Noam the skeleton 14.Oct.2009 15:38

newly crowned

Noam is outdated. He's part of the establishment.

He's keeping key discussions regarding 9/11 from happening.

Until the truth about 9/11 is revealed we will be chasing ghost terrorists in Afghanistan.

If you haven't seen "the power of nightmares" by the BBC(not exactly your liberal news outlet), watch it, especially if you think a bunch of Arab terrorists pulled off 9/11.

Both Italian and Russian state media have deconstructed the 9/11 lies in documentaries.

Why won't the old leftist guard allow these important myths to be dispelled?
