Trump ally Mel Gibson calls for โtruthโ about 9/11 โ RT Entertainment
Hollywood star Mel Gibson, a vocal supporter of US President Donald Trump, has urged the American government to reveal the โtruthโ about the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
The Australian-born actor shared a clip from journalist Tucker Carlsonโs interview with former Congressman Curt Weldon, which was published on Monday. The tragedy that took place nearly 25 years ago โmight be the biggest scandal in American history,โย Gibson wrote on X on Tuesday.
On September 11, 2001, Al-Qaeda terrorists hijacked four passenger airliners and crashed two of them into the twin World Trade Center skyscrapers in Manhattan. A third plane struck the Pentagon building, and a fourth crashed into a field in Pennsylvania. Nearly 3,000 people were killed.
โThree buildings collapsed as if they were programmed to do so. Not twoย โ three. To this day, no one has explained how Building 7 fell, even though no plane hit it,โ Gibson wrote. He went on to argue that โtowers were designed to withstand airplane impacts.โ
โWhat really happened that day? And why is no one allowed to talk about it? Enough with the fear. Itโs time for the truth. About 9/11. About history. About all of us,โ Gibson added in his post.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, Building 7 collapsed because of fires ignited by debris from one of the towers hit by a plane.
In his interview, Weldon dismissed the label of conspiracy theorist, implying that the CIA and the government are skilled at cover-ups. โYou know, what gets me is reporters who call people conspiracy theorists. Well, thatโs all the agency does! Theyโre the ones who create the conspiracies,โ the former politician argued. โThey have whole courses for their agents on how to make people look like theyโre conspiracy theorists.โ
Weldon urged Trump to appoint โpeople of impeccable integrityโ to a commission that would โstudy the factsโ around 9/11.
For years, some have speculated that the official version of events may not have been entirely true, and even claimed that the attack was an inside job. Authors and activists have tried to poke holes in the 2004 report by the 9/11 Commission set up by the US Congress.
The 9/11 Commission concluded that โnone of the measures adopted by the US government from 1998 to 2001 disturbed or even delayed the progress of the Al-Qaeda plot.โ
