"Loose Change" 9/11 Film airs Sun Nite 7pm, Ch 29 (SF)

It was embarassing watching the video of the Towers coming down and then have the Monday Night Football style stop action with the yellow pen circling of debris coming out of a floor as the floors above it fell with that annoying sedately understated slacker voice going on about how it was "proof" of charges being detonated. No other explanation was possible? How is this film "scientific"?
They should have got the guy who does the Smuckers commercials, or maybe the Pepperidge Farms guy for a more persuasive set of lungs to back the imagery. I still wouldn't have been swayed, but at least it would have added an intentional comic element to this anti-intellectual piece of liberal fluff.
These conspiracy theories miss the point that there is no need for the U.S. government to carry out such attacks on their own infrastructure to carry on the "war on terror". They've been doing it for years. Also, the people who carried out 9-11 had plenty of motive,over a hundred years of modern "Western" imperialism and meddling, and the tactical ability to carry out the attacks.
The issue of course is not about trying to catch the "bad apples" in the U.S. who "went against our interests" so they could control us all. Our government has never had our interests at heart.
A lot of these lame ass conspiracy films try to tell us that "anti-patriots" like Bush and Cheney just don't get what America "really" stands for. Isn't it obvious that "America" and every other nation state stands for capitalist production to maximize surplus value and squeeze the workers for all they're worth to maintain the system of production for those few who benefit? In the Soviet Union, it was the bureaucracy, the state capitalists. In the U.S. it is the private capitalists. Reform is not going to solve the problem, leaving us with some kind of "righteous nationalism" after we cleanse out the "special interests" of a "military industrial complex". The system is reproduced every time you or I work for a paycheck.
9-11 was not about the U.S. temporarily losing it's way under some evil conspiracy. It was the entirely predictable outcome of global capitalism creating huge classes of exploited people, and the way nation states play us all against one another. Of course the government will use the attacks to their advantage, but they didn't need to kill off large segments of their own class allies to do that, a . "Yeah we're protecting the interests of global capital and property, but we're just gonna fly a few jumbo jets into the main command center of our World Economy so we can have a war." Like they couldn't have drummed up a fake WMD story without that? Think of all the ways it hurt the U.S. economy that were predictable. Is that what Bush wanted? Highly doubtful folks.

Great documentary, YOU NEED TO WATCH IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
