In Defense of WWII: Chapter 5 of 5

Buchanan describes the emergence of a "Churchill cult" in America post-9/11, whereby the liberation of Iraq from Saddam was erroneously equated with the liberation of Europe from Hitler. Hanson and Hitchens contend that this diagram is, in fact, correct.

Many thanks

@SpinyNorman416 you do not need to rely on any report. find footage of the event on youtube and count for yourself.

[chrstsldr]

@SpinyNorman416 it is not non sequitur; it is anecdotal evidence for the purpose of demonstrating who has the true power in Iraq and who has the ceremonial power in Iraq.

the symbolism of city planning is universal.

[SpinyNorman416]

@chrstsldr No you don't need to be a physicist but you may have took look at reports and work outside the truth movement. The building fell in 19 seconds which has been consistently shown and agreed upon. Only those in the truth movement seem to hold onto this 10 second figure.

[SpinyNorman416]

@chrstsldr That's not an argument and you know it. You seem to want to make the link from big embassy to puppet government so bad that you're making non sequiturs. What do you know of the building permits for embassies in Iraq? The US has a large opinion of itself and gobs of money, therefore large, ostentatious, eyesore of an embassy.

@SpinyNorman416 if Iraq were truly a free society, the US could never have obtained the necessary permits to build such a gigantic complex of buildings.

[chrstsldr]

@SpinyNorman416 I have no belief structure regarding 9/11 or the invasion or Iraq. simple and objective observation of the events and acknowledgement of the historical timeline is not "conspiracy theory".

[chrstsldr]

@SpinyNorman416 cognitive dissonance is believing a 110 story building can fall in 10 seconds as a result of damage done the 92nd/98th and 78th/84th floors.

one thousand one = 10 stories ...it didn't even slow down at the bottom floors.

the recent 20 story explosive demolition (months of careful planning and placement) in Houston took about 6 seconds to fall.

you don't have to be a physicist to figure this one out.

[SpinyNorman416]

@chrstsldr "I stated the confirmation of my assumptions regarding the cognitive dissonance in your belief structure in relation to the Iraq war due to you're support of the 9/11 truth movement." This is relevant to the discussion due to its implications for world politics in particular war in the Middle East. If you don't think that 9/11 is relevant or that I said, "Your a 9/11 truther so I don't have to believe what you say" perhaps I was unclear.

[SpinyNorman416]

@chrstsldr What it means is that the US has an overly large opinion of itself and feels the need to make a big building to show off. Is this surprising? As I recall US forces are out of Iraq. If the Iraqi people want to build a larger government building they're certainly allowed to but I think that the government has bigger issues rather than trying to one up a narcissistic government building is too large.

@SpinyNorman416 "argumentum ad hominem, is an attempt to negate the truth of a claim by pointing out a negative characteristic or belief of the person supporting it."
