There is no doubt that US government has shady dealings, but there is a point when things start to get ridiculous.

Spinning it that way, yes, it does sound like its on the edge of reason. But if you look at objectives that the group in question had, then maybe there is something to some of the theories. We know that there were elements within the Bush administration that had the desire to appease certain powerful lobbies in Washington (big oil, military industrial complex, etc.), and in the same breath make themselves some big money. We know that they had a desire to control access to information and in the same breath enhance their own access to information. We know that they wanted to enhance their control over many of the institutions that impact international policy. We know this because they published these desires. We also know that they foresaw threats/opportunities like this when they described the new Pearl Harbor. When you look at the the surface, it is on the edge to think such things. When you look beneath the surface at the undercurrents its not that nutty. We are talking about a group that lied their ever luvin' asses off to get into Iraq, spending billions and costing thousands their lives. I would not put anything past these creatures.
You know, when discussing 9/11, and having researched it quite well, there are just too many coincidences that took place for this thing to be on the up and up. My only question is how complicent are these people. To what extent did they allow the events to unfold? To what extent was intelligence ignored? To what extent was law enforcement told to back-off? To what extent was the military manipulated to be placed off guard? They are questions that need to be answered IMO. If there was any hint of negligence on the part of the government, that needs to come out. There is more than enough circumstantial evidence to demand an enquiry. This admission just adds fuel to the fire IMO.
