    Default 9/11 question for allof ya

    Just a quick question.

    Do you think our government had anything to do with 9/11. It's something that has turned in my stomach
    for quite sometime. Just throwning it out there

    ask yourself, what would be the upside to the government causing 9/11?

    It's sort of like the Reichstag Fire, possibly.

    Or maybe not.

    At the end of the day, saying the govt did it and saying the govt didn't do it are both merely beliefs.

    Money,. to keep the war ongoing. I still don't know why we are still out there.
    It's like the terror threat is wearing itself so thin. I could not help feel that all that was being said and broadcast
    about the 9/11 10 year anniversary threat was just to continue having us americans in fear. It was just seemed like it was timed.
    Like "Oh that's right we need to turn up the threat level to 10"

    war on terror. spy laws passing easy. defense contracts.

    i don't think they have anything to do with planning it. at worst i can see them allowing it to happen but most likely incompetent intelligent agencies.

    meh. i don't think it's anything like the Reichstag and one isn't merely a 'belief'.

    one version of events is backed up by facts, the other by unfounded speculation.

    the conspiracy cat is long out of the bag though and people are going to believe what they want. if you want to believe our government is so powerful and coordinated and would bring itself to the brink of economic devastation - all for the short term gain of a war - then keep on truckin.

    i'm gonna go finish watching capricorn one.

    Facts are very often highlighted and selected, to the neglect or downplaying of other facts. Then again, there are many facts that we may not have access to.

    It's kind of humbling to realize how little we actually know.

    It's not that our govt or certain govt agencies are so supernaturally powerful, but you could easily argue they're more powerful than 19 al-Qaeda dudes.

    I will be honsest,..I don't want to believe it.

    There's so many questions that to this day remain unanswered.

    Two have always bothered me and I just can not get past them.

    1. Why did our millitary jets stay on the ground after the first building was hit.

    2. The families that lost loved ones in the Twin Towers. had to go all the way to the Supreme Court to
    try and find answers.

    There many more but these two have always left me wondering

    No I do not think they had anything to do with it. And I don't see the upside to all the deficit spending that has been needed to sustain these wars.

    They had everything to do with exploiting it in all the worst possible ways, at home and abroad, with horrible repercussions we may never recover from.

    But planning it? Come on Henry. No they didn't plan it. Any more than the UN is planning to herd us into FEMA concentration camps with black helicopters after Obama takes away all our guns in to pave the way for the reconquista.
    I have zero respect for all this kind of conspiracist noise, or for the people who advance it. Zero respect.
