Why Does Counterpunch.org Deny US Government Complicity In The 911 Attacks?
Why does Counterpunch.org so vigorously deny US government foreknowledge and complicity in the 911 attacks?
We stumbled across this plausible explanation here, reposted verbatim below.

Scientology is a government mind control program cleverly masquerading as a “religion” or “church.” It’s the ultimate capitalist religion: pay for self-improvement and spiritual advancement.

The timeline of CIA mind control research, interrogation techniques, hypnosis, and forced hallucinogens and opiates begand with Project BLUEBIRD in 1951-1953. Project ARTICHOKE arose from Project BLUEBIRD in 1951. Project MKUltra began in 1953. Dianetics was published in 1952 by L. Ron Hubbard. Though Wikipedia has some decent writeups on each, the declassified documents confirm the existence of these sick projects.

A PBS documentary links Cheney and Rumsfeld to Project Artichoke via the death of a CIA MKUltra research scientist:

Save the above www pages, as they have a nasty habit of disappearing from the web and from Google’s cache.
An interesting side note: there is a Scientology “Bunker” in Petrolia, CA, home of the (usually) hard-hitting Counterpunch.org.

There are several other Scientology “bunkers” as well.
Strangely enough, Alexander Cockburn one of its two main editors, has been very defensive of Scientology, and equally critical of people who correctly suspect US government foreknowledge and complicity in the 9-11 attacks. Why does Cockburn go so far to dismiss the overwhelming evidence of US government complicity in the 911 attacks?

So, is Cockburn a Scientologist, is he simply under CIA mind control, or does he take $$$ from the “Church” of Scientology nearby, thus biasing his reporting?
