The UK’s Independent Television News dedicated a short segment of a Monday broadcast to briefly explaining several core tent poles of the 9/11 truth movement.
“With new figures showing almost 150 million Web pages devoted to 9/11 conspiracies, here are the big three so-called plot holes in the official version,” announced a narrator.
“One theory is that the collapse of both the twin towers was caused not by the impact of the planes and subsequent fires, but by controlled demolitions. Theorists point to the uniform crumbling of individual floors in each tower.”
The narrator also mentioned a more obscure 9/11 theory: that the planes which hit the WTC towers had ’shaped charge warheads’ in their nosecones.

Perhaps the most widely discussed theory, that there was no plane crash at the Pentagon, is also mentioned, with evidence cited as the lack of debris and the small impact hole. The program also mentions that the FBI has refused to release video footage of the object impacting the Pentagon, but failed to disclose how many cameras captured it.
Specifically, the FBI confiscated 85 video tapes which may contain footage of the attack.
The program also outlines questions about the alleged crash in Shanksville, PA., citing eyewitness reports of debris raining down across a wide area, as if the aircraft had been shot down by a missile.
Strangely absent was any attempt to summarize questions surrounding the collapse of World Trade Center 7: a highly significant event to 9/11 truth activists, still rife with questions even after the recent National Institute of Standards and Technology report.

How come Popular Mechanics doesn’t have to dedicate AN ENTIRE issue to UFO’s?
WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!!!!

I never watch main stream TV anyway, all a load of bullshit imo. You can get everything u need from the net.

Ohhh, missed that last night.
However, watching the above clip, it is so noticeable just how edited it seemed. Note the showing of the collapse of one of the towers, not it actually coming down, oh no, only right at the end with the dust cloud billowing. Too risky to show the collapse in movie images, thinking people might actually see the reason why many are asking questions.
Note the shot of the Pentagon before the roof caved in. The area of impact dark and indistinct, thus it was impossible to see the small hole through which the large aircraft apparently squeezed, a far cry from the detailed shot afterward of the collapsed roof. Pity they didn’t show the intact windows above the small hole, the ones with the firemen’s spray sticking to the glass where the plane’s tail fin should have crashed through.
Well done messrs ITV, you think we are all fools, but it just shows how awareness is spreading, as the powers that be desperately try to continue their ridicule, smear and cover up.

good but still a confusing look at 911 Truth. They should have pointed out the physical evidence of Controlled Demolition; FBI and US Intelligence Officers blowing the whistle on 911; the War Games occurring that day: and the Stand Down Orders delivered by Dick Cheney.

The BBC enjoys far more respect from main street than it deserves. We all know FOXNews and CNN to be despicable shills for war, more war, and way more war.
But the so called credible TV outlets like BBC, PBS and CBC do so much damage because a lot of so called intelligent people still trust them. They are a crucial cornerstone in the NWO prison, built for all of us.
But it is always good to know and understand your enemy. So one obvious strategy that our NWO enemies are using on us is to chaff the skies, muddy the waters or to do a replay of the JFK cover-up.
Create a million theories and put em all out there.
Do it with your own sites, do it by infiltrating legit sites, do it by repeating and combining all sorts of theories. Soon people are so confused so overwhelmed that the inevitable ” too bad so sad, we’ll just never know the truth”….mantra starts to take over.
I always see a lot of theories on these threads where some people get really worked up about making you believe their pet theory of EXACTLY what happened. Some of them are passionate real truthers, and some are clearly the dirty agent provocateurs of the NWO trying to fuck us up.
We know it was an inside job. We know that Bush Cheney and many high level players were involved to some degree.
We have more than enough solid evidence showing the government story to be fabricated and false. We have enough for a new investigation, now today. We should stop bickering amongst ourselves over which specific tactics were used in this crime. That is the job of a new investigation. Our job is to use the mountain of evidence to demand a new investigation that is open, honest, properly funded, and done by credible people…..no small task to be sure, but still doable.
They got away with JFK because they buried us in human suspects…..FBI, CIA, Numerous mafia families, Hoover, Castro, Marylin Monroe lovers, KGB, and on and on. There was very little science (some) so a new investigation would have been easy to rig or blow up.
911 is totally different.
We have mountains of scientific evidence. All we need to do is get these vile cocksuckers like Bush, Cheney, Powell, Clinton, Rumsfeld, into a private session with skilled interrogators.
First one to talk gets conjugal visits in prison. Everyone one else is on trial for murder and treason.
We can find out. We need a critical mass of our society to understand the lies of our government. We do not need to figure out the entire truth all by ourselves, nor do we need to fight about which of our pet theories is most correct.

That’s right – they’re covering it up by broadcasting the various theories.
Genius.

The UK needs to look at the London subway bombings.

Miles: Popular Mechanics DID devote its cover page AND a lenthy, corresponding, lead articles to UFO’s once. It was a debunking effort. They trotted out photos and stories about all of the government’s “Operation Snowbird” craft, that is, conventionally powered aircraft, never seriously designed to fly, that have the traditional UFO saucer shape. They attempted to convince the reader that these things were being tested for real and were secretive. They then put in one paragraph calling Bob Lazar a fraud and a liar, that was the fellow who went public back in 1989/1990, first annonymously then with his name on record, regarding the project in the Nevada desert at a base just outside the main Area 51 base at Groom Lake, known as S-4. Lazar went into some detail as to the workings of the propulsion system.
