9/11 conspiracy theories

[Minimalist]

Raising questions is easy...creationist assholes do it all the time in the mistaken belief that if they poke a hole in evolution then their fucking bible becomes "true" by default.

Answers are a lot harder.

This video explores the claims and then you see these "authors" sitting there saying "nope," "not good enough", "not acceptable" etc., etc. but they never offer an answer of their own.

Here is Part one:

If we cared about the people of the world we would be in the Congo/Rwandan.

I have said this time and time again. these countries are a nightmare and nothing ever seems to be done.

Welcome to the wonderful world of realpolitik.

Nations ALWAYS act in their perceived best interest. ALL non hostile relations between nations are quid pro quo. Hostile relations may of course be unilateral and/or pre emptive,as say the Nazi invasion of Poland or the US invasion of Iraq or even currently, the UN attacking Libya. As a TV commentator said last night ;"if Libya had oranges instead of oil, I wonder how fast the UN would have acted." Same goes for the US and Iraq.

Realpolitik (see also Political realism; from German: real “realistic”, “practical” or “actual”; and Politik “politics”, German pronunciation: [ʁeˈaːlpoliˌtiːk]) refers to politics or diplomacy based primarily on power and on practical and material factors and considerations, rather than ideological notions or moralistic or ethical premises. In this respect, it shares aspects of its philosophical approach with those of realism and pragmatism. The term realpolitik is sometimes used pejoratively to imply politics that are coercive, amoral, or Machiavellian. Realpolitik is a theory of politics that focuses on considerations of power, not ideals, morals, or principles. Balancing power to keep the European pentarchy was the means for keeping the peace, and careful Realpolitikers tried to avoid arms races.

the BBC had a good programme on the conspiracy theories.

I found the BBC one to be pretty anti-conspiracy to be honest. It would give one piece of evidence to show it could be a back door job and then would attempt to put it to bed with some qualified persons testimony.

The best 9/11 conspiracy documentary i've watched has to be this one:

9/11 was the best Christmas present the Neocons could've hoped for.

While I don't exactly think there was a large conspiracy, if any, I do believe certain politicians were completely in position to take full advantage of such an event.

One doesn't need to blow up the levees to profit from the break.

I have a gig on "9/11" this year... I am pretty sure it will be the most significant thing to ever have happened on that date.
