I heard stats saying between 20-40% of the US population is convinced the US goverment was either directly involved, indirectly involved or knew about it and allowed it to happen.
Add in the fence sitters who are still out on the verdict and leaven it with a few more years of time and if on this very day 50% of the US population does not subscribe to this then it will be soon-- ala the JFK assassination, which initially was believed to be a consipracy by only 20% or less but which now 70% of Americans believe was a consipracy.
It certainly does not help that this government acts so weirdly, Dem and Rep both. 700 page PatRot Act written in mere days? I. DON'T. THINK. SO. Voted upon without being read first? Makes sense. Anomalous anthrax mailings during that time that can only have come from one Army lab outside Washington? Standing down the military jets? Structurally sound buildings housing NYC CIA HQ collapsing on their own? Flight schools run by the CIA training these very Arab guys in Fla? Mossad agents recording the event in real time from the Jersey side and jumping up and down in glee? Dozens of people in gov't being warned not to fly on the morning of 9/11? PNAC posting on the internet the need for a new "Pearl Harbor"?
It all begins to make sense. People in the US ARE mostly dumb as fuck, but they are not THAT dumb.
