9/11 Conspiracy Theories in Pakistan - Dangerous Ideas?


http://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/2011/09/view-from-pakistan-on-911.html

I consider it to be somewhat dangerous when so many people in a country with nukes (like Pakistan) are so conspiracy-minded towards the U.S.  And those of us in Canada as well, just by association and supporting their efforts abroad.   Not every conspiracy theory is just a theory, but I consider the "Truthers" to be just as bad as the people they accuse. And I think they also hurt the families of those killed everytime they're seen or heard.  The 9/11 conspiracy films and information I've seen and read are half truth and half fiction.  Thermite is a good example...their "smoking gun" as I've heard it referred to. :)  


For the sake of the argument, let's presume thermite was found there... and was used to cut down/weaken the enormous beams of steal supporting the towers.   There is no date given for the samples found, so this is not proof that it was used before 9am on 9/11/2001.   And I have to point out, that engrained in my memory is the image of steel beams, stretching up hundreds of feet to where the towers USED to be.   When the gruesome business of rescue and reconstruction began, they would eventually need to cut down those beams.....and thermite might have been what they used.
