Look, let me make this very clear here - I live in Australia. What happens in America is of little concern to me - and that includes 9/11. I don't really care about it all that much one way or another. I have empathy, sure, but it doesn't affect me. It didn't happen here. I think that 9/11 is a localised American issue that had no business being in international news. It has, and I object to that. I get very irritated at that. I think that it has become far, far more important than it needed to have been.
Therefore, given that I have very little interest in it, I obviously don't know anything about the "9/11 truth movement" or any of the other movements. I don't know if it is true or not.
My passing interest is that it seems to be a complex issue, and whilst we can perhaps suggest some things that seem to be pretty obvious, there are a lot of unknowns, and henceforth so-called conspiracy theories belong in this kind of issue. Where there are unknowns, there are theories. This is fair and reasonable.
As for people being experts, obviously if you are pushing the theory yourself, then you are an expert on pushing the theory.
Please, guys, I get so fucking sick of people insisting that I am interested in something when I am not. I have zero interest in 9/11. I couldn't give a shit about it. I am interested in the war in Iraq because our country is involved in that. See the difference? Until Americans start to pay attention to what happens in Australia, I don't see why I should pay attention to what happens in America, in anything more than a passing way. I mean there are people that don't even know about PA or MV Tampa for heaven's sakes, two of the biggest issues in Australian history. So why should I care about something in America, in anything more than a passing way? I am sorry, Americans, but the world doesn't revolve around you. Many people like to be interested in their own country's affairs.
