How many of you feel like you are highly educated on our government? Do you feel like imperialism has dominated the inner-workings of our government and it is the interest of top corporations that reign supreme over the interests of the people nowadays? What are your feelings on the Wolfowitz Doctrine? I'm sorry for all the questions but recently I have devoted time to trying to uncover the other side of our war policies and it's startled me. I feel like our nation has been misled greatly by the inentions of our government. I saw in another post that someone said only 28 civilians were killed so far this year or something like that? Fallujah was a massacre!! Soldiers were told any person walking was an enemy target, and this is from the first hand testimony of a soldier himself. Don't take this as an anti-american rant because I love our country, yet I feel there are flaws within our country, mainly foreign policies. 9/11 was a pain inflicted by our own country! If you are offended by this I'm sorry, but all the facts point to this conclusion. What are your feelings on the government, and how did you reach these feelings?

well I hope I didn't scare away any potential debaters if this is a subject over your heads, or hopefully you debaters are just gathering up your ammo by doing research which I encourage, because this is not a subject to come mis-informed on.

To be honest whether you agree with the name of the site or not has little to do with what information if provides. If you want to cast aside legitimate information because you don't feel like the name is serious enough thats fine, but don't act ignorant about it. It is not selection bias, it presents evidence in favor of the conspiracy theory in a respectable and convincing manner. I'm sure you are one who would deny this up and down unless I brought a U.S. document stating government involvement. Well, unfortunately I can't do this so sites like the "less-credible" 9/11 busters and others must do. There are actually more sites but I just found that one interesting at the time. I understand that this is an explosive accustation to bring forth toward our government but I would never back something such as this if I didn't feel like it was accurate.



The "Loose Change" video has nothing to do with being a sheep. First, let me know if you've watched the whole thing. Second, all sources used are documented and factual. Third, there are many things in that video that raise severe questions about the whole situation. Why are so many of the alleged "hijackers" still alive? How is it that the 3rd building that fell was the 1st building in history to have collapsed due to "extreme heating due to fire"? Just because a video is garnering much-deserved attention does not mean anyone who agrees with it is a sheep, maybe it is because it has such compelling material.




to crackedrearview-

Trying to falsify my argument by mocking it is not a successful method. You haven't even presented anything in opposition to what I've said, just succeeding in posting a few paragraphs of nothing. I am not fond of conspiracy theories either because, well frankly, they are just that - theories. Yet in the case of 9/11 there is physical evidence that contradicts government stories. Hardly any of the material I am presenting is "trashy" as you put it, or even close to nonsense. Do your research. Come back with something to support your obnoxious rants with. Don't just come in here shooting down anything offered with nothing to bring to the argument itself.
