His Son Is Working for the Daily Mail...

Which bites off a big chunk of woo:

Called Loose Change, the film is a blitz of statistics, photographs pinched from the web, eyewitness accounts and expert testimony, all set to hip-hop music. And it is dramatically changing the way people think about 9/11.

A recent poll by the respected New York Times revealed that three out of four Americans now suspect the U.S. government of not telling the truth about 9/11. This proportion has shot up from a year ago, when half the population said they did not believe the official story of an Al Qaeda attack.

The video claims the Bush administration was, at the very least, criminally negligent in allowing the terrorist attacks to take place. It also makes the startling claim that the U.S. government might have been directly responsible for 9/11 and is now orchestrating a cover-up.


Hmmm, I didn't know that Dylan's movie was LIHOP; you learn something new every day. :)

The article mixes and matches Loose Change and David Ray Griffin; a somewhat oddball combination, but then again the Loosers are having DRG review their script, according to Dylan's appearance the other day on Alex Jones' paranoia show.

Initially, like most people in America, Professor Griffin dismissed claims the attacks could have been an inside job.

It was only a year later, when he was writing a special chapter on American imperialism and 9/11 for his latest academic tome, that the professor was sent a 'timeline' on the day's events based entirely on newspaper and television accounts. It was then that he changed his mind.

And one of the most puzzling anomalies that he studied was that none of the hijacked planes was intercepted by fighter jets, even though there was plenty of time to do so and it would have been standard emergency procedure in response to a suspected terrorist attack.


Suspected terrorist attack? Try suspected hijacking. And get this:

Readers of The New Pearl Harbour and viewers of Loose Change are reminded that it was 7.59am when American Airlines Flight 11 left Boston. Fifteen minutes later, at 8.14am, radio contact between the pilot and air traffic control stopped suddenly, providing the first indication that the plane might have been hijacked.

Flight 11 should have been immediately intercepted by fighter pilots sent up from the nearby McGuire Air Force Base in New Jersey. They could have made the journey to the World Trade Centre in three minutes.


Because, of course, the moment a Boston plane was hijacked, the Air Force should have known it was headed for the World Trade Center. And McGuire's a heck of a lot longer than 3 minutes from NYC (it's about 15 miles south of Trenton), and does not appear to have fighter jets:

The 305th Air Mobility Wing, and several tenant organizations including the 21st Air Force and the Air Mobility Warfare Center are based at McGuire. Using C-141B Starlifters, KC-10 Extenders, and KC-135 Stratotankers, McGuire missions support the transportation of troops, passengers, equipment, cargo, mail, and provides aerial refueling throughout the world. McGuire personnel and aircraft participate in worldwide relief efforts frequently.

I do so love when articles reprint the claims of these nuts without pointing out that they're wrong.

I dont know who is the bigger nut, the CTers he writes on, or the writer of the article himself. He seems to buy into the shaite.

Because you know in the pre 9/11 days the very instant that contact is lost with any plane a hijacking is immediately suspected...come on. This guy is an idiot of a journalist.

This "Sue Reid" (author of the "review") is an absolute imbecile. However, at least most of the comments are sarcastic!

Three out of four people... gah. It's good to know that the Daily Wail's standards of journalism and fact-checking haven't diminished since I last read that paper.

Anyone who thinks that The NY Times is anything but a rotten Marxist anti-American and anti-Semitic rag is delusional, right off the bat.
