#1 "Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the mastermind of the September 11 attacks, had already set in motion a plan to have terrorist operatives hijack an airplane using shoe bombs to breach the cockpit door and fly the plane into the tallest building on the West Coast," Bush said.

Now, that's a really interesting statement. The flight 93 hijackers claimed to have a bomb on board. And the circumstances of that crash are slightly intriguing. I'm thinking here of the 911 call from the fellow who locked himself in the bathroom. The 911 operator heard an explosion and a whooshing sound right before the call disconnected, and the operator was promptly told by the FBI to shut up.

In addition, there are a great many folks (mostly moonbats, I know) who don't believe that the flights and subsequent fires were enough to bring the towers down. The fireballs accomponying the crashes were certainly pretty impressive -- more than one might expect from aviation fuel. If the attacks were supplemented with explosives on the aircraft, it may explain the fireball and the great structural damage done to the towers. It wouldn't have to be all shoebombs, either. A few suitcases added by al Qaeda/Iraqi/whoever baggage handlers would do the trick. Remember the oddity of Atta's baggage? Remember Hussain al-Hussaini went from Oklahoma City to employment at Logan?
