Sujet: Re:I am convinced that 9/11 was orchestrated & carried out by elements within the U.S. Government.
The Usurper: Much better. The "I am convinced" gives more credibility to your viewpoint. When someone says that something is a "slam dunk" or "clearly" or "right before our eyes" then I take it another way. When put in those terms, it's an offense. It's like saying the other person doesn't see what is obviously true. Or isn't smart enough. Or something. But "I am convinced" makes me wonder what it was that convinced you to your view and creates an interest in seeing the evidence (just the facts, not the interpretation).
For example: Building 7. Nothing you have said so far (up until a few days ago) grabbed me. But the web site with the 52 scholars reports did grab my attention a bit. And so I've looked at a number of youtube building (intentional) implosions and then the falling of wtc7. I also looked at as many huge skyscraper fires as I could find. And questions were raised in my head. Then I read the "debunking" sites to get the other side. So now I have questions. I have some ideas I want to pursue. I know that if I visit a conspiracy site, I'll get their one sided view. If I visit a debunking site, I'll get their one sided view. The scholar site is the best I've seen and I've only read a few pages so far.
Enough of that. I'm not convinced of a conspiracy but I do think there are too many unanswered questions floating out there.
