I can just as easily say that everyone that witnessed 9/11 agrees that there was no explosion to be heard or felt as you can that hundred of people do say there was. There's no basis behind your words. Argumentum ad numerum (argument or appeal to numbers). This fallacy is the attempt to prove something by showing how many people think that it's true. But no matter how many people believe something, that doesn't necessarily make it true or right. Example: "At least 70% of all Americans support restrictions on access to abortions." Well, maybe 70% of Americans are wrong! And just to anticipate a possible response, I'll post another fallacy: Tu quoque ("you too"). This is the fallacy of defending an error in one's reasoning by pointing out that one's opponent has made the same error. An error is still an error, regardless of how many people make it. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Honestly, people died. Why does it matter? Well I have to disagree, just because it makes a difference of who did the killing doesn't mean it was terrorists alone. I haven't done too much research yet at all, but in revelation where the anti-christ is appears, and a society described as the NWO appears, the 9/11 attacks make perfect sense. Those in the NWO create a conflict; like say a terrorist attack, or the Great Depression (to get everyone ssid), and then they hide themselves behind the solution to the conflict. I'm in highschool and I'm in IB, which is International Baccalaureate, and it's main 'focus' is internationalism. Well, what do you think a proposed solution to 9/11 attacks will be? Sit and watch? Kill them all? No i don't think either of those will be the 'solution'. According to the bible, the NWO is going to happen, so there's not exactly a reason to fight it, its going to happen, but I just want everyone here to have an open mind and know that something may be going on, besides the usual terrorism. Here are some links to some sites regarding weapons confiscated from Afghanistan. You really think.. Russia, or China is giving these people these types of things? They don't just appear out of nowhere. I have a suspicion that this has been a complete setup by the NWO. http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qn4158/is_20020323/ai_n12606420 http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,48613,00.html http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,134625,00.html Quote from last link: About 35 to 50 “old, decayed” chemical and biological shells have been found in Iraq so far, all of which are said to have been produced in the 1980s.

It was clear to ME what Kaias was saying and it's not a freaking fallacy. Maybe not a great argument, but not a fallacy. A topic inevitably gets weighed down and off-topic (at the least) with constant fallacy accusations and I don't think people should go so far out of their way to make them.
Edit: Well I just read the whole topic and I can see how such a discussion as we had here on this last page seemed like nothing. I feel like I just deleted more than 20 posts. With very minimal fines. Be thankful. And learn to debate. Keep your posts on-topic, relevant, structured, and lastly, don't get involved in stupid spam wars for several pages without anyone actually saying anything. This doesn't need to be a tl;dr because people don't know how to conduct themselves in SD. This post was edited 1 time, last edit by Dapperdan: Sep 6 2008, 3:14 am.

the youtube videos concerning the 9/11 conspiracy ( i have watched all 19 of them ) have interviews, and clips from more quotable references than u-tube. people on sight, people being interviewed by reporters and independent investigations groups, have said that they heard explosions. All of the windows of the first floor (ground floor, more rather) were shattered, the glass was on the outside of the building. A bomb had gone off on that bottom floor, a plane 89 floors up couldn't have done that to 3' inch windows... there's a clip of the inside of the ground floor after the plane hit. there were bombs in the 911 incident, whether or not they were government related or part of the terrorist's plot is for the audience to guess, as of now you cannot say with an absolute tone that the bombs belonged to one side or the other.

You know where those explosions came from? Like I said in my first post, a building is literally crawling with pipelines, utilities, electrics, plumming, and many many things gas and diesel related. One probably doesn't know this because they're hidden behind the dry-walls of the buildings. If the walls and columns start buckling, so will all these hidden and flammable mechanical devices and systems. And once you start throwing in fire, it's going to cause some problems. Just because many people say they've heard explosions doesn't translate into there being bombs. When you describe something, people will use figures of speeches like similes, metaphors, etc.
And the ground floor's columns hold the most weight and undergo the greatest axial/shear stresses. Like i said in my first post, a building wasn't designed to withstand giant airplane crashes. So once you throw in that airplane, it's bound to mess up pretty much the entire building's stress, strain, and force measurements, thus making the design unsafe. In the realm of structural engineering, even the slightest tweak to a beam or girder on the 100th floor can drastically affect the mechanics of a beam or girder on the ground floor; every component of a structure or system is dependent of each other. The physical damage from the falling debris/airplane or the fire that burned for hours alone wouldn't necessarily cause the buildings to collapse, but once you combine these two elements, it can easily cause the ground floor's members to fail. Once the columns and walls cave in, so will the windows but since they are much more brittle than steel or reinforced concrete, they will shatter. The more of these videos I watch, the more retarded I find them. It's like a bunch of kinder gardeners trying to do calculus. These people are claiming this and that while lacking even the simplest of engineering mechanics knowledge. Like that one video, number 8. Sure they've probably gotten the fact that steel can't be melted by the orange flames that we see, but they start derailing once they start claiming that fire alone can't make the building collapse, therefore it has to be a bomb. Many of these people have gotten the facts right, but they're not using them in the right way or they are applying them in totally wrong cases. I suggest that everyone start here. Once people are well educated in these topics, they will realize that there's more to a collapse of a building than simply fire.

FOX News' Ian McCaleb, Bret Baier, Catherine Donaldson-Evans and The Associated Press contributed to this report. Overall, regarding your post and my comments, terrorists are people who impart fear into a people by force, violence, and killing for a specific purpose. By the definition of terrorism, 9/11 is classified as a terrorist attack. I don't think we need to "kill them all", unless by them we mean terrorists. These people(if i go as far to call them that) don't have any 'moral' bounds to our culture. They don't think like you and me. They will kill innocent at the drop of a hat and not lose a wink of sleep, just an arm or a leg(ok, bad pun). They will fight all opposition, with conviction that they are truly doing God's will by killing His creations.(and for those that don't believe in God, it will be even easier to find a hint of madness in it) the youtube videos concerning the 9/11 conspiracy ( i have watched all 19 of them ) have interviews, and clips from more quotable references than u-tube. people on sight, people being interviewed by reporters and independent investigations groups, have said that they heard explosions.
