Able Danger Debuts at Brooklyn Film Festival

SPREAD THE WORD! ABLE DANGER FILM
A new 9/11-based feature film called Able Danger will be opening the Brooklyn International Film Festival on May 30th at 8pm at the Brooklyn Lyceum. (See time and location details below.)
Able Danger was filmed at Vox Pop, The Farm, Club 7 and several houses and streets in Victorian Flatbush, Brooklyn. It is a 9/11 conspiracy theory femme fatale driven noir thriller, where a Brooklyn 9/11 truther (loosely based on the work of Sander Hicks) falls into a noir pastiche.
Thomas Flynn, the idealist owner of a left-leaning radical cafe-bookstore and the quixotic publisher of a hard-hitting 9/11 conspiracy expose, finds himself entangled with a mysterious Eastern European beauty, Kasia, who is on the run from the architects of a global 9/11 cover-up, in this contemporary take on classic film noir. When Thomas is implicated in the murder of his friend and employee, he's forced to unravel Kasia's complex web of lies while attempting to fight his natural attraction to her. As it turns out, Kasia possesses the smoking gun that proves the identities and methods of the real architects of 9/11, and Thomas is willing to risk everything to expose the truth.The film is based on the fact of an official unit called Able Danger, comprised of United States intelligence personnel. The unit observed ringleader Mohammed Atta and his hijackers, but was not allowed to provide the FBI and later the 9/11 Commission with their data. More than a year before the attacks on 11 September 2001 it destroyed the gathered information, worth 2.5 terabytes, equal to one fourth of the printed books in the Library of Congress. In reality, says Webster Tarpley, author of Synthetic Terror - Made in USA, Able Danger took care of the hijackers in order for the group to be the real life cover story for 9/11. You are cordially invited to attend.
Please buy a ticket online at http://brooklynfilmfestival.org/films/detail.asp?fid=866 (because knock on wood it will sell out fast like it did at Rotterdam and will be hard to get tix)
AND….come to the opening ceremony at 7:30 and stay for the movie at 8pm and the after-movie party at 10pm. The price of admission ($25) is steep for a movie because it includes all the Stella you can drink and food at the party.

Prepare for the Thought Police

You did see this coming, right? All those bad dreams are coming home in the middle of the day. From now on, any thought that doesn't conform to a romp in a drug commercial must be squeezed out of consciousness or else face the consequences of what, the Spanish Inquisition?
