yeah, its a 1-2 punch of logical fallacies i find very common among pseudoscience proponents (9/11 CTs, moon hoax, creation, etc)It appears that since he has decided that it was impossible for the building to fall the way many experts say it did, it doesn't matter how 'They' managed to wire the building--they just must have been able to pull it off in secret, period.
This is such a common tactic, a kind of woo woo circuit breaker logic that makes it impossible to 'win' a debate with them, at least in their minds. To me it sits at the core of many truther's cognitive problems.
It's useless bothering with minor details like how the charges were set surreptitiously; they just were.
argument from incredulity+false dichotomy, usually amounting to "it couldnt have happened your way, so it must have been my way"
