32. Well, you're right that Warren Pease is "one of our own" but...
I wouldn't pile on the accolades quite yet. It's NOT good stuff, as you can read his (assuming it's a he) first couple of claims and EASILY debunk his errors. Let's just take a couple:

"They got the entire world to believe that four hijackers who couldn't fly single-engine Cessnas well enough to graduate from flight school suddenly became the Blue Angels when at the controls of large, twin-engine Boeing jetliners, and this during the most stressful moments of their short lives."

Answer: Totally wrong. See: http://www.911myths.com/html/flight_school_dropouts.html

"They got the entire world to believe that the crime of the century was pulled off by 19 guys with box-cutters whose names (or any other Arabic names) don't appear on any passenger manifests and at least four of whom have been seen alive and well in the Middle East since 9/11/01, (this one even interviewed by the BBC)."

Answer: Totally wrong AGAIN. See: http://www.911myths.com/html/still_alive.html and http://www.911myths.com/html/no_hijackers_on_the_manifests.html

"Better yet, they got the entire world to believe their evidence linking these 19 guys to the hijackings, using for proof a few cell phone calls that couldn't have happened with 2001 technology. Then there's the famous carry-on bag supposedly left behind by alleged ringleader Mohammed Atta containing, among other things, a copy of the Koran, a Boeing flight manual and his will (and that's surely something you'd take with you on a flight you knew was going to be vaporized). And then the kicker, a passport allegedly belonging to Atta that miraculously survived a massive explosion and temperatures we're told were high enough to soften steel and fluttered unsullied to the ground, where it was eventually found among the debris a couple of blocks away from what used to be the World Trade Center."

Answer: Totally wrong AGAIN. Let's just take part of it, the allegation that Atta's passport was the one that was found and that's impossible. First of all, it belonged to one of the other hijackers. Why can't Warren even get basic details correct? Secondly, it's really stupid to imply it's impossible for things such as passports, etc. to survive catastrophic tragedies. See: http://www.911myths.com/html/passport_recovered.html and http://screwloosechange.blogspot.com/2006/08/your-documents-please.html

I don't know about the rest of you, but it doesn't appear "Warren's" claims are even remotely reliable. I'm sure some of you "truthers" will demand I debunk EVERY claim he makes but, frankly, after such an atrocious start on his part, I really don't see the point.
