Americans have changed, first from what liberals did by brainwashing half of us into thinking we were something we weren’t trading our souls in for social validation. Now were getting it from conservatives who had complained for years about creeping American socialism but are now the most outspoken about how their way seeing the world is the only way to see reality while all those who miss that mark simply just don't get what being an American is all about.

What is an American?

Being an American is being yourself. The whole idea of government is un-American. Government is an unfortunate necessity in any social equation that even Americans have to put up with. That was the political view of conservatives in the 80s and 90s. Now government is the glue that holds both political parties and their followers together.

So what happened to freedom?

Freedom has taken on its old meaning from when royal families ruled mankind. It’s now something enjoyed by whoever is in power. But I liked living in old-school America where if someone had asked the question of where the footage of the victims of 911 falling to their deaths went, they would have gotten an answer. But in that America, the question would never have come up. That’s because those images would have been everywhere we looked and we would have all been properly outraged. Even during the liberal years when we all become too sensitive to view such a thing, there still would have been endless stories memorializing how we’re just too humane to allow ourselves to hate our enemies as bad as reality demands it.

I’m all alone in this quest for answers

I bet after reading this article, even the conspiracy theorist who’ve tried to make Bush out as having something to do with murdering thousands of people on September 11, 2001 will now call me a delusional conspiracy theorist for thinking that the buildings were empty when the attack happened. But I don’t have a theory. I just want to know what happened to the footage of the people falling off the World Trade Centers, that’s it. There’s a story there somewhere that no one has covered and I want to know what it is. I’ve asked about it but all I get is treated like I’m an idiot for not seeing how obviously stupid a question it is. But it’s a serious question no matter how you twist it.

There has to be a reason why this aspect of the 911 attacks have never been shown or publicly debated. What is it?

It must have cost a lot of money to edit the falling victims out of live video with so much confusion going on around what happened. It must have also cost a considerable amount of media prestige to not stand up and take a bow for having collectively agreed to never bridge the topic before the public either. I mean not even one reporter who has run out of things to write about over the past 7 years decided it was time to tell the falling body story while no family members has ever stood up demanding that the images be shown to remind us of the horrors of terrorism when support for the war on terror was waning.

It’s odd if you ask me. I thought I was dreaming when I first couldn’t find the bodies falling. But everyday after that, I still woke up in a world where there were no images of people falling from the World Trade Centers.

The war still goes on past 911’s seventh anniversary but still no answers to my question have surfaced, only more questions about what the war is really all about. So here is my question to throw into the mix with all the other conspiracy theories. I really think it deserves a serious answer.

Were the 911 attacks part of a government conspiracy like so many people believe? 

It certainly could have been. Governments have committed attacks against their own institutions as an excuse to get support for unpopular wars in the past. Hitler did it with great success. But no government has ever pretended bring down an empty building to get support for a war. That’s a new one. And I can’t really fathom it being possible but it certainly cannot be impossible if conservatives continue to dismiss with debate accusations that the attacks were part of a Bush scheme as being nothing unpatriotic.

If Hitler hadn’t done it already, it would still be possible that the attack originated on our soil, it would just mean Bush would be the first to have tried it. But the fact that we know it has happened in the past justifies questions about it having happened again. So dismissing those question without openly vetting the issue gives me serious concerns for it possibly being true. But no matter what the truth is, I still want to know the story behind the footage of the falling bodies unless someone can come up with a plausible scenario for what happened to all those people if they were not in the building when it was attacked. It’s a simple question with a simple answer unless it’s something far more complex. And I can’t imagine what that could be.
