They still don't.

No, my legs are not broken, but thanks for the kind welfare check.
I have zero interest in flying to Cali to spend days on real research for this. But in case you don't know, that's what real investigative work is. It's not sitting behind a keyboard profusely proclaiming the evil of a dead man. It sure as HELL is not parroting news articles either.

According to Austin Police Department Sgt. Joe Chacon, the death of Austin schoolteacher and peace activist Riad Hamad remains under investigation. Chacon says homicide investigators are "open to all possibilities" but that the initial investigation reflects that Hamad appears to have committed suicide. Hamad had been reported missing by his family on Monday night, April 14, and (partly by means of a cell-phone GPS search authorized by his wife) his car was found Tuesday afternoon in a parking lot off South Lakeshore Boulevard, on the south side of Lady Bird Lake. A land and water search turned up nothing more, but a little after 2pm on Wednesday, passersby on the hike-and-bike trail on the opposite (north) side of the lake, just east of the I-35 bridge, spotted a body floating near the shore. Hamad's eyes were covered in duct tape, his legs and his hands also bound – fueling Internet-amplified rumors that he had been murdered. According to a report that day by KXAN-TV news, "Park-goers who saw the body said the death did not look accidental. They said the man's face was wrapped with duct tape, and his arms appeared to be tied in front of his body."

I was part of the Iran-Contra affair, I didn't know it at the time. I was in the special activities division which is a real grey area for me. I think most of the people who are doing special activities for these illegal operations aren't aware that they're actually in special activities.

Willow posited in the Echols thread was enough of a mindfuck...now this.
I apologize. Yes, it was wrong to assume this man did this...but you have to understand, as much as I don't want to believe what seemed to be a good family man and intelligent writer did this horrendous deed...it's even vastly more frightening to think he DIDN'T do it. I remember long conversations with Sander and a number of truth researches about doing a really ballsy 9/11 documentary that'd go deep into Anwar Aluqui(as he was called), San Diego, Florida, Norman Oklahoma, Portland Maine, etc. This woulda been maybe 2007/2008. Then David Graham happened. Then all this other stuff. I had become consumed with the whole Saudi angle as well as a few other strands.
Five years later, I almost turned pale reading and listening to Phillip Marshall about a month ago. He was meticulously filling in all these redacted gaps in my mind, to a hair raising level regarding Arizona, San Diego, Vegas, Florida. This was stuff not even Hopsicker was able to get a grasp on. There was just something about his words and his interview that really got to me...and a short time later, this. Sometimes reality feels like the Matrix or a dream, reading this stuff.
Think about what a cursed pandora's box Zacharius Moussaoui's laptop at the University of Oklahoma turned out to be. Paul Wellstone's co-pilot, beheaded Nick Berg, Mohamed Atta, Melvin Lattimore and the WTC93/OKC 95/911 nexus. This is the Franklin coverup research of 9/11.
Of course my mind is saying this shit doesnt make sense. His publicist, fellow veteran pilots, friends, etc saying he was a good man. His renewed focus on a very real(imho) aspect of 9/11 truth that almost feels taboo in it's stark rawness. And he goes and kills his two teenage offspring in cold blood...then the dog. then himself? I mean fuck. When I said I dont believe for a nanosecond it was foul play it's partly because I DONT want to believe...that's scary shit. Like if one day you're confronted with say, aliens or God or whatever being real. It's a safe disconnect.
Just look at the way three of Jessica Lynch's comrades who spoke out got mysteriously gunned down in 2003. Or Caradori's plane. Or DC Madame. Or any of this. It's scary to entertain and stops being a food-for-thought armchair game.

Philip Marshall, a veteran airline captain started his flying career as a contract pilot at Lakefront Airport in New Orleans, Louisiana. In 1985 Marshall went on to a 20-year career as a commercial airline pilot, first with Eastern Airlines and later with United. During his career, Marshall served as captain on seven different types of Boeings, including the Boeing 757 and Boeing 767, both used in the attacks on September 11, 2001.
