You guys seem to be fighting over whether or not the government was involved in 9/11, among other things, but you both need to stop focusing on the government, they are not the evil beings that are ominously controlling every aspect of our lives, you need to worry about those people in the world that truly do have the most power, because they have the most money. These are not our political leaders, they are the corporate leaders. The heads of international corporations, like world bank, look at what they have to gain in these situations.
Also, I think we need to all remember that propaganda is best avoided. Many of these movies that seem to rule the on-line conspiracists minds are very very biased, and therefore should be considered propaganda. They present you with a fact as well as the conclusion you should draw from that fact. This is not a proper way to inform. To inform is to provide the viewer/reader with unbiased facts that give an in depth explaination of all known truths of a specific topic, so that the viewer/reader can draw a conclusion. Proper informing results in similar conclusions by all people. We must use information to achieve the goals that will benefit ourselves, as well as all humans.
Yes, bring out troops home every place on earth because being isolationist really works. The fact we act in unison with the world is reason why we must support it. We our in a global society and you should recognize that the fact you were born in one of the 50 states or atleast to citizens of the US doesn't give you the right to ignore the rest of the world. The Islamic extremists dislike us because their religion tells them to. No amount of isolationism will solve that. That is called appeasement.
The "True free market" failed us. The housing market is a benefit of your true free market. Your pot plan is just as poorly thought out. You're answers aren't really answers, just half-assed plans that cannot succeed by pulling out doors closed and then praying the rest of the world wants to play fair with a country of hermits. If Ron Paul dislikes world economic views, that is all the more reason to support the opposite view. The man has yet to be right on anything more meaningful than what he ate last right.
All the government. How many terrorist groups do you know that pull off a stunt like that and then dont claim responsibility or make any requests or demands? What is the point? If we investigate this like any other crime, try and find a motive etc, then the American government has the biggest motive, and gained the most $'s from it. Also are we really saying that this big scary terrorist group pulled off something as massive as 9/11 years ago and havent managed to bomb or destroy anywhere since?...must be the security measures(!) There are too many questions with no proper investigations and the american government has been anything but open about the reports. The government didn't seem interested in investigating it and would rather the paperwork was just swept undeer the carpet. For me personally I think that clip with bush in the florida school when the first plane hit says it all - the guy isnt even suprised, he just sits and waits. I mean I know the guy is a moron but even a moron would have some sense of urgency and position in that situation. But no, bush just sits, and looks and none of the MI5 officers think - hey these terrorists are destroying the WTC could the president be in danger? Nah. Leave him sat in the open, a very easy target to any sniper. Even if you ignore all of this you can't argue with simple science. There are the top demolitions blokes in the business saying there is no way the towers could have fallen like they did and they were rigged with explosives. Even if you ignore all the terrorism propaganda you cant ignore simple science and men who know what they are talking about. I could write forever on this subject but I gotta go to work now. Perhaps have a rant another time. Cheers....
