I've waited 2 years for this! Is mainstream media catching on??
Edited on Thu Sep-11-03 02:24 PM by skypilot
Finally, one of my local papers is asking pointed 9/11 questions instead of repeating the "official story." I buy the Philadelphia Daily News almost every day and this is the first time that some of the questions usually asked by us "conspiracy theorists" have appeared in its pages. It seems to me that some of the things I've been reading on the internet are starting to make their way into mainstream new sources. Just last week, for the first time, The Village Voice made reference to Bush's "There's one terrible pilot" quote which until then I'd only read about in the Guardian and on different 9/11 websites. Now, this article in PDN appears. Could there be hope?

"So, why after 730 days do we know so little about what really happened that day?

No one knows where the alleged mastermind of the attack is, and none of his accomplices has been convicted of any crime. We're not even sure if the 19 people identified by the U.S. government as the suicide hijackers are really the right guys.

Who put deadly anthrax in the mail? Where were the jet fighters that were supposed to protect America's skies that morning? And what was the role of our supposed allies Saudi Arabia and Pakistan?

There are dozens of unanswered questions about the 2001 attacks, but we've narrowed them down to 20 - or 9 plus 11."

He's going to get tons of hate mail for asking these obvious questions so please send him at least a few notes of appreciation.

4. Imagine
If the headlines had been:

PLANE STRIKES WTC! THREE SHOT DOWN AFTER BEING HIJACKED!

It would have meant that America's defense forces were on the job and defending the skies that day. I'd feel much, much safer. How 'bout you?

6. Exactly!!!
Screw that tired old "The terrorists only have to be lucky ONCE" excuse.
Four fucking planes, two skyscrapers, and the Pentagon, they got "lucky" more than once.
