9 versus 230

Nine Americans with dual Mexican citizenship were ruthlessly murdered last week by members of a Mexican drug cartel.  Six of them were young children, who died with their mothers.  There is evidence that at least one of the women was raped prior to being placed back in the vehicle, which was then set afire, burning to death two small children strapped in their car seats, and anyone else not killed by the initial gunfire.  All this occurred less than 100 miles south of the U.S./Mexico border with Arizona.  Rightfully so, the national media and the American public were outraged by this awful act.

Twenty-three years ago, on July 17, 1996, 230 people died a horrific death when TWA 800 exploded 13 minutes after it departed Kennedy Airport in New York on a flight to Paris. Because the media in that case didn’t do it’s job, by questioning the information which was being released by various federal agencies and the Clinton administration, the true cause of the crash was covered up.

There is a great deal of evidence, including testimony from hundreds of eyewitnesses, many of them extremely credible, that the airplane was shot down by surface to air missiles fired from two separate locations.  None of this testimony was allowed to be included in the “Probable Cause” report published by the NTSB. Evidence was allegedly tampered with by members of the FBI, who had taken over the accident investigation from the NTSB in an unappreciated action.  That action, plus others by the CIA, the NTSB’s politically appointed leadership, and members of the DOJ, were condoned by President Clinton and members of his cabinet.

This was one of the first incidents of what has become known as  “Deep State” activities by non-elected individuals, acting because of purely political motivations, to affect our country in extremely adverse ways.  We cannot, indeed must not, allow this to happen.

 I am currently attempting to get the NTSB to reopen the TWA 800 investigation.  The only way this will happen is if President Trump orders Robert L. Sumwalt, the NTSB Chairman he appointed in 2017, to act in this matter.  If you care about truth and justice in this country.  If you feel that every action taken by any member of our government to subvert in any way the application of due process and standard protocols simply to gain a political goal, then I highly recommend that you contact your Congressional representatives and President Trump and ask that they support the reopening of this case.

It is said that justice delayed is justice denied.  The victims of the crash of TWA 800 were members of both political parties.  Their deaths affected their families and friends in negative ways, regardless of their political affiliation, so this isn’t a political issue.  It is instead about truth, and our ability to trust in our government, no matter which party is in control.  If we lose that, we lose our country.  It isn’t about 9 versus 230.  It’s about right versus wrong, good versus evil.  The American public should be outraged anytime evil is allowed to prevail.
