The 9/11 Conspiracy "Theory"

I recently viewed the documentary "911: In Plane Sight". It was a revealing look into the events surrounding the terrible tragedy on September 11th, 2001. I definitely recommend it. If you have Netflix it is available to watch instantly on your computer. Total run time is about 72 minutes.

The movie points out several discrepancies as to what the nation was led to believe and what "really" happened. Key points included are:

  1. The hole in the wall of the Pentagon could not have possibly been created by an airliner
  2. There are tons of surveillance cameras on the Pentagon, yet none showed a plane crashing into the building
  3. No debris from an airplane were found at the Pentagon
  4. President Bush said that he learned of the events because he saw the video of the first plane crashing into the Towers, yet no news stations had footage of this. (because it was a "surprise" attack) How is that possible then?
  5. There was a short explosion on both planes right before they impacted the Towers
  6. There were unidentified objects on the bottom of the planes, which is inconsistent with commercial airliners
  7. Several firefighters reported that they had heard explosions inside the buildings after the attack
  8. People who witnessed the airplanes said that they were NOT American Airlines planes
  9. There was a report from a Cincinnati news station reporting that Flight 93 made an emergency landing at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport because of a suspected bomb on board, yet "flight 93" crashed in PA about an hour beforehand

I cannot say one way or another way really happened that day, and it's obvious that the government doesn't want us to know. After all, the average American is way too stupid. Was it just a ploy to get Americans to back a war against terrorists? (Which leads me to another point, how can the government possibly stop every person that wishes to strap a bomb on their back and blow shit up?)

How does it make you feel that it was our own government that could have been responsible for the thousands of deaths that day? Not to mention the thousands of soldiers who have died in Iraq and Afghanistan. Who really are the terrorists?

Will the truth ever be revealed?

(I'll probably be on the FBI watch list now, how wonderful!)
