"There is no end to the variety of Truthers' claims, but most of them believe that the United States government perpetrated 9/11 in an elaborate conspiracy to bring about the decomposition of civil liberties and the fortification of the American empire in the Middle East.

If truthers kept things simple: Tower 7's fall was intentional to destroy evidence that would have saved us from the financial meltdown.
ReplyDeleteI'll buy that. Other than that they should shut up.
