I would really like this thread, but with JFK.

The other, related issue with events like 9/11 and trying to figure out who "did" them is there are many fine gradations of where culpability is and what that means, so without definitive smoking guns you usually just end up arguing past people who have a different headcanon of implied events than you do. It's maddening but also still probably worthwhile to work through on some level. In a sense, yes, there's no arguing the US government did 9/11 even with the evidence base of the most patriotic neocons, but it requires a different mental model of how politics and society works to understand it that way.

Edgar Allen Ho posted:9/11 as an inside job to invade Iraq is really gold when there was, in fact, a whole bullshit conspiracy casus belli made up anyway. For what it's worth, the hysteria about WMDs in the leadup to Iraq was no doubt augmented, if not directly by 9/11, then by the anthrax attacks that took place in its immediate aftermath. the threat of anthrax was arguably just as large as 9/11 itself in the minds of americans at the time
