So I finished watching september - 11 the new pearl harbor (its 5 hours worth watching). My honest takeaway was "was bin laden in on 9-11?". Seems kind of silly to say, we have the writings of bin laden saying why they attacked the towers, we have the al queda declaration of war, yet something doesnt seem right. The movie lays out a compelling enough case that not only was a controlled demolition possible, not only probable, but that it would have been seemingly impossible to have happened any other way.

Bin laden had a lot of creepy family connections that I cant speak much too, and he was trained by the CIA. But theres more, Scott Horton has repeatedly detailed how the US basically let Bin Laden escape to Pakistan, and how the Taliban was ready to give up Bin Laden and help combat Al Queda, the natural conclusion I originally came to was they wanted a war in Afghanistan for other purposes; what if its deeper than that?

Maybe, its a thought, Bin Laden was our asset and on board with the CIA to carry out 9-11, and we let him escape because his survival justified the war. At some point he became politically inconvenient so we had him killed to tie up loose ends.
