Debunking 9/11 Conspiracies
So I may be opinionated about a lot of things, but oftentimes I try to look at both sides of an issue, really, I do. So after having my mind blown by all these 9/11 conspiracy theories I decided it was a good idea to try and see the arguments against the theories, the debunking.
First of all, I would like to inform 9/11 conspiracy debunkers that it does not serve you to attack people who suggest the attacks were not as they seemed. You are allowed and encouraged to disprove these theories, that is how scientific research is done- you try to prove AND disprove something. So for a lot of “debunkers” out there, do a little research to prove some actual points- don’t just attack people who suggest something different than from what you believe. I watched some Penn & Teller video on YouTube and while I do not always refer to P&T for political and social commentary, the video is a good example of how a lot of people react to 9/11 Truth movies/ supporters.
So anyway, after sifting through the hateful and factless rants of people who believe the government’s explanation for the attacks, I found a couple of debunking sites, including one on the popular mechanics website. It wasn’t as interesting as a documentary with creepy music playing in the backgroud, but it did show other (more politically favorable) theories. Still unaddressed though… and I have to do some more hunting… but so far I have not seen anything about the cuts in the steel supports, the drills the military was apparently doing (staging the exact same scenario), Al-Qaeda being funded by the CIA, what pulverized all the concrete and building materials that made up the towers, 40 million going into the Clinton investigation versus 600 thousand going towards the WTC investigation, and I could go on.
It seems that the debunkers only go after the most extreme and unbelievable theories. I may think there is something fishy going on, but I don’t believe that the planes were actually missiles, that passengers on the plane were specific people the government wanted killed, that no Jewish people showed up to work that day, or that the planes never crashed at all. I am also not convinced of the “reasonable” explanation of building 7’s collapse, and I certainly do not buy the “pancake theory.” I’d like to see a move that really goes after disproving more of the points made in Zeitgeist (which I feel was a pretty fair and researched film). I’m sure there is information out there, and I’ll keep looking.
Whatever you think about 9/11, you should look at both sides. I don’t go along 100% with any one of the many conspiracy theory movies…. but there is SOMETHING suspicious going on. Something was weird about those attacks, and we are not seeing all the information. I don’t see anything unusual with being suspicious of our current government, they have made a lot of decisions that are questionable, been caught in blatant lies, and are ruling with and iron fist- what they say goes and they make it clear that they don’t really care what anyone else thinks. Whenever I catch the President “explaining” a controversial decision, I can’t help being reminded of my childhood- begging for sleepovers on Friday nights and when asking my mom why she said no, she responds “because.” I didn’t buy that explanation then and I don’t buy it now.
So I’ll keep looking for both sides of the argument… but I’ll admit that I lean towards secrecy in the administration, and certainly believe that there are things going on that people do not want us to know about.

You’re getting the wool pulled over your eyes
So I’m already teetering on the edge of permanent boredom, lonliness, and a choking feeling that something bad is going to happen…. probably a result of gloomy weather, low checking account balance, and no job- and pissiness about my husband getting to go to law school while I get to be an immigrant- and then I go and watch Zeitgeist: The Movie. I’m glad I did though… because I am no longer and unemployed immigrant… I am now an underground revolutionary.
Zeitgeist: The Movie, is probably the scariest of all 9/11 truth movies. And I have seen several, and don’t care what you think- 9/11 was caused by the government!! I’m not one of those people who laid on the couch watching CNN until October that year, I didn’t buy the commemorative quarter made out of 9/11 ashes, and I never really questioned the cause of the tragedy, I was in high school and had much more important things to worry about. But, after watching a few movies and doing a little research and THINKING, I have come to the conclusion that it is completely possible and obvious that 9/11 was staged by the government, and yes, they would do something that diabolical. They have done it before.
I’m not going to sit here and regurgitate someone else’s information, but I strongly encourage you to watch this movie.
It is not that long, and even if you are the most skeptical person in the world, the real evidence provided by this movie raises some alarming questions. The suggestions this movie makes are mind boggling and frightening, but what is even more frightening is that we are sheep who do nothing about it!
Even if you don’t believe a word of this movie, or one’s similar- like “Loose Change”- aren’t there things that our government is doing that don’t sit well with you? Isn’t it wrong that we have no rights since “Terrorism” and our Constitution is being ignored? Do you realize how much has been taken away and how much privacy individuals have lost? Do you see any similar actions that have taken place throughout history that led to genocide, poverty, slavery, communism, economic depression, and feudalism?
There are billions of people on this planet, and most of them are being oppressed in some way. There is no reason for this and the handful of people controlling it need to be questioned (at the very least) and we need to take back our basic human rights. If we start within our own countries (okay, I know I’m living in Canada right now but I am still American) and take back rights that are afforded to us by our Constitution, then we can gain the abilities to help people who are also disabled by ridiculous government bodies and brainwashers. Do not watch the E! Channel for Christ’s sake! Go read a book or write a letter or learn something or do something that could make your life more than wake, work, eat, sleep.
