Most 9/11 conspiracy theories generally originate from dissatisfaction with the mainstream account of 9/11.The weakest form
of the theory is that incompetence or negligence from U.S. personnel was covered up by the official reports[citation needed].
Additionally, some claim that the involvement of a foreign government or organization, other than al-Qaeda, has been covered
up. The most prevalent theories can be broadly divided into two main forms:
* LIHOP ("let it happen on purpose") - suggests that key individuals within the government had at least
some foreknowledge of the attacks and deliberately ignored them or actively weakened America's defenses to ensure the hijacked
flights were not intercepted.
* MIHOP ("made it happen on purpose") - that key individuals within the government planned the attacks,
collaborated with, or framed al-Qaeda in carrying them out. There is a range of opinions about how this might have been achieved.
