MIHOP means "Made It Happen On Purpose," and its gradations center on whether Bush was in or out of the loop (a surprising number believe he was clueless) and whether the Mossad or British intelligence was dealt into the deal."
Now THAT makes a lot more sense than anything mentioned previously.
"Let it happen on purpose"...I'm much more willing to believe that than the government had their hands on it directly.
Knowing what government bureaucracy is like however and hearing some of the tape recordings I've heard on the issue, I'd still tend to believe that the government just fucked up (or simply weren't prepared) and are hiding how BAD they fucked up...but "LIHOP" ISN'T out of the realm of possibility either.
