<<< If there were not so many unusual things about the 9/11 events, then there would be little or no conspiracy talk. >>> There is "little or no conspiracy talk". This board is not representative of the rest of the world.

<<< Did Bush, Rumsfeld and Gen Meyers do nothing during the 9/11 attacks? >>> They learned about the attack after the first plane hit the tower. What were they supposed to do, call up the airforce themselves and tell them to shoot down civilian aircraft before they even knew why the first plane hit the building? There was a good chance the first one was an accident. It wasn't until the second one hit that everyone pretty much figured out that it was a deliberate act. <<< Were no arab names, and certainly not the hijackers, on the flight manifests for the 4 9/11 planes? >>> Uh, they were trying to hide their identities? We saw security camera shots of the terrorists going through security and onto the planes. You think that if they used their real names it would be more conclusive than actually seeing them walk onto the planes? <<< Were military planes not scrambled, despite ample time, to defend DC and prevent the Pentagon from being hit? >>> Yes, planes were scrambled. There was no time to avoid the second and third impacts unless communication was perfect. Obviously communication was imperfect and there was a lot of confusion. That's not evidence of anything. <<< Does the FBI not list 9/11 as a reason why Osama Bin Laden is wanted? >>> This is a stupid point.
