It’s Too Costly to Tell the Truth, So Few Do

Someone sent me a copy of a book, Empire of Lies, by Charles Goyette published by the Libertarian Institute in 2025. Perhaps the book was sent to me because Goyette borrowed the title from my book, Empire of Lies, published in 2023.

The single virtue of Goyette’s Book is the compilation of some of the lies that Washington told Americans and the world so far in the 21st century.  The lies about Iraq and Saddam Hussein’s alleged weapons of mass destruction. The lies about Bashar Assad and Syria’s alleged use of chemical weapons. The lies about Libya and Gaddafi. The lies about Somalia and Sudan. The lies about Lebanon. Many more lies are on the way.

 But Goyette does not mention the lies about 9/11. That is a bridge too far.

Neither does Goyette tell us why we were told all of these lies that he collects. It is almost as if it was Washington’s way of having fun with us.

In my opinion, Goyette and the Libertarian Institute looked at the cost of telling all of the truth and decided it was too high. To enter into combat with the Israel lobby has always been a losing proposition, as Tucker Carlson and Candice Owens are yet to find out.

Goyette avoids the attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon because the attack was the avenue used by Vice President Cheney, the Zionist neo-conservatives who staffed up the George W. Bush presidency, and Israel to create a “new Pearl Harbor” in order to create the fiction of a “war on terror” used to eliminate at the expense of American blood and money Muslim countries opposed to Greater Israel. At the time Greater Israel consisted of the territory from the Nile river to the Euphrates river in Iraq. More recently, Israeli government officials have expanded greater Israel’s claims to be from the Nile to Pakistan.

The implausibility of the official narrative of 9/11 and it’s total repudiation by scientific studies by objective uncompromised scientists independent of government contracts, and it’s disavowal by the chairman, co-chairman and legal council of the 911 Commission who wrote books saying that the Commission was set up to fail and evidence was withheld. This was a huge story that the American whore media totally ignored. 

We even have the famous scene of the BBC reporter standing in front of the still standing Building Seven reporting that the building had joined the towers in collapse. Building Seven did not fall until about 30 minutes after the announcement of its demise. Clearly, it was known that the building was to be destroyed, and the story was given to the whore media before the event occurred. Silverstein, who had the insurance on the buildings in a clever way so that he received twice the insured amount on the grounds that it was two separate attacks, announced on TV that the “decision was made to pull the building.” The American whore media ignored the confession. And so does Goyette. It is too costly to tell the whole truth, so few do.

I do not mean this as a criticism of Goyette. I understand that there is a limit to how many official narratives one can dissent from without being dismissed as a “conspiracy theorist” and/or an “antisemite.” The real message of Goyette’s book is Israel’s power to shut down truth-tellers despite the First Amendment.
