a couple of weeks ago after watching BBC 2s Conspiracy Files programme concerning the 9/11 world trade centre disaster, I posted a question on yahoo answers which went: Was BBC2s "The Conspiracy Files" programme 18.02.07 disinformation dealt to the British public concerning 9/11?
The question was on the site for less than 24hrs before it was pulled. Yahoo told me that it was removed because it was not a question but as anyone can see, it plainly is. I have tried to contact yahoo customer services but to no avail and they just seem to be ignoring my emails in the hope that I will forget about it and stop bothering them. Has anybody had a similar experience and does anyone out there feel that this could be part of the whole 9/11 conspiracy to silence people who start to dig and ask what is deemed the wrong questions?

People are often irritated about nonsense questions and askers
get enough complaints that Yahoo takes them down....
I know you do not feel yours was a nonsense question but evidently a lot of other people did...

Actually Yahoo "customer service" does not exist. You will never get an answer (ironic isn't it?).
I too asked two politically sensitive questions in the past which were pulled, presumably because the questions were politically too sensitive/embarrassing, (one related to the USS Liberty incident).
I don't think there is anything too sinister going on here as anyone can object and have a question pulled, public or even dare I say security service.
Try asking the question again, try varying your style, perhaps you upset someone , anyway if you try again they might not be on-line next time!
Good luck and keep at it, true democracy takes time and effort to uphold.
Best wishes.

It's all to do with the Amtruth, listen to the accents on Radio 4 to know that despite the BBC being paid for by the British, it's bias is truly American. Would have liked to see the Conspiracy files programme include the WTC7 footage where you see the explosives going off that demolished the building.

Someone I know, launched a website, with an animated giff which put a finger up at G.W. Bush. Within a few days, 100's of 1,000's of Americans had viewed the site, then suddenly it was pulled down by the US government.
So much for freedom of speech!

Question most probably needed to be reworded as you have done now, for it to get through. Anyway there was NO conspiracy. You saw what happened, what more do you want. People are dying all the time through some sort of action. If I were you, blame Osama ben whatshisname and his likes. Most conspiracy theorists lack any trust in people.

Yes.
If your question is in any way detrimental to the good order and dicipline of the state, it will be pulled.
While the Government cannot pull websites it can control the search engines, the main search engines ie yahoo and google are government owned and reside in government buildings.
The society you live in sees the public as a product to be farmed.
you will be exploited, profeted from and culled as they see fit.

How very strange. It quite obviously is a question. Having not seen the program I cant answer your initial question but i hope you carry on your quest for your answer to why it was pulled.

not sure about the yahoo stuff but the answer to your question was that it was trash journalism at its extreme - so yes!
