In Willie’s Wake, Neocon Blogger Compares “Trutherism” to Holocaust Denial

Now that Willie Nelson has told the world via the Alex Jones Show his opinion of what really happened on September 11, 2001 — there is no way simple jet fuel fires brought down the towers and indeed the collapse looked for all the world like a carefully executed demolition — folks suffering from an allergic reaction to reality are coming out of the woodwork in condemnation, albeit with trepidation as it is risky to attack an American icon and get away unscathed.
As an example, consider the following blogger on the KXMC website:
“He’s one of my favorite artists. His songs are always on my iPod playlist, but now I’m not sure I’m going to be able to enjoy his music the way I once did after listening to this interview with Ron Paul buddy Alex Jones,” rants the nameless blogger. “As a conservative, I’m used to having to overlook the politics of the artists I like. Entertainers tend to be very liberal. It’s a fact of life that I’ve learned to deal with. But trutherism is more than just disagreeing on the war or domestic policy. Trutherism is equivalent to holocaust denial in my book… Shame on you, Willie.”
Of course, this guy is not a “conservative,” he is a neocon, but then the neocons hijacked the title years ago. It is also a squalid and disingenuous neocon tactic to claim “trutherism” is akin to Holocaust denial, never mind there is not a shimmering iota of likeness between the two. It is just another neocon cheap trick, a shabby effort to get the clueless and politically infantile to react in emotional fashion to the fact distant Muslim cave dwellers — expensively tailored by the CIA and no shortage of fanatics in Pakistan — were unable to change the laws of physics. Such brain death and tawdry emotionalism stink to high heaven, but without such despicable theatrics the murderous neocon plan to decimate the Muslim and Arab Middle East would fall in on itself like a house of cards in a mild breeze.

No doubt we should expect more of this desperate behavior in the days ahead, now that the Associated Press and Fox News have reported Willie’s interview with Alex Jones. “On Sept. 11, 2001, 19 men hijacked planes, crashing them into each of the World Trade Center’s twin towers in New York City, the Pentagon and a Pennsylvania field,” the Associated Press is wont to tell us, once again fronting the official fairy tale version of events, minus absolutely any credible evidence or substantial proof that 19 hijackers were any where near those planes on September 11.

If the supposed hijackers were near anything, it was the Naval Air Station in Pensacola, Florida, the Air War College in Montgomery, Alabama, and Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas, a fact reported by none other than Newsweek on September 15, 2001 — an uncomfortable fact that has since found its way to the memory hole.
In Bushzarro world, repeating harebrained fables passes for objective journalism, same as rehashed Trotskyism passes for Reagan conservatism.
Problem is, for the neocons, it no longer works, even with preposterous allusions to the Holocaust attached.Sphere: Related Content
