30. What EXACTLY is absurd? What step? What claim? BE SPECIFIC.
It's a "conspiracy", yes. But it's a "Conspiracy Theory" only if it is wildly improbable AND there is no credible evidence.

What's incredible?

=>Plotting in Afghanistan? They had a whole f'ing country to work with. Training camps. Years to think about it. A history of previous hijackings for experience.

=>19 young men? There have been hundreds of suicide bombers in Iraq, Israel. Japanese Kamikaze. It's hard to understand, but it happens.

=>Hijacking planes? Call a travel agent, get 19 tickets, get to the airport on time, hijack the planes. What's hard?

=>Flying the planes? They'd had some training and expert pilots say the controls of a 767 aren't much different than a piper cub. Besides, they didn't have to take off, or land.

WHAT'S INCREDIBLE ABOUT THIS?
