Respected Leaders and Families Launch 911 Truth Statement Demanding Deeper
Investigation into the Events of 9/11

NEW YORK CITY, NY (Oct. 26, 2004) - An alliance of 100 prominent Americans
and 40 family members of those killed on 9/11 today announced the release
of the 911 Truth Statement, a call for immediate inquiry into evidence that
suggests high-level government officials may have deliberately allowed the
September 11th attacks to occur. The Statement supports an August 31st
Zogby poll that found nearly 50% of New Yorkers believe the government had
foreknowledge and "consciously failed to act," with 66% wanting a new 9/11
investigation.

Focusing on twelve questions, the Statement highlights areas of
incriminating evidence that were either inadequately explored or ignored by
the Kean Commission, ranging from insider trading and hijacker funding to
foreign government forewarnings and inactive defenses around the Pentagon.
The Statement asks for four actions: an immediate investigation by New
York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer, Congressional hearings, media
analysis, and the formation of a truly independent citizens-based inquiry.

The Statement's list of signatories includes notables spanning the
political spectrum, from Presidential candidates Ralph Nader, Michael
Badnarik, and David Cobb to Catherine Austin Fitts, a member of the first
Bush administration, as well as Washington veterans like Pentagon
whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg and retired CIA analyst Ray McGovern. Other
signers range from peace activists like Code Pink president Jodie Evans and
Global Exchange's Kevin Danaher to retired lieutenant colonel Dr. Robert
Bowman; from environmentalists like Randy Hayes and John Robbins to
business leaders such as Paul Hawken and Karl Schwartz, CEO of Patmos
Nanotechnologies; from populist journalist Ronnie Dugger to renowned
investigative reporter Kelly Patricia O’Meara. The statement includes 43
noted authors, including New York Times #1 bestseller John Gray, as well as
18 eminent professors, historians, and theologians. Other notables include
five-term Georgia Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney, singers Michelle Shocked
and Michael Franti, and actors Ed Asner and Mimi Kennedy.

The Statement was facilitated by 911truth.org, a leading coalition. The
organization has also announced a press conference outside of Eliot
Spitzer's Manhattan office (corner of Cedar and Nassau) at 2:00PM on
Thursday, Oct. 28th where 9/11 family members and victim group
representatives will file a formal complaint demanding the first criminal
investigation of 9/11 events by the New York Attorney General.
