"Loose Change" But No Facts


This is a rebuttal to those fools who believe that our government "did" 9/11.  I have been told to look at the "Loose Change" video before I can get my questions answered [by a relative].  There are those that believe what this guy is touting, and there is no [and I mean] NO WAY, no matter what information you come up with will they believe anything else.  Read it.

The granddaddy of these “the U.S. government did it” fairy tales is a film called “Loose Change,” manufactured by a fellow by the name of Dylan Avery, a film he admits was inspired by the film “Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery,” and conceived while he was “high.” The fastest way anyone can debunk this film is to read the Canadian Broadcasting Company’s interview with Avery.

In that interview, Avery admits lack of foundation or proof for his assertions, and admits the existence of reliable opposing scientific opinion, admits that much of what he says is speculation, and backtracks when confronted with facts (e.g. after saying NORAD intentionally sent planes in the wrong direction in the search for the hijacked planes he then says: ”I don't want to implicate anybody without hard evidence, but it seems that NORAD and the FAA and a lot of key institutions of our government simply dropped the ball.”   (Most of us understand that “dropping the ball” is quite different from intentionally allowing 3,000 people to die.)  You can see for yourself the logical gaps (actually they’re logical canyons) in this man’s reasoning.

 

Avery claims that it was a missile, and not a plane, that hit the Pentagon. Now, I myself have spoken with people who were there and saw the plane hit, and so has Dylan Avery, as he admits.  What is his “proof’” for his claim that it was a missile? Some people who were on the scene did not see the plane. In support of this claim, he cites a Pentagon survivor who supports his theory but who, as he says, “crawled out of” the Pentagon after the attack and didn’t see the plane.
