Okay, this has gotten way off track ... still arguing the details I see!
For those who believe it's a conspiracy, pretend for a sec you're a District Attorney and you've been ordered to "bring down" those responsible for this horrific act.
1) Who do you charge with it and why?
1a) What evidence do you have they were involved?
2) Okay, if you've gotten past that and we'll assume for this point a judge decides you have enough evidence .. you're in court now with a jury. Convince them (in this, case me and GFY) that this person, or people, were involved ... remember, beyond a reasonable doubt.
I doubt if you were honest you didn't get past point #1. Because you don't have a clue who did it, or at least nothing even remotely close to evidence *specific* people were involved in a conspiracy.
So now, go be a Woodward-Bernstein and actually investigate.
Find out who *exactly* planted the bombs in the building (that does not mean "the military" - you're in court now, we need names).
Find out who *exactly* stole the gold.
Find out who *exactly* created/falsified the Bin Laden confession tapes.
Find out who *exactly* set up/remotely piloted/programmed the drones to hit the WTC.
And on and on...
You can't. Not one name. Not one identified person in a conspiracy of at least hundreds.
Call up the Loose Change boys and tell them to watch All The President's Men. I.E.
Investigate, not throw together a bunch of mostly unrelated anecdotal and circumstantial evidence and collectively label them a "conspiracy".
Tell them to think like a prosecutor - you don't prove beyond a reasonable doubt by poking holes, you do it by presenting HARD facts and THEN you create your documentary or write a column for the Washington Post.
See Steve's post a few pages back on conspiracies in general and you'll see that the simplest - and therefore, most logical - explanation is that what everyone saw on TV and in real life is what happened. The alternative, the conspiracy about explosives, missiles, drones and missing gold, is but you'd have us believe THAT is the only explanation .. the one far more complicated to the point of nearly impossible.
I'm done on this topic until someone confesses or charges are laid.
