Now I am wondering if Americans are being influenced by other nations. Since the French, Netherlands, and other countries says it was a conspiracy, the events of 9/11 were a conspiracy?
Hmmm.... Are other nations injecting their beliefs on American citizens, and are they trying to create a wedge between its people and government (on this issue)?
I think I stumbled onto a new dynamic. It did not dawn on me to check where some of you are coming from. Was it not the French who first speculated on 9/11 being a possible conspiracy?
Huh... Now I understand what had happened. My fellow Americans have to wake up and take notice. Citizens from other nations are trying to create a wedge between you and some of your leaders and citizens.
Not only do I think 9/11 happened without it being a conspiracy, but I am now viewing the internet with a different set of eyes. Some (to possibly several) of you guys are being influenced by foreign citizens from other countries.
The Netherlands and Taiwan? What type of agenda do you guys have?
You guys need to be very-very cautious in what you read online.

Then I will show you the episode where the coyote builds an ACME jetpack and whizzles off into space to get an early jump on the approaching road runner
What I love about the official story goons......they have no regard for basic science or the universal laws of physics....whatsoever.
Speaking of no regard for basic science or the universal laws of physics, the buildings did not collapse at "freefall speed."
There is no evidence of demolition of the buildings in spite of many posted videoframes with highlights, circles, and cryptic colored lines.

I have to do some research. I am beginning to wonder if the 9/11 conspiracy theory has foreign origins, and the internet allowed it to grow into something bigger. I am also heading to the college library on Monday, so I can cross reference psychology books about the long term impact of the internet (on nations). Maybe I should check sociology books as well. I will have to research offline references. Hmm...

Pathos...an apt name.
People such as yourself worry me more than 100 Bin ladens. Its folks with a blind knee jerk mentality to anything that might cause you to pause that get people like Hitler, Ahamedinejhad, and Franco the jobs we remember them for.
You also attack a an idea that you are clearly ignorant of. Judging by your posts, you obviously have no clue about alot of what you attack, you attack out of sheer blind ignorance. That is not the mindset of an individual who is very conscious of the world beyond his own.
I did not suspect a conspiracy in 9/11 simply because I had nothing better to do, nor did it start by Youtube browsing or conspiracy site trolling. Youtube did not exist then. It really started from reading the own words and accounts of the very powers and entitites you so rabidly trust and defend, and starting to notice first inconsistancies, then blatant lies. In otherwords, I just watched and read the news. Conspiracy sites came a year later.
If you do not find the following, at the very least, worth of further investigation:
FBI ordering their field agents to stop tailing the 9/11 hijackers a few months before the attacks, even though the field agents were worried that the suspects were coming close to something big
Intelligence warnings from allies, with specifics even, which were at first denied by the Bush administration, then admitted. Even actor James Wood, a week before the attacks, watched said hijackers doing a dry run on the very flight that would hit WTC 1. he reported this to the authorities, yet nothing was noted or passed on.
Heavy involvement by the Pakistani intelligence agency, which has extremely strong ties to the CIA. This includes wire transfers of large amounts of money to the hijackers
Flight 77 hijack confirmed for almost 40 minutes after two planes hit the WTC, yet no interceptor jets scrambled, no evacuations in washington D.C. no alerts given, no measures taken
Large debris field from flight 93, plus passenger phone call, suggesting breakup in mid air and possible shoot down
Why five Israeli men with faked passports were arrested on 9/11, taking pictures and celebrating the death and destruction in the towers, yet quietly released and deported afterwords without incident or follow up
Why the 9/11 commission declared the weird increase in put options (bets that the price of a stock will go down, in effect) in United and American Airlines, to be "innocuous".
Why building 7 collapsed, even though it wasn't hit by a plane.
Why 2 trillion dollars in the Pentagon's coffers went unaccounted for not long before the attacks
Why the Air Force was tied up in an exercise simulating the very events that ended up happening
Why the Bush administration had many pages of information regarding the Saudis blacked out for the 9/11 commission.
...then, well, you would make the world's worst fraud/criminal investigator.
These are all facts and questions presented to us by the media and government themselves, not tinfoil-hat wearing geeks in basements. And these are right off the top of my head.

I do the very research you are talking about pathos, in fact one of my employers a Christian think tank funded by the late DR. Esty chair for the General Assemby of the Presbyterian Church in America commisioned a study on forums just like this one. I researched one on online gaming for several years, sexual predators also and one on telemarketing scams that was featured on 20/20 www.ftc.gov... back when the internet was just getting started.
Perhaps I can assist you. I even have the Business licenses of one of the defendants still in my posession as a memento of three years work.
I agree with you about the need for more research but it sounds like you are looking for reasons the internet has caused some kind of nation wide delusions where our judgement is suffering said delusions by the internet
