i'm watching the film, loose change. it's not that convincing. at this point they keep suggesting that the WTC was detonated. i hear that there are other, pretty bold and extensive claims coming up too.
i think, that it's important to note, that it would take quite a bit of explosives to bring the building down. second, witness claims about explosions and shaking, do not necessarily imply explosives at the base. third, don't listen to reporters on the scene, they are trying to fill up air time at a complex time. fourth, follow up explosions should have been expected, there is gas lines in the building.
finally, i think that the claim that our government planned this, and killed over 2k people, just to invade iraq, seems extraordinarily unbelievable.
i'm not sure exactly what psychological need this fulfills.
someone really needs to just address this stuff, and debunk it.
it's like JFK though, i imagine these claims will never go away.
maybe the psychological need is to have some sort of bad guy, that is really meaningful.
19 nobodies taking all those lives is so unsatisfactory emotionally.
but el Presidente, now that's a good story.
ok. here's an edit.
first...on 9/11/01 i lived in cleveland. i remember mayor white's speech. and the hubbub of the plane landing at hopkins, just about a mile from my house. this information given in the film, is completely inaccurate. this stuff just illustrates the problem with rapid fire news...bad information gets out, and it hovers around the internet for ever.
next, the discussion about free fall...the timing is inaccurate. first, their calculations of free fall are pretty close, in a vacuum. second, the debris away from the main collapse was falling faster than the building itself, which, tells the viewer that the building is not falling at free fall speeds.
that's obvious stuff, without any research.
further, i find it impossible to believe that the pennsylvania state police, and the many other agencies involved are all playing along. this falls under the list of rules i have in life...
1. everyone lies
2. everyone acts for their own self-interest
3. two people in government can keep a secret, if one of them is dead.
i can't believe i'm staying up all night for this...

I just realized you started a blog. Yeah I have read some pretty crazy theories about conspiracies of 9/11. They are ridiculous. Most conspiracies tend to ignore scientific method and assume things that fit their theory.
another fun one that karen and i were checking out was the AIDS being created by the US government to eliminate some populations (blacks, jews, hispanics, homos...). No one wants to believe that a virus may have just mutated. One theory believes it was bioengineered as early as the 40s.
And yeah, I do not believe the government could cover up things as big as 9/11 or AIDS...They couldn't keep the armies plan to invade Iraq secret.
hey, thanks for posting. i appreciate the feedback.
yeah, it's hard for that many people to keep a secret. someone will eventually realize that they have more to gain by talking than they do by keeping quiet, and the market tells you that someone is going to benefit if there is benefit to be had.
well, i'm going to go TA now.
everyone does lie and act out of self interest, don't they? (-_-')
