I have famously believed that this was an inside job, and there is not a doubt in my mind, since it happened.
Maybe this is part of the problem with you. You're just going off what you wanted to believe from the beginning instead of what reality tells you. Do you ever put your preconceived notions aside and think without them? If you really want to change people's minds, like you state, you would do a lot better job going that route. You probably wouldn't even think of some of the sillier things you do in the first place.

Unfortunately since nothing can be proven, I turn my energies towards other political missions, such as trying to convince people not to support the war (any war), and to see "us" the same way we see our enemies - as just people trying to get on with their lives, with deceitful leaders, but whom as a people have nothing but peaceful intentions. Just like us.
Actually most of what happened CAN and HAS been proven.
Not to mention we are not the same as our enemies. You want to know what's really funny. The only large groups of people in the Islamic world that aren't pussies and have the balls to stand up to their leaders are..........the terrorists. That doesn't speak well for everybody else. Sorry, it's not just their deceitful leaders. When you can show us the masses protesting in the street against both terrorism and their leaders I will believe you. Somehow when a group of people gathers in the street to cheer something it's always to cheer the leaders or the terrorist. It makes you wonder. Maybe you should turn you energies to where they will teach people something real. What you try to do would be the equivalent of me going out and trying to teach people the sun sets in the East. Than again keep on doing it. Even a lie if told enough will convince some nonsensical people out there it's true. Just look at the people that think 9/11 was a conspiracy.

There were also some good ones in Europe about how that couldn't have been the case.
Most of them are garbage and relay on lack of explanation to explain things like how a certain building fell. No matter that non conspiracy theorist have better explanations for even the things that are still not 100% conclusive. It's probably because their version is infantry closer to the truth.

Nothing has ever been proven
I have a crazy idea. How about you not believe in things....untill they are proven.

There's really no evidence for anything. Any piece of evidence you have ever seen or heard about 911 came from some media source or other, unless you were there, and you witnessed it. So there is really NO evidence, one way or the other, for anything.
Ah yes, the old conspiracy theorist fallacy. Everything that has ever came up and been proven must have been made by the bad guys or the people working for them, even if the chance of something like that occurring is slim to the point of nonexistence. So the mountains of evidence that completely disproves my theory I will just put along with my conspiracy theory to allow myself to CONVIENYETLY dismiss whatever doesn't suit me. That way I can ignore anything that proves me wrong.

Which is why I always choose the conclusion that makes sense to me.
:rofl: I think I will have to save that quote for posterity. I don't know what this says more about and is more damning to, all your hair-brained imaginings, or you and your "sense". :rofl2:
In fact I can think of several reasons why terrorist might want to do that. Maybe they miscalculated the impact it would cause and thought it would be worse. Maybe they thought that if they attacked us in a significant way and could keep on doing it over time the American people would just give up in the Middle East and go away. Maybe they just wanted a chance to take out as many American targets at once as reasonalby possible. Maybe they wanted to show us they could potentially attack us at any time. Even if they thought we might go over there maybe they thought it would give them a chance to more easily attack American targets that are stationed overseas (and it has). It isn't like terrorist are that concerned about dying or even about the people in their countries dying if they think they can reach a certain objective by doing it. I find it amusing for all the talk about how you try to understand both sides and how they both think and how you think we are just the same you in fact don't know much about either of them.
