As a Canadian, I’ve seen countless other non-Americans who have an irrational hatred for Americans; and this hatred becomes far worse for American conservatives. I've had countless experiences with other Canadians (in particular people on the far left) who make ignorant comments about the United States that are on-par with the youtube videos you often see posted where some moronic individual justifies their voting ...
In other words, being from outside of the United States doesn't free you from bias; and depending on where you're from and your political leanings it may ensure you're biased.

Yeah sure, but he brought up the 'biased' issue first, and I would argue that he's more succeptable to it than someone half-way accross the world. In any case, I don't think it should factor at all - point is, many educated people do not think muslim radicals were the soöe cause for the 911 attacks. The odds are just too small.

just because they are educated doesnt mean they cant be stupid and ignorant. the answers are there for anyone actually willing to look at them, rather than go in circles with their repeatedly debunked conspiracy crap.

So basically anyone in disagreement with you is automatically wrong? No point in this thread then is there? Actually, no point in having any discussion at all.

on this topic, yes, obviously. i mean i dont see whats the purpose in having these discussions time and again, when all the evidence is there and these "truthers" just meander about in circles, ignoring whats been said to them or the links that have been provided to them.
quite frankly, when this event happened my first thought was something along the lines of "good. about time.". so i was more than willing to believe these conspiracy theories when they started coming up. in fact i had a science teacher that spent a class talking about why the war in afghanistan was all about oil. Education can make you more likely to spread ignorance because you already "know" the answers. The real problem is that most people tend to just question the story, find one these conspiracy whackos and then feel proud of themselves for having worked it all out. They dont actually look at how or why things happened...everything in the video they watched must be the truth; completely factual and the whole story.
