Chomsky's argument- a. Bush wanted to attack Iraq and needed an excuse b. 911 is a poor excuse since all the hijackers were Saudis, not Iraqis c. To plan and use 911 as an excuse means therefore that they are either lunatics or that they didn't do it. d. they are clearly not lunatics therefore they didn't do it.
But surely premise b is defective since "truthers" have shown a whole range of reasons for planning 911 other than invasion of Iraq e.g. curtailing americans' democratic freedoms
The NIST report, which is the official scientific analysis of building 7's collapse admits that building 7 fell at freefall speed for just over 2.25 seconds for which they offer no scientific explanation They only admitted this after pressure from "truthers" who scientifically timed the collapse of the building. They base their "scientific" analysis of the collapse on computer models the parameters of which they refuse to divulge for peer review.

Oh! Like you have to be a friggin genius to see building 7 fall and not know it was explosives? This idiot is a fucking lunatic and people are beyond stupid for listening to his drivel. Stupid old prick.

Yeah no one's beyond reproach. Discussing the fed is a bit out of my area of expertise (see all you truthers? It's ok to admit you're not knowledgeable on everything!) and this comment section isn't the place for it. Truthers do like to get in a flap about that too though, what with them being economics experts as well as being demolition, architectural, structural, physics, explosives, psychology, aerodynamics, political science and intelligence experts too.
Agree with you and Chomsky on this one TCB. Chomsky is not beyond reproach however, it seems he is out of touch when it comes to The Fed.

that's true, I still believe that the means to discriminate these sources lies totally within following the criteria of acadmia. As Chomsky says: "So many people suspect that Physicists, engineers, professional departments, universities are scared or intimidated by the power of the government. Confronting the government is not a risk, people risk more than that everyday. If someone has evidence to prove it was demolished, the path is straightforward to get it in open"
(on building 7 collapse.)
Oh, I am old and fergit things! Was it building 5 that had fuel tank and very few central columns? And I am talking about after the 2 main buildings sheared off some supports. "I am no expert" ! sorry

Chomsky, talking complete fucking shite. Take it to the scientific community... hahahaha Same Scientific community that's ran and funded by the cunts behind 911.

Never heard so much shit in my entire life.

I didn't say it was a grand conspiracy.

Err yes you did. Read your comments back.

Anyway, bed.

Nobody should care what anonymous internet posters believe, and your belief that people should only shows your lack of understanding.

Anyway I'm off to bed.

As I said before. Put your money where your mouth is if you think there's something fishy. Do a collaboration. If a small group of families can do it here millions of truthers can do it there.

Finally, if this was a conspiracy it will come out eventually as they always do.

I didn't claim that. You're not very smart, are you?

TheColossalBlanket · 596 weeks ago

Even if you don't. You're still making an extraordinary claim that WTC 7 was deliberately demolished as some sort of spooky cover thing.

Hahaha I love how people cry the word 'Straw Man' like it makes them sound more intelligent. What do you believe 911 was then?

If you have something put your money where your mouth is. Put your time and effort into it. Don't just pointlessly argue on YT or preach to the choir. Do something about it. Convince me and millions like me it was all a grand conspiracy.

Stop being a pussy and deleting comments.

No you're playing dumb. There is nothing to stop you carrying out a mass collaboration in both finance and labour. The fact is none of you have the balls to do it because you have fuck all. The reality is you like believing this is all a conspiracy because it makes the world more fun.

The UK government is no more forgiving than the US government. You're a freer and more open country than ours. Use that to your advantage.

Straw man. I didn't say 9/11 was an inside job.

It doesn't make it any less true, either.

The UK is not the USA. In the UK there was serious talk of prosecuting Blair for war crimes. No such talk in the USA.

We need a subpoena to compel witnesses to testify. You are playing dumb.

Repeating the same comment you wrote earlier doesn't make it any truer.
TheColossalBlanket's avatar

TheColossalBlanket · 596 weeks ago

I repeat.

How come the HIllsborough families in the UK managed it (look it up) but millions of truthers can't. Crowd fund it, there's millions of you you'll make that much money in no time.

You don't need to subpoena. Again, the Hillsborough familes didn't and that actually was a conspiracy. Why do you need subpoena?

It's a straw man? Hahaha demanding proof for an extraordinary claim is a straw man now? Fucking hell LMAO! You must've worked for a tobacco company in another life.
