Sure.
Well, no. I wasn't prone to speculating that something other than what appeared to happen (a terrorist plot unfolding against our nation) was another thing absent reason to believe it. Like many Americans, I wanted to know the particulars and when a lot of speculative conversation about that started bubbling up I noted a number of reasonable voices trained in areas directly addressing the speculation set out rational support for the narrative that best met the facts as I'd seen them and rebutted the attempts to make something other from them. One of the best came from MIT educated engineers, but there were all sorts of voices rejecting the paranoid narrative of conspiracy theorists, from Popular Mechanics to the NIST examination of the facts.
Millions of people believed the Bakers were God centered bearers of the good news.
In 2013 Public Policy Polling asked Americans about a number of conspiracy theories and other odd notions.
14% of voters believed in Big Foot.
21% believed a UFO crashed in Roswell.
15% believed the government and/or media puts mind control technology in broadcast signals.
In case you're wondering, that's millions of people per crazy response. We're a country with large populations of very gullible people who appear to want to believe they're in on something secret and dire. Any number of understandable reasons why that's the case.
Nah. There's nothing inconsistent with the facts that support what we saw was what happened.
There's nothing to "solve" unless you don't understand what happened.
For instance, take one of the assertions about "squibs" relating to the towers.
"
Once each tower began to collapse, the weight of all the floors above the collapsed zone bore down with pulverizing force on the highest intact floor. Unable to absorb the massive energy, that floor would fail, transmitting the forces to the floor below, allowing the collapse to progress downward through the building in a chain reaction. Engineers call the process "pancaking," and it does not require an explosion to begin, according to David Biggs, a structural engineer at Ryan-Biggs Associates and a member of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) team that worked on the FEMA report.
Like all office buildings, the WTC towers contained a huge volume of air. As they pancaked, all that air—along with the concrete and other debris pulverized by the force of the collapse—was ejected with enormous energy. "When you have a significant portion of a floor collapsing, it's going to shoot air and concrete dust out the window," NIST lead investigator Shyam Sunder tells PM. Those clouds of dust may create the impression of a controlled demolition, Sunder adds, "but it is the floor pancaking that leads to that perception." Popular Mechanics, July 31, 2017
