The area is always swarming with media and press outlets because this is the nation's capital. As we know DC politics always attracts huge media attention. All the major media outlets have offices in the area. Not one of the hundreds of reporters in the area bothered to pull out a camera when they heard the deafening roar of a 757 airliner flying unusually low and fast overhead? The noise and racket produced was heard for miles round. That's amazing.

The oddest thing to me about 9/11 is not the Pentagon attack but the collapse of Building 7-it defies the laws of physics and is not adequately mentioned in the commission report.

As far as conspiracies that are true-the CIA "cooperating" (aka funding and supporting) the global drug trade and various terrorists, er I mean rebel, groups. The War on "Terror" and The War on "Drugs" are both lies meant to restrict rights at home and achieve geopolitical goals abroad-endless war under the guise of morality and safety.

Building 7 is the biggest smoking gun of all.
The way it came down was a classic controlled demolition, and it was not hit by any aircraft.

The way the perps likely planned it, Building 7 was supposed to come down at the same time as the Twin Towers. That way the collapse of 7 would be masked by the massive dust clouds of smoke created by the North and South towers coming down. But there was a technical problem and Building 7 did not come down according to plan. So they had to implode it hours after the destruction of the main towers. But by that time the dust clouds were gone and there was nothing to hide it. Obviously they did not intend for the world to see the actual collapse of Building 7.

Ehm - that's absence of evidence, not evidence.

That's the problem. Not saying some type of aircraft didn't hit the Pentagon, just that the available evidence of what exactly it was seems very scant. Doesn't help ease suspicions when the Bush government waited five years to release a grainy video of the event that doesn't show much, and only after a private third party filed a lawsuit to force them to release it. Gave them plenty of time to mess with it.

When I hear the really crazy conspiracy theories like 911, faked moon landings, etc., I have to wonder what the real motivation is behind the folks that think them up?

Did you read my earlier post?
In 1932, Pierre Weltmer wrote in the Weltmer Journals that the US was studying space travel at Roswell, N.M. That was 15 years before the "crash at Roswell". Coincidence?

100+ interviewees describing a plane. Nobody describing a missile.

Ever been on the ground during a high-speed, low flyover? If your camera isn't in your hands, you'll miss the shot. And this was in the days before smartphones became ubiquitous. Even security cameras were way more expensive and so considerably more rare.

It's a specious argument - "Why isn't there this one piece of evidence that would have settled the issue for me?" Well, people were rather busy and nobody thought of proving what they did for posterity. I've had lunar landing deniers state the same essential argument - why didn't anyone take this specific photo or provide that data set or carry out this here experiment? Because they had better things to do.
