Well said... it's so simple. People tend to not realize the realities of political pressure...
And what "political pressure" would that be for two retired Swiss professors then ???
Do you just make this crud up or do you really think the US has so much power and influence they
can direct foreign nationals from a NEUTRAL country what to think or say ???
for example, at a university, I went to look at the requirements for various courses (engineering among them), and in the structural engineering they went so deep as to only accept business referred candidates.
Oh! so those engineers so educated by business referral
couldn't work for any other firms then ... they are tied in blood to those that referred them !!!
(
As an aside is the chance of getting above purely blue collar ever a possibility for you ... did you have the necessary levels of education or qualification or aptitude for such, is that why you were looking at degree courses ???)
That means they are only looking for "company (wo)men", and these are the people that will be more apt to bend to political winds in order to maintain their positions.
What a load of baloney !!!
NOTHING stops people from moving jobs, moving countries, moving allegiances ... part of my training and education was paid for by the Royal Air Force, yet NOTHING
stopped me from working wherever I damm well chose after I left ... I took those qualifications with me and worked both for the NHS and in my own private practise ... I owed NOTHING to those that taught me, moneterily or in any political fashion ... I could say as I pleased about anything.
Claiming that this worlds professionals are too cowardly or selfish to speak out is just ignorant and idiotic ... and so removed from reality as to indicate some break with normality !!!
It takes balls to go out on a limb and declare that, regardless of any potential negative impacts, that you are stating your position that goes against the "mainstream".
So pat yourself on the back ... you da
man !!!
Now, I could show you examples of how people TEND to not want to shake the boat all day for nearly a week... it's a fact that MOST PEOPLE avoid conflicts if they can be avoided, generally speaking.
So,
that's why people turn up in huge numbers at protests, write letters to Parliament, demand answers from officialdom, rattle cages, sue governments everyday of the year ... whoda thunk it ... :roll::roll::roll:

Nobody, it seems, is prepared to take a stand ... as they wish to
avoid conflict and not shake the boat ... well, that goes a long way to explain all those MASSIVE anti-war protests and suchlike then !!!
Nobody is prepared to stand up and protest for something as small as stopping a village school from closing either then I take it ...

Nobody was prepared to stand up and protest against cuts to school dinner services ...
"
A coalition of senior doctors and nurses have written to the education secretary, Michael Gove, expressing "deep concern" at his decision to axe plans for free school meals for half a million primary school children from low-income families.
The Royal College of Nursing, Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health and Royal College of Physicians are the latest groups to join the backlash against the controversial move, saying the scheme would have lifted 50,000 young people out of poverty and cut education and health inequalities by giving them more nutritious lunches."

Nobody ... "except" truthers it seems ...are brave enough to shake boats ...
"
More than 250,000 people have attended a march and rally in central London against public spending cuts"
BBC News - Anti-cuts march: Tens of thousands at London protest
"
About 3,000 journalists who are members of the National Union of Journalists took part in the one-day strike, which caused some disruption to programming."
"
The strike is the second in less than a year at the broadcaster. About 4,100 BBC journalists went on a 48-hour strike last November to protest planned cuts to pensions"

"
In spite of the fact that 8 December is a public holiday in Malta, with a number of towns and villages celebrating religious feasts, a crowd of more than 300 animal lovers gathered to protest against a travelling circus with animals which opened its doors to the public on the same day."
International Animal Rescue - News - Circus protest draws crowds in Malta
Seems even circus animals can get
more people to turn up in protest at their treatment than any truther group seems to ... there must be a reason
for that ???
Bet you don't realise the
reason is there aren't enough people stupid enough to fall for truther guff ... that most people see it for the lunacy it is !!!
I'll put it a different way, NOT as a comparison, but as an illustration of what this type of declaration CAN mean.
- How many of those that signed the declaration of independence survived long enough to see their fulfilled dream of an independent country?? and how many did NOT?
As for PNAC's RAD document, THE ONLY WAY that you can read that as a "legitimate" planning document (as opposed to a "conspiratorial" document) is if you do not take in the entire context of the document AND those involved in the authoring of the document.
It CANNOT be done, because the context is CLEAR... BUT that still leaves few options :
1 - These people were prophets that had "visioned" the attacks of 9-11 and planned for an "appropriate" response that suits their personal agendas.
2 - These people COINCIDENTALLY put as the KEY catalyst to their objectives, what was described in AT LEAST 6 cities major newspapers as the front page headline. (specifically "New Pearl Harbor"... honestly, google search the news headlines for that day... there should still be at least a few of them still online)
3 - They KNEW what was going to happen, it was "inevitable" and so planned around this "inevitability", OR
4 - They were involved, having working knowledge of the intricacies and even delegated tasks to people in key positions in order for 9-11 to occur as it did... AND being friends with the CEO's of the media giants, had prepared a headline for an "event" that would happen.
Oh, and "plausible deniability" is another great tool of the politician.
Cheers, keep it up.
Thems all just wurds up there,
meaningless wurds that will remain meaningless in 10 years time ... 50 years time ... 1000 years time ... it is just so much empty rhetoric !!!
