The Worst Attack on US Soil on September 11th 2001, What lessons have We learned?!

[media=https://youtu.be/0o4xKmu4g3k?si=YirI8DdNbSFF2Cvu]

In the aftermath of the US withdrawal from Afghanistan, the Oligarchs ignore the most important factor of the Graveyard of Empires aka Afghanistan: What's the Truth about the Real motivation of Terrorists to commit the 9/11 Attacks?! Authors Chalmers Johnson and Thomas Pape wrote about this instinctively. Ron and Rand Paul, Walter Jones, Jim Duncan, Dennis Kucinich, Thomas Massie also understood and studied these facts.

The American Public, Taxpayers, and Consumers bought into the Motive that the US Government ascribed, the Terrorists struck on September 11th because they hated America for its “Freedom and Values” or they were Muslims engaged in a centuries-old quest to establish a worldwide Islamic Caliphate that'd put the United States under Sharia Law.



• The Real Motive for the 9/11 Attacks was the deep anger and rage arising from the deadly, destructive, and humiliating US Wars for Oil in the Middle East after the end of the Cold War. RETALIATION Plain and Simple!


First Reason, if Wars of Aggression had never taken place in Central Asia, there never would've been the 9/11 Attacks, which in turn means there never would've been the Invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan.

Second Reason, the Invasions and Occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan continued the deadly, destructive, and humiliating Wars of Aggression that produced the 9/11 Attacks in the first place.





The United States was a Limited-Government Republic. A Governmental System in which the Government’s Powers were limited to the Powers enumerated in the Constitution. The Founders didn't want a Government of Omnipotent Powers.

After World War II, Limited Government was abandoned in favor of a National Security State. The Government’s Powers included the powers of Assassination, Torture, Coups, Secret Mass Surveillance, Alliances with Dictatorial Regimes, and more.

National Security States depend on enemies or an environment of Crises to keep the US Citizenry afraid. People are willing — even eager — to keep the National Security State in existence, to expand its power, influence, and Tax-Funded largess.

The US National Security State’s official Enemy was the Soviet Union and “Godless Communism.” That was what the Cold War was all about. Americans were made to believe that there was an international Communist Conspiracy to take over the world that was supposedly based in Russia. Throughout the Cold War, the Pentagon, the CIA, and the NSA—i.e., the 3 principal components of the National Security State — grew in Power, Influence, and Tax-funded largess.



When the Cold War suddenly and unexpectedly ended in 1989, the US needed a new official enemy to replace the Soviet Union and “Godless Communism.” That enemy became Terrorism.

In order to make sure that Terrorism was frightening as Communism, Terrorist Attacks were needed to scare people. That’s where Foreign Affairs came into play. By killing, impoverishing, and humiliating countless people in the Middle East after losing its official Cold War enemy, the US Government were able to generate Terrorist retaliation against the United States that was then used to rile up and incite fear within the American Public.

The 1993 Attack on the World Trade Center, which was, in principle, no different from the 9/11 attacks 8 years later. The earlier Attack didn’t generate the same anger and fear that the 9/11 Attacks generated because there wasn’t the massive destruction and loss of life that came with the 9/11 Attacks.

When one of the 1993 Terrorists, Ramzi Yousef, was brought to Justice for his role in the 1993 Attack on the WTC, he angrily told the Federal Judge at his sentencing hearing that the reason he had acted was to retaliate for the death and suffering that the US Government was inflicting in the Middle East, especially with Sanctions on Iraq, contributing to the deaths of thousands of Iraqi Children, not to mention Iraqi Citizenry into poverty. Ramzi never cited hated for America’s “Freedom and Values” or any desire to establish a worldwide Islamic Caliphate.

Then there were the Terrorist Attacks on the USS Cole and the US Embassies in East Africa. Osama Bin Laden's Declaration of War against the United States, he cited the US Troops in Saudi Arabia as part of his Real Motivation.

Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright famously suggested in an interview that killing Half a Million Iraqi Children with Sanctions to remove Saddam Hussein was “Worth It.” It was an admission that the lives of innocents mean nothing to the Washington Oligarchs, they paint their murderous interventions as Humanitarian Liberation.

A Foreign Policy of Non-Interventionism

Imagine if the post-Cold War interference hadn't occurred, There never would have been the pre-9/11 Terrorist Attacks. More important, there wouldn’t have been the 9/11 Attacks. We would never have had the “Global War on Terror,” the USA PATRIOT Act, the illegal Telecom Scandal, the Torture and Prison center at Gitmo, the expansion of the State-Sponsored Assassination Program, the intrusive Pat-down Searches at Airports, the Mass Secret Surveillance, and all the other things that have come as a result of the 9/11 Attacks. We'd never have had the Invasions and Occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan.

Many interventionists argue that the only problem with the Afghanistan bungling is that the US mismanaged the Occupation. They claim that it was right for the US Government to invade Afghanistan in the first place to retaliate for the 9/11 Attacks, that it just should’t have engaged in “Nation Building.”

They totally ignore the Real Motive that went into the Attacks and advocate a Foreign Police entailing “Smart” or “Prudent” interference which will continue to incite Anti-American Terrorism, which will produce more Anti-Terrorist Retaliation.

It's easier to Fool someone than to convince them they've been fooled. It's been rightly observed that; The daring Liars and Criminals are the ones that the American Public admires, yet they hate those who try to be tell them the Truth. After all, Truth is Treason in an Empire of Lies😁

I completely agree with what enlightened Americans are doing to get Justice for the horrors of September 11th 2001. I don't and never bought the argument about reciprocity against the United States or the US Citizenry with respect to the JASTA 9/11 Bill passed in 2016....

There should never have been Sovereign Immunity for ANY Country. If we're abiding by something called the US Constitution and International Law, We shouldn't need Sovereign Immunity or have any use for Sovereign Immunity. If it even did bring about retribution from other countries to the United States for the Crimes against Humanity, Crimes Against the Peace, Torture, War Crimes the United States Government has facilitated and enabled, then SO BE IT. What Sovereign Immunity does the United States deserve when the United States started that Vietnam-style War in Iraq, invaded the Graveyard of Empires known as Afghanistan, the catastrophe in Syria, then brought about the havoc and chaos in Libya. Wars for Oil, Wars of Aggression, and Wars of Attrition to force so called American Democracy on these Sovereign Countries (who didn't ask) to steal and plunder their Natural Resources?! Really?!

Other Sovereign Countries have every right in the world to take retribution against the United States for the trails of blood we've left behind.

We as the American Public, Taxpayers, and Consumers could've stopped all of the Military Boondoggles and demanded the US Government follow our Constitution and International Law so the 9/11 Families and the American Voters wouldn’t be where we find ourselves today. The American Public, Taxpayers, and Consumers knew exactly what the consequences were for these Illegal, Immoral, Criminal, Unconstitutional Wars for Oil and Resource Wars, yet few were willing to condemned this nonsense and ignored their conscience. American Voters blindly went along to get along. Others were promised things that they were never going to get for the path of least resistance. The Corporate Supremacy knowingly entangled the US Citizenry in these atrocities. It was desperately justified in the name of American Democracy, War Profiteering, and Controlling Natural Resources. We shouldn't have had our asses in those Sovereign countries in the first place; Iraq, Iran, Syria, Afghanistan, Libya, or ANYWHERE ELSE especially when we were warned and compelled against it. No one wanted to question anything nor asked any hard questions of the Oligarchy who wanted to pursue this nonsense to begin with.

The United States Government goes around the World Community doing dumb stuff in other Sovereign Countries, then we're shocked and appalled that that Others want to retaliate against us! Ya Think?!

The 9/11 Families wouldn't be where they are today had it not been for the Stupidity Squared of the Global War on Terrorism, Bombing Campaigns with Sanctions on Iraq, our Military Base on the holy land of Medina and Mecca, our slavishly blind support for Israel. The 9/11 Families and Survivors have every right to somehow to be made whole, and completely hold the Saudis (Royalty or Government) accountable, our inept US Government, Government Officials accountable for their gross negligence and utter incompetence to protect our Country, especially with our Billion Dollar Air Defense System that failed 4 times that day. The United States should've minded its own damn business in the first place starting in 1953 and forward, we'd never would've have had anything to be concerned or fearful about to begin with. The Crimes of the US Government, those Chickens are coming home to roost and will not go unpunished especially now with the Global South and the BRICS Countries getting their affairs in order. We're in a Multi Polar World, the Petrodollar Recycling System is done with, and the United States is no longer the Global Hegemon with the World's Reserve Currency!

Richard Clarke was completely right when he testified in front of the so called 9/11 Commission, the US Government failed miserably...

Well, the US certainly didn't appreciate or remember the assistance NATO gave them.
@SpudMuffin sure. Of course. Whatever! you are confued, unsure if the USA and its NATO might be aggressive. You stay on that fence.

@Roundandroundwego it's not me who is confused! Back on mute.
@SpudMuffin nobody will ever try to talk to Americans again, without expecting to be cheated and lied to in return. Keep talking. Whatever! Always whatever.
Are you sure it was an attack? Or inside job

The majority of the 911 killers were Saudis.

Rather than holding Saudi Arabia accountable, the lie of WMDs was perpetuated by the GWB administration, and the US invaded Iraq.
@JSul3 and bombed Kabul in Afghanistan that very day!

The motivation was Islam.. to fight jihad till the only religion in the world is islam and all people on earth submit to islam.. 911 happens because there are devout true muslims willing to carry out what the quran directs them to do..
We see Americans will commit endless atrocities for a not very believable false flag. And still do!!!
