Right, WTC as a target doesn't make any strategic sense. Either they were very stupid at picking their targets, or their goals are not quite so obvious - Unless the strategy was to short-sell the stock market the day before. Did the FTC/FBI/NSA/CIA/etc find anything along these lines (yet)? I've not been paying much attention to the news as of late.
