If the Gov't can blow up three towers in plain sight, buy off every aviation/demolition/mechanical/civil engineer in the civilized world, and pay off everyone who was involved, why the HELL can't they yank a video down off the internet thirty seconds after it's been posted? Why can't they keep tabs on anybody who starts asking around about 9-11? Why didn't those two nutjobs who filmed "Loose change" die of a car accident, or a drug overdose, before uploading the film onto the internet?
The answer: The Government isn't doing anything of the sort.Maybe because 9-11 WASN'T a defense failure. NOTHING in the system was designed to prevent such an attack. A plane switches off the transponder over the east coast, you need to go through FIVE THOUSAND identical blips on the radar to track it down. What REALLY doesn't help is the fact that the air traffic control equipment dates back to WWII tech.noir wrote:The bigger thing i've never been able to get my head round is why you voted Bush back in after he presided the biggest defence failure in american history
Bush stepped in, rallied the country, kicked in the Taliban's teeth, and did a smashing good job around the time of the 2004 election, thank you very much.
Dude, what the fuck? You got that quote from Maddox's bestpageintheuniverse. That was what I was pointing in the direction of, jesus, listen.

NOT some overwhelming "OMG GOVERNMENT WAS BEHIND 9/11!!!! RAWR".
Which is why i asked if you watched the video.
The point being why would the government want to destroy connections with itself and 9/11 if no such connections actually exist.

Maybe its not directly 9/11. It's the fucking NSA. They can kinda do anything to cover up anything.
Still, in terms of the pentagon attack, there are plenty of bits that don't add up. In terms of the towers, thats pretty much confirmed.
and Rot you basically just in that sentence provided a bit of proof to that there is SOMETHING.

Are you saying that the official story is logistically 'confirmed' to be true, or that the official story is not true?

I doubt there is any suppressing going on, except the suppression of leaks.

As someone who used to buy in to all of that Pentagon, trust me, it was a plane.
KristallNacht wrote:and Rot you basically just in that sentence provided a bit of proof to that there is SOMETHING.
Not really, because I am also inferring that there is no secret group that is secretly throwing journalists that they don't like (except the one blabbing off and stealing all their classified data, of course) and trying to destroy evidence connecting the government to 9/11.
ReconToaster wrote:Well I disagree that it has been proven.
Don't tell me that you buy into all that crap!? You and I disagree on practically everything, but you've shown yourself to be far more logical than that. If you can't understand how I can have faith in God, how can you possibly buy into the truthers!? If I need to, I'll get out that point by point rebuttal to Loose Change that originally inspired multi quoting for me.
Re: Government group supressing 9/11 connections?
Let's just crash a plane into the pentagon
then it REALLY WILL have been a plane
but we have to do it on off-hours so we don't kill people

I don't understand what your arguing, if they did cover it up, you wouldn't know or hear anything about it, and it would be existent, if they didn't cover it up, then you would also not not know anything about it, and it would not be existent, but you wouldn't know either way.

You never differentiated between Iraq and Afghanistan. I barely associate Iraq with 9-11, because I know we didn't go to war with Iraq because of 9-11.KristallNacht wrote:but you and Rasq both incinuated I supported the belief being discussed in the video, and Rasq made a horrible connection between the taliban and Iraq, and ignored the fact that the person i argued against earlier was saying there was no reason not to go to war after 9/11.
The video barely mentioned 9-11. The thread's title was "Gov't group supressing 9/11 connections?". You are a known 'truther'. I put two and two together and got four... although it could easily have been three, five, or anything in between.KristallNacht wrote:The video merely concerns a part of the NSA that may be tasked with destroying possible connections and maintaining info.

Only if you assume, with 100% certainty, that the US government is suppressing 9/11 evidence.
If you approach it without any preconceptions, you realize that either the Government is destroying evidence or it isn't.

I ran across that page years ago, and forgot what the page was... I remembered the arguments though... and I used them.
Sorry, deep misunderstanding here.

Well it's certainly not a matter of faith. I'm not really decided with my views on 9/11, but there are a lot of things about it that just seem... not right. Trust me, I hate myself when I start actually considering some of those EXTREME conspiracy theories... but I can't just ignore the out of place elements. It's not something I take lightly in coming to conclusions about.
I certainly don't doubt that the towers got hit by air planes, but beyond that... I don't know.

never said it wasn't a plane lol
but even the video the pentagon released suggests it wasn't a 747.

And is that an Orion nuclear propulsion craft you have for an avatar?

Eh, as kind and helpful as that sounds, I don't really want to get into it. I would still like to pick up that magazine that popular mechanics did on it. I've read the official investigation reports for the collapse of the twin towers and WTC 7... but I don't know. I don't have a degree in structural engineering... so I'm not sure that my opinion is very valid at all anyways. I'd like to do more 'research.' Still, the whole "no steel building before 9/11 has EVER gone down due to fire" statement echoes in my head. The pentagon is a whole separate cluster-fuck of fishiness.

Why yes... yes it is. If only funding existed for space travel ey?

Re: Government group supressing 9/11 connections?
The Twin Towers are the first steel towers in the world to be destroyed by fire, but they are also the only towers in the world to have been hit by 747-sized airplanes, dowsed from impact floor to lobby in burning kerosene, and left burning for two hours. In addition, they are one of a few, if not the only, hanging steel structures to burn that long.ReconToaster wrote:Rasq wrote:Well, ask away, and I'll try my best to answer your questions.

Most of the article, if not all, can be found herehere.
Well, before we build one of those, we need a space elevator on Guam (Close to the Equator, not volcanically active) and a massive railgun in the Arizona desert, to place hardware into orbit. Then we can get to work on space travel... But I'll just be happy to walk on the dark side of the moon.ReconToaster wrote:Rasq wrote:And is that an Orion nuclear propulsion craft you have for an avatar?

Nah, all we really need is an efficient, re-usable spacecraft built for the sole purpose of delivering cargo to an orbital platform. A space elevator is, in terms of human engineering... a long way away.

A space elevator is as closer than you think. The biggest problem is cheap manufacture of carbon fiber, and possibly a fuel source. After that, it's just funding.ReconToaster wrote:Rasq wrote:Well, before we build one of those, we need a space elevator on Guam (Close to the Equator, not volcanically active) and a massive railgun in the Arizona desert, to place hardware into orbit.

But for now, the rail/gauss gun in the desert is a more practical idea.

In the end, would the price for getting cargo into orbit even be any less costly than using a dedicated, re-usable fleet of cargo craft?

Re: Government group supressing 9/11 connections?
I assume it would. Besides the savings on fuel, you have it on the ground at all times, so it is easier and safer to fix when something goes wrong. Reusable shuttles will be used for humans, but the cannon should have WAY more capacity for hardware than a fleet of shuttles.ReconToaster wrote:Rasq'uire'laskar wrote:

No, I heard about it watching old episodes of 'Cosmos,' and I've read about it on NASA's website.
Anyways rasq, while a space elevator would be great, it's really not a necessity for an Orion starship. The original plan was to just nuke it off of Earth's surface in the middle of the Arizona desert. Anyways, why couldn't we just get it into orbit with conventional chemical rockets, and blast off the nukes once it's out of orbit? Is it just a matter of efficiency? Obviously these things are big... and thus pretty hard to get into space...
