Its interesting that everyone ALWAYS assumes that whatever a character says or claims, it must invariably be true. Amon is a master manipulator. Generally that implies telling truths, half-truths, and lies. Its not that he could have lied, but he did it in such a way as to gain as much favor as possible.

Radical? Perhaps, but the evidence is there. Zuko is the only character in the series who had both the access, the resources, the motive, the intent and the opportunity. He helped establish Republic City, all of the technology used by the equalists has Fire Nation roots, and they are all experts in anti-bending warfare.

Does anyone recall the Blue Spirit? Zuko was very adept at disabling other benders with pure martial arts prowess alone, had access to the Chi-Blocking which at the time was exclusively held by the Fire Nation.

Last but not least, it would be great story-telling if Zuko was Amon. If you examine all of the points I've made, then the conclusion becomes clear.
