The massacre of 20 children and 7 adults at the Sandy Hook elementary school last Friday

was one more in a long line of atrocious mass murders committed in the USA. By now, four

days later, an official version of events has more or less solidified to explain the chain of

events. The familiar 'lone gunman' narrative has once more stoked the hot-button issue of gun

control and left the general population as clueless as ever as to why people suddenly 'go

postal' and target the most vulnerable members of society.

On closer inspection, however, there is clearly more to many of these mass shootings than

meets the eye. Very often the earliest reports present information that directly contradicts key

foundations of the final 'official' analysis of events. Granted, confusion is natural when a

story breaks, but some of the initial reports conflict so completely with the lone gunman

narrative that I'm going to compile them here and then try to put this tragedy in a more

objective context. In his speech at the Sandy Hook Interfaith Prayer Vigil in Newtown,

Connecticut on Sunday night, President Obama quoted the following biblical passage:

"So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is

temporary, but what is unseen is eternal."

~ 2 Corinthians 4:18The traumatised Newtown community deserves the facts without the spin. Everyone touched

by this brutal event deserves to know what really happened, so let's fix our eyes on what

remains unseen...

A 20-year-old 'tech geek' named Adam Lanza is supposed to have snapped early last Friday,

December 14th, shot dead his mother Nancy Lanza, loaded her car up with her guns and

ammo, then driven it across town to his former school, the Sandy Hook Elementary School,

shot dead 27 people in two classrooms and an adjoining hallway, then turned one of his guns

on himself.

That's how most will now remember the shooting, but is that actually what happened?

firearms, taught her sons how to shoot and was "stockpiling" because she was "worried about

economic collapse."

Daily Mail, UK

December 16, 2012

Last night it also emerged Nancy was a member of the Doomsday Preppers movement, whichbelieves people should prepare for end of the world.

Her former sister-in-law Marsha said she had turned her home 'into a fortress'. She added:

'Nancy had a survivalist philosophy which is why she was stockpiling guns. She had them for

defense.

'She was stockpiling food. She grew up on a farm in New Hampshire. She was skilled with

guns. We talked about preppers and preparing for the economy collapsing.'

It's not difficult to see that their efforts to insinuate that Nancy Lanza was somehow

responsible for this massacre by being an irresponsible mother also serve to rile the large

contingent of gun owners in the country, particularly the far right who see a conspiracy on thegovernment's part to "take back our guns." More on that later, but for now I just want to note

that all of the Lanza family members seemed to live more or less normal middle-class lives.

Yes, the parents were divorced but it wasapparently amicableand both put their own needs

second to those of their children (and anyway, divorce in the US these days is decidedly

'normal middle class').

Despite "family insiders" claiming that he was a "deeply disturbed kid", Adam Lanza, like so

many other alleged 'lone(r) gunmen' before him, does not fit the profile of a mass-murdering

maniac. His 24-year-old brother, Ryan Lanza, said he hadn't seen his brothersince 2010. This

fact brings into question Ryan's claim that his younger brother may have had his identity card

on his person at the school shooting. Although perhaps the question that needs to be asked

here is, why would a person bother to carry identification with them after going to the trouble

of dressing up in a bullet-proof vest, mask and black camouflage gear and going on a killing

spree ...

The live emergency services audio feed from the scene reveals some interesting observations

from first responders that have been completely overlooked by the mainstream media. Note

that theunedited versionlasts over two hours, so theabridged versionI'm going to quote

from has a compressed sequence of events that are not in real time. In this abridged version,

we hear at 1.38' a report that gunfire is still being heard, even though the shooting was

supposed to have ended by the time police arrived. The next report at 2.35' says that theshooting has stopped and the school is "in lockdown". At 3.23', the police relay a teacher's

report that she saw "two shadows running past the gym" [not "two shooters", as we

previously reportedon SOTT.net]. This is followed by another officer on the scene who says,

"Yeh, we got 'em, they're coming at me! ... [inaudible] ... Coming up the driveway real

slowly!" That same officer at 5.40' says he has them "proned out", which presumably

means he has apprehended them and they are laid out on the ground, before another officer

comes on to say, "be aware that we do have a second [inaudible] ..."

Later on, at 19.10', an officer who sounds out of breath, like he's just given chase, reports

what I think sounds like "these guys" followed certainly by "multiple weapons, including

long rifles and shotgun". If these were found so early on, why were they not included in theinitial press reports which stated that three firearms had been found - the above mentioned

Glock, Sig Sauer and Bushmaster AR-15 rifle? Further conflicting, and possibly planted

evidence was thrown into the mix by 'law enforcement officials' when they publishedvideo

footageof a long weapon being retrieved from the trunk of a car. Look closely and you'll see

that it's a shotgun, not a rifle. In addition, this 'discovery' was made late in the day (it's dark

outside), while the Bushmaster rifle was first reported found in the trunk of a car much earlier

in the day.

Besides the above two suspects "proned out" in front of the school, another suspected

gunman was apprehended after he gave chase, this time in the woods next to the school:

The police are clearly chasing someone whom they appear to apprehend in the middle of the

woods next to the school, a fact confirmed by several eyewitnesses:

This fleeing suspect, wearing camouflage gear, abulletproof vest and armed with four guns,

has since disappeared from media coverage. Who was this person and how did he know what"it" was when he protested that "I didn't do it"?

Perhaps most astonishingly, this suspect arrested in the woods was named in an Associated

Press report as 24-year-old Ryan Lanza. The original report has long since vanished of

course, but you can see it referencedhere. This was despite the fact that Ryan had already

been named as the deceased suspect inside the school, lying next to two handguns.

Ryan Lanza was actually at work in Hoboken, New Jersey, that morning when his name and

photo began circulating in the media. And so, for most of Friday, the 'lone shooter' was

erroneously reported as "Ryan Lanza, confirmed dead." At the same time, we were being told

that Ryan's girlfriend and a room-mate were reported missing, also from Hoboken, NewJersey.

So this isn't just a case of mistaken identity, as later claimed when it was suggested that

Adam had a piece of identification belonging to his brother on his person. Not one, but

BOTH Lanza brothers were being placed by 'law enforcement officials'at the scene of the

shooting. It could be that Ryan's quick reflexes to leave his workplace to get on a bus to go

back to his apartment while protesting innocence via his Facebook page may have saved his

life.

Now remember, all of this confusion somehow resulted from a single guy going into a school

and shooting children and teachers and then shooting himself, all within three minutes. Surely

it should have been fairly easy to rapidly and concretely identify the details of such a crime

and the scene.

What it's starting to look like is that the Lanzas were framed for this mass shooting in

advance. Long before any suspects were named, and even as we were being told that Nancy

Lanza was among the dead at the school, we were told that police were investigating a

murder in ... Hoboken, New Jersey, where a body had been found at the home of ... Ryan

Lanza! An older "confirmed" version of events had RYAN, not Adam, travelling to Hoboken

that morning to murder hisfatherbefore going to the school in Newtown, Connecticut. Other

variants had Ryan OR Adam going toboth their divorced parents' homesand killing thembefore going to the school.

The narrative has now settled on the younger brother killing his mother in Newtown then

going to the school. So what about the rest of it? Do we just put it down to 'keen' journalism

that was having a field day last Friday as media outlets sought to bring us the latest 'breaking

news'? Confusion and 'Chinese whispers' undoubtedly play a part in the early stages of

national media events, but I think back to those news anchors reading scripts about OsamaBin Laden within minutes of the first plane being hit on 9/11 and I think, 'Wait a minute!' All

these misleading reports had to have been issued by someone or some people "confirming" to

Associated Press and other media outlets that the Ryans's father had been murdered [he

wasn't even aware that the shooting at the school had taken place until journalists turned up

on his doorstep], or that Ryan's girlfriend had gone missing from Hoboken, or that either

Ryan or Adam were pulled out of the adjacent woods in handcuffs yelling "I DIDN'T DO IT"

to assembled parents. These aren't just 'little details' that can be confused for other details,

these are detailed narratives. So how, or why, would any member of the press come up with

such details? They strike me as a set of alternative scenarios that might have found their way

into the official narrative had facts on the ground turned out differently.

Watch this snippet of State Police Lt. Paul Vance at the press conference he gave the day

after the shootings. His answer is as bizarre as it is revealing. When asked whether Nancy

Lanza had any connection with the school, he replied defensively about something that is

both unrelated and arguably the most significant fact that completely undermines the official

narrative: the arrest of a second gunman in the woods:

Most of the initial mainstream media reports have since been rewritten to fit 'new' facts

proclaimed by 'law enforcement officials'. Here's an example fromBusiness Insider. The

following excerpts are the opening paragraphs from the 'same' article, oneearlier original

version, followed by thelater revised version:The massacre [...] was reportedly perpetrated with a .233 caliber rifle, a Glock pistol and a

Sig Sauer pistol.

The Bushmaster rifle was found in the trunk of the shooter's car. The Sig Sauer and

Glock pistols were the only weapons used in the shooting, according to CBS. Now the

question is what kind of magazine would allow a shooter to fire "100" rounds in such a short

period.

Indeed, I was wondering the same thing. How could two pistols do so much damage? The

report was updated as follows:

The massacre in Connecticut that's taken the lives of at least 26 people was reportedly

perpetrated with a .223 caliber rifle, a Glock pistol and a Sig Sauer pistol,according to NBC:

The shooter was using one Sig Sauer and one Glock pistol,according to CNN. Later details

emerged that the primary weapon was the Bushmaster "assault-style" rifle.

Altogether, though, it doesn't matter what type of weapon the shooter used. The bottom

line is that it was likely a magazine fed, semi-automatic, with enough rounds to shoot "100

shots" in a matter of minutes,as quoted in USA Today.

What actually happened may not matter to some, but surely a journalist's role is to at least try

to find out?

rifle was used on the victims", a statement that is supported by Dr. H. Wayne Carver II,

Connecticut state's chief medical examiner. Of the seven autopsies he personally performed

on Sandy Hook victims, all of them had "three to 11 wounds apiece". He also said that the

'gunman' used a military-style rifle rigged to quickly reload, and that the 'shooter' was able

to reload so quickly because he had "taped two magazines together." Even before the State

Chief Medical Examiner had given these statements, it had been stated that spent shellcasings from .233-caliber (rifle) bullets werefound inside the school.

So all the victims' wounds were the result of rifle-fire, specifically from "the rifle", the one

we were told in early reports was found in the trunk of a car in the parking lot! This is simply

not credible.

New York Daily News

The three guns Adam Lanza is supposed to have brought to the school with him. The rifle

was left in the trunk, leaving him just the two handguns to let off "hundreds of rounds"...

firing .233 caliber bullets that belonged to the rifle... which was left in the car

Remember that only "the rifle" was used on all the victims. Ifonly this rifle was used, and if

we try to make this claim fit into the (admittedly fluid) official version of events, then thealleged lone gunman would have had to leave the school, place the rifle back in his trunk,

then return inside the school and shoot himself. No one reported any such maneuver on the

part of any gunman or gunmen. What we do have, however, is live emergency services radio

feed in which we hear that two men have been apprehended and are "proned out" AND live

video footage supported by eyewitness testimony showing what appears to be a THIRD man

being arrested by police in the woods.

We can see how the authorities' hands are tied because they need to fit all the facts into the

usual 'lone gunman' narrative. For that, there can only be ONE rifle and a couple of

handguns. The problem is that they have already claimed to find that solitary Bushmaster

rifle in the trunk of a car in the school parking lot, so the earliest police reports of a cache of

long arms being found inside the school will no longer fit with the lone gunman narrative,

especially as they're now saying that he had already opened fire as he burst into the school.

Could "scrawny" 20-year-old Adam Lanza have stormed the school, solo Rambo-style, while

carrying "multiple long arms, including rifles and shotguns"? Only one person was wounded.

Everyone else who was shot was killed. How could Adam Lanza achieve such deadly

accuracy, in such a short length of recorded time?

Similarly heavily armed men wearing black combat gear from head to toe... their job is to kill

'terrorists' to keep us safe, which they do by terrorising us all

Initial reports put the beginning of the shooting in the school administrators' office, where

someone, reportedly the school principal, had a row with the gunman(men). We know this

because someone supposedly turned on the school intercom system, alerting the teachingstaff to the loud swearing and commotion in the principal's office and probably saving many

more children from being gunned down as teachers took measures to hide the children in

closets.

One brave teacher, Kaitlin Roig, bundled a bunch of children into a bathroom and locked the

door. What's interesting about her testimony to ABC News is that when police arrived and

asked her to open the door,she refused, saying that "if they were really cops, they'd know

where to find keys to open the door." In addition, she requested that they slide their badges

under the door.

Now, this is generally a smart thing to do in any and all interactions with the police,especially in the U.S. But to have the wherewithal to do so under such traumatic

circumstances strongly suggests that Ms. Roig had logically deduced by that point that

multiple perpetrators were involved, and that they were either impersonating police officers

or were indistinguishable from SWAT team police commandos, either in the way they

dressed or the way they behaved upon entering the building. It also reminds us just how

narrow the time window of the actual shooting was. The shooting appears to have barely

ended when men knocked on that bathroom door and told Ms. Roig they were police.

There are also conflicting reports about how the gunmen entered the building. We were told

initially that they came in through the main front entrance and proceeded straight to the

administrators'/principal's offices. But Sandy Hook elementary school has a security system

with a video monitor, which allows staff to screen visitors before buzzing them in. A

"masked gunman dressed in black tactical combat gear" from head to toe would kinda raise

red flags, don't you think?

Anotherpossible anomalyis that Victoria Soto, one of the teachers killed at the school,

appears to have had an 'in memoriam' Facebook page created in her name four days before

the shooting.

Regarding this alleged'LIBOR scandal' connectionbetween this shooting and theAurora

theater shooting, there is as yet zero evidence to support the claim that either father of LanzaorHolmes were going to testify to anyone about anything, so for now this must remain just

another rumor. I rather think that this is being spread to create the impression of a direct link

that can be easily refuted, as in a straw man argument. The obvious and direct link staring

everyone in the face is that the U.S. government's accounts of these events are hocus-pocus.

The glaring connection between these two shootings, the Sikh Temple shooting and theFort

Hood shootingis that multiple gunmen were reported at the time by eyewitnesses, but they

are now all officially claimed to have been carried out by 'lone gunmen'. This logically tellsus that the real perpetrators are being protected with cover stories of what really happened

because if the truth were known, some section of the U.S. government would be implicated.

Wade Michael Page, the 'lone gunman' in the Sikh Temple shooting in Wisconsin in August

this year, was a highly decoratedU.S. army psychological operations specialist, according to

the Pentagon. But what happened to thethree other gunmenseen by witnesses? It can't surely

be coincidence that Wade was (former?) military psy-ops. The thought has crossed my mind

more than once during the aftermath of the Connecticut shooting. Others too have suggested

this was a 'false-flag' event, or that Lanza was some sort of Manchurian Candidate.

But maybe there's a simpler explanation (albeit more outrageous) than that? Was that reallyAdam Lanza they found inside the school? Do we even know for a fact that one of the

gunmen was found dead inside the school? What we have instead are reports of two or three

masked gunmen, apparently all dressed similarly in black tactical gear from head to toe,

being wilfully forgotten about at best, or protected by the state at worst. Based on the

authorities' persistent but futile efforts to connect the Lanzas to this school, the multiple

eyewitness reports of two shooters, the Connecticut State Medical Examiner's report that all

the victims were riddled with bullets from a rifle that we're simultaneously being asked to

believe was in the trunk of a car the whole time, similar reports of multiple shooters in

previous mass shootings in recent years and the media focusing the emotional outcry onto the

hot-button topic of gun control ... I'm left wondering if this was actually the work of some

highly trained professional hit team?

Was the massacre at Sandy Hook elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut, a psy-op,

using what amounts to a 'death squad' and a carefully planned mission to terrorise people on

behalf of the government, in combination with perception management to shape the narrative

and vector the emotional fallout?

Gun control isn't the issue here. The US government would long since have taken measures,

quietly, to limit the supply of weapons, the 2nd Amendment of the constitution be damned

(it's "just a goddamned piece of paper", remember?), if it was really concerned with limiting

civilian access to weapons.

The psychopaths in power have absolutely no compunction about using state terrorism, in this

case organising the deliberate massacre of innocent children, to control people. In effect, this

is little different from what the U.S. government calls counter-insurgency or counter-

terrorism in foreign countries, where it attacks innocent civilians to create the impression that

they were killed by 'communists', 'terrorists', 'insurgents' or 'militants', with the aim of

generating public support for the illusion that the common people need a strong, ruthless

government to protect them from the 'evil-doers'. When the common people buy into this

manipulation, the end result, as history shows repeatedly, is an overt and brutal police state.
