Did you go to the website and look at the credentials of these "experts"?

A physicist, an economist, a professor of philosophy, a "conspiracist", and Wayne Madsen, who writes paranoid stuff for Daily Kos and prisonplanet.com. Madsen recently wrote an article stating that his "sources" in the Vatican told him that John Paul II thought George W. Bush might be the anti-Christ.

These people are much like the goofballs who thought a team of Arabs brought down the Murrah Building in Oklahoma City.

People of all stripes and education can be conspirazoids. They will not accept the "official" version of anything, no matter how well documented or researched, and no matter how many structural engineers say the same thing about how, for instance, a building can fall when a large aircraft filled with jet fuel damages the inner core.

Ignore these people. The last thing we need is to feed the nuttiness of somebody like Alex Jones.

I have read both sides of the story both the NIST report, the 9/11 Commission Report (and many other conspiracy theories that don't have enough facts). I do my own thinking.

I agree that Madsen is a left wingnut. He's not doing anything but trying to get in front of cameras. It's Jones' work that has "pulled my coat". The Theology/Philosophy professor, Ray Griffin, has some interesting and well reasoned work. I haven't looked into Fetzer yet.

Wayne Madsen

Wayne Madsen spent three days online insisting that President Bush's Thanksgiving trip to Iraq didn't happen when it actually DID happen, but involved waking all the soldiers up in the middle of the night to eat Thanksgiving dinner before breakfast, and then lying about it.

All because of an obvious (to normal people, anyway) typo in the Washington Post.
