(11,050 posts)37. Your dismissal of the confessions was so obviously lame...
... that I took it as a concession of the point, so it didn't seem anything else needed to be said. But if you insist: Obviously, you even know that Yosri Fouda said he lied about the date of the interview -- an irrelevant detail -- so that he could be sure that anyone who knew the correct date was legitimately connected with al-Shibh and KSM. But it hardly matters that "truthers" use that as an excuse to discount the confession, since KSM volunteered another confession to the military tribunal. As for your lame dismissal of the "fat Osama" video, your personal incredulity hardly matters given the other videos which you ignored, e.g. the one released before our '04 elections.

NIST lied. The collapses were not explained. The 10 mysteries were not addressed.

The point is irrelevant. Bazant's model does not resemble reality. NIST does not name him.

I understand what he says just fine. What he says bears no resemblance to reality. nt
