It's just less scary to believe that some mysterious Illuminati chock-full of white guys killed a bunch of white-collar workers for their own mysterious reasons, than that some "ragheads" with box cutters were able to defeat all their safeguards.
The whole idea - and result - was to make everyone afraid of "ragheads." I think it's far scarier - not less scary - to look at the possible reasons why this would have been engineered, or at least aided, by a bunch of white guys.
