Default 911 "truther" moron defaces iconic painting that inspired the Statue of Liberty

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/wo...e-8487847.html

Quote:
Woman held after scrawling message in marker pen on work that inspired Les Misérables
Quote:
One of France’s most iconic paintings has been vandalised by a woman who scrawled a mysterious combination of letters and numbers related to 9/11 conspiracy theories across the canvas, before being tackled by security
Quote:
The woman wrote “AE911” on the bottom right-hand corner of the painting before she was challenged by a security guard and a visitor.
Quote:
The Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth claims, amongst other things, that the twin towers of the World Trade Centre in New York were demolished by explosives on 11 September 2001, and not hit by civilian airliners hijacked by Al Qa’ida terrorists. As evidence for their theory, the site points to the “rapid onset of collapse” to alleged “sounds of explosions at ground floor” and “foreknowledge of collapse” by the media and the New York police and fire departments
Luckily it was superficial and didn't damage the brush strokes. But who are these idiots? I like to know where these engineers and architects got their degrees

I think this will finally get the ptb to truthly look into what or who really lead the attacks! Good job, um, you.

In other news, "Truthly" is now a word!

Honestly, I somehow thought this would be about Tim Thomas... I know, I know - wrong political leaning, but still...

And I'm sure this entire clandestine operation was conducted by the New York Rangers in order to make it FoI relevant right?

I am amused by the audacity of posting something completely unrelated to hockey.

Ummm... Lady liberty is a symbol of freedom and democracy, and Bouw is now exercising his agency by jumping in the play.

Or Bob Hartley is french and is leading the charge towards new glory.

Either Mikey is a 28 year old chick

Or this was a CIA false flag operation to discredit the Architect and engineering truther movement.
