About ‘My Post-9/11 Awakening’
Defenders of the status quo continue to paint the events of September 11, 2001, as an attack on the U.S. by so-called Islamic terrorists, but there are increasing signs that this false narrative is crumbling.
Of course, for those committed to exposing the deception of 9/11, the movement toward truth and justice can seem like it is advancing at a glacial pace. But Dr. Setty believes that things may be unfolding much more rapidly than we generally believe.
In this lecture, he will draw from his experience as an engineer, physician, and outspoken critic of the 9/11 and Covid-19 narratives as well as from his understanding of the metaphysics of our collective consciousness to offer a broader perspective on where we are, how we got here, and where we’re headed.
Are we — the advocates for peace, freedom, and individual sovereignty — prepared to hasten, in the most constructive and compassionate manner, what will be a necessary but painful awakening for society? To be able to answer that question in the affirmative, Dr. Setty contends we will have to face some of our own heretofore unchallenged beliefs and unite at a much deeper level.
Speaker Bios
Dr. Madhava Setty has been a board-certified anesthesiologist since 2003. Prior to receiving his medical education and training at Baylor College of Medicine and the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Setty was an engineer in the aerospace and defense industry, where he designed software interfaces between graphics engines and real-time combat training simulation and acoustic data acquisition systems under contracts with the Bundeswehr and the Office of Naval Research. Dr. Setty holds an undergraduate degree in electrical engineering from MIT. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he left his clinical practice to serve as the senior science editor for The Defender, the online publication of Children’s Health Defense. Dr. Setty is the author of WOKE: An Anesthesiologist’s View, a systematic examination of the bias in science, history, the media, and our own minds. He writes “An Insult to Intuition” on the Substack platform.
Dr. Niels Harrit served as associate professor of chemistry at the University of Copenhagen 1971 – 2009 and published more than 60 peer-reviewed papers. Since 2007 he has been actively involved in the global movement for 9/11 truth. He was the leading author of a scientific paper, published in April 2009, describing the findings of active thermitic material in the dust from the collapses of the three (!) skyscrapers of the World Trade Center. He was a member of the 9/11 Consensus Panel. Over the years, Dr. Harrit has given 400 presentations on the collapses of the World Trade Center skyscrapers in Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Germany, Holland, France, Switzerland, Spain, United Kingdom, Canada, USA, China, Australia, Russia and Iceland. Since 2020 this activity has been extended to cover the false narratives of the so-called Covid-19 pandemic from a scientific perspective.
Mary Holland, J.D., is CEO of Children’s Health Defense. She has been writing and advocating for better vaccine law and policy for many years, including while she served on the faculty at NYU School of Law from 2002-19. She is co-author of two books on vaccines, “Vaccine Epidemic” and “The HPV Vaccine on Trial,” as well as several law review articles.
Dr. Josh Mitteldorf was 34 years old with wonderful adventures under his belt but no career focus, when a wise statistician friend told him, "finish your PhD in physics. Then you can do whatever you want." He took the advice to heart. Mitteldorf is best known for two controversial but insightful books on the biology of aging. He was a statistician for election integrity activists in the era when voting systems were being computerized, and he was a founding member of Scientists for 9/11 Truth in 2010. He plays piano in chamber ensembles and French horn in a community orchestra. His two daughters were among the first to be adopted from China in the 1980s. His prescription for a long life can be read at AgingAdvice.org, and his Substack is UnauthorizedScience.org. He is a local board member for Children's Health Defense (PA), and his pieces are occasionally featured in The Defender. Some of his poetry can be found at PoemHunter.com, and this month he has launched a book and web site with classical sonnets for each of the 64 hexagrams of the I Ching, available at I-Ching.guru. He has taught a weekly yoga class for 47 years.
Frances Shure, L.P.C., is retired from being a psychological therapist specializing in early trauma.
