Terrorstorm

Bought it at Barnes & Noble, for God's sake, so it can't be all that subversive. But Alex Jones' Terrorstorm DVD is pretty mind boggling, and I'd have to say that even though I was familiar with 80% of the content, it was worth doing. Highlights were the story of the London bus bombings, which was all new to me, and the information about thermite bombs being used on the World Trade Center buildings. I'd heard about the latter previously--even read the article by the scientist who was interviewed on the DVD--but seeing a close up of the WTC building as he talked about it was chilling. The close up very clearly shows molten metal dripping from the corner of the building before the collapse. Even the conventional explanations agree that the temperature of the burning fuel was not sufficient to melt steel (see the Popular Mechanics book, Debunking 9/11 on this), so what the hell is that shit? And, of course, there were many reports of molten metal found after the collapse. The London bus bombing material was amazing. The part that got to me the most was when they talked about the anti-terorism exercise which was running at the same time--which included exactly the same targets. Are we actually supposed to believe that bullshit? Of course, the same thing happened on 9/11. They just happened to be running exercises which included planes crashing into buildings--some sources even say planes crashing into the Pentagon--at the same time that it was happening in the real world. (If this is the real world.)

At any rate . . . this DVD was well worth the $15 or $20 I spent for it, even if Alex Jones' voice is a little grating. (I know it's petty, and I apologize for this, but I have to admit that hearing him pronounce the word "naked" as "nekid" really bugged me. I will say three Heil Bushes as penance.)

The Crest's "Skeptik" has been running through my head for the past 24 hours. Perhaps the lead line from the title track should be on a banner for this blog: "I've grown skeptical / Not too acceptable . . . neither robot nor U.S. vegetable . . . . " (Great album, by the way, and still available on Amazon HERE.)

P.S. Well, that was a long time ago, before I knew what an evil bastard Alex Jones was. Sorry I gave him my $20 now, for sure.
