Sept 11 conspiracy theorist offers $130,000 to prove him wrong
A millionaire activist who believes the September 11 terrorist attacks in 2001 were and "inside job" is offering a $130,000 reward to anyone who can prove him wrong.

Jimmy Walter has spent more than $3.9 million promoting the conspiracy theory and is offering the reward to any engineering student who can prove the World Trade Centre buildings crashed the way the Government says they did.

"Of course, we expect no winners," Mr Walter, 57, heir to an $14.3 million fortune from his father's home-building business.

He accuses figures in government, the military and business of involvement in the September 11 attacks.

3. We'll smack something half-assed together over some egg-nogg.
Maybe we can "prove" that the buildings came down b/c of a laser-beam fired from the Irken Armada!

5. I'd still like to see proof...
that a plane hit the pentagon. The target and the timing were just a little too convenient. I remember reading about one guy that offered a $10,000 reward, and last I heard, he hadn't received any proof yet.

7. Did you ever read the Snopes lies about Michael Moore?
If you had, you'd never quote them again! The idiot that runs that site has a bad repuke agenda. He hates freedom. How about a reputable source? I haven't seen one yet, and I've looked hard for one. Even some of the firemen that were there were quoted as not believing it was a plane.

8. so the eyewittnesses are lying?
Edited on Thu Dec-16-04 11:01 AM by WoodrowFan
so all the eyewitnesses are lying?? even the DUers who saw it? And firemen say it wasn't a plane? Was that here or bizarro world??

Somehow I suspect no evidence will convince you anymore than all the evidence in the world will convince a creationist.

as for Snopes? RW? that explains how they debunk all the RW lie emails and get all that hate mail from wingers! must be a clever cover! "Hates freedom"?? :eyes:

bye bye
