I have read about it quite a bit and I can understand the evidence.
The evidence is overwhelming that Al-Qaida is responsible and there
is absolutely nothing to corroborate any US or third party conspiracy.

I just had a thought...With all the turmoil going on in the WORLD right now and all the questions and concerns facing the US right now and the upcoming election, why the h*ll are people still rehashing, debating, and arguing 9/11 conspiracy theories? It seems such a waste of time and energy...

How soon you forget the large banners "WE WILL NEVER FORGET!".....

No you are wrong again SoJ....I remember and I respect...Arguments and accusations do not equate respect in my world....

That is a contridiction of terms... I'm willing to brush it under the carpet, but I won't forget it?

That sounds a little disrespectful to the victims families who still are unsatisfied with the answers. They don't want us to forget, but it is ok to do so because you are fed up with their desires?

I don't want to sound harsh here, but that seems a little selfish on your part. I have several (I can't say "a lot") of friends who lost people that day, and they want answers they haven't gotten!

This is an unsolved murder (to their satisfaction) in their eyes, and to say they don't have a right to have questions is just wrong!

Maybe it seems that way to you because I don't believe any of the conspiracy theories...I am quite satisfied with the "official" answers...My alliance is to my country, my respect is to those who died and to the families they left behind....You believe it is unsolved and I do not ...I will leave you to discuss it with your peers..

Might I remind people of the OP's intention?

The purpose was to give each person a chance to voice his or her view without criticism or ridicule.

An open forum to see how others view this one event.

No debating. No links. No disputes over facts or evidence. No statements or opinions on another person's point of view.

Just your opinion as it applies to 9/11.

Nothing more.

Call it a social experiment of sorts.

peronally i don't even think about 911 anymore. it's number 1 on my speed dial.

seriously folks, all this talk about conspiracies, the rediculous "security" measurse we've enacted since 9/11 and the continuing idiotic rhetoric political and otherwise we keep babbling keeps giving bin laden win after win even in his watery grave. the best way to fight this jihadist crap is to get on with our lives.

al queda's single purpose was to disrupt our american way of living and we've been the best guy on their team in accomplishing their goal. recall shoe bomber richard reid. he completely failed to blow up himself and an airliner full of people but he accomplished bin laden's primary purpose. i can see the bastard sitting with his buddies in a cave somewhere pointing at his tv, laughing his *** off and saying, "hahahaha. lookit that. now the infidels will be taking their shoes off just to get on an airplane. hahahahahahahaaaaaaa."

Im speaking more specifically of terrorist attacks on AMERICAN soil, we are much more diligent in protecting american citizens in america

OKC was a crazy american, who we have much less freedom and support for investigating and whose rights make it harder to thwart ,,,,,,

There are more than likely a LIST or such 'attacks' around the world under any president , and Im not quite sure which ones earn the 'terrorist' label or not


but we do pretty well keeping AMERICAN soil safe,,,,

There is no point in discussing 9/11 any more on this site. We have hashed it and rehashed again and again. The one real evident truth is that neither side is ever going to convince the other of "their truth".

So, please....give it up already!

Those of you who believe in a conspiracy or who just want better answers, continue on with your search. Find your answers.

Meanwhile, for the rest of us life goes on. Some of us lost people on 9/11 too, and we are satisfied with what we already know. We are moving forward rather than looking back. Nothing is going to bring those we lost back from the dead, so we made our peace years ago.

What others do is their decision. They can carry on their search. But it is completely unnecessary for them to waste their energy trying to convince the rest of us. So long as they continue their search for truth - without dragging the rest of us into it - they will eventually find the answers they need....on their own. No one can make them accept the answers they find. That is up to them. The only guarantee is that they will find them, for good or for ill. And that's all the more reason to leave the rest of us out of it. It is a journey they have to complete for themselves without our interference, otherwise they may never find the closure they seek.

aw shucks, leigh. kind words.

i recently read of a study that concluded that more people have been killed because of our 'reactions' to 9/11 than were actually killed during the attack. the study saw that the increased number of people who chose to drive long distance who would normally have flown, but for the hassel of "homeland security", has resulted in an increase in trafic fatalities during the last decade that exceed those lost in the tragedy itself.

think about it folks. we keep handing these terrorists win after win everytime we enact another law that changes the way we choose to live our lives. government cannot enhance you're safety more than a tiny amount and it damn sure cannot provide you the life you had before this jihad came to america. only you can live the life you choose to live. now let's flip the bastards the finger one last time and get back to living it.

If it was that overwhelming, everyone would agree, but the fact is many don't, and for good reason.
