With Prior Knowledge of September 11, The Bush Regime Had Its Own Reichstag Fire to Help Usher in Draconian Legislation Like The Patriot Act.

The September 11 attacks on New York City, the Pentagon, and the subsequent crash of the hijacked flight in PA shocked and horrified the world. 

For many Americans the attacks, and the resulting loss of life and destruction, resonated at the very core of their identity as Americans who live in a bubble of safety and security that most of the rest of the world can only dream about. 

As the entire world stopped to watch the destruction unfold people were too dazed to even begin to think about who was responsible for such horror. 

In the days and weeks after the attack the blaming of al-Qaeda seemed to put to rest the question of who was able to wreak such devastation on a country like the United States; but quietly some people were beginning to wonder, did the government have prior knowledge of September 11? 

The question seems too horrible to even ponder, doesn’t it? 

How could any government possibly allow such loss of life and destruction to happen if they could have stopped it? 

Most governments probably would have immediately put plans in place to stop the attacks if they had prior knowledge of September 11 style attacks that were planned on their country, but the U.S. didn’t have just any government in place at that point, it had the Bush Administration. 

Back then people didn’t know the depths of the deception and manipulation that the Bush Administration was capable of using to further its own agenda, but people were still asking did the government have prior knowledge of September 11? 

Is that why Bush was not in Washington that day? 

Is that why the terrorists who flew the planes into the World Trade Center were allowed to enroll in flight school even though they were on a terrorist watch list and the U.S. security forces knew they were in the U.S.? 

Is that why the report titled “Bin Laden Determined to Attack Within the U.S.” was ignored by Bush? 

And many wondered if that was why, on the day of the attacks, President Bush didn’t look surprised when he was told that the U.S. was under attack. 

Many people surmised from evidence that was available, and also from Bush’s reaction to the events, that the government did have prior knowledge of September 11 and let it happen. 

Maybe they thought the planes were just going to be hijacked; maybe they didn’t know what was really going to happen. 

But maybe they did.

Bush’s Reichstag Fire

Anytime the question of whether or not the government knew in advance that there were attacks planned for September 11 the obvious question of what the government would have to gain from allowing such an atrocity comes up. 

But politically Bush had a lot to gain from allowing a terrorist attack to go forward.

At that point he was already angling for a way to start a war with Iraq. 

A revenge war to avenge Saddam Hussein’s attempted assassination of his father was on Bush’s agenda from the time he first arrived in the White House.
