Ernie addresses this point:

"The chief argument against conspiracy theories is always that it would 
take too many people in on it, and somebody's sure to squeal. But look 
at the U.S. security apparatus, these guys are WASPs, Mormons, Skull and 
bones, secretive by nature. Trained, sometimes since birth, never to run 
  off at the mouth. If discipline exists anywhere, it's among them. So 
of course it's possible." BE, 325.

I don't buy this. There are not that many people ruthless enough to 
commit a crime like that IMO, Skull and Bones or not. For controlled 
demolition, furthermore, you would need "mechanics" -- demolition 
experts and the persons actually placing explosives.
