Creative Speculation

... because there's no such thing as silent explosives. Even if you can get past the ludicrously implausible supposition that someone would plan such pointlessly complicated and unnecessarily risky hoax (when something much, much easier and safer would accomplish the same presumed purpose), and the even more implausible notion that they managed somehow to pull it off without getting caught, leaving no evidence whatsoever and no whistleblowers among the vast number of people who would need to be involved, WTC controlled demolition theories require an extraordinary cognitive dissonance: "Truthers" believe that the buildings were so strong that that a 150-ton plane moving 500+ MPH couldn't bring them down, nor could the entire top of the building falling, and yet they believe the massive columns were severed by explosive charges so small that we can't hear them on any of the videos -- unlike virtually every CD video on YouTube, even though the WTC buildings would have required more and larger charges than any of those buildings. In fact, calling such anti-reality nonsense a "theory" is a gross exaggeration.

It may not be the most idiotic conspiracy theory ever invented (I think that's a tie between the Pentagon 9/11 "flyover" theory and the moon-landing "hoax&quot , but it's certainly in the top ten.
