I used to be involved in the political debates on this forum years ago when I actually posted. The problem is that when you have people on extreme sides the debate is useless. I just wish people saw that not everything is black and white. Alex Jones is here in Austin and I have a lot of friends who follow his rhetoric I tell them its piecemeal evidence that unless you see the whole picture which we obviously can't do because we don't have access we don't really know whats going on. I've read everything from Alperovitz, Chomsky to Jones. Some of it they make good points. However, they often leave half the evidence out of the picture to support their claims. When going through millions of pieces of information when evidence becomes declassified you can pretty much find somebody somewhere who said something to support your claim. For instance Alperovitz used the General (can't think of his name) who was head of the Manhattan project as someone who was against dropping the bomb because it wasn't necessary. However, Alperovitz leaves out the fact that the general had no knowledge of the Pacific war. I am not saying that this movie is wrong. I haven't seen it. I just find those who take extreme positions on either side tend to believe everything their mouthpieces say where in reality the truth is somewhere in the middle.
