        Trump is mentioned in the Epstein Files, more times than Jesus is mentioned in the Bible.

        No, it turns out that Trump was a bigger trafficker than even Epstein. He is the star.

      It doesn’t have the same ring, you know? And 911 being the emergency number here in the US, it was a real double whammy for us way back then.

    Hot take incoming.

    Turns out, Bin Laden was right, we should have not become so deeply invested in the middle east like we have and should have left it. Militarily and essentially colonialism of territory for oil.

      Not only was he right, but Bin Laden won, even if it killed him. The attack on 9/11 pulled out all the stops on ignorance, xenophobia, evangelicals in politics, the surveillance State, right-wing nationalism, and so much more. We wasted trillions of dollars on wars.

      The attack was a slow burn that took 20 years to collapse an “empire.”

        Yeah, if the objective was to bait the USA into wars that would consume it then he definitely won.

      The oil is just a nice bonus. What really drives the US wars are the weapons and ammunition sales

        Ding ding ding! People say the US wastes money on defense; it doesn’t. The cost is the point. The MIC is just a fat fuckin straw for sucking up money into publicly traded companies, I.e. the stock market.

        What better way to fight your enemies than selling them all armaments and watch them go at each other’s throat.

          That was the Iraq-Iran War. We sold weapons to both sides, and then said: “Hey! You gonna let that guy say that about you?” and just sat back.

    I never forget that the US gov created Al Qaeda by indiscriminately blowing up people in the Middle-East, and some of the murdered were friends & family of the three founders of the group. Cause and effect. If my friends and family get bombed for existing I’d also become a vengeful terrorist who spends a decade growing more powerful by connecting with other victims of state murder. I just like to think I’d be able to retaliate on the ones responsible and there to be no innocent casualties.

      … The US created Al Qaeda by giving them weapons to fight the Russians for them, then abandoning them when they won at massive personal cost… They literally armed and funded Osama Bin Laden through Pakistan… That part isn’t even a conspiracy theory.

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allegations_of_CIA_assistance_to_Osama_bin_Laden

      The only “alleged” part is that the CIA didn’t DIRECTLY fund bin Laden… Only through Pakistan’s ISI (CIA equivalent)…

      Like I get the indirect creating your enemies through causing suffering and destruction in other nations. Like that’s valid for ISIS for example. But Al Qaida literally wouldn’t have existed without American money.

    I remember the realization that the terrorists won. Our political leaders gave us fear and security theater. We started two wars of waste that make more enemies than we killed. We handed out most reactionary politicians and institutions the Patriot Act and other licenses to abuse and subvert democracy. I tell conspiracy theorists that the government didn’t do 9/11, they just exploited the hell out of it.
