WHAT DID VAN JONES SAY ON 9/12/01?

On Saturday, Powerline reported that in addition to former Green Jobs Czar Van Jones being a Truther, he also seemed to believe that America deserved to be hit. They linked to a story published early in the morning of September 13th, 2001 about a rally held on September 12th, 2001 in Oakland.

That would be the same Oakland where Van Jones is from.

Interestingly, Jones was a SPEAKER at that event one day after the worst attack by a foreign enemy on American soil.
A recurring theme of the speakers was the brutal violence committed by or supported by the United States government on a daily basis. "The bombs the government drops in Iraq are the bombs that blew up in New York City," said Van Jones, director of the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, who also warned against forthcoming violence by the Bush Administration. "The US cannot bomb its way out of this one. Safety at home requires justice abroad."
To put this into perspective, we have a man who shares similar views to Jeremiah Wright when it comes to 9/11. That man was hired by the Obama administration while Jeremiah Wright was Obama's pastor for 20 years. Check out the last sentence of the first paragraph from a press release by the ELLA BAKER CENTER, a group Jones founded and directed. Also, take note of who signed the press release - a representative from another Van Jones group, STORM - Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement.

Check out the last sentence in the first paragraph of the far left website that reported on the rally.
Organizing against a growing climate of racism, nationalism and anti-Arab bigotry was a focus of the rally.
On September 11, 2001 the United States was attacked by 19 Islamists and 3000 people were killed. On September 12th, Van Jones was concerned about racism and anti-Arab bigotry.
