The 9/11 Conspiracy's Little White Dog

[Walter Ego]

Not recent but this is an amusing take down of Jim “Uncle” Fetzer in the conservative American Thinker magazine from 2006 by J.R. Dunn. It begins with a short article by Dunn which takes on Fetzer’s claim that the Pentagon was hit by a "missile from an A-3 Skywarrior” (the little white dog) on 9-11 and goes for two more rounds with Dunn becoming increasingly, and amusingly, exasperated.

Dunn, a former editor of the International Military Encyclopedia, knows his stuff about military ordinance and, after commenting on Fetzer’s “blizzard of factoids” style, gives a good summation of Fetzer’s shtick in the final article:

“[T]hat's the case with all of Prof. James H. Fetzer, Ph.D's claims. Once you follow them back to a reputable source, you discover they're not what you were told. The words are different, the content unrelated. The flight controller said no such thing. The missing parts were in plain sight. The secret airport is a thriving metropolitan hub. The murder victim is up and walking around and talking to CBS. After awhile you get used to it. You stop thinking, 'Uh—oh — this doesn't look good,' and start looking forward with glee, eager to learn what little twist has been added this time. And it's a good thing you can view it that way, because otherwise you'd get sick to your stomach.”

We know the feeling Mr. Dunn.

I like this part because it's true. I love watching how contorted and nonsensical Truther claims become, desperately trying to make their conspiracy theories operable.
