Russell Brand: "I'm open-minded" to "any kind of possibility" re: 9/11

Quote:

“In the book you refer to the destruction of the twin towers in New York — 9/11 — as what some people say looked like a controlled explosion,” Davis said. “One might read that as you giving some credence to conspiracy theories.” “You can read the book in whatever manner you would like to, Evan,” Brand replied. Davis then asks more directly about what Brand believes about the 9/11 attacks, which killed over 3,000 people. “I think it is interesting at this time when we have so little trust in our political figures, where ordinary people have so little trust in their media, we have to remain open-minded to any kind of possibility,” Brand replied. “Do you trust the American government? Do you trust the British government?” he continued. “What I do think is very interesting is the relationship that the Bush family have had for a long time with the bin Laden family. “What I do think is very interesting is the way that even the BBC report the events in Ottawa to subtly build an anti-Islamic narrative. I think that’s very interesting.” Eventually Brand ended the 9/11 line of questioning by saying he did not want to discuss “daft” conspiracy theories.

Ah yes, the "some people say" tactic of alleging something without having to stand behind the allegation. :rolleyes:



Some people say that Russell Brand is an overhyped charlatan (Not me, mind you. That would be daft...:cool: )
