9/11 conspiracy show recap...

Well, last night from 12-5am (CST) was probably some of the most entertaining hours of talk radio I have listened to since I started listening back in 1998 (yes I'm an addict). Before I go into detail I will do a quick background of the 4 participants there were last night. Some of this is courtesty of Coast to Coast AM click here to see what I am talking about.
Peter Lance and Mike Levine David Ray Griffin and Alex Jones were the participants.

Alex Jones, a documentary filmmaker and political researcher, pointed towards a "shadow" government above Pres. Bush as orchestrating the attacks. The hijackers, he suggested, were government trained operatives, who believed they were part of a drill on September 11th and not on a suicide mission. The planes themselves, he continued, were flown by remote control into the WTC towers. Jones created a special page to accompany the discussion, which includes a video clip from his latest work Martial Law 9-11. For Alex's sites click here and here.

Peter Lance countered that Jones' theories were preposterous, and that by blaming a "shadow government" the effectiveness of al Qaeda is underestimated. Lance does believe that the U.S. government was negligent in its failure to detect the plot, and criminally culpable in its subsequent cover up of the facts. To see Peter's site click here

Radio host Mike Levine said there is enough evidence to put people in front of a grand jury, to face charges related to the deceptions and ineptitudes perpetrated by governmental agencies. Specifically he cited a case where the FBI stopped Joe Weber, head of the Houston office of Homeland Security, from investigating al Qaeda fundraising efforts. Mike's site can be found here

David Ray Griffin, Professor Emeritus at Claremont, argued that there is much that is disprovable about the official story of 9-11, and that a number of the government's explanations over specific events have changed over time. He noted that the Bush administration has referred to 9-11 as an "opportunity," and that the attacks could have been organized by them as a way of subsequently securing funding for such programs as the trillion-dollar weaponization of space.

This was a very interesting argument and I wish you all could sit down and hear what I heard. George Noory, (and me) was most surprised by the fact that dispite all their different views that they all said SOMETHING WAS VERY WRONG WITH 9/11! Weather it be cover-up, incompetence, or full-blown responsibility. Mike Levine even said multiple times that it was a matter of WHEN not if nuclear bombs explode in our cities. And not just one, 5-6 at ONCE! That, everyone, kept me up most of the night.

I'd say 3 things about 9/11:
1) there was gov't incompetance, but that was the least of the 3 problems,
2) when in a robbery situation, you always strike immediately. We've been so pansified over the years that we've lost our will to fight. I'll bet you anything that if the terrorists tried that crap on the people who grew up through the 1930s, box cutters or no box cutters, the terrorists will be nothing but a bloody pulp within minutes. This is what happens when a society gets pansified as we have become,
3) George Washington said "beware foreign entanglements" just before he left office. Very few Presidents since then have listened and now we have the mess we do today. I'm not just blaming Bush because Clinton was just as guilty before Bush, and Bush Sr was just as guilty, so was Reagan, so was Carter, so was Nixon and so was LBJ. As for JFK, he did what he had to do. I probably would have nuked Cuba for threatening to aim nukes at us.

Are you suggesting that the US should keep it's head out of International affairs?

Impossible, I'd like to see it try.

For one thing, it's is short for it is. One of my pet peeves. Learn to speak the English language. It's a beautiful language, don't destroy it.

Paul - I couldn't tell you one way or another about the nukes. Russia has claimed that not all of theirs are accounted for. Is that something that the commentators have been saying? I don't know. I don't listen to talk radio nor have a t.v. (except to watch DVDs. we get zero channels from where we're at). I get my news from news.google.com and the Christian Science Monitor.
