Creative Speculation
Related: About this forumIt is this simple regarding 9/11...NO ONE has ever came forward and said 'I was part of it!"....
Once again. This "PLAN" would have taken 100s or 1000s of people to pull off.
10 years later, NOT ONE of these people has come forward, felt guilty or told a friend/lover about their part in this plan?
The BIGGEST conspiracy in the history of the world and NOT ONE person has come forward to say "I was part of it!".
In today's world, there would be offers of MILLIONS of dollars for ONE person to come forward with proof that 9/11 was an inside job. Book deals, movie deals, etc.
None of this makes any sense. How you keep 100s of people from ever breaking their silence?
This is the biggest flaw in this whole plan.

(3,829 posts)Common sense should tell anyone that such a massive operation would be exposed. It would be way too complex (actually the conspiracy couldn't be pulled off - exposed or not) to not be exposed.
The burden of proof is on the one making the positive claim. That's why I asked the second question: "please give a plausible explanation on how 9-11 went down since you seem to believe that it took fewer people than what the OP claims."

That is like me saying ask any working 'psychic' to admit that they really have no powers. They believe they do.
The people who worked on the Manhattan project even leaked secrets. The atomic bomb was leaked to many. You cannot get a large group and keep it quiet for long.
Why has no 9/11 participant came forward to sell his story?

(3,829 posts)Homeopathy is out in the open. There are weak laws against their operations. Many people that practice homeopathy actually believe it works, and the rest find it a way to make a quick buck.
Practitioners of homeopathy are a self selected group of people that can easily find other practitioners since they operate in the open.
There is no conceivable way for such a large group of people to get together to commit 9-11. The laws are strong against mass-murder of American citizens. Any attempt would fail, and their cover would be blown.
If I wanted to conspire to commit a 9-11 type attack as truthers claim: Where would I go? Who would I meet? What organization can I find that conducts these types of operations? Do they have a link?
If it was done as a government operation, how would the government find all of the conspirators without their cover being blown? Most people would refuse to take part.

OnTheOtherHand
(7,621 posts)Homeopaths claim that their treatments are tailored to individual patients and conditions. Homeopathy is unfalsifiable (which is not a good thing). Presumably one could prove that a particular homeopath didn't believe in the efficacy of his or her own treatments, but that would no more rebut homeopathy than exposing a doctor as a quack rebuts mainstream medicine.
I think homeopathy is a scam in the sense that it has no medical merit, but I don't know that it is a scam in the sense that it depends upon conscious scammers. I suspect that most of its practitioners believe in it. Regardless, no conspiracy is required.
That said, unless someone specifies a particular 9/11 conspiracy scenario, there is no way to know how many people would have to be involved. The general premise that "the Official Story is untrue" is, in fact, unfalsifiable -- and perhaps trivially true, depending on what is meant by "the Official Story."

(3,845 posts)There are clues and leads that haven't been followed up on that would seem to indicate additional people involved in the funding and coordinating. Who might those people be? Could one or more of them be operatives of our government's covert services? I don't see why not.
There is no reason that having one single US government operative or a small cell of US government operatives involved somehow then means that hundreds or thousands have to be involved. There's no logic to that leap. There certainly could have been a small number of US personnel involved just as easily as a large number.

(3,845 posts)If I understand what you're driving at, you're arguing that there was no inside job. So you think the job could have been pulled of with zero people inside our government involved in it.
If you're right then isn't it also feasible for the job to have been pulled off with all the same people whom you believe did it, plus one single operative inside one of our covert services? Or, alternatively, all the same people whom you believe did it, plus some small tight-knit cadre of people from inside our government. For example, Dick Cheney together with two or three CIA operatives?
That latter example would still be an inside job. Why is that theory not viable? It seems to me you're building up this cast of thousands just so you can knock it down. In other words, you seem to be battling a straw man, no?

No one has said "I was part of the plan".
eomer
(3,845 posts)And you think those scenarios therefore are unlikely because with hundreds involved you think something would have leaked out.
I'm with you on some of that. I also think that scenarios involving a large number of people being in on the whole plot are unlikely because something would have leaked out.
But I think there are lots of scenarios that involve either a smaller total number of people involved or else a small number of people who knew the true plot combined with a larger number of people who played unwitting roles - who did some part but didn't know why they did it.
For example, creating a diversionary apparatus in the form of training exercises would have involved a large number of people but very few of them would have needed to know the true reason for it. A small number of people at the top could have manipulated the timing and synchronicity of the exercises while all the rest of the actors carried them out unwittingly, thinking they were routine operations.
There are lots of variations on this theme and I think lots of them could have been accomplished with only a small cadre of people who knew the true plan.

(15,189 posts)That got paid to do the job, and go back home before it all went down. You know Nutinyahoo said "9/11 was good for Israel" could have been some of their guys who have no American connection, and who doesn't like America. And who would believe them? I take it you don't believe it was an inside job, so if someone did come forward, you and the rest would probably call him a nut. If you think about all the things our government didn't do on 9/11 it should make you wonder what did happen.
Why do we spend so much on defense, but yet our biggest defense building gets hit. The Pentagon was hit at about 9:35 am. The second plane hit the second tower at 8:55. So 40 minutes goes by, and the Pentagon doesn't even close down the highway near the Pentagon. If it were a true attack, how did they know that no trucks with explosives was on it's way? Why didn't they set up SAMS on the roof of the Pentagon? How come they didn't protect D.C.? They are after all, a DEFENSE building.
This is why there has been no trial. How does our government explain all the fails that day. How do they explain DNA that was ID'd when they couldn't even reconstruct any of the planes. So human remains are tougher than a Titanium engine or plane debris. Is that what we are suppose to believe?

(2,693 posts)However, the post i was supposed to judge was thrown into an infinite loop since the post to be judged was deleted by the poster (a very nasty loop, apparently logging out does not cure it!)
So this will be my first post in Creative speculation (the name alone, I have to admire!)
My imagination leads to all things, I am an avid fan of science fiction...however with that i cannot ignore my educational background since before the first page of a SciFi book, I already know it is fiction.
I dearly would love to believe a lot of things that would make the universe a bit more spectacular! (for now the LHC is keeping me more then interested)
In the absence of the broken jury system *infinite loop again*, if asked directly how would those who believe that 9/11 was MIHOP/LIHOP after a decade answer the questions of why there is yet no proof?
To me it really comes down to the difference between a David Weber book (a person whose knowledge of physics is terrible at best!)
and why those who believe the 9/11 was not as it appears is true?
eomer
(3,845 posts)First, there are crimes every day for which there is never "proof". Because I take it you're looking for some single or compact finding that solves the case and eliminates all doubt - a Perry Mason moment as it were. That happens all the time in fiction but not so much in real life.
So there isn't proof of that type but what there is is evidence. Especially for LIHOP there is a lot of evidence that makes a pretty convincing case. It has been established that the Bush cabal had realized that a massive attack on the U.S. would enable them to do some things they really wanted to do. It has been established that they had ample warning. And it has been established that they were determined, stubbornly, to not respond to the warnings. And, finally, they clearly lied afterward about many of the facts including the warnings and their inaction. All these add up to a very strong case of at least LIHOP.
Regarding MIHOP, to some extent the reason there isn't more to go on is because they didn't like where the evidence was leading. When indications were found that funding came from Pakistan and Saudi Arabia they refused to follow those leads and gave us the explanation that it really wasn't necessary to follow the money. That, of course, is an obvious and outrageous lie. Following the money was an essential thread of the investigation, especially the investigation of who the high-level sponsors of the attack were. So if we don't have "proof" of who the sponsors were, it's at least partly because they didn't like who it was pointing to. We have no way of knowing, to date, whether that was just because it was pointing toward allies of the Bush cabal or, even more, was going to implicate the Bush cabal itself, directly, if followed.
I think it's almost certain that more people were involved than have been revealed so far and that therefore there definitely are parts of this story that are true even though "proof" for them hasn't yet been found. Those leads in Pakistan and Saudi Arabia simply have to have involved more than one person in each and those additional people have not yet been found. And there's no "proof" for anyone beyond the 19 perps, yet there obviously would have been more people than that involved in the instigation and planning of the attack.
Clearly there were more people involved than we have found out about. And the Bush cabal seem the most likely suspects to me based on motive, opportunity, circumstantial evidence, and lying about so many things afterward. If I were a juror I would find the sum of the evidence enough to convict G.W. Bush and Dick Cheney in a way similar to the guilty verdict of Scott Peterson, for which there was no "proof", but merely evidence.

OnTheOtherHand
(7,621 posts)As for the physics arguments that the twin towers must have been taken down by CD, I suppose if I believed those arguments, I would construe that they had already been proven, at least by a preponderance of the evidence.
Different allegations entail different implications. As eomer points out, we wouldn't expect to have conclusive proof for (or against) all such implications, even if such proof is obtainable in principle.
Riftaxe
(2,693 posts)is that steel is malleable a long time before it reaches melting, and by that time both towers were the center of attention.
One of the things brought up on the old DU2 board was why there no explosions heard?
Since it was a "cage" design, any explosives strong enough to blow a support, would have certainly propelled debri much further then anything in the videos taken suggest.
That and i am sure it would be loud enough to blow the mic's on the ground at the very least.
OnTheOtherHand
(7,621 posts)As to the question why no explosions were heard, you may get the response that explosions were indeed heard, and besides, thermite can be silent. I don't see many attempts to piece such assertions into a plausible explanation of what happened.
Politicalboi
(15,189 posts)The falling debris isn't enough? How do squibs happen 30 stories below if what they say floors dropping caused it. How did those floors cause squibs 30 stories below? Or how come the lobby had all it's windows blown out, but windows above and near the crash site were intact? And a lot of people heard explosions. I think some people got blown out of the building and they didn't jump as thought. When the towers are collapsing, you can see huge beams flying away from the building. If the pancake theory were true, there should have been 50 stories of debris with the center columns still standing. Even their quack demo video shows the center columns standing, but we saw what was really left. The official story is junk science.

A couple of years ago, I had a few white supremacists bragging about helping plant explosives in the towers. It was a way for them to hit the "ZOG" {Zionist Occupied Government} where it hurt, and usher in "the day of the rope", which is their dream of taking over the Government. They were very loud, vocal and brash about it, in a public setting at an indoor flea market, with hundreds of people around. Strangely, within a period of about 5-6 weeks, all four were dead.. 2 in separate motorcycle accidents, the other two together in a single vehicle crash. All late at night, on isolated roads.

I definitely am of Bulow's viewpoint, too many things worked in favor of the hijackers for coincidence. But how many needed to know the full picture? Outside of the core I would argue, few.

(114 posts)1. Significant air exercises, not necessarily linked to each other, are scheduled for 11 Sep.
2. The alleged hijackers just happen to pick that day to execute.
3. Warnings of attacks using planes come in from several other countries' intel agencies - bureaucratic ineptitude prevents any response
4. Warnings of attacks using planes come in from the Pentagon's 'Able Danger' task force - again - bureaucratic ineptitude prevents any response
5. The same airport security company handled security for Dulles, Newark & Logan
6. No hijacking signals were sent from any of the four planes
7. The 'Unseen Hand' - Even though the planes (I believe all four) took off late and there was no way for the alleged hijackers to communicate once off the ground, the first three planes all execute a sequential attack, i.e. the second plane doesn't deviate from its course until the first one is on its final approach, the third plane doesn't deviate from course until the second plane is on its final approach.

(114 posts)1. Most of the account of "Collateral Damage: U.S. Covert Operations and the Terrorist Attacks on
September 11, 2001" is true. Destroying the trail of evidence and crashing the US financial system until the Fed resets it. This is the motive and helps to explain why the Office of Naval Intelligence in the Pentagon was hit and not the White House (which surely should have been the target of whichever plane reached Washington first).
2. A cover operation of Arab hijackers was developed (strung-along patsies) and the planes were remote-controlled in (Flt 93 took off 25 min. late and lost it's operational window and was put down on purpose).
3. Some destructive mechanism was used inside the towers that melted cars 5 blocks away, created particles far smaller than can be explained through pulverization, caused two separate 'tubular cages' to burrow down some 70+ stories through their larger and more stable bottoms and burned in the rubble for 3 months.
4. We're back in Eurasia and War's On!
In view all we know about the CIA via drug running, arms smuggling, their wall street origins, sure, it's plausible. What's 3,000 lives in a world of 6 billion with Eurasia at stake?

Your operation would take thousands of people to pull off and could never be accomplished. It would be exposed very easily and quickly, before it ever got off the ground. No sane person would ever take part - let alone thousands.
The simple hijacking and crashing of airliners into the towers and Pentagon could be accomplished with very few people. And that is what all of the evidence supports.

(114 posts)....a conspiracy that was planned and executed over almost a year and a half, involved dozens & dozens of persons, if not several hundred, in a half-dozen countries. NOBODY said anything about this conspiracy until Eugen Hasenfuss was shot down.
Your assertion that people, and lots of them, can't keep a secret, doesn't hold.

The negative consequences for the Iran-Contra conspirators were small. Oliver North was actually made a hero by the dumb fucks on the right. What do you think would happen if a 9-11 conspirator was exposed - made a hero?
It's impossible to assembly all of the necessary experts to pull off a 9-11 inside job. Most people would go to the police if asked to take part in mass murder against their own citizens. The politicians themselves don't have such expertise. In fact, no one has the expertise to pull off a 9-11 type inside job.

(114 posts)wasn't it? Nobody was talking.
My old scoutmaster was the McDonnell Douglas International Sales Manager for the F4 at that time. I later asked him if Mac was supplying the parts and he said no, Israel was counterfeiting them. This fellow was once a navy test pilot and John Glenn's roomate at one time. Very patriotic. And he never spoke up although he knew something was amiss. He didn't know the full picture at the time. But still, he didn't open his mouth about the piece he had.
Two old friends of mine are pastors and they abhor conspiracy theory (I prefer to call it Collusion Analysis), always saying, 'Nobody would be so evil.' Hah! I find that a strange response coming from a pastor but whatever. Individuals and groups follow their self-interests. When it gets extreme, we call it evil. But it is certainly there.
Operation Northwoods contemplated killing Americans. We now know of US government medical experimentation on unsuspecting Americans. There are plenty of people in the right circles available for something like 9-11. As we slowly and painfully learn over decades, such individuals have always been in or around our government.

(15,189 posts)Just common sense. How did our government react after 9/11. When the Pentagon shows us the ONLY proof of the attack in a blurry video and we all accept it, why would we believe someone who knows what really happen. People like you would just say they are just "truthers". People like you are the ones who believe steel and concrete collapse due to fire at 10 stories a second. How can we help you believe that it can't? Why WTC7? No plane hit it. There was also the other WTC's that didn't collapse that were closer to towers 1 and 2. And a shit load of debris fell on those.
But if I were ever convicted of a crime, and the video they showed me was blurry and it wasn't even me, should I accept their "evidence"? Or should fight it? Why aren't we fighting to find the truth. Those that fight, get called names, and aren't taken seriously. Why are we taking their word? These are the same assholes that brought us into war over lies. I don't accept the Pentagon video as evidence. It shows us NOTHING.

(798 posts)A massive conspiracy to cheat and cover up. The game was on for over 15 years. Hundreds of people were involved, many bribed or threathened. The people who came forward on foul play were ridiculed, blacklisted, humiliated and outcast.
Why? Not for the act of cheating in itself, but for massive gains. If there's enough money to be made, people will turmn a blind eye to anything.
And here comes the parallel.
Suggestions, accusations and suspicions ran wild. Outers were prosecuted. Everybody took dope, except for Lance Armstrong, the great hero.
In the end, it turned out he bribed officials, blackmailed team mates and cheated from the beginning.
I never believed Armstrong was clean. The official story never convinced me. Too many gaps, too many loose ends, too many people involved.
Same goes for the 9/11 official report. Too many unanswered questions, too little evidence to support the government stance.
