Respectfully, I'd be utterly shocked if links like that one (which does include links to other sites previously banned on DU2) are what the Admins had in mind as good candidates for pinned threads in here.

It's more of a 911 Truth Movement news item than creative speculation about a 9/11 conspiracy, imo.

It's a worthwhile topic. Bolo Boffin Dec 2011 #8

Right, but I'm not at all suggesting it shouldn't be discussed. greyl Dec 2011 #9

Well, it's pinworthy right now because there's not much else to choose from. Bolo Boffin Dec 2011 #10

Thanks! n/t loudsue Dec 2011 #23

No, I'm afraid I don't see. Can you post an example of debunkers trying to co-opt Occupy? Make7 Dec 2011 #3
