Am I A Conspiracy Theorist?

I believe that the current administration ignored intelligence reports that warned them of terrorists intentions and wants of attacking america on its own soil. I also believe that afterwards, the administration covered up their follies to save face.


Is this a conspiracy? and is there any reason why it shouldn't be taken seriously?

I agree with this but I believe they did it out of ignorance and stupidity rather then some part of a planned plot.

I don't think it was a planned plot. Like you said, stupid, ignorant, and maybe a little arrogant.

You sound perfectly realistic. And if jlew, the usual opponent on these topics agrees, well, that's validation if I've ever seen it. That said, it's still possible there was more nefarious intent than you are interpreting.

The Bush administration has taken arrogance to a whole new level.

And I agree with Jlew take on this. Until I see facts to the contrary I believe it was incompetence.

I would say this is a conspiracy since it involves covering up the truth.

No, there is no reason it shouldn't be taken seriously. Personally, I believe it is the other conspiracies of that day that shouldn't be taken seriously.
