Blaze, thank you for your question. I haven’t heard this one about the black boxes and the wallet, so I’ll look into it.

A quick snoop around doesn’t find anything. What is the source for YOUR claim? There is so much breathtaking junk on the internet you have to tread very carefully.

A rather indepth look at most of the conspiracy claims can be read here:

Debunking the 9/11 Myths: Special Report

I have never seen a 9/11 conspiracy claim that can stand up to scrutiny. Not even close.

If the above article doesn’t swat them all down for you, post them in our freethinker forum and I’ll roast them. Easy.

I would like one thing explained about 9/11… (well, actually more than one, but this one has been fairly ignored).

When they couldn’t even find black boxes in the wreckage, how did they find Mohammed Atta’s wallet, completely intact and unharmed on top of that steaming pile of burnt metal?

Thanks for reminding us of Central/South America and the unbelievable havoc we wreaked there. Reagan’s secret Army, Navy and Air Force underwritten by US billionaires filling Swiss bank accounts. What that didn’t pay for, was made up by selling weapons to our avowed enemies. The planes that supplied the Contras returned loaded with cocaine that fed the crack epidemic.

St. Reagan and his evil minion George Bush Sr. have a lot to explain at the pearly gates. Imagine Bush explaining our first “preemptive” war.. Panama. He invaded Panama to capture the puppet that he had earlier put into power. We killed 4,000 civilians and buried them in mass graves with bulldozers. Then the US military burned several cities. Then we brought Noriega here to be tried by our laws. What was Noriega’s crime? Bush said that he was a drug dealer, but we know that the Contras were sending in the dope. I think Noriega was holding out on Bush and needed to be chastised.

Many of the Iran/Contra crowd flourished in Junior’s administration. Pondexter, Abrams, Noriega, Cheney, Negroponte. These men are war criminals and still had the public reins even while they trumped up another “preemptive” war.

If the US would finally pull its head out of its ass to pay attention, the resounding pop would register as a 7.0 earthquake on the seismic monitors.

But the 9/11 “truther” stuff kind of blows your credibility! None of that conspiracy stuff holds up to examination.

Darrel.

Nothing ticks off ignorant blowhards more than a soldier with a conscience and a brain.

Cowards, politicians, trust fund and/or dividend brats, bankers and others of the privileged class have won the war against the middle class. The electorate that keeps voting against their own best interests and the true betterment of a potentially great nation.

Some of these comments are particularly pathetic and show how effectively the oligarchy has brainwashed the masses that they can even use our patriotism against us.

Maybe an independent, self-appointed panel could take on this job. What if a group composed of distinguished veterans, respected academics and investigative reporters got some funding and set about an investigation? Of course such an investigation would lack subpoena power, but it would have more credibility than any investigation established by politicians.

KEEP THE HEAT ON!!!! You usually nail it…this is no exception.

Duffy, you want so badly for everyone to be gay so you can bash them! How do you know so much about people’s sexual preference? Are you making assumptions because of your own? Why do you want George Bush to be gay so badly? Why does it matter?

You need some help. Not everything is a conspiracy. Sometimes, it is what it is! Get a life.

You now have a fan among the nameless cowards and bigots.  We will stop getting this kind of idiocy as soon as they cut off internet access at halfway houses for sex criminals.

Actually, I might miss them.  They remind me how intelligent pets are.

Is there some kind of award we can give you?

There are discussion boards at the Bush/Pentagon website, military dot com, where the scum of the earth express their beliefs.  Now that their unelected President is in hiding, they are little but toothless cowards.

Occasionally, they roam over here.

Their evil reminds me every day why fighting for freedom is an important responsibility for every decent American, a responsibility that has to be a part of every day of our lives.

Thousands of decent Germans who stood against the Nazi’s died in the camps.

We can remember their honor and accept blame for our own crimes.

Anyone who didn’t speak up has earned a place in hell.

Without closeted gays there would be no "neocons."

thanks for you support.

No matter how hard we all try, it is the deranged bigots among us who are let loose every time we try to tell the truth about our nation – the truth about the country we all love deeply.

I’m not sure how the reaction to your exceptional article immediately degenerated to ditatribes against homosexuals. I can only believe that these nuts are sitting out there with their canned anti-"fagget" (sic) little speeches stewing in their ignorant minds.

We should be thankful that we can’t see inside the skulls of people like "American Government is a Fagg Nation". Beside finding a pea-sized brain, a true patriot would retch at the sight of what is stewing around in there, I am sure.

Your fine article raises the basic issue of the Founders, which is that we must all work toward a "more perfect union". If we don’t identify the faults, we cannot correct them. We can, of course, excuse those accidental fautls of the well-intentioned. If we don’t identify and punish those who err intentionally, however, we are not patriots, we are fools.

I know you will continue to produce these fine pieces, and will ignore the ravers, but I couldn’t resist the opportunity to both compliment you and condemn them.

As for the "fagget" question, I recently received a letter from a serving senior Army officer who said that we would all be better off if the services used their energies to drive out the homophobes, the white supremacists, the convicted felons, and the bigots. I agree.

So “Who Are” and “Fag Nation” come clean, you’ll feel better!!
