BERLIN, July 23 (Reuters) - Almost one in three Germans below the age of 30 believes the U.S. government may have sponsored the September 11, 2001, attacks on New York and Washington, according to a poll published on Wednesday.

And about 20 percent of Germans in all age groups hold this view, a survey of 1,000 people conducted for the weekly Die Zeit said.
It also said 68 percent of all Germans felt the media had not reported the full truth behind the attacks, in which some 3,000 people were killed when hijacked planes were crashed into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

1. Das hat recht, meine deutschen Freunde!

"The news is controlled," 17-year old Kenny Donaubaur was quoted as saying. "You could see that in the Iraq war. It doesn't seem to me that you get the full truth."

No shit?

2. yep, no shit

I guess Democrats will get to the bottom of it, eh?

3. With the events

that have occured this week alone I have become more convinced that this powerful and manipulative administration may have had something to do with 9/11.

They had prior knowledge that airplanes were capable of being used for terrorist attacks and there were invoices sent to the administration. All was ignored.

The supposed killing of Saddam's 2 sons and its timing with the startling report released by Senator Graham et. all just goes to show how much power this administration has in covering up information that may be damaging them.

As Senator Graham said in the Senate session today this administration is extremely secretive.
It takes an outsider such as people in another country to see what the hell is going on. ( I know that there are people here that feel the same.)

we get all the right-wing fundamentalists?

5. Free education encouraging independent thought...

also a much more academically challenging curriculum than we have here.

6. Just a guess, but

I would think there are very few Germans who can allow themselves to be in denial about the evil that can be perpetrated by the powerful ones in government.
