1. Zeitgeist is shit.
2. It's just Zeitgeist, German for 'spirit of the time'. Not ZeitGeist.
3. RE:Zeitgeist is shit.
Really shit.

I watched that a few weeks ago - someone told me it was a must-see. Biggest pile of shit since Loose Change. The part about the Rockefellers trying to implant everyone with chips and create and head a one-world government made me piss myself.

I really like the attitude behind Zeitgeist, so it pains me very much to say this, but... JCC is right.

9/11 conspiracies are bullshit.
Its religious assertions are taken from a single historian that everyone thinks is a fucking buffoon.
It's unsourced rubbish.

Because the 9/11 attacks are so obviously and provably exactly what they appeared to be: the work of a small group of men from an organization that has taken responsibility for the attacks.
And also the fact that most conspiracies center around power and money being paid out to someone. Most of us find it implausible that a person would accept money or other payment to commit suicide, seeing as you wouldn't be around to enjoy it.
Lastly, I may be cynical enough to believe our government capable of conspiracies, but I'm also cynical enough to believe them too incompetent to keep it secret. Remember, this is an administration whose secret plans have been regularly published on the front of the NYT, who couldn't find the WMDs, and who arguably couldn't find their head with both hands.
If they can't even fabricate WMDs in Iraq for mom and pop CNN junkie back home, how on earth could they orchestrate a simultaneous attack on three major buildings using airliners full of witnesses who DID call out on cell phones before their deaths?
