One of the most common tactics utilized by conspiracy theorists when making their case for this or any other grand conspiracy theory is diversion. For example, NOBODY claims that the steel of the WTC melted. However, page after page of their websites are dedicated to "FIRE CANNOT MELT STEEL! IT'S ALL A SHAM!" Or the classic "no steel building in history has collapsed due to fire" argument, which conveniently ignores the fact no steel building in history has been struck by a 747 traveling at 500 MPH, either. Yet these types of tactics easily convince people like Round who already WANT to believe that there must be an alternative reason for such a tragic event.
