Because if there is strong evidence that those Arabs did not do it, it is automatically also strong evidence of a giant cover up. As of now there isn't any evidence of that, that is why you only find 911 conspiracies in the fringes of the web. Most people (including me) require adequate evidence in order to be convinced of something.
Maybe you don't care about the world around you, but if you do, you will find evidence for what you believe very important.

There is a huge difference between believing everything the government says and not accepting all those impossible conspiracy theories you hear about on these forums as if it was the truth.
In fact, I don't care much about what the government says, as their function is not to tell us what is true and what is not is not. For that we use science. Anyone who uses the government as source for their believes is in my opinion not very clever. Got to say that I don't know anyone like that, everyone I know has a healthy or unhealthy distrust towards the government.

All the data that demonstrates that they indeed succeeded in flying those planes into those buildings. If they failed at outsmarting the defenses, they would have failed at hitting their targets. In fact, one plane very likely did fail.
I don't need any government telling me this.edit on 26-10-2012 by -PLB- because: (no reason given)

On historical events, science has limited value. But we can still apply its methods. In science, hypothesis's that are unsupported by evidence are rejected, and hypothesis that are supported by evidence are accepted. The hypothesis that there was anyone else than those hijackers involved is not supported by evidence. There isn't even any suspect. So we can discard that hypothesis, until perhaps one day evidence surfaces. For the hypothesis that the planes were hijacked there is very strong evidence. So we do accept that hypothesis.
I don't need any government to come to this conclusion.

To the less observant person that could probably indeed be the only difference.

Been posted already. Security camera, passenger lists, phone calls. Background research revealed flight training etc.
Question, what would you accept as evidence? And is this reasonable? (prediction: no answer to this question)

I would accept all of the above.. But lets be real here... Security camera from the wrong airport boarding the Wrong airplane. passenger list released didn't have these people, only after people asked did they release a new list. Background research reveals that they were watched by every agency who we pay for protection, that they liked drugs and strippers which contradicts the profile of Islamic terrorists. They were drawing attention to themselves everywhere they went. The suitcase in the rent a car story belongs in worlds dumbest criminals episode. I already said how I feel about the passport miracle. All that's left is the audio from the planes which is same as what I provided to back up my hypothesis of beaves and butthead did 9/11. Oh yeah and the red bandana too, i would believe if they didn't pretended that they found it in the wreckage.
And I return back to what I already said many times.. It makes no difference who hijacked the planes because the number one suspects are those who covered it up. Innocents does not need to be covered up.edit on 26-10-2012 by maxella1 because: (no reason given)edit on 26-10-2012 by maxella1 because: (no reason given)
Here we go again with the nonsense. Airport in on it, American airlines in on it, victims in on it. And voilla, you can discard the actual evidence based on something you saw in a Youtube video. How can you be so sure that these Youtube videos are not packed with lies? Which is easily demonstrably to be the case by the way
If you are going to believe all this crap, no evidence will do. You will always invent a reason to discard it. And lets face it, you have nothing to offer as alternative. Just hand waving and incredulity.
At least you unintentionally acknowledged there is not at all only one difference with that beavis and buthead youtube.
Your primary source is Youtube?
How does this relate to the conspiracy? Was FEMA part of the conspiracy in your version? Including all its employees?
Because people can confuse days
A tiny bit more background research reveals this.
NEW YORK CITY OFFICE OF EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT HOLDS TRIAL POINT-OF-DISPENSING DRILL (TRIPOD)
USDOJ Assistant Attorney General Deborah J. Daniels said, "The Office of Justice Programs, through its Office for Domestic Preparedness, is pleased to support the New York City TriPOD Exercise. We look forward to strengthening our partnership with the City of New York, through continued strong support of its domestic preparedness activities."
May 8, 2001: Cheney to Oversee National Effort for Responding to Domestic Attacks, but No Action Is Taken before 9/11
According to Bush, the ONP “will coordinate all Federal programs dealing with weapons of mass destruction consequence management within the Departments of Defense, Health and Human Services, Justice, and Energy, the Environmental Protection Agency, and other federal agencies.”
FEMA: No prior knowledge of 9-11
The Federal Emergency Management Agency has said it did not have urban search and rescue teams in place in New York City prior to the Sept. 11 attacks, contrary to an Internet-based rumor alleging otherwise.
Long Debunked "Rumor" Validated by Giuliani
Although reports indicate that Cheney never convened any meetings of this Task Force prior to September 2001, it seems that there must have been some sort of planning involved with the organization and scheduling of Operation TRIPOD for September 12, 2001. With all of the unpleasant news of 9/11, it must have pleased Cheney that the scheduling of this drill made the pre-assembled emergency team immediately available to New York City. Who would have thought?
