Why was the military getting so much credit on the 9/11 anniversary?

[Bad Boy Dazza]

Lots of people in the military aren't there for me, they are there for themselves.  A career move.  Also for free education, free medical etc.

Send some of them to battle and they will shit themselves and probably run away or hide.

The military slice of the budget pie, must be maintained, and increased whenever possible. Heck, Eisenhower warned of the ever-growing 'Military Industrial' complex when exiting office. No one has really seemed up to the task of doing anything about it. Just so much gravy to be had.

exactly.  i'm for "gubernment jerbs" like i'm for a deep tissue massage, but the machine's become a hungry monster. hell, they make video games now.

Well if the military shot the plane down then wouldn't that mean that 9/11 was not an inside job?

it would mean any investigation by this govt - which lied about a LOT of things we know already - woudn't be credible.

An independent investigation - scientists, physicists - with none of the politics or blame - would be ideal.

yeah, but they're also on someone's payroll (usually government), so it'd be hard to find someone who's unbiased.

maybe - but just putting the evidence on a national/world stage will be enough to tell the world THE TRUTH.  Sure, you'll have govt hackks selling their story.  But some things you just can't lie thru.
