As for Israel I did not say Mossad did the job, simply that they were there, and were celebrating. http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/fiveisraelis.html
I read your link. There was absolutely no substantiation of the claim that Israelis/Mossad agents were high-fiving each other. To come away from that believing that this definitely occurred, requires a leap in faith, pure and simple. By definition, faith in a particular thing is not something shared uniformally, which is why your arguments sometimes fall on deaf ears.
To be sure, there are many, many questions about the official 9/11 story, and I don't for a minute buy the official one. But to replace the original cock-and-bull story with one that requires me to believe that the Bush Administration -- fercryinoutloud -- that showcase of incompetence we all know and love -- managed to pull off the crime of the century in front of everyone, requiring the cooperation of hundreds of people all of whom agreed to attack their own country for a nebulous purpose and then keep quiet about it (unlike every other secret the administration has tried to keep quiet). Compared to that, I'd say the official story is more credible.
Fortunately, I can understand that neither story is apt to be correct.
The important thing in learning the truth is to keep an open mind and look at the research as objectively as possible. Seeing Mossad agents high-fiving each other evidenced in that fact-free "he said/she said" article on WhatReallyHappened is about the same as seeing a missile dropping from the bottom of the 757 just as it crashed. Both are products of a mind that has already reached its conclusion and is creating the pieces to support it.
