Silence speaks a thousand words as they say and never has that been more true than when it comes to Flights 93, 77, 175 and 11. Those planes went down on a historical day back in 2001 and for some reason we aren’t hearing any squawking from their families. There is like, one woman with enough doubt to speak out, but just one? Really? Why is that?
Why is it that when thousands of families who lost loved ones in the WTC buildings are screaming at the top of their lungs for answers, all of the families from the victims in the planes are silent?
Were not their families taken in the same, violent and brutal way? Are they not curious as to why the government didn’t manage to learn about the attacks before they were carried out? Are they not a little upset at the thought that somewhere along the line mistakes were made? Mistakes that cost their fathers, husbands, daughters, parents and friends their lives?
Apparently not because I have been searching for information like this, info that would show me that these victims had families who cared, who hurt and who had real emotions like anger. I can’t imagine what it was like for anyone on that day but I do know that if it was someone I loved that was lost there would be a hell of a lot of explaining to do. I would not easily accept whatever platitudes and excuses were thrown at me, no way. I would want real, solid, logical answers and I think it gets clearer by the day that there were none like that given in terms of 9/11.
Personally this silence, this lack of rage is one of the things that convinces me that perhaps there was no Flight 77, no Flight 93. I mean, the physical evidence isn’t there and never was, now you throw the fact that the families are all creepily quiet? Where there is silence there is something to hide.
Ask any psychologist and they will tell you that this is not the normal reaction of those facing this kind of loss. You can argue that everyone is different and I accept that, but out of the 246 people who were reported to have died on the planes, only ONE of them thinks the investigation wasn’t good enough? You don’t have to be a math genius to see that is pretty unlikely. But I digress.
Psychologists say that in a terrorist event such as September 11 most people are going to be stripped of all allegiance to, well, pretty much everything. State, country, President, you name it. The only thing that is going to exist for these people is the burning need to know why. Why did this happen, why didn’t anyone see it coming, why didn’t the Air Force do something, why did President Bush keep reading about ducks while people were dying and fighting to live?
Think about how many hundreds of loved ones were left behind, look me in the face and tell me that it makes sense that they all believed everything the government told them, even after all the discrepancies started to come to light. Please. No one trusts the government that much.
