Fair enough but can you point me to places where I can find rebutalls of this? Edit: particularly for the wtc 7 stuff, I just don’t understand how a building that wasn’t hit by a plan collapses.

But those are not mutually exclusive are they? I don’t think anyone claims that Bush literally did all of it, at least I wouldn’t. Yes, the planning was most likely not carried out by the US government itself but by Al-Qaeda who really hated the US a lot but to say that there was no foreknowledge of what was going to happen and no coverup in the aftermath doesn’t match with a lot of the stuff that has come out since. Why did the CIA not inform the FBI that potentially dangerous terrorists had entered the country? How were the suspects identified that quickly? How tf do the hijackers passports get found on the sidewalk the next day? Why are there obvious flaws in the NIST report as to how WTC 7 collapsed? Highrises don’t collapse at free Fall due to fire. How were they so quick to pass the Patriot act, a 134 page legal document that was passed a month and 15 days after the attack? Considering the gates 9/11 opened for the Bush Administration it’s hard to argue that they would not be tempted to at least let it happen if they were informed of it beforehand.

Just blaming it on foreign policy in fairly abstract terms doesn’t go far enough imo. Bush and the people around him definetely knew of the attacks and covered up their knowledge. Theres also a good case to be made that they may have faciliated the attacks to some extent. The collapes of wtc 7 is really sketchy from what I’ve seen but I’m open to a good explanation as to how the official explanation of that holds. It was a very clean collapse for something that was not a planned demolition although I admittedly have no clue as to how such a thing would be carried out.
