Nothing wrong with exploring an idea;the problem comes when one keeps exploring an idea too far fetched and requiring a leap of faith which makes you disregard the evidence at hand.
And yet he refuted the theory thus adding weight to 'your' argument.
If he hadnt explored such a far-fetched idea he couldnt have refuted it.
Has he kept exploring the idea after that?
Who judges when an idea is too far-fetched?
Did i miss a meeting? "Yeah we had a meeting, the line is here, you were asleep."

The MASER theory acts as a distraction:it's build on speculations and isn't needed to prove the towers were brought down by controlled demolition.
Hang on there. No boeing at the pentagon IS a no plane theory.
The NPT generally refers to the WTC and as you admit below, he doesnt support the NPT either. He refutes the maser theory so ???
No plane at the pentagon implies the Norman Mineta testimony which damns Cheney is false.
I agree with you about the NPT but if some damning evidence emerged that would change. Every faked video getting posted as absolute proof only serves to muddy the waters. I shant hold my breath.

Hoffman is the most recognised "plank" because not only does he advocate the "pull the firefighters"and "boeing at the pentagone "theories,he's part of the few that attempted to smear 911's most prominent researchers.
Who are these prominent researchers and why are they above reproach?
You attack one of the uk's leading campaigners then call Hoffman a plank for smearing others?
What does that make you?
A bit confused? Made of wood?

At the David Ray Griffin talk in Oakland on March 30th, which I attended, Jim Hoffman's Truth Police descended on the venue wearing pre-printed tee-shirts directing people to go to Hoffman's web sites and handing out flyers that try to convince people, particularly the new-comers to the 9/11 truth movement, to be distrustful of any 9/11 researcher who supports the Pentagon No-757 theory or the Fake Cell Phone Calls Theory. The flyers also tried to discredit the movie "Loose Change".
Oh noes...
At Ground Zero on 9/11/06, Dylan Avery and Jason Bermas's truth police descended wearing pre-printed t-shirts directing people to go to the Loose Change website and handing out dvd's that try to convince people, particularly the new comers to the 9/11 Truth Movement that no plane hit the pentagon and the calls were faked etc etc
I think its called campaigning.
Have you checked the oilempire piece on all no plane theories - about them being there to cause 911 families to shun the movement etc etc?
I thought Hoffmans debunking of Loose Change was well done. They have some errors in there and, using your logic, they have promoted possibly flawed theories as likely facts, therefore discrediting the movement... Just as IPS/LC1 did. I dont believe its deliberate, they are seeking the truth.
I hope they take hoffmans critique onboard for final cut.
Noones perfect.

How do you contend,in that circumstance,that Larry meant "pull the firefighters" ?
I dont.

The objective of disinformation (and Hoffman )is not to convince us of "the official account" but to create enough uncertainty that "everything is believable and nothing is knowable".
So your desire for there to be no plane at the pentagon means there wasnt one? That every American can easily understand it doesnt make it true and leads to the possibility that it may be a honeytrap set up to funnel our focus then discredit us.
I appreciate there are people out there trying to create uncertainty that nothing is knowable - we have a few here... Not everything is knowable but there is plenty of consensus on what we do know.
That Hoffman doesnt agree with you makes him disinfo?
I think he tries to weed out the disinfo, pushing spurious claims as facts could be argued to do more damage.
I tend to steer clear of the pentagon generally, many mirrors + smoke. The NTSB data for me only serves to muddy the waters further.
All the conflicting eyewitness reports and fake? whistleblowers etc etc its a quagmire by design.
Enough about Hoffman i say, get back to speculating about Shayler...
Or...not.
