How was the Pentagon left wide open? Did you expect the government to put an airplane-proof dome over it?
As we all know, in many cases, the government isn't very fast at responding! Doesn't mean they were "behind" it. Look how long Obama took to take action with the Gulf of Mexico oil spill.. maybe he was "behind" that!

In fact, there is not one piece of actual evidence proving that the government was behind the 9/11 attacks. Just a lot of baseless claims.

Just proves the left and right do not have any clue or.......... BOTH parties wanted to invade Iraq even if they needed to LIE to do so.

Seems to me Bush didn't mind being wrong that for sure!

If I were president I would of sent fighters up ASAP to protect the Headquarters of our Military and other important sites in DC just in case. But I guess that makes too much sense, never mind. A lot of deflection not many answers it seems.

Well with fascism/corporatism Government and Corporations walk hand in hand. BP suppling our military most of our petro needs I can see why Obama has turned a blind eye to the destruction of the Gulf. But that is a whole thread on it's own.

which lie would that be

"As a member of the House Intelligence Committee, I am keenly aware that the proliferation of chemical and biological weapons is an issue of grave importance to all nations. Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process."

Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi (Democrat, California)
Statement on US Led Military Strike Against Iraq
December 16, 1999

--------------------------

"I come to this debate, Mr. Speaker, as one at the end of 10 years in office on the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, where stopping the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction was one of my top priorities. I applaud the President on focusing on this issue and on taking the lead to disarm Saddam Hussein. ... Others have talked about this threat that is posed by Saddam Hussein. Yes, he has chemical weapons, he has biological weapons, he is trying to get nuclear weapons."

Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi (Democrat, California)
Addressing the US House of Representatives
October 10, 2002
Congressional Record, p. H7777


--------------------------------

"Saddam Hussein certainly has chemical and biological weapons. There's no question about that."

Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi (Democrat, California)
During an interview on "Meet The Press"
November 17, 2002

Want to bet?

You have exactly no clue what you would have done if you were president on that morning.

I'm getting very close to mockery, sure. But I am not yet joking.
Here, gravity was at work:

Apparently, gravity doesn't always cooperate. Imagine that!

This is the reason that you pay lots of money to demolitions experts who know how to destroy buildings in a "controlled" manner. Gravity just isn't enough.
