The federal government has surrendered any notion that it has legitimate authority over matters of scientific dispute.
Yesterday we received notice that the United States Supreme Court has denied AE911Truth’s petition in our case against the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
While this news is disappointing, our efforts to take NIST to task for its demonstrably false World Trade Center 7 report have served a critical strategic purpose.
Not only have we been able to further our mission of educating the public about the World Trade Center evidence by chasing NIST up the legal ladder, but in doing so we have shed light on a disturbing standard under which our federal government currently operates.
By cynically retreating from accountability for its WTC 7 report rather than address the merits of our evidence, our government has exposed the illusion that its conclusions on the matter are scientifically sound.
Along with that, NIST has laid bare for the American public the irresponsible and incomprehensible attitude with which it governs itself. It shows that it is not accountable to the citizens it serves and thinks it needn’t address or incorporate any evidence that clearly refutes its unscientific proclamations.
The ramifications of this standard are far reaching, impacting all matters in which policy and legislation are based on the scientific findings of the federal government, as well as the ability of citizens to seek redress for their government’s errors.
If scientific conclusions are subject to the political agendas of the federal agencies that produce them, then they are not practicing science.
Hence, the federal government has surrendered any notion that it has legitimate authority over matters of scientific dispute.
This is why we will continue to pursue justice, not only for the victims of September 11, 2001, through our advocacy for a new investigation into the World Trade disaster, but for the nation at large as we publicize and attempt to rectify this dangerous standard.
We at AE911Truth are lucky to have some of the most dedicated supporters in the world standing with us, and we will carry on our fight until true justice is served.
Thank you for partnering with us in this important campaign and for remaining our staunchest allies as we set foot on the next phase of our journey.
