  • True, also some of the propaganda and covert tactics excercised by the British government in WW2 is also pretty unbelievable, so unbelievable in fact that members of the public back then wouldn't have thought it possible.

    This is not disrespectful to those wo died, I don't believe in the conspiracy, but believing what your government is telling you during a time of war is probably a bit naive, we were told that we could be attacked with WMD in 45 mins FFS! if they can feed us that shite, they'll try anything.

    One of the bombs went off right underneath me - I was seven floors above the Aldgate bomb. It was loud and shook the building. I saw dozens of flak-jacketed police run into the tube station from my window. We were then told by the police that there had been an electrical surge. Ho-hum!

    No, I do not believe everything told to me by the government. One criteria I employ, however, is to ask what they would gain by doing what they are alleged to have done. In this case, I cannot see what they could have gained. It didn't even improve the tube and it got more people onto bikes, something the government seem to be very against!

    [Notice how I have managed to get this thread back on track - cycling is what it is all about!]
