On the eve of a Republican National Convention invoking 9/11 symbols, sound bytes and imagery, half (49.3%) of New York City residents and 41% of New York citizens overall say that some of our leaders "knew in advance that attacks were planned on or around September 11, 2001, and that they consciously failed to act," according to the poll conducted by Zogby International. The poll of New York residents was conducted from Tuesday August 24 through Thursday August 26, 2004. Overall results have a margin of sampling error of +/-3.5.

Let there be no doubt that the dumbest people in the world live in cities, the "intellectuals" in New York City who look down at flyover country are actually the most brainwashed, gullible people in the history of civilization.
Pray that you never reach the level of "sophistication" of Manhattanites or other city dwellers.
This kind of thinking got us Barack Hussein Obama, the video oat howobamagotelected.com fits in nicely with this and the Zogby poll that went with it.
We are at the mercy of greater and greater numbers of zombies who have no concept of reality. Generations of public schools, Marxist brainwashing institutions called "colleges" and the U.S. Pravda have brought us to this dangerous point in history.
Nice find. The DUmmies and DailyKooks keep up with the polls that say people think Saddam was behind 9-11, but somehow miss reporting this one.
I would imagine that half of New Yorkers would be shocked to learn that the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are not real.
This poll tells me that the problem of mental illness is much more widespread than I could have imagined.
And they vote for Obama, Hillary, and Spitzer. No surprise there.
Republicans need to get Giuliani to run for Hillary’s vacant seat and break up that mess.
Someone needs to pose the “Oh, Jeez, not this sh$t again!” graphic.

We are at the mercy of “half-baked intellectuals” who control the education of our children, our colleges, our “news”, movies, music, pop culture, etc.
How do we de-program people and introduce them to reality without one network that disputes the non-stop left wing propaganda of the Media Matrix?
I’m pretty sure many in the intelligence community did have facets of the knowledge of impending attacks. They just weren’t allowed to talk to each other thanks to Gorelick. Had they been allowed to communicate what they knew, they might have been able to put it all together.
At any given moment there are probably hundreds of threats... knowing about a potential “threat” isn’t the problem - knowing which one is REAL is the trick.
See post 3.
Possibly you are right. However, I think all manner of bizarre theories abound because people can no longer trust the veracity of traditional sources of information i.e. goverment officials and media “creatures.” There is a dearth of leadership; hence the people elected an outsider in desperation. When he fails, which he is bound to do, chaos will reign until Caesar comes.
“Half of New Yorkers Believe That U.S. Leaders Had Foreknowledge of Impending 9/11 Attacks...”
Half of New York Voters are Democrats and also mentally retarded.
> This poll tells me that the problem of mental illness is much more widespread than I could have imagined.
I have Depression, Dyscalculia and ADHD and I don’t believe that US leaders had foreknowledge of the 9/11 attacks.
And you’re right: mental illness is much more widespread than most people can imagine.
Some knew of the impending attacks, but they were DEMOCRATS.
They weren’t asked about vague attacks, they were asked about the attacks on 9/11 specifically and half of the city believed we “let” it happen, which implies that a lot of them think Bush and Cheney did it, a widely held opinion which you can see on left wing message boards and youtube, etc.
Just look at the shape New York is in and you can understand why such a stupid answer is given. And the Mayor’s leadership and the NY Times encourages such nonsense.
Please elaborate.
It is also interesting to note that exactly 49.3% of residents of New York City are blithering idiots. Coincidence?
Just like FDR had foreknowledge of the Pearl Harbor attack.
Ok, I can see that .....
