yea but that was a small part of the money.. look at the insurance policy that was paid out on the buildings. That was like 5 billion wasn't it? Then there are the questions about the billions of dollars of gold that was stored in the WTC vaults. lots of different reports on how much was lost and how much was recovered.

I'm not saying money would have been a reason it was done, but rather more of proof (at least in the stocks) that some people knew something was going to happen.

So the conspiracy I think about, is who knew enough about what was going to happen, that they were able to profit by shorting the stocks. Again I don't really buy into the conspiracy theories, but I do think some high up's knew something was going to happen.
