11/9 Self-Evident

[Hitcher]

That's why SPEIGHTS is best ... South Island water is the best in the world.

So James Speight built a pipeline to Europe then? How ingenious!

Fuck God bless the ignore function....

PS, top right, triangle with the exclamation mark.... go on, you know you want to!

Actually Joni I can't see a triangle anywhere, but I did eventually find a way to access the buddy/ignore system. Certainly made this thread a lot shorter

This topic is supposedly about 11/9 (or 9/11) being self evident. So far there is very little on this topic in the whole thread. Plenty of anti-american hysteria, but almost nothing concerning 11/9. Please keep on topic or the whole thread goes to PD.

Can anybody else taste the difference between Kronenbourg and Carlsberg? Is it the hops? Or is the water that much different between France and Denmark?

The water in Denmark is much better than in France. That's why SPEIGHTS is best

Nope, nothing about beer in the original topic. Do your duty, Mr Jantar, two infractions there methinks.[[/QUOTE]

There's nothing about petty jibes in the original topic either...

I disagree. Beer is self-evident. Always.

I shall note that as an official response, for future reference.

As for your ideas of war; I hope human beings are over that kind of thinking within my lifetime.

That can never happen.

In one sense I agree that if the Yanks want to mess with the Arabs then they deserve some feedback, but what is forgotten (and by the Yanks) is that this was an attack on the World Trade Centre so from memory the significant proportion were not Yanks.

The yanks were pissing off the towel heads a loooong time before even the first WTC attack... that's why they were even attacked in the first place..

Do "towel heads" drink beer? Maybe that would help.

Interesting question. The septics have definitely improved since all those micro-breweries started up.

No, they are generally Muslims and alcohol is forbidden by their religion. Which is not to say that some don't break the rule. But one would expect the more religiously fervent to be more strict in its observance. I hope that answers your question ?

I hope that answers your question?

Partly. I guess one can only speculate as to the "helpfulness" of beer consumption in this regard. A population of the abstemious could be a useful control group for a scientific study.

Back to 11/9......this event marked the first time in history, steel framed concrete buildings have collapsed after a relatively short time, ever!
WTC 7, the 42 story building, not touched by the attack, collapsed from the top story penthouse (it collapsed 4 secs before the main building) into its own footprint in a perfect controlled demolition scenario!. The 2 main buildings (designed to take the force of a fully laden 707 flying into them), collapsed at free fall rates, with no deviation from vertical, after a short period of fire at temperatures far below that required to weaken the steel core. A controlled demolition expert couldn't have done better if he tried - on all buildings!
But, the seriously damaged other small WTC ? building, which was pummeled by flying debris remained upright!

Carefully watch the videos of the "collapses". There are heaps out there. Collapsed because of the damage - bullshit!

Osama Bin Laden - an intelligent engineer on a mission - one of the Bin Laden boys from one of Saudi Arabias biggest construction firms, with substantive links to US firms linked to the likes of Haliburton, etc. Worth billions. Contacts throughout the Neo con hierachy of US government. If anyone could ensure buildings could come down, they could, while the government looked the other way. How come , with all the resources supposedly at their disposal, and Osama with a severe kidney condition, the US hasn't been able to track him down and catch him - they don't want to - he's of more value as a bogey man, which they can trot out to scare more people and enforce yet more restrictions in their "War of terror".

Greg Palast summed it up rather neatly, when talking about the theft of the 2004 elections by Bush and co. "..Despite everything, there still remains the fact that 52 million Americans voted for Bush! I get the feeling that it was actually an intelligence test and, we've just failed!"

We've all heard the "official" story of the destruction of the Death Star. However, recent evidence indicates we may not be getting the whole story. This article presents several uncomfortable questions that throw the official theory into doubt, and point to the possibility that the destruction of the Death Star may have been an inside job.
