Fraidy, can i recommend, if you get a chance, you get hold of the following book:

The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions About the Bush Administration and 9/11

It's a very interesting read, it's not so much a simple conspiracy book, but it does ask some interesting questions. It's not a 'ram it down you throat' and 'its all a big set up' book it uses a lot of the conclusions of the official investigations and then asks if those conclusions are correct.

I really do think it's worth a read
