Can any thinking person actually, logically, believe that any sitting
president would look the other way while their country was attacked just for
economic gain? This goes beyond politics to basic human morality. I refuse

tragedy of this magnitude to happen. This falls among the lines of black
stealth helicopters flying over our cities, or CIA regulating the drug
trafficing in the US. Perhaps X-Files has run for too long, everyone is a
conspiracy theorist these days.
(Incidently I actually do kinda believe that the first moon landing was
filmed in a sound studio in Hollywood)
