LEFT WING LOONS Title: 9 Pieces of Documentation that Vindicate Trump’s Claim of 9/11 Muslim Celebrations There is nothing yet that validates Donald Trump’s claim that on that terrible September morning “thousands and thousands” of American Muslims cheered the collapse of the World Trade Center. At worst, though, the Republican frontrunner is guilty of exaggerating. The DC Media, however, has been exposed (once again) as bald-faced liars who engaged in a 14 year cover-up. Contemporaneous reports and eyewitnesses prove once and for all that some number of Muslims did in fact celebrate the collapse of the Twin Towers. Trump was not only right on this point, but by pressing the matter he has forced the DC Media to uncover a truth they did not want to tell. Let’s lay it out: 1.New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani As my colleague Joel Pollak pointed out, while interviewing Giuliani Tuesday morning, left-wing CNN anchor Alisyn Camerota was very unhappy when the mayor confirmed that there were indeed Muslim celebrations on 9/11. This wasn’t the way the interview was supposed to go: Camerota quizzed Giuliani, hoping he would say that Trump is “lying.” She was frustrated when Giuliani merely said that Trump had been “exaggerating,” and pointing out hitherto ignored examples of handfuls of Muslims celebrating in New York. “And those weren’t just rumors, those weren’t just reports, you went out and checked them out?” Camerota said–as if the former mayor whose credibility she had hoped to exploit to bash Trump were suddenly in doubt. (Giuliani confirmed the reports.) 2.CNN’s Chris Cuomo After Giuliani’s interview, an exasperated Cuomo admitted, “Were people celebrating on 9/11? Yes. Is it wrong? Yes. Should you say thousands were? No.” 3.MTV Trump claimed he had seen television reports covering Muslims celebrating on 9/11. Those contemporaneous reports have now been found. Dishonest left-wing outlets like MTV, National Journal and Mediaite are desperately spinning the revelation of these contemporaneous reports as proof Trump lied. In a burst of Orwellian memory-holing, MTV even brought back one of the witnesses so she could recant her story 14 year later. Nevertheless, all that spin cannot change the fact that news reports of American Muslims cheering the fall of the World Trade Center have been found. It doesn’t matter what the witness says now, what matters is what Trump might have seen at the time, and what Trump saw were news reports on television about people in New Jersey celebrating the fall of the World Trade Center. 4.The Washington Post In his lying fact check, Washington Post fact-checker Glenn Kessler writes, “There is absolutely no evidence of the celebration cited by Trump.” Except, of course, for all the proof listed here and a contemporaneous report in his own left-wing newspaper. A report, I should add, that Kessler did not include his initial fact check. Either this Hillary Guardian tried to cover up the Washington Post report, or he just didn’t look hard enough for evidence backing Trump’s claim. This appeared in the Washington Post on September 18, 2001: In Jersey City, within hours of two jetliners’ plowing into the World Trade Center, law enforcement authorities detained and questioned a number of people who were allegedly seen celebrating the attacks and holding tailgate-style parties on rooftops while they watched the devastation on the other side of the river. The report was never retracted by the Washington Post. 5.The New York Post This appeared in a New York Post editorial written by Fred Siegel on September 14, 2001: Here in New York, it was easy to get angry listening to Egyptians, Palestinians and the Arabs of nearby Paterson, N.J., celebrate as they received word of the murderous attack in New York and Washington. But Mayor Giuliani (who has been tireless and magnificent in this crisis) rightly warned New Yorker-ers that is would be wrong to take their anger our on the city’s Arab and Muslim residents. Attacks on Arab-Americans in Paterson or elsewhere are utterly indefensible. This story was never retracted. 6.Radio News Reports of Muslim Celebrations Jesse Singal at New York Magazine worked hard today to try and debunk my earlier story covering Fred Siegel’s New York Post editorial. In this so-called debunking, however, we learn that Siegel is a witness to September of 2001 radio news reports covering the Muslim celebrations. Obviously, this also buoys up Trump’s claim of news reports: Siegel told Daily Intelligencer that he first heard about the celebrations (and the nationalities of the perpetrators) on the radio, though he couldn’t remember which station. In addition to those news reports, he said, he believes that some Muslims did celebrate because he heard it from two sources: an acquaintance from Clifton, New Jersey, and an Arab-American professor with whom he corresponded. Not a small detail. 7.Legions of Witnesses You would have to be a sap to believe everyone using social media to claim they witnessed American Muslims celebrating on 9/11. But you’d have to be a liar to dismiss all of them, as the DC Media is doing. 8. Former NYPD Commissioner Bernard Kerik http://media.breitbart.com/media/2015/12/ap_ap-photo661-wi-640x427.jpg 9. CBS Anchor Dan Rather Click here and scroll to the 12:30 mark. Dan Rather, who was then anchoring the CBS Evening News, tells David Letterman of reports of witnesses who saw Muslims on rooftops celebrating. *** Between the contemporaneous reports above and these eyewitnesses that have come out in the wake of the DC Media attempting to bury Trump, there is now no question that some number of American Muslims celebrated 9/11. It happened. And for 14 years the DC Media covered this crucially important story up. And now, thanks to Donald Trump, we know the truth. Trump appears to have exaggerated. The DC Media, however, lied for 14 years and continues to lie today.

A bigger man would've admitted his error and moved on . Now he is taking on Curtis Sliwa ,the Founder of the 'Guardian Angels ' On Tuesday (Dec. 1) morning, Trump tweeted an 11-second video clip from 2001 in which radio host Curtis Sliwa mentions “people celebrating, cheering when they had actually heard the World Trade Center had [been] struck, and, more importantly, continuing to cheer when they heard that the World Trade Center — both towers — had been imploded.” Trump also included a request for apologies on behalf of those who’ve questioned him. Curtis Sliwa – doing tv commentary on 9/13/2001. Good job Curtis. Please send your apologies to @realDonaldTrump. pic.twitter.com/g07VZmNmAW — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 1, 2015 The problem? Sliwa isn’t describing something he personally witnessed. He’s talking about various people who called into his show to talk about what they allegedly saw. On Tuesday afternoon Sliwa told MTV News that on the day in question about six calls came into his radio show over the course of half an hour from listeners in their cars, describing what appeared to be celebrations in Paterson, N.J. “It was just a dozen teenagers,” Sliwa said. “Quickly the adults came out, they disciplined them, they took them back into their homes. There was no repetition, no continuation thereafter.” As such, Sliwa added, “Donald Trump couldn’t be more hopelessly wrong. And then what he did to the video from MTV by editing it did a tremendous disservice. To try to give him cover, the lie just became worse.” Sliwa also refuted Trump via Twitter earlier Tuesday, saying “callers said they saw 12 teens celebrating in Paterson” and that he has “been consistent all along in saying it was a small group.” No apology, @realDonaldTrump. Callers to @curtisandkuby on 9-11 said they saw 12 teens celebrating in Paterson.https://t.co/6h6VNIZZMG — Curtis and Kuby (@curtisandkuby) December 1, 2015 @realDonaldTrump As you can see here https://t.co/ilqZXkErsr I've been consistent all along in saying it was a small group in Paterson — Curtis Sliwa (@CurtisSliwa) December 1, 2015 “You’re gonna have to apologize to me,” Sliwa said in reference to Trump during his radio show on Tuesday. Not a good look when your own source contradicts you.As we previously wrote, rumors of celebrations in New Jersey on 9/11 are likely linked to accounts of a handful of kids making noise in the streets. Again, not “thousands and thousands” of people. Kids being loud. Many, many outlets — MTV included — have investigated Trump’s claim, and found absolutely no hard evidence to support it. None. At this point Trump’s childish demands for apologies are either disingenuous or delusional — neither of which is acceptable from someone angling to become President of the United States. http://www.mtv.com/news/2617114/donald-trump-still-wrong-on-new-jersey/ No doubt the Trump will soon make disparaging comments about Sliwa. Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
What a blowhard.
