Will the truth ever be confirmed about 9/11?

By now, for most people the memory of 9/11 is probably sealed away in the back of their unconscious mind. Only to be remembered every year when that day comes around and we are reminded about what happened that day. Most of us probably accepted what we saw on T.V. about how it happened and how George W. Bush said terrorist were to blame and what not. But what facts did they give us to solidify what they told us? How do we know they can be trusted? I guess it should seem obvious that the people should trust their own president. Because God forbid how America would react if somehow we discovered there was this huge top secret cover up where high government officials actually knew about, or even worse, helped with 9/11 and just used it as an incentive to invade the Middle East.

That's what some people have been trying to figure out for the past 7 years now. And from what I've read, these are just a very few points that got my attention. There have been a large amount of military, intelligence, and government officials that have criticized the 9/11 Commission Report to be tragically flawed. Some of their reports can be found here. The explanations that the media fed us on how the towers collapsed have been proven to be lies. The fires created by the jet fuel could not have reached temperatures high enough to cause the UL-rated steel to fail. And What about WTC 7? A plane didn't even fly into that tower, and yet it collapses after 1 and 2, because of a fire? I don't think so. I guess we could always just take Larry Silverstein's word for it, who was the leaseholder of WTC 7. He confessed on tape he had the building demolished to prevent the spreading of fire. Engineers and architects have said that the towers collapses were due to controlled demolition, judging by how the towers fell. Which would probably explain the material that looked like thermite found at all three ground zeroes, which has the ability to reach temperatures that allow it to cut right through steel. One of the main things that really bugs me though is this. When the towers we being attacked, George W. Bush was in a school classroom and when TOLD the towers were under attack he just nodded and said, " We're going to go ahead with the reading lesson." Where he then continued to interact with the students and teacher. One would think the secret service would have taken him to a safe spot immediately, since you know, a school wouldn't have been exactly the safest place to be at the time, and you would probably be putting the children and teachers lives in danger as well. But no instead he took his sweet time and afterwords went on national T.V. interview that had been announced and planned in advance.

Remember those were just a few things I found that grabbed my attention. There are many more resources on the web that carry information which show 9/11 could have possibly been a cover up. Reading about it and watching it all add up was a scary thing. I'd like to believe what I have been these past seven years which is that the terrorist were solely responsible and the US had nothing to do with it, but there are so many theories that point in the other direction. It's hard to believe that high powered US officials could have been involved in 9/11, and that our government could be partially to blame for all the lives lost. Just so we could have a real reason to go fight overseas, and not just for the oil. But there are people who have lived on this earth who have met that level of cruelness before. So with all that said, I don't think the real truth will ever come out if it hasn't already yet, and 9/11 may just remain a deep dark secret of America forever, if it ever was a secret to begin with. We may never know. On the bright side, if the government did lie to all of us. We can all rest in peace that Bush is almost out of the oval office. HIP HIP HURRAY

Attacking our Own?

Surely you are not suggesting or even implying that the government of the United States of America would purposefully attack one of the largest trade centers in the country. No way you could suggest that they would purposefully murder more than 3,000 men and women. Would they really go through all that trouble to secure oil and somehow miraculously forcing oil prices to skyrocket to well above four dollars a gallon?

As for the president seemingly taking no action upon hearing news of the attacks. Do you really expect him to jump up and run to the nearest janitor's closet infront of a classroom of children and dozens of reporters. Should he flee from the room causing a mass panic across the media triggering a nationwide panic. Personally I would like my leader to take his time and consider his options and choose the one most appropriate to the situation.

A leader should not act out of fear, rather he should move upon his reason and fair judgment.

To simply answer the first part of your comment. Yes I am suggesting that they knew it was coming, if not taking part in the act itself.

As for your respose on the reasoning of the presidents actions. I did not want to imply that he should have acted out of fear, but that he should have taken IMMEDIATE action. Because I assume that by the time footage of the burning trade towers appeared on tv was when the nationwide panic started. So what do we do next? We look to see what our president is doing....OH LOOK... he's still reading to kids even though he was told there was an attack on the world trade centers. Looks like it wasn't a big deal to him. Or maybe, since the element of surprise was already out of the picture, he just didn't know how to react the situation since he knew it was coming. Therefore, he decided that the best thing to do was to continue promoting his reading program to little kids, and then do a photo-op! I'm sorry, but which one seems more important... honestly.
