I'm of the belief that if one wants to make such a claim, one must have unassailable evidence of the veracity of that claim if one expects to be taken seriously. I've seen no such evidence; the fact that there's even debate tells me that it likely doesn't exist.
Stop viewing the world from your own small little world. Yes, I'd love to think that the US is a model country and wouldn't do anything wrong. However, if we are to have a debate about whether or not to believe everything we have been told about 9/11 please don't use words like reasonable, ideally, and continue describing the US as a model of freedom and democrazy. Obviously a government of the people for the people and by the people would not do this to the people, but that's not what this debate is about. It's about finding out what really happened on 9/11. So please stop using rhetoric and start objectively looking at the full spectrum of information regarding 9/11, not just what you've been force fed.

The "allegations" I made do have very solid sources. I will cite them if you want me to, but it takes a while to dig them up so I haven't yet. However, may I ask you first if it will make a difference? Do you understand the significance of the government running drills of the exact same scenario on the exact same day, or past plans to carry out terror attacks on the civilian population? If you can't then there is no point to continue this debate.
