It’s an old tradition, and not just relegated to “the fringes”:

Walker works for Reason magazine, and you know what that means — Reason TV’s Nick Gillespie interviewed his comrade:

And here he is, reading from his new book, at Politics & Prose:

Two “theorists” who were in a position to know:

“The real truth of the matter is, as you and I know, that a financial element in the larger centers has owned the government ever since the days of Andrew Jackson.” — President Roosevelt, letter to Col. Edward House, 1933

“The world is governed by very different personages from what is imagined by those who are not behind the scenes.” ‑Benjamin Disraeli, Prime Minister of England, 1868 & 1874 – 80

It’s too bad that conspiracies (which people are convicted of every day) first attract wild speculation and only later serious research. By now there are dozens of professional associations for 9/​11 truth, with thousands of members, such as Architects and Engineers for 9/​11 Truth, Firefighters for 9/​11 Truth, Scholars for 9/​11 Truth, Law Enforcement for 9/​11 Truth. Just google “for 9/​11 truth” (with the quotes to get just that exact phrase)and see pages. When the government hides evidence (like the many security tapes of the Pentagon attack and the “black boxes” from the planes) it indicates what lawyers call “guilty affect.” It’s hard to believe the black boxes were destroyed while the passport of a hijacker was quickly found.

“Just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean they’re not out to get you.”
