Only if you also believe that FDR knew about Pearl Harbor.
The thing about conspiracy theories is that they often sound plausibe AFTER the fact when we know which specific pieces of information are relevant. At the time events occur in history, it's virtually impossible to gauge what will actually happen.
Who would have thought the assassination of an Austrian Duke would have led to WWI. It's only with the benefit of hindsight that we can link all of the simmering issues which made the assassination the fuse on that powder keg.
Contemporaneous actors would have a very difficult time in calculating the possible outcomes and unintended consequences. The original bombing of the World Trade Center garage didn't lead to anything near as momentus as a full scale war.

There are two separate issues.
1. If you were to develop a "plan" to accomplish those goals, what would it include. It would have to have several of the same high-level types of targets. For example, look at the Protocols of the Elders of Zion hoax. One of the reasons it seemed to plausible was that it included specific plans which logically would have to be part of a master world domination plan. The fact that Jewish people controlled banks, media, and other key sectors seemed to corroborate it. But, you can always retrofit. Think of the constellations in the sky - you can see the shapes because you're looking for them.
2. Conspiracies of the size you're talking about would encompass hundreds of people, if not thousands. How are people keeping it so secret for so long? Also, as I noted previously, it's impossible to predit how the dominoes will fall in real life. The US could have just as easily gone the full isolationist route in public sentiment. You only see the events as inevitable after the fact. At the time things happened, nothing was all that clear.
Which is not to say that there haven't been huge conspiracies in the past from MK-Ultra to the Tuskegee study. Certainly, without the Snowden wikileaks, we wouldn't know half of what the NSA has been doing in the name of liberty and freedom.

If anyone is looking for a real, proven, conspiracy, you should look at the Muslim Brotherhood's "The Project".
A document was found in 2001 by Swiss law enforcement during a raid on the house of Youssef Nada, a Muslim Brotherhood member. It was dated 1982 and included main strategy points for the Muslim Brotherhood. Among those -
Networking and coordinating actions between likeminded Islamist organizations; Avoiding open alliances with known terrorist organizations and individuals to maintain the appearance of “moderation”; Using deception to mask the intended goals of Islamist actions, as long as it doesn’t conflict with shari’a law; Avoiding social conflicts with Westerners locally, nationally or globally, that might damage the long-term ability to expand the Islamist powerbase in the West or provoke a lash back against Muslims; Establishing financial networks to fund the work of conversion of the West, including the support of full-time administrators and workers; Putting into place a watchdog system for monitoring Western media to warn Muslims of “international plots fomented against them”; Cultivating an Islamist intellectual community, including the establishment of think-tanks and advocacy groups, and publishing “academic” studies, to legitimize Islamist positions and to chronicle the history of Islamist movements; Developing a comprehensive 100-year plan to advance Islamist ideology throughout the world; Building extensive social networks of schools, hospitals and charitable organizations dedicated to Islamist ideals so that contact with the movement for Muslims in the West is constant; Involving ideologically committed Muslims in democratically-elected institutions on all levels in the West, including government, NGOs, private organizations and labor unions; Instrumentally using existing Western institutions until they can be converted and put into service of Islam; Drafting Islamic constitutions, laws and policies for eventual implementation; Avoiding conflict within the Islamist movements on all levels, including the development of processes for conflict resolution; Instituting alliances with Western “progressive” organizations that share similar goals; Creating autonomous “security forces” to protect Muslims in the West; Inflaming violence and keeping Muslims living in the West “in a jihad frame of mind”; Supporting jihad movements across the Muslim world through preaching, propaganda, personnel, funding, and technical and operational support; Making the Plstinian cause a global wedge issue for Muslims; Adopting the total liberation of Plstine from Israel and the creation of an Islamic state as a keystone in the plan for global Islamic domination; Instigating a constant campaign to incite hatred by Muslims against J ews and rejecting any discussions of conciliation or coexistence with them; Actively creating jihad terror cells within Plstine; Linking the terrorist activities in Plstine with the global terror movement; Collecting sufficient funds to indefinitely perpetuate and support jihad around the world"
The Muslim Brotherhood were responsible for Al-Qaeda which gave birth to ISIS. Their main political activity around the world has been to take over governments once they can get rid of a secular dictator, if necessary. Two countries where this didn't work are Tunisia and Egypt, which you can work out for yourself why they are targeted the way they are.
Links and info are out there, proceed if you dare, since the picture gets uglier once you check your local country. Hysterical documentary at link, but the Project is a real document reflecting a real and very successful organization and ideology.

The Muslim Brotherhood was established in 1928 by Hasan al-Banna, who admired Hitler and wrote to him expressing his desire to collaborate with the Nazi Party. During World War II the MB members in the Middle East formed two Muslim Waffen-SS Handschar Divisions to fight for the Nazis. Due to the large number of Muslim volunteers, the Handschar Divisions were the largest of Hitler's 38 Waffen-SS divisions.
ISIS was formed out of Al-Qaeda. Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi used to be a member of the Muslim Brotherhood.

I'm not saying this is true but it wouldn't surprise me if the Twin Towers were built just for that purpose.
Yes, too I ask why no one looked into WTH happened with Building 7 and who both towers imploded rather than exploded.
Nothing about 9/11 matches the official story.
I think even Reagan might not have had it in him to do this but W and especially Cheney, they'd have done much worse if that's what it took. They would have gotten rid of half of NY (more uptown though or exploded the tunnels and bridges if this alone had not given them the power and money they longed for in their greedy, evil minds.

And the number of drills going on in the air- which provided a good distraction for the air traffic controllers-- who weren't in on the scheme. And the FBI wasn't allowed into Manhattan(probably weren't in on it either). This looks like a CIA and air force operation. Please read the official reports and see if it makes any sense.

Let's explore the impossibilities/improbabilities one at a time... How about the hijackers' passports that somehow miraculously survived the fires caused by the planes (hot enough to melt steel!) and the incinerating crush when the buildings collapsed.
by Anonymous | reply 80 | July 4, 2015 4:40 AM |
How about the fact that with the North Tower, the undamaged 90 stories (plus six underground floors sunk into bedrock) made of steel beams four feet thick, heavily cross-braced and encased in concrete, provided a mere two seconds' worth of resistance more to the fall of the top twenty floors above them than it would take for those same top twenty floors to fall through thin air. There was nearly five times as much undamaged building below the fire as there was above the fire. How could such a relatively small amount of mass plow through, and completely destroy, a much larger amount of mass in only two seconds more than it would take the smaller mass to drop through nothing?
When an object in motion hits a stationary object, the object in motion transfers a portion of its momentum to the stationary object, slowing down the moving object. The floors below are visibly being exploded away before the top mass falls on them. That alone could account for the mere eleven seconds it took the roof to hit the pavement level, rather than the nine it would have taken the roof to fall through thin air.

People forget that there never would have been any federal investigation into the events of 9/11 at all only the victims' families lobbied Congress for eighteen months effectively shaming them into impaneling an investigatory commission. Even then, Dick Cheney and others lobbied Congress behind the scenes to prevent it from happening.
There is no innocent reason for that. Any commercial plane crash with massive loss of life is immediately investigated by the Federal government. The Bush administration and the Congress did not drag their heels in the first place, then low-ball the Commission's budget and impose an abrupt deadline on the investigation just to protect Muslim terrorists. The Commission's "Final Report" on 9/11 doesn't even examine the destruction of WTC 7, which is the Achilles Heel of the official story. Do you really wonder why?

Can you imagine that this was the best explanation they could offer? As if he couldn't just stand and say "I'm so sorry kiddies, but duty calls. Being President means being pulled in all directions at the same time, and there's always something that needs my attention."
Bush was in shock, and didn't know what to do. President Obama would have just excused himself to deal with the matter. Likewise, if Bush was really concerned with the kiddies, he wouldn't have sent their parents off to war so unprepared and with no exit strategy. And of course, Bush didn't seem too concerned with the kiddies of Afganistan and Iraq. Worst president ever.

R98, not to mention that there were over 100 adults in the room and only about 15 kids. Like that many adults couldn't console a few "frightened" children who just saw the President get whisked away?
Speaking of which, isn't it peculiar that although the President's location at the school was announced well in advance, and although terrorists were plowing hijacked planes into high-profile targets, the President's own Secret Service detail had no fear that he (and they) could have been the next target on another plane. They let him stay in a publicized public place, as if they knew he was in no danger despite the obvious fact that the USA was under attack. That is beyond fishy.

Bush was probably afraid it would FUBAR, and that's why he was in Florida where his bro had a martial law order ready to go if need be. He flew to Omaha first (where Warren Buffet was holding a "charity" function at Strategic Air Command including attendees such as the head of the SEC, Fidelity Trust, NetJets, Flight Safety International, etc.) Only after it was clear Congress and the army and navy were going along with everything did he return to DC.

And why did it take NIST years to invent a "new phenomenon of thermal expansion" to try to explain it away? And why is it that NIST's own computer-generated illustrations of that "new phenomenon" don't look a thing like the real collapse? If it's all so simple, why all the heel-dragging and dubious theories and failed computer models from the so-called experts?

The plane crash in Pennsylvania had often been described as not looking like a plane crash at all - hardly any belongings or personal effects around the crash site. There were plenty of those when the KLF plane went down.
The towers were made to withstand a hit by a plane. None of it makes any sense - the quick implosion on top of itself, WTC 7, the plane crash in Pennsylvania, the airphone calls, etc. Just too much unanswered and unexplained phenomena.

Yes, jet plane wings are essentially hollow and filled with jet fuel. Yet when the second plane struck the second tower, it seemed to plow a Wile E. Coyote style plane-shaped hole in the outside wall of the tower.
Meanwhile, in DC, we are supposed to believe that when a similar jet plane struck the concrete wall of the Pentagon (after incredibly flying just just five or six feet off the ground at over 300 mph for several thousand yards), it supposedly snapped shut like a lady's fan and disappeared, wings, tail, engines, and all into a hole merely sixteen feet in diameter, leaving only trace evidence of aircraft parts on the un-scorched lawn outside the point of impact.
The Pentagon was more likely hit by a Tomahawk missile while a dummy military plane did a fly-by and sudden ascent, leaving witnesses who swore they saw a plane (they did) while the real damage was done by the missile, including the tell-tale circular hole of sixteen feet in diameter. Months later, Rumsfeld slipped up and bluntly stated at a live press conference that a missile hit the Pentagon. His team had to scramble to clarify that he meant to say the "plane-as-missile." But who calls a jet plane a missile? Wouldn't the Sec. of Defense instinctively know the difference?
by Anonymous | reply 125 | July 17, 2015 10:44 PM |
In fact, the plane at the Pentagon that witnesses swore they saw could likely have been the plane that fired the missile that actually hit the building. "Another" plane was seen flying off nearby after the fireball erupted outside the Pentagon. The planes in NYC were a magician's trick to cover up the controlled demolitions of the towers. The plane in DC may have been camouflage for a missile. A real jet plane hitting the concrete wall of the Pentagon should have left at least significant portions its tail and wings and on lawn outside the building. A CNN reporter live on the scene at the Pentagon said in the the immediate aftermath that outside the building there was virtually no sign at all of an airplane. All that was ever found outside were a few pieces of shattered metal. At least one identifiably large engine part removed from the scene looked far more like a part from a missile than from a jet plane. There was also a large piece of fuselage carted off in broad daylight by several men that was concealed under a blue tarp. Its not being a plane part was probably the reason they kept it hidden under the tarp.

I'm glad people are raising these questions. I was skeptical until i did some research. I wonder if the downed plane might have been intended for WTC7. It just boggles me that people could watch it collapse and not think it was demolished. The network pundits even said so when it happened.
Most troubling to me is that firefighters waited for the jet fuel to burn itself out and then started sending more men up the towers. They know the risks of building collapse. They would not have sent up anyone if there was the remotest chance that those structures would fall. They were radioing down that the fires were under control when the towers came down. It does not add up. Ask any firefighter and he or she will tell you. Thousands of them have protested the official story and set up a website. I can't find a single one who is standing behind the official story. most are silent, and I've heard that was an order, so I can't blame them.

Since 9/11 there was one in China, one in Dubai, another in Spain, all the buildings survive. Why don't ours?

I have no links to YT conspiracy videos or bizarre Alex Jones type websites to post, but I will say this: I work for the largest airline in the world, which was not involved in any of the tragic events of 9/11, and I am married to a 777 captain who is in his 27th year of flying commercially after a Naval career which included being a member of The Blue Angels. His knowledge of aeronautics and physics is vast, and I would imagine it exceeds that of anyone posting within this thread(unless we have any college professors in this group.) Neither he, nor any of his fellow captains or any ALPA members he associates with have any doubts whatsoever concerning the events of 9/11. He has been privvy to the CVR tapes as well. The idea that the Egyptians et al could not have flown those aircraft given the hours of instruction they had is absurd. Shit, I could fly a 76 or a 75 once it is at cruising altitude, and I have only trained on single engine equipment. Those airplanes are nearly idiot proof once aloft, and remember, there WERE a few boneheaded mistakes made concerning the PA system and the radio to ATC.
I get it. When something so horrible happens, we WANT to think that there is an answer and a reason.. Or our small minds find it difficult to believe the simplicity of evil intent.

Defenders of the official story need to explain what generated enough heat to create the pyroclastic flow of pulverized concrete dust and debris that rolled through the streets of lower Manhattan. The debris flow was so intensely hot it carried solid material over the water and deposited it on land across the harbor.
Pyroclastic flow is associated with volcanic eruptions and atomic bombs. It's what buried Pompeii and Herculaeum in ash. It takes a vast amount of super high heat to generate a pyroclastic flow. Burning jet fuel can't begin do it. It burns at far too low a heat to create a volcanic effect of any kind. Carbon-based office materials, ignited by jet fuel will burn at an even lower temperature. Something at the WTC created enough heat to replicate a volcano or an atomic bomb.

How many of the 'hijackers' knew how to fly commercial jetliners? [Hint: NOBOBY could become proficient at flying a 757 or a 767 *solely* by training on a flight simulator].
I was about 200 miles away from NYC on the morning of 9-11-01, and from the moment that I first learned of the attacks -- before the first tower 'fell' -- I felt that the whole thing was a SCRIPTED event!

The JFK assassination was the big game changer in US history. It was a coup d'etat. The fact that they were able to portray Lee Harvey Oswald as the lone wolf, make him the patsy, to contort all logic to prove their single bullet theory, and for the public to believe it without starting a revolt, means those responsible can basically do anything. If RFK was elected president, he would have not only ended the Vietnam War but would have investigated his brother's death in order to prove the real truth to the nation, so he had to be silenced. Ronald Reagan assassination attempt was to put George H W Bush in as the president. It failed. The Bush v. Gore was another coup d'etat. That enable the gears to shirt for the events on 9/11/11, in order to begin an endless war against terrorism, passing the USA Patriot Act that will infringe on our privacy and civil rights in the guise of protection against enemies of the state. It will be difficult if not impossible to know all the nitty gritty of how and why things happened on that day, mainly because all the real evidence was destroyed. The Bushes are behind each of these incidents. Mind you they are part of a machine, not the actual leaders.

The House -- our elected representatives -- did an investigation on the JFK murder and decided there was a conspiracy, that Oswald did not act alone. Most Americans seem to be unaware of this fact.

Too funny! You exposed your ignorance far more than you think. The "plane" disappeared into a hole 16 feet in diameter leaving nothing but a few shards of shredded metal outside on the lawn. Later, the area of the wall above the hole crumbled, leaving a gap that went all the way up to the roof line. That you don't know these rudimentary facts pretty much discredits your opinion on the subject.
Research the claim by officials of the complicated aerial maneuvers that flight school dropout Hanni Hanjour is supposed to have done to fly the plane into the Pentagon and you will see how far-fetched it is that he or any completely incompetent pilot could have succeeded. The one flight instructor who is known to have taught Hanjour briefly later said of him, "he could not fly at all."

And the committee concluded there was a PROBABLE conspiracy based on faulty acoustics information and that their PROBABLE conspiracy consisted of a total of two people. Take out the faulty acoustics and you are back to one person, no conspiracy.

This was aired only once on CNN, it is a houror so after the plane allegely hit. The smaller hole that was made by the plane or missile is nor much bigger as the roofline collpased, creating a bigger gap in the building. What is telling about this video is that the reporter states clearly that there is no sign of a plane having hit the building to be seen on the outside of the building.
The official story is that the whole plane just sort folded up and entered the original hole that was created at the point of impact. That is absurd as the wings and tail and engines all would have to pull themselves inward like a collapsible fan. What should have happened is that parts and pieces of the wings, tail and engine parts should have been scattered all over the lawn and roof. The outside walls of the Pentagon should have shown damage from where wings, tail, and most especially the titanium engines should have struck. Titanium is stronger than concrete, therefore the engines should have left conspicuous damage on the building where they allegedly hit it. But there isn't any. A jet plane is much wider than the original hole created, and it is wider too than the gap you see on this video, which was caused by the area around the original hole crumbling in a short while later.

Your claim that the plane crashed on the lawn outside the Pentagon and that the damage was caused by flying parts bouncing into the Pentagon is the first of its kind I have ever read anywhere in fourteen years.
I don't know where you got it but I assure you it is not to be found even in the Final Report of the 9/11 Commission.

"Why wasn't the hole as wide as a 757's 124-ft.-10-in. wingspan? A crashing jet doesn't punch a cartoon-like outline of itself into a reinforced concrete building, says ASCE team member Mete Sozen, a professor of structural engineering at Purdue University. In this case, ONE WING HIT THE GROUND; the other was sheared off by the force of the impact with the Pentagon's load-bearing columns, explains Sozen, who specializes in the behavior of concrete buildings. What was left of the plane flowed into the structure in a state closer to a liquid than a solid mass. "If you expected the entire wing to cut into the building," Sozen tells PM, "it didn't happen.""

In response to an initial claim that Flight 77 had crashed short if its target, here is what the eye-witness CNN reporter on the scene had to say:
"You know, it might have appeared that way but from my close inspection, there's no evidence of a plane crashing anywhere near the Pentagon. The only sight is the actual side of the building that has crashed in, and as I said, the only pieces left that you can see are... are small enough that you could pick up with your hand. There are no large tail sections, wing sections, uh, fuselage - nothing like that anywhere around which would indicate that the entire plane crashed into the side of the Pentagon.. uh, and then caused the side to collapse. Now even though if you look at the pictures of the Pentagon you see that the floors have all collapsed, that didn't happen immediately, it wasn't until almost about forty-five minutes later that the structure was weakened ...."

R235-
In his autobiography, Dreams From My Fathers, Barack Obama writes of taking a job at some point after graduating from Columbia University in 1983. He describes his employer as "a consulting house to multinational corporations" in New York City, and his functions as a "research assistant" and "financial writer".
Oddly, Obama doesn't mention the name of his employer. However, a New York Times story of October 30, 2007 identifies the company as Business International Corporation. Equally odd is that the Times did not remind its readers that the newspaper itself had disclosed in 1977 that Business International had provided cover for four CIA employees in various countries between 1955 and 1960.10
The British journal, Lobster — which, despite its incongruous name, is a venerable international publication on intelligence matters — has reported that Business International was active in the 1980s promoting the candidacy of Washington-favored candidates in Australia and Fiji.11
In 1987, the CIA overthrew the Fiji government after but one month in office because of its policy of maintaining the island as a nuclear-free zone, meaning that American nuclear-powered or nuclear-weapons-carrying ships could not make port calls.12
After the Fiji coup, the candidate supported by Business International, who was much more amenable to Washington's nuclear desires, was reinstated to power — R.S.K. Mara was Prime Minister or President of Fiji from 1970 to 2000, except for the one-month break in 1987.
In his book, not only doesn't Obama mention his employer's name; he fails to say exactly when he worked there, or why he left the job. There may well be no significance to these omissions, but inasmuch as Business International has a long association with the world of intelligence, covert actions, and attempts to penetrate the radical left — including Students for a Democratic Society (SDS)13 — it's reasonable to wonder if the inscrutable Mr. Obama is concealing something about his own association with this world.

Investigative journalist Wayne Madsen has discovered CIA files that document the agency's connections to institutions and individuals figuring prominently in the lives of Barack Obama and his mother, father, grandmother, and stepfather. The first part of his report highlights the connections between Barack Obama, Sr. and the CIA-sponsored operations in Kenya to counter rising Soviet and Chinese influence among student circles and, beyond, to create conditions obstructing the emergence of independent African leaders.
----
own work in 1983 for Business International Corporation, a CIA front that conducted seminars with the world's most powerful leaders and used journalists as agents abroad, dovetails with CIA espionage activities conducted by his mother, Stanley Ann Dunham in 1960s post-coup Indonesia on behalf of a number of CIA front operations, including the East-West Center at the University of Hawaii, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), and the Ford Foundation. Dunham met and married Lolo Soetoro, Obama's stepfather, at the East-West Center in 1965. Soetoro was recalled to Indonesia in 1965 to serve as a senior army officer and assist General Suharto and the CIA in the bloody overthrow of President Sukarno.
Barack Obama, Sr., who met Dunham in 1959 in a Russian language class at the University of Hawaii, had been part of what was described as an airlift of 280 East African students to the United States to attend various colleges – merely u201Caidedu201D by a grant from the Joseph P. Kennedy Foundation, according to a September 12, 1960, Reuters report from London. The airlift was a CIA operation to train and indoctrinate future agents of influence in Africa, which was becoming a battleground between the United States and the Soviet Union and China for influence among newly-independent and soon-to-be independent countries on the continent.
The airlift was condemned by the deputy leader of the opposition Kenyan African Democratic Union (KADU) as favoring certain tribes – the majority Kikuyus and minority Luos – over other tribes to favor the Kenyan African National Union (KANU), whose leader was Tom Mboya, the Kenyan nationalist and labor leader who selected Obama, Sr. for a scholarship at the University of Hawaii. Obama, Sr., who was already married with an infant son and pregnant wife in Kenya, married Dunham on Maui on February 2, 1961 and was also the university's first African student. Dunham was three month's pregnant with Barack Obama, Jr. at the time of her marriage to Obama, Sr.

[quote]And the committee concluded there was a PROBABLE conspiracy based on faulty acoustics information and that their PROBABLE conspiracy consisted of a total of two people. Take out the faulty acoustics and you are back to one person, no conspiracy.
Only problem, r186, is that the last sentence is entirely yours. The House Committee still concluded the assassination was probably the result of a conspiracy even after questions were raised about acoustic evidence (which IIRC was raised by the FBI who had their own agenda in this case).
Again, the 'one person, no conspiracy' is your opinion, deftly used to try to turn the House committee's conclusions inside out or discredit them.
Maybe we'll know more in a few years when more documents are released. (Which begs the question: why is evidence hidden for decades to begin with? Why can't we know all there is to know now?)

Clinton and "The Company".
---
In part one of this article, we examined a CIA-supervised cocaine smuggling operation based during the '80s in Mena, Arkansas.
We also detailed evidence of then-Governor Clinton's role in supressing evidnce, mishandling federal funds, even blocking a congressional level investigation into the affair. While Clinton's at-least tacit role in the Mena cover-up continues to this day (he has yet to authorize any investigation into the charges), behind the scenes are highly secretive, quasi-independent elements within the US intelligence community who are handling the actual machinery. In a high level deal between the National Security Council and the Medellin cartel, millions of dollars were paid to Felix Rodriguez, the CIA's commander at El Salvador's Ilopango Air Base, and others (including Manuel Noriega) in exchange for access to the CIA pipeline for Medellin cocaine. In this conclusion, we examine the secret network which laundered the Mena drug money. We also find that these same covert bankers, with close ties to BCCI, financed Clinton's 1992 presidential campaign. [It should be noted that since the publication of part one, this writer has learned that Buddy Young was appointed by Pres. Clinton to head the Dallas Regional Office of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Young was Governor Clinton's chief of security, and the man who framed Terry Reed for trying to quit the Mena operation. FEMA, of course, is the agency empowered to sieze control of the country in the event of martial law.

If they had revealed biological weapons testing as it happened in the 1950s then people would care.
If it comes out 30-50 years later, like the truth about Korea and Vietnam, then nobody cares- they just think it is normal and okay for the government to do these things.

"The Company" covers a lot of ground so saying that someone has CIA ties doesn't mean the same thing in every case. Obama's ties could only be connected to Africa in terms of promoting American interests ahead of those of the Chinese and Russians where Africa is concerned. It's far cry from assassinating foreign leaders or overthrowing a government. Not that those things couldn't be involved but in his case it's not likely. It does mean that as far as being a candidate and being vetted the CIA would have all the information on him they need to determine whether he will be suitable to hold the Presidency as far as THEIR agendas go.

Here is an interesting video. The Today Show one hour before the attacks. They had Tom Brokaw announcing that tonight on the news they would be doing a special about "three numbers that could save your life: 9-1-1." EIther a weird coincidence or maybe, just maybe - and yes, I know this sounds tinhat - they are using the broadcast to send coded messages to those in the know - like "the game is on." Tom Brokaw is a member of the CFR, and they are the Globalist, New World Order, One World Government people. I bet Brokaw knew at least a little more than he let on in advance.

President Bush was our Chauncey Gardiner in BEING THERE come to life. He was planted down in Florida where martial law had already been declared the Friday before (presumably just in case things went wrong.) Cheney and H. W. Bush ran the White House on 9/11. W. was not allowed to fly back to DC. He had to fly around, circling the air over Florida uselessly for hours before being allowed to fly to Nebraska to a meeting of billionaires.
Before noon during the network coverage, people with FBI credentials detailed a threat to Camp David (including initially reporting that Flight 93 had gone down there.) I am guessing that these were a false alarm of sorts to prevent President Bush from returning to DC and - Heaven forbid! - taking charge of operations. He was no doubt kept as far out of the loop as possible.
I get the feeling we had a real Ted Baxter, empty-headed hairdo of a man sitting in the White House for eight years while competent people pulled his strings from just out of sight. Bush was a coke-addled alcoholic and you could tell he fell off the wagon at times. His handlers fed him answers through ear-pieces at interviews and debates. You could hear the pause he had to take to listen carefully before repeating the things people were telling him to say. He was as phony as his War on Terror.

To see the fundamental flaw in the explanation that fire and structural damage done by falling debris from the North Tower caused WTC 7 to collapse, imagine the building is a four-legged wooden stool. Each of the four legs represents one corner of the building and the seat is its roof. The stool is forty-seven inches high, one inch for every floor in the building. The four legs are connected by four horizontal rods seven inches up off the floor, and also connected by another four horizontal rods twelve inches off the floor. These rods represent the seventh floor and the twelfth floor.
Now let's replicate the damage done to the one corner of the building that bore the brunt of the falling debris. Chunk away and chip away at that stool leg. Don't hold back. The more damage you do, the better you will help make the point. We now have a four-cornered building/stool with one badly damaged corner/leg.
Now light fires to the rods that represent the seventh and twelfth floors. Start the rods on fire at the damaged leg of the stool but let the fires burn as far and as hard as you want. We weren't inside the building and we don't know exactly how far the fires traveled but we don't need to know. One broad face of the building and one narrow face of the building showed unmistakable signs of fire shooting out banks of windows on the seventh and twelfth floors. The other broad face and narrow face of the building showed no signs of fire shooting out any windows. So we don't need to know exactly how far the fires traveled. Photos and videos tell us that the fire was unevenly spread through the building. That's all we need to know, and the evidence supports it.
So the four-legged stool has one leg chunked to a state of fragility and fires burning fiercely but distributed unevenly on the connecting rods.
Now sit on the stool. You are gravity. You represent the loss of the stool's structural integrity. It can no longer hold itself up, so it must come down. If you sat on a stool in such a condition, how would it (and you) topple? Note, I am not suggesting that a giant sat on WTC 7, only that you are an invisible giant whose sitting down is the force known as gravity. The official explanation is that this was a gravitational-based collapse.
From where I sit, gravity will make the building/stool topple in the direction of the badly damaged leg. That is where failure ought to occur first and foremost. The other three corners are intact. The building will topple conspicuously to one side, the side of most damage. It will take what is known as the Path of Least Resistance.
But if you sit among the defenders of the official story, you believe that the stool will telescope straight down into its own path. You believe that the three undamaged legs will fail at precisely the same second and to precisely the same degree as the badly damaged leg. You ride the seat/roof of your stool straight down and neither the damaged corner nor the random path of the fires causes any major deviation in your rapid vertical descent. The descent is so rapid, that if your ass were the roof of the building, then when you sat on the asymmetrically-damaged stool, your ass would hit the floor just as fast as if you sat down on nothing but thin air forty-seven inches off the floor. That is how fast your wooden stool with its three undamaged corner/legs would destroy itself in its remarkably expedient descent through the Path of Most Resistance.
Now go ahead and tell me that a stool is a bad illustration for a steel and concrete skyscraper. So it is. Every beam and column you add, every floor, every block of concrete you add to my metaphorical stool to make it more like a skyscraper and less like a stool strengthens the argument that I made about the stool in the first place. Something more powerful and more well-controlled than unevenly distributed damage and fire combined with gravity brought that building down into its own footprint at virtual free-fall speed.

But I'll be honest - I didn't believe them either. It's only with YouTube are we able to see the video for ourselves without media editing it or locking it away.
There can be some whacky elements to the truther movement - but at the end of the day, no fire has ever collapsed a steel building and make it pancake on itself. Fires have burned for 18 or more hours in other steel buildings time and time again - no collapse.
Lastly - the 9/11 towers were BUILT TO WITHSTAND A JUMBO JET FLYING INTO THEM. That's right - look up interviews with the building's engineers.

I agree, but the lack of transparency by the government (similar to that of a crime witness who withholds evidence and doesn't tell the whole truth about what happened at the crime scene) means that using conspiracy to explain the obvious inconsistencies exerts a powerful pull on "truthers", and makes the "witness" seem guilty of some connection to the crime.

R276, there are all sorts of conflicting versions of how some of the jets allegedly used also made emergency landings in Cleveland. I personally think that all the planes that actually struck their targets were decoy military planes painted to look like passenger planes. While the real passenger planes were culled and evacuated, with the passengers all being herded into one plane that took off, allegedly for CA, but ended up being over-ridden and flown via remote control to be dumped in the ocean. It's also possible that some of those passengers never really existed but were invented for fraudulent insurance claims and government payoffs.
Here is the transcript of a news story out of Cleveland, broadcast the morning of 9/11:
Reported by 9News Staff Web produced by:Liz Foreman 9/11/01 11:43:57 AM
A Boeing 767 out of Boston made an emergency landing Tuesday at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport due to concerns that it may have a bomb aboard, said Mayor Michael R. White.
White said the plane had been moved to a secure area of the airport, and was evacuated.
United identified the plane as Flight 93. The airline did not say how many people were aboard the flight.
United said it was also "deeply concerned" about another flight, Flight 175, a Boeing 767, which was bound from Boston to Los Angeles.
On behalf of the airline CEO James Goodwin said: "The thoughts of everyone at United are with the passengers and crew of these flights. Our prayers are also with everyone on the ground who may have been involved.
"United is working with all the relevant authorities, including the FBI, to obtain further information on these flights," he said.
Hard to explain away this story but there it is. Some people believe that at least two of the actual passenger jets were re-commissioned and are still in service today. Once you start delving, you realize that even now there are still hundreds of unanswered questions. Here is a website that goes on at length about the Cleveland Airport Mystery. It's too big a topic to be neatly encapsulated in one post.

I agree - just speculation. Reject it out of hand, by all means.
But what you cannot reject out of hand is that Channel 9 in Cleveland quoted the city's Mayor reporting that a plane made an emergency landing in Cleveland, and United, the company that owned the plane identified it as the missing United Flight 93. That made the national news before it disappeared.
How could channel 9, the mayor of Cleveland, and United Airlines all have been mistaken about whether United Flight 93 did or did not land at the Cleveland airport, after they all publicly stated that it did?
Here is something funny about Flight 93, the supposed crash site showed no evidence whatever of plane parts, body parts, luggage, blood or anything. We are told to believe that when the plane crashed, it buried itself entirely in the ground. Can you really believe that?
What is more, apparently the large scar in the ground that we are told is where Flight 93 crashed (and buried itself as though the solid earth were quicksand) shows up on satellite imagery of that land that was taken years BEFORE 9/11.
We are so being lied to by our government and our media.

Four planes were hijacked, two were crushed into the World trade center. In order for that to happen on the only day of the year the air force couldn't respond in time and when it did the planes were sent the other way, there had to be an information leak or share between the terrorists and someone from the inside.

Clearly the story of what really happened to United Flight 93 is full of unanswered questions. But how silly do you have to be to think that a plane that was forced down out of the sky would bury itself, nose, fuselage, wings, tail and all under solid earth, leaving no identifiable trace of plane wreckage at the surface?

What do you mean, R309. "let's just say that that is true?"
Are you implying that the eye-witness reporter on live TV with his camera pointed at the smoking crater in the Pentagon and NO CRASHED PLANE IN SIGHT is possibly mistaken and that maybe you are correct and maybe there really is a plane crash hiding somewhere on that front lawn???
Who knows what really happened? Ask Donald Rumsfeld or Ehud Barak. I am sure they could tell you.
My guess is that a military plane painted to look like Flight 77 buzzed the Pentagon and fired a Tomahawk missile at it. Then the plane, being a stealth jet, rose as instantly vertically as possible over the skies of DC while all eyes were focused on the fireball at the Pentagon. A plane was photographed and filmed flying over the skies of DC shortly after the Pentagon was hit.
he missile hit the accounting department where $2.3 trillion dollars was reported "missing" the day before by Rumsfeld himself. That wing of the Pentagon had recently been reinforced to withstand a missile strike. This was probably done with the foreknowledge that they were going to fire a missile at their own headquarters and they wanted to limit the damage.
I assure you this is just my theory, although it is shared in whole or in part by many others. People who said they saw a plane were correct. They were simply mistaken in thinking that the plane was the object that hit the Pentagon. It may have appeared to, but it was really a missile, either fired by the plane or by another source that hit the building while leaving the lawn out front green and untouched. Anyone who says the plane crashed in front of the Pentagon hasn't the evidence very carefully.
Correct me if I am wrong, R310, but wasn't Ariel Sharon PM of Israel on 9/11?Israeli involvement with the Neocons presumably would have been mainly from Likud Party members.
by Anonymous | reply 312 | July 20, 2015 1:10 AM |
Why do you trust the eyewitness account of one man, who saw the object, over dozens of others? Because it fits your theory, not because of the weight of evidence.
You can keep obsessing on whether part of the object hit the ground before hitting the Pentagon all you want. That's a convenient distraction. Because part of your argument points at the grounds OUTSIDE the Pentagon and demands debris. But if the object, be it plane or missile, didn't hit the ground before hitting the Pentagon why should there be any debris there at all? I just want as much scrutiny on your theory as you demand of others.
by Anonymous | reply 313 | July 20, 2015 1:17 AM |
R313, I see that you do not grasp the very details of the side you are defending. Behold, the official account of what the plane did at the Pentagon:
According to the 9/11 Commission Report, as Flight 77 was 5 miles (8.0 km) west-southwest of the Pentagon, it made a 330-degree turn. At the end of the turn, it was descending through 2,200 feet (670 m), pointed toward the Pentagon and downtown Washington. Hani Hanjour advanced the throttles to maximum power and dived toward the Pentagon. While level above the ground and seconds from the crash, the wings knocked over five street lampposts and the right wing struck a portable generator, creating a smoke trail seconds before smashing into the Pentagon. Flight 77, flying at 530 mph (853 km/h, 237 m/s, or 460 knots) over the Navy Annex Building adjacent to Arlington National Cemetery, crashed into the western side of the Pentagon in Arlington County, Virginia, just south of Washington, D.C., at 09:37:46, killing all 64 people on board: 59 victims (including six crew members) and the five perpetrators. The plane hit the Pentagon at the first-floor level, and at the moment of impact, the airplane was rolled slightly to the left, with the right wing elevated. The front part of the fuselage disintegrated on impact, while the mid and tail sections moved for another fraction of a second, with tail section debris penetrating furthest into the building. In all, the airplane took eight-tenths of a second to fully penetrate 310 feet (94 m) into the three outermost of the building's five rings and unleashed a fireball that rose 200 feet (61 m) above the building.
These are your side's facts and if you won't reconsider, then you must embrace the claim that the plane folded up in its entirety and vanished into a hole it plowed into the building. Apart from a few smallish shreds of shattered metal, the whole of the plane is alleged to have entered the Pentagon. That's what YOUR side says. You are fucking a chicken that was put to rest before twelve noon on 9/11 when you say the plane fell short of its target.
The debris field and the crater that we see at the Pentagon occupy a space that appears to many to be too small to have been created by a passenger jet. The initial hole was fairly circular and shorter in diameter than the dimensions of a full-sized jet. The trench-like crater that we see in pictures only happened forty-five minutes later when the roof and the remains of the upper floors caved in. Also, the 9/1 Commission itself says the plane was practically on the ground and flying almost parallel to the ground when it hit the first floor. The plane would have dumped itself had either of its wings titled just a few feet and touched the ground. That is a remarkable bit of flying for anyone. Some think it literally cannot be done. We're supposed to believe that a man who never commanded even a small plane could pull off the aerial acrobatics that Hanjour supposedly did his first time at the helm of a 757.

The "military drill" aspect has always been used by truthers as proof of government collusion. A leak (either via "legit" spying or Shadow Government bullshit) is a MUCH better explanation than expecting all these military "super villains" to collude.

The reason I do not believe the U.S. planned it is because Bin Laden and Al Qaeda committed attacks prior to 9-11 overseas, and continued to after. Remember the 93 Twin Tower car bomb, London bombings, U.S. Embassy Kenya bombings... Even Al Jazeera reported that Bin Laden was emboldened to attack the Twin Towers after Clinton nearly killed him in Kandahar. Now, I will admit that it is fishy that Bin Laden originally denied any involvement and said Al Qaeda were not responsible for the attacks but he later started to claim responsibility for the attacks.

How does jet fuel that burns off within oh 10 to 15 min melt steel or keep burning for the next 99 days? Or melt cars,busses,and firetrucks. You made a statement no bombs were used well yes. They were. If you will look at the Naudet brothers video,the ones that first video taped the first plane,you will see that all the windows in the lobby were completely blown out and the lobby was blown apart. Jet fuel coming down an elevator shaft does not do this. Sorry. Second. How does solid steel turn into dust in mid air? A 100 foot steel girder. Third. In the history of the world 3 solid steel frame skyscrapers collapse in their own foot print at free fall speed. Do you know what free fall speed means? That means there was no pancake effect like everyone has been told. It means that the floors below were blown away so it would fall in on itself. Building 7 was not hit by a plane plus the script that it had collapsed was aired on BBC TV with the building in plain sight behind the reporter!! I could go on and on and on about the 2.3 trillion dollars that were lost and juuust so happened to hit the Navel office where the records were in the Pentagon but I won't. Much less here's the real kicker. 757 aircraft can not fly at those speeds at sea level. Period!! Nor at the Pentagon 5 feet off the ground. The planes turbulence would have pushed it up and over the Pentagon. Bottom line is yes our government did kill all those people that day to hide the fact of lost trillions and to start another war to make more trillions. That's the facts and that's truth. If you can dispute any facts Ive just said please. I'm all ears.

Defenders of the official story never want to talk about the fires that burned underground for weeks after 9/11 at Ground Zero, or the pools of molten steel that were found beneath the rubble. Even though we have video, photographic and recorded verbal testimony about the molten metal, they all have to pretend it didn't exist because neither jet fuel nor office fires can burn remotely hot enough to liquefy steel. When the fires that burned underground were finally extinguished, it was the top story in the local NY news. But now, they kind of need you to forget those fires burned for weeks and weeks because that also points to an event that created heat of a far higher temperature than the official story-tellers can account for.

Plus we know for a fact that the Bush Administration manufactured evidence totally independent of 9/11 to attack Iraq.
It seems you have solved the mystery for us - not only is there no sound evidence to support a Bush 9/11 conspiracy but there is evidence to support the conclusion there was no conspiracy. There was intent to launch wars on these two countries already in place.

r369 what do you mean a time glitch? Someone posted on a widely read site that WTC7 'may collapse' 4 hours before it actually did. It's just ... odd.
Before 9/11 nobody would look at a steel skyscraper that was on fire and think: "Gee, it might collapse."
Now, after 9/11, nobody thinks that either, because it just never happens.

So I have to assume R373 that you don't actually have an argument to dispute my conclusions.
I freely admit that the idea of a 9/11 Bush conspiracy is boring. I've been reading Larry Sabato's THE KENNEDY HALF CENTURY. Now, that isn't boring. Sabato doesn't make an argument for a conspiracy to kill Kennedy. But he is making, at this point in my reading, a great argument for how the actions of our government after the assassination fostered conspiracy theories.
What I find not so boring is people's thinking on this subject. The way they formulate their opinions. For example why self identify as Truthers? It leads me to the question are all "birthers" "truthers" but not all "turthers" are "birthers"?
What I do find interesting is that R367 has posted links to support the idea of a 9/11 Bush conspiracy which actually disputes the conspiracy theory. That is interesting. How delusional do you have to be to not see that?
But the other details posted so far have been so widely disputed it is boring.
To be honest it's like Creationism. The discussion of whether or not Creationism is a legitimate scientific theory is boring. Many reputable scientists won't even engage on the subject.
But the perverted and twisted thinking that goes into supporting creationism is interesting. Just like the 9/11 conspiracy perverted and twisted thinking is interesting.

Precisely, R375, on the one hand, we have to believe that the collapse of WTC 7 was such a wildly rare and random event that it took NIST years to invent a "New Phenomenon of Thermal Expansion" to explain it, yet on the day of 9/11 there were several people (recorded on video, no less) going around hours before the unprecedented collapse declaring with certainty that the building was going to come down. How could they have predicted the results of a "New Phenomenon of Thermal Expansion" when no one had ever observed such a phenomenon? (A "phenomenon" that will never occur again, no doubt.)

R379 - now you have really hurt my feelings. Let me ask you something. I'm a fan of Joss Whedon. Movies and TV - but I just can't manage to watch Dollhouse. Do you like the show?
I think binge watching Buffy is good for lots of folks. I have a stressful job and to be honest too many of my direct reports think they would like to have my job. So I sometimes get a little paranoid. For some reason watching Buffy helps calm the paranoia. Anyways, that's one of the reasons I suggested it. Although I'd skip season four.
That said - why waste your time on this conspiracy theory? There are actual concerns you should focus on which are current. Assume the federal government planned 9/11. OK - what nex?. Well look at the NSA. What are they doing? Now part of me thinks I'd like the conspiracy theory folks looking into that. On the other hand since your evidence is so weak on the 9/11 theories, well maybe not a good idea.

Dollhouse is a great premise that just didn't gel. I didn't watch the whole run, but nothing clicked for me. Firefly was the real gem.
Buffy will be well regarded for decades.
As a "truther" I can tell you I have no idea if the government planned it, if it was an intelligence leak, a colossal fuckup or a "false flag" by the Deep State. The latter seems more likely when viewed through the lens of "revisionist history" - not the bodice-ripping kind, but the type that closely examines key incidents in history and then looks more deeply at the contemporary events (like the strangely conflicting stories given by Bush #41 and his wife Barbara in their respective autobiographies about the events of that day in November 1963, or the behind the scenes action in the days before Pearl Harbor) and examines how "official history" is often at variance with "what really happened".
Another example would be the Civil War. There is no harm in pointing out that the Emancipation Proclamation only affected Confederate states while leaving slavery in Union states untouched, or that Lincoln wanted to ship all black Americans (free or slave) back to Africa. These facts do not change the history, but they do call into question the "narrative thrust" of many arguments over the "civility" of the Civil War.
Once you begin to see behind the curtain of the "accepted interpretation of what happened" and can poke holes in those mainstream beliefs...well, it's like the Matrix. You quickly find out what you "know" is suspect.
As far as impact on your day to day life? Well, knowing that virtually everything you hear or see or read in the "news" is either slanted or bullshit is helpful.

Thus, as always, the free market began developing its own solutions. Earlier this year an inventor by the name of Benjamin Caudill announced a device he dubbed the ProxyHam which was going to literally change everything about how those concerned with privacy could connect to the internet:
“I PRESENT PROXYHAM, A HARDWARE DEVICE WHICH UTILIZES BOTH WIFI AND THE 900MHZ BAND TO ACT AS A HARDWARE PROXY, ROUTING LOCAL TRAFFIC THROUGH A FAR-OFF WIRELESS NETWORK – AND SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASING THE DIFFICULTY IN IDENTIFYING THE TRUE SOURCE OF THE TRAFFIC. IN ADDITION TO A DEMONSTRATION OF THE DEVICE ITSELF, FULL HARDWARE SCHEMATICS AND CODE WILL BE MADE FREELY AVAILABLE.”
Rhino Security Labs via HackRead
What Caudill had built is a device that would mix up your personal WIFI signal in such a way that no one, not even the National Security Agency, could track down where it originated.
That, of course, is not something the government wants in the hands of ordinary citizens, and the events of the last week show exactly how dangerous of a device this is to the Big Brother Surveillance State.
---
Just hours before Caudill was to reveal a fully-functioning ProxyHam at the DefCon hacking conference his presentation was abruptly cancelled. No reason was given and Caudill posted several cryptic Tweets that left many baffled.
The device had been disappeared, the company was cancelling production on retail units, and the source code and blueprints would no longer be released to the public.

Over the weekend, some followers of the project speculated that the FCC had barred Caudill from selling the device because it violated laws that control the use of radio spectrum. But Caudill denied that explanation, too, saying that ProxyHam’s radio output remained below 1 watt, the legal limit. “We had no contact or issue with the FCC throughout the project,” he said.
In fact, it seems much more likely that Caudill has been issued some sort of gag order. Did he have a run-in with law enforcement? “No comment,” Caudill responded.

The funniest thing about this thread are the YT videos which the truthers are using as "FACTS" to support their theories. Any qualified scientist can and has debunked every one of them already. Of course the truthers will just say that those experts are shills and inside operatives who are in on the conspiracy. You simply cannot argue with someone who is that far gone. I have FACT. I posted early in the thread that a family member Terry was on the UA flight . That is a fact. If you are trying to tell me that she did not die, or that her plane was diverted to CLE where she and her pax were offloaded into another aircraft which was flown west by a remote controlled plane and dumped into the Pacific Ocean, and that woman with 35 years of experience married to a UA pilot didn't make a call in CLE to her husband and inform him of the change in ships....you truly are so insane and you just can't use common sense. Do you think that a crew would board a ship with unknown pilots(which I suppose would be actors posing as pilots) headed to LAX and just go with the flow?? That's NOT the way CRM works dude. NO ONE would go with that. And if your lunatic scenario of the CLE ship headed west is not true, then where the hell is Terry?? Do you think her husband would just accept the conclusion if there were even a chance that it seemed shady?
I feel sorry for you and others who have made this such a central part of their lives. It happened. It's done. Accept it. Or is your own life so disappointing or out of control that you are seeking some causal proof that life isn't fair and the decks are stacked? I have never, and I mean never met a conspiracy theorist who was well adjusted and prospering in their own life. They all seem to be perpetually pissed off that life isn't giving then a fair deal. So they look everywhere for proof that no matter what they may try to do or hope for, TPTB are always going to fuck them over. If you put half as much brain power and effort into improving your lot in life as you have on this cuckoo plot, you might actually achieve something and thus live the life you had hoped for.

This comment is reminiscent of W. Bush's address to the nation in the immediate aftermath, in which he instructed the nation to get up and go to work and get back to "business as usual" the next day.
Once the Neocons had the "New Pearl Harbor" they needed to launch "America's New War" and against Iraq, and Afghanistan, and had the context to introduce the overweening surveillance society (so beloved by Bolsheviks and Neocons,) and rid lower Manhattan of those asbestos-laden white elephants known as the Twin Towers, and demolished the SEC headquarters in WTC 7 where millions of documents to be used against Enron and WorldComm were housed, and once they hit the accounting dept. of the Pentagon to provide cover for the missing $2.3 trillion Rumsfeld copped to the day before 9/11, the only concern was that ordinary people might get spooked from spending money and being materialistic. So Bush's first advice to us in this Brave New World was "everybody get back to work!"
Nothing to see here, folks. There would NEVER have been an investigation into 9/11 at all if the Neocons had their way. I would love to hear defenders of the official story tell us why the Neocons felt there was no compelling reason for the Federal government to investigate 9/11. Common sense says they were covering their own tracks.

R406 I would say that either the mayor or the television station was incorrect, just as many of the bystanders were mistaken after watching the aircraft hit the towers. One anchor said t was a smaller plane such as a B727, one said it was a 4 engine jumbo jet, one said it appeared to be a Gulfstream or other corporate jet. Flights were rerouted and diverted all over the place that morning, and it's not at all surprising that there was confusion. It's human error. Are you aware that the NTSB practically discounts any eyewitness testimony when investigating an airplane disaster? Do you know why that is? It's because humans have difficulty processing such traumatic occurrences as they happen, and what they THINK they see is usually not what they saw. Nearly every time a plane crashes, and you can research this, eyewitnesses will report that "the plane exploded right before it hit the ground." That has never happened. They cannot process the impact, the explosion and the black cloud of jet fuel as it actually occurs. A LOT of the so called FACTS about what happened on 9/11 is based on eyewitness accounts, and that is precisely why I take each story with a grain of salt. Any atty will tel you that an eyewitness to a crime is the worst witness to count on when making a case. DNA and other physical proof is much better because science doesn't depend on imperfect assessment to be accurate.

The reason I hesitate to think it was planned is because the CIA WARNED the Bush administration several times in direct memos stating Bin Laden to hit Twin Towers with planes. The CIA also was not on board about invading Iraq. An agent and her operation was outed because of it. It amazes me that Bush got the highest approval ratings ever recorded after 9-11.

Some were so scared they voted for the war in Iraq because they feared backlash from their constituents. These assholes spent millions of taxpayer dollars investigating a blow job, but did not do a damn thing investigating the biggest attack on our nation. The sad part is Bush probably feels no remorse at all for 2 of the worst disasters in our history- 9-11 and Katrina- happening on his watch. The early 2000s were a very ugly time in our nation’s history. I don’t even want to get into the fascist tropes Karl Rove and co. helped push. The ginormous investment and focus on defense and protecting the homeland, having an essentially state-sponsored media, the manufactured public vitriol directed at anti-war France, Dan Rather, the Dixie Chicks, Rosie O'Donnell, among others. It should be no wonder our standing in the world plummeted. Everyone marveled at American stupidity, and laughed at us for standing by Bush waving flags and eating freedom fries like blind sheep for the slaughter.

And now the crown jewel for the neo-cons and Zionists is Iran. That was the second conquest they had in the works after taking out Saddam. My respect for Obama has re-emerged this year because this was a very gutsy and brave move on his part. Obama knows this is what the chickenhawks plan put on ice was. I am glad he sweeped the rug from under them. This deal has thwarted their plans. This deal along with the oil independence we have developed under his tenure has greatly weakened Saudi Arabia's political leverage with us. Make no mistake that the Saudi Arabian, Israeli, and the neocon political heavyhitters hate his guts. I salute him. Dare I say it but I doubt Hillary would have even had the guts...

I am proud of Obama, despite his CIA ties and NWO bullshit, over the Cuba and Iran deals.
But I'm not gullible enough to suck his cock, and think he is almost as bad as Bush 2. Your trust in government blinds you to the evil rot at the core.

And your belief that anything can happen without government makes one think you have brain damage. Obama did not have GWB arrested. If he had, our whole history would be different. BUT he is certainly not in a class with the others. Just the fact that he did deals with Iran and Cuba shows that he has a concept of American national interest, which the GOP doesn't even pretend to have any more.

Wow. So much stupid in so few words.
I hope you're trolling- I can't believe an adult on this website is that ignorant.

What I find most remarkable is that on that morning, before the terrorist attack was explained, many of our initial gut reactions to the footage of the buildings collapsing uniformly was that it seemed so unreal like a projection in a bad movie. It was like living out a hellish nightmare. The only thing that confuses me is that though the plane hit and the buildings crashed with the speed and precision one would expect during a controlled demolition via remote controlled airliner, the towers did not fall instantly like one would expect in an explosion. The edited footage shown on the news, showing the planes hitting the towers and the resulting collapse, makes it seem like the buildings fell immediately after they were hit but that is not the case. The buildings collapsed an hour after the planes struck. If the planes were laden with explosives, wouldn't it have detonated as soon as it crashed? I am still not sold on it being an inside job, but I am not sold on the government's official account either especially regarding the Pentagon

My other question that makes me doubt the inside job theory is if the civilian aircraft hijacking was all a ruse, then what explains the victims and the log of emergency calls made from Flight 93? Sure, calls can be doctored but victims and their families can not.

"Sure, calls can be doctored but victims and their families can not. " One theory is that they were taken to a second location (as the plane was said by one controller to have landed) whereupon the passengers were killed by who knows who. Crazy I know, but do any of us REALLY know the truth?

Get a load of this - at 11:07 on the morning of 9/11 a CNN correspondent claimed that a third building of about 50 stories was reported believed to have collapsed at 10:45 - a full 15 minutes after the second tower came down.
NIST wants us to believe that the collapse of WTC 7 was due to a "new phenomenon of thermal expansion" - a phenomenon it took them years to identify, so how on earth could anyone have predicted it? Yet here is this reporter who it appears has been sent on TV to describe what can only be the collapse of WTC 7 - over six hours BEFORE it happened! How could anyone reporting from lower Manhattan have been mistaken as to whether a third skyscraper did or did not come tumbling down before noon on 9/11?
It seems likely WTC 7 was scripted to come down that morning and something went wrong - maybe the fourth plane, Flight 93 was supposed to hit it and failed to arrive. Then maybe they had to just wait until later in the afternoon to go ahead and demolish it anyway. At any rate,this report that aired live on CNN is highly suspicious as a supposed eye-witness describes an event he couldn't possibly have really seen. A similar scenario would play out six hours later when the BBC in London and its on-the-scene reporter in Manhattan would provide a detailed story about the collapse of WTC 7 - almost a half an hour before it actually happened.

R442---That's an interesting take---" maybe the fourth plane, Flight 93 was supposed to hit it and failed to arrive. Then maybe they had to just wait until later in the afternoon to go ahead and demolish it anyway." Thanks for that and the ideo.

I recall watching the live news reporting that afternoon and a reporter saying that Building 7 had also collapsed, which happened about 30 minutes later.

yeah, the reporters got the script too early.

Here is another interesting artcile that describes the altogether likely scenario that Flight 93 was supposed to appear after the Twin Towers fell and cleared a path for it to strike WTC 7. Imagine all the survivors who might have died had the third plane hit WTC7 that morning to provide cover for the nearly immediate controlled demolition of that building while the area was still full of people.
If the plane was shot down, it makes sense that the planners would have to wait to clear the area of as many witnesses as possible before they went ahead and took down WTC 7 anyway. It was obviously wired for demolition and it did have all those incriminating documents against Enron and WorldComm and other criminal Republican enterprises.
