Ok I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed,
So let me get this right,
We are at war with Iraq and Afghanistan because some guy called Osama Bin Laden woke up one morning and decided to fly 2 planes into the Twin Towers for no apparent reason,
Am I right so far ?
He runs some organisation called the Taliban and Al Qaeda who are such an organised terrorist group that they could not even manage to blow up a Jeep Cherokee with 6 Calor Gas Bottles at Glasgow Airport.
We are talking about the same highly advanced terrorist organisation here aren't we ?
So straight after 9/11 we invade Iraq because Saddam Hussain has something to do with this Osama guy ?
I am still on the ball here aren't I ?
Then Iraq may of had weapons of mass destruction but they didn't because England and the United States supplied Iraq with its weapons but we forgot to check the receipts.
Then the story goes on that he had to be removed because he had committed genecide in the early 1990's of around 200 Kurds so we have had to kill 1.3 million Iraqi civilians since this invasion.
Thats the worst Conspiracy Theory I have ever heard.
Anyone who believes that needs their head testing.

Where did they train? Practice? Plot? Make it all come out perfectly, with no rehearsals? Gee, the Hollywood and Theater companies of the World could sure use those sorts of talents, to shave production costs. Just write a script, cast the actors, put them in costume and start the play...or start filming, because there's no need to rehearse, fine tune, or clear up any rough edges in your plans, because it's so brilliant from the start.
Compared to the Muslim extremists who actually PLANNED for months, did dry runs, plotted, trained, practiced....for MONTHS!!! Still, didn't quite go as they'd hoped (fortunately). Bad enough though....

You know maybe if you stop looking for a boogeyman and believing an inept government attacked its own people. The website you gave is a bogus website with bogus numbers. Maybe if you "Truthers" grew up, you would realize this. In order for an attack of that magnitude to have been conducted but the U.S there would have been plenty of people involved. Eventually those people would talk no matter what EVERYONE TALKS.
2. There have been recreations on smaller scales that show/and prove that airplanes hit the buildings all three of them. Now I will admit, Flight 93 was shot down, the military didn’t want to risk and attack on anymore buildings.
While I do see there are plenty of discrepancies, I do not believe the goverment or any goverment beuracrat is comptent enough to comitt this attroicties.
EVERYONE TALKS... Stick your head into the clouds and keep bitching about it being an inside job, Instead of actually trying to fix this wounded nation before we go the way of ROME.
A Mossad surveillance team made quite a public spectacle of themselves on 9-11. The New York Times reported Thursday that a group of five men had set up video cameras aimed at the Twin Towers prior to the attack on Tuesday, and were seen congratulating one another afterwards. (1) Police received several calls from angry New Jersey residents claiming "middle-eastern" men with a white van were videotaping the disaster with shouts of joy and mockery

What are you talking about? who trained, who practiced? who ploted? that whole paragraph is so full of nonsense on its own because if you are talking about the conspiracy theory you are just assuming that they woke up that day and did what they did, and yet you are assuming that the "muslims" did trained for months but didn't quite go as they hoped.

Who owns that website? Is it reliable? These are questions any person who even attempts to through Information out as fact should attempt to check. One source isnt the end all tell all, and it doesnt make it gospel. Find some creditable information somehwere (not Wiki) that show over a million killed. Hell the Iraqi Goverment doesnt even put it at that.

Maybe I'm not that skilled at expressing myself on the word machine, here.
The hijackers trained. Overseas. Hand-to-hand combat technigues. Enough cockpit familiarization to achieve what they did. Frequent flights, to observe and case procedures, to look for oppurtunities.
Aiming a large airplane full of fuel isn't hard to do.
Not being able to control the ATC delay in Newark, THAT was the fortunate (for us) bit. AND, the hijackers were too stupid (or arrogant) to realize that the passengers (UA 93) might find out what was happening, because of the delay, and rise up to defend themselves. Contrarly to most 'hostage' situations of that sort.
I never said the hijackers' plan was "brilliant"!! Try putting words in someone else's mouth, please.

If everyone could receive a primer guide to the official story and how mucked up it has become, how many twists and turns and outright LIES there were, maybe they would turn away from the the bread and the circuses, tear the veil off their eyes and start scratching their heads.
Fantasy becomes reality when no one cares to look again. There's things to be done and fun to be had!

Okay, Al-Qaeda is a fictitious group of terrorists developed by the government. The government blew up the towers and blamed it on Osama so they can spread propaganda on "terrorism" and brainwash the public into fear. Thanks to the alleged "terrorist attacks," the government has passed such statutes such as "The Patriot Act," and institutions like "The Department of Homeland Security". Which has ultimately regulated Americans even further, and is an obstruction of privacy. Domestic terrorism is on the rise and you are the terrorists.
The reason we went over to Iraq isn't because of so-called WMD's. It is to establish military bases, to extend and centralize a governance in that area, and to continue the fear mongering from the media. The elite wants our currency to fail, they want the government to keep taking out loans from the Federal Reserve. Once our currency fails, they can influence the American people into a new currency and a North American Union. Not to mention the Corporatocracy and oil industry trying to extend profit margin.
Call me crazy, but I have the sneaking suspicion that the government flew drone planes into the twin towers. This was just like the false-flag terrorist attacks in 'Operation Northwoods'. I think we've all seen the absence of a plane hitting the pentagon, and heard how impossibly difficult it would be. One thing that slips me up on this though, there is no wreckage on united 93, then what happened to the people with the mourning family members? Is that a lie? If that is, then why a field in the middle of nowhere? Also, isn't it just perfect for the president to be at a kindergarten school, listening to children reading stories during the attack? Where else would he be portrayed as a benevolent leader?

Why are threads about the validity of the Iraq war still being made? Geez, just lets just move on already. Yes the CIA lied, the Military lied, Bush lied and Colin Powel was duped into lying, all in order to sell an invasion of Iraq to the American People, to the UN and to our European allies.
However, for the most part, its over and done with.
Iraq is finally gaining some stability, the two religious factions are getting along again, finally realizing that Al Qeda in Iraq was a more dangerous presence than the US Military and effectively kicking them out of the country.
Can the US claim victory here? Technically yes but the real victors are the people of Iraq, if the Sunni and Shia had not allied themselves with each other, the fighting and bombings would continue to this day.
For me, this issue is where it belongs, in the history books. It is time to see to more important issues now, the issues that are closer to home.
Seriously, with unemployment rates rising, banking failures, the housing bubble and everything else thats going on with our economy, dont you think its about time to quit whining about a Govt lying to its people to initiate a war?
Like thats never happened before and it will most definitely happen again, so next time it happens, try not to look so surprised.
So come on, lets focus more on what the Govt is doing domestically and less on its foreign policy.
Lets see some anger over privacy issues or about us modeling our surveillance system after the UK's, a country who is said to have more surveillance cameras per capita, in the world.
Privacy, un-employment, health care, the President creating new Czars out of this air...
These are just a few examples and all of them are far more important than the old news that is Iraq.
Can the US claim victory here? Technically yes but the real victors are the people of Iraq, if the Sunni and Shia had not allied themselves with each other, the fighting and bombings would continue to this day.
Wow, all that to side step around your `They never uncover anything`flaw.
