... coincidence is not proof.

I don't say this because I like the Bushies, or disrespect the families of 9/11 victims.

But, as you yourself say, they have lots of questions. No answers. Until someone within government, in a position to know, comes forward with definitive, solid information proving LIHOP/MIHOP, nothing happens.

Moreover, that was not the subject of the original post.

I have plenty of questions about this myself, and I have spent plenty of time trying to educate myself on the known facts and dissing the Bushies for their assaults on the people of this country (you would realize that were you not a newbie and were familiar with my previous posts and with my DU articles).

But, unlike many here, including yourself, I think solid, legal proof is what is necessary to upset the Bush administration's applecart. Even with that, the media and a complacent Congress might still be able to bury the issue forever. That was done with the Kennedy assassination investigation forty years ago. Questions remain, but there's still no solid proof of who was truly responsible for that act, either.

The power of the government to hide information from the public is considerable. You can believe all you wish, but belief simply doesn't matter. Irrefutable proof does.

I suggest you spend your time ferreting out that irrefutable proof, if you can, rather than berating the people who say that proof is required. It's simply a fact of life. Proof counts. When Nixon denied involvement in Watergate, investigators found proof sufficient to impeach, that Nixon was lying. The standards for that proof were high, but it was found. If Bush and company were complicit in the events of 9/11, there is proof, somewhere. Find it, and we will all be in your debt.

Cheers.
