And what about the third option, will? That of simplicity?

If I were to witness via explosion (or the sound of such) the destruction of the top levels of a skyscraper, I would assume it was a plane. In Modern America, it is much more likely to see a plane in the air than a ground launched missile or satellite targeted laser system (as some would claim).

It's a safe assumption to believe that MOST Americans would connect the only human-made flying things they've seen with the destruction of something far into the air.

If I would assume that, surely she could. And if she is, then neither collusion nor "sitting on it" by the media would be necessary.
