the easier for you to knock over, a sort of straw building if you will.
Think about this: even the official narrative posits a 'conspiracy' of sorts, between 19 hijackers and their paymasters and coordinators.
Now consider the various gradations between pure coincidence theory (the way I classify the official narrative), LIHOP (let it happen on purpose) and MIHOP (made it happen on purpose). Do you think that a LIHOP conspiracy would require "100s of people" or simply a few winks and nods among sociopaths like Rumsfeld and Cheney? Remember that Richard Clarke testified publicly that the intel community was screaming that an attack was imminent in the weeks and months before 9-11. I'm sure Clarke has spent more than a few sleepless nights contemplating the possibility of LIHOP happening despite the 'code red' status of many of the relevant parties.
A conspiracy requires only two or more people, not 100s.
I am indebted to David Ray Griffin and his seminal work "The New Pearl Harbor" for helping me think rationally about this.
