Question: 1 Here is two questions: how many of you think that handful of corrupt military pilots using remote controled airplanes, loyal to Dick Cheney and a handful of corrupt officials in the Bush administration planed and carried out 911 also using demolitions expert in our military to blow up the WTC and covered it up by using the FBI to hide and lie about all the evidences.
How many of us?? Who is us??
I can only speak for myself as I told you already!! (That´s why I asked you if you are keeping count of pros and cons.)
I don´t believe it. (So that´s one NO.)
Also, based on the posts that I have read from other contributors, the sources that have been provided, and the opinions and "evidence" that you have provided, I have become more convinced that this is not a credible theory.
Question: 2 how many of you believe the OS is true and what “conclusive scientific evidences” that has convince you that the OS is true, and please post sources and links to back your claim.
Again, the way you phrase your question.
Again I can only answer for myself.
But I would say IMHO that the evidence in "favor" of the OS is overwhelming versus what I have read as conspiracy theories in favor of an "inside job".
I believe many people in Gov. and intel. have been secretive about things, have given false info. or inaccurate info. to cover their backs.
I believe that much of the intel. is still unknown because it is kept secret because of National Security policies.
And these last two points have served to fuel the countless conspiracy theories about a possible "inside job".
It appears more to be a case of negligence and arrogance (this can´t happen to us) kind of situation IMO.
An "inside job" not by a long stretch.
Too many variables, too many needed to be involved, so many things that would have come out in the clear by now.
So many things have been taken out of context, invented, and made up, just to fix them to the inside job theories, that sometimes it gets ridiculous.
Just a couple of examples to illustrate this point:
The amount of evidence of AA77 having crashed at the Pentagon. This keeps on being denied by "truthers".
And the latest "smoking gun" on the P4T site.
The closed flight deck door.
These two issues have been tossed around by the "truther" movement in total denyal of logic, physical factual evidence and technical information.
But they keep going strong. And I guess they will keep going.
First the USAF would have had to obtained 2 757's and 2 767's, they would have needed a project management team, a budget, a proposal, funding etc etc.
Then they would have had to have a team of personel qualified to service and fly that type of aircraft.
And they would have had to ensure the planes had the same wheels, tires and engines as the civilian aircraft that were supposed to have crashed
Then they would have had to painted them to look like American Airlines and United Airlines, with the correct buzz numbers of the aircraft they were meant to represent.
So the men and their management in the paintshop are now involved, also they would have had to order the correct type of paint etc, so now more funding and paperwork.
Then the remote control gear would have had to be sourced, modified, installed and tested. So more men and their management, plus funding and paperwork.
Already you have hundreds of people knowing about it.
Then the pilots would have had to be trained in flying the jets by remote control, so the jets would all have to made many test flights.
Now everyone at the airfield would know about it, including air traffic control etc.
Now the fun really starts. American Airlines Flight 11, American Airlines Flight 77, United Airlines Flight 175 and United Airlines Flight 93 somehow took off as normal, but then all landed
Flt 93 And Flt 175
Landed At Or Near
Cleveland On 911 --
Says Former Cleveland Mayor
Cincinnati WCPO TV Cover-Ups
Why Account Removed From Web Site
but then all landed where the 4 secret "air force" planes were, the passengers and crew were then somehow killed and strapped into the fake "air force" jets, they then took off under remote control and were flown into the WTC towers, the Pentagon and the ground.
Then the remote control gear somehow dissapeared, as nothing was found of it. A few hundred more people must have been involved, to quickly kill everyone on the civilian aircraft and move them to the other aircraft.
Then somehow the 4 civilian aircraft were "dissapeared, and also somehow the Air Force wrote off the 4 fake aircraft - and none of the thousands involved ever questioned any of this, or spoke out against it?
Then we have the demolition experts in another bra
[edit on 21-12-2009 by impressme]
Then we have the demolition experts in another branch of the military smuggling in tonnes of explosives etc into 3 buildings, installing them, and so we have dozens/hundreds more people knowing about it.
Also no one who worked there ever noticed the piles of explosives installed in their buildings, or the large team smuggling them in?
and you think this is what happened......
9/11 Conspiracies » 2.3 trillion dollars missing from the Pentagon budget!
9/11 Conspiracies » 2.3 trillion dollars missing from the Pentagon budget!
You said no opinions but you freely use false information, and hearsay? Why not tell the truth about the 2.3 trillion dollars, you certainly make up a lot of theories based on false assumptions, why not find some truth and tell the rest of the story? In the OP, you said don't bring opinions but your theory is purely opinion based fantasy supported with reference to false information. At least you can blame the source, but your theory is based on hearsay, saving you from being the false information source. Good strategy used extensively by DRG.
You weave a tall tale; why do you hate the USAF?

And it has been pointed out on ATS, ad nauseam, that it was not 2.3 trillion dollars in missing cash. It was 2.3 trillion in accounting reconciliations that auditors felt did not have enough paper records for. Only a newcomer to ATS would still think that the Pentagon piggy bank lost that much cash.
reconciliations that auditors felt did not have enough paper records for.
LOL Where do you get this stuff??

Who ever did it must be laughing there butts off listening to all the arguing between the believers and the truthers.
I agree with you on that.
Regardless, three buildings fell out of the sky in the same way , in the same place, on the same day. What are the odds? 400x400x400....
And the BBC report of wtc 7 before it happend?
Yeah Ok.
The OS believer do not want to discuses those issues because, it blows holes in their OS fairytale. Instead, it is so compfy to believe in a lie than to look at the evil truth starring them in the face.
[edit on 20-12-2009 by impressme]
Your 'fact' as you like to claim it, has NO basis in reality.
Not to mention...at the time, 2.3 trillion dollars would have represented the entire Federal budget times two. In other words, for your idea of this massive theft of 2.3 trillion dollars in cash to happen....the Federal Government would not have had ANY money for two years.
Pentagon Victims
Who was Killed in the 9/11/01 Attack on the Pentagon
An office of the Army that had just re-occupied the Pentagon's recently renovated Wedge One, named Resource Services Washington, lost 34 of its 45 employees. Most were civilian accountants, bookkeepers and budget analysts. 3 Defense Secretary Rumsfeld had announced on the eve of the attack that more than $2 trillion was missing from the Pentagon.
Missing Trillions
Rumsfeld Buries Admission of Missing 2+ Trillion Dollars in 9/10/01 Press Conference
On September 10, 2001, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld held a press conference to disclose that over $2,000,000,000,000 in Pentagon funds could not be accounted for. Rumsfeld stated: "According to some estimates we cannot track $2.3 trillion in transactions." According to a report by the Inspector General, the Pentagon cannot account for 25 percent of what it spends. 1 2
Such a disclosure normally might have sparked a huge scandal. However, the commencement of the attack on New York City and Washington in the morning would assure that the story remained buried. To the trillions already missing from the coffers, an obedient Congress terrorized by anthrax attacks would add billions more in appropriations to fight the "War on Terror."
The Comptroller of the Pentagon at the time of the attack was Dov Zakheim, who was appointed in May of 2001. Before becoming the Pentagon's money-manager, he was an executive at System Planning Corporation, a defense contractor specializing in electronic warfare technologies including remote-controlled aircraft systems. 3 4 Zakheim is a member of the Project for a New American Century and participated in the creation of its 2000 position paper Rebuilding America's Defenses which called for "a New Pearl Harbor." 5
Estimates of the sums of money missing vary wildly. A 2003 report put the amount missing at "more than a trillion dollars." 6
The War On Waste
Defense Department Cannot Account For 25% Of Funds — $2.3 Trillion
More money for the Pentagon, CBS News Correspondent Vince Gonzales reports, while its own auditors admit the military cannot account for 25 percent of what it spends.
"According to some estimates we cannot track $2.3 trillion in transactions," Rumsfeld admitted.
$2.3 trillion — that's $8,000 for every man, woman and child in America. To understand how the Pentagon can lose track of trillions, consider the case of one military accountant who tried to find out what happened to a mere $300 million.
"We know it's gone. But we don't know what they spent it on," said Jim Minnery, Defense Finance and Accounting Service.
Minnery, a former Marine turned whistle-blower, is risking his job by speaking out for the first time about the millions he noticed were missing from one defense agency's balance sheets. Minnery tried to follow the money trail, even crisscrossing the country looking for records.
"The director looked at me and said 'Why do you care about this stuff?' It took me aback, you know? My supervisor asking me why I care about doing a good job," said Minnery.
He was reassigned and says officials then covered up the problem by just writing it off.
"They have to cover it up," he said. "That's where the corruption comes in. They have to cover up the fact that they can't do the job."
The Pentagon's Inspector General "partially substantiated" several of Minnery's allegations but could not prove officials tried "to manipulate the financial statements."
Again, the way you phrase your question.
Again I can only answer for myself.
But I would say IMHO that the evidence in "favor" of the OS is overwhelming versus what I have read as conspiracy theories in favor of an "inside job".

There is no 2.3 trillion dollar missing, that is a lie and your sources are making up lies.
The accounting problem was known about long before Sept.11,2001. It was known about long before Bush was President. Those are facts. Your continued use of it to blame Cheney et al, is deception.
