The Horror of Nuance

Pat Curley of the Screw Loose Change blog writes about "The Horror of Censorship":

Hilariously, the dolts are all up in arms over Jesse Ventura's 9-11 fruitcake rant being removed from the Huffington Post:

"I can't believe the Huffington Post today will practice censorship," Ventura says in astonishment. "I've got news for them. ... I won't ever write for 'em again."

Of course the Huffington Post has had a long-standing policy against posting 9-11 nuttery, and while that policy has been inconsistently enforced (see here, here and here for examples of Truthiness that have been allowed to stand), it is at least well-known.

And where do the Troofers get off complaining about censorship? Do they allow me to post at 9-11 Flogger? Not on your life; I was banned over there years ago. Would they let me post at Truth Action? I haven't tried registering, but I was pretty quickly banned from their chatroom. Do they allow non-Troofers to post at the Debunkers blog? Of course not.
First off, all comments were welcome here until recently, providing they did not consist of ad hominems (exceptions were allowed from time to time on both sides; tit for tat). Now Pat, no, non-truthers cannot post here, neither can truthers, unless they write for this blog! We do however present both sides. Hence, you being quoted and linked here and linked twice (and agreed with) in my previous post. If you are OK with Huffington's content policy, then please be quiet about our comment policy!

The Washington Post Was Right About a Few Things...

...And the sooner the 9/11 truth movement can admit it the better off we will be.

A few days ago The Post stated:

YUKIHISA FUJITA is an influential member of the ruling Democratic Party of Japan...

He questions whether it (9/11) was really the work of terrorists; suggests that shadowy forces with advance knowledge of the plot played the stock market to profit from it; peddles the fantastic idea that eight of the 19 hijackers are alive and well; and hints that controlled demolition rather than fire or debris may be a more likely explanation for at least the collapse of the building at 7 World Trade Center, which was adjacent to the twin towers.
First off, terrorists were involved, but the evidence indicates that in one way or another they were patsies. Secondly, the insider trading has pretty well been debunked (granted, I just accepted this myself). And as the Screw Loose Change blog had the extreme pleasure of pointing out today, so has the idea that some of the hijackers are still alive. Good call on WTC 7 though.

Dear 9/11 truth movement,

Learn the truth and focus on key points of evidence or we are going nowhere.

Sincerely,

John-Michael P. Talboo
