Very naive assumption.
All operations have fallbacks.
And 9/11 (like the Iraq War) is full of them.

One of the themes currently emerging to replace the "Al Qaeda did it" plotline of 9/11, is the subtle suggestion that the Israelis, the Mossad or their controlled agents at the Pentagon, carried out 9/11.
Of course that is not officially sanctioned.
Officially, that is regarded as anti-Israel bias or even "anti-semitic" bigotry.
Recall how quickly FOX yanked Carl Cameron's coverage of the "Israeli art student" story; or the propagation of the "dancing Israelis in New Jersey on 9/11" story, which circulated and then disappeared.
The stories were set loose, then disappeared.
Classic manipulation by media psy-op.
One could see how various intelligence agencies might be delegated to throw out those periodic red-herring, to muddy the waters around 9/11, especially by assoicating the rumors with names (and often dual-citizenships) like Perle, Wolfowitz, Feith, Chertoff, Zakheim and so many of the high-profile "neo-cons" and PNAC names held out in public as delegated goats for both 9/11 and the Iraq quagmire.

It really is a deceitful and maniplative kind of psy-op (right out of Rumsfeld's P2-OG black bag) to taint questions about 9/11, in advance, with the stain of bigotry and anti-semitism.
It shows that the media were already being used, in the immediate days after 9/11, to mold and manipulate and discredit any reasonable challenges to the officially sanctioned myth of 19 crazed Arab Muslims with boxcutters, and their brilliant mastermind back in Afghanistan.
But it works effectively to arbitrarily and pre-emptively shut down the flood of questions about the absurdities, inconsistencies and sheer impossibilities of the official psy-op legend of 9/11.
