Unfortunately, the 9/11 Conspiracy crowd is going to take that as a victory, people reading this thread and going to think you have a weak case and more harm will be done than good.

From my experience, the best thing one can do is simply do a little research and refute one's claim with readily available evidence. That way, you don't have to rely on emotion, the 9/11 conspiracy theorist looks like a moron and everyone learns a little something.

Perhaps we just have different approaches.
No

According to conspiracy thinking, the lack of anything can raise questions that have sinister implications.

All of it comes back to blaming Americans for 9/11 and exonerating the terrorists. That is where they ALL lead to. I will have no part in it.

Whether you do battle or reason and argue with them is obviously your own choice. I will not.

"He who lies down with anti-American dogs gets up with conspiratorial fleas" or words to that effect.
