22. Agree it's not likely but factual correction: thousands are missing
You said that if many people were missing we'd hear about it. But Amy Goodman on Democracy Now and other Pacifica outlets have regularly reported that there are something like 2500 people still missing -- and that's according to official records.

That's an extraordinary fact that is never mentioned in the MSM.

Supposedly it's because these people are scattered across the country and lost touch with their families. Guess they still can't afford a long distance phone call or know how to call collect.

My guess is they are dead and still in the debris that has yet to be cleaned up, rather than in detention camps.
