36. The silliness of the suggestion, and its huff-n-puff nature, should be apparent:
(1) the man alleges a conspiracy between airline employees, airport officials, Dutch counter-intelligence, and American anti-terrorist specialists;
(2a) if hours of time-stamped video, showing his story false, became available, the expected conspiracy-theory retort will be that the video has been faked and/or edited as part of the alleged conspiracy;
(2b) if video of the ticket desk does not exist, then obviously it cannot be released, and the expected conspiracy-theory retort will be that authorities have destroyed or suppressed the video to continue the alleged conspiracy
(2c) if the Dutch, understandably, do not want to broadcast to the entire world the location of security cameras at Luchthaven Schiphol (and hence do not want to confirm or deny in public the existence of video showing the ticket desk), the expected conspiracy-theory retort will be that authorities have destroyed or suppressed the video to continue the alleged conspiracy;
(3) in conclusion: unless video were released that supported his story, the conspiracy-theorists will continue to howl about the alleged conspiracy
