I have no idea what this has to do with, for example, an jet plane
flying into the Pentagon on 9/11--

CB: No idea ? Read the first paragraph of the article you sent. It
doesn't just talk about 9/11. It makes general references to the nature
of the state repressive apparatus, the _White House_. The idea you
should have is that Watergate has , obviously , to do with this more
general question about whether the White House engages in conspiracies.
It is strange feigned naivete to pretend like I'm saying that the
Watergate conspirators had anything to do with the 9/11 event, which you
know full well I was not saying. Saying things like this makes it seem
that you are trying to dodge an honest discussion of this issue. If you
want to say that there are a lot of "conspiracy theory nutcases" and old
time anti-semite conspiracy theorists of whom all must be aware when
discussing a conspiracy theory of a given situation, fine. Say that.
Don't oppose consideration of suspicious facts that suggest the official
story might not be all there is to it by reference to some general claim
that the White House and other Executive Branch agents do not do that
type of thing.
