common-sense systemic bias
Common sense shows that the U.S would have major geo-politcal motives
for orchecstrating the 9/11 attacks. You will agree that the
occuaption of the oil-rich country of Iraq,the extension of U.S
military presence in Afghanistan [which provides America with a
certain amount of significance in the Indian Subcontinent (a highly
important area in terms of political significance)] will be enough
motive for the U.S to fake the "terrorist attacks" on 9/11.
Not really. If the US wanted a solid motive for invading Iraq it would
be fairly trivial to plant some WMD for the inspectors to find. Or
allow them to shoot down one of the planes patrolling the no fly zone.
Fair trivial and produces a much stronger case than the unrelated 9/11
If the US wanted a military presence in the Indian sub continent they
could of, Oh to chose a random country, paid Tajikistan to put a base
there. Could have been sold as supporting about the only democracy
amongst all those former bits of the USSR. Or they could have gone to
Nepal to sort out the Maoist lot.
