Poll shows many Germans see U.S. behind Sept 11

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BERLIN, July 23 (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.

And about 20 percent of Germans in all age groups hold this view, a survey of 1,000 people conducted for the weekly Die Zeit said.

It also said 68 percent of all Germans felt the media had not reported the full truth behind the attacks, in which some 3,000 people were killed when hijacked planes were crashed into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

Asked whether they believed that the U.S. government could have ordered the September 11 attacks itself, 31 percent of those surveyed under the age of 30 in the poll answered "yes", while 19 percent overall gave the same answer.

Die Zeit said widespread disbelief about the reasons given by the United States for going to war in Iraq and suspicion about media coverage of the conflict had fostered a climate in which conspiracy theories flourished.

"The news is controlled," 17-year old Kenny Donaubaur was quoted as saying. "You could see that in the Iraq war. It doesn't seem to me thet you get the full truth."

well, to be honest there are certain things that could lead people to believe that

ie the complete lack of intell on it,

the fact that an incident was needed to go out and declare war on muslim extremists etc


think about it this way, in 1939 (or 3 when the reichstage was burnt down, how many people believed it was their own government that did it??
Instead they blamed a group of people - communists, replace the commies with the arabs

et voila!

just another view on it

is not a valid point?

Im afraid its a fantastic example of this kind of thing

as for Princess Diana's brake cables a) possibly someone high up had something to do with it (for good reason, ie she was a disgrace to the 'family') b) I dont really care

JFK was killed because he didn't want the war in Vietnam and Lee Harvey Oswald was just a fallguy.
There are tonnes of conspiracy theories and maybe 9/11 is just another one.
