Then how was that close to "hate speech"? Maybe they were tracking the perps before 9-11. Maybe. Maybe they were orchestrating the attack. Maybe they knew about it and did not warn us because they new it would be in their interest. I did not espouse any of those possibilities. I simply presented the concrete evidence to show that the Egyptians have more reason to believe their conspiracy theory than Americans have for their theory. Tom

I've seen posts on SI over the past couple of days that France, Russia and Israel acted together to do 9/11. This poster has a following among certain threads that tend to be anti-Israel. How he came up with that combination of nations is beyond me. I don't think you could get those 3 to agree on which wine to have with dinner. Yet, that poster is "convinced" and will probably "convince" others of his theory. The Israeli connection has been thoroughly investigated. If there were something there, I'm sure it would deserve more than a "scant" mention. It is clear that, if there is anything being hidden, it is that of the Saudi involvement. Anything else is vague speculation. There is no doubt that the Palestinians were dancing in the street in celebration as you posted. If I were a conspiracy "nut," from that I could then post the conclusion that Palestinians were involved in 9/11, a conclusion which is IMO absurd. I'm sure that someone could come up with a theory that Bylorussians had something to do with. (I mention Bylorussia only because I think that there aren't any in the US and I don't even know if it still exists, my apologies if there are any natives from there reading this.) It's possible on the internet to prove to one's group thinkers almost anything. Similarly, it is impossible to disprove anything, no matter how rationale, 100%. Can you prove there is no green cheese (perhaps petrified) on the moon? with 100% certainty?
