Anyway, I think it is really difficult to see how the U.S. government
would have had a motive to carry out the 9/11 attacks? To justify the wars
on Iraq and Afghanistan? Unlikely. Weren't the Vietnam and Spanish
American wars justified on the pretext of someone attacking ships outside
of U.S. borders? Why couldn't they have staged somehting like that rather
than blow up the WTC? They probably could have justified those wars if
they planted a bomb in the statue of liberty with 50 people in it.
