How photos support your own "reality"

Why do 9/11 deniers see an alternative story in pictures of the attacks? Because we all interpret images according to our biases.

    Why didn't Bush testify under oath and

    why did he need Dick Cheney holding his hand during his closed testimony? This subject pisses me off. Refuse to accept any lie of this size.

    Another writer had mentioned WTC7's collapse being reported well ahead of time by the BBC. The satellite image fades as someone realizes that the BBC reporter is reading news that hasn't quite happened yet... that the WTC7 is still visible over the shoulder of the reporter...

    Bush and Cheney knew what was scheduled to take place. So did those five Mossad/IDF agents arrested on 9/11/01 after being witnessed high-fiving one another while videotaping the WTC collapse. You remember the ones that alleged worked for that front company based in New Jersey, the one whose owner fled the country (back to Israel) leaving in a big, big rush.

    I mean, honestly, how large a mountain of details would you need to see before you accepted that 9/11/01 was scripted? Since waterboarding isn't torture according to Bush the Lesser, let's give Dick Cheney a little Gitmo vacation and see what kind of pertinent information we can extract from him.
