R.I.P., William Hurt
Thank You for Speaking the Truth about 9/11
We at Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth were deeply saddened to learn of the passing of William Hurt earlier today.
In addition to his extraordinary body of work as an actor, William was a producer of AE911Truth’s most recent documentary film, The Unspeakable, and a passionate supporter of 9/11 Truth.
Last November, in what may have been his final public expression, William penned a hauntingly moving article about his coming to terms with what he always “knew to be true” about 9/11. We encourage everyone to read it and share it widely so that the world will know what he stood for.
Many eulogies will be written about William in the coming days, and virtually all of them will omit the fact that one of the things he cared most about in the latter years of his life was exposing what really happened on September 11, 2001, and bringing justice to the families of those who perished that day.
William was an inspiration to all who worked with him here. We will truly miss him and be forever grateful to him for speaking the truth about 9/11.
