I thought he was talking about the Hijacker themselves, lol. Which Erik, btw, as you seem to have got all this figured out. Perhaps you should look at the flight manifests released by the airlines. Which if the official theory is to be believed, that 19 hijackers checked in as normal passengers. Yet, strangely their names don't all appear in the passenger lists. This is just one of many very strange things that to this day remain un-explained.

who says it does? I'm getting quite frustrated just listening to you continue to label everyone as a conspiracy theorists. By definition the official story is the biggest theory of all:
Just listen to it, 19 young muslims led by a tall man in a cave learn to fly air liners. All of them successfully go undetected by the intelligence agencies and on the 11th september hijack 4 air liners using plastic knifes and box cutters. These hijackers then proceed to fly around the United States for a couple hours without so much as a wiff of fighter jets or anyone else trying to stop them. The hijackers then proceed to hit 3 of their 4 targets, one of which is the pentagon which resides in restricted air space and is one of the most heavily protected buildings in the country. The others are the towers of the WTC, which both collpase to the ground within minutes of each other.
That's what I call a cracking conspiracy theory. True, it may well turn out to be, but it is still a conspiracy theory.

So explain it? you know if the Report would just explain these things instead of ignoring them then all these so called crazy CTs would go away.
According to French intelligence Bin Laden was met by the CIA at an American hospital in Dubai 2 months before the attacks. At which time he was wanted for various other terrorist crimes.

Yet another un-explained, un-questioned incident. As is the fact that Bush senior on 9-11 was meeting Bin Laden's brother at a washington hotel for a Carlyle Group conference (reported on CBC and the london observer).
Now, I am not providing an alternative explantion or conspiracy theories for these events, but I fail to see how anyone with an ounce of rational thought can not agree that they are rather suspicious events that need to be explained by those involved.

Flight 93 is just one of many mysteries. Do you recall all those phone calls made from flight 93? yet few realise that the technology to make sure phone calls from cell phones was only introduced in 2004.
'September 2004, Last month, Qualcomm Corporation issued a press release stating that they had developed a new technology that would finally make it possible to make cellular phone calls from commercial airliners. Using a technology called "Pico Cells", the system will work as a link between the airliner and ground towers. According to the press release, it is currently impossible to connect by cell phone in a plane that is above 4,000 feet'
According to the FAA, Flight 93 never flew below 29,000 feet, until it went into a deadly spiral. Now, this begs the question, just how did so many people make crystal clear phone calls to their loved ones when no such technology was in place at the time?
Do I have another explanation, no I do not. But again, very strange and needs explaining.
