Thank God we're not Russia

9/11. Was your viewing of the planes crashing into the WTCs "worthless"?
Unless you saw it happen yourself (in which case your opinion would be
"worthless") the imagery you think of when you think of the WTC attacks is
based on eyewitnesses.

If it were only witnesses that reported those attacks, we'd not believe in
the attacks. Think this through for a moment, and you'll see the
reasoning. Consider if there were no physical evidence...

It's the same as several witnesses reporting a crash in the Hudson a while
back. The witnesses all saw pretty much the same thing, and there was no
"connection" between the witnesses.

Yet they were all wrong. It was a flight checking on migratory birds, or
some such thing, and they'd flown rather low past the GW bridge. No crash.
No problem at all, in fact.

No evidence of problem either; just some witnesses.

Well, in that case there's no point in believing the Russian jets crashed at
all. The investigation results aren't complete so at the notion that the
airplanes crashed is all hypothetical and speculative.

I mean, how do we know it just wasn't two flocks of birds?
No..wait...swamp gas. Meteorites! Yeah, that's it. Can't speculate though
until the Russian government -- the same folks that brought you the Kursk
submarine fiasco, which might just a rumor too as far as we should be
concerned since we only heard about it on the media -- says otherwise.

So two UFOs were seen crashing in Russia this week and two jetliners are
missing. Better wait until the investigation results to confirm that it
wasn't migratory birds.

You guys are right. I'm sorry. Yaaaaaay Russia! The paragon of freedom
of
information and public disclosure. Yaaaaaaaaaay Russia!

Don't quit your day job.

Not sure what my day job has to do anything, but, tell me which one,
Comrade? Writing? Computers and newtorking? Performing music or building
battle robots for television and video games? What are you presuming my day
job to be, anyhow?

Oh, and look: The Russian officials finally figured out that that there
were explosions and terrorism. Golly, Wally, who'da thunk? The experts
finally figured out what the media knew immediately.

The media did not _know_ a damn thing beyond the fact that two planes
crashed under highly suspicious circumstances, period! Hell, even the
people who planted the bombs didn't _know_ that they had brought the
planes down until there was corraborative evidence - the planes could
have crashed from a coincidental cause unrelated to their activities.
They certainly would have a good reason to _expect_ that their actions
were responsible, but this is not the same thing as _knowing_ that
they did.

Your lack of critical analysis, coupled with your unwillingness to
even attempt to understand the point others are making about your
pronouncements, have me fervently hoping that you are not now, have
never been, and never will be associated with any forensic activity
of any kind. Having already determined for yourself what consitutes
'truth', you are only too likely to make sure your investigation
supports the conclusion you've already reached.
