Re: Dammit Foogla! Them's fightin' words!
[quote name="foogla"][quote name="Lizard_King"][quote name="Reuters"]Almost one in three Germans below the age of 30 believes the U.S. government may have sponsored the September 11, 2001, attacks on New York and Washington, according to a poll published on Wednesday.[/quote] What about the Jews? Shouldn't they bring up the obvious role the Israelis and their US govt counterparts had in slamming airplanes into the WTC? Is that an exact quote from the poll? Often, news stories take polls in Europe that were phrased much more loosely (like "Is it possible the US government did not do all it could to avoid the WTC attacks") and create scandal mongering headlines from them. Usually, it is a British newspaper flippling its shit, but Reuters is only slightly more reliable. Not that I would find that at all surprising....but perhaps foogla can inform re the actual format of the poll.... [/quote] The poll was done by Die Zeit, a pretty good if too big weekly newspaper. I couldn't find the wording on their website, and I don't read their print version. I assume the question was "Do you think it's possible that the US government could be behind the WTC attacks" or something like that. Btw 19% (overall) replied yes.[/quote]
