I would like to discuss what I would call "benign conspiracies" about 9/11. These are basically secret evil government plots, without the "evil" part.
You've seen them. You've seen Truthers claim that WTC7 was demolished for safety reasons--to prevent a much more uncontrolled and dangerous collapse. You've seen Truthers claim that Flight 93 was shot down because the government knew it had been hijacked and knew that it was headed for another major building if they didn't stop it.
Yes, the government had secret plots, but they were good rather than evil. They had pure and benevolent motives for doing what they did. We all would've done the same thing were we in their position.
That just leaves one point of confusion: the "secret" part. Now I can't for the life of me figure out why, if you really did all of the right things for all of the right reasons, you would go to all the trouble to cover it up.
What are some possible explanations for why the government would cover up these "benign conspiracies"?
