Suckers!

Dylan put the following video up on his blog today, apparently thinking this is great evidence:



The big news here is that Jack Kelley claims that his sources told him that the FBI thought that as the planes hit the WTC towers, that trucks packed with explosives went off at the same time. Intriguing story, and it may even be true that was an early theory. But....

As I mentioned the other day, neither James nor I have commented on Dylan's girlfriend on this blog, despite his paranoid claims to the contrary. Why? Because she's irrelevant to the topic we're discussing. Dylan himself is frequently irrelevant; he's not the issue here, it's the outrageous claims he makes in his movie. Unlike, say, Eric Hufschmid, I don't care if he goes out drinking with his buddies at the end of a long day. I did too when his age.

But here's a case where I'd say that Dylan's relative youth is relevant, because he's obviously not been a news consumer for a long time. Nobody who's been paying attention the last couple of years would link to a video where Jack Kelley of USA Today makes interesting claims about what "sources" told him. Why? Because he was fired from his job at USA Today for making up sources!

When neither the newspaper nor Kelley could verify a story he reported in Belgrade in 1999, Kelley essentially invented a witness to corroborate the account, the editors said in a statement published on the newspaper's Web site.

What's next, citing Jayson Blair and Stephen Glass?

God, what a nutbar Conner is. Have you seen the video where he runs out into traffic while shouting "9-11 was an inside job!"? Not to be missed.

When I first heard that Oliver Stone was directing a film about 9/11 , I was overjoyed. I thought that Oliver Stone would blow the lid off the 9/11 Inside Job to the masses in a historic cinematic event toping his ‘JFK’ (1991) which would send shockwaves throughout the world and make Fahrenheit 9/11 look like a Bush campaign add in comparison.

Heh. Problem is, the JFK CT at least had a semi-logical theory about what happened and in what order it happened. Might have been wrong, but at least it seemed plausable nad had a structured flow to it. Whereas the 9/11 CT shouldn't even really be called a "theory" because none of the CT nuts can agree on what actually happened. Therefore even if Oliver Stone wanted to make a movie from the CT viewpoint, and even if he could figure out how to take a handful of theories and put them into a semi-logical seeming theory...what exactly would he film? No matter how he structures the film, 80% or more of the CT movement will be pissed that he didn't include THEIR pet theories, or that he included "obviously wrong" theories.

I just want to thank Dylan Avery for showing us yet again that his generation (the one I'm part in, unfortunately) shows their lack of perception skills and take anything from the media as face-value without question.

I'm officially at a loss. Are we, or are we not, supposed to trust mainstream media?

KT? Nessie? Dylan? (is that you?)

What bothers me about Conners comments, is that he calls the film garbage, and iluminati propaganda, yet the vast majority of the film is about two men, two firefighters who faught to save people on 9/11 REGARDLESS of who caused the events of the day.

Conners, you can feel betrayed and go cry to mommy because your former hero didn't make a slick version of LC for you, but you have no right to defame or slander the courageous efforts of those two men portrayed in the film.

They most likely lied us into 2 wars.

Joan, I'm gonna let you in on a little secret. Afghanistan was inarguably justified. No ifs, ands, or buts.

Well, its all over the news the last few days that Hezbollah is MORE capable than Al Qaeda ever was and that Hezbollah has cells all over the world. So which is it. Really, they'll say anything (our government and media), whatever they think helps the vicious murdering plan they want to accomplish at the time.


Uh Joan does the government coordinate all the attacks? They must be pretty busy with 5000+ in the past five years. Both groups have cells elsewhere, but when's the last time Hizbollah killed 3000 people in one day? They seem content in lobbing rockets at border towns to kill children unprovoked.

But see, if you've convinced yourself that the CIA hired the Kibbler Elves to knock down the WTC, then it makes perfect sense to beleive that we were lied in to the war in Afghanistan.

Well thanks for the great breakdown, Superman, but I have one question: why weren't YOU saving metropolis on 9/11?
