obvously you believe that Bush and the American government was behind the attacks. I could try to convince you otherwise, but I doubt I could sway you.

I doubt it. Lots of WWII movies were released during WWII. Casablance is considered one of the best movies ever made. Coming out while the Nazis were still in France made the movie more powerful. Many people who lived throught that time would say the WWII movies released during the War inspired the country to come together
I actually meant that as a joke, I know... It was a joke regarding the "too soon" thing. Although it kind of is. But in a way this movie dosen't feel too ofensive because the characters on screen are ficticious, while that flight movie seemed to be quite offensive to me.
I am not anti-american. What I'm against is tyranical, corrupt governments and senseless wars. I criticize my own country more than anyone I know, I just don't do it here (even though sometimes I do) because it`s pointless, you won't know what I'm talking about. I've never been anti-american, I'm quite the opposite of that regarding the country itself and its people, and you guys know that.

I agree with you, Chaltab, on how the whole thing worked out. The highjackings, the flying into the towers, that's sacred and that is related to the loss of innocent lifes in a way we KNOW that happened. BUT the main point is: who planned it out, who carried it away, why, and who profited from it.

have we ever demanded your head on a plate before Ric? We've gotten upset at you. We have had strong disagreements. But I don't ever remember anyone going to Jay and asking him to ban you because of your anti-American views.

I could go on and explain everything behind 9-11 but if I say what I want here, 90% of you will demand my head in a plate. So I rather stick with the pizza stones, Wii and top 10 films discussions.

No, no, not quite. It was not organized by the US, it was organized by the ones really responsible for it. What I belive is: the people behind this plot is doing it for the profits generated by the industries that benefited from the post 9-11 scenario, and yes several governments do cooperate in making sure the scenario keeps that way.
