Oh, Fintan certainly has a point. His problem is that he suspects <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>everyone</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> who might dare to dissent from his own views of being CIA. I imagine he is a member of some obscure orthodox Stalinist/Trotskyist/Leninist party and is accustomed to that type of "purges" on a regular basis.<br><br>People can be wrong, and people can disagree, without being disinfo agents.<br><br>But yes, I'm suspicious of the "Truth Movement". First of all, they are not getting much closer to the truth, and the clock is ticking. Many have been reluctant to embrace the findings of Daniel Hopsicker, for instance, who has been rightfully disappointed at how the "Movement" has ignored him, while not bothering to conduct any on-the-ground investigations on their own. The point, or at least the effect, often seems to be drawing people into fruitless grassy knollism, obsessions over pods and flashes and exit holes and tower collapses, and then create pointless and endless debates over these issues, which don't bring us any closer to finding the perpetrators (the specific individuals, as opposed to "the government"), which alienate large segments of the population that might otherwise have been interested, and which inspire a certain hopelessness about the vastness of the government/globalist/Zionist/Illuminati conspiracy.<br><br>But I suspect only very few people within the "Movement" are actually consciously spreading disinfo and trying to steer people's inquiries into cul-de-sacs. They have had a remarkable success, though. I don't think the "conspirators" are very worried about what is written on the internet about 9/11 these days. They are worried about Sibel Edmonds, Indira Singh, and other potential whistleblowers, and they would worry about Dan Hopsicker if he received more attention (or any attention).<br><br>I would guess that they (meaning <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>them</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> - or perhaps <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.arlingtoninstitute.org/products_services/home_05.asp">these</a><!--EZCODE LINK END-->) waited a while after 9/11, monitoring the net to see what alternative analysis would arise spontaneously and then sent in a couple of "change agents" when they deemed it necessary. <br><br>Who knows if Karl is one of them.<br><br> <p></p><i></i>
