TRUTHERS TALES
Right before the first day
of fall, ‘Ol Remus in the Woodpile Report had disdainful things to say about
the 9/11 “Truthers”. Summarizing, he
acknowledged anomalies in the Official Truth but called the storyline of the
Truthers Tedious Bunk. He also likened
9/11 conspiracy theories as fireside tales told to Pakistani children. “Look how they destroy their own city and
blame it on us“. I wasn’t a hundred
percent sure how to take his comments and read it over a few more times. As far as I can tell, Remus was saying if an
ignorant peasant approved of the 9/11 conspiracy theory, it must be false
because us White Folk in civilized societies think much more rationally ( I
could be wrong on these assumptions and if true tender my apologies before hand
). As to his other point, I too find the
stories told by Truthers to be much ado about diddly squat. I mean, who friggin cares if the plane was
remote controlled or never had passengers or whatever. All I know is that the Truth According To The
Feds is complete and utterly false. I
could care less how they pulled it off-I just know that the official
explanation are blatant lies.
*
I’m not sure if ‘Ol Remus
is tired of hearing about the conspiracy, or if he disbelieves it
completely. I know a lot of bloggers
refuse to even discuss the issue. There
seems to be largely two camps. One loves
the government because they think that is the same as loving your country and
believes what they are told and the other can only believe the very worst of
the government. Or, again, just like
poser preppers or real survivalists, the difference is between optimists and
pessimists. I’m firmly in the school of
crediting government with actively attempting to screw us constantly and
habitually lying about it. I don’t
really care HOW they lie to us. Was the
Maine blowing up in Havana a boiler explosion?
Did we provoke the Spanish in firing on us? Who cares?!
It is enough to know that the weakest empire around with choice
territories we wanted to steal needed to be blamed for an act of
aggression. Details are minor notes of
interest, and they do serve a purpose in bringing over non-believers to the
pessimists camp. But it doesn’t matter
which scenario actually took place. It
only matters who benefited.
*
It might be interesting to
know that the passenger liner torpedoed by the Germans was actually full of
munitions and so in a violation of international law and hence not a war crime
to be sunk. Or not. Even if it wasn’t true, Wilson was going to
get us involved in WWI somehow or another.
The Bankers demanded it. And even
if they didn’t, our march towards empire did.
Who benefits? While I’m certain
of the culpability of our elite lords and masters, I could care less if I can
prove HOW they screwed us. It is enough
to know that there is a far higher probability of a conspiracy theory being
true when the accused benefits, as opposed to the far lower odds of the rich
and powerful only being here to serve the interests of the common volk. Wasn’t the initial smear campaign against
conspiracy theorists conducted by the CIA itself? Wow, there’s a whole bunch of folks you can
trust your bank account and your daughters virginity to.
*
I believe it is quite
healthy to be mistrustful of our leaders ( and the institutions they lead. I have ZERO belief another person will act
any different than the current one. When
you think an agencies behavior is merely due to “a few bad apples”, and yet one
bad apple after another keeps up the same poor behavior, and the institution
does nothing to stop the NEXT bad apple from doing the same, it just might be
time to blame the group itself ). I don’t
need to “prove” that 9/11 was a conspiracy.
It is so flipping obvious it scares me that people can buy into the
official version. Hello, can you say “third
tower pancakes”, or “NO debris outside the Pentagon”? I mean, seriously, dude. Do I have “proof” that there were Manchurian
Candidates? Of course not. Do I care how they were programmed? Not especially. If it was LSD, I want some of that
stuff! Does it matter how the other
Kennedy and MLK were killed? Not really,
but it seems pretty obvious, IF you are paranoid and mistrustful, that the
official story is bullspit.
*
Nobody should be asking
you to buy into their theories 100%. If
you have the necessary skepticism to believe in a conspiracy in the first
place, that should follow over into not being hooked by any one detail of said
theory. It should just be enough to keep
an open mind and not believe ANYONE, whether government apologist or Fed
Hater. I’m convinced that FDR drug us
into WWII by trickery, just as Wilson did in the earlier war. In the first world war, the bankers profited
nicely. In the second, we stole the
global empire from England, AND saved our economy. Are you telling me that both those results
weren’t so important that our leaders wouldn’t resort to trickery to
achieve? I don’t care if FDR pushed the
Japs into attacking us by embargoes or not.
It seems obvious, so I accept it as Probable Enough. How is that an impossibly conspiracy theory? Why is it impossible to believe that
sacrificing a small amount of obsolete warships in exchange for a huge surge in
manufacturing capacity to rescue the economy, AND keeping those factories
humming after the war for a global market is an impossibility?
*
How is it possible to be
so rabidly anti-conspiracy theory that you are willing to suspend belief in the
laws of physics? A couple of drops of
kerosene splattered from a nearby impact cause an entire building to come
crashing down? Really? I’ve never noticed steel frame buildings
falling down from being on fire, ever, anywhere. But since a Yankee carpetbagger who claimed
to have Found The Lord said it by gum happened on his watch, it is suddenly “a
thing”? Does anyone remember how much
money was spent after 9/11? How about
the money made off of the crash itself?
WHO BENEFITS? Think for yourself,
people.

Great article today James. Yeah, I got called a “truther” one time by my Glenn Beck watching brother. I didn't even know what the hell that was at the time. His go to counter argument to all these things is that I must get all of this obviously false and whacky information from those “political blogs” that I visit. Funny thing is, I'm not sure if I've ever even been to a political blog before?
ReplyDeleteI guess if you can spot a bullshit story a mile away, you had best keep it to yourself for fear of having an undesirable label slapped on you. This sort of dovetails along with today's comment that I posted in Friday's post.
Personally though, I prefer to err on the side of caution and trust absolutely none of the official reports that come from our representatives. You have nothing to lose, and perhaps everything to gain.
I hope we never come to a time we are jailed for disagreeing with the official narrative. Like Europeans on Muslims or Halocaust ( sp) deniers.
DeleteBeen reading Remus since the beginning and that 911 comment was bothersome and seemingly out of character for him. Don't know what to make of it.
ReplyDeleteThe constitution is a set of rules for the politicians to follow but it is woefully lacking in penalties for infractions. Imagine if there were no penalties for infractions at your job, would anything functional get done? Would you rip the place blind? Maybe you wouldn't but plenty of other people would.
Regardless, it's a document that has nothing to do with me. I understand implicitly this country is slammed with criminals from top to bottom and I have shaped my existence in such a way that I hopefully stay out of their scope.
Yah, I love Remus. And I too was a bit butt hurt. I'm hoping it was just miscommunication. If not, oh well. It isn't like I care too much about how many I offend, right?:)
DeleteNOTE: second paragraph, I had meant "boilers" and have changed that. Good proof-reading, eh?
DeleteNever even noticed. lol
DeleteI didn't notice through the first two readings.
DeleteA structural steel beam will sag and collapse in a fire before a wooden beam rated for the same load will. This shouldn't be construed as an attack on the rest of your article, just a factual correction.
ReplyDeletePeace out
Right, doesn’t the fire char the outside and so protect the innards? Of course, finding that big of a piece of wood outside a log cabin…
DeleteThis is due to "massing" and is probably not a factual declaration as it has never been applied.
DeleteWood, designed to carry the same load as steel would be 20 times or more, larger. Cost is the determination. Except for aesthetics, why would anyone choose 20X as much wood as steel?
In over 3000 designed buildings I have only chosen wood over steel because of aesthetics. They were 16" x 24" douglas fir beams 40' long in the ceiling of a custom home I designed for the 3rd baseman for the Boston Red Sox's 11,000 sq ft home. There were 8 of those beams in that 2nd floor roof over the living room and they cost over $40k with shipping. I could have spec'd wide flange steel wrapped in doug fir for less than $10k. But you can't argue with people that have more $$$ than IQ.
Back to the orig topic. A wooden beam capable of carrying the same load as steel will be able to lose about 1/4 of it's massing due to fire before it would collapse. If I designed the structure it would probably about 1/2 because I tend to over engineer stuff, especially things I have never done before. That's why none of my building have suffered a structural failure.
I think Over Engineering is a sound practice. I wonder how much is done in today's penny pinching/govt. mafia contractor building.
DeleteSpeaking about "truthers" instead of speaking about the 9/11 events is not only pointless, it's helping the perpetrators.
ReplyDeleteChildren born that year are now 15 years old. They don't even know a third tower collapsed that day etc.
People who were 15 back then (an age when you start to understand the news) are now 30. I'm convinced that every person now aged 30 or more has had at least one opportunity of genuinely learning about these events, because after all more than 50% of the population disbelieve the official version.
Three main reasons to still stick to the official version :
- not interested or unable to understand
- understanding but in denial
- understanding but preserving one's interests (no trouble with the state or the media, maintaining a customer base made out of stupid people - which is a much more profitable customer base than intelligent people)
I think over 50% of the population believe in UFO's, so that isn't a lot of comfort.
DeleteI think over 75% of the population believes in make believe super hero's so it is worse than you thought.
DeleteIn many ways man is still a very primitive creature and his current folly is arrogantly believing he can harness technology indefinitely. Don't hold your breath as it has been cracked all along the perifery from the beginning and the fault lines look like grand canyons.
And 90% of survivalists/preppers seem to believe in Fracking Forever.
DeleteJust because something happened partially the way it is said to have happened doesn't mean the whole story is true.
ReplyDeleteI saw the planes fly into the towers. admittedly on TV but it was supposedly live TV at the time.
I don't doubt that planes may have been flown into the towers. Possibly organized by the jihadist nut case that had tried to blow them up before. But it also isn't a stretch to think that some small group could have reasonably predicted something similar and prepared for it and arranged to profit from it. Isn't it interesting that they killed the supposed mastermind and got rid of the body so quickly? What might he have said to skilled interrogators'?
But in the end it doesn't matter, stay skeptical of all the official lines, and be ready to jump out of the way should an official party line start lining up in your direction.
Hah! Love the last line.
DeleteThe best part of all of it was that in spite of jumbo jets exploding inside some of the largest buildings in the world and reducing them to 1000's of tons of rubble the US gov't passports of the supposed criminals managed to survive and be found.
DeleteTHAT alone, for me, undermines everything else.
It is not physically possible for me to believe the gov'ts story, ever.
Oklahoma City did give us time to research govt. BS, so we were ahead of the game.
DeleteYou're trying to push my buttons aren't you?
DeleteI was a demolitions specialist in the army.
There is no way in hell that truck sitting along the street did THAT to that building. period.
It might have blown some of the decorative items off the front, for show, but the bulk of what is seen in the popular pics was done from inside, or at the very least, attached right to the front of the structure and concealed some how. It would have required TONS of explosives accurately placed to have done that.
Even 20 tons of C4 in that truck wouldn't have done what you seen.
Further, if someone took the time to accurately place the charges why didn't they take the whole building down?
Remember, blow 2 legs off the 4 legged table and the whole thing comes down. Use the weight of the structure to your advantage.
In my evaluation of the popular pics the whole thing was hastily and poorly set up without much fore thought by barely competent people, which, if you think about ALL the gov't people you have ever encountered, is SOP.
Maybe one of them incomps is the owner of that extra foot that was found but never identified the next block over.
"hastily and poorly set up". Like, the JFK assassination, as well as the cover-up. Good thing most could care less.
DeleteGod, help us! please!
ReplyDeleteHe's busy.
