classless morons ... why not do the planet a fav and eat a bullet and show some guts for once ..... you know just a thought ...

U.S. troops in Iraq may soon receive a raft of letters from a group claiming 9/11 was an 'inside job

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,365401,00.html

U.S. troops serving in Iraq may be getting more letters during mail call, but they won't be care packages — one group is sending them letters and DVDs claiming 9/11 was an “inside job” and that they should rethink why they’re fighting.

Mark Dice, founder of The Resistance, which he calls a media watchdog group, says that the U.S. government was responsible for the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and that the armed forces should know it.

“People want the facts. The Marines are hungry for the truth — what got them there [in Iraq], why are they risking their lives — and we’re going to help them understand that,” he told FOX News.

Dice plans to send letters and declassified government documents that he says can prove the government’s responsibility for the terrorist attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people — and he’s urging others to do the same.

But not everyone is thrilled that troops on the front lines may be bombarded by mail from Dice, a conspiracy theorist who believes that Freemasons worship Satan and that “the United States military has built enormous underground cities for the political elite.”

“These letters will end up in the toilet or on the firing range,” said Capt. Pete Hegseth, executive director of Vets for Freedom and a veteran of the Iraq War. “They just laugh off this kind of stuff.”

Hegseth told FOX News that American troops don’t need help from Dice to figure out why they’re in Iraq.

“The fact of the matter is most soldiers and Marines understand why they’re fighting,” Hegseth said. “These are volunteers who believe in their service — they believe in the mission they’ve been sent to do.”

Dice told FOX News that he’s trying to help troops by giving a voice to people “afraid to speak up out of fear of punishment” from their superiors.

“We’re trying to create a climate that’s safe for these people to ask real questions . . . so we can get our boys back as soon as possible, safe and sound,” he said.

Dice says he is convinced that many servicemen share his views. “The Marines that I know say that 20-25 percent of the Marines believe that 9/11 was an inside job and they’re very angry,” he said.

Hegseth, however, wasn’t convinced. “We represent 24,000 veterans at Vets for Freedom,” he said. “We believe in finishing this mission, we believe in what we’re doing and that’s how most veterans and troops on the ground feel.”

Hegseth wasn’t worried that the troops would be deterred by the mailings. “I don’t think they’re going to want to take the time to open the mail from some fringe political sect,” he said. “They’re too busy winning the war in Iraq.”

Cue the usual Bush lemmings:

THCmvp (Thinks people with whose views re: 9/11 he disagrees should "eat a bullet?" Does this guy have any idea how loony and extreme he really is? How about all the U.S. military officers and CIA agents who are on record calling the official BushCo account of 9/11 a lie? Would you like to line them up against a wall and shoot them too? How about the two chairmen of the 9/11 Commission who are on record saying their investigation was obstructed?)

Orangeatheist (Would obviously love to do for Bush what Monica did for Bill.)

TDmvp · 06-10-2008, 07:09 PM

and if you think they can't find something better to do then bother guys in the field of battle with this crap your stupider then i thought ... It is one thing to have your opinion ,and you have every right to press for others to hear it ... it is another to push your ideas on someone with more then enuff on their plate , before they inlist , or while on leave , BUT not in the field ... and yes i think eating a bullet would be way more useful then bothering these kids who right or wrong are at war ... they should take the initiative and do something useful ... just planting seeds...

Are the troops that stupid to get worked up over a letter like this ?

Spider · 06-10-2008, 07:11 PM

Besides Iraq has nothing to do with 9-11 ....so why would anyone get worked up over this ? If anything the letters would make good scratch paper to doodle on ......

Exactly! Iraq is the diversion from the CORRECT war to avenge/punish 9/11, Afghanistan.

Somebody tell me ... with just ~16,000 troops in Afghanistan these past years searching for Osama (fewer than were in the Boston Garden the other night), how is it people aren't assailing Bush as "Soft on Terror"? Why is he giving Bin Laden essentially a free pass, but still seen as tough on terror? We've had upwards of 170,000 troops in Iraq, so where's the outrage?

If this were a Democratic president, the GOP would've already drafted articles of impeachment for failing to apprehend the 9/11 criminals.

good post Buff i can agree with alot of that ..

That can all be answered with another simple question, where's the press? You'll remember, it was the press that led the hysteria in the Clinton impeachment. The American press has no appetite for Bush (so to speak).

Who are these officers and agents, and what are their claims?

Soldiers are resourceful. Whatever you send gets used.

Couldn't agree more. The Dems and the media have been sackless.
