Thanks for the video, Arjay. The narrator asks what we see; I reckon I'll answer that. I see a 9-second loop of footage detailing a small part of an event that took a lot longer than 9 seconds to play out. Missing from the footage, for example, is an airliner that flew into a building. As far as I know, at the time of the incident, the only precedent for this had taken place on the same day. Sure, planes have collided with buildings before, but I can't think of another example of a plane hitting a building that big squarely and deliberately. Why would the narrator (who positions us to believe he is an engineer - he might well be) be able to predict the results of such an event, given that there was no precedent? He would have to catapult an object of a similar size, similar temperature, similar shape, similar capacity for destruction into a building of similar size, similar structure, etc at a similar speed to recreate the event. And I don't know too many people putting their hands up for that job.

Dear ELLSWORTH, The Lusitania should not have been a casus belli. It was carrying munitions, and that made it a legitimate target. The Germans had a right to sink it. Wilson's Secretary of State, William Jennings Bryan, resigned in protest at Wilson's warmongering. However, I fail to see what is wrong in women having the vote or the income tax.

Dear Arjay,

I saw the beginning of your Youtube video, and it confirmed my impression that you have a conspiratorial view.

Bushbred there you go agin ... and for an alledged historian it is a woeful practice.

How many born-again religio cranks and Nazi stormtroopers on parade have you actually looked in the eye that enables you to assess the nature of the look in their eye ... or indeed their similarities?

You should know such generalisations without any shred of authentic evidence is the type of pap that distorts the accuracy of history.

Grade E. Fail.

As for the Liberal Democratic US system ... well Bushbred would you like me to compare it to the many other systems, modern or ancient? With your apparent dubious methodilogies I doubt you'd be able to conduct an informed or unbiased analysis.

Thankyou for allowing me the compliment of deep and thoughtful ... but I think to you they are only words used in a similar fashion to over-full of confidence and the American way ... empty platitudes or critiques.

Nice to see you are not one of those grumpy, unloved, unfulfilled silly old buggars ... eh mate.

Keith, going by your remarks about your lifestyle, Keith, you are just a braggart who has had a lucky life.

Reckon as a student of political philosophy, you'd be lucky to get five out of ten.

Indeed, anyone who still backs Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and Co, should now be regarded academically as a total failure.

The mystery is how Blair and Howard ever got tangled up with them?

Ahhh Bushbred,

I prefer to think I'm an extrovert who has worked hard and earned my few benefits?

I've always recognised Australia's greatest curse is envy and it's often displayed alongside small minded arrogrant superiority.

You'd agree wouldn't you?

This was shown on national Danish TV. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_tf25lx_3o Our own Aust Govt has refused to let the ABC air it.This is not conspiracy theory but scientific forensic evidence that makes a lie of the offical Bush administration's view of reality.

Well over 800 Architects and Engineers in the USA now want a new investigation into 911 in the light of new evidence that is indisputable both scientically and visually.see http://www.aetruth.org/

The truth is slowly emerging and the real conspiritors will soon hopefully face justice.
