Just a guess: what's called American exceptionalism, a
sort of national hubris that enormously magnifies our
negative karma by inspiring outrage rather than self-
examination when bad things happen to us.

He did. He said it was because of widespread superstition which hindered 
development like in the West.

  
I could go on all day about horrific occurrences throughout the world that MMY 
never explained in terms of that nation having bad karma. 

Should he spend all his time explaining the problems here, there and everywhere

MMY always pointed out that every time something bad happens to America, it's 
because of our bad karma.  He never really explained why Afghanistan has had 
such atrocities for the last 50 years or why India has been such a poverty 
stricken area for so long.  I could go on all day about horrific occurrences 
throughout the world that MMY never explained in terms of that nation having 
bad karma.   

So I guess my question is..why is MMY so selective to point out our bad 
karma when it is quite obvious our bad karma isn't nearly as bad as most other 
countries?  (that is of course assuming that karma is the primary reason for 
each nation's well-being or lack thereof).

I don't think it was in any way a blatant conspiracy. I do recall Condaleeza 
Rice's first comments on the news about it. She said they knew a plane could be 
hijacked, but had no idea someone would fly it into a building (!). So the way 
I read it is that the PNAC cabal was picking up intel of an impending action 
against the US and let it happen so they could unleash the American war machine 
again, this time in Iraq. I don't think they knew the specifics of 911. Then 
again, they weren't too concerned about how a hostile action against the US 
might manifest, since they were planning to use it as a catalyst for war, 
regardless.

Uh-huh.  Just as I thought, you haven't even looked at any of the 
speculation on 9-11.  Part of the scenario were some "remodeling" on the 
building prior to 9-11 that lead to some areas being closed and 
allegedly that was when the explosives were planted.  I guess you assume 
some janitor might have alerted authorities.  5000 government employees 
wouldn't have been involved.  Only a couple hundred at best and most so 
compartmentalized that they had no idea of their involvement.

A lot of people don't want to take a position other than the "official 
conspiracy theory" on 9-11 even though there was a lot of evidence it 
was a false flag event because they don't want their bruise their egos 
and be called a "conspiracy theorist".  I could give a shit.

To plant hidden explosives inside the WTC, to explode 
AFTER the planes hit, someone would have had to bypass 
all the video cameras and security inside the WTC. 

But, that feat would pale in comparison to getting over

So, you're thinking that explosives were planted in the 
WTC and timed to go off at almost the exact time the 
planes hit the WTC? How would anyone know WHEN EXACTLY 
the planes would hit the building, so they could activate 
the explosions AFTER but no BEFORE the planes hit?

We all know that the disastrous attack has been planned 
and executed by the American CIA and the Israeli Mossad, 
right? So that the U.S. and it's allies could accuse 
the Taliban and then invade Afghanistan? 

So, for what reason would the U.S. invade Iraq, since 
it is obvious that Saddam had nothing to do with the WTC 
attack of 9/11? To drive the world to 'doomsday' by 
starting World War III? 

It doesn't make any sense that anyone but a fringe 
nutcase would believe this, but it looks like a few 
FFL informants really do believe in doomsday scenarios.

funding because of this, and TM is a recmmended rehabilitation technique

nueroscientist of Russia was astounded by the EEG patterns. In addition,
modern physics comes to the same conclusions that Maharishi expounded

Maybe, but can anyone here explain how one of the hijackers that went
with the plane into that massive ball of flame on hitting one of the
towers, from which NOTHING was recovered of the aicraft, somehow,
dropped his passport in that ball of flame, the passport wisked itself
out of there, dropped to the ground and was picked up on hood of a car
on the ground amongst the endless dust, completely unscorched or damaged
in any way, by a policemen. Then the CIA post this finding of the
passport as further proof of their claim of who the hijackers were.
This alone is beyond belief, but I suppose by some miracle the
hijacker's passport could have landed there, in perfect condition, as
the ONLY thing that survived the explosion and massive ball of fire
(yeah rightno chance).

BUT, then it is discovered that this hijacker is alive and well and
working as a pilot or something in the middle east. He was not there.

Can someone here please give me a rational explanation for these known
facts?

One of the most difficult to deny anti-conspiracy theory facts is that
Russia (or any state wanting to embarrass America) has not come out
with anything to expose the USA.

I'm thinking that they've got enough mojo to have looked into the 9-11
issues using spy sources and that they would have ratted out the whole

So, it didn't happen, and to me, that means that the whole operation
was done by a very small number of people maybe, or that it is what it
was portrayed to be.

Anyone got a good counter to this "Russians wudda exposed it" concept?

I've looked in great detail at the "whole story" behind
the controlled-demolition theory. I'd be willing to bet
a large sum that I've looked more closely at those claims
and the stories behind them than you have looked at the
evidence rebutting them.

I was all too willing to believe the Bushies did it at
first. Then I looked at the evidence pro and con and
realized it wasn't plausible.

Oh, please, Angela. It doesn't matter how many
"international conventions" there are if they
can't come up with any hard evidence and can't
*rebut* the great deal of hard evidence there is
*against* their theories.

(Again, I make a distinction between the theory
that they knew in advance, which I think is
plausible, and the controlled-demolition and
missile-at-the-Pentagon theories, which are not
even remotely plausible.)

Conventions don't prove theories. *Evidence*
proves theories. It also *disproves* theories.

And when you get to the point of suggesting that
all the videos from public sources have been
Photoshopped to make the debris appear to fall
faster than the towers, you just lose all
credibility.

It's lots better than it used to be about people

Moreover, the thing HAS been exposed.  The rest of the
world is not as blind as we seem to be at home.  There
was a big international 9/11 truth convention a couple
of weeks ago in Australia, for instance.  It was
sponsored and hosted by a Japanese member of
Parliament.

You're making the mistake that many who bash 9-11 conspiracy theorist 
make and that is that we are saying the Bush administration did it.  Yup 
they are too incompetent to pull something like that off.  We're talking

Thing is, what's become obvious is that our rogue
government is not only evil but *incompetent*. Even
if there weren't oogobs of evidence against their
having done 9/11, there's no way they could have
pulled it off successfully and not had it thoroughly

Many of them are easily refutable.

Some of the ones that seem to suggest foreknowledge
look credible to me. But many of those, if they're
accurate, refute the "controlled demolition" notion
because they suggest the foreknowledge was of the
hijackings and attacks by air. If everything was
so carefully planned to demolish the buildings right
after the attacks, they'd have had to know which
planes were going to be hijacked, and they wouldn't

Patrick,

Did you see that article "Former Governor Jesse Ventura: WTC Collapse
A Controlled Demolition" at http://tinyurl.com/33arqq ?

More and more celebrities are putting their public image behind this
issue. Too bad Jesse was an actor/wrestler first -- if a lifelong
politician came out with this stance, there'd be more clout to it.

If only a true smoking-gun was available that the masses could be told
of in a ten second sound bite.

Like:  

--Whistleblowers who document how they installed explosive charges
into the buildings before 9-11, and now they feel so guilty.  We know
the buildings' were emptied or partially emptied for days at a time
when "inspectors" were "working on the buildings."  Like that.

--New videos taken by by-standers could show a rocket entering the
Pentagon, small explosions at the base of Building 7, etc.

--The "let's roll" guy shows up suntanned on a beach in Mexico.

--Some kid could have secretly cell-phone recorded/taped Bush
listening to that guy who whispers in his ear, and we hear that guy
say, "It's been done, the second tower has been hit, and the Pentagon
is next."

--Bush has a stroke and in his ensuing confused state he blurts out
9-11 secrets to 30 emergency room staffers.

--The NEXT bombing is done to insure McCain gets elected, and they
botch the deal so much that the truth is easily seen in the first TV
reports at the scene(s) of carnage.  

--The BBC reporter documents how come they KNEW Building 7 was down 30
minutes before it came down.

--Aliens from outer space arrive and say that they're so disgusted
with the vile acts that they have announced themselves 2,000 years
earlier than they had planned to do so in order to expose the evil
behind 9-11.  I'm just trying to have a complete list, see?

You're not even making any sense - a plane was missing. Everyone

Very few really.


That nothing can simply be a mystery, a puzzle, with no
certain resolution?


That's a sad state of affairs. But it is a part of modern life, any  
day, anywhere.


With a thousand distractions, it not unusual not to feel resolution  
because you're not grounded in something more unchanging.



For example, someone who has led a clean life,
does not smoke, gets plenty of exercise and eats well, but gets
cancer. That person wants an answer and there might not be one. But
they come up with one anyway: alar on the apples, that vaccine with
trace amounts of formaldehyde, or whatever. People like to have
answers and people like to have answers that are in proportion to the
question.


It's just not always that simple.


So, you can have relatively normal people believing extraordinary

Normal people with odd ideas is an important part of my life. I  
couldn't imagine life without it!


Despite that, knowing some bit of psychology, there is a genre, a  
psychological profile that could bring organized appreciation of this  
conspiracy meme. Then with that organization, when needed, healing  
could be the outcome...not that that is always the need or the goal.

"Conspiracy theory"  means a theory about a conspiracy without

"conspiracy theory."

It is not a battle Edg.   One of the most difficult things for people to
do is to change their mind.  Remember when you view the evidence that
human nature has us favoring evidence that supports our position and
discounting evidence that does not.  How many times do you find yourself
saying "yes, but. . .?"  There is plenty of research on this cognitive
bias and it is helpful to know if you want to think critically.  So,
take a deep breath, step back,  and convince yourself that you have no
position on the issue, and then read.

Yeah, I know, and it sucks to be me when I read your below questions
that seem to point to the event being far too big an operation and
involve too many folks in-the-know.

My general answer to you is that it could have taken far fewer
"actually in the know" workers guiding dozens of others to install
devices that they were told were merely electric monitors but in fact
were bombs with connections to a master-bomb- blowing-precisel y-timed
gizmo-thingamajiggy -whatchacallit- kazinski- model-666.

I used your same reasoning below to finally quell my Y2K fears several
months ahead of 2000 -- too many folks would know that their
organization was about to fold due to computer malfunctions and would
have sent the stock market into an avalanche of options, gold would
have gone through the roof, many whistle blowers coming forth, etc.

I'll go back to square one and do my research by looking at the
debunking sites againhoping something clicks and I can get
Building 7 out of my mind. 

It should have fallen differently if it was a "natural" collapse --
that's my intuition. Hunks and chunks and whole portions would have
fallen first, the structure would have leaned in the direction of the
bulge, listed and fell that way. But the thing just fell straight
down. The guy who said "we pulled it" could not have meant that he'd

putting the explosive charges around the building to get it to come

Stay tuned. I'm not fit to battle it out with you and Judy, but I

This is such a zombie thread like the Terminator!  You think it's dead
and then its baaack.

Let me get this straight...no investigative journalist has been able
to make themselves instantly famous and worth millions by finding out
any definitive proof of a 9-11 conspiracy? And everyone in on the
conspiracy has had the seamless commitment to not rat out anyone else?
 And these are the same assholes who elbow me out of the way getting
on the metro in DC?  No one wanted to become instantly famous by
ratting out the others, writing a book, becoming the darling of the
talk show circuit and a national hero for exposing the plot?  No one
bragged to their girlfriend or boyfriend after a couple of Cosmos
about what a big 9-11 pimp they were? No one got cold feet and figured
they had better make a deal before it all comes out?  No one got
religion and realized what a demonic prick they had been and how they
could get right with the Lord?  No changes of heart? And every single
person on all the groups who investigated this for months were in on
it too?  Perfect secrecy was maintained by ALL of them? No politician
 wanted to become a national hero, no member of congress or the house
with higher aspirations, none of them were able to investigate this at
least as well as the conspiracy guys?

Any theory that includes a whole bunch of Washington A-holes keeping
their mouths shut and not throwing their co-conspirators under the bus
to save their own ass and their family's, or people not wanting to
become an instant millionaire hero by exposing this with real
evidence, is gett'g a big "yeah right" from me.  

But despite the inability of highly motivated reporters who would love

Except that all the debris was spread out
*ahead of the plane*, in an area it had not
flown over. If it had been shot down before
the crash, the debris would have fallen
behind where it crashed. The debris was
ejected when the plane hit the ground and
blown up and out in the direction the plane
was heading.

Over 1,500 pieces of bodies were found.

Not when they crash flying 575 mph upside down
at an 80 degree to the ground.

> The phone call was another huge problem.

That phone call was made at 9:58 and lasted
until 9:59. The plane was at 6,000 feet at
that point. Then, before it crashed, it rose
to 10,000 feet. If what the man on the phone
had heard was a missile striking the plane,
it's just a *teensy bit* unlikely that the
plane would have been able to gain 4,000
feet in altitude *after* it had been hit.

But we now know it wasn't "disproportionate"
at all. I mean, you could just as well say
that Hiroshima and Nagasaki "reacted"
disproportionately to the dropping of a
couple of bombs small enough to be carried
by B-29s.

In the first place, using a lack of personal experience
to attack someone because they've criticized you is
inherently low-vibe.  As I said, it doesn't get much
lower.

So it's not any the less low-vibe to use what someone
has said about their personal experience to one
audience for the purpose of attacking that person
before a different audience.

In the third place, it's downright moronic to assume
that a person's spiritual experience is *static*--
that what they've reported at one point is never
going to change.

> Here's your opportunity to set the record straight:

No, I don't discuss my spiritual experience on demand,
as I've told you many times before.  I'll talk about
it when and if I feel like talking about it; I don't feel 
the need, as you obviously do, to boast about it or
play dueling experiences in an attempt to put somebody
down.

Well, yes, one can certainly "base" (I think you meant
"blame") you for making that assumption.  It makes no
sense, for one thing, as noted.  Also as noted, your
tendency both to make boastful claims about your own
spiritual experience and to use it as a weapon against
your critics when they decline to do the same reveals
that, as I said:

It would be for someone who's never had spiritual
experiences, yes indeed.  Were you perhaps assuming
that *only* those who had never had spiritual
experiences would take that position?

Now, would you like to attempt to justify your other
major misstatement as well?  To wit:

I was merely citing your *own* words, back on
a.m.t. when you were a little more honest, and
stated freely (many times) that you had never had 
any experience of enlightenment/witnessing in activity
that had lasted more than a couple of minutes after
program (as opposed to, say, several days, weeks,
months or years, as reported by other posters there). 

Then for some reason you stopped admitting your lack
of such experiences publicly, and started hinting that 
what you'd said before wasn't the whole story. Whatever.  :-)

Here's your opportunity to set the record straight:
Have you ever had an experience of 24/7 witnessing
(the experience you yourself tend to associate with
CC) that has lasted longer than a couple of minutes?
For example, have you ever had such an experience 
that has ever lasted an hour?  A day?  Several days?
A week?  Two weeks?  A month?  A year?

If you don't answer, you can hardly base us for assuming
that your experience is limited to what you used to talk
about before you stopped talking about such things.  :-)

> It certainly makes the point that having spiritual
> experiences does not a spiritual person make, though.

Yeah, we know that's your position.  Interesting
position for someone who's never *had* those 
experiences to take, eh?  :-)  :-)  :-)

There really isn't anything much lower-vibe than
claiming those who criticize you do so because they
haven't had as much "personal, subjective spiritual
experience" as you have.

It certainly makes the point that having spiritual
experiences does not a spiritual person make, though.

That was nothing compared to the deeply spiritual way that Barry 
responded to my request that he actually tell us which other 
spiritual techniques that he claimed that were out there that 
were "effortless".

Oh my. The bizzare little dream worlds people weave for themselves. A
coping mechanism I suppose. Posts like are wonderful tools for
culturing compassion -- by building recognizing and remembering how
challenged and deluded some people are.

This coming from the person who has spent, literally, every day of 
the last 10 years of his life in childish, meaningless, hour-upon-

interested in.

Interesting that Barry claims to know our
history of personal, subjective spiritual
experience.

, and all three have a history of

In fact, only one of us has done so (the
person currently posting as anon_sleuth_ff).

Oh, wait, Shemp *did* have some questions about
Barry's claim to have seen Frederick Lenz
levitate that Barry didn't appreciate.

One might suggest this, but if one suggested it
about the thread in question, thread, one would
be quite wrong.

But being wrong has never stopped Barry from making
suggestions yet.

If you look back on FFL and on alt.m.t, you'll find
that Barry is almost always driven to write a "guest
editorial" concerning threads I've been heavily
involved in.

"Got all the publicity?"

I was partly joking about the attempt to hijack FFL
and turn it into the cesspool that you guys turned
a.m.t. into, but I guess maybe I was onto something.
Do you *really* think in terms of "getting all the 
publicity" when posting here?  Is *that* why you
post so much?

Sad, if so.

I was away all weekend, and returned to find Fairfield
Life having been turned into an intellectual sewer.  I
was merely commenting on who managed to do that, and
what their inner motives might have been *for* doing it.

I didn't notice that this weekend you were one of the 
three people I was speaking about who managed to make
the entire newsgroup all about them and their insecurities. 
But judging by the defensive way you jumped right in here
and couldn't wait to attack me, maybe you wish you had been.

I think there is a lesson to be learned from
the veritable orgy of flatulence that was FFL
this weekend.

A few people, with different political leanings
but with one thing in common, managed to side-
track ALL spiritual discussion on the newsgroup
and turn Fairfield Life into a 500+-post demon-
stration of, "It's all about US...*WE* are what's 
important here!"

The one thing that these three posters have in
common?  All three have a history of being a little 
light in the loafers in terms of personal, subjective 
spiritual experience, and all three have a history of 
reacting badly and agressively when people here who 
*have* had such experiences choose to report them.

One might suggest that the people who have no exper-
iences with higher states of consciousness of their
own to talk about, and who have a history of being
agressive and skeptical when others talk about them,
might subconsciously be wanting to shift the focus of
Fairfield Life *AWAY* from such discussions, and 
*TOWARDS* discussions that focus on "I am right, you
are wrong," "I have no hidden agenda but you have one,"
and "I'm smart and you're not." In other words, the 
mundane level at which *they* live and operate.

Voila.  A few 500-post slugfests and all that gets
talked about is mundane, everyday political bull-
shit, and no one is talking about enlightenment
any more.

Nope, not the point.  There was never any question
that the trading was anomalous to a statistically
significant degree.

The issue is, and has been from the beginning, your
attempts to divert the discussion to your straw man
notwithstanding, the *reasons* for the statistically
significant anomalous trading.

The 9/11 commission believes, or says it believes, it
found the reasons, i.e., they did not occur by chance,
but there were benign explanations for the anomalies.

If you trust the 9/11 commission, fine, the whole issue
has been settled to your satisfaction.

I would love to. Do you have links? 


Did you read the full quote?

The National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States
(also known as the "9/11 Commission") investigated these rumors and
found that although some unusual (and initially seemingly suspicious)
trading activity did occur in the days prior to September 11, it was
all coincidentally innocuous and not the result of insider trading by
parties with foreknowledge of the 9/11 attacks:



"Highly publicized allegations of insider trading in advance of 9/11
generally rest on reports of unusual pre-9/11 trading activity in
companies whose stock plummeted after the attacks. Some unusual
trading did in fact occur, but each such trade proved to have an
innocuous explanation. For example, the volume of put options —
instruments that pay off only when a stock drops in price — surged in
the parent companies of United Airlines on September 6 and American
Airlines on September 10 — highly suspicious trading on its face. Yet,
further investigation has revealed that the trading had no connection
with 9/11. A single U.S.-based institutional investor with no
conceivable ties to al Qaeda purchased 95 percent of the UAL puts on
September 6 as part of a trading strategy that also included buying
115,000 shares of American on September 10. Similarly, much of the
seemingly suspicious trading in American on September 10 was traced to
a specific U.S.-based options trading newsletter, faxed to its
subscribers on Sunday, September 9, which recommended these trades.
The SEC and FBI, aided by other agencies and the securities industry,
devoted enormous resources to investigating this issue, including
securing the cooperation of many foreign governments. These
investigators have found that the apparently suspicious consistently
proved innocuous."

Note that *even if* these "innocuous" explanations are
correct, the investigations were conducted *because*
there was statistically significant anomalous trading.

So all your huffing and puffing about statistical
significance was, as I pointed out repeatedly, a non
sequitur.

And Mark Meredith finds the supposed explanations
unconvincing, so we're back where we started when I
first brought up the anomalies.

If you trust the 9/11 commission, fine, then you can
rest comfortably in the assumption that all the
anomalies have been explained.

But it's quite amusing that you're not demanding to
see the documentation for *its* conclusions.
