I suppose you could be right that a relatively small bunch of people could have been involved as long as you keep the conspiracy relatively simple. That is to say if perhaps the hijackers were in fact US goverment agents, and had a fairly small group of handlers, that yes it might be reasonable to expect everything might be kept quiet. Unfortunately, the "truthers" don't limit their vision of what happened to such a simple premise. As the conspiracy is so complex, the necessary number of people "in the know" would be so large that it's unreasonable to expect such a level of secrecy.
To facilitate the most common claims of the "truthers", at least some level of involvment would be required from many different groups of people:
- Hijackers and handlers
- NORAD command.
- Most if not all of high level millitary brass.
- White house
- Millitary staff to launch cruise missile.
- Millitary staff to dispose of planes and people not actually used in attack
- Millitary staff to plant plane parts at Pentagon.
- A huge number of explosive and demolition experts to rig the most complicated demolition in history made even more complicated by the fact that it must be completed in absolute secrecy, with no visible evidence, and still work flawlessly after an airplane is flown in to the building.
- At least some of the NYC FD. Remember, apparently one of the captains "pulled" the building on orders from Mr. Silverstein. This is particularily sticky because you have to assume that someone who has spent their life as a civil servant suddenly became OK with wreckless demolition in the midst of a disaster.
- Mr. Silverstein et. all
- News reporters and organizations, including apparently the UK channel that broadcast the information of the towers falling before they did. If they were in on it, surely someone there knew.
Really, that's just a simple list and you could easily expand on it. Now you get an idea of how ridiculous the scope of this conpsiracy is.
We can probably agree that their are some holes in the official version. Unforuntately, many of you fail to see that the holes in the combined truther theoris are so vast they can only be described as gaping. By your own standards, your explanation fails.
