You expect to run into 9/11 Truthers at Michael Moore screenings and Daily Kos conventions, but I never expected to see one elected to the Japanese Diet, grilling the prime minister:

Yukihisa Fujita of the Japan Democratic party, made a 20 minute long statement at the House of Councillors, the upper house of the Diet (parliament) of Japan, ahead of the voting....

He presented several largescale photographs of: the Pentagon entry and exit hole, the flight path towards the Pentagon, the exploding WTC towers and the WTC 7 collapse.

He concluded that the japanese governments support of the "war against terror" is solely based on information provided by the US-administration. He demanded further investigation in the face of the governments drive to support the war more actively.

We've all seen presentations by Truther wackos. It's surreal to see such a presentation put on by a high-ranking elected official, in the legislature of one of our closest allies:
