In a recent episode of South Park, the elementary-school-aged
troublemakers spend most of the half-hour figuring out whether the U.S.
government planned the attacks of September 11, 2001. As they close in
on the answer, a squad of poorly drawn, machine-gun-toting Secret
Service agents kidnaps Kyle and Stan, along with a 9/11 conspiracy
theorist. All of them are whisked away to the Oval Office, where
President Bush confesses to everything.
"We've all worked very hard to keep our involvement in 9/11 a secret,
but you just had to keep digging," Bush cackles. Then the president
pulls out a handgun. He sticks the muzzle in the conspiracy theorist's
mouth and blows his brains out. The cartoon blood splatters on a black
shirt with the words "911Truth.org."
Bush then explains that he planted explosives in the base of the World
Trade Center towers. The missing planes were diverted to an airport in
Pennsylvania. Two military jets filled with explosives flew into the
twin towers. Then he blew up the Pentagon with a cruise missile. Bush
boasts: "It was only the world's most intricate and flawlessly executed
plan ever ... ever."
By the end, the show has mocked everybody involved. But the following
day, Web traffic to 911truth.org multiplied by five times, spiking the ...

The only thing this post "exposes" is something we already knew -
that Septic has a very tenuous grip on reality, bloody or otherwise.

You honestly didn't realize that Parker and Stone were making fun of
net-kooks like you, did you? You really are that detached from reality
and that unable to tell when you're being laughed at. Amazing.

South Parks intent in this piece was exposure of the war crimes of the
US government against its own people. US society is so controlled and
corrupt that layers of humor have to be placed over the important
political commentary in this case for it to even be aired.

I research this topic and similar topics for a local University's
research group known as 'Project Censored,' --which publishes censored
and underreported stories. We publish a book nationally every year...

Bwahahaha - um, no. South Park's intent in this episode was to
ridicule 9/11 conspiracy nuts. Here skeptic offers us substantive
proof that conspiracy nuts are incapable of detecting or appreciating
satire. Not that it was particularly subtle satire - the fact that
9/11 conspiracy nuts are called "retards" might have provided a clue,
but when you're this detached from reality, realizing that people are
laughing at you is probably not high on the list of priorities.

US involvement in WWII, was started when the White House full knowledge

Aircraft Carriers were safely out to sea.

Correction: the code was broken and the information was passed along as
a possibility. The main problem is that they did not take the threat as
a serious one. They did not do this out of malice towards anyone, it
was pure stupidity. America did its best to stay out of the war even
when there was an outcry when London was being bombed, that changed when
there was an attack on U.S. soil.

If you want to go back and change history in your own mind then go right
ahead, everyone else knows that it is bullshit.
