Why did we fail on 9/11?

I'm very surprised that so many people out there still believe the official story. OK if the official story was correct:

1. Why did the insider trades prior to 9/11 happen and more importantly why didn't the government investigate them properly?

2. Why didn't UBL take credit (or anybody for that matter) for a long period of time after 9/11 (and only then did (supposedly) UBL take credit in a *highly* spurious "confession" tape) despite the fact that the deadliest terror attack in the history of mankind had just been executed?

3. Why weren't the black boxes at the WTC recovered despite the fact that black box recorders have survived FAR worse?

And the list goes on and on and on

I think it goes without saying that we don't have all of the answers. Now if we could only get everyone to agree on that point and make a serious commitment to finding the truth!

LOL spoon, you made your point quite succintly. We all know there are rats in the river of 911. Never forget the look on w's face interrupted reading 'the old grey goat.'

3. Why weren't the black boxes at the WTC recovered despite the fact that black box recorders have survived FAR worse?

And the list goes on and on and on

They were buried by millions of tons of masonry. They are tough but not totally indestructible. They may yet turn up.

The BB from AA#77 was recovered from The Pentagon, along with remains of the passengers & crew, because the quantity of building debris was not so great as at the WTC.

There are questions needing answers, like the collapse of the WTC (esp. WTC7), but not everything is evidence of a conspiracy.

The fact that they are so inept gives great cause to reduce their responsibilities, not increase them.

I love this. That IS what their excuse is isn't it? Incompetence. So, let's give these incompetent fools more power? Doesn't make sense at all. Thanks for pointing that out sp00n1.

We didn't fail, we got exactly what we wanted.

War, more security, a re-election, etc.

Politically speaking, 9/11 was a jackpot for our government (just not our people).

Yes, we did not fail. We did the same thing as Pearl Harbor.

Intel failure. Clinton and the rest of the DNC scumbags gutted the CIA and left us at the mercy of AQ. Traitors all of them.
