This very thread is proof enough. You have taken statistics and suggested that they prove something that they do not.

I consider myself a sort of typical 911 "truther" meaning someone seeking the actual facts regarding that day. I do not claim to have the answers but I know enough to know the official story is a lie.

Since the earliest days of the 9/11 Truth Movement, the canard of the "official story" has been the house of cards the movement rests on.
It is a meaningless statement and one designed to hide the fact that the 9/11 Truth Movement cannot deal with the massive independent evidence of what happened on 9/11 that never originated with, nor ever was controlled by, the government. It is a convenient excuse, a propaganda term. And it is the reason the 9/11 Truth Movement has gotten exactly nowhere in the last seven years.
There are those who still hide behind the canard of the "official story" and are just admitting that they are just part of a politically motivated movement using the 9/11 attacks by bin Laden as an excuse. There are the rest who just accepted the statement at face value without ever thinking how meaningless it is.
Very sad.

While I can only speak for myself, I would take "official" to mean "official government" agencies and officials, such as FEMA (subcontracted with ASCE), NTSB, FBI, NIST, the White House Press Secretary(ies), DoD, POTUS & VPOTUS, NSC/Condoleeza Rice, Colin Powell, various Pentagon/military spokespersons, and the government appointed Kean-Hamilton 911 Commission (after Kissinger stepped down that is), etc.
I also tend to put the corporate-controlled mainstream media in there as well, as the "press corps" attended the White House briefings and DoD press conferences and transmitted the "official story" to the masses (via newsprint, magazines, Popular Mechanics, CNN, ABC, NBC, MSNBC, CBS, Fox News, etc.)
I think that those organizations and individuals collectively comprise a multi-billion dollar group of interests who pushed the "19 Arab hijackers" and "Saddam helped bin Ladin do it" myths upon the US (and world) public for months/years. Jthomas and associates can certainly choose to view it as "meaningless canard" and "house of cards," but I have noticed they tend to use certain emotionally-charged words repeatedly to describe complex geopolitical events.
I wonder why that might be.
Edit: "Independent-" now that could well be the funniest thing written on this entire thread. Thanks jthomas for the morning laugh.

I think these stats speak for themselves as to what the importance of 911 Truth is to the American people.

LoL! TOUCHE rhunter! Couldn't have said it better.
At this point I don't see too many other possibilities why jthomas and his minions are so blind to the obvious contradictions, science and facts proving beyond a doubt the OCT is a lie.
As important the NOC issue is, to me its only one of thousands of pieces to the puzzle that show a PATTERN and far more coincidences a reasonable person could possibly allow as dismissable (SIC)which is why I say common sense alone is all one needs to see the conspiracy/inside job.
So IMO the only logical conclusion is these OCT defenders are 1 of 3 things since it can't be that they haven't seen the evidence or done research:
1. deluded
2. in denial
3. part of the cover-up (as were media accomplises(SIC) and even LLOYD)
am i missing any other possiblity?(SIC)

of course the numbers are down...why?
its simple.
We (ones who seek the truth) have already seen all the evidence.
why do we need to keep going back to these sites when we have all
been there already?
there are millions and millions and probably billions that know in there
hearts that 911 was an inside job.

The MSM propaganda is that all "truthers" are insane. Therefore, I can see why there would be a drop in these sites.
I don't see what the economic crisis has to do with it?
Originally posted by Griff
You talked about the economic crisis. Well, maybe people don't have any time to visit these sites anymore as they are too busy looking for employment?
Originally posted by CameronFox
Ok, say you are correct. Then what are you doing about it? What have YOU done Maya? These "billions" of people don't seem to care one bit. I know that if I knew for a fact. (like a lot of you claim) that someone was guilty of murder, I would not sit in a CT site and fluff my feathers about it. I would do everything in my power to bring the guilty to justice.

Yes, contact an attorney at Attorney's For 911 Truth. Show them the evidence you have that will bring the REAL perps to justice. Maybe they will take your case.
Stanley Hilton's 9/11 Suit Dismissed, Appeal Pending
SueTheTerrorist.net | January 18 2005
The $7 billion federal class action lawsuit against top Bush Administration officials for, among other things, their roles in engineering and orchestrating the 911 attacks has been dismissed by Judge Illston. Attorney for the plaintiffs, Stanley Hilton is preparing an appeal to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals and hopes to reverse the judge's ruling.
Mr. Hilton will be making the fifteen page ruling dismissing the suit available to the public. As soon as SueTheTerrorists.Net webmaster, Abel Ashes (Hull Simmons) receives the document it will be online for all to read and understand the judge's given reasons for dismissing the suit.
Mr. Ashes spoke with Stanley Hilton earlier today and Mr. Hilton informed him that the judge's ruling was based on the "Doctrine of Sovereign Immunity". In other words, the suit was not dismissed because of lack of evidence, but rather because the judge reasoned that U.S. Citizens do not have the right to hold a sitting President accountable for anything, even if the charges include premeditated mass murder and premeditated acts of high treason. Mr. Hilton and his plaintiffs disagree and so are filing an appeal.
