    I’m going to give this loon a bit more charitable interpretation and guess they meant we blew up our own buildings in order to have an excuse to go to war in the Middle East so we could get the gold in Nimrod’s tomb.

    Which… is even crazier than the tomb being under the twin towers. We killed all those people and destroyed all that real estate to start a very expensive war… for some gold.

    I mean, boy, that tomb better be like Smaug’s lair in that case, or our government tripped over a dollar to pick up a dime.

    The US government blew up two prized buildings and killed thousands of its own citizens to be able to dig underneath them to find a a tomb that was buried there. Got it.

    But why wouldn’t they have just unearthed it when they built the towers? Why did they need to destroy them? Wouldn’t excavating be easier without two piles of smoldering death on top of it?

    This person is wildly detached from reality.
