Anyone smell a rat?

I have been re-reading the official 9/11 report. It is quite a complex document and requires study and not just reading. The style of the report is innovative to anyone who reads UK-style government reports as it is more like a novel that a Chapter 1, section 1 The Beginning sort of thing. I wanted to give it a bit of a revision after the hurricane of theories that have grown up around the incident. Real conspiracy-theory fodder certainly but some of these do seem well constructed.
Lots of things in the official story just don’t seem, prima-facie, to line up. There is the Pentagon attack where a considerable body of ‘evidence’ suggests that it was a missile strike and not a large airliner crashing into the building. Seems that Old Rummy has spoken in public about missile strike. Given he is a bit flaky, nothing conclusive about that but it is just another pennyweight on the scales of belief.
There is also argument about recovery of any black boxes. Seems labourers at WTC are quite clear that such items were recovered but that mention of these finds was muffled by the FBI. There is a suggestion that the second aircraft which struck the WTC was a military 767/300 and not a American Airline 767/200. Different shape and weapons pods under the wings are cited as background for this allegation. It is almost arbitrary in all good conspiracy theories that someone who gets close to ‘The Truth’ dies either at their own hand or some unlikely accident. Yes – there’s one here as well in the form of a TV reporter who claims that he was warned in an anonymous telephone call that he would be killed if he did not cease his inquiry. Sure enough, he dies in what looked like suicide and none of his friends is able to explain what made him do this.
There were initial reports that identification of the terrorists on the planes was wrong. Of these 19, seven have resurfaced alive and well. It is claimed. This may have a reasonable foundation as some deceased’s parents denied that their lovely boy could not possibly have done such a thing. Formal identity is not a high priority in many Arab countries,
There are a myriad pieces of ‘evidence’ which support these theories. As fast as the conspiracy supporters make their claims, the debunkers hit back. Just doing a search on Google for 911 Conspiracy shows how near to a business it has all become. One ‘fact’ has taken on a life of it’s own. Muslim media firmly believes that the attack on WTC was not just an attempt to divert attention from poor economics but involved Israel. This comes from a "news report" that 4,000 Israelis called in sick from their jobs at the World Trade Center on Sept. 11. Nice, but no where near that number were employed in the building.
