Why I have a real problem trusting the US goverment.
Sorry for jumping on you, man. I didn't even realize you were Canadian when I responded, which partially explains the misinformation. And which is also why I went back in at the last minute and edited all of the "yous" that were originally written, and replaced them with "Americans".

My tirade wasn't meant to be directed towards you, but rather to anyone foolish enough to defend their allegations based on just watching this idiotic film.
I watched it a few years ago, and remember thinking to myself at the time, "Hmm...some of this actually makes sense." But not one to be misled, even by nifty documentaries with trippy background music, I did my own research and came up with a lot of the same facts that the "Debunking..." websites now have. A little later, "Debunking 9/11" was released, and confirmed a lot of the things I had suspected to be true in the first place. Dad after day, damn near every myth from the documentary began to fall apart, and even the film-maker admitted that most of his film wasn't based on any fact whatsoever. He was just looking to get a rise out of gullible people, and to make some money in the process. It's easy to see where his loyalty lies, which is why I get a little irate when I hear someone defend his film.
Sorry again for the rant. But believe it or not, many Americans are still genuinely upset about 9/11, and don't like to hear anyone "joke" about it... especially when referring to 'Loose Change' as a basis for their political arguments.
