BATTLE FOR WORLD / SPUTNIK NEWS - January 15, 2019: The article highlights that a cybercrime group has released thousands of documents related to the 9/11 terrorist attacks in the United States. The group, which calls itself “The Dark Overlord”, stole the data from private insurance companies, law firms and government agencies and demanded a ransom.

Radio Sputnik discussed the publications with Dr Kevin Barrett, a political scientist and author.

Sputnik: Did any new information on the 9/11 terrorist attacks emerge from the cybercriminal group's release that you know of?

Dr Kevin Barrett: ...The problem here is that we already know so much about 9/11. We know beyond any reasonable doubt that there were no actual human hijackers involved in diverting planes that day. ...The fact that the US government was obliged under international law to provide the evidence against the people accused of committing this horrific crime and it never presented that evidence such as authenticated passenger lists, authenticated security videos — any proof whatsoever that any of these 19 alleged hijackers were even on the planes; not only was none of that ever presented, but we know for a fact that there were no hijackings, because not one of the four planes ever squawked the hijack code — which takes about two seconds to squawk. ...

We basically already have all the evidence we need if we can get into any actual courtroom and get people brought in and forced to testify under oath, but unfortunately the empire that dominates much of the world doesn't want that to happen.

Dr Kevin Barrett: ...These games being played between different factions of the deep state here in the United States, with the Trump administration alienating a lot of people in the permanent national security establishment here.

There is a factional fight within the deep state — most of them don't want to expose the full truth about 9/11 because that would be so destabilizing that it would frighten them.
