It’s the lie that launched, not a thousand ships, but countless conveyances of war; the explanation of the attacks of September eleventh, 2001 has been used to, among other things, “justify” Canada’s current entanglement in the Afghanistan fiasco. Beyond the roughly three thousand killed on that fateful day, many hundreds of thousands of other lives have been effected. But what really happened on 9/11? Hal Sisson is a Victoria-based novelist, former reporter and lawyer, and world-ranked croquet player. The latest of his nine novels is Modus Operandi: 9/11 a no-less fictional account of that day than has been so far produced as fact by the powers that believe the official narrative. Hal Sisson and the ways and means behind “the day that changed everything.”
This week on GR: Victoria author and 9/11 Truther, Hal Sisson digging up the facts on the crime of the century; Aida Mashari and Canada Out of Afghanistan tagging along with the Victoria Day parade; Janine Bandcroft brings us up to speed with all that’s good to do in the coming week.

Gorilla Radio for Monday, May 19, 2008
Happy Victoria Day Victoria! Yes, today is that one day set aside each year to honour our fair city’s namesake, the late Queen Victoria, Empress of India, Protector of the Faith, etc.
As befitting an imperial fete, the hoi polloi lined the streets of the city to pay homage to convoys of Chamber of Commerce-approved floats, while being berated by representatives of the newer empire, phalanxes of American high school marching bands, their blaring, brassy marshal tunes a reminder of just why I hate a parade. Just why these American kids come up here yearly to pay homage to a dead monarch, the epitome of all their young republic fought to overthrow, however remains a bit of a mystery, like so much about our cousins south.
Those paragons of truth, justice, and the American way have it seems, in these last years, lost their way. Nearly seven years after the fateful 9/11 attacks, the charade first floated by the Bush administration to explain the infamy of that day persists, few yet daring to question the absurdity of the Emperor’s squirrely tale.
Hal Sisson is a Victoria-based author and member of the city’s 9/11 Truth Movement. He’s a former newspaper reporter, lawyer, and author of numerous books, including: ‘The Big Bamboozle,’ ‘Caverns of the Cross,’ and ‘Modus Operandi 9/11,’ a fictional accounting of some of the strange facts on the ground surrounding the crime of the century ignored by investigators and the media.
Hal Sisson’s latest book is, ‘Potshots,’ an examination of that other great charade, the so-called ‘War on Drugs.’ Hal Sisson in the first half.
This week we leave the usual format for Gorilla Radio’s eagerly anticipated 2009 Year-Ender Show. Yes, the year that is almost was, and what a year it almost was too!
So, today music, personal bloviations, and a visit from Victoria Street Newz publisher and CFUV Radio broadcaster, Janine Bandcroft looking back at a year chronicling Victoria’s streets.
