Uh oh – another politics post. I’ve tried to keep politics off my blog, but I’m going to plug the new documentary Loose Change as an interesting watch:

This raises a lot of interesting questions about the unbelievable coincidences that stack up before and after the events of 9/11. I’d really like to hear some of the answers to some of the points raised.

Kudos to the film’s creator, Dylan Avery for assembling all the news stories side-by-side. I remember reading about these tidbits in various stories over the years, but you need to see them all within 80 minutes to get the full effect.

I think this documentary deserves a viewing by everyone. At least we might get some answers if everyone asks.

The Wikipedia entry) for the film has a great paragraph:

The idea for the project was coined by Avery in May 2002 after a conversation with actor James Gandolfini in which Gandolfini told Avery If you want to be a successful director, you have to have something to say to the world. [4] Avery began writing a fictional story in which he and his friends discover that the events of September 11, 2001 were not the result of terrorist attacks but rather, orchestrated by the US government. While conducting research for the story, Avery became increasingly satisfied that his story was more factual than fictional so he abandoned the story idea and turned it into a documentary project.
