While at the theater I asked Dr. Reynolds about the "put options". He admitted that it wasn't just a rumor, but hadn't studied the issue in depth (he should). I advised him to read the recent paper published in "The Hidden History of 9-11-2001" by Prof. of Economics, Paul Zarembka, and the shields went up!
You see, Zarembka interprets Economics informed by Marxist theory... Reynolds was quick to note the difference between him, a "free market" economist and Zarembka, a "leftist".
Here are some of Zarembka's observations:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=125&topic_id=98777&mesg_id=99023Zarembka has made a thorough and devastating examination of the publicly available data regarding the put options and reached a harrowing conclusion;
"...indeed, there is evidence of insider trading before 9-11 on American Airlines and United Airlines."
- Zarembka, Paul. (2006) Initiation of the 9-11 Operation, With Evidence of Insider Trading Beforehand. In: P. Zarembka (Ed), The Hidden History of 9-11-2001. Research in Political Economy (Vol. 23). Amsterdam: Elsevier. pp. 49-50
The implications should be obvious. And the 9/11 Commission tells us that there is nothing to worry about.
Anyhow, my point is, questioning the events of 9/11 draws critics from all walks of political life, because the perps didn't give a fuck who was in those towers.
