Okay, everybody should calm down for a second. Think a little bit. This song specifically deals with the events of 9/11. Okay, now that we understand that it is not using 9/11 as an "example" but very specifically speaking of those events, we can move on. Now the next question is, what exactly is he saying of those events? I think he wrote the song because he is so frustrated with the media and the way they talk about 9/11. He doesn't necessarily think it was an "inside job". Please stop posting that he in fact wrote it because he thinks that. He simply thinks that something went on that day that was a little strange and all the facts aren't spoken of. If you just look at the American coverage of the story, you will see the holes everywhere. I'm not saying that it couldn't have been an "inside job" but I'm gonna be more clear minded than that. It could have been a number of things. What is an "inside job" anyway? Do we really think that "The Government" is responsible? Who is "The Government"? Are we including the NSA, FBI, CIA and Private Associations? Also, do we really think that all of those agencies like each other and share information? Basically something went on and we weren't told the half of it. I think we can all somewhat agree on that and also maybe try and leave it at that. Dustin, like all of us, desperately wants truth and desperately wishes for the American public to wake up.
