RE: On the Lies of 9/11

in #politics8 years ago

What would you say is the most reliable source of news that you trust to form your beliefs about 9/11?

I actually spoke with my father about this. It's interesting to think about what we really need to know as the American public.

Did Clinton's scandal affect how he was as a president? I don't think so. I was young, but if I never knew about his personal life, I wouldn't feel cheated as an American.

How much do we really wish to about topics like terrorism? It's interesting to see how a person like Snowden is considered both a hero and a villian.

I tend to fall in the middle. Sometimes I feel that safety is violated by too much data being leaked, but things like Hillary's e-mails leaking are also important to know how foolishly a potential president could be.

Some info being leaked could cause an unnecessary panic, but in general I tend to believe in more transparency if that doesn't cause imminent danger. It's a fine line and I think you made a very thought provoking article @steemrollin

That's up to you to find sources if you want to peel the layers of lies. It's been 15 years so most have moved on and that might be ok. The power of governments come from perpetuating lies so rather than fuel any of the few flames that are left, perhaps it's better to move on and focus on building the future. Perhaps this platform will be a place for discovery, but it may not be the right time for that.
