I never said I thought I knew what the trails were, just that it appears that there is a difference between con-trails and other trails, and that I wished I could get a solid answer somewhere. Look at all the different, yet definitive answers members here have given.
And if the last administration lied about WMDs as a reason for war, that means that the real reason was something different. That by definition is a conspiracy. So anyone who doesn't believe that that is the reason, and who has ideas about what the real reason might have been, has conspiracy theories. If it was based on a lie, then at least one of the theories is likely to be true. But it would be hard to prove without the administration coming out and admitting the real reason. I never wore a foil hat nor was I ever worried that aliens might get me when I spent time in the desert or in rural areas, but I try to stay open minded to possibilities other than what I hear on Fox news or CNN, and if something might be happening that could potentially effect me I don't trust anyone other than myself to look into it.
I have the same open mindedness with religion. I was raised Christian, and I still have Christian faith, but I call myself an agnostic Christian, never pretending that I know that there is one correct religion or that I know any more than anyone else. It's surprising how much knowledge (and B.S.) can be gained by being a little open minded and satisfying your own curiosity instead of taking someone else' word for things.
