To the ignorant, the truth sounds like a conspiracy theory. For instance I heard someone on a local neocon "focus group" say that Ron Paul was being a "conspiracy theorist" for pointing out the fact that we overthrew the democratically elected government in Iran and installed the Shah. Sorry but I've lost patience with people in our own movement who want to attack our own movement. Even Judge Napalitano and Geraldo Rivera admit that WTC 7 is fishy. Alex Jones has dug deeper into the truth than some people are willing to go, but he documents his stuff. The only reason it sounds "nutty" is the average person hasn't done the research just like the caller who didn't realize we indeed did overthrow a democratically elected government in Iran.
Right, but 9/11? I mean, come on =/ To be honest, many people have -- I have. As a little kid, I was a little "9/11 Truther" too -- I was, like, what? 12, 13? I was literally brainwashed into believing that after watching that stupid video, Loose Change. I got older, I did my research, I read the 9/11 Commission Report (or at least some of it, lol) and I realized Loose Change was full of, well, you know what. It took different portions of different parts of the 9/11 Commission Report and the story of events in that day, put some of them in different orders to make their case look that much more valid, their facts were wrong... I researched all their facts -- they were all dead wrong. Putting 'rocks ontop of the grass to hide the fact that skid marks weren't evident on the grass'? They did that so that construction vehicles could get into the area, and not sink into the dirt -- that happens at all construction sites... all those facts, facts like those, they were just plain wrong. It was a bunch of "what if" questions. It was a joke. I remember living through 9/11 as a little kid. I remember our elementary school teacher coming in to tell us what happened. The ash of those towers reached all the way to my high school. For someone to claim that it was all a conspiracy -- that those towers actually imploded by explosives through our own government is just disgusting, and fact-less in my opinion. Our government allowing terrorists to attack us? I still vehemently disagree, but that sounds more believable than "our government planted explosives and blew up those towers as opposed to pissing off terrorists and letting them attack us first." And I don't mean that to offend you or anything, but I'm just saying =/ Could 9/11 have happened because Bush didn't take the intel he was given months prior seriously? Maybe -- there are reasonable facts to support that. If you're going to have any conspiracy, they should at least have it backed by facts... I mean, "EndGame?" I watched that as a kid. More than half of it was just some guy recording outside of the Bilderberg Conference -- no facts, just speculation. It was a joke.
Alex Jones and InfoWars represent the 9/11 Truthers. And quite honestly, I find that disgusting, and appalling. I find it appalling to those families who lost loved ones that day, and I find it appalling to Americans like me. And most importantly, I find it appalling to the youth who've probably been brainwashed into believing it without even getting a chance to understand the facts properly. I think Alex Jones is a terrible man, and I'm sorry if you or anyone else doesn't agree with that. His ideas sound nutty because they are. Like I said, I'm really sorry if I'm offending anyone here by saying this. This is just how I feel. I think Alex Jones needs to stay far, far away from Ron Paul.
