Yea. You would never fall for speculations and rumors. youre way too smart for that. Ih wait, I forgot about the Gen. Pershing thing. I guess you arent above being manipulated.
Never manipulated...just good and sound logical advice from men from the past who dealt with islamic terrorism...and some of the reasons why this country did not have to deal with "islamic surgents" for years to come. Even Democratic Senator Bob Graham agreed: [From Drogin, 2001] Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Bob Graham (D-Fla.) cited as an example a dinner he attended last week with people who work on intelligence issues and have connections to the intelligence community. The dinner conversation ranged in part on how U.S. military commander "Black Jack" Pershing used Islam's prohibition on pork to help crush an insurgency on the southern Philippine island of Mindanao after the Spanish-American War at the turn of the last century. In one instance, Graham explained in an interview, U.S. soldiers captured 12 Muslims. They killed six of them with "bullets dipped into the fat of pigs." After that, Graham said, the U.S. soldiers wrapped the Muslim rebels in funeral shrouds made of pigskin and "buried them face down so they could not see Mecca. Then they poured the entrails of the pigs over them. The other six were forced to watch. And that was the end of the insurrection on Mindanao," Graham noted. You have no idea who you are F'in with... This is simply one measure on HOW to deal with islamic terrorists that are captured. If you can deter these animals from going to "paradise" with 72 virgins, all of the better. But go ahead...tell us all that Dick Cheney planned and perpetrated 9/11/01.
Lets forget the Dick Chaney bit for a moment you are telling us that the United States Secret Service Orchestrated 9/11? Circumvented the Air force (Or were they all in on it as well?) and not a single person has broken ranks Care to tell us what the motivation for them to do this was?
Heck of a job if 9/11 conspiracists have their way... Let's see...You have a V.P. in office for less than 8 months in office and the "whack jobs" of the 9/11/01 want us to believe he was working the phones with the Secret Service and a number of government agenicies. I guess one of the first phone calls from the V.P.'s office was made to the CIA in early February: "Hi, this V.P. Cheney...I need you to arrange 4 hijackings in the early part of September...make it a Tuesday and you need to get 19 islamic radicals to fly on those days so we can blame it on...I said, this is V.P. Cheney...no, this is not a joke...this is the Vice President's office...yes, of the United States...(phone goes dead)...hello...hello...can you hear me?, HELLO!!...HELLO!!"
Someone would HAVE to come forward. David Ray Griffin, one of the leading scholars in the 9/11 truth movement, in response to this same notion that the theory put forth by the 9/11 truthers is just too grand a conspiracy to pull off, wrote this: "Another popular argument is that in any 'vast conspiracy…there's the likelihood that someone along the chain would squeal.' Even this administration - (defenders of the official story argue) - 'could never have acquiesced in so much human slaughter and kept it a secret. Especially when so many people would have to have been involved.' Although this argument may seem strong at first glance, it becomes less impressive under examination. "This argument is, for one thing, based partly on the belief that it is impossible for big government operations to be kept secret very long. However, the Manhattan Project to create an atomic bomb, which involved some 100,000 people, was kept secret for several years. Also, the United States provoked and participated in a civil war in Indonesia in 1957 that resulted in some 40,000 deaths, but this illegal war was kept secret from the American people until a book about it appeared in 1995. It also must be remembered that if the government has kept several other big operations hidden, we by definition do not know about them. We cannot claim to know, in any case, that the government could not keep a big and ugly operation secret for a long time. "A second reason to question this a prior objection is that the details of the 9/11 operation would have been known by only a few individuals in key planning positions. Also, they would have been people with a proven ability to keep their mouths shut. Everyone directly complicit in the operation, moreover, would be highly motivated to avoid public disgrace and the death penalty. The claim that one of these people would have come forward by now is irrational. "When people suggest that whistle blowers would have come forward, of course, they usually have in mind people who, without being complicit in the operation, came to know about it afterward, perhaps realizing that some order they had carried out played a part in the overall operation. Many such people could be kept silent merely by the order to do so, along with the knowledge that if they disobeyed the order, they would be sent to prison or at least lose their jobs. (see Kevin Ryan as an example of this) For people for whom that would be insufficient intimidation, there can be threats to their families. How many people who have expressed certainty about whistle blowers would, if they or their families or their jobs would be endangered by coming forward with inside information, do so? "In any case, the assumption that 'someone would have talked,' being simply an assumption, cannot provide a rational basis for refusing to look directly at the evidence."
OMG, you just referred to a member of the truther movement as a scholar. Hilarious, fell off my chair, for real. The argument is strong at first glance, upon closer inspection, and under a freaking microscope. Comparing the hideous conspiracy you propose that involved genocide on it's own people to that of a secret military war effort during WWII is despicable even for you. You then go on to allude that the United States was responsible for 40,000 deaths in Indonesia. That was a covert operation of the CIA to depose a government that was deemed a threat to the United States under the foreign policy adopted during the cold war. It involved very few American personnel and took place half way around the world when most Americans didn't even own a TV. How easy was that secret to keep. Are we to believe that the people who were complicit in the 9/11 conspiracy remain quiet simply because they don't understand all the details. Logic dictates that these people would be coming out of the woodwork to tell their story unless they had either an incentive not to (money) or were intimidated though threats of physical harm. There is no way the government could have accomplished either bribery or extermination on that grand of a scale. Even if these tactics could keep 99% of the people involved quiet, that still leaves thousands of talkers. Look at you for example, you never shut up and you want us to believe that all of these people have remained silent for over 8 years. Only one word can describe you: NAIVE
NTSB claims 700 knots for 175 is IMPOSSIBLE http://tvnewslies.org/tvnl/index.ph...11-speeds-reported-for-world-trade-center-att Either 175 was a modified plane that could fly above mach 1, or NTSB is blatently lying about the speed. The plane's best possible speed would be about 320 knots. The plane would have broken up before reaching those speeds. They are uncontrollable past 320 knots. Possibilities include a modified military jet, remote control very likely. Pilots cannot do what NTSB claims the hijackers did.
I am sure V.P. Cheney consulted with the Police officers who tried to frame O.J. Simpson. You remember, those were the cops outside of O. J.'s house in the early morning hours after his ex-wife was found brutually murdered talking among themselves planning the conspiracy: "Hey...we are going to get O.J., are you in? Pass the word." I wonder if some of the whacked out 9/11 "truthers" were part of that jury that freed a murderer...it was either that or a collected I.Q. among the entire jury no higher than a 1,000. In a criminal investigation, you have to prove a case "beyond all REASONABLE doubt." Note, it does not say ALL DOUBT. I know it is difficult for conspiracist people to understand how people can kill because of their religion, but this is nothing new in the world of Islam. - - Just like their founding terrorist/pedophile prophet - - As found 100's of times in their Koran - - Just like their 1,400 year history
Tom the Manhatten project was not a swell kept secret, the British goverment knew about it as did the Russians, so that is nobenchmark. because something was a secret from the American people dont make it a secret Tom, did you know that the CIA foiled a plot to remove Gadafhi from power and return King Idris to the throne?? now that never got much publicity in the USA but it is not a secret LOL You have not answerd my question though what was the motivation for the Secret service to do this? What did they gain from it?? If you had said that some faction within the CIA or the Millitery had something to do with it that I could accept as I can think up some good reasons why they would involve themselfs in such a act (I am Not saying they did just that they would have reason that would in there eye's validate the action) But the Secret Service gains nothing. If you know anything about inteligence agancies Tom then you will know that they do not do something for nothing And again I will remind you that I am not on 24/7 I dont even live in the same time zone as you Tom so cut out the sarcasm it is uncalled for I didn't think there was..
Shoot...when we first successfully detonated the A-Bomb (test) in July, 1945...Stalin knew about the results faster than President Truman. 9/11 conspiracists are simply "whacked" to suggest that some goverment agency was able to plant exposives in the WTC...along with Building 7 (ask yourself, why #7 too?), remotely fly empty jet aircraft into these buildings, stage a crash site in a Pennsylvania farm field, and all for what?? Never mind that 1,000's of people would have had to keep their mouth shut, but ask yourself, if the government had no issue killing 3,000 people to launch their conspiracy, why haven't they searched out and killed the "whack jobs" who are trying to prosecute them? You would think that the orginators of the 9/11 conspiracies should by all accounts be dead by now...considering the goverment had no issue killing 3,000 on 9/11/01, people like Tom would be "chump change".
Now you're policing sarcasm??? I guess we'd better close down 85% of the threads. You ask me to get inside heads of criminals and lay out their motives too? Let's ask Charles Manson what he had to gain. Who the hell knows for sure? I can speculate. $$$. Their lives. Their FAMILIES lives. If the mafia Don tells you to keep your mouth shut or your family, and their familes for the next 2 or 3 generations would be dead, you gonna run your mouth? I think not. Same type of thing. Besides, many whistle blowers have already turned up dead after they ran their mouths about 911. You could find that information very easily if you weren't so busy defending the criminals. The choice is take the money and keep your family or not. Not very difficult to understand, except for some I guess. The scholar and patriot, David Ray Griffin, would add the following on Bush and the Secret Service: Further evidence of advance knowledge is shown by the behavior of President Bush and his secret service agents during the photo-op at the school in Florida that morning. According to the official story, when Bush was first told that a plane had struck one of the Twin Towers, he dismissed the incident as merely a "horrible accident," which meant that they could go ahead with the photo-op. News of the second strike, however, would have indicated---assuming that the strikes were unexpected---that terrorists were using planes to attack high-value targets. And what could have been a higher-value target than the president of the United States? His location at the school had been highly publicized. The Secret Service agents should have feared, therefore, that a hijacked airliner might have been bearing down on the school at that very minute, ready to crash into it. It is standard procedure for the Secret Service to rush the president to a safe location when there is any sign that he may be in danger. (like they did Cheney) And yet these agents allowed the president to remain another half hour, even permitting him to deliver an address on television, thereby announcing to the world that he was still at the school. Would not this behavior be explainable only if the head of the Secret Service detail knew that the planned attacks did not include an attack on the president? The 9/11 Commission, of course, did not ask this question. It was content to report that "[t]he Secret Service told us they . . . did not think it imperative for [the president] to run out the door." Maintaining decorum, in other words, was more important than protecting the president's life. Can anyone seriously believe that highly trained Secret Service agents would act this way in a situation of genuine danger? The secret service would gain their lives and their families live for generations. That would be enough in my view.
LOL, this is almost too easy. Tom's qualifications to become a scholar are as follows. Become a minister and attend Northwest Christian College. Here is the top 5 majors of this prestigious learning institution of 500 students. Most Popular Areas of Study 1. Teacher Education (K-12) 2. Business Administration 3. Psychology 4. Exercise Science 5. Music Industry Griffin almost redeems himself by attending University of Oregon to get his masters, but, oh wait, it is in counseling. At this point he is well qualified to give catholic high school students advice on life decisions, but he decides to pursue higher education in the form of a PHD. He does so from another prestigious learning institution, Claremont Graduate University. And he accomplished this all at the young age of 31. Was he pacing himself or just wasting his life in Academia? After teaching at the University of Dayton for a few years he returned to Claremont and founded the center for process studies. I don't know what it is, but it doesn't sound impressive. Now Tom would like you to believe that this individual who never worked a day in his life and hid under the umbrella of Academia at second rate (being polite) education institutions is a scholar. At the same time, he wants you to believe that a man who graduated from Yale and eventually became President of the United States is the anti-christ. At this point Tom, your entire judgment of reality needs to be called into question. I did however find a few photos of your boy David Ray Griffin. The first one is a good shot of his face and the second is him on Halloween.
Are you kidding? I'd bet more than half the people in the dumbed down US don't even know what The Manhattan Project is! But ok. The Manhattan Project was no benchmark. It was never very secret and everyone knew all along. Whatever. 911 was a staged event, as was the Reichstag fire, the Gulf of Tonkin, Operation Northwoods,and the US-backed Iranian coup of 1953 are all interconnected false-flag terror events to name a few.
THIS IS AN OUTRIGHT LIE FOR WHICH YOU HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO PROOF! Statements such as this show your true character, a propaganda posting carnival employee.
