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.

    Excellent!

    These are not the actions of an innocent victim.

    Bill, this last post of yours was on much better footing! There are a bunch of elements to the official story that are unbelievable. Just present those, as you've done, and leave the answers for those with extra investigative resources and the power of subpoena.

    In the end, we should simply point to the overall picture, and how a reasonable person would regard that: Are these the actions of innocent victims? The answer, for most people, would be "probably not." Many people pride themselves on their ability to reasonably assess a situation, even republicans. If the 9/11 truth movement were to focus on that approach, it would have a lot more success.
