No shit and especially when you have Barabra Olsen doing a play by play into the Pentagon on her cell phone.

Where did you hear of this story? "The pseudotheories of `The Horrifying Fraud' feed off the paranoid anti-Americanism that is one of the permanent components of the French political caldron," Gérard Dupuy wrote in an editorial in Libération. That often seems to fit the French. I think it started with de Gaulle. He was royally pissed off that France did not emerge a major power from WW2 and that we did. The injustice of it! How dare history do that! Guillaume Dasquié and Jean Guisnel, the authors of "The Horrifying Lie," favor a different explanation for the book's success. They write of France's "profound social and political sickness," which leads people to embrace the idea "that they are victims of plots, that the truth is hidden from them, that they should not believe official versions, but rather that they should demystify all expressions of power, whatever they might be." Which is where this has led them. His "truth" is that no Muslims took part in the attacks "because the Koran forbids suicide." This should greatly cheer up the Israelis. They also have named experts explaining how the Boeing 757 could disappear inside the crater caused by the impact. Further, they identify several people mentioned only by their initials in Mr. Meyssan's acknowledgments, including a French Army officer currently on trial for treason Good source.
