After almost 25 years now, there are more things we still can learn about that day. Silverstein had signed a 99-year lease for the World Trade Center complex just weeks before the attacks. Silverstein has stated that he typically attended meetings at the World Trade Center every morning. However, on 9/11, he did not go to the office due to a medical appointment. This detail has frequently resurfaced in documentaries, news reports, and online discussions as people revisit the events of that tragic day.

    Those examples are a bit different in scale. Mk ultra only involved a couple hundred researches/agents. It also didn’t kill thousands of people and was first brought to public light in 1974, just a couple years after the program ended.

    You (should) get my point though, regardless of if deaths or coconspirators match up 1:1, things do happen that are orchestrated by multiple people that you and I do not know about, to believe otherwise is arrogant.

    The amount deaths are irrelevant (and btw about 14 boxes of paperwork were destroyed, we’ll never know what that contained…), point is that from 50-70 when the “program shut down” (…riiiiight) 20 yr, it was still a secret program and “not happening.” 4 years later turns out the “crazies” like me suggesting a government experimental conspiracy to test acid and other mind control methods on some of our nation’s most prominent assassins and murderers and creating the hippy movement by accident were right the whole time…

    As far as Ufo disclosure, I’m not really sure if that really fits into the scheme of large conspiracy. The leaks have mainly been utilized as a political tool to divert eyes from the administration, and have largely been uneventful.

    It fits, they’ve said “nuh uh” for almost 80 years and lord knows how many people have been involved in the cover up, “uh huh” still means “uh huh” even if they’re only admitting it now because of Epstein (which again let me remind you is yet ANOTHER conspiracy involving conspirators that has come to light after 20yr of operation…) if I murder someone and only admit it because it distracts from my crimes coming to light, I still murdered the guy even if the admission is “a distraction” from whatever was coming to light.

    The mossad pager bombs did kill dozens of people and injured thousands and we found out about who did it and how almost immediately.

    And how long were they working on it before we found out? The fact you seem to think you know everything in real time baffles me, you really can’t admit that maybe large organized intelligence rings may do things you don’t know about?

    I don’t think we know everything about the alphabet orgs in the government, but they really aren’t very good about keeping large and impactful programs from the public.

    That you know of.

    In general the larger a secret is the harder it is to keep people quiet. I mean hypothetically, how much money would it take to insure you didn’t go to the public about your involvement with something as horrible as 9/11?

    A few hundered thousand bucks and the assurance that you’ll kill my family if I speak up even though I won’t be believed because I don’t have concrete proof oughta cover it.

    What’s the likelihood that a bunch of blue collar workers are going to agree to demolish a building with people inside it?

    Did you properly threaten their families? Makes it more likely…

    Again I’m not saying that this is the case for 9/11 specifically, I’m saying “the government could never keep a secret” is patently ridiculous to assume.

    There’s a reason they operate in compartmentalized cells, and it’s because secrets are famously hard to keep

    Easier when

    they operate in compartmentalized cells…

    There’s a reason Northwood never happened

    Kennedy said “Er Uh, no.”

    The simple fact is there hasn’t been a single credible person to come forward in the last 25 years that has stated they were part of a conspiracy surrounding 9/11

    Is that what it would take to make you finally realize you don’t know everything about everything? Well again I wasn’t even saying 9/11 was a conspiracy but now I hope that happens just so you personally can realize the world isn’t as simple as you seem to believe.
