I asked the question, didn't say it was always the case. There are other explanations. Drugs.

My mistake . I was traveling in the US when I first heard this story on a British News station. I switched the TV between all the major American news shows and not one mentioned it. The next day I couldn't find anything in the newspaper. I should have done a more thorough google search but nothing came up in mine.

He thinks Iraq is a disaster because he saw it/heard it/read it on the unbiased news.

I read it, you apparently didn't read what I wrote. Which is why I was very specific.

Quote:
All your questions would have been answered if you actually took time to read the links. As for any of them being compared to the National Enquire, it wouldn't be too hard for you or others to discredit them. If you can't back up your statement then run along.
If one story is discredited then they are discredited. The 9/11 story has been completely discredited.

Did you not read what I wrote? That would mean the FBI spokesman himself. Not some anonymous guy on the internet who claims to have some scoop that no one else on the planet does.
Please link me to an FBI spokesman who said this.

Did you not see post #80 where FBI Spokesman Rex Tomb said “The reason why 9/11 is not mentioned on Osama bin Laden’s Most Wanted page is because the FBI has no hard evidence connecting bin Laden to 9/11.” Tomb continued, “Bin Laden has not been formally charged in connection to 9/11.”

Did you see the quote tags. Nobody else said that, The FBI spokesman said that. Seriously. Are you trying to be dishonest or are you that incapable of reading text?

What 911 story? What are you talking about. I'm simply put in a link that states the FBI has no hard evidence that Osama is responsible for 911. It doesn't make any other 911 story true or untrue.

No, what I saw is some guy on the internet put it in quotes and claim a story no one else in the world had. There was no link to an interview proving he said it. But I didn't know it was in quotes! Wait, in a recent interview Tuatara said "I likes me a little man love in the morning!" Hey look! I used quotes! It must be true then!

Your websites contain the usual "the US was behind or allowed 9/11" bs.

When a news site quotes or cites something untrue they are liable for slander.
Quote:
In law, defamation (also called vilification, slander, and libel) is the communication of a statement that makes a false claim, expressively stated or implied to be factual, that may harm the reputation of an individual, business, product, group, government or nation. Most jurisdictions allow legal actions, civil and/or criminal, to deter various kinds of defamation and retaliate against groundless criticism. Related to defamation is public disclosure of private facts arises where one person reveals information which is not of public concern, and the release of which would offend a reasonable person. "Unlike libel or slander, truth is not a defense for invasion of privacy."
In the case of you putting something I supposedly say into quotes you would have to show where I said that. Since I am denying that I said that you have no proof that I said that. If this had been an official media site or my actual name was used then I could legally sue you for slander.

Liberal, neoconservative, it doesn't make a difference to me. The Media sucks on all levels.

The only great Media is the Internet and a few, very few anchors on television.

This link states that
Quote:
Brigham Young University physics professor, Steven E. Jones, concludes that the official explanation for the collapse of the World Trade Center (WTC) buildings is implausible according to laws of physics. Jones is calling for an independent, international scientific investigation “guided not by politicized notions and constraints but rather by observations and calculations.”
I know that many alternative theories have been labeled "conspiracy theory" and I would probably agree that this story does not need mainstream exposure .

This headline claims that Ellen Mariani, a 911 widow is suing the government because she and her lawyer say they have evidence that the Bush Administration knew of the impending attacks, not that they were behind it. Big difference.
