He had me until "failure to elect". Lemme recount some of the major events in America from the past few years.

2000: The American people elected Al Gore, George Bush was made president by the people who actually run the country

2001: A bunch of 'terrorists' operating under orders from Osama bin Laden, a known CIA asset, hijacked four planes and successfully flew three of them into certain important buildings, two of which collapsed in a highly sketchy manner, then another that wasn't even hit collapsed mysteriously, "due to fire". This all happened the same day NORAD was running an exercise simulating several passenger jets being hijacked. All three buildings that collapsed were leased and insured to Larry Silverstein at the time, who said during an interview on public access television that they made the decision to 'pull' building 7, contrary to the official 9-11 commission's report ("due to fire").

The controversial USA PATRIOT Act is passed, which makes unconstitutional surveillance, search and seizure perfectly legal, as long as someone says 'zomg terrorist'

2003: The United States defies the United Nations and invades Iraq, using phantom 'Weapons of Mass Destruction' as the pretense, or maybe it was because Saddam Hussein was harboring Al Qaeda leaders who helped plan the 9-11 attack (wave that flag, sheep!)... we never really got a good answer, we got celebrity news on all of the major news channels instead, and people just kinda forgot about it.

2004: Bush's main opponent in the presidential elections is also his cousin, and was also a member of the Skull and Bones club. More celebrities on major news channels.

And so on and so forth, etc, etc.

A Message from the Citizens of the US to John Cleese:
You are a c**t.

John Cleese is the best comedian that has ever, and will ever live. You sir, are the c**t.

"2. The letter 'U' will be reinstated in words such as "favour" and "neighbour." Likewise, you will learn to spell "doughnut" without skipping half the letters, and the suffix -ize will be replaced by the suffix -ise. Generally, you will be expected to raise your vocabulary to acceptable levels. (look up "vocabulary")."

QFT. I can't put enough emphasis on this one.

"collapsed mysteriously". The Pentagon?
"sketchy" Do you mean messy?

Being funny doesn't excuse one from being a c**t.

Don't call me a c**t.

Building 7, part of the World Trade Center that was down the street and had a small amount of debris fall on it, then 'collapsed from fire'.

Sketchy as in dodgy, suspicious. The twin towers were designed to be very hard to bring down, other less well-designed buildings have burned uncontrollably for days and didn't fall. Structural steel doesn't even begin to soften at the temperatures present in the twin towers, and even if fire did weaken the supports enough for both buildings to collapse, they would have fallen over, not inward and downward, as they did.

Yes sir. And I totally agree with you, Baron Von.

Another good video is 911 Mysteries or Terror Storm or The Myth and the Reality by David Lee Griffin.

What's really scary about 9-11 is that so many people still believe that it was done by guys controlling it from a cave. That is such BS!

Here's a good question for those who still don't think 911 was an inside job: If the government is so worried about terrorism, why are our borders wide open?




Condemnation without Investigation is the Highest Form of Ignorance!

Oh my God, this was about a funny article by John Cleese, and you've somehow turned it into another bulls**t 911 conspiracy theory thread.

i doubt that this has anything to do with john cleese, as he's educated enough to know that -ize is normally the prefered english spelling. he's usually funny, too.

I knew what u meant. I just said that because i couldn't think of a reason why you would say that, but those do should like good reasons to believe what you do. I don't want to stare a debate over this but i wonder what temperature you would have to reach to weaken the beams enough to fail.

Yeah, and with the current regulations popping in you'd think the States didn't see the difference between the border up here and down there.

I gotta tell you:

  1. American cars are great. If you cite the "Ford Pinto" or the "Gremlin" as an american car, I'm gonna throw the "Yugo" and the "Renault" in your face.
  2. America dropped the U from words because "Armour" is a french spelling. 'Nuff said.
  3. Redwood... It was not just that someone dumped some jet-fuel on the floor and it all melted... There was a PLANE that CRASHED into the building. there was an EXPLOSION. The weight from the plane and the concussion from the explosion knocked one floor out, it fell on the next one, and so on and so forth. It's not a conspiracy, it's a plane... and it exploded.
