I just found out about Nick Berg, the guy who got beheaded on video in iraq, and it's weird. He goes, gets detained by the military, he gets out and instead of getting on a plane he drives to Baghdad where is captured.

But it just so turns out he's friends with the 9/11 hijacker? Wtf guys

      My main problem with 9/11 conspiracies is that they seem to all contradict each other after a certain point. You’ve got people saying the hijackers were trained by the government and some people saying the plane was actually a drone and didn’t have anyone on it.

      Disinfo is a thing. For example, Judy Woods is considered a disinfo agent, she's the one that proposed that collapse of WTC 1 and 2 were a result of nukes, or something like that. There's definitive evidence that the US gov's official conspiracy theory (that's what it is by definition) can not be true. For example, NIST model of WTC 7 collapse omitted several factors for them to be able to show a collapse from office fires. There was an academic study from the University of Alaska Fairbanks that does a thorough review of it. https://ine.uaf.edu/wtc7

      The principal conclusion of our study is that fire did not cause the collapse of WTC 7 on 9/11, contrary to the conclusions of NIST and private engineering firms that studied the collapse. The secondary conclusion of our study is that the collapse of WTC 7 was a global failure involving the near-simultaneous failure of every column in the building.

      For people that take the Chomsky view of: so what, how does that change anything (pretty sus response btw). It just means the US is more evil than you could possibly imagine.

        Ahhhh I didn't realize that people were echoing Chomsky in that "so what would it change" response. Makes sense it's from his vein of intellectual cowardice.
