I don't THINK I've been misunderstood, but just in case, a brief clarifications:
I have followed his blog off and on since inception. He has an encyclopaedic knowledge of the financial markets universe and a style that commands attention - if a bit irritating at times. He prides himself on being a 'Patriot' (normally, when I hear such professions I run a mile - 'last refuge of scoundrels' and all that - per Dr Johnson of my own home town) and his view of the world is strictly orthodox US-centric capitalist. In other words, the very antithesis of my own view. Nonetheless I try to garner expertise where I find it and it is his very orthodoxy that makes his comments on this affair worthy of note - IMHO anyway.
I agree the 911 comment. It was a slow, somewhat painful process but I have personally become 100% certain that the official 911 narrative is absurd - as is the official narrative of much of US and UK history of the past couple of hundred years or so - but there is simply no point suggesting that to the Karl Denningers of this world. They know better you see. You and I are simply wing-nut, tin-foil-hat-wearing conspiracy theorists, so there's absolutely no need to listen to anything we have to say on anything - QED .
Sad really but that's the way it is.
No, I understood perfectly your take and his...and just mused that this 'grassy knoll/ground-zero' incident in his field of view might just change him.....if he is so bright as he seems to be. Perhaps he will just thicken his mental Seigfreid Line. This will awaken some in the financial world and put them in the camp with David and others. However this works out - or even if it disappears, it is a HUGE financial CONSPIRACY! IMO
