Was the U.S. invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq planned long before the tragedies of September 11, 2001? Why did many WTC survivors mention bombs? Why did normal security measures consistently fail that day? Why has no one in government been fired or even reprimanded for failure to anticipate and prevent the attacks? For that matter, who was truly behind the strikes? Who and where is Osama bin Laden? What connects the bin Laden and Bush families? If the purpose of the perpetrators of 9/11 was to end traditional American freedoms, they may well have succeeded. Laws rushed through a Congress that never had a chance to read them while under a declared state of emergency have curtailed our freedoms.
