I don't see this as a "right and left brain" issue. It's about discriminating the authentic from the inauthentic. (And please don't mistake that for sensible/absurd or rational/irrational dichotomies, because I've found much authenticity in some absurd and irrational things.) And to me, using both intellect and intuition, I find much about today's "9/11 Truth" movement to be terribly inauthentic.
Well thats as maybe, but it HAS become a divide issue.
I guess the real question is , who is responsible for that ?
Those like myself, who refuse to believe their own eyes
werent lying to them, and happen to think that this still makes an extremely strong case, however "stoopid" such "troofs" might appear, particularly amidst those not prepared to do the "left brained" spadework.
Or those who believe that people like our friendly cab driver, featured above
isnt full of crap, and who cite this kinda nonsense as evidence that a plane did hit the pentagon.
Meanwhile, and at the same time, they suggest that we should be focusing on academic tangents beyond the grasp of the average undereducated, underpaid, overworked prole ?
BCCI, Saudi consulate, Atta and his coke binges. Mineta's testimony. Operation able Danger.
All incontrivertible I would readily agree, but you try selling that to the average Joe.
And please , dont say Im talking out of my ass here, cos I sell the "Academic tangent" evidence far more harder than I do the physical evidence, to your average Joe on a regular basis. Regrettably ,Its the physical evidence that wins hands down.
So given that this is the case, and given that the case for the physical evidence is still very strong AFAIC as all the academic tangents we can indulge ourselves in, I have a question.
Who's interests are best served by asking us
not to believe our own 'lying' eyes ?
Or justPerhaps, we should all be singing from the same, (and
still all too sparsely available )"Official conspiracy theory is a lie" hymnsheet instead ?
