Sure. But I've not noticed them killing innocent Americas at home. The claim is the CIA or some group of Americans will kill massive number of innocent Americans in a power grab. That I'd like to at least see some evidence of actually happening in the past. Like I say it's a big, big leap. And maybe space aliens are behind this...


Really though?

How many acts of terror have occurred on American soil in the recent past?


I'm sorry you're trying to use a conspiracy theory to prove the probability of another conspiracy theory. Give me something we can reasonably agree on. Not speculation to promote speculation.

But it isn't all speculation. There is evidence. It just isn't complete and direct.

What is it, then? The allegation we are dealing with is the military-industrial complex/Pentagon/CIA plans to nuke a major American city in order to seize power and establish martial law and/or an outright dictatorship.

What have you got?

Wrong. My claim is that rogue members of the MIC/Pent/CIA have previously demonstrated at least a desire to facilitate false flag terror in America.

Hows this?

Very well. Let us abandon the thread's claim and deal exclusively with yours, then.

Identify these "rogue elements" as specifically as you can. Units, divisions, budgets, officers, plans, etc. Then elaborate in precise language on "at least a desire to facilitate false-flag terror in America." And cite your evidence every step of the way.

Newspaper articles make very weak evidence on such matters. Rumors and hearsay. Little more than that. Like a Bob Woodward book. Sensational and entertaining. But at the end of the day, insufficient to send anyone to the gallows. Like the article you post: based on a confidential-informant's unsubstantiated allegations.

Do you have documents, memoirs, depositions, confessions, cross-examinations, inspectors-general reports, Congressional Committee investigations? Anything like that?

Like I said. Some evidence exists.

Like I said. No direct evidence exists.

Are we in disagreement here?

Yes. Your claim is unsustainable and, moreover, obscene -- as is OP's. You base all that you have alleged here on one confidential-informant's unsubstantiated allegations that have bore no fruit in over ten years. That is how old your story is, I remind you.

You strike me as a kind of instinct-driven antisocial animal that shows and reconfirms a certain stubborn inability and unwillingness to stop and think. You only know fear, running, and charging.

See my entries on pps. four and five, this thread. The Church Committee fully investigated and then dismissed your nonsense allegations in 1975.

I'm basing my opinion on the "some evidence".

That is my right, so you'll have to just deal with it.

And what is with the personal attack? Stop being so childish Gopher.[/i]

I guess we're still waiting on that Utah scientist's paper on bomb traces passing peer review, huh? Any update on that?

He put out a new paper on the microspheres and temperatures in during the fire. He uses past government reports of WTC dust to verify his findings. I'll dig it up for you if you are interested. A version of the paper has been accepted for a MS journal.

No word on the thermate yet. Independent non-truther scientists are still working with it.

Let me know if you want to read that paper.

Can you not just briefly summarize its evidence, findings, and ramifications for us in your own words?
