I have to tell you, my husband, who is much more knowledgeable about material science than I am, reads all this stuff. And he doesn't think the towers could have collapsed just because of the airplanes (and he keeps screaming about how they got rid of all the scrap way too fast, and sent some of it to China for recycling). I have to tell you, I don't understand the science well enough to be able to evaluate this stuff. sourcewatch.org The destruction of the evidence seemed very odd to me. I don't understand that, but I'm not going to make any judgments on that either, because there's just too much I don't know.

Debunking the BBC's 9-11 Conspiracy Files Introduction On February 18, 2007, the BBC broadcasted an hour-long episode which it claimed would examine and answer the questions of the 9-11 truth movement. However, both the episode and the written Q&A turned out to be attacks on the skeptics rather than a true investigation. The public was presented with a heavily controlled and edited discussion, which was rigged in favour of the official story. Worse yet, propaganda techniques were used to portray the opponents of the official story unfairly. Techniques included: manipulative camerawork, personal attacks and a show which focussed on only the weakest evidence presented by the opponents of the official story. The aim of this article is to address the inaccurate rebuttals offered by the BBC, as well as to analyse the propaganda techniques and reiterate the questions that the BBC failed to address. 1 Could the US Air Force have prevented the attacks? 2 Were the Twin Towers deliberately demolished by explosives? 3 Was WTC7 deliberately demolished by explosives? 4 Were Jews forewarned about the attacks? 5 Did a commercial airline hit the Pentagon? 6 Can CCTV footage prove what happened at the Pentagon? 7 Did a military transport plane control the attack on the Pentagon? 8 Was United 93 shot down? 9 Did United 93 crash? 10 Could the attacks have been prevented? 11 Criticism of the television show and it's techniques 12 Overall Analysis 13 Conclusion debunking-bbc.blogspot.com
