I was very pleased tonight to witness a commentary on the National by Rex Murphy slamming the whack jobs who think the 9/11 attacks were planned and plotted by the US Government. Murphy seemed legitimately ticked off that people would feel this way. I applaud him because I have felt this way since the first time I heard people thought George Bush planned the attacks.
The commentary is timely considering over a quarter of youth today feel that the attacks were planned by someone other than the terrorists. The number is shocking. Over one in four youth today feel that the government would simply sacrifice thousands of lives and millions if not billions in market capital, construction costs, clean up costs, retribution costs for lost lives, etc.
I haven’t seen a link to Rex’s commentary tonight but hopefully the link above takes you to it in a day or two.
Good on you Rex.

I saw it too. Awesome. I really respect Rex. A little badly needed balance at CBC.
