Like most conspiracy theories, when you start to ask the question "so why would they do it like that?" it falls apart.
@Duke:
"I believe 9/11 was allowed to happen by the U.S. government."
So do I, but by their complacency and failure to act on intelligence, not as part of a plan.
@ MARK
LOL
"conspiracy theorists can't think" Emmm how did they come up with the theory then???
*EDIT*
OK then seeing as though you have no sense of humour, lets get serious then.
You asked what motive would the American government have to blow up the twin towers.
Well, first of all nobody has said the government did it, but that they allowed it to happen, there is a big difference. In not knowing this it shows your complete lack of historical knowledge. The U.S. government has been caught numerous times in the past and has even admitted using 'False Flag' operations. these include 'Operation Northwood' and 'Gulf of Tonkin'. Both of these are undeniable so please explain why it is that you don't believe in such things when they are real?
The purpose of doing this is to make the American public believe that the threat to their country is so large that they have to invade possible terrorist 'havens such as Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya. The American Empire is coming to an end, as all empires do, and the only way for the US to now to secure resources is by force. The Chinese will soon be the new world leader, whether you like it or not, and your government knows this, even if you don't. This is why they have become careless and desperate in their need to remain 'top dog'. This happens to all empires just read a little about the British and you will see the similarity. Of course that is if you have any real knowledge of what happens outside of the US, which I very much doubt.
So, to sum up, It would appear that you are the one that has a 'thinking' problem as you believe what you are told, not what actually happened. Therefore no thinking was used to come to your conclusion, yet you claim others don't think?? Totally ridiculous.
Because they have a paranoid mentality and think the government is evil and out to get everyone. A lot of people claim it was a hoax (although they probably know its wasn't) for political purposes to blame and demonize countries like the US and Israel.
Then there are people like Jesse "The Nut" Ventura who are raking in the cash from these ridiculous conspiracy theories. They write books, do TV shows and give live talks all for a large fee to tell the conspiracy theorists out there exactly what they want to hear.
Would you kindly...
Yo cascade knows his ****, Watts up *****??? Anyways dumb f ucken people who put 200% trust in the media. The people that where there will tell you the heard explosions, not to mention the buildings falling the way they did defies physics. Have you seen the hole in the ****** wall of the pentagon??? No way a ****** plane crashed into it. Oh and about the pentagon, there is NO RECORDING showing a plane hit the pentagon!! f uck that old dude who answered! People ask questions the media refuses to answer so then they research and find the lies. YouTube "lose change" great documentary. Oh and it was all for oil. Us troops made approx. 2000 a month in the middle east protecting the men stealing the oil who made 8000 a Week, look it up.
I believe 9/11 was allowed to happen by the U.S. government. Do not call me anti-American. I love my country.
The 9/11 Truth consists of NYC firemen, physicians, architects and U.S. intelligence officers who disagree with the 9/11 commission report. Are you disrespectful punks going to call them terrorists? The fact is leaders in government can lie, kill, manipulate, and deceive their own citizens.
The crazy 'pancake effect' is fraudulent. How come the floors of the WTC were not stacked on one another once the dust cleared?? The Twin Towers collapsed within nine seconds.
911 is nothing compared to the Lincoln and Kennedy conspiracies. When you think how many people the theorists would have on the "grassy knoll," it seems like the 911 truthers are pretty mild.
Because people like to believe they are clever. It massages their ego. Also people have boring unimportant lives, so seeing conspiracise everywhere makes their lives more interesting.
Its a HOAX!
The mainstream media LIES!
KILL YOUR TELEVISION!
Get Real people
Bust the emperor for indecent exposure!
There is no reason why building 3 collapsed except demolition. It was not hit by any planes.
Why does a normal building just fall down ? They have on tape a news reporter saying " they are going to blow the building, back off ".
9/11 happened as they say it did (I watched it on TV in the UK as it happened) its just in recent years people who are Muslim apologists try to play it down to try and take the heat from the extreme Islamists.
I have been interested about 9/11 lately and was researching things about how people think its a hoax. After awhile of looking it was all about how a explosion went off before the planes hit and how a " third" building colapsed and I'm starting to believe it. I've had thoughts like what if the goverment was blaming every big thing on Iraq just to kill them and take over Iraq and Afghanistan but my question is why would the us sacrifice human lives to just be a hoax. Why would they need to blowup the twin towers and a third tower and sacrifice lives to blame iraq? I'm very confused and I'm wondering if anyone can shed some light on this and tell me what's happening.
