What actions by the US, if any, prompted Al Queda's 9/11 attack?

Question

Did Bin Laden give any specific details? Was it the cancellation of the Afghan Oil Pipeline 20 days before? US's overbearing culture and world politics? Geroge HW Bush's New World Order Speach on a pervious Sept. 11? Our Infidelity? I would love to hear from muslims, arabs, fundamentalists(Christian, Jewish, or Islamic), but anyone is welcome to answer.

I was hoping to avoid personal attacks. I don't know why, that is why I am asking...hence the ",if any,". GOOD AMERICANS ASK QUESTIONS!

Answer 1

Did you know that?

a. USA supported Bin Laden and the Taliban for years, and viewed them as
freedom fighters against the Russians

b. As late as 1998, the US was paying the salary of every single Taliban
official in Afghanistan

c. There is more oil and gas in the Caspian Sea, but you need a pipeline
through Afghanistan to get that out

d. UNOCAL, a giant oil conglomerate, wanted to build a 1000 mile pipeline
from the Caspian Sea through Afghanistan to the Arabian Sea

e. UNOCAL spend $ 10,000,000,000 on geological studies for the pipeline
construction, and courted the Taliban for their support in allowing the
construction to begin

f. All leading Taliban officials were in Texas negotiating with UNOCAL in
1998

g. In 1999, Taliban changed its mind and threw UNOCAL out of the country
and
awarded the pipeline project to a company in Argentina

h. John Maresca, VP of UNOCAL testified before Congress and said no
pipeline should be set until the Taliban was gone and a more friendly
government was established

i. After 1999, the Taliban became the most evil people in the world

j. In 2001, Bush declares war against Afghanistan, though not a single
Afghani was involved in the plane hijacking

k. Bush blamed Bin Laden, but did not offer any proof, saying it was
confidential

l. Taliban offered to hand over Bin Laden if there was proof, but Bush
bombed Afghanistan instead

m. There's now a new government in Afghanistan, which is friendlier.

n. That the leader of the new government is one gentleman called Hamid
Karzai, who formerly worked for UNOCAL

o. Bush appoints a special envoy (Lakhdar Ibrahimi) to represent the US to
deal with the new government. This special envoy was formerly chief
consultant to UNOCAL

p. The US government quietly announces in January 2002 that it will support

the Trans-Afghan pipeline construction

q. President Musharraf and Hamid Karzai announce agreement in February 2002

to build proposed gas pipeline from Central Asia to Pakistan through
Afghanistan

And you thought U.S.A was fighting terrorism there, didn't you?

It is all about OIL................

Answer 2

It could have been Bin Laden just as it could have been some other person in the middle east or even the KKK. What is not known is motive.

Motive is given many names and because all the reasons put into it, finding the true motivation becomes difficult. Bin Laden could have done it for personal gains since some of his money, or rather, his father's money was frozen by the western states. Nobody really knows for certain.

A guess is that all the galvansing forces of wealth, politics, legal systems, mixed with their own local leaders political ambitions.

Misunderstanding and poor information spread by leaders of their own society generally says all ills do not come from their own. It is the usual pointing the finger at everyone except themselves, like some trade unions and defeatist groups used to do.

US just happens to be the symbol of western politics and the only one that is seen doing the work. It is just like a person who believes in trees that create winds by pointing at the moving branches, and claiming it as the reason winds exist.

Short of anyone owning up and representing the real causes and not the flustered people that we get on media portraying the ideas of another, we need a long list to say who did what to clear the clutter and determine what is relevant.

Answer 3

Nothing, their where 5 attacks agaisnt US interests during the Conton adminsiatration, and theri was no response, so they felt embolden about the resolve of the US Then they feel we are controllled by Isreal or Jews who the hate above all things. And they feel we have prompt of govt in Saudi Arabia, the old Iran (The shah) Iran and Al Qudaa have said many times taht they want Isreal off the face of the map and can imagine a world without jAmerica. This was recently said.

Answer 4

The US has stuck it's nose into other countries problems for way too long. They think they are the worlds superpower, but in reality, they are just another country. Unfortunatly this won't be the last attack.

Watch "9/11 In Plane Site", you can find it on Yahoo! Search or Google Videos. It's a pretty good indication of the truth behind 9/11.

Answer 5

The US and Israel don't stop with terror bombings. Invading other countries illegally, they then continue to intimidate the civilian populations by illegal and unethical searches of peoples' homes, dragging men and sometimes women into the street hooded and trussed up like animals. Nothing can be more humiliating to these people then these intrusive home invasions at all hours of the night where civilians are trussed up and thrown out into the street in full view of the neighbors as a warning to any one who might even express an opinion about the illegal occupation of foreign troops in their own country.

Use of terms by US and Israeli propagandists like "Muslim Terrorists," "Muslim Extremists," and the latest demeaning term by Bush, "Muslim Fascists," is an attempt to taint all of Islamic religion and culture. Bush knows that the vast majority of his constituency in the US only hears the word "Muslim." Contrast that with the number of times we hear terms like "Christian Crusaders," "Christian or Jewish Extremists," "Christian or Jewish Neo-Nazis." These epithets are strictly off limits in the US, no matter how accurate they may be in depicting our government. The anti-Muslim insults are all part of the dehumanization process against people who are not only NOT terrorists or extremists, but defending their countries against illegal invasion and occupation by the Christian/Jewish Axis of Power.

P.S.
Terror bombing, illegal invasion of other countries using trumped up excuses, dehumanization of the enemy as inferior, widespread use of torture; these are exactly the same tactics the Nazis used. But these tactics will NEVER produce either the peace or victory the Axis of Powers claim they want. Remember WWII. The Nazis lost!

Answer 6

the first time al-queda attacked the world trade center was in 1993 usually a terrorists reasons are mearly political and\or of financial reasons what fueled the attack is really quite obvious think about it the "world" trade center was a huge multi-national corporation that was used by people from all over the world..by desrtoying it they knew that a large financial gap would insue they also did because to strike fear into us hence why they are called "terorrists" and as you can see...they show no signs of stopping.

Answer 7

Bin Laden and al - queda was not responsible for 9/11

Answer 8

No offense yet your question is an workout in knee-jerk, reactionary, and simplistic rhetoric. by ability of asking it you're lacking the component to the completed debate over battling terrorism. can we make ourselves safer by ability of putting militia workers in harms way, and in doing so giving the terrorists precisely what they desire? If we had left Saddam in place we does not have maximum of American squaddies and Iraqis lifeless good now. we are battling over oil and the residual corporation it generates, no depend if obliquely, ie: calling it Iraqi Freedom, or calling it capitalism. i think of the appropriate thank you to 'beat' the terrorists is to provide up utilizing as lots oil as we do. If we get to a element in this united states of america--the U. S.--the place we in basic terms use the organic materials (photograph voltaic, wind, and so on) we've interior our borders, we are going to be lots further alongside the line to defeating terrorism than battling them the two in Iraq or right here in the U. S..

Answer 9

Do you honestly believe it was something we did? Could we have done anything that was horrible enough for what he did? No we could not and did not. You however seem to be one of those that thinks this country is always wrong. Do you not understand that they hate this country because we are free. They hate us because we are not Muslim. They hate us because we work hard and are a richer nation for that. In other words they hate. Terrorists do not need a logical reason for what they do. Terrorists only know one emotion and that is hate. God bless the USA.
