I've done some thinking on 9/11...

I like a good conspiracy theory. I like thinking outside the box. I am all for standing up for what you believe in even when everyone else says it’s whacked. Just be able to back up you ideas.

Here are some of my thoughts on 9/11.

We don't know that the government lied, because there
are heaps of facts that say it didn't.

The man in the cave didn't call up on September 10th
and say, "I got an idea I want to try, sends some guys
to America and do this..." I would be inclined to believe he didn't
even have any knowledge of it before watching it on television. He
had money he made available. He put together an organization that has expanded. I
accept the idea that some guys, who weren't criminals
at the time and free to do whatever they want, were
able to get into America. I can also accept that it would have been possible for people
to steal control of several planes for
their own purposes. They weren't dog fighting the
Luftwaffe, they steered one large object to crash into
the largest object in their sky. I doubt it takes a lot
of skill to be able to fly like that. Most people who have read the manuals, gone through basic training and have ever played a
video game could probably handle that much.

There are strange things about the event, but that
doesn't necessarily mean there is a grand conspiracy.

I can accept that these people were psychos who were
brainwashed into doing this thing. I imagine there are
US soldiers in Iraq who think similarly. Dying for
their country/cause is acceptable and might even aspire to it.

People over here don't love their politicians. This
country was built on distrusting power and attacking
it when it becomes harmful. If there was proof that
our leaders are criminals and that proof was spoon fed
to us. We would turn on them. That is the problem.
Things are too complicated so people choose not to
engage them. Give people an in for the problem and
they will take it, but don't expect them to go
looking for the facts on their own. Not when the system
gives them enough to make them comfortable and happy. You don’t bite the hand that feeds you, especially when it feeds you such delicious treats.

You could take that stuff away from them. Take away
their comfort and scare them into looking at things
your way, but if you are pushing you message through fear,
doesn't that make you some sort of terrorist? People
need to be smart enough to think about the subject.
The "truth" is that whatever the facts show, most
people aren't intelligent enough to understand what the data means. They need someone to tell it to
them, someone like CNN and Fox News or any media source. When that
happens, it’s the side with the better resources
that gets to make the "truth."

Don't give me crap about facts. Give me a network to
educate people. You want to do something to change
things. Teach people and let them come to their own conclusions, don't preach to them.
