I posted this comment on another thread but I am looking for some good answers.

According to many Arabs on the street, it wasn't Osama that did it but the Jews that destroyed the World Trade Center. Many believe this vehemently, that it was a Jewish plot to villify Muslims. I am wondering, how are they going to spin this in the Arab countries, now these tapes are being released? (And you notice, they weren't released while the debate was going on there)

The hearalded "Arab Street" is more a threat to the local dictatorship than it is to western civilization. Second, since the majority of the suicide hijackers were Saudi citizens, it's a pretty difficult case to make that Israel was behind the 9/11 attacks unless, of course, the case was presented before Judge Ito. Last, as for the "spin" in Arab counties, the consulting firm of Carville, Begalla, and Atta has been hired by al-Jazerra to help shape the Islamist talking points.

Read post #8.

That's another reason why "producing evidence" is useless, because, no matter what you show them, they will never believe it.
