Do you think 9/11 was a conspiracy?

Question

I think it was brainwashed terrorists who hated the U.S. and they thought they were doing something good. Is the Bush administration really smart enough to pull something off like that? Are they that corrupt they would plan to kill their own citizens. I don't think they are. Certainly not Bush, anyway. What do you think?

Answer 1

9/11 was not a "conspiracy" of the US govt.

In terms of Bush knowing it ahead of time:

I haven't seen any proof that he knew about the attack ahead of time.

Proof would be: Well-documented warnings of an Al Qaeda attack & such warnings would have to be more believable than the hundreds of such warnings that come in every month.

Answer 2

The truth is, both sides of this argument are wrong.

The American president on which you blame everything is doing his job perfectly - GIVING YOU SOMEONE TO BLAME. The "realists" who are so intent on calling the "conspiracy theorists" crackpots are no better than the theorists who are so eager to blame "da guv'ment" for hiding their knowledge of this tragedy. Both of you are slurping up what you're being fed, thinking you attached to some form of "the truth."

The powers behind the Twin Towers attack, the forces that put it in motion, and the motives for which it was done are far above and beyond any government. Bush and the American government are just pawns in this.

This was done to create a war on terrorism, to give the American people someone to hate, to give the Middle East even more reason to hate America. It was done to set a world crisis in motion, and it is just getting warmed up.

Look around you. You now freely give up even more rights under the guise of "Homeland Security." The answers are out there, you've just been trained to ignore them.

So yeah, call me a conspiracy theory crackpot too. Both who argue either side are blind to the big picture, and you are playing right into their hands - while you're so busy blaming someone and arguing the point, the world is moving to a very scary place.

Who's really behind it?

Think about the concept of ULTIMATE POWER. What is it, really, on a world wide scale?
Who controls the resources?
Who controls the food?
The communications?

Who can strangle any country, any time, by just turning off the faucet through which any of these flow?

Answer 3

I think to pull off something that big.. you would have had to have the cooperation of THOUSANDS of people. Faking a plane crash in front of what.... millions of New Yorkers watching in broad daylight? So you can start a war? All while killing American citizens? And blowing up buildings?
Bush cant even keep secret the locations of Top Terrorist suspects long without someone crawling up his *** with a microscope and whining about how they are treated...
What makes you think the THOUSANDS of accomplices he had to of had that day to pull off a conspiracy would all keep quiet as well?
I think people who believe in a 9/11 conspiracy are not only nuts...but they hate Bush or America so much, that they would buy into some crap like that just to promote an agenda that makes him and our country look evil.
Besides, Bush isnt even smart enough to secure our own border let alone pull off a conspiracy as massive as the one that would have had to been done on 9/11~!!

Answer 4

I wonder, has anyone ever thought about what possible benefit there could possibly have been for any American politician or business man to commit such heinous acts against their own countrymen? Then, if any President would go that far don't you think he would most likely, keep going and have all who dare oppose him arrested and convicted of treason or sedition? A conspiracy of this magnitude would be an enormous risk. What payoff would be worth such a risk?

No, this was not anything else except what our Fascist Muslim enemies are capable of if you allow them to operate unfettered.

I personally believe Bill Clinton's administration has far more responsibility by failing to react when Bin Ladin was being handed over twice and was located a third time. But even that to me seems more like incompetence than any conspiracy.

Answer 5

Look, if more than person is involved, IT IS, BY DEFINITION, A CONSPIRACY.

Could these Arabs have hijacked the airplanes and flown them ito the WTC and the Pentagon if Bush had been on the job instead of on vacation in Texas? We'll never know, because Bush was too scared to speak to the 9/11 Commission under oath. He would only talk to them "off the record" with Dickless Cheney holding his, well, I HOPE his hand during it. Since it was "Off the record" we still do not know what Bush did, if anything, to prevent the attacks. He had plenty of warnings, including a report entitled "Bin Laden Determined to Attack Within the United States". He had reports from the FBI about al Qaida operatives learning to fly aircraft, but who seemingly had little interest in learning how to take off or land those aircraft. He also had history to rely on. Clinton's staff repeatedly tried to get Bush and HIS staff to take the terror threat seriously. He wouldn't.

Then, during the attacks, he SAT THERE for over SEVEN MINUTES after being told, "Mr. President, America is under attack".

His response? He talked about how he watched the first plane hit the first tower, and said in response, "Wow, that's one terrible pilot" (a real grasp of the situation, not once saying a thing about the dead or dying people WITHIN the tower and the aircraft) and, rather than cancel his photo opportunity at the school, he decided to go ahead, never once explaining how he saw the first plane hit the tower when NO VIDEO of the actual impact had been filmed as far as anyone knew at that point.

How smart did he have to BE to just ignore the warnings?

Answer 6

Sound like a Bush hater, they were psycho brain washed Radical Islamist Terrorists, no conspiracy by the government.

Bush has been smart enough tgo prevent further attacks on the U.S. Lets hope the next Commander In Chief can do the same.

Answer 7

It was a terrorist plot concocted by Bin Laden and his cohorts in Al Queda. Nothing more, nothing less. No government conspiracy either foreign or domestic.

Answer 8

I do not like the Bush administration...

But I do not think this was a conspiracy.

Answer 9

Behind the 9/11 attacks were real terrorists. But Bush knew about the attacks and did nothing about that. Reason? War in Iraq, Afganistan and then Iran. 3000 lives in nothing in comparison with oil and the "future" of the US.

Maybe he was right. I do not know.
