If only chomsky could be as "brave" and intelligent as you, right Ptech? Then I'm sure he would support the "truth" (lol) movement.

He doesn't believe in the 9/11 conspiracy lies because he says the science used by the conspiracy liars is juvenile.
He also focuses a lot of attention on middle east politics and says that to suggest that Al Qaeda wasn't repsonsible for (or capable of) pulling off 9/11 is outrageous.


Not sure what Noam he has been reading.......... He has been calling it like is long before most of us here were even born......

I'll bet he doesn't say that either Circus, that the science the "truthers" use is juvenile. My bet is those are YOUR words.

I'll bet that your "mind" is way more closed than Chomsky's.

Let's take a look at some of Chomsky's words on 9/11 conspiracy lies.

""That's an internet theory and it's hopelessly implausible. Hopelessly implausible. So hopelessly implausible I don't see any point in talking about it." Noam Chomsky

"The evidence for either thesis (lihop,mihop) is, in my opinion, based on a failure to understand properly what evidence is." Noam Chomsky

"Take, say, the physical evidence. There are ways to assess that: submit it to specialists -- of whom there are thousands -- who have the requisite background in civil-mechanical engineering, materials science, building construction, etc., for review and analysis; and one cannot gain the required knowledge by surfing the internet.(lol) In fact, that's been done, by the professional association of civil engineers." Noam Chomsky

Some advice for conspiracy liars
"Take the course pursued by anyone who thinks they have made a genuine discovery: submit it to a serious journal for peer review and publication." Noam Chomsky

And last, Chomsky agrees with something all us skeptics constantly say. The 9/11 conspiracy lies distract people from the real atrocities.
"They (Bush Administration) may well resort to further crimes if activists here prefer not to deal with them and to focus their attention on arcane and dubious theories about 9/11."
Where Noam will not roam - Chomsky's limited dissent on 9/11 and JFK


There you go Ptech. There are Chomsky's "open minded" opinions of 9/11 conspiracy lies.

OK, you guys caught me dead to rights. My only exposure to Chomsky was excerpts from an article here and there, and an interview on some TV talk show, can't remember which.

Jeez, and I must admit after reading the above from Circus, Chomsky came up way short in the common sense department. Apparently he would not know evidence if it sat down next to him with a nametag on his jacket.

I guess there is good reason why I don't know him. With statements like those above, he comes across as moronic.

So Noam Chomsky, one of the most important intellectuals of our time, is just a moron. Ptech on the internet knows better than him. How? Because he watched ... gasp... conspiracy videos on the internet.

For years now I've been saying that I believe the hundreds of experts in relevent fields that studied the first hand primary tangible evidence. They mean more to me than amateurs that make conspiracy videos.

Chomsky agrees. If 9/11 conspiracy liars want any credibility, Chomsky says they need to submit their research to distinguised journals to pass peer review. Conspiracy liars will never do that because they rely entirely on pseudo-science and manipulation. Their "research" will never pass peer review. LOL. The last time they tried that approach (stephen jones), the professor was suspended and then decided to "retire early" so as to avoid an investigation into his "peer review" process. Now, if he had nothing to hide, he would have allowed that investigation to happen. But instead, he chose "early reitirement". LOL

What was the lesson from that event? Well, conspiracy liars learned that they can't fool the scientific community. People that actually understand science laugh uncontrollably at 9/11 conspiracy lies. Instead they prey on simple people like Ptech and Sunflower, who have been fooled by amateurs. They believe they know better. They believe they are the ones that are open minded.
But people like me, chomsky, Maher, etc. believe experts in relevant fields instead of amateurs selling dvd's and conspiracy books. If that makes us "closed minded", then so be it.
