On February 6, 2013, the Santa Barbara View reported that Phillip Marshall, author of, The Big Bamboozle: 9/11 and the War on Terror”, his two teenage children (14 year old Micalia and 17 year old Alex) and the family dog had been found inside their home all dead from gunshot wounds.
Authorities are calling it murder suicide, but while writing The Big Bamboozle, Marshall believed that his life was in danger due to the allegations he was making in the book. Now, due to the circumstances surrounding his death, “Conspiracy theorists” are concerned that the US government has begun an assault on whistle blowers and so-called truthers?
According to Santa Barbara View, Marshall had expressed some degree of paranoia due to the fact that his book accused the Bush administration of being in cahoots with the Saudi intelligence community.
“Think about this,” Marshall said last year in a written statement, “The official version about some ghost (Osama bin Laden) in some cave on the other side of the world defeating our entire military establishment on U.S. soil is absolutely preposterous.”
Marshall went on to say: “The true reason the attack was successful is because of an inside military stand-down and a coordinated training operation that prepared the hijackers to fly heavy commercial airliners. We have dozens of FBI documents to prove that this flight training was conducted California, Florida and Arizona in the 18 months leading up to the attack.”
The veteran pilot confided that he was concerned about his 10-year, independent 9/11 study and most recent book since they pointed to the Saudis and the Bush intelligence community as the executioners of the attack that defeated all U.S. military defenses on Sept. 11, 2001. Marshall said he knew his book might cause some people to take issue with him. Read entire article
Certainly 9/11 conspiracy theorists and Truthers abound, but any theory about the US government being involved in Marshall’s death just doesn’t ring true, or does it? There were any number of ways to eliminate Marshall without killing his children and dog… but… if the US government could kill 3000 innocent people on 9/11 they would have no problem wiping out one family.
So could it be true? If so it would certainly put many reporters, bloggers, as well as every suspicious and concerned citizen in peril for merely seeking the truth. And, more than a few Americans share Marshall’s belief that the United States Government was to blame for (or at the very least complicit in) the 9/11 attacks.
