Mark Roberts: 9/11 “Debunker” or just Dishonest?
Arabesque: 9/11 Truth
Thursday, Aug 7, 2008
Mark Roberts is most well known as a 9/11 truth “Debunker”. One of the more common statements that he repeatedly makes is:
“The 9/11 “Truth” movement has made a few hundred significant claims in the past few years, none of which have been true. Don’t believe me? Then name a significant claim that you get right, and prove it.”
I’d like to take up this challenge. While it is true that 9/11 activists have not always promoted credible information, it is also true that the official story is obviously problematic. I could sit here all day poking holes in the official “conspiracy theory” as many have done, but I will just ask Mr. Roberts three easy questions:
1. Name one single person fired or reprimanded within the U.S. government (FBI, CIA, NORAD, FAA, NSA, or Bush Administration) for the 9/11 attacks.
2. NORAD is responsible for air defense. Mr. Roberts, how many contradictory explanations did NORAD give for their failure to intercept any planes on 9/11?
3. It is an established fact that NORAD is responsible for air defenses and no planes on 9/11 were even intercepted despite the fact this is standard procedure.
- “Consider that an aircraft emergency exists … when: …There is unexpected loss of radar contact and radio communications with any …aircraft.” —FAA Order 7110.65M 10-2-5 (6)
- “If … you are in doubt that a situation constitutes an emergency or potential emergency, handle it as though it were an emergency.” —FAA Order 7110.65M 10-1-1-c (7)
Despite this fact, how many days later was the man in charge of NORAD promoted?
(Article continues below)
Answers:
- Zero.According to testimony given to Congress: not one single individual within the CIA, FBI, and NSA has been reprimanded, punished, or fired for the events of 9/11.
- Three contradictory versions. Senator Mark Dayton claimed that NORAD officials “lied to the American people, they lied to Congress and they lied to your 9/11 commission to create a false impression of competence, communication and protection of the American people.”
- 3 days. Richard Myers, in charge of NORAD on 9/11 was promoted 3 days after the attack.
Assuming that Mr. Roberts can answer these questions correctly, why isn’t he a member of the 9/11 truth movement? I am at a loss, unless he believes that it is acceptable for NORAD to change their story three times without a criminal investigation to take place, no one to be fired or demoted, and Richard Myers, the person in charge of NORAD on 9/11 to get promoted 3 days later.
As I explained,
To believe in the 9/11 “official story” is to believe in a massive, coordinated, and “coincidental” failure at many levels in which those most responsible for preventing the attacks were not fired or reprimanded and instead promoted.
I wonder why Mark Roberts and other apologists for the 9/11 official story never go near facts such as these? I’ll have to assume it’s because they can’t be “debunked”.
