There also exists a school of thought by too many in the opposition, that although 9-11 smells bad to them, they can not successfully oppose the Republican agenda by talking about it, fearing that the right will hammer them with charges of "conspiracy whackos" if they do. And indeed they will, for those who've spoken out are excoriated by responses that the term "hysterical" is not too strong to describe. Witness one Jeremy Glick's appearance on the O'Reilly factor as exemplary of the kind of treatment one can expect if they publicly implicate the government. But as long as the opposition allows itself to be cowed by these kind of tactics, they will remain crippled; forced to acknowledge the need for a "war on terror", their representatives pressured to support an agenda the nature of which always entraps them. Like their disastrous vote to allow Bush to attack Iraq, each step down the daisy path makes any chance of political extrication for the so-called "mistake" increasingly difficult, creating a political calculus of maintained artifice vs. "I went along to get along". As to which decision is chosen, we don't have to guess.
It may well be that we are so far down this ruinous path based on our own subjection to government deception that there is no longer any possibility of escape. We've started two major wars, alienated the entire world community, and provoked nations which are actually capable of causing us great harm, all on account of an event which may well have been done to us as the pretense to empire it appears to be, by our own government. Unless the point of origin for all of this is actually seriously investigated, and suspects questioned under oath, America's fate appears to have a good chance of becoming the nightmare so many of us are all having. If 9-11 was accomplished by people inside our own government, the magnitude of this crime is going to define the quanta of desperation on the part of those responsible as these subsequent events go from bad to worse. These may well be people who've already gone so far, that they will do anything to avoid exposure, including starting a global thermonuclear war to eliminate their would be accusers.
I happen to believe that 9-11 was an inside job. That has many possible definitions, ranging from TLIHOP (they let it happen on purpose) to TMIHOP (they made it happen on purpose). I believe the attacks were actually orchestrated by government operatives in conjuction with other nations, including Pakistan. I don't believe this because I want to, I don't. No one does. I believe this because despite my natural desire to see the bad guys paraded before me immediately after the attacks, the "official story" has a counterpart narrative which is far more credible, both in respect to 9-11 itself, and the historical patterns of deception engaged in by this government over the decades. Anyone who doesn't believe that high ranking officials within the United States government do not conspire to harm the people of the United States as a pretense for military actions, is someone denying facts, not "theories". From the Tuskegee Experiment, Operation Northwoods, The Gulf of Tonkin, LSD experiments on unknowing subjects, prior knowledge of Pearl Harbor, to the overt lies about weapons of mass destruction as pretense to occupy Iraq, and so many more, the government has demonstrably acted in accordance with the charge of conspiracy. These are not "theories". So what's really appears to be a theory? The notion of the pattern continuing, or the notion of the pattern being interrupted, all evidence to the contrary aside? There does come a point at which when the record is examined, there is cause to abandon the presumption of innocence as a finding precluding further investigation. What can one really say when those who opposed any independent investigation into 9-11 and attempted to block it, then refused to testify under oath? Only a fool or someone who's had their brain washed one too many times fails to find their suspicion. But that is in fact the pitiable condition which most Americans find themselves in as they're lead ever further down the path to global Armageddon on the foundation of an official story told by those who so much evidence and history points to as perpetrators of the biggest mass murder in history.
It is not my purpose here to recount the various theories which have been set forth by those who believe the government's hand is behind September 11th. Some are more plausible than others, and some are inevitably way off the mark. It is the climate of repression, the psychology of a national condition which is being imposed which I hope to shed light on, by exposing the fundamental falsity of those who would immediately leap to defend the government against the basic charge. Those who would do so find their best defense to be an engagement in debate over the details of the most improbable theories set forth, chosen by them to distract from the bigger picture they intend to obfuscate. Their success at this is only temporary, for eventually, a generation or two down the road when the paradigm no longer requires the cover-up, their shrieking at their exposure fades, and sure enough, we find out that the cover-up alleged, was rightly alleged. The problem we currently face however is that given the global nature of this conspiracy's impact, and the lethality of the weapons being readied, we can not afford to keep our heads in the sand until a new generation uncovers the crime; there just might not be a tomorrow if the lie is not challenged today.
To deny conspiracy simply because it's conspiracy is to deny a fundamental truth about human nature; We desire, we covet. And with desire begins the quest to seek advantage for gain. Human beings conspire all the time, every day. Those who exclude people in positions of power have twice engaged in an absurdity; they've denied human nature, and they've denied it in those most capable of acting. The person willing to embrace the conspiratorial world view derives no comfort in it, on the contrary, it's very uncomfortable. The motive therefor does not exist on the side of the conspiracy theorist, but with those who dismiss him. History has not been kind to them. "Conspiracy" explains the world, it's actors and human events better than randomness and it always has. Who covets? Who stood to gain? Who stood to lose? Who attempts to excuse themselves from cross examination? These are not questions generated by well placed tin-foil hats, nor are otherwise natural suspicions which arise when they're answered. To take the conspiratorial world view is simply to engage in reason as evidence presents itself in the light of known history.
Conspiracy Theories flourish where proper due process lacks
The article is very wise and it shows what can happen when the due process is not working. No Trial of 9/11- no real picture- speculations and abuses- wars-death- wrongly accused- more death- who benefits- conspiracy- more conspiracy- more war- more death- no truth...
I asked many times and I think, I will stop asking because no one helps me: why no side in the US, progressives or conservatives never asked to be the 9/11 proper investigation ( criminal) with the subsequent trial by Jury in absenthia, say of Osama Bin Ladin. Without the mechanism of trial the above chain of mine replaced it.
Judge for yourself.
Conspiracies exist. Only they are not manifested by the group of people like in X-files. The come out naturally like in Syriana. Interests rule and scum seeks for the scum. Conspiracies exist. They are called natural alliances. Humankind had invented the due process to root those out. But we do not use it anymore, do we?

The American people, as a group, lack the will to rise up and demand the truth from the Bush admin. They have been conditioned for generations, by society, parents and grandparents, and by gov't propaganda, to believe that the USA is a paradise of justice and liberty, whose leaders can do no wrong. Consequently they ignore what their own eyes and ears tell them. They do not possess the toughness and courage that the founding fathers had, they are like helpless children who cry in the dark, waiting on someone to rescue them. And so it is left to those rare ones who do have courage to try to slap them awake with truth....Instead of waiting for heroes to save us, why not be our own heroes? What it will take to turn this disaster around is to be willing to put everything we have on the line. This includes our lives. We must "be the change we wish to see in the world", and we must refuse to be discouraged by resistance, no matter how severe. Our very existence is threatened and if we sit idly by and do nothing, then we deserve to lose it. If freedom and justice are not worth dying for, then what good is living? Most people sneer when you talk about ideals as if they are possible, but in the long run, they are not only possible, they are inevitable. We cannot escape them, for they are who we truly are.

And isn't it interesting that the FBI does not list 9/11 as a reason for Bin Laden being on their "most wanted" list. They admit that there is not enough evidence to charge him with that crime.
"Usama Bin Laden is wanted in connection with the August 7, 1998, bombings of the United States Embassies in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and Nairobi, Kenya. These attacks killed over 200 people. In addition, Bin Laden is a suspect in other terrorist attacks throughout the world."
I find it interesting that while shills of the current administration attempt to "debunk" the rash of conspiracy theories generated by 911.
They maintain the most implausible one of all.
That nineteen terrorists armed only with box cutters and with the will Allah, were able to carry out such a devastating asymmetrical attack on their own, with out at least some complicity by the Military Establishment and Intelligence community.
Also another aspect that seems to be ignored is how a group of investors made out like bandits short selling AA and UA stock.

the fbi says it has no evidence OBL was behind 9/11
On June 5, 2006, the Muckraker Report contacted the FBI Headquarters, (202) 324-3000, to learn why Bin Laden's Most Wanted poster did not indicate that Usama was also wanted in connection with 9/11.
The Muckraker Report spoke with Rex Tomb, Chief of Investigative Publicity for the FBI. When asked why there is no mention of 9/11 on Bin Laden's Most Wanted web page, Tomb said, "The reason why 9/11 is not mentioned on Usama Bin Laden's Most Wanted page is because the FBI has no hard evidence connecting Bin Laden to 9/11."
Unless and until the people respond to articles like this with indignation and a demand that the syncophants in Washington pay attnetion, all is lost. How prophetic are the words of Ben Franklin when he said in response to a woman's inquiry as to what we have in the way of government, "A Republic Mam, if you can keep it." We are, after more than 200 years, about to lose it.
