So, given this easily demonstrable problem with the official conspiracy

Commission go ahead naming the same names without even once interrogating
their identities?  Perhaps simply because its Executive Director, who was
instrumental in controlling the agenda of the Commission, is an earlier
co-author with Dr. Condoleezza Rice and is now appointed in the State
Department to a major position.

Many, many people in the Arab world know such things, things which a
person like Cockburn choses to completely ignore and instead refer to nut
cases.

It's the definition of conspiracy that perturbs me, as it looks to be an
attempt to silence or quell criticism of *any* part of the official
story. For instance, I don't accept the demolition theory of the
collapse of any building. I know there was fuel storage for a backup
generator in one of the buildings that *could* have exploded (overheated
diesel), but 'controlled charging'? I don't think so.

On the issue of the main towers: Take the top off a building with...
what... 50-100 mph winds blowing across it, and the torsional flex alone
would eventually break it apart. You could demonstrate this effect with
a cardboard box sans top and a large fan used on a theater stage for
simulating wind.

OTOH, the idea that within hours of the hits, they had the f'ing
passports and identity papers.

Right.

We're talking about people who lose baggage, even AFTER terrorism
becomes a grave threat....

We're talking about the "managers" of disaster aid for hurricane Katrina.

...and they f'ing found the passports, had the name of the lead man,
UBL. Within hours...

I think an explanation is in order.

Am I a "conspiracy nut"?
