In the days leading up to the 9-11 attacks, a record number of stocks, hundreds of millions of dollars worth, from the companies that would be devastated on September 11, such as United and American airlines, were sold off. A jump in UAL put options were 90 times (not 90 percent) above normal between Sept. 6 and Sept.10, and 285 times higher than average on the Thursday before the attack. A jump in American Airlines put options 60 times (not 60 percent) above normal on the day before the attacks. No similar trading occurred on any other airlines. This was a big news story for a couple of days after 9-11, but it suddenly and mysteriously disappeared. ABC World News reported on Sept. 20, 2001 "Jonathan Winer, an ABC News consultant said, 'it's absolutely unprecedented to see cases of insider trading covering the entire world from Japan, to the U.S., to North America, to Europe." How much money was involved? Andreas von Bulow, a former member of the German Parliament responsible for oversight of Germany's intelligence services estimated the worldwide amount at $15 billion. Not a single U.S. or foreign investigative agency has announced any arrests or developments in the investigation of these trades, the most telling evidence of foreknowledge of the attacks. This, in spite of the fact that former Security and Exchange Commission enforcement chief William Moluccas told Bloomberg News that regulators would "certainly be able to track down every trade." They found exactly where the trail was leading, then the story suddenly dropped out of site. They dropped the pursuit of this story for one reason only: BECAUSE IT WOULD LEAD RIGHT TO THE PEOPLE WHO CONTROL THE MEDIA AND THE SHADOW GOVERNMENT! its a conspiracy

Read the 9/11 commission report.
Asking on here will just bring out the nutjobs with wild conspiracy theories that depend on fictitious data from websites and blogs.
The short answer is that Osama bin Ladin opposes U.S. support for the current government of Saudi Arabia, and their support for U.S. troops stationed in the region during and after the first Gulf War.
Al-Qaida, which he founded, had previously launched attacks against U.S. targets starting with the first World Trade center bombing in 1993. Attacks were also carried out on U.S.targets abroad. These included the bombings of two U.S. embassies in Africa that were carried by Iraqi trained Al-Qaida members.
Between the first attack in 1993 and 2001 over a dozen attacks were launched without any serious U.S. response.
After 9/11 the U.S. took action to eliminate the Al-Qaida training bases in Afghanistan, were the 9/11 hijackers were trained, and Iraq, were many of the operations in the 1990's were based.
Bin Ladin had promised at the time of the 9/11 attack that it was just the first of a wave of much larger attacks that were going to follow at the rate of several per month.
After the U.S. and it's allies began opperations to elliminate Al Qaida cells following 9/11 over 500 such cells were uncovered and eliminated.
While a few cells managed attacks in other countries before being discovered no attacks on U.S. targets were successfully launched after 9/11.
Besides the 9/11 commision report on the attack itself, a good general, (and more readable) source of information on terrorism and anti-terrorist efforts is Shadow War by Richard Miniter.

This is the dumbest question that I have ever seen here, including all of the Jonas brothers and whose prettier ones. I doubt the terrorists are like "Dude, man I think we should only attack the west that we hate so much if a republican wins" "yeah man thats the plan, that'd be sweet" Are you serious? Do some research. FDR was a democrat and he was president during Pearl Harbor so I'd say all parties are equal as far as protections go. If Obama wins it's not like they'd have to sneak in, they can just go hang out with their antiAmerican buddy who refuses to say the pledge, wear the flag and say "God Damn AMerica" yeah thats a quote.

Because America has taken God out of their lives, schools,

Satan has taken over their hearts and hate rules.
