Well, has any of our press picked up on Rummy's statement about PA
plane on 9/11 being SHOT down by the same people who were behind 9/11?

I haven't seen it in print and I don't watch the cable news shows. Just wondering.

1. NPR mentiuoned it briefly
...noting Rumsfeld's statement would fuel "conspiracy theorists".

...would fuel "conspiracy theorists"... Ya think?:silly:

If you want to read an excellent (currently on going) series on why "the 9/11 Commission was just another part of the ongoing cover up," check out :hippie:these articles:

15. WTF. Is Rummy lying or telling the truth? Should we believe our leaders
or not? If he is telling the truth and we should believe our leaders then more than a "conspiracy theory" needs to be fueled! What the hell do these people want? To just go along with every friggin thing this administration says and does? If anyone of Clinton's administration, especially his Secretary of Defense had said something like that can you imagine what the media would be saying and how many investigations would have already been started by Congress. If the media doesn't want to pay attention to what Rummy said, maybe the "Jersey Girls" will?

6. Will the truth ever be known by anyone but the diggers?
He was blaming someone else for 'Shooting Down' the plane, therefore the method of the plane's destruction was a secondary consideration and not relevant to his point... that's why he didn't censor the phrase.

Simple psychology - these people can't even LIE well... let alone run a government.

9. Why?
If the plane was shot down by US fighter planes, what motivation would they have to hide it? Wouldn't that make him (superficially) appear stronger?

Unless of course something went wrong, or it was shot down prematurely.

I bet Rummy's statement was just a Freudian slip.

12. No witnesses
If what I think happened, did happen, they sure couldn't have a plane load of people talking about it.

13. You're probably right, unless...
this is the start of a renewed effort to get people like us talking, and thinking about this, as opposed to an upcoming "Real" news story.:freak: These weasels are REALLY good at this type of distraction/deception. :mad:

16. Yes, apparently...
...my wife just came in and asked if I had heard about Rummy's quote.

She's a TV "news" type.
