In the days, weeks and months after 9/11 people living and working in lower Manhattan were told the air was safe to breathe. Now, we know that was not true.

In April 2023, The Grayzone exposed how Riyadh recruited then managed two would-be hijackers on behalf of the CIA
Twenty five years on, the mainstream media’s determination to reinforce the official story of 9/11 appears to be finally cracking. Major news outlets are now reporting on an ongoing civil suit in a New York court against Omar Bayoumi, long-accused of being the Saudi intelligence handler of 9/11 hijackers Nawaf Hazmi and Khalid Mihdhar. Back in April 2023, The Grayzone exposed how Riyadh recruited then managed the two would-be hijackers on behalf of the CIA. As Max Blumenthal detailed in his 2019 book, The Management of Savagery , the CIA had at least sought to recruit Hazmi and Mihdhar. When a 21-page declaration by lead investigator for the Office of Military Commissions Don Canestraro finally appeared in unredacted form in 2023, the…Open
New data shows that September 11, 2001, remains a vivid memory for many, but it is growing more distant for younger generations as the number of Americans who did not experience the day continues to rise. New polling from Pew Research Center shows that 60% of 18- to 24-year-olds report learning about the attacks in class or through schoolwork. Mel Bissell is the social studies curriculum specialist for GBH Education, a multiplatform public media production organization that creates digital classroom resources for PBS and PBS LearningMedia. She helped create the new 9/11 resources and joins Way Too Early to discuss teaching the history of the attacks to the next generation.
