9/11: Criminal Incompetence and Ass-Covering by the Bush Administration
14 Facts Which Show Criminal Negligence and Ass-Covering
On this eleventh anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks, we would like to take a look back at what went wrong.
While the Bush administration tried to make its response to 9/11 its crowning achievement, the truth is that they acted with criminal incompetence and ass-covering.
(1) The U.S. is at least partly responsible for creating Al Qaeda. For example, Jimmy Carter’s National Security Adviser admitted on CNN that we organized and supported Bin Laden and the other originators of “Al Qaeda” in the 1970s to fight the Soviets.
Professor of strategy at the Naval War College and former National Security Agency intelligence analyst and counterintelligence officer John R. Schindler documents, the U.S. supported Bin Laden and other Al Qaeda terrorists in Bosnia.
(2) The chair of the 9/11 Commission said that the attack was preventable. It is thoroughly-documented that an attack such as 9/11 was entirely foreseeable. Specifically, Al Qaeda flying planes into the World Trade Center and Pentagon was something which American military and intelligence services - and our allies - knew could happen.
(3) U.S. intelligence services have repeatedly infiltrated Al Qaeda and related groups, but then idiotically failed to stop them. For example - as the New York Times, CBS News and others reported - the FBI informant involved in the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center begged the FBI to substitute fake bomb power for real explosives, but his FBI handler moronically let real explosives be used.
Similarly - as reported by Newsweek, the New York Times and others - an FBI informant hosted and rented a room to 2 of the 9/11 hijackers while they were in the U.S., but then stupidly failed to stop them.
Indeed, former counter-terrorism boss Richard Clarke theorizes that top CIA brass tried to recruit the hijackers and turn them to our side, but were unsuccessful. And – when they realized had failed – they covered up their tracks so that the FBI would not investigate their illegal CIA activities , “malfeasance and misfeasance”, on U.S. soil.
In other words, our intelligence services' attempts to infiltrate and work with people inside of terrorist cells was horribly botched; and they did a horrible job of stopping terrorist attacks once they were set in motion.
(4) Dick Cheney was in charge of all of America's counter-terrorism exercises, activities and responses on 9/11. See this Department of State announcement and this CNN article. As such, at least part of the blame for failing to stop the attacks is on his shoulders.
(5) The Energy Task Force chaired by Dick Cheney prior to 9/11 collected maps of Iraqi oil, Saudi and United Arab Emerates fields and potential suitors for that oil. And you might have heard that the oil bigs attended the Task Force meetings.
According to the New Yorker – a secret document written by the National Security Council (NSC) on February 3, 2001 directed NSC staff to cooperate fully with the Energy Task Force as it considered the “melding” of two seemingly unrelated areas of policy:
“The review of operational policies towards rogue states,” such as Iraq, and “actions regarding the capture of new and existing oil and gas fields”.
It is difficult to brush off Cheney’s Energy Task Force’s examination of arab oil maps as a harmless comparison of American energy policy with known oil reserves because the NSC explicitly linked the Task Force, oil, and regime change.
The above-linked New Yorker article quotes a former senior director for Russian, Ukrainian, and Eurasian affairs at the NSC said:
If this little group was discussing geostrategic plans for oil, it puts the issue of war in the context of the captains of the oil industry sitting down with Cheney and laying grand, global plans.
See also this essay.
Is that why idiot Cheney - the guy in charge of all terror protection efforts before and on 9/11 - failed to effectively respond to 9/11 with normal air defense? Was he too busy pining over Iraqi oil maps to pay any attention?
(6) The military – under the idiot Vice President’s command that day – didn’t scramble enough fighter jets, and then scrambled jets far over the Atlantic Ocean, in what Senator Mark Dayton called:
The most gross incompetence and dereliction of responsibility and negligence that I’ve ever, under those extreme circumstances, witnessed in the public sector.
Cheney - and the other people in charge of anti-terror response that day - screwed up big time.
But just like the bank CEOs who are rewarded for causing the financial crisis by being given bailouts and subsidies and breaks, the military and intelligence officials who dropped the ball that day have been promoted. As Time reported:
They have basically promoted the exact same people who have presided over the ... failure," says a former Justice Department official, "and those individuals took the same thinking with them.
As the Washington Post reported, no one from the CIA, FBI or NSA has been reprimanded, punished, or fired for the events of 9/11.
The same is true for the military personnel on watch that day. For example, General Myers, who was Acting Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff on September 11th, was quickly confirmed as Chairman two weeks later. General Ralph Eberhart, Commander in Chief of NORAD at the time of the attack, was promoted to head the new "Northern Command" a year after the attack.
Just as with the financial crisis, no one has been punished, and the people who screwed up have been allowed to fail upwards.
(7) On the day of 9/11, Vice President Dick Cheney initiated Continuity of Government Plans that ended America’s constitutional form of government (at least for some undetermined period of time.)
On that same day, a national state of emergency was declared … and that state of emergency has continuously been in effect up to today. ... even though U.S. military and intelligence officials say that the threat from Al Qaeda is now almost entirely non-existent.
(8) Many of the draconian "national security programs" - such as the Patriot Act, spying on Americans and indefinite detention - overtly approved after 9/11 had actually been implemented or planned before 9/11. September 11th was used as an excuse to ramp up these programs.
These programs were approved during the Bush administration ... but were never terminated by the Obama administration. In fact, while Obama is a nicer and smarter guy than Bush, top constitutional law professors say that Obama has actually expanded these programs. And top national security experts say that these programs actually harm our national security and increase the threat from terrorism. See this and this.
(9) The Bush administration immediately used the 9/11 attacks as an excuse to carry out decades-old neoconservative plans to implement regime change throughout the Middle East and North Africa. And see this,
(10) The Bush administration pretended that Saddam Hussein had a hand in 9/11 ... one of the two main justifications for that war.
(11) Allegedly, Saddam offered to leave Iraq - and the Taliban offered to turn over Bin Laden - in order to prevent U.S. invasion. But the U.S. turned down the offers and invaded anyway.
We can't get the bad guys using peaceful means, now can we? We have a war to fight!
(12) In contrast, other governments that might actually have sponsored the attacks have been let off scot-free ... and have even been given huge amounts of financial support.
(13) As the 9/11 Commission itself notes, as part of its ass-covering efforts, the Bush administration engaged in criminal obstruction of justice.
There are numerous examples of obstruction of justice into the 9/11 investigation, including:
- The chairs of both the 9/11 Commission and the Official Congressional Inquiry into 9/11 said that Soviet-style government “minders” obstructed the investigation into 9/11 by intimidating witnesses
- The 9/11 Commissioners concluded that officials from the Pentagon lied to the Commission, and considered recommending criminal charges for such false statements
- The tape of interviews of air traffic controllers on-duty on 9/11 was intentionally destroyed by crushing the cassette by hand, cutting the tape into little pieces, and then dropping the pieces in different trash cans around the building as shown by this NY Times article (summary version is free; full version is pay-per-view) and by this article from the Chicago Sun-Times
- As reported by ACLU, FireDogLake, RawStory and many others, declassified documents shows that Senior Bush administration officials sternly cautioned the 9/11 Commission against probing too deeply into the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001
9/11 Commission co-chairs Thomas Keane and Lee Hamilton wrote:
Those who knew about those videotapes — and did not tell us about them — obstructed our investigation.
This is particularly disturbing because the torture methods used were specially-targeted at producing false confessions. And according to NBC News:
- Much of the 9/11 Commission Report was based upon the testimony of people who were tortured
- At least four of the people whose interrogation figured in the 9/11 Commission Report have claimed that they told interrogators information as a way to stop being "tortured."
- One of the Commission's main sources of information was tortured until he agreed to sign a confession that he was NOT EVEN ALLOWED TO READ
- The 9/11 Commission itself doubted the accuracy of the torture confessions, and yet kept their doubts to themselves
The 9/11 Commissioners publicly expressed anger at certain cover ups and obstructions of justice:
- The Commission’s co-chairs said that the CIA (and likely the White House) “obstructed our investigation”
- 9/11 Commissioner Bob Kerrey said that “There are ample reasons to suspect that there may be some alternative to what we outlined in our version . . . We didn’t have access . . . .”
- 9/11 Commissioner Timothy Roemer said “We were extremely frustrated with the false statements we were getting”
- 9/11 Commissioner Max Cleland resigned from the Commission, stating: “It is a national scandal”; “This investigation is now compromised”; and “One of these days we will have to get the full story because the 9-11 issue is so important to America. But this White House wants to cover it up”
- The Senior Counsel to the 9/11 Commission (John Farmer) – who led the 9/11 staff’s inquiry – said “At some level of the government, at some point in time…there was an agreement not to tell the truth about what happened“. He also said “I was shocked at how different the truth was from the way it was described …. The tapes told a radically different story from what had been told to us and the public for two years…. This is not spin. This is not true.”
And the Co-Chair of the official Congressional Inquiry Into 9/11 – and former head of the Senate Intelligence Committee – has called for a new 9/11 investigation.
(14) The American government - like many other governments - has long spun accidents and intelligence failures as justifications for war propaganda. Unscrupulous Americans - just like dishonest people all over the world - have long used deception as a basis for war.
Whatever the details of the screw-ups on 9/11, the Bush administration used the attacks as a justification to promote their agenda. And - instead of changing the agenda - Obama has continued it.

I don't know what you're going on about, pal. *Every single time* I'm grilling steaks in the backyard and some asshole wants his well-done, the fucking grill free-fall collapses into its own footprint leaving just a puddle of molten steel and some passports. So the lesson IS....why would you ruin a perfectly good steak (and grill) by cooking it too damn long?
911 is an inside job
...and if you think killing Americans knowingly in 93 was just an FBI mistake, shoot yourself in the head.
You can't make people see truth who rely on faith and other people's opinions to develop their beliefs. You must teach them to differentiate facts and opinion and use their own intuition. Unfortunately, most people just want to be told what to think. That means YOU people who down voted. The facts are incredibly clear here. 9/11 was indeed an inside job.
Twice..
"the first casualty of war is the truth." i fail to see how bringing up the subject of the 9/11 attacks moves the ball forward on anything. Perhaps discussing the friggin' war that came about as a consequence GEORGE WASHINGTON????!!!! Ridiculous. We already have the Kellog/Briand Pact GW! Why don't we have a discussion of that as well! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kellogg%E2%80%93Briand_Pact. Look...Afghanistan was a singatory! THE WAR IS ILLEGAL! THE WAR IS ILLEGAL! I mean let's get real and start talking about precisely how this war is prosecuted and whether or not it's in the national interest...especially given that...well...SOMETHING bankrupted the entire country in 2008. That sounds to me a little more important than this hooey...
Why not let it go? Is that what you are suggesting. That we put 9-11 in the past, accept that it will never be solved?
It has been solved. The only issue now is the media is distorting the truth.
And if you think this will never happen again, you have another thing coming.
I watched a video clip of the aftermath. I saw a woman standing in the gaping hole of the first tower struck. She stood there, 1/4 of a mile up, leaning against the remainder of what was her office and that wsa the moment I said to myself. I will go to my grave ~screaming~ the truth for one reason, one reason only. This woman.
Oh yes, wag the dog is coming again and again. Some of us may forget about 9-11 because of a new event but that is all. Until there isn't a heartbeat left on earth will it stop because the people who did this are criminally insane.
Well if it was Bush then it was our government. Both teams play for the same sponsors, so don't be so naive to believe that all the planning was unknown to the previous administration and that this administration isn't covering it all up making them just as culpable. If our government did it....
Jeb says it's time top stop blaming his brother W for everything..... this is all water under the bridbge, time to move on, nothing to see here, why cry over spilt milk.... add your own
waaaahhhhh...leave little Georgie II alone. lol!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSw95WmS7Gs
btw I don't buy the incompetence excuse either. Everyone acted their part that day in following the plan. With both inside and outside help.
edit: because of something called compartmentalization there were probably lower levels of those who didn't even know what their part of the plan entailed. For instance those involved in drills/exercises such as 'Northern Vigilance' 'Vigilant Guardian' 'Red Flag'(training) 'Special Routing Arrangement Service (SRAS)' 'Tripod' etc., etc..
Amen, pass the sauce.
I've said it before...I'll say it again.....
POLYGRAPH EVERY FUCKING POLITICIAN...AND HAVE EACH ONE OF THESE CUNTS SIT ON TRUTH-TELLING BUTT BLADDERS AND HOOKED UP WHILE THEY SPEAK....CONTINUOUSLY.....
FUCKING LIARS....THE LOT OF THEM....
Waterboard - polygraphing sociopathic liars may not be sufficient to get at the truth.
Okay, let's look at the 1st four assertions by Georgie.
re (1) Georgie, so I guess if a bunch of your Zelot followers blow up a building 20 years from now it will be a "fact" you were partly responsible because you inspired their creating a hate group?
re (2) Of course the attack was "preventable" and "entirely forseeable".
> Virtually every act done by human hand is preventable and entirely foreseeable. It is entirely forseeable you or the President could be shot tomorrow by a nut job and it could be preventable; if we knew exactly who and when and how. What's sad is your thinking it takes a 9/11 Commission by your friends to "show" it. Really Georgie?
re (3) LoL. Ignoring you source reports from almost soley the most liberal biased, anit-Bush organizations... Regarding your e.g. - "U.S. intelligence services have repeatedly infiltrated …, but then idiotically failed to stop them. For example … FBI informant … begged the FBI to substitute fake bomb power [sic] for real explosives, but his FBI handler moronically let real explosives be used."
> Are you really so stupid as to equate a failure of one person as the failure of a whole organization? With your reasoning the whole US military is a failure if one soldier fails and it results in others dying.
re (4) re "Dick Cheney was in charge of all of America's counter-terrorism exercises, activities and responses on 9/11. See this Department of State announcement "
> LOL here's the 1st sentence in the DOD announcement -> " President Bush May 8 directed Vice President Dick Cheney to coordinate development of U.S. government initiatives to combat terrorist attacks on the United States."…. Gerogie, I know this is hard for you to grasp, but "corrdinate the development" does NOT mean " in charge of all of America's counter-terrorism exercises, activities and responses"
So, let's see. Three examples of reasoning and logic rivaling that of homeless let out of mental institutions, and one flat out lie.
Good job Georgie. You are a disgustingly small minded and hearted man that George Washington would be deeply embarrassed and offended by your using his image.
I smelled a rat when they found the "hijackers" car with copies of the Koran and flight manuals in it about 8pm that night in a parking lot at Logan airport. Hell, it takes me about as long to find my car in an airport parking lot and I generally have an idea where I left the damn thing....
Their passports also miraculously survived the crash while two huge buildings were completely destroyed.
This goes much deeper than Bush and started long before he got into office. Politicians are merely a facade. Look at how the CIA and MI6 are now overthrowing Muslim governments across the globe using their new allies Al Qaeda.
What about building 7? It just collapsed and it wasn't even hit by a plane.
Fish, Bld 7 was certainly the wake-up call for me. I just didn't want to believe that the international bankers would murder 3,000 Americans. Hell, why not, they've been doing it for a couple hundred years.
Silverstein: "were gonna have to pull it". WTF?
a number of these strategies are similar to Fast and Furious. (Obama DOJ didn't hesitate to use them either)
the period before 9/11 and after 2008 provide more context. the Bush people were already waging a stealth war against blue dogs, (moderate Democrats) before the election. the strategy was to discredit the moderates so that the ideological debate could be painted in extreme terms. Bill Clinton tried to be a moderate, but it only drew more criticism, until the impeachment order, which was in place when Clinton had the chance to take out Bin Laden militarily. congressional GOP blocked the move, (although Clinton had given THEM everything they wanted on Iraq uncluding sanctions and a nofly zone, which killed thousands of Iraqi civilians.) Clintons blowjob was directly responsible for 9-11. say but true.
recall Tarpley had written the Unauthorized Bio of GHWB before this, and if you put Clintons behavior in persepective you might see it differently. Clinton and Bush Sr are very good friends by the way. Jr hates his father, probably because he knows that a lot of what Tarpley wrote is true. why did he become President? partly because he wanted to show his father up, and finish the Iraq war. but in the end he couldn't get by without a lot of those Nixon people, (cheney rumsfeld)
(and you better watch who Romney appoints too, to get an idea if you need to get your passport in order.) i don't think the Democrat party can win another one, these guys know politics is a contact sport, the Femo-crats are no match for these guys. its their country to destroy. we only live here.
You're too full of shit. The GOP blocked Clinton from putting a cruise missile up OBL's ass but they couldn't stop him from bombing Serbia and occupying it for the past 14 years? If you really think OBL is responsible for 9-11 then you're an even bigger idiot.
"Clintons blowjob was directly responsible for 9-11. say but true"....absolutely NOT TRUE..monika's failure to swallow thou was the reason clinton got caught. so monika's lack of gag reflex caused the collapse of the world trade centers....probably. sounds reasonable i guess.
A woman who doesn't "swallow" and allows her dress to sit in her closet with cum on it is just well, just so fucking repulsive that I can only think that it was a set up. And to think she handed over her dress for DNA analysis and was able to point to the spot where his semen fell. I don't think so...
But, Bill was just as worthless as all the presidents. The first attack on WTC happened at that point in time, I recall. That may have actually been an bonified attempt but who knows because the investigatoin was overshadowed by thie multimillion dollar investigation of a president getting a blow job by an eager slut who would settle spread her legs for a goddam cigar. What a dispiccable person.
Yeah, it was Clitnons fault for sure
Do the words..."Stand Down" ring a bell?
This is a little more complicated than just incompetance.
Cheney was in the White House with Nixon, Ford, Defense Secretary with HW.
That was His House, since 1971.

You bring many good things to the mind,thank you for that GW.
Some old news, others new news,inside the old news!
Have you read the Guardian today,due to the global warming,the earth will be in lack of water in 2050,i just read this mindblowing news,wonder if the Hockeystick fits into this program.
That migh be the reason, Gore ,The All Polar Bear,bought this fancy seaside Mansion at Montecito California!!
The wheel is spinning fast,these days.
It has never been proven 19 Al Qaeda terrorists did the deed, nor has the event been forensically or crimminally, investigated. To believe such is as much a "conspiracy theory" as any other explanation of events that day.
but someone found a totally intact passport from one of the terrorists just laying right there on Manhattan sidewalk. that proves it 100% in my mind. case closed.
Otto: for the dumbasses out there, you can append </sarc> and 10% of them will understand. That will reduce your pussy junksta' count by a whopping 0.2 pussy junks as of right now.

What a load of hooey.
Decades old neo conservative plans? First of all "neo" means new. How can "new" be decades old?
Come on folks. Are you going to believe this or what we have witnessed over the past 3 years?
(9) The Bush administration immediately used the 9/11 attacks as an excuse to carry out decades-old neoconservative plans to implement regime change throughout the Middle East and North Africa. And see this,
Since Obuma has taken office, there havee been so many regime changes I can't keep track of them all. Egypt, Lybia, Tunisia come to mind and now they are working on Syria.
Does everyone know who is behind all this? The NDI. It's a regular who's who of, failed to get re-elected, Democrats. http://www.ndi.org/board-of-directors
Someone has an agenda and I doubt it's the new conservatives. aka: The Tea Party
A little primer on the neo-con movement:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neoconservatism
Both parties in congress have embraced the main tenants of neo-conservatism... only the Ron Paul Libertarian movement has a different idealogy.
Ron Paul's 2003 speech to congress:
http://www.ronpaul.com/2008-05-17/ron-paul-exposes-the-neocon-agenda/
How can news be decades old,oh thats a tricky one??
If Nixon told >Kissinger a news back in 74,and Kissinger promised not to reveal it until 2012,It would be news to the ears that first heard it in 2012,but ill ask Einstein for help here,cause im just a Bricklayer.
actually 'neo' means 'new-er' so neo-conservative would be a newer perspective.
Neocons go all the way back to Zionists like Hebey Kissinger.
Spot on...
Thanks, Geo! It's the most even-handed summary of Truth Theory I've seen yet. Obviously this will not make you popular with the crazy omniscience crowd.
But I think you're doing a good job, man.
This inartistic rhetoric seems to steel opposition to the original premise,
no matter how valid the premise.
Items 1 thru 6 did not support Mr. Washington's premise of "Criminal Incompetence and Ass Covering".
Didn't bother with the rest.
Usually Mr. Washington supports his arguments, this just seems to be a rehash of disparate complaints.
Great article - yet you failed to mention the phoney Niger "Yellow Cake" smoking gun proof Cheney used to justify the Invasion and war. You know the illusory old WMD threat, they leaked to the British, then used the British report to backup their claim. Remember the good folks at CIA trying to get Powell to take it out of his UN speech?
What penalty for an duplicitous $1 trillion dollar war and thousands of brave American solders killed and maimed?
What about the $50 BILLION in "missing" US Taxpayer cash that was sent to Iraq in four huge cargo planes? No real investigation, no trace!
How does 20 tons of cash just disappear???
Nothing to see here - move along.
And never getting Bin Laden in eight years? Huh? All the while he was hanging out a stones through from the Pakistani Military Elite Hang-out. Has anyone ever heard of signals intelligence. Or letting him get away in Tora Bora - that's a great story!
Some folks here need to turn off Fox-Aganda and do just little research. Do you want to know where a good portion of our Debt comes from? Try two unfunded wars - at Trillion Dollars each.
Read: Armed Madhouse it was all laided out by the NEO-Cons in 2000 - the same folks who comprise Romeny's foreign policy team.

Between TARP (which Ryan voted for) and the other 22 Federal Bailout programs - the Bush administration has to go down in history as the most corrupt. What fun is in store if Romney is elected...magic underwear for everyone! And we're going to need it.
I guess Unwashed is OK with that...wow...you must be a Rove operative or....
Yes, ignore the Fox agenda and pay attention to the MSNBC agenda, that will make things all better (sarc)...
MSNBC sucks since Dylan the anti-banker ranter left. But at least he got airtime there for awhile. Name one decent person on Fox Noise? And Steve Duce doesn't count! Everyone is a corporate/banker suck-up. Same for CNBC.
I'm afraid all these corporate owned media outlets are worthless.
Fox being the worst - it'd be like James Carvell became the MSNBC programing chief. Roger Alies is a piece of shit - so is Rove.
These guys could give a crap about America or the average Joe/Jane.
The Fox conglomerate is fucking owned by that assfuck Murdock.
Listen the Dems are pretty bad - Clinton and his Nafta/WTO and Gramm-Leach. Obama and that sucker Gietner (I shouldn't of said that - here comes another IRS audit - sorry Timmy, that last one cost the taxpayers a $174 additional refund).
But on a relative scale nothing beats Cheney and Dub-ya
Ron Paul is the only honest pol out there (that isn't saying much) - and he just said no endorsement for Romney.
Listen if this Hurricane Issac (nice biblical name), was happening to the Dem Convention: Druggie Rush and Insane Druggie Beck would be raving IT'S GODDSS'S RATHHH APON THEM!!!!!
I'm sorry but the GOP is looking more and more like the theocratic Taliban - even planks in the GOP platform are similar to Sharia law.
Look - we don't have much time to get this country right - and I guarantee you this GOP isn't taking us there.
Thank god for ZH!
The single "reform" that Clinton enacted with the most far ranging and lasting impact of all was the Telecommunications Act of 1996:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telecommunications_Act_of_1996
It eliminated competition in the media. Period. Without the massive consolidation of mass media that it enabled there is a chance that the public would be hearing about the shit that his other acts spawned. The entire model of journalism was effectively transformed in the aftermath of this "free market reform."
There's a reason the press is viewed as essential to a free society, i.e., the "watchdog of democracy." Clinton engineered the demolition of the Fourth Estate . . . something far bigger than those falling WTC towers.
Once the press is easily controlled, anything else becomes possible. As we're now seeing, for example, with the elimination of the rule of law for financial mega-crime. The masses have no clue.
The single "reform" that Clinton enacted with the most far ranging and lasting impact of all was the Telecommunications Act of 1996:
SPOT ON!
It also dropped the rules on foreign control of our media! Why? He was bribed by Murdoch.
Just to remind folks News Corp which owns Fox, is not owned and controlled my an American!!!
He now controls Fox News, Fox Entertainment, The Wall Street Journal, Barrons, Dow Jones, the NY Post News, the National Star, controls CNBC through a jt contract...
consider a vote for romney:
a. he is not obama
b. obama deserves punishment
c. democrats less likely to advocate reform in second obama term (fourth g.w. bush term) than in opposition to romney
d. romney has made zero mistakes as president
e. romney has no principles
f. he may govern to the left of obama
romney has no principles
Great reason to have him as President - ARE YOU INSANE???
he may govern to the left of obama
Yes you are
Just the red side of a blue coin.
Your consistent illogic pours forth once again.
NOTHING in the above (highly worthwhile) post was even implicitly supportive of either side of the phoney red team/blue team farce. But I guess you were too busy looking for any possible 9/11-related engineering angles in the post to realize that.
"NOTHING in the above (highly worthwhile) post was even implicitly supportive of either side of the phoney red team/blue team farce."
If this were true, it would have actually had to be critical of both red/blue or take pains to be objective.
you are right. still many points made are telling.
given the obama administration's absolute refusal to prosecute any of the bush administration or any decision maker level people in the "greatest control fraud in history" aka the great recession, there is obvious complicity by both sides.
indictments of the u.s. government are more persuasive if couched in bipartisan terms. also more accurate. imo.
This particular post of Mr. Washington's is bullshit... And it most definately dumbs down the ZH website even though as I have posted previously that I think Tyler's work is awesome...
if its thumbs down on ZH in your mind, then leave and never return.
The money trail is all that is really needed to find the orchestrators of 9-11. It is paved in gold with neocon signs pointing in the direction of the perpetrators. The crash site provided hundreds of pieces of evidence by their presence or lack of their presence. The eye witnesses who have not died in freak accidents are more proof.
That you refuse to even consider the growing evidence that supports the truth, and that you side with an administratoin that cashed in on the murder of Americans must mean you are ignorant or cashed in on it yourself in some fashion. Perhaps by being a paid commentator on internet web sites.
Ignorance is Strength
