Tom
Cruise Sparks Outrage With 9/11 Rant 1/20/08
Tom Cruise has sparked outrage in the U.S. after accusing government
officials of lying to the public in the aftermath of the September 11
terrorist attacks.
In new video footage promoting Scientology, the actor blasts the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for endangering the health of
emergency service staff at ground zero.
He says, "The EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) came out and
said the air was clean. Of course as a Scientologist you go, 'That's a
lie.' You just go, 'Liar.'
"Finally you say, damn it, just go there and do it. Put it there,
let's go, here's the money, let's go. Let's just get one person treated. I
can't sleep another night."
The Mission Impossible star provided emergency service staff with
detoxification therapy based upon the works of Scientology found L. Ron
Hubbard following the attack in 2001.
But Dr Kerry Kelly, the senior medical officer for the New York Fire
Department, says, "It's hard to have faith in it (Scientology
rehabilitation therapy). You just stay there until you feel fine."
