It is as likely or more likely that 9/11 was an inside job as compared to any other scenario.

1. Agreed. 2. Physics doesn't require the plane to create a cookie cutter outline, it does however still deem structural damage from where the wings would hit the pentagon. As far as the bomb scenario goes I cannot prove that the government did hire people as much as you cannot prove they didn't. I agree that it would require at least a few people to be hired by the government to say that they were sad a family member had died. On the other hand scrap metal and debris is also created by a missle and the pentagon, we don't have to place the debris. The painting that was found looked like the words on the side of American Airlines, this doesn't mean it was, no letters were found, just painted panels. The idea behind a conspiracy theory is questioning the facts put forth by the government. As they control the information in the case of a conspiracy it is possible for them to change the "facts". 3. My opponent drops probably the largest point on the Pentagon. That being that multiple cameras from privately owned businesses were seized shortly following the attack. Why? 5. A missile has thrust in the same sense that a plane does. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The propulsion behind a missile shoots the same amount of force backwards as goes forwards into propelling the missile. Meaning anything that the missile goes by has the potential of being knocked over. This is why you don't stand directly behind a jet or a missile for that matter when it takes off. Secondly I'm not suggesting that the missile went into the building and then came back out and exploded. I'm suggesting part of the missile exploded on impact while the rest of the missile punched through 5 different walls. You can say it couldn't happen all you want but it doesn't change the fact that something went through those walls. Hijackers: 1&2: Nope pretty positive that passport was unsinged. Not to mention there was not plane debris found on the ground. The only thing I have ever heard of being found in the WTC wreckage was part of a landing gear. 3. That doesn't make sense considering the fact that the CIA released pictures of the people 2 days after the attack. Unless of course you are saying that two people also look exactly the same with the same names. Here explain this: http://news.bbc.co.uk... WTC 1 2 & 7 1. Those buildings definitely fell in just under 10 seconds. If we examine my opponents first video the building actually begins falling around 18 seconds. The cameraman looks back around 27 seconds and the building is all but gone. Here is another amazing video of the collapse. http://www.youtube.com... Takes about 11 seconds on this one as far as counting off of Youtubes counter goes. "FACTS" Let me quote from the article I sited. "We know that the term 'pull it' means to bring the building down by means of explosives because in the same documentary a cleanup worker (in December 2001) refers to the demolition of WTC Building 6 when he says, "...we're getting ready to pull the building six." The term is industry jargon for planned demolition." and "Some defenders of the official 9/11 story say that the term "pull" is not demolition lingo for "bring down by controlled demolition". However, the same PBS video in which Silverstein makes his admission, contains the following exchange: (unidentified construction worker): "Hello? Oh, we're getting ready to pull building six." Luis Mendes, NYC Dept of Design and Construction: "We had to be very careful how we demolished building six. We were worried about the building six coming down and then damaging the slurry walls, so we wanted that particular building to fall within a certain area."" 3. My opponent decides to drop this: "3. There is a plethora of evidence of molten steel at WTC specifically: http://www.whatreallyhappened.com...... In fact the temperature of some of these spots ranged above 3000 F. This situation alone could not have been created by jet fuel fires. Finally there was thermate found under both of the WTC buildings. This being found by a professor at BYU. http://portland.indymedia.org...... "
