Academician David Ray Griffin addressed an overflow audience early yesterday evening at the Grand Lake Theater in Oakland, California. The topic of his lecture was the Myths and Realities of the terrible events that occurred in the United States September 11, 2006.

At one point in his address, Dr. Griffin remarked that the mainstream media seems to be showing greater interest in his theories that controlled demolition was used in the destruction of New York World Trade Center buildings, that the government failed to adequately investigate and explain the terror incidents of that day, and that those events were used as a pretext to go to war in Afghanistan and Iraq.

He suggested that this growing interest might possibly be due to the corporate world's growing disenchantment with the Bush administration which is failing by its own incompetence to deliver the economic rewards which imperial conquest seemed to have earlier promised it.

Griffin expressed hope that secular humanists and people of every religious denomination begin to demand answers to the burning questions they have about the concealment of truth by those wielding power in America today.
