Don't think that conspiracies exist?
Just one word:
Watergate.
Good point. Look at what happened just for a simple burglary. It involved so few people but even with their best resources the powers that be couldn't sweep that under the carpet.
And again, look what happened to Bill Clinton, president of the USA. With all the powers at his disposal he couldn't even cover up a minor indiscretion with a woman and a cigar, an event which happened in the privacy of his own pants and in an enclosed and private office.
And yet people expect us to take seriously the possibility that something which would have to involve hundreds of people, all with the same perverted mind set came together at the same time to carry out what happened on Sept 11 ? And no one stuffed up?
And no one has had a change of mind since and blown the whole plot sky high???
(quote Ace Venture, pet detective,..) R R R R REALLY!
Why didn't the official explanation of 9/11 say anything about building 7?
The demise of building 7 was mentioned in passing but not examined in detail for the same reason that none of the aircraft were examined for defects prior to their destruction. The cause of the destruction was so apparent to all that it was pointless holding separate inquiries into each and every aspect.
The fact is, from the moment that towers 1 & 2 came down and took out a large part of the lower floors and structural support of building 7 it was seen as a high probability that it would fall. This became more certain as the day went on and the fires took over the building, further weakening the already overloaded remaining support columns.
There had already been a graphic example of how fire affected unprotected steel structures when the twin towers came down hours earlier. Building 7 was of the same design so you didn't need to be all that smart to see what was going to happen.
By 3pm it was obvious to all in charge that the building was not able to be saved and the only course of action was to make sure everyone was well clear. The building fell about 2 hours later.
It was an event well documented by tv coverage from a number of angles.
When it came down nobody said "What a surprise! Who would have thought that would happen. It looked solid as a rock right up to the last second! Must have been a demolition job."
It was exactly what everyone expected, including myself who watched most of it on live coverage.
And yet now crackpots are asking us to believe that it required demolition charges to be laid and the building was blown up.
Why wasn't it blown up earlier in the day?
What sort of fools would you have to enlist to be running around in a building which everyone is expecting to fall down, strategically placing explosives in amongst the blazing fires?
How could any sane person even contemplate the possibility?
Unfortunately the people that are most attracted to conspiracy theories are also the least convincing.
Sadly, that is not always the case, although when you get further down the chain it does tend to be.
If you look at some of the web sites that Hairy has directed us to for our further enlightenment, they are cleverly constructed and presented so that in the absence of any dissenting views or knowledge they sound quite plausible.
In view of the fact that the people who set up these sites certainly have the tools and ability to determine that the ideas they are publishing are in most cases gross distortions and in some cases, outright lies, you would have to question their motives.
I can only imagine that there must be money in it for them.
The reality is though, they are spreading a seething discontent amongst the gullible which sometimes boils over in irrational actions, such as blowing up government buildings with truckloads of explosives, or mass poisonings of the gullible twits who have blithley followed their ravings, or even flying planeloads of innocent people into tall buildings.
This is where that started isn't it? The guys that did the final dirtywork were reasonably smart well educated people who most said were nice guys. So much so that when their names were given, most who knew them thought there must be some mistake.
But they took onboard some distorted view of the world passed on to them by someone with a totally warped agenda and then took an action which in their view was going to be a step towards putting things right. ???
Now that is sad!
