From post #88, barking mad included this for the forum's eyes:
this quote i always found revealing and frightening......TruthOut document taken from a Ron Suskind NYTimes article.
Quote:
In the summer of 2002, after I had written an article in Esquire that the White House didn't like about Bush's former communications director, Karen Hughes, I had a meeting with a senior adviser to Bush. He expressed the White House's displeasure, and then he told me something that at the time I didn't fully comprehend - but which I now believe gets to the very heart of the Bush presidency.
The aide said that guys like me were "in what we call the reality-based community," which he defined as people who "believe that solutions emerge from your judicious study of discernible reality." I nodded and murmured something about enlightenment principles and empiricism. He cut me off. "That's not the way the world really works anymore," he continued. "We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality - judiciously, as you will - we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors ... and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do."
http://www.truthout.org/docs_04/101704A.shtml
The thread has since deteriorated, interestingly with not one reaction to barking's post. This thing on there being two realities is an excellent and enlightening comment from this writer, and lies at the heart of how the US elites can get away with involvement in having the 911 attacks happen.
And at the heart of why they will never get caught for it.
Why, it's exactly the reason that the likes of bush, his old man, blair, thatcher, kissinger, nixon, even clinton, never get sent to prison, despite their dreadful crimes against humanity.
Bush and those pulling his strings just took it all one step further, what with their designs for ever increasing hegemony intersecting with the sound-bite nature of today's media.
Chomsky got this one wrong kyser!

Interesting link there, Fela, especially about how the tensions in the Republican party are essentially the same as the one raging across much of the world: a battle between modernists and fundamentalists, pragmatists and true believers, reason and religion.
That's why I say we are in a three cornered fight. In one corner, "men of faith" like Bush and Blair; in another corner "men of faith" like Osama and Mullah Omah; and in the third corner there's we, the people, who are guided not by any exclusive religiousity, but by our lively understanding of our inalienable rights. In particular, that decisions affecting our lives should have a rational, not a religiously revealed, basis.

You claimed that I was currently "too busy trying to score jobs with multinational media companies."
Fuck knows why you dreamt up this piece of snidey bullshit, but for the record I not "too busy trying to score jobs" with anyone, least of all "multinational media corporations". I never have. Not once.
If I get work, it's because it's offered to me. I don't have an agency, I don't write to anyone, I don't cold call companies looking for work, I don't pitch for jobs or even possess a Word CV.
I don't claim any high moral ground mind, but I've turned down several multinational corporations over the years because of my own convictions (Nestle and Nike, for example). My call. My decision.
So I don't take too kindly to some loud mouthed bullshitter posting up malicious little lies about my supposed desperation to work for corporates. You're full of shit.
You've also refused to explain why your posted up this weird, FAQ-busting personal shit in the first place or explain its possible relevance to a thread about 9/11 and the BBC, but with all this disruption and personal stuff, I reckon you've done a grand job of earning a ban here.

You want me to spell it out right here why you vehemently trash all discussion on the mere possibility of 9/11 been known about?
Why you bin threads that show how many regular, normal and respected posters think something is wrong with the official story?

Let me guess.
Editor is in thrall to the insiduous media propaganda, that is used as a tool by the powers that be to manipulate the minds of the public into accepting tyranny gladly. Like a subtle version of Big Brother from 1984. Those who are under this spell can't figure out that they are being so deluded. When people try and point this out to them they lash out in anger and denial.
Something like that?

It's a fucking slow process though, which is why most of the binned threads get to about 500 postings before they're binned and then stay in the bin to be read for weeks afterwards.
In this way the Truth is hidden from us.
