  • Twoofers are so annoying.

  • "Why was it such a hot potato?"

    How the hell should I know? Maybe they left it in the oven too long!

  • elitist lying bitch, parasitic money whore, genetically flawed, non-productive childless know nothing

  • @BigMikeMcBastard have you not seen the many building 7 collapse videos? Oh never mind your only going to see what you want to anyway

  • I hope Amy will someday realize she's a moron.

  • @Elmore3141 Isnt every women?

  • She is an establishment goon... I loved her show on the Arizona shooting. She basically brought in two polygay experts who blamed the right wing when Jared Loughner was anti-american and communist. Then a Police Chief who said ther are no conspiracies. No wonder she's pulled herself off youtube, people can actually challenger her establishment nonsense.

  • The so-called "debate" that D.N. did was a hatchet-job that pitted a couple of apologists from Popular Mechanics against two college-kids who didn't know the first thing about maintaining objectivity or composure.

    If D.N. wanted to do a real debate, she would have invited Stephen Jones, Richard Gage, or David Ray Griffin.

  • @smujismuj I'm not sure why the Popular Mechanics guys are apologists when their info is basically just what the broader scientific community around the world has to say about the whole "issue" such as it is. There isn't any question about the 9/11 stuff outside of the Internet. It's the most studied civic disaster in history, and no university I know of has yet to conclude that there had to be bombs or missiles or anything involved.

    In short, there isn't a debate to be had. Just kids on the net

  • @BigMikeMcBastard

    So, then all of you enablers shouldn't mind if there was a credible, objective investigation of not only the physical damage, but the intelligence leading up to it and how so much information disappeared as soon as it hit the white house. Interesting that so much testimony was left out of the 9/11 cOmission Report. For instance, it never even mentioned bldg 7. Interesting how even some of the commissioners suspected a cover up.

  • @smujismuj "Enablers"? What exactly am I enabling?

    The problem here is that all of this has been looked at. Building 7, the USA's pretty shitty intelligence services, all of it. It's been looked at and assessed and experts with no discernible reason to lie have said that there's no evidence of any inside job.

    But that's not good enough? Be honest, who could you EVER hear "there was no conspiracy" from that you'd actually believe? Is there anyone? Can you possibly be persuaded?

  • @BigMikeMcBastard

    How could I be convinced that bldg 7 dropped straight down, all at once, because of a couple of small fires?

    Not easily.

  • @smujismuj Let's be honest, you can't be convinced. You've already made up your mind. All the experts have weighed in on this, almost without exception they don't feel any bombs or anything were even required. But their opinions don't matter to you for whichever reasons you've decided on.

    So, what's left? The experts are out. Who exactly is left? Who is going to say "here's what happened, no inside job required" and actually have a chance of convincing you? I don't think such a person exists.

  • @BigMikeMcBastard

    I am at a loss as to how anyone could watch 7 drop all at once and still believe the official account.

    So, you are right, I haven't seen or heard any account of that incident that has changed my mind.

    If you can't believe your own eyes, then we're both wasting our time here.

  • @smujismuj It didn't collapse at all once. As well, there were outward signs of the impending collapse as well, which prompted firefighters to clear away from it and halt firefighting/rescue efforts within it which is why nobody was hurt when it collapsed. Numerous engineering agencies have weighed in on this, and none conclude the necessity of explosives. But I guess they're all in on it, huh?

    And that still leaves the "why" and "how" of controlled demolitions.

  • @BigMikeMcBastard

    "It didn't collapse all at once."

    You seem to be in denial.

  • @smujismuj Denial of what? It's fairly well documented how it collapsed because there were emergency workers all around it. They said it collapsed partially on the east side and then shortly afterward the rest of it came down. No explosions were heard and the windows didn't blow out as they would have if explosives were used.

    But, as I said, the accounts of the firefighters/etc and the investigation by the NIST are discarded because they're in on it, huh? Everyone is in on it but you, I guess.

  • @BigMikeMcBastard

    One doesn't have to be 'in on it' to buy into the official nonsense.

    The top of bldg 7 was intact, then suddenly it wasn't.

    That doesn't happen as a result of low level fires.

    Please stop parroting the lies and watch the AE9/11truth video before you make a further fool of yourself.

  • @smujismuj Right, and maybe next I'll go ask the Discovery Institute what the truth about evolution is.

  • @BigMikeMcBastard You are mistaken or out and out lying. Many people heard explosions, TV reported explosions at the time and the building came down just like it would in a controlled demolition. Firefighters described the pop pop pop of the buildings blowing out. All anyone has to do is look on line at the old film footages.  Also take a look at the Windsor building burning. I think you must be one of the government people who are hired to write lies about this.

  • @bansidh Harry Eisner interviewed Deputy Chief Peter Hayden regarding 9/11 for Firehouse Magazine. Hayden was one of the firefighters who was at the 9/11 ground zero site. He said they knew it was going to collapse by 2 pm because they saw a large bulge on its side after it had been hit by debris from the north tower, so when it finally came down at 5 pm it wasn't a surprise to them and nobody got hurt.

  • @bansidh You can read the entire interview online, it's just a search away. I like that you think the US government pays people to write comments on YouTube about this. Do you really think they take any of this stuff seriously?

  • How come every schmuck with a $100 video camera thinks he is a journalist, and therefore entitled to hijack people like Amy with their pet obsessions. She tried to answer your stupid question with grace and dignity even though she was busy. You should have left it at that. Let's face it. You're just not bright enough to trick her into saying anything she might later regret. My advice? Don't give up the day job.

  • Man you should have just thanked her walked away after she answered the one question you said you wanted her to answer.This is one reason why some people are scared to adress a question at a busy time.

  • Amy......? go move to Saudi Arabia or Iran.... See how women are treated their.

    Maybe then, you will understand that Islam is a Facist Ideology like the Nazi's with a twisted direct order from God to kill Jews, Christians, Apostates, and anyone who is against "Islam" - Amy...? are you really that stupid..?

  • @yakov321 fK you. i would punch you directly in the face if i ever saw you say that to her in person. just because we do not do everything that is wrong does not mean every thing that is done here is right. those things you speak about would more than likely be going on here if it wasnt for people like her doing what they do through out history.

  • What's the biggest problem with finding out the truth about 9/11? It's not Goodman.

    Instead, it's that this search for truth is an big money machine. Which means in any similliar situation, it's people fighting over money and turf instead of working together. In addition, nobody wants to publically admit that.

    Therefore, why should Goodman (one of the heads of a major network) waste her time with that?

  • Amy Goodman rocks! She has the courage to ask probing and intelligent questions. She doesn't shy away from the tough stuff. We need more people like her in this country~

  • @herrrob14 well said. Amy is a leader of the progressive movement who doesn't care what "mainstream" media is.

  • @tegl1n stop with your racist postings on other channels. you should be ashamed of yourself.

  • @herrrob14 she rocks??? what are you  11 Jesus Christ this woman is a socilist Cunt!!!

  • @irishsean2 u full of shit nino!

  • @irishsean2

    Since you don't like honesty in media, you should probably stick to your comfort zone with big corporate media, this way you get to hear your own views regurgitated back to you.

  • @Yoseman1 thius woman has never told the truth thats what got her fired from big coroprate news look it up.. shes so bitter about the firing and being a buull dyke  she has a alnted look on life

  • @irishsean2

    That is simply untrue. Amy is considered one the top journalists in the media industry. The fact that she doesn't work for the corporate media is by her choice. She has her own national show, and doesn't have to answer to anybody. Her list of awards is MUCH to long to list. Her father was also a legend in the biz. Next time you want to make something up, please make sure you are talking to a moron who won't question it, otherwise you run the risk of looking dumb....like now.

  • Amy Goodman and the Democracy Now people do great work on a very limited budget. I'm glad they don't waste any more of their valuable time on these conspiracy theories, which are not supported by any evidence, despite the proponents claims to the contrary.

  • Amy Goodman is radical lesbian socialist white hater!

    Down with the homosexual mafia!!! Ha!

  • congratulations, you have been promoted to the rank of spammer. ad hominem attacks are pathetic and so are you.

  • @tryanjohnson

    She's also a liar and a total asshole.

  • Not just thermite. Military grade Nano-Thermite

  • One nut stalking another nut.

  • that was great. when she is running around in riots filming and asking questions of cops who are working - all they have to tell here in "this is not a good time" and she will leave - right?

  • Alright, well I'm not entirely up on this "9/11 was an inside job and attacking our own people benefited us somehow" thing, but can someone explain what the new popular theory about it is? Like, how it is thought to have gone down? I only ask because one of the comments mentioned thermite, and I don't know of a theory that includes that particular substance in it.

    (Also not to be a dick, but thermite proves nothing. The military uses it, but any ass off the street can make it.)

  • Had this guy asked if he could film? Such rudeness is typical. It's time to purge the hippie scum from the university system. We got a few at G8.

  • oh, so they make money means theyre lying? you can lie for money or try to tell the truth. we all need to pay the rent. when bill oreilly quizzed howard stern on his millions howard should have asked him how much bill makes but that would be rude. keep the rules even for both sides.

  • The bottom line is Democracy Now is first and foremost a business. And in this global depression, Goodman will do everything she has to to protect it.

  • She knows why. She was just trying to be polite in this clip.

    She, Juan Gonzalez and a few others started Democracy Now. They get their funding from their online store, contracts with affiliates. And she makes money from her books, lecture tours, etc.

    Aside from her being progressive, that's what many of the MSM people do. Which means she can only go so far in talking about 9/11.

    Sadly, if Democracy Now becomes the 9/11 Show, how many people will take her seriously?

  • The real smoking gun is the FACT that they have now detected Thermite residues in the 4 different samples of dust from the 9/11. What more do you want. It's proof that explosives were used. Period end of story.

    By all means look it, read it, understand it, and face the TRUTH!

  • CUKOOO, CUKKOOOO, CUKKKKOOOO

  • you know, it seems to me like 9/11 truthers are only focused on 9/11 and american deaths and dont care about the hundreds of thousands of latinos and southeast asians we've murdered in south america and vietnam/cambodia/laos. when 9/11 truthers show knowledge of other, greater crimes than the one they're focused on, i'll pay attention to the movement. until then, it's just another ethnocentric, almost racist obsession over things that only happen to ourselves and not to others

  • I hear what your saying. Know that the same people that committed these heinous crimes. Are the same ones that pulled off 9/11. A lot of these people who are called "truthers" mos def care about the atrocities that happen in other countries. As you pointed out as soon as it hits home it means something.

  • You hear about crimes in your city all the time. But if it happen to your home you would want some justice and you would want it badly!

    Our own elite government sacrificed 3000 more human lives that has led to the genocide in Iraq and most likely millions more in the mid east as time goes on.

  • One left wing nut to another.

    9/11 truth idiot. Totally debunked conspiracy BS, yet they continue to aid our enemies with this CRAP. Traitors!

    I have a masters in mechanical engineering, structural analysis and make my living as an Airline Captain on the B767 out of JFK. I can tell you if some "9/11 truther" got in my face, started spewing nonsense, I'd really need all my self control not to knock them out.

    Goodwin defends islam, poor muslims and 9/11 was some how justified. IDIOTS!

  • Methinks that GmcJet and Susie have their heads so far of their red, white and blue keisters that they wouldnt know CRAP if they smelled it because they are already suffocating in it (its called our beloved US media).

    Have either you read the Pentagon Papers?

    OR perhaps the peer-reviewed scientific paper demonstrating that there are small spherules of molten metal and chips of a US patented incendiary known as nano-thermate in the dust from ground zero?

    Please get a clue you two.

  • "peer-reviewed scientific paper"

    BS, one IDIOT came up with this. There was no thermate, just ONE BIG ALUMINUM JET FULL OF FUEL. DON'T YOU THINK A Boeing 767 (which I fly) with +100,000 lbs of Jet A fuel flying into the WTC (EVERY ONE SAW) might have had some affect on the building? I have a degree in Mechanical Engineering (LSU '85). The steel columns (exterior) of WTC are uniquely structural & stabilized by the floor beams. The sagging floor buckled the columns weakend by Jet A fueled fire.

  • hey gmcjetpilot, it seems you are one of those haters that like to make fools out of themselves! you CLAIM to have degrees in mechanical eng and structural analysis, question for you wiz kid..why did trade centre bldg no.7 collapse? b4 u answer with your obvious bullshit, i have a PHD in civil eng'g and would love to here your response on this, because science told us already the one and only way it could collapse under such circumstances!

  • "you CLAIM to have degrees structural analysis"

    Challenge me, LSU '85. I'M TELLING YOU A BIG AIR PLANE, FULL FUEL HITTING THE WTC TOOK THEM DOWN.

    WTC 7 was different. It didn't SEEM badly damaged but was. It was also a port authority building FULL of its own fuel. Folks not only does steel melt it has significant loss of strength heated by fuel fed fires. Google for WTC7

    Debunking the 9/11 Myths Popular Mechanics

    IT'S MADNESS YOU ARE TRYING TO DENY. IT HAPPENED!

  • Wow. You're stupidity knows no ends.

  • You are some kind of powerful stupid.

    "You're stupidity knows no ends."

    Lets break this gibberish down.

    (You are stupidity knows no ends?)

    First word should be, YOUR. Also the phrase in English not in moron is:

    Your stupidity (knows no bounds), or (is endless).

    Please repeat 3rd grade. You were just owned. Ouch! Run along troll.

  • Hey i'm up for the challenge wiz kid, when fuel burns it produces heat at 1600 degrees max while steel starts to melt at 3000 deg! I bet you don't know this but it's a fact, i didn't invent just make your research since you pretend to be an educated person..when you believe that there was enough fuel in WTC 7 to burn it down, you are actually suggesting that this fuel got burnt because of the adjacent burning structures, it just shows how ignorant you are! do your research b4 u speak!

  • There's a loss of significant yield strength before melting. Critical temp 1100F. 1600F is enough.

    There were BIG OLD HOLES in the side of the building (a conspiracy?). The holes where from B767's (saw it). This loss of structural integrity and the sagging floors, pulling the beams in, they CRIPPLED, due to eccentric loading and lower fire induced yield strength. The beams adjacent to "the holes" taking extra load failed first, followed by total instantaneous failure & energy released.

  • "significant yield strength before melting. Critical temp 1100F. 1600F is enough"

    you just brought that out of your ass.

    And that causes a building to have almost no resistance at all right also taking the fact that no airplane hit wtc 7.

  • Uh, sir.... where is one shred of evidence that bin Laden or Al Queada was behind 9/11??? Where?

    The FBI doesn't think he did it. Why do YOU???

    Because you're a sheep.

  • "Because you're a sheep."

    I'm an Int'l Airline Captain that gets security briefings, but you an internet troll punk knows? 9/11 was committed by Al Qaeda, a terrorist organization headed by Osama Bin Laden. There where many people responsible for 9/11, incl 19 Arab Muslim Hijackers. YouTube videos of Bin Laden confessing:

  • You're an international Airline Captain like I'm centerfielder for the Yankees.

    What a laugh.

    And those video's of "Bin Laden" confessing have all been debunked, ass face.

  • "You're an international Airline Captain like I'm centerfielder for the Yankees"

    Well I believe you if you mean the Special Olympics Yankee's. I have 4 type ratings: CE500, SA227, B737, B757, B767. 767/757 is a common type rating. I count them as one but fly both since my Airline has both. I hold ATP, Com SEL, CFI (instrument and multi engine) certificates and a first class medical with no wavers or limitations. My degrees are Mechanical Engineering, Physics, Math.

    Debunked? PROVE IT. FU

  • Pilots for 9/11 truth. Aviation experts that believe there is more than 19 guys from the mid east that were needed to pull this off.

    Maybe not a sheep. But your mos def in denial.

    The facts are out man. Thermite residues found in 4 different samples from the dust of the WTC. Thermite is a military explosive. Debunk that shit Mr Airline Captain!

  • "The FBI doesn't think he did it."

    Show me where the FBI says Osama Bin Laden not responcible for 9/11? He was wanted BEFORE 9/11, FBI Top Ten Most Wanted Fugitives:

    "USAMA BIN LADEN IS WANTED IN CONNECTION WITH THE AUG 7, 1998, BOMBINGS OF THE USA EMBASSIES IN DAR ES SALAAM, TANZANIA, & NAIROBI, KENYA. THESE ATTACKS KILLED OVER 200 PEOPLE. IN ADDITION, BIN LADEN IS A SUSPECT IN OTHER TERRORIST ATTACKS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD."

  • Dickface who loves CAPS (to compensate for some anatomical deficiency, I suppose) .. . ..

    Go to the fucking FBI website, moron. Do a google search on Bin Laden and 911 evidence and TELL ME WHAT YOU SEE.

    Bin Laden's financed Bush's OIL BUSINESS as well, jerk off. Grow the fuck up, why don't you?

    Osama was and still is a CIA operative.

  • LazlosPlane, you are right about how the CIA armed him or what we call Taliban/Al-CIAda back then. But it doenst end there they also printed books and cassettes to start jihad and from then on it was like the domino effect, mainly coming from out of anger of US policy causing atrocities.

    And about the FBI website there is no warrant for Osama (aka cia code name: TIM OSMAN) for the Twin Towers but for blowing up embassies, go there and see it yourself. I was surprised.

  • Plz forgive me for this but as a woman I see that chick as a dirty whore...9/11 hurt all of us deeply...we owe it to the ones who lost their lives & to the ones who lost their loved ones to ask questions & when we ask those questions, anyone who feels they have the right to brush us aside, should never ever b taken seriously. Thx 4 the video

  • Notice how she is trying to avoid answering the question.

    "I don't know, I don't know..."

  • What makes you think she knew the answer to that question? Do you have an answer to it? She already answered his main question.

  • They are also realizing weird things about 9/11, its not a rocket science question.

  • Saying "I don't know" IS an answer.

  • You have to look at her posture, and how she says it, and her overall reaction to the questions.

  • man she told u she doesn't know she doesn't know :D but she is a good woman

  • I highly doubt it, I think this woman knows more than she's letting on.

  • hey amy your my hero, god bless you for the truth you try to represent

  • chew on that aspartame amy!

  • A fair question, and fairly answered by Amy Goodman. DN! covered the topic, and they should talk with other media outlets as to why they haven't.

  • A) Study her reaction to the question. If she were talking to me, I'd think she might be lying/have a bit more to say.

    B) Study the way DN 'covered' the topic. She opened by presenting the Official Version as Truth. Pay attention to what she says throughout.

    C) DN/Amy play a sort of figurehead role in the 'left' in order to ensure control of the way issues are covered/not covered, ensure that those who trust this source follow their lines, and to set the precedent for "opposition media".

  • Oh, yeah. Peace be with you :)

    I really hate how the replies aren't stacked anymore; rather posted as new comments. Is it just me?

  • it just shows on your screen as a new comment but it shows as stacked on mine....i have been wondering the same actually

  • We are not a democracy. We are a federal republic. Wake up you liberal, secular, subjectivist.

  • I'm tring to eat here, and after, when I go to the toilet, NO, I probably won't be in the mood to give an interview then either. I write books, I lecture and speak to groups of interested people, that doesn't mean you can stick your microphone in my face anytime day or night. Nor am I obliged to carry your every torch. There are many vital worthy causes in the world and I cannot represent them all. I do my part, let us all do our part for truth, and the world will be much happier.

  • "This is not a good time to..."

  • how desprate, is that

  • Pretty desperate (or 'desprate')... I know I'm pretty desperate to get my hands on the bastards that killed 3,000+ of my fellow Americans. Too bad the bastards are protected by the Secret Service...

  • theres alot of people sayin that around the world in other countrys about your country, thats why 9/11 happened in the first place.

  • maybe you should write a book about the "cause of 9/11" since you seem to know so much about it. with your level of logic, i bet you could get harpercollins to publish it.

    harper collins is owned by rupert murdoch.

  • i don't think that this video has any value whatsoever, nothing takes place, the interview is terrible.

  • @kemosavvy poor audio as well. could have at least inserted closed captions.

  • The truth is 20 Muslim terrorists flew planes into buildings on Sept 11, 2001.

  • Wow u REALLY convinced me (!)

  • LIBERAL BITCH!!!!!!

  • Natzi b....!!!!!!

    That accomplished a lot.

  • She is a liberal, its a proven fact by her own website, interviews, and brand of research. She tells one side of the truth that suits her own beliefs, but anything opposite of that - she tries to disprove as lies.

  • liberal: adjective 1. favorable to progress or reform, as in political or religious affairs.

    Well, I guess this proves you either senseless or 'Rovian delusional'. Which is it?

  • I'd advise you to look up the definition of foolish, because that is how your comment is coming off. Perhaps the better word I should have used then for Amy Goodman is libertine - which is someone who is disparaging: someone against religious matters or a person who is unrestrained by convention and/or morality.

  • And despite the fact she claims to be unbiased and admits she is a secular Jew (look it up, if you don't believe me) - judging by what comes out of her mouth and whom she interviews - I'd say that definition of the word fits her better. If she wants to truly be unbiased then she would be free from all prejuidice and favoritism, eminently fair. Basically, whatever bias she has - she needs to leave at home.

  • She does a great job of leaving her bias at home, do you even watch her program? Compare it with the talking heads on TV and you will find a pretty stark contrast. Journalists shouldn't have bias in reporting.. its their job.

  • Gratified you've seen the error of your ways and also learned to use a dictionary. Now, if we could just do something about your foolish, narcistic compulsiveness about your religion...

  • Well be prepared for more correction, because I'm an Agnostic. So if you want to criticize me, you have to attack Agnosticism. :) But just because I'm an agnostic, doesn't mean that I have to believe in liberal dogma and can't have morals.

  • "prejudice,...bias", your own word usage, and yet you write "...believe in liberal 'dogma'' as though it precluded principles and was a religion! And to further your confusion of points, you imply that a person of liberal character "can't have morals"? You claim agnostic status yet you label Amy, a 'secular Jew' and find that to be a desparaging characteristic?

  • I never implied that that a person who was a liberal can't have morals - but in comparison to a person, who might be deemed conservative, they don't have the same kind of morals as they do. Amy Goodman admitted she was a secular Jew and I don't find that to be disparging at all. However, if she claims to be unbiased and tell the truth like it is - she needs to do more than show the liberal side of things. Its the only fair way of reporting the news like it is.

  • Do you watch democracy now? She reports both sides. She also does not usually insert her political view point. She has every right to do that outside of her news program. Speaking of morals, there shouldn't be a different set of morals for liberals and conservatives. Killing, (war) should be wrong across the board. Greed (savage capatalism) should be wrong across the board. Conservative media is propaganda brainwashing people to believe their point of view, there is no fair journalism there.

  • @araless what the fuck are you smoking!!!Even the the Left wing network MSNBC thionks shes off her rocker~~ she has never shown the other side of the argument! she reports on what she wants too! She supported those monsters Jens Six! who almost beat a child to death ,, this woman is a fucking evil cunt!!!

  • @irishsean2 You don't know her, and neither do I. Neither of us can say she is or isn't evil, and neither of us can even really say what evil even means. I have no idea who Jens six is and I don't have any idea if she supported them and to what extent. Your capitalization of "left" in "Left wing network" shows how much importance you place on the divisive stereotypes we've been given to put on like a cheap suit.

  • @araless to be fair miberal media does the same thing.

  • @northwestblazinfire You may be right, but I have never seen any network employ the tactics of Fox news.

  • Are some posters watching this clip and suggesting that she was hiding something or dodging a question here? To me she clearly answered the questions. It is so easy to find controversy if that is all you allow yourself to see.

  • OMFG! She's trying to hide the truth from us too!

    /sarcasm

  • or maybe she doesnt want to die from a sudden "heart attack" or "stroke".

  • Amy is as GREY as they get . she is no different than Peter Jennings or the rest of the media that simply avoids the subject. Expect no more from Amy than the rest of the media. SHe is just one of them. Just grey.

  • Amy Goodman is an excellent journalist.

    She was one of the only journalists to uncover Suharto's slaughter of 2-300,000 people in East Timor.

    In fact she was arrested & beaten by the Indonesian police, but released because of her U.S. passport.

    Of course America installed the evil Suharto (who also killed 600,000 of his own people with 'death lists' from the CIA as documented in declassified papers) & so the media basically refused to cover her story.

  • 911 is being covered up. she does nothing to promote uncovering what happpened. She is no different than any other main stream journalist, she just has a "left" spin on her persona. How such a story, what ever the truth is, shall come to light seems impossible when even Amy Gray stays in the shadows.

  • Canada yesterday deported to the US the first American army deserter fleeing the Iraq war across the US-Canadian border.

    Robin Long, 25, faces a possible court martial and jail, and even redeployment to Iraq.

    He joined the army in 2003, after the invasion of Iraq, but became troubled by the war.

    In 2005 he fled to Canada and applied for refugee status, because the US army wanted him to participate in what he called an "illegal war of aggression in Iraq

  • what does your comment have anything to do with this video?...spam

  • Sorry, my comments on this video did not make any sense to you. I did not make any comments on the video anyway. Now is it making some sense to you? There were some people who left the comments and they were braging about Iraq victory and I put the piece of news here that soldiers are least interested dying in Iraq. About 200 soliders took asylum in Canada. Btw, my comments were more than a month old, so please don't bother reacting if comments are quite old.

  • Its easy for them to brag about Iraq because they heard it from the talk show hosts.:)

    Its easy to talk when they are not the ones going to fight...like the polititions who sent them.

  • I love my country and my soldiers. I want them to be safe and happy among their family. I want 9/11 free investigations and who were responsible for that their executions and graves at Ground Zero.

  • i dont like the way this klown harrass amy with that question!...amy knowz damn well wut happen in 911!...she cant just blurt it out u fool!...we need amy 2 focus on real new for thoze who want da truth!...we need her 2 cont. waking up the idiots who are brainwashd by the "mass corporate media"!

  • Google 'stranger than fiction zionism' that's what the 911 truth movement lacks...

    peace

  • I suppose that makes me a gatekeeper does it?

    -he patiently awaits the cries of "Yes it does you reptilian scum!"-

    Also where does this Freemasonry thing come from, I've never heard anything quite so absurd in my life. Literally.

  • A gatekeeper is generally someone in a position of influence or having credibility. I can't say I know of the highly influential or much respected Matt Van Sickle, so I guess you're out for that role.

  • Being highly influentual and respected (which in for the examples I gave is disputable anyway) doesn't denote a higher capacity for truth.

  • It denotes a higher capacity for investigating the truth, not necessarily finding it (at least on a grand scale of public awareness). Unfortunately, there are one too many drooling, sychophantic Chomskyites who follow his word as gospel truth. If the man would even entertain some independent research into the matter, he has the ability to influence many a mind. Do you disagree?

  • Chomsky has in fact consistently advocated independent research into the matter though It would be true to say that does not himself entertain 9/11Truth ideas. But if people are believing things because Chomsky says so then we are in trouble, would you not agree?

  • Absolutely, I agree. It worries me that there is no curiosity or even passive interest for anything of significance, let alone 9/11. But, the bottom line is, until we can reach the stage where people become enlightened again and exercise some personal accountability for learning and knowledge, we need people like Goodman, Chomsky, and Moore to start speaking up and it might as well be truthful while we're at it.

  • My understanding of the term Gatekeeper, in this context, is one who filters or censors information.

  • In the literal sense, it can mean many things. In the pejorative sense, it is more closely alligned to what I said. Censoring or filtering information is certainly valid, but it need only apply to someone in a real position to censor or filter it. You're not. You can omit information, but you have no influence to censor or filter it because you're on the same playing field as me -- just another "passer by" online (I couldn't resist the pun).

  • I don't see that harassing people like Chomsky, Goodman, and Moore is a productive way of investigating any aspect of 9/11. There are similar individuals (Zinn, Fisk) who are sympathetic to this movement and even that doesn't amount to anything. Does anyone actually expect the opinions of the aforementioned to make the slightest difference? If I was serious about this I would abhor such tactics. It's all a little desperate and there are other issues.

  • "Harrassing" them to investigate isn't the intent. The intent is to garner attention and flush out truth from people in positions of prominent influence. The more people with influence on board, the better. And yes, I believe their opinions would make a difference. Unfortunately, we live in a society devoid of fact-checking and independent research, so we rely on opinions of famous people. At this point, drawing attention to the issue is a starting point. Plus, it's not the ONLY method.

  • Do you believe in NWO, Illuminati etc?

  • I do, but probably not in the pejorative sense you are going to imply with the next round of anticipated ridicule. Is there a group of global elite who are pushing to consolidate power and economic interest for their own benefit? Only the truly naive would argue otherwise. Are there reptilian, blood-sucking shapeshifters who rule the world? I highly doubt it.

  • How do you know what I am going to "imply with the next round of anticipated ridicule"?

    I just wanted to know whether I was conversing with a sober mind thats all and because I may not agree with points that is not to be mistaken for ridicule.

  • I DO however ridicule the David Icke's of the world because they are not open to civilised intelligent discussions such as this.

  • David Icke is incredibly sharp and enlightened on a number of things -- I think the vast majority. What destroys his credibility is when he starts talking about shapeshifting reptiles and aliens ruling us all. Even if true, it diverts attention from serious avenues of change. But, then again, I don't think he's all that concerned with being ridiculed. He is only interested in sharing the truth as he sees it.

  • Haha. I don't. I was just expecting it. Usually, that question isn't asked unless there is some rabid skepticism or attendant poo-pooing of it. So yes, I was making an assumption. But, am I that off-base? The fact that you want to know whether you're conversing with a "sober mind" would seem to imply you think only a drunken fool would believe there is a NWO.

  • No that's not the sense in which I meant. I personally disagree that there is a NWO conspiracy because I think that if there was then "they" would at the very least try to hide it. Systems of power are actually more transparent than people like Alex Jones would give them credit for. You can find out who "owns" the world on Wikipedia for Chrsts sake!

  • Well, I would say your criticisms fall short for a few reasons:

    (1) Yes, a lot of the information is easily accessible, but if not promoted, only a small minority will independently research it. Thus, why the majority is in the dark;

    (2) They DO try to hide it, but there is only so much you can hide. Rather, they do well to spin, distort, and mislead. However, people in positions of power are often guilty of hubris; looking down on people as foolish and stupid. They don't care if caught.

  • Certainly I would agree because if you look at declassified documents from centres of power these are their stated goals, to essentially atomise and distract the stupid majority with popular consumption and run off to the bank. It is slightly more complicated than that of course but that is a condensed version. So I am not in disagreement with you.

  • Back to 9/11 I would say this: those that question the official story need to research, find evidence (I'm not saying they don't have any now) and keep building the case. If this is done seriously then the truth may be reached. I don't think anyone can or should say anymore than that.

  • Well, I agree, but there are literally thousands of architects, engineers, scholars, professors, government officials, intelligence officials, pilots, etc. who are questioning it, if not calling it a straight up inside job. The research is there. What we need is more media attention and a mobilized effort. What hinders the movement are idiotic claims like the planes hitting the towers were mere holographic images.

  • Good talking to you sir and I cannot say more or better than you have in your previous point(I've been interested in this topic since David Ray Griffin's book came out in 2004), but for now I need to get some sleep.

    Peace.

  • get real all these years after and we still dont know the truth are we that sad lol fuck call me when we ready to bring justice to those that died on that day asking this bitch questions like there gonna launch an investagation cause amy said so....put the nina to the mug and see em move were the only country left with a right to bare arms use it

  • It isn't progressive. They are a part of the left, but they are part of the loony left.

  • "They" are from both the left and the right-- clearly you don't know much about the 9-11 truth movement. A large portion of it is actually Libertarian: believing in smaller government, less regulations, more freedom for the individual, strong national sovereignty. Others disagree with Libertarian ideas but agree about 9-11: truth attracts people whatever their basis. Outside of the U.S. the movement includes actual govt. ministers from various parties in Italy, Japan, Germany, and on and on.

  • I know that they are both left and right and know plenty about this "movement". I also know that to make up wild, baseless conspiracy theories for the sake of personal excitement debases the memories of those who died on 911, distracts us from the real work of ending the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as distracts people from all current struggles for social justice.

    You are the one who does not know much, but you would be better informed if you read the Popular Mechanics report.

  • i don't see the "911 truth" movement as a progressive movement, so much as i see it a paleoconservative movement.

  • Our government has been caught recklessly lying to its people . . . it wasn't one lie but many lies and euphemisms over decades. So what AMy Goodman states is simply a policy of truth. When people try to hard "send the right message" they often obsure the truth. We can not operate as a democracy if we don't have the truth. Nowhere in the roots of this country does it say that nationalism comes before truth. Amy is very very consistent on this. Check the facts. Check the facts on 911 truth too.

  • Lets support each other for the greatest good & discuss smaller differences along the way! Amy Goodman, Ciny Shehann, Norm Chomsky, Dennis Kucinnich, your family and Ron Paul need you more than ever now. Its family reunion time! We Hope to see you all in DC for the Ron Paul Freedom March (TBA)

  • don't put ron paul in with those people.

  • Paul is honest and has principles, you gotta give him that.

  • Divide and conquer is a great tactic to disrupt movements. Stick undercover agents in to spread dissent within the movement. I smell a big rat in the 9/11 truth movement. Start looking for that (or those) rat (rats) and stop picking on Goodman.

  • Divide and conquer is a tactic of the Freemasons and all rats like Amy Goodman. Check out her body language when asked if she would answer a question. Asking tips her off and she prepares and the hand on the chin is deception. Don't you think they have been trained how to deal with questions. And ALWAYS her little friend finds some way to thwart probing. It's ensemble hot potato tossing.

  • "ensemble hot potato tossing." Ahahahahahahahahahahah thats pathetically funny and you sir are David Icke (which I am aware you will take as a compliment!)

    By the way I am a reptilian and a Freemason and I AM taking over the world.

  • I think Zwicker is not an undercover agent for anything but money, insecurities, and revenge on his idol Chomsky, whom shattered him.

  • Did you see the guy who was asking the questions? Did you see all the people around the table throwing questions and comments at her? I wonder how they looked. I agree she looked a little uneasy. I could see that. You know what that proves? Nothing.

  • boland44 they were Americans asking questions.

    She is a trained reporter. Not much should make her feel uneasy except..knowingly telling a lie. Like you. Why attack the people asking a simple question. Answering questions is a part of her job. Tell me boland44...CIA/FBI...no your a Boy Scout. No you are an errand boy. Depopulation of the planet INCLUDES YOU SHITHEAD.

  • bad way to do an interview. you said "one question"

  • Ford Foundation

  • jamieblonde, are you really Bill O'Reilly?? Islamofascist terrorism? Diseased movement? Please turn off FOX news for a minute and get back to reality.

  • The huge Israeli spy ring round in the US does imply links to Zionism of course.

    But PNAC, the people who quite possibly orchestrated this thing appear pretty bi-lateral, they want to strengthen plutocracy in both nations.

    We should not fall into the trap of blaming 'Jews' or (as the official story would has us believe) 'Arabs'. When the bigger picture implies otherwise. The interests lie mainly in consolidation of the worlds resources in less and less hands.

  • Every one is far left to you people. The Dutch the Canadians the Japanese, the pope. Only a few crackpots like yourself, the Likud and the Republican parties are "normal people". If you ever drive in England and the radio warns about a lone loon driving on the wrong side of the road you'll feel like the only normal person alive!

  • Everybody knows the 911 myth stinks! The 911 truth movement is great just as long as they don't start to sound like crackpots trying to guess what exactly happened. Where is the genuine gov investigation ie. why all the holes in the official story?! Heads need to roll at NORAD, FAA, FEMA, Pentagon: hand over the evidence! Officials need to prove beyond doubt that 911 was not a case of high treason or be tried, not promoted!
