    only saying that the CIA was definitely involved in radicalizing terror cells & that the FBI ignored warnings is the same cover given & interference run for the Kennedy assassination or for King's assassination or for the release of information about MKUltra etc.

    we know there is foul play & preemptive government knowledge & planning in all of these incidents, but it's always only accidental & almost "circumstantial" that material evidence is ever revealed about these clandestine operations

      Its a lot easier to shoot a man on a balcony and blame it on another man than to fly hijack 4 planes. I don’t believe the US had an “accident” because I believe they let it happen on purpose.

      Also, the CIA isn’t being let off the hook. The CIA, even without 9/11, is a terrorist organization. What are the consequences for leftism if we don’t believe the CIA did 9/11?

        If you believe the US let it happen on purpose, then there really isn't anything logically preventing you from recognizing that complicity & foreknowledge are the same as culpability

          I believe they were complicit and I believe that they are to blame. I don’t believe that they themselves demolished the towers

            If we know there are connections between Bin Laden and the CIA & anti-communist operations with Salafist groups going back to the 1970s, then there are both knowns & unknowns

            it's no mystery that 9/11 was a crisis that wasn't allowed to go to waste. and the larger context of planning to blame Saddam within hours of the attack & subsequent issues with Anthrax etc all point to a larger contingency in place for such events.

            I can't know what I can't know, and neither can anyone else, but that doesn't mean that the explanations given are satisfactory
