I don't find *any* of the theories satisfactory, frankly...most of the conspiracies seem to requre everybody and his brother to be part of the cover
up, and the official story (as you point out) has some serious holes in it as well. Call me a universal skeptic :-D
What I'm finding interesting about the 9/11 mess is the continued proliferation of theories....all of which seem to claim 'conclusive proof', and
several of which seem to be mutually exclusive. I guess the best way to clarify what I'm talking about would be to compare 9/11 and the Kennedy
assassination. Both were events seen by thousands, either live or on television, both produced a period of national shock, and both (within days)
began spawning whole rafts of alternate explanations / conspiracies. At one point, you could find 'conclusive proof' of about 10-12 gunmen in
various places, working for everybody from the Mafia to the CIA, with stops in Cuba, Moscow, and the Republican Party, all taking shots at JFK's
motorcade. Similarly, soon after 9/11, there was a flood of theories about who and why and how. The difference being that, after a bit of time, most
of the Kennedy Conspiracies have more or less died out...very few people are still holding forth for the rifleman (or riflemen) on the side of the
plaza opposite the Book Depository, for example. With 9/11, that 'dying off' doesn't seem to be happening...instead, there's a new theory every
week, it seems, and they seem to be getting wilder by the generation. I'm wondering why that is....and the only explanation I can think of is the one
that I put in my first post. As for 'who hates us', that's not a simple question, so giving it a 'simple' answer is probably worse than giving it
no answer at all...it might be interesting to start a list, though, and see how it stacks up against the primary actors in some of the various
theories.
