America loves to add syrupy music to things because Americans need it to tell them what they are 'supposed' to be feeling. Think of any yank talk show, talent quest etc. etc. every time someone says they are 'just back from Iraq'.. enter mawkish violin music.....Yuk!
Are you a 9/11 'truther' btw? I can't quite work out if you are or not.

That's interesting. No, I'm a person with a brain, trying to use it. When you see that it wasn't the official story, you then see how mass media and culture are used to create reality. This is liberating yet at the same time you see the grotesqueness of it all. It is a water which suits the upper echelons.

I've never found anything about the official story that doesn't fit. It's the 'truthers' who seem to have the conspiracy. Try finding an objective 'truther' website--there are none in existence. All I can say is that they were bloody shittily made buildings. I bet the Empire State building wouldn't have collapsed like that.

Good for you then. Your position is in line with the narrative, and as such, will be a smoother ride.

You haven't exactly presented a case. We could debate it if you want (I'm sure I would annihilate you :)) , but I have a much bigger concern about the mess the US is getting the planet into.

Debate, no, that's boring and pointless. Believe what you will, no problem.

I don't believe anything. I only look at the evidence. You do have evidence don't you?

No of course not the evidence is buried and destroyed under mountains of garbage.

In what way do you think the standard account differs from the truth?

In a way that kills a number of birds. In a way that positions you where you need to be in order to get the things done that need to be done. Make it work for you on many levels. The standard account has legs.

This thread's a bit pointless then, if you don't want to discuss it, and have no particular reason for believing whatever you believe.
