Oh you read that shit right… Papa Mitch is tackling my generations big conspiracy theory, and the perspectives on both sides.
I first heard about the different theories on what happened September 11th 2001 when I was in college in the fall of 2005. Another college filmmaker like myself living in New York had the idea of making a fictional film that the 911 attacks were engineered by the United States itself. Once they started researching for the writing of the movie they said the information they found was so disturbing and unusual they went from fiction, to non-fiction. Firmly believing they stumbled upon information that 911 was an inside job they were some of the pioneers of the 911 truth movement which has really spawned a gigantic following online.
If your curious about Dylans film, feel free to check out his site. His film and site include more facts than I can remember about the 911 attacks. http://www.loosechange911.com/
To me the 911 truth movement was very thought provoking in 2005 before it became more main stream. Then
things the movement began saying were almost completely circumstantial and hearsay. ‘A pod came off the plane as it crashed’ which quickly was disbanded and edited out of Dylans documentary. Or certain politicians were notified not to fly on September 11th because of a possible terrorist attack (they say this with no proof but online articles). Yet some things they stumbled upon were definitely scary. News footage from the day of 911 had multiple people saying they heard explosions before the collapse of the world trade center towers, multiple news anchors flat out stated ‘Explosions have been reported from inside the twin towers’. The pentagon airplane crash is just a big hole with no marks from a planes tail section, or wings, or engines, with almost no plane wreckage. Looking, and seeming almost exactly like a missile impact. The plane crash in Pennsylvania left literally no debris, vaporizing the plane. By the way, a plane has never ‘vaporized’ upon an impact with the earth leavin no bodies, or debris except this one time. These aren’t just things people in ‘the movement’ have said or pushed forward in their agenda, they are just facts sitting right in front of your face.
Does some of this info say without a doubt the US, or other secret organization attacked itself to push forward monumental change in foreign and domestic policies? I can honestly say I don’t know. I cant say yes, but in good conscience cant say no either. There are way too many coincidences, and way too many perfectly executed reactions to 911. There are records and proof that massive amounts of put-options were purchased a week before 911 on several different airlines. A put-option is basically a stock purchase saying a company is going to have massive losses, and business difficulties. The owner of the World Trade Center also took out a massive insurance policy on the towers just weeks before specifically covering terrorist attacks. These things are readily available to view as part of public domain, and the coincidences are fucking insane.
So the question is, what the hell happened on 9-11? I wont pretend to know… But what I do know is that things don’t add up, and there are too many ‘coincidences’. Just because Im undetermined on what happened doesn’t mean I believe every psychotic crackpot conspiracy theory. Which is what many media outlets want people to believe for some reason. Anyone that questioned 911 soon after the attacks was anti-American… Anyone that questioned 911 a few years after was a rebel, and stumbling upon massive amounts of unusual information. NOW, you’re a fucking whack job. People are displayed as whackos with schizophrenia or something because they question the actual story. Im not out there in peoples faces screaming CONSPIRACY.. I simply question the hole-filled story we were given.
There are many people capitalizing on the Truth movement and writing articles, making films, organizing protests etc and for some reason they are overly aggressive, and sound dumb. Its almost like its staged at times… But if you do get curious and try to wade through all the bullshit that’s come out the past couple years, you find facts that really make you think.
The Discovery Channel and History Channel have both aired different specials taking on the 911 conspiracy theorists and their ideas. After knit picking out certain aspects of truth movement beliefs, they disproved multiple ideas, and oddly enough everything they happened to choose was disproved. Yet they didn’t tackle every fact or bit of information, merely the science of the attacks. Like the jet fuel heat, the freefall of the towers, etc.
I like to get all the information I can with something this huge, but we have only scraped the surface. The JFK assassination is all but true in most peoples eyes… I have a feeling 911 may develop into its own folklore.
Tell me what you think… what are your thoughts? Is it all bullshit? If so, why? You have more to add?
