the prosecution:
Flight 93 Shootdown - Once kooky theory - now confirmed (again and again)
And NO I'm not fishing for stars or whatever. It's just this seems chock full of relevance to this 'theory' I got flamed over.
Bitter? Nah!

>> I'm not bitter. But to me, 9/11 is a life-lesson.
My opinion of the "inside job" was formed when I saw the video showing how quickly it fell. The twenty stories that disintegrated in mid-air. Then
the actions later of the Bush administration that stank of cover-up.
The lone-gunman MIGHT have shot FDR -- but who stole his brain later?
It was also, how strongly the "tin-foil-hat' and Conspiracy Theorist moniker came out. Look, if you want to say something that slanders an
individual and is completely made up -- it seems that these points are not made so much. The "Truther's" were just talking about THIS Conspiracy,
and the anti-truther's were tying it to ALL CONSPIRACIES. Someone would talk about Big Foot, or one theory might be proposed of laser-guided remote
controlled aircraft -- things we cannot know. But if ANYONE was speaking nonsense -- we all were.
I also learned that yes, people can get paid to lie to the public. We found out that a TV Anchor was paid $250,000 to tell everyone that Bush's "NO
Child Left Behind" education program in Texas was a complete flop. I remember everyone talking about it in the early days and saying what wonders it
did for Texas. Which turned out to be based upon a lie. It has failed to work as a national program as well -- but nobody is paid to give us the right
figures anymore.
So, you can be all alone in this world with what you think and your personal experience. Your brother can call you an idiot and refuse to talk about
it on purely emotional grounds. You can be ridiculed. You will not be promoted having the notion that our trade policies are bad. Following the status
quo will reward you, and get you more friends. You will be told not to believe your own lying eyes.
Sometimes, sometimes, you are right and everybody else is wrong. People are getting paid to destroy the truth, and without anything we can hold faith
in -- we are going to have our own theories on everything and not join together. It isn't that our administration thinks that we are believing the
propaganda they put forth (enough do), or that they care that my brother now thinks the elections are rigged. It's that they know they can lie to us
straight to our face, and confidently know that they can do it tomorrow. We are left feeling powerless, alone, and that nothing can be done -- because
the White House Press Secretary just told us Iraq does not want US troops to leave, and the press lets them.
Everybody knows we are constantly lied to -- but 9/11 is special. We can look back on the Lusitania and say; "well, that was then" -- but to accept
that 9/11 was an inside job is to accept that "everything you know is wrong." It was little Toto pulling back the curtain on the Great Wizard.
