"In response to the attacks on the #Pentagon and #WorldTradeCenter 22 years ago, the #US showed that there is no tragedy that government can't make worse.
Neoconservatives led a bipartisan push to invade #Afghanistan and #Iraq. Congress passed the Patriot Act. The #FBI stepped up operations targeting Muslims, but also environmental activists. Politicians militarized the police.
The occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan cost nearly a million lives, driving more people to join the jihadists. The rise of the Islamic State a decade later showed that the invasions had only strengthened the forces that neoconservatives claimed to be attacking. The Taliban recapturing Afghanistan in 2021 confirmed the pointlessness of the invasions.
By any metric, the stability of the US government has eroded since 2001. Every time the authorities escalate the conflicts they expose us to and the control they hope to wield over us, they are taking a risk."

@KBAntifa Vergessen wir aber auch nicht, dass dies zum Grund für den #WarOnTerror erklärt wurde, den zweiten #Irak- und dem #Afghanistan-Krieg auslöste, obwohl der Angriff durch Saudis ausgeführt und vorbereitet wurde. Das seither jeder Muslim unter Islamismus-Verdacht steht. Das der War on Terror 100x mehr Tote gefordert hat, uns die Bilder aus #AbuGhraib und das #CollateralMurder-Video beschert hat. #KeinVergessen auch für diese Opfer

So it's 9/11, and I've failed to put anything together for the day, so I will leave you with the seeds of a #conspiracy #theory...
In the 1980s, #DickCheney and #CondoleezzaRice were part of a group pushing for #military intervention in the #MiddleEast, mainly #Iraq and #Afghanistan.
In the 1990s, #OsamaBinLaden bombed the #WorldTradeCenter. #BillClinton attempted to have him captured or killed, but was stopped by overwhelming #political pressure, culminating with #impeachment.
