I’ve never considered myself a conspiracy theorist but I just can’t fathom anyone being as dumb as our would-be bomber is alleged to be.

It seems both WTC bombings were carried out by very professional, capable terrorists. Ever since then (in the U.S) the terror has been a string of bumbling failed shoe bombers, etc. and now this. I’m starting to wonder how many of the foiled attacks are just an effort to take public focus off other issues.

The timing and absurd nature of this guy’s non plan is astounding. Is it a coincidence this happened immediately after the unprecedented oil spill? How is it we know so much about this guy’s motivation if there is a criminal investigation going on? Probably this guy really is that dumb, but I’m not 100% excluding the possibility of a government con job here.

Full disclosure: I don’t believe the “fat finger” cover story for today’s stock market panic. That was obviously floated to con the public, is absurd on its face, and doesn’t account for the snap back at 1000 down or stress leading up to the event in other financial markets. It is becoming increasingly difficult for me to recognize government/media collusion and B.S. in finances and economics without questioning government/media stories in other areas.

Instant answers in our age of instant information should be considered suspect. We know too much too quickly for my comfort here.
