STILLWELL: The Truth About 9/11 Conspiracy Theories

Maybe some of them know the truth about the first bombing of the WTC in '93? Check out an old FR thread called "Batting a Thousand" that describes what really happened.

In buildings as big as the WTC I suspect it would take months to prepare it properly for demolition.

No doubt the families of the victims would be thrilled to hear that their relatives didn't really perish that day, but are being hidden in a CIA safe house somewhere.

I particularly like the bit in Penn & Teller's "Bulls#!t" where, after playing a tape of some crackpot solemnly stating this nonsense, Penn gives him a hearty "F@(& YOU!!" (did I mention that this video is NSFW?) and basically calls him out and DARES him to spew this garbage to the face of someone who lost a loved on on Flight 93.

(Thanks to the DUmmie FUnnies for referring me to this clip.)

They are the useful idiots of the left. The same people who believe that we went to war in Iraq for Halliburton and the earth is going to burn up because we eat hamburgers.

And, because it was decent, patriotic, white American men that accomplished it, of course we never really landed on the moon. And 400,000 NASA employees have been keeping the secret all these years. Not to mention our rivals in the space race, the Russians.

I suspect it would take months to prepare it properly for demolition.

Nah, these super-secret G-Men demolition experts work FAST! They're non-union.

[steve-b]

I see that the DUmmies have gotten around to denouncing Penn & Teller's attack on their beloved crackpots.

These conspiracy theorist were once pretty credible but over the yrs especially since 911...I've found them to pretty much have MUSH BRAINS. They're all a whole bunch of NUTS.

The web site 'whatreallyhappened'...that guy use to be a poster here at FR...he finally got banned due to all his nutty crapola.

"Must be some of the same loons who say Bush lied to get us into a war that would be for his political GAIN."


I thought it was that Bush lied to get us into a war that would be ultimately profitable for Big Oil!

LOL! Yeah, right!

[Blzbba]

"It is always amazing to me how many people really believe that 911 was staged. There are quite a lot of those where I work."


I know. It's like the "Vince Foster / Ron Brown was murdered!!" and "We didn't land on the moon!" moonbats.

911 Archives April 19, 2006 A CHALLANGE TO CINNIMON STILLWELL In her article dissing blogs that question the official story of 9-11 (see below), Ms. Stillwell obviously picked examples from the blogs that she found most easy to dismiss and ridicule. Equally obviously she stayed away from any facts that really do call into question the official story of 9-11. So here is an open and public challenge to Ms. Stillwell. We have all seen the video tape of the President just sitting in that classroom reading about goats after being told of the second plane impact. So, let's keep the following facts in mind. 1. There are supposedly an unknown number of hijacked planes flying over the country crashing into buildings. 2. Bush's presence at the school was announced in the media three days in advance. So the Hijackers knew where he was going to be. 3. There is an airport just 4 miles away from the school where Bush was sitting. So, Ms. Stillwell, since you seem to imagine you have a grasp on reality, please answer the following. How did the United States Secret Service Protective Detail, know they did not need to immediatly move the President? How did they know they did not need to toss him into his bomb-proof limo and start driving in any direction to foil a possible inbound? How did the United States Secret Service Protective Detail know that by leaving the President where he was, they were not making targets of all those students and teachers? How did the United States Secret Service Protective Detail KNOF FOR A FACT THAT PRESIDENT BUSH WAS NOT A TARGET THAT DAY? Feel free to write Ms. Stillwell and ask her those questions. - M. R. The Truth About 9/11 Conspiracy Theories Then again, I could be part of the conspiracy, too. Feel free to let Ms. Stillwell know what you think of her article In particular, please send her THIS LINK and THIS LINK and finally ask her if she is so interested in reporting on people who lie, then she should dig into THIS STORY - M. R.

LOL Now that you mention it I remember that guy. I seem to remember he was tragically struck by lightning. :p

A few years ago My wife and I visited a sci-fi convention in Atlanta. I think it was the first time in my life that I was ever exposed to truly insane people. Apart from folks dressed up as Klingon's and Boba fett wannabees the alien conspiracy theorists were amply represented. We attended one seminar this old guy conducted and all he talked about was the fact that this country had been invaded and conquered by aliens a long time ago and we were all slaves and didn't know it.Hell, He had so much of his so called proof that he had gathered over the Years that he almost had me convinced. The bottom line I guess is that people will believe what they want to believe.

For sure and no matter how how crazy they get, they will call you crazy for not being a 'believer' since they made it so simple for you to understand.
