    When 9/11 first happened, everyone dropped all their petty differences and remembered the most important thing; that we are all Americans. And for a brief moment, we were united as one people. We realized that we had been attacked by a common enemy and that even though we bicker a lot, we are still family. At the time, the only people who thought the attack was some kind of “inside job” were a few select tin foil hat wearing fringe extremists on the far left. Now ten years later, the “inside job” theory seems to be the predominant belief held by the left wing. So my question is how many liberals have managed to avoid this partisan hysteria that has spread like wild fire?

    It’s okay if you have questions about the official story. There are some things I’d like to hear further clarified too, to be perfectly honest with you. But there are so many ridiculous conspiracy theorists now who take one little thing they don’t quite understand and RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN with it to the extreme conclusion that obviously despite his utter incompetence with everything else including his inability to even speak proper English, George W. Bush was clearly ingenious enough to pull off the most egregious false flag attack in history against his own country. .......yeah, note the epic logic fail there.

    So who is left that is still thinking rationally and hasn’t been sucked up into the fanatical nonsense? I know there are some of you.

    You're way off base. 9/11 conspiracy theory isn't a left wing / right wing thing, it's a tin foil hat thing. What makes you think otherwise?

    Why isn't this thread in the conspiracy section where it obviously belongs?

    Can you substantiate this claim?

    The fact that so many Hollywood types are really big into it and that aside from from Alex Jones, I can't think of anyone else who calls himself a conservative who thinks 9/11 was an inside job. And Alex Jones is so nutty he still manages to make himself look like a lunatic in his own "documentaries."

    Just pay attention to what gets posted on this forum when the topic of 9/11 comes up. In fact, there's another thread right now on the first page of this very section promoting that idea.

    http://www.politicalforum.com/polit...234959-poll-bin-laden-he-connected-911-a.html

    But if that's truly not the majority opinion of the left today, then great. I would actually rather have you guys successfully refute my premise here. Because I'd like to believe that most people in America still have some sense.

    I am not a liberal and I always thought that 911 was an inside job.

    I was working for a UK defence think tank in 2000 when the Bush/Cheney crime family got into power.

    A lot of the academics, military staff and civil servants here were expecting some sort of false flag attack in the first year of their REIGN.

    We were not at all shocked that it happened.. only shocked at the scale and the sheer audacity of the crime family.

    I am pretty right wing if anything and fairly apolitical.

    Lay out your reasons for believing this nonsense, I'm sure it will not be difficult to refute.

    "You guys" nothing. But refutation is unnecessary... you need to back up your premise with something better than an online political forum poll with four (four!) whole votes claiming Bin Laden was an invented bogeyman. Your painting the Left with a broad brush based on that?

    Everyone coming together basically means that everyone forgets we're all Americans. Because Americans have always had a turbulent political process. It is not a good thing when Americans "stand together", because inevitably it means the death of political diversity and a culture of silence.

    No, we aren't, and should not be. This country would not be the United States, if we all weren't on the verge of ripping the country apart over our political differences. A healthy democratic processes involves intense tensions of that sort.

    Your misconceptions are to be expected; because you do not talk with actual people on the left-leaning side of politics. It's understandable that someone so isolated could not actually understand what people on the left actually believe.
