I would like to see you argue against everything put forward in LOOSE CHANGE and come off a winner.
I too hate conspiracy wankas but after listening to a good mate of mine and watching that film, I have to agree that there is something fishy about 911 and the american public are getting shafted.
I am still a long way from wearing a tshirt though and as I am not american couldnt really care less.

If you truly believe the American media has covered the POSSIBILITY of anyone other than Al Queda being responsible for 9/11, then listen to this interview with Tim Russert done with Jack Blood a while ago. This topic is not reportable in the mainstream media of the United States, period.

Yes, I agree. Kill them. No one should be questioning the government or the status quo. Korean netizens are a good example of how a lynch mob should react when one person's opinion is different. It is in the past, let it go. Same thing goes for asking questions about JFK and Jesus.

if for a second you could hypothesize that it could have been an inside job - think of who was doing the investigating?

it'd be like getting eazy-e to investigate the influx of cheap cocaine to poor areas of LA. consider the source.

not saying yea or nay either way - just think of who was in charge, and which house of cards could have toppled had anything unsavory gotten out.

and then, only then, should you stick your typing finger back in your anus.

Must have been that conspiracy of "19 Arabs with box cutters" as our government would never lie to us.

But wait, 8 of the 19 have been shown to still be alive.

Hmmm, they can't be alive, our government told us they flew those planes into those buildings, except Bldg. 7 of course, and our government would never lie to us.

Don't kill them, make them suffer - like Zundel and Rudolf - for daring to question what our government tells us are the facts about a historical event.

There is no 9/11 conspiracy you morons.

I've been getting a lot of email lately from people sending me this stupid 9/11 conspiracy video called "Loose Change." I've tried to ignore it for months now, but you morons keep forwarding it to me, and I keep having to add more email addresses to my spam filter. The ironic part is that I'm a huge conspiracy nut, and even I can't stomach this bullshit. For example, I believe that there is a small, reptile-like creature called Chupacabra that sucks the blood of goats in Mexico. Area 51? Hell yes. Roswell? Pass me the Kool-Aid. But "Loose Change" elevates bullshit to an artform. Watching this video is like being bukakked with stupid.

Unlike others who debunk 9/11 conspiracy theories, or "cons" for short, I'm not going to bother with going through intricate point-by-point rebuttals, or pointing out the hundreds of factual inaccuracies and outright lies in this "documentary," because I don't need to. In fact, I can debunk the entire story with one simple observation:

The fact that this man is alive...


...is proof that "Loose Change" is bullshit.

Here's why:

1. The man in the picture above is Dylan Avery. To be more precise, the fact that Dylan, his friends, and family are alive, is proof that "Loose Change" is bullshit. He, along with a couple of his friends, created a 9/11 conspiracy video claiming that the US government and the military caused 9/11. Take a closer look at the last part of that last sentence: he's claiming that the US government, for whatever ends, killed nearly 3,000 innocent Americans, and tens if not hundreds of thousands of more lives in the conflicts that ensued because of it.

2. Since Dylan's arguing that the government has no problem killing 3,000 innocent people, this raises the question: if his documentary is true, and we've established that the government has no ethical qualms about killing thousands of its own people, then why wouldn't the government kill Avery and his friends as well? What's a few more lives to them to ensure the success of this conspiracy?

Whatever reason it may be that the government supposedly orchestrated this conspiracy, it must have been worth it to them to cause so much suffering and loss of life. So if there's any truth to this, then you can bet your ass that the government wouldn't let a couple of pecker-neck chumps with a couple of Macs and too much time on their hands jeopardise their entire operation by letting this stupid video float around on the Internet. I can picture you morons emailing me now: "BUT MADOX, MAYBE DYLAN POSTED IT ON THE INTERNET BEFORE THE GOVERNMENT HAD A CHANCE TO REMOVE IT LOL." Yeah, too bad this rebuttal is inconsistent with the premise of Dylan's shit-festival of a movie: that the WTC was brought down "in a carefully planned and controlled demolition ... and it was pulled off with military precision." Now we're expected to believe that the same government that was able to commit the largest terrorist operation in history--with military precision no less--is suddenly too incompetent to sniff out and shut down a little website set up by some college losers within days, if not minutes of its creation?

I win. There is no conspiracy. Eat my shit, losers.

The other type of 9/11 conspiracy email you dipshits keep sending is the $20 dollar WTC conspiracy. Glenn Beck--a loud-mouthed, fat-faced asshole on CNN--has a copy of it on his website:

The new U.S. $20 dollar bill contains hidden pictures of the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks!

Yes! see for yourself...

1st) FOLD A NEW $20 BILL THIS WAY:



2nd) CONTINUE TO FOLD THIS WAY
Compare your fold precisely to this picture.



3rd) FOLD THE RIGHT SIDE UNDER,
exactly as you folded the left side.

You'll immediately see the Pentagon ablaze! (red circle)




4th) NOW FLIP IT OVER AND SEE OTHER SIDE

The Twin Towers of the World Trade Center are hit and smoking.



What are the odds that a simple geometric folding of the $20 bill would accidentally contain a representation of both terror attacks?

What are the odds that a simple geometric folding of a $20 bill with elements of design that were conceived in 1928 by a committee of treasurers, a full 42 years before the World Trade Center even existed, could accidentally contain a representation of both terror attacks? Pretty good, apparently.

The article on Beck's page goes on to ask: Need even more proof? No, you cock! You had me at "the U.S. $20 dollar bill contains hidden pictures of the World Trade Center." As if a folded picture of shrubbery on a bill that kind of looks like smoke wasn't convincing enough of a conspiracy, Beck offers this gem on his site to sway those few remaining skeptics:



This is followed by the fact that 9+11 = 20, and in big red letters:

COINCIDENCE? YOU DECIDE!

The question mark at the end of "COINCIDENCE" is clearly there to denote a rhetorical question, as clearly, this is not a coincidence. To help out Glenn Beck, I sat down with a $100 bill and tried to find any hidden messages the bill might contain. Here's one that he hasn't found yet:

Step 1:

Fold the bill so that the "ON" of "ONE" is covered:



Step 2:

Fold again like so, covering "HU" of "HUNDRED:"



Step 3:

Another fold covering part of "DOLLARS:"


Step 4:

Finally make one last fold, and with a magic marker, add the following letters to reveal a hidden message!



Coincidence? YOU DECIDE!




Further Reading:

For anyone interested in a point-by-point debunking of some of the most popular conspiracy theories out there (like the fact that steel melts at 1525� C, and although jet fuel burns only at 825� C, it doesn't have to burn hot enough to melt to cause the buildings to collapse, since steel loses 50% of its strength at 648 � C), check out the following links:

Funny stuff, indeed. Still, all his credibility goes out the window when he cites the "Popular Mechanics" article.
