Earth into Property

These You Tubes embody and express different aspects of the collaboration between Professor Anthony J. Hall and Joshua Blakeney in the Globalization Studies unit at the University of Lethbridge in the southern portion of the Canadian province of Alberta. Earth into Property combines excerpts of the book launch of Hall’s text of the same name with a Blackfoot naming ceremony at the International Peace Pow Wow in Lethbridge. The broad-ranging topics explored in the team’s most technically-ambitious You Tube to date suggest the scope of Hall’s recent book, Earth into Property. One of these topics is the lies and crimes of 9/11, an issue emphasized in Joshua’s filmed introduction of Hall. There are, lamentably, few institutions of higher learning willing to host and protect the academic pursuit of genuine 9/11 scepticism as opposed to the pseudo-skepticism epitomized by psy op specialist Michael Shermer.

Both Blakeney and Hall acknowledge that the University of Lethbridge has respected their academic freedom to pursue scholarly subjects that tragically have been ignored, resisted or outright censored in some academic venues such as the University of Wisconsin. We were especially pleased that the U of L’s Vice-President Academic, Prof. Andrew Hakin, stepped up to the plate to deliver a stirring endorsement of the quality of Professor Hall’s scholarship.

Pushing For the Arrest in British Columbia of George W. Bush for War Crimes

This You Tube was filmed on May 2nd at the City Hall of Surrey, British Columbia. Surrey is part of the Greater Vancouver Area. At the demonstration Hall and Blakeney were joined by, among others, the inimitable Mohawk Warrior, Splitting the Sky. STS led our intervention with various officials. Travis Ball was also instrumental in organizing this public demonstration to assert the principle that credibly accused war criminal George W. Bush is not welcome in Canada and should be arrested on arrival in the country next October 20th. Hall, Blakeney and their associates thus served notice to those who invited the former US presidents to visit Canada for an economic summit that they had made a terrible mistake. The invitation originally came from the Surrey Mayor Diane Watts. This action in Surrey represents an extension of the activism culminating in a protest in March of 2009 in Calgary, Alberta while George W. Bush addressed an oil-patch audience in the commercial capital of Texas North. In organizing for the protest in 2009, Hall authored a widely-disseminated essay explaining why George Bush should be arrested in Calgary and charged with committing a host of international crimes including torture. When law enforcement officers in Canada refused to do their job in 2009 by arresting Bush not only for the violation of many international laws, conventions and treaties but also for violating Canada’s own Crimes Against Humanity and War Crimes Act (2000), Splitting the Sky attempted a citizens arrest for which he was tried and convicted of obstructing a police officer.

We hope that by next autumn the international coalition that began to coalesce around our Arrest Bush initiative in Alberta will deepen and expand, building upon the important help rendered by Cynthia McKinney and Ramsay Clark. President Barack Obama can expect similar treatment from citizens of all countries who are no longer willing to tolerate the organized criminality that, more than ever before, has become the stock in trade of the US Executive Branch.

An Exchange on 9/11 Between Prof. Niels Harrit, Prof. Anthony Hall and Ms. Pernille Grumme

Hall and Blakeney made this You Tube last February when they were in Edmonton, Alberta to listen to the lecture of Professor Niels Harrit, Professor of Chemistry at the University of Copenhagen. Professor Harrit is one of the world’s foremost authorities on the controlled demolitions on 9/11 of the three World Trade Center buildings in New York. With Blakeney filming Hall, Harrit and his wife, Pernille Grumme, sat down in the Sir Winston Churchill Square to discuss the culture of deceit and corruption nurtured by the wide complicity of many kinds of professionals, but especially professors, journalists and politicians, in the lies and crimes of 9/11. During the conversation comparisons were made to the experience of Europeans during the period of Axis Rule. In those times as now, many ruling elites as well as middle managers would not take responsibility for the horrendous crimes against humanity taking place in their midst and in their name. In the course of the conversation Hall came up with his first articulation of the global scope of the Tahrir Square Freedom Movement. The crimes of Hosne Mubarak against his own people were not an isolated phenomenon but merely one part of a global regime of oppression orchestrated by the agents of imperial rule concentrated in Washington and Tel-Aviv.
