Hello, everyone.

A few of us have begun building a wiki-based FAQ about 9/11 conspiracy claims. It is meant to be a resource for debaters to keep from having to argue the same things over and over again.

We would like to use material from these forums. The articles would have concise answers, but each article will (should) also link to JREF threads for those who want to delve into them. At this point I'm only asking for thread suggestions (but I won't say "no" to more).

Here is an example regarding the OKC bombing:
http://www.debunk911myths.org/topics/index.php?title=The_Oklahoma_City_Bombing

It cites three threads that I found by a simple search. (You can also see the Claim-Fact format and the importance of references.)

So, what are the best threads that cover all the other things that CTers talk about? The list of topics is long, but I'm sure that we can start populating articles with your suggestions.

Here is the overall index:
http://www.debunk911myths.org/topics/index.php?title=Index_to_Conspiracy_Theory_Claims

And each Section has a breakdown into specific claims and accusations.

Thanks in advance for your contributions. Just reply to this thread.
 
Har-har.

But that thread would also lose (IMHO) because it is not concise. We want to help newbies learn what really happened on 9/11 and it would be great to have them learn how arguments are put together (and demolished). They probably won't read much of an overlong thread.

So, any suggestions for concise, exemplary threads on any 9/11 topic?

well if you look at the 3 pinned LC topics, concise doesnt really fly at JREF, best bet is to find the exemplary posts in the overlong threads and link to those

that, however, is a much more difficult task
 
I think it is better to look at answers and evidence given within a thread. Some members make really good (and lengthy) posts, which hold lots of information.

But how the hell do you dig these up?
 
I don't think you'll find any good, concise threads in JREF, because the good ones get commented on quite a bit. Gravy did an Excel spread of the topics of most of the first two threads on Loose Change; I think you'll find a ton of good data there.

Heh. I went through about 7,000 posts through May to put that together, and that seemed like a lot. I had intended to update that file each month, but that was before the volume of posts here went through the roof: pdoherty & socks alone made about 1500 posts in a few days. Anyway, G-K, PM me and I'll send you that file if you want it.

I can't help with threads, but this summary of the conspiracy theorist by Dr. Adequate should be required reading for every human on Earth. They should put it into textbooks.

Yes, it always amazes me that CT's never stop to think of the logistics involved to pull off their beloved conspiracy. I'd love to hear Russell, PDocky, and JDOHX's comments on that post.

Back when Ollie Stone gave us his cinema tin hat verite blockbuster JFK, Gary Trudeau whipped up a wicked Sunday strip mocking the volume and diversity of participants required to Stone JFK.
