the way i see it is, what if 9/11 was only designed to get a predictable reaxtion form the american government. one little attack results america going to war, spending billions of dollors to add to an already bloated deficite, reduces americas world standing in the eyes of civilised countrys, spreads the military too thin, causes conflict in the country. all helping to lead to americas econmoic breakdown and at a time when chinas having a "industrial revolution" and starting too provide us with cheap alternatives which america will struggle to make up in the coming years.
Think about it, the americas predictable gun-ho actions has cost america finantially. economically, and politically far more than the loss of two towers ever could. just think how much americas spent to occupy desert.
it's sheer genious, this attack has made america destruct itself from within, far more than a thousand attacks ever could. 9/11 wasn't the blow to america....it was americas reaction to it which would cause the damage.
i should really post this to cnn....this is good stuff!
