how many americans actually believe that 9/11 was a conspiracy to start a war?

Answer 1

I do.
Just the same way as I believe about Armstrong's moon landing. Those "moon" rocks showcased to the world were from Mt. Fujiyama.

Answer 2

I don't believe that 9/11 was an intentional act to lead America to war...at least not by Americans. Its not a stretch to say that it was the intention of the terrorists to commit those acts in order to draw American troops into a war on terror. And if that was the case, the US certainly played right into their hands...didn't they?

Those that discuss the events of 9/11 as a conspiracy lose credibility because they make conclusions about intent. There have been many compelling demonstrations about the implausibility of the towers falling on their own and other events that day...but they are all clouded by the craziness of the conspiracy. It would be much more beneficial for their cause if they continued showing the factual and logical arguments about the implausibilities of the towers coming down as they had...and leave the conspiracy parts out of it. Thats where they lose people...they take it too far.

Answer 3

Whether many of you want to admit it or not nearly 1/2 of the citizens of the U.S. believe 9/11 was perpetrated by our own government!

Answer 4

I do. Israel has wanted the USA to invade the Middle East for decades. They finally got their wish when the CIA and the Israeli Mossad pulled off 9-11. It is sickening, but its true.

Answer 5

Who knows?
This is the zillionith question about a 9/11 conspiracy on Yahoo! answers.

Do a search and see?

Answer 6

Too many.

There was no 9/11 conspiracy.

Answer 7

At least 30% of Americans, and about 50% of New Yorkers.

70% of Americans believe that the government is hiding something (i.e., lying) about the events surrounding 9/11.
.......

Answer 8

I think Bush used 9/11 as an excuse to invade Iraq stating Sadaam Hussein was harboring and supporting the terrorists involved and that Iraq had WMDs, now proven falsehoods.

Louis Freeh – Director of the FBI, 1993 - 2001. Former U.S. District Court Judge for the Southern District of New York, appointed by President George H.W. Bush. Former Deputy United States Attorney in New York. Former FBI agent. Former officer in the United States Army JAG Corps Reserve.

Essay An Incomplete Investigation - Why did the 9/11 Commission ignore "Able Danger"? Wall Street Journal 11/17/05: "Even the most junior investigator would immediately know that the name and photo ID of Atta in 2000 is precisely the kind of tactical intelligence the FBI has many times employed to prevent attacks and arrest terrorists. Yet the 9/11 Commission inexplicably concluded that it "was not historically significant." This astounding conclusion--in combination with the failure to investigate Able Danger and incorporate it into its findings--raises serious challenges to the commission's credibility and, if the facts prove out, might just render the commission historically insignificant itself. … No wonder the 9/11 families were outraged by these revelations and called for a "new" commission to investigate." http://www.opin


Interview Lou Dobbs Tonight 11/30/05: Regarding the Able Danger anti-terrorism data mining program.

Lou Dobbs: Why is there this reaction to what is called by more than half of our congressmen and women, to open up and to allow our elected representatives to know what happened?

Louis Freeh: Well, it's a great question. I mean, the issue here, which was the issue when the 9/11 commission first responded to this, is they obviously missed something. They obviously didn't consider what at least is a very important allegation.

Their response to it, it was historically insignificant. Historically insignificant that an intelligence unit may have identified by name and photo, Mohamed Atta a year before the 9/11 hijackings as a member of al Qaeda in the United States.

Lou Dobbs: Tim Roemer, Slade Gorton, other members of the 9/11 commission have said they just had no hard evidence to deal with here. How do you respond?

Louis Freeh: I disagree with that. I was a prosecutor and an FBI agent for many, many years. I deal in facts. You have two witnesses. You have United States Naval Academy graduate, Captain Philpot, you have Lieutenant Colonel Shaffer, an army intelligence officer. These aren't data loaders, these are intelligence experts who both have said, unequivocally, this unit identified Mohammed Atta by name and possibly photo in mid 2000.

To say that they don't have any documents to prove their case, these aren't informants that we have to verify their credibility. We have testimonial evidence, which, as a prosecutor, that's more potent sometimes than documentary evidence.

Lou Dobbs: You were director of the FBI until June of 2001. Were you ever aware of Able Danger? Was the FBI ever given any reason to sense that there was some military intelligence or military intelligence evidence or suggestion that there would be an attack or some relationship to Mohamed Atta?

Louis Freeh: Absolutely not. Myself, but also my former colleagues and current FBI colleagues, we read about this in the newspapers in August of this year. And what is very significant here Lou -- which is a point that has been made, and which I think you made -- we had officers at Able Danger who made appointments, actually made appointments to go to the FBI and share this intelligence in 2000 and those appointments were canceled.

It had to be a very powerful stimulus, this intelligence and information, to make these officers want to really breach the chain of command and go directly to the FBI. We'd like to know why those appointments were canceled." http://transcripts.cnn.com


Editor's note: The 9/11 Commission Report asserts that only three of the alleged hijackers were known to U.S. intelligence agencies prior to 9/11; Nawaf al-Hazmi, Salem al-Hazmi, and Khalid al-Mihdar. There is no mention in the Report that the names and photographs of alleged hijacker Marwan al-Shehhi and alleged ring-leader Mohamed Atta had been identified by the Department of Defense antiterrorist program known as Able Danger more than a year prior to 9/11 and that they were known to be affiliates of al-Qaida. Able Danger also identified Nawaf al-Hazmi and Khalid al-Mihdar. http://www.foxnews.com. See also Rep. Curt Weldon, Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer, Capt. Scott J. Phillpott, Major Erik Kleinsmith, and James D. Smith.
