"Conspiracy Theorists Suggest That 9/11 Was an Inside Government Job

Question 37

Multiple Choice

"Conspiracy theorists suggest that 9/11 was an inside government job. The government secretly landed those planes, took off all the passengers, and then hid the planes. Then they took remote-controlled planes and flew those planes into the towers. But days before, they had managed to sneak in explosives into the towers, without anyone seeing, and then performed a controlled detonation on the buildings after the remote-controlled planes hit the towers. And, even though thousands of people would've had to have been involved in the conspiracy to pull this off, they all kept quiet and didn't object. Given the track record of the federal government, that sounds like a plausible scenario to me." Identify the fallacy that applies to this example.
