1. Wide awake!
Surely no truly informed person could possibly deny the culpability of the administration.

http://www.robertscheer.com/
Referring to the 911 report's 28 censored pages:
Obviously alluding to Saudi Arabia, Sen. Bob Graham (D-Fla.), the former Senate Intelligence Committee chairman, said Sunday, "High officials in this government, who I assume were not just rogue officials acting on their own, made substantial contributions to the support and well-being of two of these terrorists and facilitated their ability to plan, practice and then execute the tragedy of Sept. 11."

The whole criminal lot of the bastards should be sent to Gitmo to enjoy the provisions of the Patriot Act for which 911 paved the way.

Anyone who still does not get the picture is either casting their lot with the fucktards or is mentally impaired. You're either with us or you're against us. Time to decide is up.

7. Mike Malloy had it right last evening...
when he mentioned there are those, like "Numbnuts" Bush who should go to prison for the rest of their lives, and those like Rumsfeld who should be put before a firing squad. Numbnuts should be spared only for the fact that he is too stupid to have been in on the planning of such an event, although his record as Governor of Texas as a murderer says he is quite capable of being in on something of the magnitude of 9/11!

2. You've got 'attack' in quotes.
Are you saying it wasn't an attack? Just curious.

3. of course it was an attack
i just didn't know how to phrase it exactly. if the u.s. government orchestrated this 'event' like i assume, how can it be called an attack? if one cause such an event on one's own nation, one cannot even say we were attacked. the language itself is changing rapidly under bushco. just like in 1984

8. Mopaul...
I would still like to know WHO told the military to stand down on 9/11 and WHY! I say it was Cheney. Remember how the FBI, or whoever it was, had to literally carry him away from his television when Washington was under "attack", he was so fixated with watching the twin towers burn...almost in a trance!

4. Yes, mopaul
You converted me about two months ago, can't remember specifically what did it. It was a long hard trecherous road to follow, but I'm a believer.

sucks, doen't it...

5. yeah, reality sucks
for me, it was an instant realization. and even now, i hope i'm totally wrong. but to suddenly have an epiphany and realize it after a time, must be a real shock to the system. as in the matrix.

6. No conversion here.
I knew Bumfuck & Co. did it from day one. I just looked at who benefitted (variation of follow the money).

Eight percenter.

9. It was gradual for me
On the day of the attacks, as much as I already loathed Bush and his crew, I couldn't conceive of their complicity.

Shortly thereafter, my oldest friend, an attorney, told me the story of his client, Delmart Vreeland. My head started swimming at the implications of the "let one happen, stop the rest" message.

Over the course of 2002, with careful reading, and simply observing the conduct of the Administration, the dots connected themselves.

Official story to gross incompetence to LIHOP to MIHOP. But I don't feel any better for it.

10. Still waiting for an investigation
It seems to be dragging. In terms of the thrust of the question, I am not converted that Bush did it.

11. No conversion
I've been LIHOP/MIHOP since I read "The War on Freedom" by Nafeez Mossadeq Ahmed

12. semi-converted
I don't think the Bush regime made 9/11 happen, but I believe they knew it was going to happen and merely allowed it to.

But I'm still open to suggestion.
