The reason I start this thread is that, coming up to five years post-9/11, I watched Loose Change - 2nd Edition last night.

I found it, whilst one-sided of course (like Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11), to be compelling viewing and of great interest. The Google-hosted Video is 1 hour 22 minutes long. You may wish to find it on P2P networks as it will be better quality.

Warning: it is of course about that fateful day in 2001 and whatever you think and believe happened that day, one truth cannot be denied: just short of 3000 people died.

The question this video asks are - WHY - and more importantly - WAS BIN LADEN RESPONSIBLE? It offers subplots of conspiracy, deception and lies allegedly orchestrated by the Bush administration.

Previously, I believe that perhaps he was but also had doubts as to how much was known and how much led back to CIA training in Afghanistan and so-on. I freely admit that this and Moore's movie are one-sided and well-edited but the conspiracists are perhaps winning me over; certainly I'd need a large pinch of salt after watching Loose Change to not somewhat agree with them.

NOTE: whilst you're free to reply to this thread, you should keep it on-topic. What I am saying here is I want your interpretation of what you watched, what you already knew and what you believe. You might also want to read a little from Wikipedia before replying too.

As this could be quite a touchy subject, I have to point out that racial slurs, personal attacks and other antisocial posts will be deleted or edited. Bans might follow if necessary.
