What Jesse failed to mention was that in war the US supplies the weapons to both sides in effect making a profit off the very war itself. Then once the war is finished the "booty", oil and lithium and poppy and general expoliatation of a people culture etc., is looted and the once rival country is sucked dry.

Problem is, my scenario doesn't include any "the gov't is out to murder us all" paranoia so you truthers dismiss it simply becuase it's not as sexy sounding to you as the other claims are. If Jesse Ventura came on TV and said the attack was due to some incompetent flight controller who suffered a nervous breakdown, you'd have changed the channel. You know that and so do I.

That aside. I think we disagree on one main point.
You think those buildings fell down because of fire and the damage caused by airlplanes. I believe they were controlled demolitions. I also believe any careful study leads to that conclusion. Thus my mystification by your opinion.

TOO many eyewitness' for 'no plane' theory...and the 'no plane' theory is becoming a distraction from the truth movement, giving undue ammunition to the 'debunkers'.edit on 16-10-2010 by jambatrumpet because: (no reason given)
I just find it amusing that despite the insistance of "blatantly a conspiracy" from thr truthers, they're all but getting into fistfights mong each other over what the "blatantly a conspiracy" even is. Was it controlled demolitions? Was it lasers from outer space? Was it the Jews? Was it a secret cult of Satan worshipping numerologists? Was the plane crach in Shanksville an actual plane crash, was it show down, or was it faked altogether? The truthers don't know becuase they're not basing their conspiracies upon any objective review of the facts. They're basing it upon their own individual angsts, so if person A thinks the gov't wants to murder us all then he's going to think the gov't stasged 9/11, and if person B thinks we're all the puppets of the Jewish World Order then they're going to think it was Mossad that staged 9/11. There are people out there living in such a detached state of reality that even the attacks were staged by shape shifting alien lizards makes perfect sense to them.
Now, I've seen Jesse Ventura's "Conspiracy Theory" show and I can see right away all the guy did is repeat all the material you peopel are, He doesnt' even try to come out and present an alterntive explanation and it's obvious why- he doesn't want to alienate any of the myriad factions within the 9/11 truther movement who just KNOW what the "blatantly a conspiracy" with his own scenario is so he keeps his statements as vague and featureless as possible. So where is there any schooling anyone over 9/11, exactly?
The fact of the matter is, the 9/11 truther movement doesn't really care what the sinister conspiracy is behind the events of 9/11...just as long as there is one.edit on 16-10-2010 by GoodOlDave because: (no reason given)

Your repeated posting of the same single bent piece of steel is not convincing....wordy fodder is not a substitute for facts. Three buildings collapsing into their own footprints because of fire for the first time in history. All on the same day. Ya. Okay...

Good Ole Dave wants us to believe that is was simply incompetence on the part of the U.S.
that allowed the WTC towers to be privatized and heavily insured (for terrorist attacks months before the attack) by Zionists it turns out that no one was paying any attention to,

What you seem to conveniently overlook is all the perfectly straight beams, right behind it. The cavemen were apparently smart enough to realize that once certain core columns were cut, the load would be too much for the rest. And they were even smart enough to get that right three times in a row on 9/11. WTC1, 2, and 7.

Ventura was kinda speechless when he said it wouldve been cheaper to just buy the lithium... which is probably true.
You people are demanding that I show why I don't consider these conspiracy claims credible and I'm showing it to you. This steel was blatantly subjected to massive physical force that bent it like a coat hanger, rather than from any explosive sabotage. In lieu of any suitable alternative explanation that explains how this steel got in this condition, I will accept the explanation that the unique design had an Achilles heel that noone fully understood was there and it triggered a chain reaction of structural failure. If THIS beam failed due to the overwhelming force crashing down upon it, it stands to reason they ALL could have failed due to the overwhelming force crashing down upon it because this type of beam was used throughout the structure

Ahem. This photo is of the same beam as before but it's the view from the other end.

This end wasn't destroyed by explosives either. This is the natural flush end of the column as it came from the steel mill where it broke at the connections. OTOH take a look at the column behind it. The flap with the rivets attached is bent, and you can see right away the beam it was riveted to was literally ripped away from it. Care to explain how your controlled demolitions did *that*?
You people are just making crap up off the top of your head as you go along. You know that and so do I.edit on 16-10-2010 by GoodOlDave because: (no reason given)

Wrong Dave, perhaps you feel your opinions outweigh science, who do you think you are fooling? Opinions, opinions, opinions Dave, that’s all you are showing us.
What does that one picture prove Dave? You only gave us a theory to why you think the steel bent. Do you have any proof to support your theory? I didn’t think so.
