Last Man Out: An Evening with September 11th Hero
William Rodriguez
“Last Man Out” of World Trade Center Tower #1 Recounts his Chilling and Provocative Story and his Lingering Questions
Daily, William Rodriguez met with co-workers for breakfast at the Windows on the World Restaurant on the 106th floor of World Trade Center Tower #1. Nearly two hundred people, most of William’s friends, were in the restaurant on the morning of September 11. None of them survived.
For nearly twenty years, the Puerto Rican-born, New Jersey resident was a custodian in-charge of the three stairwells — A, B and C — in the North Tower. In possession of the master key that opened all of the stairwell doors at each floor in the 110 story building, William Rodriguez personally saved the lives of 15 people that day and aided NYC firefighters in saving hundreds of others. Having told his chilling account to thousands of people across the globe, he comes to Columbus sharing his stories of heroic and selfless first responders, his personal witness to explosions in the sub-basements “before” the plane hit the north tower and during the rescue efforts, and tales of strange noises coming from the vacant and restricted 34th floor.
Honored five times by President Bush, William Rodriguez has helped draft and implement legislation on behalf of members, in demanding the creation of the 9/11 Commission, during which his testimony was kept private and mysteriously excluded from its final report.
William Rodriguez has electrified audiences in Europe, Asia, and South America, and his uncompromising candor and heroism promises to be a night you will never forget.
When: 7pm
Where: The King Arts Complex - Grand Ballroom, 867 Mt. Vernon Ave. Columbus, OH 43203
Tuesday, September 25th, 2007
Dr. David Ray Griffin: “9/11, Evidence, and Faith”
Prominent theologian & 9/11 Truth Movement leader to speak in Columbus.
Dr. Griffin is Professor Emeritus of Philosophy and Theology at Claremont School of Theology and Claremont Graduate University, and co-director of the Center for Process Studies.
He has written four books on the subject of 9/11, including “The New Pearl Harbor” (2004), “The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions and Distortions” (2005) ,”Christian Faith and the Truth Behind 9/11” (2006), and “Debunking 9/11 Debunking: An Answer to Popular Mechanics and Other Defenders of the Official Conspiracy Theory” (2007).
He is co-editor with Peter Dale Scott of “9/11 and American Empire: Intellectuals Speak Out” Vol. I (2007), which bears this note from Paul Craig Roberts, former assistant secretary of the US Treasury and editorial writer for the Wall Street Journal:
“This is the most important book of our time. Distinguished national and international scientists and scholars present massive evidence that the 9/11 Commission Report is a hoax and that the “terrorist attack” has been manipulated to serve a hegemonic agenda in the Middle East. The book’s call for a truly independent panel of experts to be empowered to bring out the true facts must be heeded or Americans will never again live under accountable government.”
The following commendation of Griffin’s work is from the late Reverend William Sloan Coffin:
“Professor David Ray Griffin has a well-deserved reputation for the thoroughness of his research. All Americans who love their country enough to dig into the facts of these critical times will be well rewarded for examining his books. 9/11 truth is a very important issue–one with the power to bring lasting change to our country.”

Screening of 9/11 Press For Truth
Presented by the Columbus Free Press
Out of the grieving thousands left behind on September 11th, a small group of activist families emerged to demand answers. In 9/11 Press For Truth, six of them (including three of the famous “Jersey Girls”) tell for the first time the powerful story of how they took on the powers in Washington— and won!— compelling an investigation, only to subsequently watch the 9/11 Commission fail in answering most of their questions.

Dr. Bowman is a former Director of Advanced Space Programs Development for the U.S. Air Force in the Ford and Carter administrations, a former United States Air Force Lieutenant Colonel, and holds a Ph.D. in Aeronautics and Nuclear Engineering from the California Institute of Technology.
He will explain why we need a government that:
- Follows the Constitution
- Honors the Truth, and
- Serves the People.
Think what a difference that would make! No more imperial presidency. No more undeclared wars of aggression. No more spying on the American people. No more jailing of dissidents. No more corporations importing and exploiting millions of illegal immigrants to drive down wages. No more exporting of jobs. No more NAFTA. No more North American Union. No more government lies, false-flag attacks, and cover-ups. No more corporate welfare. No more health plans written by insurance companies and pharmaceutical manufacturers. No more energy policies written by Exxon and Enron. No more trillions in debt. Most importantly, no more using our sons and daughters to kill Arabs for the oil companies.
Please join us for this event, and let’s “Take Back America!“

April Fool’s Day Teach In & Film Showing
Featuring: TerrorStorm by Alex Jones
TerrorStorm delivers a powerful sucker punch to the architects of global terrorism and how they stage false-flag events to achieve political and sociological ends.
Alex journeys from the depths of history from the Gulf of Tonkin, the USS Liberty and Gladio through to the Madrid and 7/7 London bombings and robustly catalogs the real story behind the government induced fable.
This film contains viable solutions on how we can reclaim human dignity and freedom and prevent the global population from becoming the slaves of a prison planet.

Protest 4 years of Iraq Occupation
This Sunday it will be 4 years since the United States ILLEGALLY and IMMORALLY invaded Iraq, using September 11th as justification.
Since then we have lost over 3,209 US soldiers, over 23,785 have been maimed and injured, anywhere from 100,000-655,000 Iraqi civilians have been killed, over 2 MILLION Iraqis fortunate enough to get out alive are now refugees, and over $408 BILLION has been spent.
AND FOR WHAT?
Join us for a day of protest, music, speakers, and unity. A day to refuel, remember what we’re up against, and what wonderful people we have in the trenches with us. It’s all ages and a meager $2 will get you in.

Dr. James Fetzer “9/11: What We Know Now That We Didn’t Know Then”
The Columbus Chapter of World Can’t Wait and Columbus 9/11 Truth will be hosting Dr. James Fetzer for a speaking event about 9/11 Truth. Fetzer is the founder and co-chair of Scholars for 9/11 Truth, a non-partisan association of faculty, students, and scholars dedicated to exposing falsehoods and to revealing truths behind 9/11.
A prominent figure in the 9/11 Truth Movement, Dr. Fetzer supports the assertion that elements within the U.S. federal government orchestrated the September 11th, 2001 attacks for political and economic gain. The truth behind 9/11 brings into question the entire Neo-Con agenda of preemptive war and the alleged ‘war on terror.’ This is an integral part of the anti-war movement and vital to repudiating the Bush regime.

Dr. Kevin Barrett - Book signings for his newly-released book: 9/11 & American Empire: Christians, Jews, and Muslims Speak Out
From Amazon.com: Inspired by David Ray Griffin’s internationally acclaimed book The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions about the Bush Administration and 9/11, this anthology presents a variety of perspectives on 9/11 and empire from authors who identify with one of the major Abrahamic traditions.
Co-edited by a major Christian theologian (John Cobb), a Jewish scholar (Sandra Lubarsky), and a Muslim scholar (Kevin Barrett), the book features essays by 9/11 revisionists and activists alongside those of noted writers and scholars, including several of the leading religious intellectuals of our time. The writers offer reflections on 9/11 and empire informed by the moral principles of their religious traditions as well as by the obligation to engage in thoughtful dialogue with those of other traditions. While the question of of the Bush administration’s and U.S. military and intelligence leaders’ possible complicity in 9/11 — and the moral implications of facing that possibility — is at the forefront of the book’s agenda, it also addresses the way 9/11 has been used to expand the U.S. empire’s “global domination project” — raising profound moral questions that confront all of us, whatever our views on 9/11 complicity and whatever our faith, worldview, or national/ethnic identification.
Signing Locations:

Barrett will carefully deconstruct the official 9/11 story alongside clean, clear science. The 9/11 picture he presents is not one of politics or nationalism, but one of strict and simple physics. Dr. Barrett will be lecturing on academic freedom issues and their bearing on his analysis of the common misconceptions of the events of September 11th, 2001. Dr. Barrett has studied the political and historical context, forensic evidence, and eyewitness testimony, and has analyzed the psychological and sociological dimensions of 9/11.
