On election eve, 9/11 doubters surface

[Cowperson]

His conspiracy theory involves secret U.S. government operatives boarding the four hijacked planes, which he said were then secretly landed and replaced in the skies by remote-controlled drones that were then crashed into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a field in Pennsylvania, all to create a pretext for the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

And other theories . . . . .

Haven't read it yet.. but here's my question? What the hell did they do with all those passengers...

1) Send them on long cruises like those voted off Survivor early, so they don't spoil the ending..

2) Witness protection program, with a few $Million in the bank.

3) Sent to work camps in Ohio.

4) Committed to secrecy with the threat of making them lifetime Pittsburgh Pirate season ticket holders.

I love conspiracy theories, but sometimes have to question them..

You have to wonder how many of these people are mentally ill. If it wasn't 9/11 they'd be off on some other delusion like, I don't know, maybe David Hasselhof was "after" them.

How 'bout

5. Killed them

If they were willing to sacrifice all those people in the World Trade Centres, I don't think doing the same for the passengers in the planes would have really fazed them. Which of course begs the question "why use drones at all?" Unless their agents were so ridiculously valuable they couldn't be lost. I don't give these theories too much credence to begin with, personally. They don't make a lot of sense.

Normally this kind of thing would perk my interest, but with bin Laden directly claiming responsibility for the attacks in his latest video message, it's not even a moot point. And if there is some big conspiracy theory, I don't wanna hear about it. It will just stir the pot even more.

You know if the Pentagon and the other hits that so many people theorize about weren't actually bin-laden do you think he'd mention it?

Vide tape message..... and oh yeah, we didn't hit the pentago or that field.. haha people might go nuts!!

Maybe I'm just studying too much and my eyes are fried, but I can't comprehend your post. I don't know what you're getting at.

:unsure:

[Wookie]

Maybe I'm too hung over to make sense..

What I'm saying, is that if the Pentagon was hit with a US missile and the other plane was something else, the one that hit the ground (the ones people like to theorize about). Then you'd wonder why Bin Laden wouldn't have said something.

Like yeah we did it, but not that stuff...

The effect that, that might have would be interesting... So much that you'd think if it was true, he'd definitly do it.

Did i just make no sense again?

I'm really tired....

wookie, are you saying that Bin Laden would have been able to cause even more panic in the US by coming out and declaring that they were not responsible, thus making everyone panic and wonder if there was infact another threat? That's what I got from you post. If that's not what you meant, I have no idea.

[Faid1]

While I do think a plane crashed into the pentagon, it would make one hell of a bombshell before the election.

Of course, I think the government would end up releasing the tapes of the impact.

lol, yup, that's what I was getting at..


but not doing that originally, just saying later "oh btw, we didn't do those other ones, musta been sumthin else..."

Then people would wonder more... although you could just just blow it off as a mass murdering jihad'ist telling stories..

I love the best argument against it, the one the pentagon often uses (Tongue in cheek). 'There is no WAY they are that organized or capable..' lol.... harsh but funny. I mean, look at what leaks out of government agency's all the time, how could an operation this size stay hidden for so long? No way...
