported by the MSM. With little or no news coverage, it will all be for naught.
Even when the hunger strike is well known, success is not guaranteed. Just ask Bobby Sands or any other Irish Republican Army member who died of hunger in British prisons doing this form of protest.
So what? He's going to live off protein drinks and vegetable juice for a couple of years. What a sacrifice. Mmm...he will save quite a bit on toilet paper and his water bill. So is he really Truthing or is he just cheap?
I am not so much a prayer guy, but for him I will say some, and think some, and think of him. Who knows, Ghandi brought down the British Empire, maybe Dick Gregory can bring down the USA/ZIO Empire. Never say never and never ever give up. Peace.
Seriously, for the amount of money you are earning to be here, one would think you could come up with something better than that.
A lot of elderly in this country almost live off those little canned protein drinks. I can't recall the brand name just now. To expand a bit, here's some info from a website: Wait, you do know who I'm talking about, right? Dick Gregory. If you're under 30, you probably know him mainly as that diet guy, the guy who took 1,200-pound giant Walter Hudson under his wing (good Lord, not literally), and helped him shear off roughly half his body weight in about four months' time. After Hudson got jammed in the doorway of his Long Island bedroom in October of 1987—the fire department literally had to saw him free—Gregory showed up with his Bahamian Diet Nutritional Drink Mix ($19.95 a can) and a staff of assistants to blockade Hudson's fridge, and by February of '88 Hudson was a svelte 600. Ring a bell?
Ensure. You seem to be wasting your employers time, I was speaking of the ten year old bathroom humor, not vegetables, and protein.

"The real deal is this: the ‘royalty’ controlling the court, the ones with the power, the ones with the ability to make a difference, with the ability to change our course, the ones who will live in infamy if we pass the tipping points, are the captains of industry, CEOs in fossil fuel companies such as EXXON/Mobil, automobile manufacturers, utilities, all of the leaders who have placed short-term profit above the fate of the planet and the well-being of our children." - James Hansen

So my suspicions that he would resort to canned drinks and vegetable juice seem well-founded enough.
Dick Gregory may be a lunatic, I'm not sure. He's definitely a food zealot. For the better part of the past three decades, the man has been thriving on the very diet I just laid out. A fruitarian and rawfoodist, he eats nothing but fresh fruits and vegetables and their juices. He doesn't cook anything—won't even steam his vegetables—because he says they're already cooked by "Mother Nature's outdoor oven—sun, light, air, and moisture." Elaborating in a 1996 interview with Satya magazine, he says, "If you put one hand in boiling water, and you put your other hand in the deep freeze and leave it there overnight, neither one of those hands will be any good: It must do the same thing to food." You can't knock the guy's commitment—or his discipline—but come on. He's a little nuts, don't you think?
