all this talk is just senseless America-bashing. No one offers credible evidence of what they think, just that it "doesnt feel right."

Sorry, the idea of "truthiness" has already been mined for laughs by Steven Colbert. When you have some actual evidence to prove the ridiculous assertion that the American government plotted and began a plan to kill some 3,000 and more of its' citizens, to invade a country like Afghanistan, and then use ham-bones tactics to start a war they could have much easier started in 1991, get back to me.

Until then, you just prove your as racist as calculating as you claim the good ol' US of A of being.

I wasn't aware that questioning a government made one racist. Interesting factoid. Idea

Questioning a government isn't; alleging without proof that it is a mass killer of its own citizens is.

Anyway, given Alex Jones has so many distortions, errors, and unsourced claims in one single video, I would simply never use him as a source or authority.

If your boss keeps lying to you, do you trust his word ever again? It's about as simple as that.

Prior to 9/11, demolishing a building so that it would fall straight down and cause minimal damage to surrounding buildings took months of planning and carefully placed explosives. All of this was done by engineers who needed very expensive training in a university.


During 9/11, hell just fly an airplane into the building. No carefully placed explosives and doesn't require as much training. Still takes months to plan but only because you have to plan it so that you don't get caught by airport security.

In fact, wouldn't it be much cheaper just to fly an airplane into a building than to do all of that planning and all of that consulting with structural engineers?

Great idea! Let's do the experiment: Fly a plane into a steel skyscraper which has been thoroughly checked for explosives, and see if it falls at free-fall speed.

If it does, I'll admit bin Laden did it. If it doesn't, all you who continue to believe in the official fiction must admit that someone on our side is pulling a fast one and require a real investigation.

I have always questioned 9/11 and believe it is obvious those towers were brought down by controlled demolitions.



I believe it's obvious you're a moron. you obviously havent studied construction, engineering, or any other material sciences.

more likely you are a conspiracy theorist, and prior to September 11, 2001, you gravitated toward stories about little green men in roswell, nm and stories about atlantis.

you dishonor the people who died that day by insinuating it was anything than what it was.



Post kindly follow the Terms of Service. See the annoucements above where it talks about the guidelines for the forum. Engaging in ad hominem attacks and calling someone moron is not civil behavior.
Let's keep it civil.

Thank you,

So all the Americans who believe there was a government conspiracy are racist against themselves? I think you need to look up the definition of racist.

How is accusing a government of a multi-cultural country of some misdeed 'racist' though?

The shot to the head seems a bit superfluous!

I'm sorry, I may be an ignorant Canuck... but I don't remember any structural engineers saying that the planes should have caused the Twin Towers to fall... especially since they hit at such a high story. It seems to me that the buildings would have been rigged with some sort of safe guard against falling down in the case of high wind, or plane crash (intentional or not). Besides wasn't there another plane crash involving a building in New York? I don't think I remember that one falling down... wasn't it the Empire State Building?

Since the buildings did fall Straight down, and people reported the sounds of explosions coming from below them, then one could use that little bit of evidence to form some sort of "conspiracy theory" from that.

There is so much brainwashing that goes on in the media and so much mind control out there that it's not much of a stretch to think that MAYBE the "most powerful government" in the world could hatch a scheme as an excuse to start a war. War is good for business, it's GREAT for oil companies who ship huge amounts of product to the war zone at 100$ a liter... and who do we know is an oil man?

But like I said, I'm probably just an ignorant Canuck who only has 1 TV set per city and fights polar bears to get to the outhouse.

Tell you what. Instead of not remembering, why don't you email some structural engineers from your alma mater? Unless you let youtube vids suffice as your primary source of information? Do some god damned research.

Yes, it looks like this is a sufficient description.
