94. No..
I didn't put words in people's mouths. I merely summarized their arguments, which are easily found in this very thread, as well as dozens of others.

There's no denying that people have used the following arguments to support their conclusion that the US is behind this atrocity:

fat muslims
sneakers
white plastic chairs
gold rings
yellow walls
orange jumpsuit
"western" fidgeting
"western" video format

None of those arguments stand on their own, and therefore, they don't stand as a whole. Alas, people DO argue that they're all "part" of a larger argument. But if an individual item has been shown to be false, it should be discarded. Instead, people use the mere existence of the question as an argument that "there are too many unanswered questions".

I believe there ARE in fact unanswered questions. The ones listed above are not among them.
