Except that America would have done all that anyways without 9/11.
The Project for the New American Century (think tank with a shitload of Bush officials) literally expressed their intent prior to 9/11 and said that it would take time unless there was a new Pearl Harbor - i.e. 9/11 was simply an excuse and they were planning on doing it all regardless, just a bit slower. Plus, with the amount of fucking around America was doing in the middle-east during the 20th century, something like it was bound to happen sooner or later.

feel like you are using the consequences as a way to measure importance 9/11 makes more sense than Iraq
