"Investigate 9/11," he said. "9/11 was perpetrated by our own government."
I think he might be right.
"might" being the operative word.
It's a weird situation, the amount of circumstantial evidence that establishes several strong motives for the complicity of members of the US authorities is just huge.
But circumstantial evidence is still just that.
These suspects are influential enough that it's not worth pursuing, justice cannot be served for a crime so vast that has been so consummately covered up. It doesn't seem to matter how suspicious all that circumstantial evidence is, most people refuse to believe that a crime like that could be committed at the level of complicity required to have maintained the bogus official story.
"someone honest, somewhere would have said something"
"they did, Bush will not travel to Indonesia or Malaysia as there is a warrant out for his arrest. Several thousand US based structural engineers, that are willing to risk their careers, claim the official story is BS. There have been several governement whistleblowers on specific aspects, all have been subjected to mudslinging, all lost their careers"
"exactly, someone would have said something."
It'll take a long time to untangle this mess, people are unwilling to accept anything but the official story as long as all the current trusted media (including organisations like Wikileaks) continue to prop that story up. It's more likely that they'll become untrusted before they give the story up.
Thinking for yourself is so common as a plot device in mainstream culture, and is regarded as a virtuous trait, yet so few people consider that the narrative for the real world needs to be scrutinised with a bit of critical thought. And these free-thinking hero characters are celebrated. That's what I don't get. I guess people think "but it's only TV"
