"It is quite plausible that explosives were pre-planted in all three buildings and set off after the two plane crashes — which were actually a diversion tactic," he writes. "Muslims are (probably) not to blame for bringing down the WTC buildings after all," Jones writes.

This is rather nonsensical. If, as this guy claims, someone else planted the explosives, how did they get the Muslims to carry out the "diversion tactic"? Further, he is claiming that someone went to elaborate work to carefully place explosives in three buildings, in order to carefully drop them in place, then somehow orchestrated an additional strike involving planes and a third party which clearly ran the risk of thwarting the first step, either by toppling the buildings or by increasing the chances of getting caught. Prof Jones has the cajones to say his theory benefits from parsimony. What??
