The Volokh Conspiracy - Will They Believe Bin Laden?:

According to this site, 26% of Palestinians believe that Israel was behind the 9/11 attacks. The theory, apparently not uncommon in the Arab world, is that Israel attacked New York and DC to trick the United States: they wanted the U.S. to think that it was Osama bin Laden in order to trigger a backlash against him that would help Israel.

According to news reports, the new tape of bin Laden includes a section where he admits his responsibility for the 9/11 attacks. Al Jazeera quotes bin Laden as saying, "We decided to destroy [the] towers in America." I wonder, will the conspiracy theorists claim that bin Laden is lying? Or will they just say that the man in the tape isn't bin Laden?
