i am watching a programme on itv1 about the 9/11 attacks and it still sends shivers down my spine.

Be mistrustful. Be cynical. Be sceptical. This is all sensible. But logic and the laws of physics are on your side, you don't have to ignore them in your search for truth.

@Agent. I'm talking politician-speak. We don't go in for yes and no much. Wink

I think it's healthy to question the government, to be cynical but WRT to 9/11 anyone who does their own research, anyone who knows the facts surely has to come to the conclusion that terrorists were to blame.

I don't see how anyone could think otherwise tbh.

Like I said, it makes me really Angry

People need to rally for the real crimes, the real injustices that happen every day right in front of their faces, not rally behind some crack pot theory some arsehole put together for a college assignment that originally started as a fictional account.

They even say that no plane hit the pentagon, that it was a missile.

I guess those many eyewitness accounts and the remains of all passengers found in the wreckage don't count for much.

Ludicrous.

Well yes, that's why I've come to the conclusion the terrorists were to blame.

Sorry Electra, wasn't having a go at you.

My uncle was badly injured that day so it gets under my skin.

electra · 03/09/2011 22:48

I think it's understandable. I'm sorry your uncle was a victim too. I just think that the people who believe the conspiracy theories haven't read enough about it and probably also don't understand physics. I've heard the eye witness accounts of what happened inside the pentagon and that's enough for me.
