But it's quite interesting to note, especially if you read a lot of the threads in the Politics forum on here, that the paranoia also exists in the USA too.
Note all the truther/birther/black helicopters/whatever theories

I'm from the UK, we also distrust and largely despise our government, but in a totally different way that in America

Please, read the thread before you post any more.

Your statement is so wide of the mark it's unreal.

Paranoia came from real life. Cuz we been f***d over a lot by our authorities, and we don't trust nobody. Slight paranoia is not bad though. Keeps me alert.
Again, I am not a conspiracy theorist or whatever, I am not saying 100% inside job, but I really wouldn't be surprised if in 50 yrs we find out it was. And poitics are dirty everywhere, no difference here or Russia.

again you are repeating lies of the twoofers

all material went to Staten Island to the Freshkills land-fill where is was PROCESSED and SIFTED through for all evidence...some things were 'shipped' off..like some WTC steel is used in the battleship New York...many beams are ALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY (where they can EASILY be TOUCHED and tested) for 911 memorilas...plus an entire hangar at JFK airport (hangar17) IS FULL of the 'evidence" and is huge

All right, so even if it's like this, are you saying it is impossible that there was something else going on that we don't know about? I am not even saying it is necessarily an inside job, basically I am saying they are not telling everything.

It's even simpler than that.

The frame rate of any video directly correlates to the size of the disk or tape necessary to hold it. So security cameras deliberately have slow frame rates to store longer periods of time in the same space.

That's my point. If they are not telling this, they could be withholding/lying on many things.

First, it was the stupid card.

Now, it's the under financed card.

The system would never have been designed to capture something moving at 500+mph.
Yeah, and forget radar, man.
