That alone is reason to disregard this man's opinion. If he quickly jumped to such a ridiculous conclusion only hours after the event, ruling out other possibilities, he wasn't looking for the full truth. Skimming through that article simply shows that a specific emergency protocol was not put in place. There are many reasons that may have happened, one of the least likely being a conspiracy (IMO). |
No, that alone is not reason to disregard his opinion. It isn't a ridiculous conclusion. People who disbelieve this and instead believe the official story, those are people who are in desperate need to believe something just so their fragile little "safe" world doesn't get shattered. 9/11 should not have happened. At the most, one tower should have been hit before any other plane deviating from its flight plan would have been shot down (Especially if they lost the ability to communicate with the pilots).
No, sorry to say, the official story is bullshit and it was an inside job.
period.

Why wouldn't you believe that your Government would allow thousands of people to die? They let hundreds of soilders die because of piss poor planning during invasions. They drop agent orange on the jungles of Vietnam which effects are still being felt to this day. They dropped atomic weapons on two cities and people are still getting birth defects and dying from cancer even now. During WWII they dropped phosphorus on civilian targets, horribly burning civilians alive. They allow corporations to pollute drinking water, as long as the parts per million are "low" enough...
So, why is it hard to believe your Government (or some people in your Government) would have moral qualms about the death of a few thousand people if it would further their agenda? It has already been shown to have little to no regard for human life.
