The story of plausable and probable.
Son ask your mother if she will sleep with another man for a million dollars.
Depending on the answer. If she says yes.
It is plausable we are sitting on a million dollars but its more probable that we're living with a whore.

Yes Osama bin Ladin was Saudi Arabian but we were not going after Saudi Arabia we were going after the MAN.

Do you trust the government that much? Do you trust the government not to kill you if that's what it takes to maintain the illusion of peace and propserity they cherish in their country? The prosperity is already crumbling, you can see it every day. Wait until the illusion of peace is threatened. If that goes down, our country is screwed.
You think they won't kill a civilian to keep that from happening? They'll convince themselves it's for the good of everyone. As our beloved Spock once said:
"The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few ... or the one."
It's scary what we can convince ourselves to do. It's scary, the acts we might commit in the moment of greatest pressure, when we are convinced our deaths are upon us and we're desperate to forestall it. As it is said, in the moment of perceived death is the moment when our true character, the deepest part of our soul, is revealed for all to see.
In order to herd cows, you have to shock them. In order to control the people, you have to frighten them. You have to convince them that it's in their best interest to do exactly what you say. And if they think their precious lives and liberty are in danger, they will sell their souls to keep what they love.
Isn't that what we've done? We're coming perilously close to losing everything our forefathers held dear, because we threw ourselves into the government's hands after 9/11.
And you think the government wouldn't do it? The government knows everything I just told you. The government is well aware how easily it works. You think they won't do it? You think they haven't done it already? Dozens of times...over and over and over again. Guiding the people down a predetermined path using the right sort of shocks, the right sort of tragedies. Make them afraid of their own shadow and they will ASK you to imprison them. They will swallow the key themselves. Every great empire has done it. It works so very well, you see. But you won't believe it. You think our leaders are too good for that. You think they care what happens to a few thousand civilians in a country that's already overpopulated and getting a little too rowdy. There's far more political advantages to staging a terrorist attack, than there is to letting time take its course.
You think we're so safe from our own government? Here, we're helpless. The government does what it wants. And because of our powerful military, no one can save us. That's the problem with having the most savage and muscular guard dog. If it betrays you, you're finished.
And you think the government won't betray us if doing so suits its purposes? Think again.

I want to start a thread to analyze the difference between conspiracy and paranoia and I think you would be a good subject to start with. How about it?
As far as trusting the govt. I dont distrust them. I dont think of them the same way that you do.

But no high speed jetliner has hit a building of similiar construction, so there is no evidence.

Don't patronize me. Don't even think about patronizing me. It doesn't speak well for your character, and I don't react well to it either.
Why are you so convinced that the official story is true? How do you know you haven't been trained to accept death from Middle Eastern people? Trained to accept their violence and accept this as truth?
