The US government did it

[Hobbit]

been checking out the 911 discussion on craigslist earlier today. There are some bonefide lunatics who think it was all a conpiracy. Tower 7 couldnt have collapsed... yeah like having the other two towers fall on top of it wouldnt have damaged the building..

And of course there was the conspiracy nuts who were arguing that there had to be explosives because jet fuel doesn't burn hot neough to weaken steel. Never mind the fact that it's obvious he cant figure out the difference between Tempature in Celsuis and Fahrenheit.

seriously these people are just nuts.

I always use Kelvin just to confuse everybody.

No, it was the philosohpers.

Anybody who didn't get these jokes needs to play more video games.

What's a video game?

I wonder if jet fuel burns at anywhere near the same temp as the fuel truck that made the BAY bridge COLLAPSE. Metal will melt when hot enough, huh? Or maybe the US government was behind the Bay Bridge collapse, too.

of course they were Gadget, the Gov loves to cost us millions and ppl's lives and stuff with these disasters. science be damned....cause we all know metal is heat resistant...that is why the space shuttle doesn't melt.

Is this a joke?

Well it may be sarcasm, then again it may be tinfoil?

I had an interesting conversation with a young man this weekend. A bunch of us motorcycle riding fools went to Leesburg, FL for a little motorcycle rally....rented a 6 BR house with pool and jacuzzi, and had a great time. Being that I am a night owl, I ended up being one of the last 3 people awake on Friday night, and got into an interesting conversation with a 22yr old young man, who, shall I say, is slightly confused.......

Over many beers the conversation turned to politics, and 9/11. He is absolutely convinced that the US government is the reason for the towers coming down....not that their weren't terrorists, but that the US government funded the whole operation, so that we could go after Muslims in the Middle East.

I asked him why, and he quoted Rosie O'Donnell, and claimed their are THOUSANDS of facts pointing to the culpability of our government. I asked him to give me 10......and he came up with some opinions, and guesses.....nothing more than hypothesis, and hyperbole......

I asked him how many in the US government were aware....how many would it take to coordinate such an endeavor, and he said the number had to be in the hundreds, if not 1000......at which point I asked why none of them were troubled by their deeds and have come forward to gain the fame that such a wild tale would lead to......again.....they were paid off, so highly that they don't need or want the notoriety that such an incredible tale would give.

Has anyone else ever encountered such an individual who so wholly believes the conspiracy that they are unable to fathom any other possibility?

It was an interesting conversation, to say the least.

I believe it. Not that there aren't terrorists. Our government is not morally above a false flag attack. They've done it before. And military/government types are taught to follow orders, not think for themselves, be moral, or tell the truth.

Man, you've gone over the edge.

Truth is that any group with power can create a false flag attack. It doesn't neccessarily have to be generated by the government.

Does the government ever lie, Mr. P?

[Doniston]

I'd agree that there are some problems with the offical 9/11 story. And I think there have been periods in the history of the US where we have let things happen in order to create a justification to go to war (Pearl Harbor, Gulf of Tonkin). But, I don't think they have near enough evidence to prove the conspiracy theories surrounding 9/11, though.

Agree, there are holes so the official story dosen't quite make sense.

[Monkeybone]

yes that was sarcasm/joke

and you say this young man siad this? i have noticed a tren among ppl my age...it is cool/mature/rep worthy to hate the government. if you are happy with life then you must be some closed minded boob. i've seen it with my own cousin. now i ain't saying that everything is perfect, but anything that they can grab onto that is against what has heppened these last few years is absolute truth
