He said he has no opinion because he's not a physicist or a structural engineer, so he's not going to try and debate the minutia of what happened in WTC 7. If you watch the whole video, he makes a well-reasoned case as to why he thinks the conspiracy claims are bogus, saying that if there were any merit to the conspiracy claims, they would be published and peer-reviewed by the physics and engineering community, and how easy it would be for these conspiracy theorists to bring their claims and data to the scientific community for analysis instead of the tinfoil hat n' pajamas youtube scholar community.

It's funny how Chomsky always says "I have no opinion on that" whenever somebody comes at him with bullshyt lol. I guess that's his way of being polite. I remember I was watching him on C-SPAN taking calls once and it was like every goofy ass HL

called in with their pet conspiracy/new age/pseudoscience topic question. I guess he attracts those types because his views are so outside of the mainstream. Caller after caller kept rambling about 9/11and banking conspiracies and even more off the wall shyt...one lady asked him some question about "goddess power," whatever that is and Gaia. He just kept repeating "I have no opinion on that" over and over on those types of callers. :heh:

I'd say him having one of the highest IQs of any living human being and being the world's most cited author gives him a good deal of credibility.

lol iq and being cited has nothing to do with his knowledge on 9/11 im not really into this conspiracy shyt but the way they handled the 9/11 commission and left building 7 out of it leaves more questions than answers

but he is also long-winded and boring.
I wouldn't call that a con really. At the end of the day, no one can deconstruct any arguments he puts out. All they can say is how they don't like the delivery. This always happens when it comes to anyone who can debate well. When people have nothing to say they will attack the messenger instead of the merits of the argument.

His intelligence and knowledge of peer review, jounalism, publication, and that whole process and the academic rigor that goes with it allow him to make the well-reasoned assessment he made.

The building 7 conspiracy is particularly insipid imo because :wtf: would the alleged conspirators gain by blowing up a 3rd smaller building the average person doesn't even know about? It wouldn't help with whatever nefarious motive they had. All it would do is raise a red flag and draw suspicion to the plot.

Meh, Ben Carson has a high IQ too and a leader in his field, doesn't mean shyt when it comes to his views on politics.

i totally agree with the bold. the investigation by the 9/11 commission and their subsequent report raised all kinds of red flags, and really left the door wide open for all these "conspiracy theories."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/9/11_Commission
Co-chairs Kean and Hamilton wrote a book about the constraints they faced as commissioners titled Without Precedent: The Inside Story of the 9/11 Commission.

The book was released on August 15, 2006 and chronicles the work of Kean (Commission Chairman) and Hamilton (Commission Vice-Chairman) of the 9/11 Commission. In the book, Kean and Hamilton charge that the 9/11 Commission was "set up to fail," and write that the commission was so frustrated with repeated misstatements by officials from The Pentagon and the Federal Aviation Administration during the investigation that it considered a separate investigation into possible obstruction of justice by Pentagon and FAA officials.[19]

John Farmer, Jr., senior counsel to the Commission stated that the Commission "discovered that...what government and military officials had told Congress, the Commission, the media, and the public about who knew what when — was almost entirely, and inexplicably, untrue." Farmer continues: "At some level of the government, at some point in time … there was a decision not to tell the truth about what happened...The (NORAD) tapes told a radically different story from what had been told to us and the public."[20] Thomas Kean, the head of the 9/11 Commission, concurred: "We to this day don’t know why NORAD told us what they told us, it was just so far from the truth."[21]





RED FLAGS all over the place... but as per the usual psuedo skeptics walking around with blinders on, totally accepting of the explanations put forth by the criminal organization known as the US government.... oh the irony :banderas:

Temperatures were not high enough to melt steel. Steel melts at 2500+ degrees F. The highest recorded temperatures at Ground Zero were barely above 1500 degrees F.​



Don't read NIST reports that have been on-line for several years, brehs.​



Believe Super Science Ninjas infiltrated the WTC and planted tons of explosives without anyone noticing and all traces of said explosives disappeared, brehs.

Those temps were taking days later. I've read the nist report and its a crock of shyt. what it implies actually goes against physics. but nevermind that. i didn't mean to interupt your circle jerk.

also chomsky's explanation for 9/11 not being a pretense for the iraq war has some merit, but is far from definitive for the point he's trying to make.

case in point, even though 9/11 wasn't used as a direct line to start the iraq war, 9/11 WAS clearly used as a catalyst to expand the overall "war on terror" (which includes aggression towards iraq) and implement things like the patriot act, war profiteering etc. plus i also think the US government was trying to tie al qaeda terrorist cells to iraq at one point... correct me if im wrong.

so just because the iraq war may not have been the explicit end game, doesn't mean there wasn't an explicit end game.

i also think it's speculative to think scientific journals and the protocols thereof are free from bias and misconduct. IM NOT SAYING this is the reason studies on 9/11 have not been introduced into the scientific community--i haven't done the research on how many reports on 9/11 have been submitted and/or reviewed and/or denied. but I AM SAYING politics COULD be playing a part in it, and to think it couldn't is naive, bordering on ignorant.

It is perfectly in-line with all physics. That's why you fools believe the buildings fell at free-fall speed.

I didn't watch video but did he have a take on what happened at the Pentagon on 9/11? Maybe physics can explain what happened there because what I read and heard was rife with bullshyt
