i live in nyc. i grew up 2 miles from the wtc. i would see the towers every day walking to the F train on East Broadway.
i became interested in the 9-11 truth movemant after watching "in plain sight" last year. it scared the crap out of me. but then i realized that there was a "pod" on plane on the cover of the damn video. that was it for "in plane sight" in my eyes.
then, i watched "loose change"...and i was thoroughly convinced. i told my parents, i told my friends, i told my co-workers, that 9-11 was an inside job and i have the evidence to prove it.
but then, i decided to just do a little research and i found the "guide to loose change".
http://www.loosechangeguide.com/LooseChangeGuide.htmlit debunked much of loose change in my eyes, and i wondered "how could i have been so easily convinced??". but since then ive mostly believed that it was indeed an inside job or "mihop"...but then i watched "screw loose change"...and it all came crashing down.
http://www.lolloosechange.co.nr/the thing we hear most from the 9-11 conspiracy movemant was that 9-11 was inflicted upon us, inorder to scare the american people into supporting various unamerican legislation and foreign policies.
but look at the theories of these people. there are conspiracies by the freemasons, the zionists, the federal reserve, the council on foreign relations, the project for a new american century,
the world bank, etc etc. we constantly see rumors about imminent false-flag terror attacks...yet nothing happens. and instead of saying "we were wrong" we hear "our exposing the enemy made them cancel the attack". does anyone see a problem here??
and when it comes to 9-11 itself...the conspiracy movemant uses all sorts of dishonest strategies to defend their views. they rely upon "experts" who have no proffessional experience in what they are talking about. if i had a nickle for every time they claim "that could have been planted", "she could be lyieng", "he could be an agent"..i would be a rich man. they show pictures from hundreds of feet away, covered in smoke and fire and ask "do you see the hole?". these are not the statemants of people honestly looking for the truth. instead, these are the statemants of people who have already made up their minds, are looking to cherry pick for info that may support their claims, and will find no limit in the ways they will disregard info that doesnt fit their picture. just like what the neo-cons did with iraq's wmds.
the facts is..that those who claim to be exposing the fear tactics and dishonesty of bush and the neo-cons...are themselves practising those same qualities. i urge you to look at prisonplanet.com, scholars for 9-11 truth, and all the other sites, and take a good look at how much space and time they devote to fear.
franklin delano roosevelt was right when he said our greatest enemy is fear itself. i urge you to really question those who use fear...to expose fear. i urge you to question the tactics and message of those who see agents, conspiracies, sinister plots, under every rock and behind every tree.
