Why not use an attack similar to the last one, which almost worked, but use two trucks this time? Why go through all the hassle of learning to fly, hijacking planes, flying way out of your way to escape radar coverage (which means learning where those ares are and navigating to them), play dosey-doe with a military plane, travel within miles of eachother, find a way to magically remain coordinated despite unscheduled take-off delays, fly planes into the twin towers when no building had ever collapsed to sue plane strike or fire, fly past the pentagon, perform a near-impossible turn, and strike the one side of the pentagon that had been newly reinforced and was empty of anyone important...? Why would AQ go through all the trouble of learning to overcome America's air defenses, infiltrate the military to learn when the training exercises would be taking place and control of NORAD would be in civilian hands for the only time in living memory, and carry out such an elaborate scheme when they experience with bombs and Timothy McVeigh already showed how effective a large truck bomb can be against a building? There are many ways they could have pulled these attacks off that would taken less people, less time, no infiltration of military intelligence channels... and still had the same effect- better even, since people would wonder whether any truck on the road could be a bomb and it'd be so much hard to combat such a threat that to control air travel.
Then again, why was NORAD training for this specific attack when Bush and other sin the government said repeatedly that nobody ever imagined any such threat? Why was the order given to stand down? Why do so many radar detections approach the planes before peeling off? Why was one plane still in the air after hitting the tower? And why did the government even have Operation Northwoods floating around as a possible justification for war in the first place?
How do you figure? You can rig a building with a dozen people or even one person. You just take longer with a smaller team. BTW, what was with all the renovations and closed floors in the weeks leading up to the attacks? Remotely-controlled planes have been around since the 80's, when it was made public that they were used to perform crash tests,
Except government evidence.
Yep, and it's been posted at least twice now. The data is all from government sources, including the evidence of a plane in the air after hitting the tower.
Like Galileo was listened to when he presented his evidence?
All this was inspired by the principle--which is quite true within itself--that in the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods. It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think that there may be some other explanation
If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State
