Wake Up! with Robbie Gawel 🎙️

Behind the Smoke: Rethinking 9/11

Next year marks the 25th anniversary of 9/11—the day that forever changed America and the world. Nearly a quarter of a century later, we've heard the same story repeated again and again: 19 hijackers armed with box cutters hijacked four commercial airliners.

Nearly 3,000 lives lost. America is under attack. But how much do we really know about what happened? And just as important—how much were we never told?

In this episode of Wake Up!, host Robbie Gawel reviews the official story, uncovering strange coincidences, unanswered questions, and shocking details that are often overlooked.

We cover: 🏢 The Towers & Asbestos The Port Authority faced billions in asbestos liability due to a lawsuit it lost just months before 9/11, which directly impacted the fate of the buildings.

💰 Larry Silverstein's Lease & Insurance Policy— A 99-year lease signed weeks before the attacks, followed by one of the largest insurance payouts in history.

🎭 Gelatin: The Art Collective—A mysterious Austrian art group with covert access inside the Twin Towers in 2000. Was it just art… or something far more sinister?

💥 The Pentagon Strike—Was it really a Boeing 757? We look at the size of the impact hole, the missing wreckage, and the suspicious lack of clear security footage.

💸 The Missing $2.3 Trillion—Announced by Donald Rumsfeld on September 10, 2001—the very day before the Pentagon's accounting offices were destroyed.

🌍 The Aftermath—The War on Terror, the Patriot Act, $8 trillion spent, millions displaced, thousands of U.S. troops killed, and a new era of surveillance and government overreach.

From WTC 7's mysterious collapse to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, this episode goes beyond the headlines and asks: was 9/11 simply a terror attack, or was it a psyop—a psychological operation designed to manipulate public opinion, justify endless war, and centralize power?

⚡The truth still matters. Whether you agree or disagree, it's time to revisit the story we were told and look deeper.
