The Green Party seems to be taking more of a hardcore position on 9/11 truth than the Libertarians. Here are some exceprts from a Green Party of the United States press release JULY 29, 2004:Leaders of the Green Party ... called for more far-reaching investigation into the failure to discover and prevent the attacks and into the White House's response to the attacks.

-- Details of negotiations that took place between the US government and the Taliban before 9/11 relating to the construction of a pipeline through Afghanistan
