1. Don't all the high-level officials agree on what happened on 9/11?
2. Isn't 9/11 a partisan political issue, where extremists in one
party are simply trying to smear the other party for political gain?
3. Isn't it disrespectful to the victims of 9/11 and their families to
question the events of that day?
No. Many of the families of the victims question the official story and are
demanding that the truth be disclosed. The same is true of many dying
heroes - the first responders who worked tirelessly to save lives on and after
9/11 - and are soon to become victims of the 9/11 attacks themselves. See
this article.
4. Isn't it clear that Muslims carried out 9/11, and the war on terror
is a clash of civilizations and religions? Therefore, isn't 9/11 skepticism
harmful to our faith?
5. Isn't this kind of thinking really a psychological problem? And
isn't it promoted by anti-semites?
6. Aren't conspiracy theories anti-American, and isn't all the
questioning of 9/11 part of what's wrong with America today?
7. Doesn't questioning 9/11 distract from much more important issues
facing America today?
8. But the government would NEVER hurt its own people. At least not
intentionally.
Actually, the U.S. government -- and many other Western governments -- have
done so before. Initially, the Joint Chiefs of Staff actually
approved
a plan to carry out terrorist attacks and kill U.S. citizens and blame it
on
Cuba, as a
justification for invading
Cuba. And a
government informant has stated that he tried to stop the 1993 World Trade
Center bombing, but that the FBI intentionally
let the bombing happen
. There are many other examples of
other governments killing their own people for
political gain, and
the U.S. government doing killing its own as well.
As additional examples of the U.S. government letting U.S. citizens die based
upon deceptions, many people breathed in highly toxic dust near ground zero,
after the government
knowingly misrepresented the risk, going as far
as
discouraging first responders from wearing masks. The U.S.
government also misled the American people into the Iraqi war, causing
thousands of American deaths.
9. Terrorists crashing planes into the World Trade Center
and Pentagon was
wholly unexpected in 2001, wasn't it?
10. But there is always confusion in any battle situation. Wasn't it
the "fog of war" which prevented a successful response to the 9/11 attacks?
11. Wouldn't a huge conspiracy involving thousands of people have been
necessary to carry out 9/11, and wouldn't someone have spilled the beans by
now if there really was a conspiracy?
12. Let's get back to the government's failure to stopping or
intercepting the attacks. If the U.S. government wasn't perfect in stoping the
9/11 attacks, wasn't it due to a series of innocent mistakes or -- at the very
worst -- incompetence?
And there has been a
clear government cover-up
of the facts of 9/11. Why would the government work so hard to
cover up the true facts of 9/11, going so far as to repeatedly misrepresent
the facts and change its story, if incompetence was the only problem with the
official story?
13. Didn't a government agency come clean about their mistaken
timeline, solving the whole 9/11 "conspiracy" once and for all?
14. Isn't talk about "demolition" of the Twin Towers just a crazy
theory by a couple of nutty people?
15. But no one could have planted all of the explosives needed to
bring down the Twin Towers without people
noticing, right?
16. If rogue elements within the U.S. government did cause 9/11, why
would they have used bombs to bring down the Twin Towers, when crashing
planes into the buildings would have been sufficient to act as a "Pearl Harbor"
type justification for war?
Apparently, for its
shock and awe
effect, which made for a very overwhelmed, afraid, and thus
compliant population.
17. I've heard claims made by the so-called "9/11 Truth Movement"
which have turned out to be false. Doesn't that invalidate the whole 9/11
thing?
No, for two reasons. First, there are so many lines of evidence which
overwhelmingly prove that 9/11 was an inside job, that even if one or two
theories are disproven, the basic thesis still stands.
Moreover, there are some people who are simply sloppy in their thinking, and
who throw out unfounded theories which do not stand up to scrutiny. In
addition, there are, unfortunately, disruptive people who are working hard to
make crazy claims to
intentionally discredit the movement. This is a
traditional tactic for
undermining those who question the government.
