So proud of those that defended the city against dangerous genocide supporters. However, they should've been better organized too many of them were arrested unfortunately.

Fair enough but can you point me to places where I can find rebutalls of this? Edit: particularly for the wtc 7 stuff, I just don't understand how a building that wasn't hit by a plan collapses.

But those are not mutually exclusive are they? I don't think anyone claims that Bush literally did all of it, at least I wouldn't. Yes, the planning was most likely not carried out by the US government itself but by Al-Qaeda who really hated the US a lot but to say that there was no foreknowledge of what was going to happen and no coverup in the aftermath doesn't match with a lot of the stuff that has come out since. Why did the CIA not inform the FBI that potentially dangerous terrorists had entered the country? How were the suspects identified that quickly? How tf do the hijackers passports get found on the sidewalk the next day? Why are there obvious flaws in the NIST report as to how WTC 7 collapsed? Highrises don't collapse at free Fall due to fire. How were they so quick to pass the Patriot act, a 134 page legal document that was passed a month and 15 days after the attack? Considering the gates 9/11 opened for the Bush Administration it's hard to argue that they would not be tempted to at least let it happen if they were informed of it beforehand.

Just blaming it on foreign policy in fairly abstract terms doesn't go far enough imo. Bush and the people around him definetely knew of the attacks and covered up their knowledge. Theres also a good case to be made that they may have faciliated the attacks to some extent. The collapes of wtc 7 is really sketchy from what I've seen but I'm open to a good explanation as to how the official explanation of that holds. It was a very clean collapse for something that was not a planned demolition although I admittedly have no clue as to how such a thing would be carried out.

 

TrueAnon turned me into a truther. Am I crazy?

 

I had an account on which I was using my usual low security password for non-sensitive accounts. That password was leaked in the recent attacks on the Internet Archive so I finally went and changed all of them to auto generated ones. I figured I'm probably not the only one on here who had an account to access some of the books that you can only borrow temporarily.

You can check whether your password was leaked on: https://haveibeenpwned.com/

Does anyone know where I can find the leak?

 

Sorry the title's bit wordy but basically I'm looking for stuff like debates that were had within the party and what ultiamtely led to the party signing off on the limited reintroduction of markets.

A tool library is so fucking sick. I wish I had one near me.

 

TIL there was a civil rights activist called Walter White

 

I see this claim made a lot: that the Soviet Union achieved economic growth that has never been seen before or after, so threw it at some angry Redditor. They brought up Japan/ South Korea from 1950-1990 and looking into it, it seems as though they are comparable, at least when using GDP South Korea actually does a lot better than the Soviet Union. Now this leaves out rapid Industrialization which I assume is what is meant with "unparraleled economic growth" and also GDP may not be the best indicator but it's still impressive. Of course Japan and SK were also subsidized by the US. Am I missing something? and does anyone have good sources on the growth of the Soviet Economy from 1921-1990?

 

What is going on, are they just doing this to muddy the water? I can't imagine ISIS is actually planning attacks on European soil that makes 0 sense.

 

I'm trying to archive an article which is exclusive to subscribers. I have a subscpription but when I archive it, it just shows the page that you would get if you aren't subscribed.

 

Looking for some good sources on what happened at Hohenschönhausen and how accurate the accusations of murder and torture are.
