Introduction
With polls consistently showing that
approximately 50% of Canadians and Americans
doubt the official story of 9/11, the feat of
keeping the lid on a public debate for over 12
years has been nothing short of miraculous.
This article presents a simple case study showing
that this miracle is being performed with the
assistance of Google and YouTube search engine interference
On September 8, 2013, the popular Russia Today
“Truthseeker” program, with over a million
subscribers on YouTube,[1] published a 13-minute
newscast entitled “The Truthseeker: 9/11 and Operation Gladio (E23).”
Below the video frame ran the caption:
Bigger than Watergate’: US ‘regular’ meetings
with Al-Qaeda’s leader; documented White House
‘false flag terrorism’ moving people ‘like
sheep’; the father of Twin Towers victim tell us
why he backs this month’s 9/11 campaign on Times
Square and around the world; & the protests calendar for September.
This paragraph was followed by a list of
interviewees, including four people representing
three scholarly research
organizations: Architects and Engineers for 9/11
Truth,[2] the 9/11 Consensus Panel,[3] and The Journal of 9/11 Studies.[4]
The “Truthseeker” video immediately started to
gain popularity on YouTube, reaching 131,000
views in the first three days.[5](The history of
the viewing statistics may be seen by clicking on
the little graphic symbol under the video frame, and to the right)
Truthseeker posted its program to YouTube on
Sept. 8. Russia Today tweeted the YouTube link
to its 546,000 followers and to the interviewer, Daniel Bushell, that day:
RT ?@RT_com 8 Sep
The Truthseeker: 9/11 and operation Gladio (E23)
http://youtu.be/vka7Da6e9LY @DanielBushellRT
A MOXNEWS copy of the same newscast was also
posted September 8 under the title “Russia Today
News Declares 9/11 An Inside Job False Flag
Attack!” which in turn started to escalate, with
over 80,000 views in the first few days.[6]
Other uploads of the program also appeared, with
less traffic, bringing the early viewing total to
over a quarter of a million people.
What Happened Next?
In both the RT and MOXNEWS cases, the viewer
statistics on YouTube suddenly flat-lined on the
morning of September 11 — like a heart monitor when a patient dies.
The YouTube search engine had suddenly failed to locate these videos.
Oddly, although the RT video may still be viewed
on YouTube through its direct link (if known)
from the Google URL box,[7] it cannot be accessed
on YouTube by its title, or by portions of its
title, or by searching “Truthseeker.”
The MOXNET version was also decoupled from the
YouTube search engine for a period of time after
September 11, but has since been restored to normal indexing.
Below is RT’s “Truthseeker” “9/11 and Operation
Gladio” reposted on GlobalResearchTV:
How Were the Search Engine Failures Detected and Verified?
Investigations carried out independently by a US
engineering colleague and myself revealed the following:
I. YouTube Search Results and Rankings:
· Searching the exact title of the
original “Truthseeker” posting (“9/11 and
Operation Gladio”) does not yield the original RT
post. It does yield other posts with far fewer
viewings, but the original, which as we have seen
still exists as a URL, is evidently no longer in the YouTube index.
http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=9%2F11+and+Operation+Gladio&oq=9%2F11+and+Operation+Gladio&gs_l=youtube.3..0l2.293984.293984.0.295154.1.1.0.0.0.0.217.217.2-1.1.0…0.0…1ac.2.11.youtube.MvZma9CXCtY
Its viewings have slowly risen over several weeks
from 131,000 to 136,000 through the early news
reports — but with by far the most views of all
the uploads, it should appear at the top of the list.
Searching YouTube for the URL of the original
escalating RT version produces no result either,
although as we have seen, the URL is still a
functioning direct link. (Experiment: Take any
URL from YouTube or Google, plug it into the
search box and watch it come up on top of the
list — because there is only one.)
Searching YouTube for the program’s name,
“Truthseeker,” displays titles from Episodes
1-22, and also Episode 24, but it fails to show
Episode 23, “9/11 and Operation Gladio” in 15 pages of search results.
Searching for the MOXNET post on the third day of
its existence (September 11) produced a similar
result. It should have appeared second from the
top with its 80,000 views, but it was difficult
to get it to appear at all — except through its
direct link (if one had saved this earlier).
Oddly enough, the MOXNET post is once again
normally accessible on YouTube (as it was
September 8-11) through a search of either: a)
its full title, or b) its first few words.
II. Google Search Results and Rankings:
An exploration of the Google Web and Google Video
search results revealed the following about
access to the RT “Truthseeker” Episode 23:
· Google Web Rankings: On a search of
“9/11 and Operation Gladio,” Google Web first
brought up several news items, followed by an
array of low-volume YouTube uploads that did not
include the popular original RT version.
https://www.google.com/search?q=9%2F11+and+Operation+Gladio&bav=on.2,or.r_cp.r_qf.&cad=b&bvm=pv.xjs.s.en_US.qH4g2czDPNQ.O&ech=1&psi=51dPUsRPhbrgA6-cgcgK.1380931557920.3&emsg=NCSR&noj=1&ei=51dPUsRPhbrgA6-cgcgK
· Google Video Rankings: On the same
search, “9/11 and Operation Gladio,” Google Video
first listed the “Truthseeker” website page from
which the video may also be watched and
downloaded (as discussed below). This was
followed by a half dozen uploads from other
sources, mostly showing 50-200 video views. The
original RT video that is still available by
direct link and now records 136,000 views, did
not show up at all — yet it should have been on top.
https://www.google.com/search?q=9/11+and+Operation+Gladio&noj=1&source=lnms&tbm=vid&sa=X&ei=6FdPUvfUD6z-4APhrIHQCA&ved=0CA0Q_AUoAA&biw=1680&bih=870&dpr=1
· On both Google Web and Google Video,
searching the original RT URL failed to bring up
the early version of the program that had started
to go viral[8] — although its direct link still
exists and shows up on several early September news websites.
III. The Truthseeker’s Own Website:
The “Truthseeker” produces a new show every two
weeks. As of this writing, the “Truthseeker”
home page shows Episode 24, dated September 22,
right at the top, followed by Episodes 22, 21, 20, and 19.
Our case-study Episode 23, dated September 8, was
displayed at the top of the home page from
September 8-11, before it disappeared.
It was then located under a different date —
August 1, 2012 — buried on a back page with
earlier episodes from over a year ago.
This may have been a simple mistake on the part
of a large investigative news network that is
attracting personnel and audiences away from
Western networks, or it may be the result of
hacking or political pressure. [It should be
noted that when a September 8 2013 posting is
given a new date namely August 1, 2012, it no
longer appears on Google News in the days leading
up to and following September 11, 2013, the date
of commemoration of the 9/11 attacks. This
redating of the September 8 posting also affects
its ranking in the search engines, GR Ed.].
The bottom line is that at least with regard to
the Google and YouTube (which is owned by Google)
search engines, something highly unusual has gone awry.[9]
Failure of Email Transmissions Describing the Above Investigation
Perhaps the most disturbing element of this case
study is that for more than two weeks after
September 11, 2013, it was impossible for some
people to transmit by email the link to the
original YouTube Episode 23 that had started to go viral.[10]
An email containing this link would at first
appear to have transmitted normally, for it would
show up in the sender’s Sent Mail. But it would
not be received by the addressees — including the sender, if copied to self.
To my knowledge, at least six people, including
three IT professionals, experienced the failure
of email transmissions containing this particular link.
Of these IT professionals, one concluded, “There
is no benign explanation for this.”
Impact and Significance:
1. Impact: How popular videos behave statistically
When videos start to become popular on YouTube,
the statistics curve usually continues to rise over time.
Some show an initial burst of interest, with the
curve rising quite steeply, then settling into an
upward sloping line over time. This may be seen
with the 2011 “Ultimate Dog Tease” (145 million).[11]
Others have a slower start, then catch on and
build steadily, as did the 2012 “Psy-Gangnam
Style” video, the first to be viewed over a billion times.[12]
The same slow-start pattern was seen with the
2007 video, “9/11 Clues EVERYONE MISSED.”[13]
Now compare these graphs with the two flat-line
interruptions in the case-study videos whose
progress was truncated by search engine failure.[14]
The point is that if a particular video is
catching on, and people can see the excitement
and enthusiasm for it right there in the viewer
stats, they are apt to jump aboard and watch
it. They are far less likely to watch a video
with 50-200 views that has been rated “ho hum” by the viewing public.
Those who covertly study the impact of
“inconvenient” political broadcasts, and who take
note and interfere with them, understand these things.
2. The significance of this interference:
The suppression of free political communication
in our society has grave consequences for several reasons:
It is clear that that there is not just spying
and data collection going on. There is also
electronic interference in our media, search
engines, and mailboxes that is suppressing
freedom of expression at various levels;
Media and search engine suppression can be held
up for public view, while evidence of individual
email tampering, probably carried out by covert
state agencies, is frightening. People are
naturally reluctant to report it or write about
it — for there is no one to report it to;
In the case of 9/11, which has torn the fabric of
humanity down the middle — between Muslims and
Christians, and between East and West — it is
essential that the evidence backing this event be
absolutely correct and open to question at all times;
The fact that the lid on 9/11 has been nailed
down so firmly for so long creates great
suspicion that this case study points to possible
obstruction of free information transfer by
government agencies recently identified through
NSA whistleblowers Edward Snowden, William Binnie, Thomas Drake, and others.
This essay is offered to all citizens who believe
the government should be investigated when state
crimes against democracy are suspected.
It is further offered to all who pay taxes for
government care, protection, and the guarantee of
constitutional freedoms — and in particular to
citizens who may have encountered chilling
indications of covert state interference in their lives.

Introduction
With polls consistently showing that
approximately 50% of Canadians and Americans
doubt the official story of 9/11, the feat of
keeping the lid on a public debate for over 12
years has been nothing short of miraculous.
This article presents a simple case study showing
that this miracle is being performed with the
assistance of Google and YouTube search engine interference
On September 8, 2013, the popular Russia Today
“Truthseeker” program, with over a million
subscribers on YouTube,[1] published a 13-minute
newscast entitled “The Truthseeker: 9/11 and Operation Gladio (E23).”
Below the video frame ran the caption:
Bigger than Watergate’: US ‘regular’ meetings
with Al-Qaeda’s leader; documented White House
‘false flag terrorism’ moving people ‘like
sheep’; the father of Twin Towers victim tell us
why he backs this month’s 9/11 campaign on Times
Square and around the world; & the protests calendar for September.
This paragraph was followed by a list of
interviewees, including four people representing
three scholarly research
organizations: Architects and Engineers for 9/11
Truth,[2] the 9/11 Consensus Panel,[3] and The Journal of 9/11 Studies.[4]
The “Truthseeker” video immediately started to
gain popularity on YouTube, reaching 131,000
views in the first three days.[5](The history of
the viewing statistics may be seen by clicking on
the little graphic symbol under the video frame, and to the right)
Truthseeker posted its program to YouTube on
Sept. 8. Russia Today tweeted the YouTube link
to its 546,000 followers and to the interviewer, Daniel Bushell, that day:
RT ?@RT_com 8 Sep
The Truthseeker: 9/11 and operation Gladio (E23)
http://youtu.be/vka7Da6e9LY @DanielBushellRT
A MOXNEWS copy of the same newscast was also
posted September 8 under the title “Russia Today
News Declares 9/11 An Inside Job False Flag
Attack!” which in turn started to escalate, with
over 80,000 views in the first few days.[6]
Other uploads of the program also appeared, with
less traffic, bringing the early viewing total to
over a quarter of a million people.
What Happened Next?
In both the RT and MOXNEWS cases, the viewer
statistics on YouTube suddenly flat-lined on the
morning of September 11 — like a heart monitor when a patient dies.
The YouTube search engine had suddenly failed to locate these videos.
Oddly, although the RT video may still be viewed
on YouTube through its direct link (if known)
from the Google URL box,[7] it cannot be accessed
on YouTube by its title, or by portions of its
title, or by searching “Truthseeker.”
The MOXNET version was also decoupled from the
YouTube search engine for a period of time after
September 11, but has since been restored to normal indexing.
Below is RT’s “Truthseeker” “9/11 and Operation
Gladio” reposted on GlobalResearchTV:
How Were the Search Engine Failures Detected and Verified?
Investigations carried out independently by a US
engineering colleague and myself revealed the following:
I. YouTube Search Results and Rankings:
· Searching the exact title of the
original “Truthseeker” posting (“9/11 and
Operation Gladio”) does not yield the original RT
post. It does yield other posts with far fewer
viewings, but the original, which as we have seen
still exists as a URL, is evidently no longer in the YouTube index.
http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=9%2F11+and+Operation+Gladio&oq=9%2F11+and+Operation+Gladio&gs_l=youtube.3..0l2.293984.293984.0.295154.1.1.0.0.0.0.217.217.2-1.1.0…0.0…1ac.2.11.youtube.MvZma9CXCtY
Its viewings have slowly risen over several weeks
from 131,000 to 136,000 through the early news
reports — but with by far the most views of all
the uploads, it should appear at the top of the list.
Searching YouTube for the URL of the original
escalating RT version produces no result either,
although as we have seen, the URL is still a
functioning direct link. (Experiment: Take any
URL from YouTube or Google, plug it into the
search box and watch it come up on top of the
list — because there is only one.)
Searching YouTube for the program’s name,
“Truthseeker,” displays titles from Episodes
1-22, and also Episode 24, but it fails to show
Episode 23, “9/11 and Operation Gladio” in 15 pages of search results.
Searching for the MOXNET post on the third day of
its existence (September 11) produced a similar
result. It should have appeared second from the
top with its 80,000 views, but it was difficult
to get it to appear at all — except through its
direct link (if one had saved this earlier).
Oddly enough, the MOXNET post is once again
normally accessible on YouTube (as it was
September 8-11) through a search of either: a)
its full title, or b) its first few words.
II. Google Search Results and Rankings:
An exploration of the Google Web and Google Video
search results revealed the following about
access to the RT “Truthseeker” Episode 23:
· Google Web Rankings: On a search of
“9/11 and Operation Gladio,” Google Web first
brought up several news items, followed by an
array of low-volume YouTube uploads that did not
include the popular original RT version.
https://www.google.com/search?q=9%2F11+and+Operation+Gladio&bav=on.2,or.r_cp.r_qf.&cad=b&bvm=pv.xjs.s.en_US.qH4g2czDPNQ.O&ech=1&psi=51dPUsRPhbrgA6-cgcgK.1380931557920.3&emsg=NCSR&noj=1&ei=51dPUsRPhbrgA6-cgcgK
· Google Video Rankings: On the same
search, “9/11 and Operation Gladio,” Google Video
first listed the “Truthseeker” website page from
which the video may also be watched and
downloaded (as discussed below). This was
followed by a half dozen uploads from other
sources, mostly showing 50-200 video views. The
original RT video that is still available by
direct link and now records 136,000 views, did
not show up at all — yet it should have been on top.
https://www.google.com/search?q=9/11+and+Operation+Gladio&noj=1&source=lnms&tbm=vid&sa=X&ei=6FdPUvfUD6z-4APhrIHQCA&ved=0CA0Q_AUoAA&biw=1680&bih=870&dpr=1
· On both Google Web and Google Video,
searching the original RT URL failed to bring up
the early version of the program that had started
to go viral[8] — although its direct link still
exists and shows up on several early September news websites.
III. The Truthseeker’s Own Website:
The “Truthseeker” produces a new show every two
weeks. As of this writing, the “Truthseeker”
home page shows Episode 24, dated September 22,
right at the top, followed by Episodes 22, 21, 20, and 19.
Our case-study Episode 23, dated September 8, was
displayed at the top of the home page from
September 8-11, before it disappeared.
It was then located under a different date —
August 1, 2012 — buried on a back page with
earlier episodes from over a year ago.
This may have been a simple mistake on the part
of a large investigative news network that is
attracting personnel and audiences away from
Western networks, or it may be the result of
hacking or political pressure. [It should be
noted that when a September 8 2013 posting is
given a new date namely August 1, 2012, it no
longer appears on Google News in the days leading
up to and following September 11, 2013, the date
of commemoration of the 9/11 attacks. This
redating of the September 8 posting also affects
its ranking in the search engines, GR Ed.].
The bottom line is that at least with regard to
the Google and YouTube (which is owned by Google)
search engines, something highly unusual has gone awry.[9]
Failure of Email Transmissions Describing the Above Investigation
Perhaps the most disturbing element of this case
study is that for more than two weeks after
September 11, 2013, it was impossible for some
people to transmit by email the link to the
original YouTube Episode 23 that had started to go viral.[10]
An email containing this link would at first
appear to have transmitted normally, for it would
show up in the sender’s Sent Mail. But it would
not be received by the addressees — including the sender, if copied to self.
To my knowledge, at least six people, including
three IT professionals, experienced the failure
of email transmissions containing this particular link.
Of these IT professionals, one concluded, “There
is no benign explanation for this.”

Now compare these graphs with the two flat-line

The point is that if a particular video is
