Christopher Bollyn delivers the goods. In two volumes, the book and its supporting articles — tell all.
Bollyn names names and exposes the men behind curtains. He answers the questions of “who, where, when, what and how.” Bollyn embodies the hypothetical journalist from our college texts. The beau ideal. The one we are all supposed to write like but better not if we value our jobs, unbroken arms and professional reputations.
In the oceans of text about 9/11 that we have read since 2002, I posit that 80% of it has been culprit-funded disinformation. Bollyn’s adroitly written work lifts the veil of criminal perjury.
Bravely exposing the heinous hag of false flag terrorism, Bollyn’s book contains not one wasted word. I could not put it down until my eyes burned. With each morning’s coffee, eagerly did I grasp his body of work, anxious for more of his knowledge squarely owned. Knowledge squarely earned. This is the best journalist of my life.
We often hear the adage “when men were men” alluding to what manhood should mean in a day of cowards, sycophants and purchased politicians. After turning the last page of this book, I knew that I was holding the work of a man. A real man who had the guts to stand at the podium.
A man from the land of George Patton, Mike Delaney, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Zaid Hamid, Patrick Cleburne, John F. Kennedy and all their glorious class. They stand out for a reason. So lesser men can follow them in the right direction.
Over the last several years I have read the dive-bomb of Bollyn’s character assassination by disinfo agents. Some of whom wrote for the same newspaper we all did. It was not until I hit the same “controlled opposition” wall that I began to question what I believed about Christopher Bollyn.
He was their star journalist, fluent in Hebrew and Middle Eastern scholarship. A great photographer and public speaker. What’s not to like? How did he get suddenly fired from a rag that now purveys panic ads, lurid, dead-end fear mongering and only so much real news?
As my polished professors put it, “A journalist is in the business of truth telling.” He is to be a watch-dog over the government, reporting what he observes to his countrymen and to the world. As journalists we are not supposed to make it up as we go along. Nor fabricate headlines.
News happens. Then we write about it. That was how they taught me at the big school. But after graduation, I learned that it was only lip service.
Bollyn makes this clear in his book. He calls it “the controlled media.” And I shall add — a bound and gagged, arm-twisted media that writes lies to mislead a gullible public. Negating all the good rules of conduct we learned in journalism school. Rendering them null. Be a hack. Be a whore. Get a pay check.
Bollyn is the antithesis of today’s news writer. The signature of his work is how he goes straight to the horse for everything. His research is ever clear and properly sourced. Each word holds its own water.
As I have written before, the truth has a flavour.
Bollyn has it.
Get the clarion call of his book. The sobering answer to “The 9/11 Commission Report” — a pack of lies published by Norton for the government with no copyright date on the back of its title page – nor anywhere. 567 pages of hogwash. A flaming whopper of a tale. Authorized edition indeed. Replete with undated signatories, an eagle seal and “sick’um” photo of a turbin-headed scapegoat. Laughable, this doozy. “Final Report of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States.” So official sounding I suppose they thunk.
Christopher Bollyn’s book is a slam-dunk.

"Solving 9/11 The Deception That Changed The World" is an amazing book on the events of 9/11 that goes where few dare to tread! I consider Christopher Bollyn to be the preeminent researcher of the culprits behind 9/11. This book discusses some of the physical evidence, such as thermite used to bring down the Twin Towers. Where this book really stands out is in Bollyn's detailed analysis showing the Israeli, Mossad, and Mossad front companies connected to all parts of the events of 9/11. Wake up America, Muslims on planes did not pull off 9/11.
This book talks about everything from past false flag operations ran by Israel, to PTech and Gaurdium (Mossad front companies that sold software to the U.S. Gov. before 9/11), to the Odigo instant messages, and the dancing Israelis filming themselves infront of the burning rubble in NYC. This is a very well researched and multifaceted book.
For those interested in the physical evidence, I would also recommend viewing the dvd "9/11 Explosive Evidence Experts Speak
Out" by Architects and Engineers For 9/11 Truth. "Explosive Evidence" tells you how it happened, Bollyn's "Solving 9/11" book tells you who did it. Awesome.
I loved this book and am planning on buying Bollyn's companion volume "Solving 9/11 The Original Articles"; these are the articles that Bollyn has based this book I am reviewing on. I would definitely recommend this book to my friends. I have already recommended this book on a patriot radio broadcast on internet/KU band alternative radio that I was a quest host on recently. Definitely 5 stars!

Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2018
The book contains great research + very interesting details regarding who did 911 on an operational, also - partly - on a planning level and as to some of the aspects of the means that were used - namely the nano-thermite research. However the the total exclusion of all other background than the Mossad/Israel connection is very strange for a researcher who has contributed quite a lot to the 911 research - in particular to the proof of military grade nano thermite residue in the debris of the twin towers. I have only 2 explanation for it - either its a strong patriotic bias that only accepts foreigners as perpetrators - or - the author has decided - for personal safety reasons only to antagonize one major actor in this crime and not the obvious national partners as the cia. So its only 4 star for this book - still i recommend it to anyone who wants to get the full picture on what happend that day as it contains many details i have not found somewhere else - and - also to support the author who has gone through great hardship in his quest to bring more light into the matter.

5.0 out of 5 stars It was carried out by several government's agencies but Osama bin Laden was never involved.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 2, 2021
1e 4p 12MAY2014 pp.xxxvi+325 pbk. NO INDEX.The chronology is a bit muddled.
The author has a degree in history specialising in Palestine and Israel.
Cheney said there was never any evidence of Osama bin Laden's involvement and no arrest warrent was issued in relation to "9-11". This book is about Israeli relations with the Washington government (USG). It covers an extended period from the 1940s. The event must have taken years of planning according to German intelligence. Israel has been a terrorist state since 22 July1946 when elements of a party that would later rule Israel, blew up the King David Hotel in Jerusalem killing 91.
Yitzhak Rabin was in Dallas TX on the day of President Kennedy's assassination (1963). In 1967 he was the Israeli Defence Forces's (IDF) Chief of Staff.
In June 1967 the IDF attacked USS Liberty off the coast of Gaza killing 34 and injuring 173 more Americans.
On 23rd October 1983 241 US marines died from a truck bomb at their barracks in Beirut, Lebanon and 56 French troops were similarly killed nearby. This was an Israeli false-flag operation.
Planning was under way since 1979 or 1980 to bring terrorism to the USA. From the time of Nixon, Israeli nationals were allowed to occupy official posts in the USG provided they had a second US passport from the USA.
In 1980 an Israeli official, Oded Yinon, disclosed the Zionist plan to Balkanize (fragment) the entire Middle East. Netanyahu articulated for the War on Terror.
In 1987, an Israeli intelligence team received a contract to provide security for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.
In 1993 a WTC tower was attacked by a truck bomb, a false-flag operation by the FBI. As a result of that, the WTC security was transfered to an Israeli firm.
The 1994 sinking of the Estonia in the Baltic Sea, killing 852, was one of the earliest operations done under cover of a military expecise when all its emergency channels were jammed during a Search and Rescue exercise EX. COOPERATIVE VENTURE '94..
The 1996 shoot down of TWA 800 was also done under cover of a naval exercise. In August 1998 the US embassies in Tanzania and Kenya were attacked by bombs and Osama bin Laden was wanted for this but never for 9-11. In 1996 3 dominant presenters of NTSB investigations were Jewish.
In 1993, Kroll Associates, a Mossad front company, took over security of the WTC. The MD, Hauer, a Zionist Jew, appointed John O'Neill to head security for WTC. He was called back into the tower to die on 911. This allowed Mossad access to bring in demolition teams and explosives. They could turn off the CCTV during 9 months of lift maintenance when the power could be turned off.
The WTC 7 was owned by Larry Silverstein in July 2001. It is where the cities emergency centre was and it was evacuated during the incident along with every one else.
The Israeli company. ICTS, owned the airport security company, Huntley USA, which was responsible for all 3 airports where thw high jacked aircraft departed from.They could let anyone on.
Typical of the other false-flag operations, miilitary excercises were run to camouflage events and confuse the witnesses. 9-11 was on day-2 of EX. VIGILANT GUARDIAN and 2 other exercises. It involved civilian ATC by disguising the high jacked and hidden aircraft.
The Mossad owned messaging app. Ogido, two hours before the first crash messaged to warned Jews, in Hebrew, to avoid going to the WTC towers. Only one Jew was killed in the towers that day.
The first crash was into the WTC 1, North Tower, in the March & McLennan secure computer room.
The second crash was into the WTC 2, South Tower in the 81st floor housing Fuji Bank. In 1999 the floors were reinforced to carry heavy batteries but they were never used (possibly a cache of explosives).
Within an hour Ehud Barak, ex-Israeli prime minister, in London on BBC World announced it was due to Osama bin Laden and proposed a War on Terror and that the USA should go to war against Afghanistan which they did in October.
The south tower was hit by a Boeing 767-300 converted to fuel tanker use by ICTS in Florida. The FBI confiscxated all metal parts that had identifying numbers on them. The FBI never released any of their evidence.
Five Mossad agents were arrested while observing and videoing the destruction of the towers but were released about 100 days later on request of the Israeli ambassador. Three later admitted to Israeli TV their involvement with 911. Altogether 200 Jews were arrested in relation to these events.
Excluding the 147 passengers on the aircraft who were assumed to be murdered, 2729 were killed in the 2 WTC towers of which only one was a Jew. Most of the workers in the towers were not Americans but foreigners. Normally hundreds of Jews also worked there.
Ther BBC announced the fall of WTC 7, 26 mins before it actually fell/blew up. Did they have a copy of the script? The media was controlled. Rupert Murdoch, a Jew, owned FOX News. Gerald M Levin bought CNN and Michael D Eisener was CEO of Disney which owned ABC News. There were no TV investigations of 911 except for one series on FOX.
The 911 commission ignored the WTC 7 collapse. Explosions were reported by many in the South Tower before it fell. This includes BBC reports. The media censored mention to these explosions. Explosions were detected in siesmic data . Molten metal was discovered in the rubble of the towers including WTC 7 with which no aircraft crashed into. The iron was evidence of Thermite explosives/bombs. A blue smoke of aluminium particles was seen coming off the rubble for about 4 months. More evidence of Thermite explosives. The EPA did not investigate desplte the particles were of a dangerous size of 90-260 nanometer diameter. This could have been the cause of hundreds of casulties from the workers at the rubble sites.
Of the three federal judges to investigate for the 911 commission, they were all dedicated zionists.
Ninety six families sued for compensation, all refused compensation to allow a trial to investigate the 911 events but the authoriies refused to go to trial.
Assistant Attorney Gereral in the FBI, a Israeli/US dual national and dedicated Zionist was responsible for confiscation and destruction of the 9-11 criminal evidence including the WTC steel.
Two Israeli companies were responsible for exporting 250,000 tons of scrap from the WTC site including 156.000 tons of steel to avoid examination.
The Israeli control extended both to the main political parties of the US and also Britain's Labour party as they controlled the funding of PM Blair and PM Brown. The recent row over Jeremy Corbin was due to him not being under their control and they mounted a coup against him.
Later there was the alternative 77 event staged in London. On the 7th July (77) 2005 a bomb exercise was underway organised by an ex-MI 5 agent.to cover another false flag-event. 4 bombs killed many in the underground and on a bus. The asians were recruited by MI-5 to deliver the explosives.
But what are the American motuves for the deaths. You can read Michael C. Ruppert's Crossing the Rubicon to find out why. And what happened to the crews and passengers on the 4 high jacked aircraft. You can view Rebekah Roth's youtube videos and read her 4 books in the Methodical series to read why the aircrews did not follow their training and attack the high jackers with fire extinguishers and other weapons and why the pilots did not send out verbal and electronic warnings.

If you look for information about Israeli involvement in 9/11, you will find many pieces, and very well detailed.

Reviewed in Canada on April 19, 2016
This, by far, is the most interesting book ( among the several) I have read about 9/11 . I think the author has made an excellent case by reporting names etc. of the guilty at every important junction along the way. And, the book would offer a road map to any prosecutor who had the guts to seriously take on an investigation and indict the suspects.
Christopher Bollyn is to be congratulated for writing and publishing this book in the face of staggering opposition . He dares to spit in the eye of the dragon as he names names and explains exactly how this attack on the twin towers was/is, a false flag event that needs to be exposed . The fact that the Obama Administration did nothing to reveal the cover up of what really happened on 9/11 is just more proof that it was an inside job used to create a provocation for the USA and its coalition of the supporting allies to attack Afghanistan, Iraq et al and continue the spread of USA Imperialism world wide.
9/11 should be investigated by honest people and the Bush Administration along with the actual murderers who physically carried out the assault should be indicted, tried and if found guilty, executed for treason .
If you read one book in your life, it should be this one !

5.0 out of 5 stars Hier geht's ans Eingemachte
Reviewed in Germany on November 1, 2012
Was sich in der Gedankenwelt eines Menschen konstituiert, wenn er gerade ein Buch liest oder kurz zuvor eines gelesen hat, hängt von nichts so sehr ab als davon, welche Bücher und sonstige Schriften er bis dahin bereits gelesen hat.
Ich habe vor der Lektüre dieses Buches zumindest einen ausgedehnten Blick in schon so manches Buch zum Thema 9/11 geworfen. Die Zweifel, ob etwas dadurch wahrer wird, weil es in mehreren Schriften übereinstimmend geschildert wird, bleiben. Wer weiss schon, ob verschiedene Verfasser auch voneinander unabhängig ermittelt haben? Was ist Wahrheit? Die überwiegende Mehrheit der am Markt kursierenden Bücher zu 9/11 hält sich an eine klare Rollenteilung aus Affirmation und Vorbehalt. Als bewiesn gilt dort nur die intrinsische Widersprüchlichkeit der offiziellen Erklärungen für die Ereignisse vom 11. September 2001 und damit deren Unmöglichkeit, wahr zu sein. Eine schlüssige alternative Erklärung wird aber auch bei akribisch ermittelter Faktenlage um technische Details nicht abgegeben. Das hat vielen 9/11-Autoren auch schon den Vorwurf eingetragen, nichts als Zweifel anbieten zu können. Kombiniert damit, dass die daraufhin angebotenen Alternativtheorien auch schon in Einzelaspekten widerlegt werden oder als ganze auf ihren Status der unbewiesenen, weil nicht ohne weiteres beweisbaren Behauptung zurückgestuft werden konnten, hat sich dieser Vorwurf für manchen Autor im öffentlichen Auftritt auch schon als Falle erwiesen. Wer in seinem öffentlichen Ansehen unbeschadet davon kommen wollte, musste solche Einlassungen meiden.
Ganz anders Christopher Bollyn. Sein Buch in überspitzter Kurzfassung könnte heissen: Sag mir, was du technisch benötigst für einen von einem Geheimdienst mit perfekter Tarnung verübten Anschlag zum 11.9.2001, und ich gehe allen Aspekten nach. Dass die Regierungsversion von vorne bis hinten gelogen ist, ist sowieso klar. Nun liefere ich dir, mein Leser, zu jedem kausalen Zusammenhang für das Herbeiführen der Anschläge und ihrer Vorbereitungen den vollständig und bis an sein anderes Ende aufgedröselten Strang. Und siehe da: Es sind am andern Ende ausnahmslos Menschen und Organisationen, die in mehr oder weniger offenkundiger Beziehung zu jenem eingeschworenen Zirkel Gewaltbereiter stehen, der in der kritischen Anfangsphase und z.T. bis heute Entscheidendes zur Entstehung und zum Erstarken des Staates Israel beigetragen hat.
Ob das alles am Ende nicht doch zu aalglatt, zu homogen ist, um wahr sein zu können? Das weiss man nicht. Und das kann man auch noch eine gute Zeit lang nicht wissen. Jedenfalls nicht, solange den Forschern auf diesem Gebiet durch die Sicherheitsbehörden der USA der Zugang zu entscheidenden Quellen, die Einvernahme entscheidender Zeugen verwehrt wird. Eine vorsichtige, zurückhaltende Schrift zum 11. September 2001 kommt auf jeden Fall anders daher. In Christopher Bollyn begnet man einem Autor, der nicht wenige Zusammenhänge zu 9/11 als einer der ersten recherchiert und veröffentlicht hat und sich offenbar nie zu schade war, sich dabei die Hände schmutzig zu machen und die Finger zu verbrennen. Den Schwierigkeiten mit den örtlichen Justizbehörden konnte er sich nach einem gebrochen Arm und einer Zeit im Gefängnis jedenfalls offenbar am besten durch Auswandern entziehen. Das alleine sagt schon viel aus.
Der besondere Wert des Buches kommt in zwei Aspekten besonders zur Geltung: Zum einen dürfte man mit diesem Buch wohl getrost den "rechten" Rand des Spektrums an seriös recherchierter Literatur zu 9/11 markieren. Der Autor hätte wahrscheinlich nichts dagegen. Wer sich betont ausgewogen informieren und in öffentlichen Diskussionen nicht in die Antisemitismus-Ecke gedrängt werden will, der sollte sich sein Argumentationsspektrum zumindest auch noch aus gemässigteren Büchern bzw. vom anderen Ende des Spektrums (wie z.B. Matthias Bröckers, David Ray Griffin oder Mike Ruppert) holen. In all der Mässigung ginge aber der zweite, mindestens so wichtige Punkt unter oder verloren. Die Suche nach der Wahrheit zum 11. September 2001 wird auf ihrem nun folgenden Wegabschnitt nicht ohne die Bewältigung massiver innerer und äusserer Konfrontationen auskommen. Die drei Grundmuster "Langley!", "Mossad!" und "...nichts Genaues weiss man leider immer noch nicht..." sind jedes für sich zu simpel oder zu ohnmächtig. Die gegenseitige Blockade führt zu jenem Stillstand, der nur das Anliegen der Gegenseite bedient. In der Bewältigung der Konfrontation liegt die Chance zur Überwindung der Unvereinbarkeiten unterschiedlicher Theorien.
So ist dieses Buch für vorsichtig neugierig gewordene Leser, die bis kurz davor treu an die offizielle Theorie geglaubt haben, wahrscheinlich eine ziemliche Schocktherapie, also ultimativ heilsam. Von eingefleischten Wahrheitssuchenden aus dem "Langley!"-Lager sollte es mit sportlichem Ehrgeiz als Pflichtlektüre aufgefasst werden. Wer dieses Buch liest und sich öffentlich Gehör verschaffen kann, indem er es in Einzelpunkten sachlich widerlegt, trägt etwas Wesentliches zur Wahrheitsfindung bei. Je länger die steilen Thesen und fast rauschhaften Schilderungen dieses Buches unangefochten im Raume stehen, desto steiler sollten sich unseren Politikern die Nackenhaare stellen. Denn, wenn das alles so war, wie in diesem Buch beschrieben, kann man die Wahrheit tatsächlich nur entweder waffenstarrend verdecken oder arglos unter die Leute bringen und mit ansehen, wie die Worte eines Mahmud Ahmadinedschad auf einmal ganz neue Bedeutung bekommen.
Also ein Buch, dessen Strahlkraft schwer zu überschätzen ist. Definitiv nichts für Leute, die weiterhin gut schlafen wollen.
Ich habe vor der Lektüre dieses Buches zumindest einen ausgedehnten Blick in schon so manches Buch zum Thema 9/11 geworfen. Die Zweifel, ob etwas dadurch wahrer wird, weil es in mehreren Schriften übereinstimmend geschildert wird, bleiben. Wer weiss schon, ob verschiedene Verfasser auch voneinander unabhängig ermittelt haben? Was ist Wahrheit? Die überwiegende Mehrheit der am Markt kursierenden Bücher zu 9/11 hält sich an eine klare Rollenteilung aus Affirmation und Vorbehalt. Als bewiesn gilt dort nur die intrinsische Widersprüchlichkeit der offiziellen Erklärungen für die Ereignisse vom 11. September 2001 und damit deren Unmöglichkeit, wahr zu sein. Eine schlüssige alternative Erklärung wird aber auch bei akribisch ermittelter Faktenlage um technische Details nicht abgegeben. Das hat vielen 9/11-Autoren auch schon den Vorwurf eingetragen, nichts als Zweifel anbieten zu können. Kombiniert damit, dass die daraufhin angebotenen Alternativtheorien auch schon in Einzelaspekten widerlegt werden oder als ganze auf ihren Status der unbewiesenen, weil nicht ohne weiteres beweisbaren Behauptung zurückgestuft werden konnten, hat sich dieser Vorwurf für manchen Autor im öffentlichen Auftritt auch schon als Falle erwiesen. Wer in seinem öffentlichen Ansehen unbeschadet davon kommen wollte, musste solche Einlassungen meiden.
Ganz anders Christopher Bollyn. Sein Buch in überspitzter Kurzfassung könnte heissen: Sag mir, was du technisch benötigst für einen von einem Geheimdienst mit perfekter Tarnung verübten Anschlag zum 11.9.2001, und ich gehe allen Aspekten nach. Dass die Regierungsversion von vorne bis hinten gelogen ist, ist sowieso klar. Nun liefere ich dir, mein Leser, zu jedem kausalen Zusammenhang für das Herbeiführen der Anschläge und ihrer Vorbereitungen den vollständig und bis an sein anderes Ende aufgedröselten Strang. Und siehe da: Es sind am andern Ende ausnahmslos Menschen und Organisationen, die in mehr oder weniger offenkundiger Beziehung zu jenem eingeschworenen Zirkel Gewaltbereiter stehen, der in der kritischen Anfangsphase und z.T. bis heute Entscheidendes zur Entstehung und zum Erstarken des Staates Israel beigetragen hat.
Ob das alles am Ende nicht doch zu aalglatt, zu homogen ist, um wahr sein zu können? Das weiss man nicht. Und das kann man auch noch eine gute Zeit lang nicht wissen. Jedenfalls nicht, solange den Forschern auf diesem Gebiet durch die Sicherheitsbehörden der USA der Zugang zu entscheidenden Quellen, die Einvernahme entscheidender Zeugen verwehrt wird. Eine vorsichtige, zurückhaltende Schrift zum 11. September 2001 kommt auf jeden Fall anders daher. In Christopher Bollyn begnet man einem Autor, der nicht wenige Zusammenhänge zu 9/11 als einer der ersten recherchiert und veröffentlicht hat und sich offenbar nie zu schade war, sich dabei die Hände schmutzig zu machen und die Finger zu verbrennen. Den Schwierigkeiten mit den örtlichen Justizbehörden konnte er sich nach einem gebrochen Arm und einer Zeit im Gefängnis jedenfalls offenbar am besten durch Auswandern entziehen. Das alleine sagt schon viel aus.
Der besondere Wert des Buches kommt in zwei Aspekten besonders zur Geltung: Zum einen dürfte man mit diesem Buch wohl getrost den "rechten" Rand des Spektrums an seriös recherchierter Literatur zu 9/11 markieren. Der Autor hätte wahrscheinlich nichts dagegen. Wer sich betont ausgewogen informieren und in öffentlichen Diskussionen nicht in die Antisemitismus-Ecke gedrängt werden will, der sollte sich sein Argumentationsspektrum zumindest auch noch aus gemässigteren Büchern bzw. vom anderen Ende des Spektrums (wie z.B. Matthias Bröckers, David Ray Griffin oder Mike Ruppert) holen. In all der Mässigung ginge aber der zweite, mindestens so wichtige Punkt unter oder verloren. Die Suche nach der Wahrheit zum 11. September 2001 wird auf ihrem nun folgenden Wegabschnitt nicht ohne die Bewältigung massiver innerer und äusserer Konfrontationen auskommen. Die drei Grundmuster "Langley!", "Mossad!" und "...nichts Genaues weiss man leider immer noch nicht..." sind jedes für sich zu simpel oder zu ohnmächtig. Die gegenseitige Blockade führt zu jenem Stillstand, der nur das Anliegen der Gegenseite bedient. In der Bewältigung der Konfrontation liegt die Chance zur Überwindung der Unvereinbarkeiten unterschiedlicher Theorien.
