Like, oh... I dont know... Jet Fuel???

So, overall, did more people smell cordite, or see a 757 hit the bulding? If not a 757 then a plane of similar size? Why are the people in the building that claimed to smell cordite more reliable than the ones that saw the jet?
I don't think the "WHY" they used cordite is specultion, I think the
presence of cordite is speculation.

If they were confident of pulling off these kinds of stunts back in 1962, they certainly would have been able to conduct similar operations in 2001.

Substituting a plane in flight in 1962 over international waters would be a tad different than doing it over Washington DC in 2001. Would you at least agree to that? How many radar stations monitor air traffic in the Washington area in 2001? How many between Florida and Cuba in 1962? See where there might be a bit of a gap there?

I thought bin Laden was the Evil Overlord(tm) controlling his suicidal minions from his base in the hollow mountain (or cave)?

Yeah, pretty much accepted.

But you still haven't explained what you think was used, other than maybe a bomb or missile or a smaller plane. You still haven't explained how they managed to get all the debris in there without anyone seeing them. You still haven't explained the theory in any sort of specific terms. All that has been done is to cast doubt on the evidence presented so far, the eyewitness acounts that support that evidence, and the official story as a whole. The few bits that you have presented are other sites that have been debated in this thread already.
Personally, I'm not looking for the evidence that proves your theory. I'm looking FOR your theory. If it can stand up with no internal errors, then it might be worth looking for supporting evidence, but by my standards, pulling off a scam like what you describe only to use a substance like cordite that would have absolutely no reason to be there is a pretty big internal error. If they needed a bigger bang than a 757, then why not a
KC-10 refuling plane. It would carry more fuel that would would be expected to be there. It's very close in size. It would look enough like a 757 to fool most of the people that actually saw it.
Why do you feel a 757 would not be controllable near the ground? How do they land? If it's a matter of precision, they were aiming at the building, not the second floor window 15th from the corner on the west side.
If a 757 would not work, and they used another type of airliner, then why not skip AA77 and target a flight that used the plane they had ready?

What
could be evidence against it? if all the reports, witness and evidence that the official story was right, isn't sufficient, surely doing three or four things the no one with an ounce of common sense would ever think would work couldn't be either.
