Well if you want to discuss this like an adult, you an start with the points I made in my opening post which also explains why I did not read all it.
If you give me a Dr. Suess book and tell me it is a real life, true story. I will read it, but if I can show you it is fiction after reading the first few pages, you can not expect me to read the rest of it and treat it as non fiction.
You can whine and cry about respect all you want, but I did not disrespect you. I openly admitted and did not read the entire thing and I go on to explain why that is. So, would you care to address it or do you want to throw around more insults and cry about respect some more?

People saw CGI cartoon planes on video. Anyone who claims they saw a plane in person is lying. Like you did about your sister.
Fine, you can go on believing whatever you want.
Just don't be suprised when you hear a lot of laughter.
Please believe that there was no one in lower Manhattan, mid morning on week day in September in the vicinity of the World Trade Center.
Because that's is exactly what you are proposing.
"Believing" is something people do when they don't have facts to back them up. I go where the evidence leads me, whereas religious zealots and "truth movements" rely on faith and Orwellian Group-think.
Yes; nervous laughter from the willfully ignorant.
Your words, not mine. I have seen no evidence to support that statement, but again, you don't need evidence.
Your powers of deduction give me chills...no wait, that's just my skin crawling. I never proposed such a thing.
I picture you in the basement of Langley. Desk strewn with full ashtrays and empty Dr. Pepper cans and spent candy wrappers...taking your breaks holding up a picture of Janet Napolitano with one hand.
WASHINGTON — A New York congresswoman who represents Manhattan wants answers to why nearly 3,000 victims of the 9/11 terrorists attacks weren’t reported in the Social Security Administration’s official list of deceased Americans.

Before I can begin to respond, have you ever read about Operation Brownstone and Code Angel?
My take is this:
911 was not simply some terrorist attack, it was a huge coverup of institutional corruption within Big Media, Big Government, the Military Industrial Complex and Big Finance. It was an insurance fraud operation in addition to a bank heist and competition-elimination scam. Demolishing the asbestos-bombs known as the WTC was only part of the plan, and using the whole, scripted event as a pretext for global war was just the cherry on the cake.
The operation likely involved Pentagon Brass, USAF, the US Navy, NORAD, the Securities and Exchange Comission, the OEM, FEMA, NYC Mayor's office, FDNY and NYPD brass, the Federal Government, the Federal Reserve, select players in Big Finance, and the Office of Naval Intelligence, just to name a few.
So, tell me...what's your stance on 911? Are you a true believer in the government meme, or are you a truther who believes in planes; or somewhere in between?
1. How it is that you cleaned the stairwells of t least 1, maybe (2) 100 story buildings each day, yet when these building fell, there was 16 miles of missing staircases. Where did those 16 miles of staircases go Willie?
2. Where are the 16 miles of staircase that you cleaned on a daily basis Willy? They are totally and completely absent from the debris pile. "Where did those 16 miles of missing staircases go to Willy? And why aren't those 16 miles of missing staircases at the world trade center part of your international crusade?
3. How is it that performed at bare minimum 97 minutes of miracles in only 17 minutes? From 8:46 a, till 9:03 am, the world wants an answer Willie Rodriguez, Mr. Last man out of the world trade center with nice white teeth not stained from tetracycline.
4. Whats your relationship again to James Randi, MASS Illusions and magic?
5. Where is a single piece of footage of any of your alleged claims on 9/11? To being pulled from under the fire truck, to everything else? There isn't a single credible reason you can give why there is no footage of you being pulled from the fire truck. News wires and reporters at that time would have descended the scene like seagulls in a McDonalds parking lot.
First of all, Willy's story is verified by other people. Namely firefighters and people he helped get out of the building.
Some of these other people have not made a dime off telling their stories, so what would they have to gain by helping Willy keep a lie going?
Starting with the staircase.... how is it even remotely possible that he would know? Did Willy bring the towers down? Does he know what caused it to collapse? Does he know why the staircase was not found in the rubble?
Onto question 3...Why are his teeth not stained? Really?? I have seen a lot of footage and people covered in dust as they walked away from the WTC complex that day.... do ANY of them have stained teeth? Or is it that their teeth are white especially when the rest of them are covered in dust?
Question 4. So now this is a magic trick? Let me guess, no planes, no victims, and even the buildings did not exist? It was ALL one big magic trick and Willy forgot how to bring the buildings back? Sorry but this is just what I call nit picking. How does knowing a magician help Willy at all even if he is lying? Answer: It doesn't.
Question 5 is just stupid. Maybe there is no footage of him being pulled out from under the firetruck because all the reporters turned and ran the hell away from the buildings and the parked firetrucks when the buildings fell. Was Willy supposed to stay under that firetruck until the media came back just to be sure there was a picture or two?
I agree some people have some explaining to do, however, we ALL saw the people trapped in the towers waving from the windowsm and jumping to their deaths.
People died that day.
And I seriously hope no one in here is attempting to dispute the fact.
Now, whatever some corrupt government officials did with their names after the fact is not the fault of the victims or families.
Also, did they positively ID every body? To my knowledge, no they didn't.
How are people to know if someone faked their own death by having their family claim they died in the towers and are actually still around or some other crazy story along along those lines. I hate bringing up the possibility, but there is a chance some people could have attempted fraud. I don't know a lot about the government process concerning social security, and I don't know what they would do in a case like this. I'm just trying to throw out some possibilities that technically aren't impossible.
"Believing" is something people do when they don't have facts to back them up. I go where the evidence leads me, whereas religious zealots and "truth movements" rely on faith and Orwellian Group-think.
Well then why are you so alone? Is everyone else too stupid to see the "evidence" that you see?
You may be right. I think the laughter may have an anxious element to it, particularly when you start talking about "no planes". In fact it may be very nervous.
Try reading your own manifestos. That's exactly what is required.
Yes you did. In fact, that is core of your proposition. That no one saw the planes.
Its funny, I picture you in your basement too. Actually my cubicle is on the third floor, Department of Counterintelligence Threat Analysis.
You are wrong and even making this assumption really shows your lack of critical thinking skills.
Too many people saw the planes.
People who were not close to each others locations, people who did not know each other, people who have nothing to gain by lying, yet you want us to believe that they all conspired with one another to get their story straight?
Your assumption is even more ridiculous than your half baked TV fakery theory.
Yankee with all due respect.. YOU are the type of person in the truth movement that I simply can not stand.
YOU are the type of person in the truth movement who help to make a case for why all truth seekers are nut cases.
I have said this a million times, and apparently I am going to say it again. The goal of the 9/11 truth movement was always to push for an independent, complete investigation.
There are more than enough questions that can be asked in order to make a case for why such an investigation is needed that there is no need to continue to come up with theory after theory after theory. If you have a theory, then there is really no need for an investigation now is there?
You do know what "Orwellian Group-think" is, right?
I certainly don't think everyone is too stupid; too complacent perhaps.
I can tell you that most of the response to lines of inquiry like those I post are full of derision and ridicule, why would anyone want to subject themselves to reading information that could get them labeled "crazy". Its far easier to flip on the TV and let HBO wash over you like a salve.
I don't blame folks for avoiding the uncomfortable stuff, and I understand how labeling a theory "crazy" can make one feel better about being complacent.
Manifestos? Do tell, got an example?
You seem to be trying to build a straw man argument here, so let me nip this in the bud now. I have never claimed Manhattan was empty, only that with a lock on media, any witnesses claiming seeing other than a jet would easily be silenced. Please don't put words in my mouth.
Yeah, and by that you think I meant no one was there? See, you can tell a spook by his refusal to even consider there might not have been planes...lol...honestly.
You seriously can't imagine the media lied to you, so your only alternative is to imagine Manhattan was devoid of people?
Is it part of the standard operating procedure to protect the "planes" hoax at all cost, even if it requires fabricating a sister who "witnessed" one?
Or do you have some other reason for your dogged refusal to consider any alternative explanation, no matter how much evidence supports it?
"Orwellian" describes the situation, idea, or societal condition that George Orwell identified as being destructive to the welfare of a free society. It connotes an attitude and a policy of control by propaganda, surveillance, misinformation, denial of truth, and manipulation of the past, including the "unperson" — a person whose past existence is expunged from the public record and memory, practiced by modern repressive governments. Often, this includes the circumstances depicted in his novels, particularly Nineteen Eighty-Four.
Meanings
The adjective Orwellian refers to these behaviours of Mr. Farr and The Party, especially when the Party is the State:
Invasion of personal privacy, either directly physically or indirectly by surveillance.
State control of its citizens' daily life, as in a "Big Brother" society.
Official encouragement of policies contributing to the socio-economic disintegration of the family.
The adoration of state leaders and their Party.
The encouragement of "doublethink", whereby the population must learn to embrace inconsistent concepts without dissent, e.g. giving up liberty for freedom. Similar terms used, are "doublespeak", and "newspeak"
The revision of history in the favour of the State's interpretation of it.
A (generally) dystopian future.
The use of euphemism to describe an agency, program or other concept, especially when the name denotes the opposite of what is actually occurring. E.g. a department that wages war is called the "Ministry of Peace" or "Ministry of Defence"
Either way, it comes out the same - everyone is wrong and you are right. That's a tough one. Face it, you have no exclusive access to any information. You are working from the same observations, yet coming to a conclusion that is absolutely unique.
You keep throwing around words like "information". Its not the "information" portion that gets the crazy label, its the conclusions you draw from that information. Those conclusions are a product of your imagination.
Just look at your own posts and links.
Ok, thats not too crazy - the "media" has the ability to silence every person in lower Manhattan. That's the other side of the same coin.
Uh, yeah. The idea that there's some underground bunker filled with nefarious evildoers telling the "media" what to show and what not to show in the paper, magazines, TV, radio and on the internet is not rational.
"The Central Intelligence Agency owns everyone of any significance in the major media." --William Colby, former CIA Director, cited by Dave Mcgowan, Derailing Democracy
"We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false."
"You could get a journalist cheaper than a good call girl, for a couple hundred dollars a month." --CIA operative, discussing the availability and prices of journalists willing to peddle CIA propaganda and cover stories. Katherine the Great, by Deborah Davis
No, its SOP to promote the truth. One of the reasons is because of what my sister witnessed.
Considered and dismissed. Can't you accept that everyone that exposes themselves to your missile, media, and CGI fanatasies has the same reaction? They can't all be "in on it", Langely ain't that big.
Who? Names please. Most of the people who saw planes were media employees, yes the same media who have been owned by intelligence services since the fifties.
How many more lies would you like to share? I didn't think you had any more in you.
