"It's not a conspiracy theory, or jumping the gun, if you default to the most common explanation until facts arrive."

or -- default to the worst-case explanation until facts appear...

It seems to me that in this time when suicide/homocide bombing is de rigeur, any other attitude would be suicidal.

As far as I'm concerned, after 9/11, the burden of proof belongs to the "nothing to see here" crowd.

Remember the initial 9/11 reports that of the "accident" of an airplane running into the WTC.

remember Katie Couric - "what's the matter with those air traffic controllers and the pilots?" Brokaw had to jump in and talk over her instantly to make her shutup.

Which was entirely possible until the second one showed up.

I agree with you, Uncle Ike and al Queda likes to return to the scene of prior crimes: World Trade Center, Bali, etc., and they never received their proper credit for their 1995 crimes.

How many people even know the prime suspect, believed to be involved with Tim McVey and with him in the Ryder Truck when scoping the building, was working at Boston's Logan Airport on 9/11.

I don't believe in coincidence.

The most intelligent comment yet posted on this thread.

Damned shame there haven't been more like it.
