The debate about 911 has been most interesting. It started off flame-like and contentious but this week's posts have turned it into a much more constructive debate. Its good to see a bit of passion. I am currently reading 'ALice in Wonderland and the World Trade Center Disaster' by David Icke. Very interesting as lots of it refers to the story we all heard trumpeted in the media (the amazing discovery of the passport in a New York street etc) with a very thorough trawl through the stuff they didn't tell us (like how come the most sophosticated surveillance centre in the world www.cheyennemountain.af.mil failed to track 4 rogue planes over some of the most protected areas of the USA).
my impression of Icke (he IS the former footballer, correct?) is that he's half thoughtful analysis of what's termed "conspiracy lore" and half "way out there" since his analysis seems to be pretty right on most of the time, I wonder how accurate he is about the "way out there" stuff! honestly, though, one doesn't even need a "way out there" attitude or view to see the holes in the "official" story of the event: for example, you mention the question "how come the most sophisticated surveillance centre in the world failed to track 4 rogue planes over some of the most protected areas of the USA?" common sense will tell you "simple. they COULDN'T. and they DIDN'T" another one that springs to mind is the wreckage of the plane that passengers forced down (although, the FBI has changed this story recently, claiming that the highjackers, under threat from passengers, crashed it themselves, as if that made any more sense) was strewn over 8 MILES - when, in history, has a plane crashed, and CONTINUED to crash, for 8 miles? again, common sense will tell you that a plane CAN NOT crash for 8 MILES or, take the "highjackers" - how could BBC report that at least half of them were alive after the event? common sense will tell you that the highjackers probably wouldn't use their own names when committing crimes, and that the names and faces trumpeted in the media aren't the real highjackers simple stuff really - as I said before, you don't even need to be an Icke to figure this stuff out you don't even need to be a "conspiracy theorist" you just need common sense
