Julian has decided to go with the fingers-in-ears "nah nah nah nah" response.

I will not host or respond to obvious provocation, those who intentionally misinterpret what I've said, or those who feign politeness until I say something they don't agree with. Some people can be duped or easily provoked. I've been at this a while and I'm not one of them. Although I do enjoy telling people they are full of shit from time to time. Occasional venting helps keep me sane.

I'm not remotely interested in dialog with anyone from the sites I listed as being problematic. I don't want to dialog with bigots, I don't want to dialog with infiltrators, and I don't want to dialog with people from wtcdemolition who didn't read my post carefully enough to understand what I was and wasn't saying about the site.

I'm not the smartest or most informed person in this movement. Every time I post to my blog I wish I was more educated and better able to express myself. But I decided when I started the blog that I wouldn't end up posting anything if I always questioned myself to that extent.

I can make mistakes. I can mis-speak. I can get upset and lose my cool. But I do take a good deal of time when writing anything to be as clear as I can. I write carefully in order to avoid misinterpretation and ambiguity. And most often it seems that people I respect and trust know exactly what I'm getting at.

I deleted and disabled the comments on that post because they were mostly pitiful attempts to provoke me or based entirely on misinterpreting or misquoting what I said. To be honest, as I said it's not that important an issue to me I don't really want to talk about it. I've taken some time in the past to review the facts related to hypotheses of Israeli involvement and I didn't find them compelling. For some reason people think that throwing those same facts in my face will convince me. Or they think that making up my mind signifies bias.

Focus on Israel and Zionism might have it's own place in the political spectrum. But I don't think it has any important role to play in the 9/11 truth movement. And as it has a tendency to turn people off and be used against us, I think the whole topic should be considered unrelated.

When evidence emerges that I should hear about, I'm sure I will from a reputable source.
