Bush administration responsible for 9/11 attacks

The 9/11 Commission omitted and distorted hundreds of facts in their book, and they do not even mention World Trade Center 7, a building not hit by a plane, two blocks away, that collapsed in on itself around 5 p.m. that day. They omit Norman Mineta's testimony that he observed Cheney giving a stand down order. The whole book is lies and propaganda, just like the Commission itself.

There is still no clear video of what exactly hit the Pentagon, I do not find it coincidental that the "plane" struck the wing that was under renovation. Around 125 civilian workers were killed in the Pentagon on Sept. 11, none of them military, does that not make you wonder?

The twin towers exhibit classic signs of controlled demolition, falling at freefall speed, molten steel in the rubble, reports from FDNY and NYPD of explosions in the towers, and much more. No steel high-rise building had collapsed due to fire in history up until Sept. 11. The towers were engineered to withstand being hit by a plane; do you think the architects were stupid?

The 9/11 Commission had a budget of $15 million, that's less than we spent on Clinton, and this was after the victims families had to nag Bush for two years. Now, 80 percent of their questions remain unanswered, and they are demanding a new independent criminal investigation into those "attacks." I feel it is our patriotic duty to support them in their quest for truth.

Looking back on those events, it seems very unlikely that 19 rag-tag Arabs, armed with box cutters and pocketknives somehow hijacked planes (to which they had no experience flying), defeated the most advanced arid defense system in the world, all under the guidance of a man in cave with a laptop.

And this is just the beginning folks, because every aspect of the official government line of bullshit is contradicted with evidence. Sept. 11 appears to be an inside job. It does not matter though, because after today, after the major corporate media reminds us of those tragic deaths, and replays countless footage of those planes hitting the towers, we will forget. The last thing our controllers want is conscious, informed, united public, capable of seeing past the illusion created by fear.

you sir, are truly a moron.
You say the Bush administration is responsible. Hands down one of the most idiotic statements I've ever heard. The hijackers and masterminds of 9/11 planned the attack years in advance. (Continued…)

This is possibly the most uneducated column I've seen. How this was even printed is beyond belief. You really think a president could formulate such an act and it be kept secret by all parties involved? All parts of this column were completely ridiculous. (Continued…)

Is it so hard to believe that the government may have lied to us? I don't think so. I remember watching the attacks at school, and I recall many witnesses saying the planes did not look like commercial airliners. (Continued…)

I'm getting fed up with this Iraq being all Bush's fault. Question... Who declares war? Congress, not the President. While he had a vital role, you can also blame the 80-some Democrats voting aye for the war. (Continued…)

Let me guess. You watched "Loose Change" or the equally dumb first half of "Zeitgeist" and decided to believe every word because you hate "Bu$h" and think you can blame everything wrong with this country on his administration. (Continued…)

Before people forget, Congress has the power to declare war. However, Congress never declared war with Iraq, they simply appropriated funds for our troops. (Continued…)

Really? Yet, the Senate voted for the use of armed forces for Iraq. (http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=107&session=2&vote=00237) I don't see any funding in that particular measure. (Continued…)

Though I don't necessarily buy into conspiracy theories, either, there is some strong evidence that the official version of 9/11 isn't the most accurate one. (Continued…)

How soon do we forget that Iraq used chemical munitions in its war with Iraq, used Biological weapons against own people, and, after the 2003 invasion of Iraq, over 5,000 weapons filled with poison gas and nerve agents were found by United States forces. (Continued…)
