    Without in any way addressing these theories, that is so incredibly off. People who believe a missile or thermite etc destroyed the towers are in the minority…

      That may be true, but I really don’t see how. Hence my astonishment

      Just like the WTC 7 thing, but that’s a whole different discussion

        Because there’s videos of airplanes hitting the towers and a bunch of people who got on planes and then died. Even if that is all faked, it’s very clear why that would be the majority opinion.

          Who’s talking about planes hitting towers? We are talking about the Pentagon (hint: it’s in the title of this thread). Also WTC 7 I mentioned, which also wasn’t hit with a plane.

          Unless I missed something or you’re replying to the wrong person I’m confused

            Ok there’s people who got on a plane and died and hadn’t been near the Pentagon, it is the same story, yes the video is grainy.

            And yeah WTC7 had a giant bunch of shit fall on it, most people do not think it was a controlled demolition.

            Furthermore I and many other people who think it was a US government involved conspiracy also believe the conspiracy involved crashing planes into shit

              I think this is the key takeaway here. The actual mechanism of “DID THEY FAKE 9/11!??!?” doesn’t matter anywhere near as much as what it was used to accomplish. Like oh no add another 3k to the 5M dead in Iraq, it’s a drop in the bucket. The US government kills its own citizens all the time.
