Think about the amount of HE required to demolish TWO skyscrapers that large. That would require a massive amount of analysis & planning so a large group of people would have to be involved (making it less likely that a secret that heinous could be kept), the buildings would have to be honeycombed with HE, detonators & wires running everywhere, and then all that would have to be coordinated with multiple independent groups of foreign terrorists simultaneously hijacking planes and flying them into separate targets. All without anyone else in the government or who worked in the buildings noticing any of these preparations. I mean come on. That is some seriously X-Files shit, dude. Is the smoking man behind all of it?

Exactly.
