Sujet: Re: Third of Americans suspect 9-11 Government Conspiracy (2006)
Artful Dodger: "Not one shred of evidence"?
Actually, there is massive amounts of evidence that:
1. The invasions of Afghanistan & Iraq were fully planned before 9/11. 2. The goal was control of the oil in Central Asia by a permanent military presence there. 3. That the only ingredient missing was "a new Pearl Harbor" to galvanize the American people into enthusiasm for war & a willingness to finance it. 4. That pre-9/11 investigations by FBI agents into the alleged hijackers were obstructed from above. 5. That NORAD failed to follow Standard Operating Procedure on 9/11, essentially allowing the attacks to occur. 6. That the Twin Towers & WTC-7 came down by controlled demolition. 7. That Flight AA77 did not strike the Pentagon. 8. That Flight 93 was shot down by the military. 9. That the Pakistani ISI (which is connected closely with our CIA) and the Saudi Royal Family (these are our two so-called "Allies") were heavily involved in the implementation of the plot. 10. That many of the so-called hijackers are reported to be alive and well. 11. That the Bush administration strongly resisted an official investigation. 12. That further investigations of official complicity have been obstructed from high levels of government, including the FBI. 13. That the 9/11 Commissions Report contains numerous distortions & glaring omissions, and is a revisionist document at its worst.
Furthermore, each of these points can be subdivided, as evidence is supplied through news reports, eye-witness accounts, expert analysis from various fields, etc., to bolster them. And these are only the points that occurred to me now as I type.
Furthermore, this evidence is easily available to everyone, through the internet, through books & DVDs. The internet is a great source because there are exhaustive compilations of information gleaned from newspaper reports, magazine articles, interviews, etc.
The real issue with you, Dan (as I see it), is that you refuse to acknowledge the possibility that any of these sources of information has provided or can provide "a shred of evidence". And if it is not possible beforehand, then why bother to look at it? I would argue that that is an a priori argument which is prima facie untenable.
Incidentally, for those who are not opposed to "all the google searches", a google search on "evidence 9/11 is an inside job" is profitable.
And here are two links. The first is Patriots Question 9/11. There you can quickly & conveniently read what has been said against the official theory of 9/11 by...
160+ Senior Military, Intelligence Service, Law Enforcement, and Government Officials 660+ Engineers and Architects 170+ Pilots and Aviation Professionals 350+ Professors Question 9/11 230+ 9/11 Survivors and Family Members 190+ Artists, Entertainers, and Media Professionals
The second link is One Dollar DVDs. Here the organization, Veterans for 9/11 Truth (of which I am a member), supplies a plethora of documentaries about 9/11 and other subjects at the affordable rate of a dollar a DVD.
