>Why do so few in the world agree with the conspiracy theory? It's too much against the grain. Too risky. Everybody watching their own back. What are you going to do. Go Blogging?? Big deal. You can't convince anybody of anything unless u can drum it in to their head 24/7 with some kind of neurolinguistic programming... Oh well. Visualize the perfect golf swing. Now visualize the perfect conspiracy theory. I'm like. What is that. ....

Re: Why do so few in the world agree with the conspiracy theory? For the most part, because they are unaware of the issue, having been spoon fed a fantasy by the mainstream media. This is certainly not the case in sophisticated areas such as metropolitan New York where at least half of the citizens agree that the official story is crap and want a real investigation into 9/11. For more sophisticated people such as Sy Hersh or Amy Goodman, the issue is one of their journalistic standards. Without a "smoking gun" proof to report, such people are shy about covering the various scenarios that people who are willing to take a more speculative and prosecutorial approach have done. I fault Goodman and Hersh for failure of courage. They well know that the official story is as full of holes as a Swiss cheese wheel. But they are averting their eyes because of timidity. *** Why are news organizations across the world not doing a complete expose of this? If you can point out the profit possibility to them, they'd be on this in a New York minute. Mainstream media is a crass, corrupt fraud today. It is venal, superficial and vulgar. It is completely betraying us. The only place you'll find brave muck raking journalism today is in the rare corners of alternative media and across the Internet, the last great hope of an informed democracy. *** Re: Where is the momentum that is to be expected? Expected by whom? The American sheeple have no expectations, other than to be alternately titillated or bored by the latest load of crap dumped on them by the infotainment industry.
