why do you believe that the US gov't was NOT behind 9/11?

if you believe that the twin towers and building 7 of the WTC were brought down due to the attacks and not controlled demolition from the government, why? why do you believe that the government had absolutely nothing to do with any of it and that they had no knowledge what-so-ever of the attacks? i'm just trying to get information from both sides of the argument. i'm not looking for reasons why you think the government WAS behind it, i already have all those facts. i'm looking for why people truly think it was a terrorists attack.

Update:

i'm simply asking for evidence that the government didn't do it, i don't necessarily believe that they did or didn't do it at this point because i don't have all the goddamn facts

    If you look up "Aliens and 9/11" you'll find links that say it was aliens also.In fact soon after 9/11 happened Art Bell(On his radio show) had experts on that said it was aliens.

    Controlled demolitions leave nothing of the building.When the towers came down there were still parts intact.Look at photos you see.

    Besides how did the Government hire Ninja Demolitions experts to plant the said explosives?

    Nice try kid come back later......

    I believe the U.S. Government was not involved in either a MIHOP or LIHOP scenario for one simple reason:

    Over the last 11 years in spite of a lot of noise no one has produced anything like a prima facia case implicating the U.S. government for any such role in the attacks. Lots of accusations all very, very short on evidence at the very least or relying on outright fabrications at their worst.

    Asking for evidence that the government didn't do it though is the wrong approach. It is like asking someone to prove Unicorns don't exist. You can not prove a negative.

    In science the accepted hypothesis becomes the one that best explains all of the available evidence with the least number of un-supported assumptions. In the case of 9/11 the best hypothesis presented to date by a wide margin is that of terrorists hijacking 4 aircraft and flying them into buildings. It explains everything in great detail supported by mountains of evidence.

    Ok I'll bite.

    1. No reports of unusual activity/workers in either of the buildings before the buildings collapsed. Would have been scores of workers going up and down stair wells etc.

    2. No reports of hundreds of holes in the walls needed to place the explosives, would be impossible to miss.

    3. No reports of the miles of wiring that would have had to be in place to detonate the tons of explosives that would have been needed to bring down the buildings.

    4. The work of preparing these buildings for a controlled demolition would have taken weeks if not a few months and would have required scores of workers. Odds are great that one of them would have spilled the beans by now if the conspiracy theorists were correct.

    Because I understand some very basic principles of physics (that I learned in middle-school). And I have a brain.

    Every single "fact" that truthers trot out has been thoroughly debunked a thousand times over. It's not my fault people are too stupid to understand simple explanations.

    Theory is not proven fact. There is no hard proof that the govt. was behind 9/11.

    Prove to me - conclusively - that you are not a government operative, sent out to discredit the 9/11 conspiracy theory. I want proof that you are NOT. NOW!

    Because the facts speak for themselves:

    You're lucky to get this. When outlandish claims are made, the burden of proof is on the claimant. And that burden still sits heavily.
