Bush didn't orchestrate the attacks. Someone much more powerful than Bush did? Much more powerful than Bush you say. Of course.
Just look at his face when he heard about the planes crashing into the building. It's like a monkey who just found out his favorite tree got knocked down. He's not smart enough to plan the attack, nor is he smart enough to cover it up. Somebody, somewhere, wanted something.
I get your point, really I do. For a while I tried to convince myself that it wasn't the government either, since it does seem really crazy to say it was. There's a lot of things more powerful than the government, though, which brings me back to Big Business. We haven't had another attack since then, even though we bombed the hell outta two countries, we've been kept in a state of constant fear with the terror alert system, our basic freedoms are being taken away by something labeled a "Patriot" Act, I mean the list just goes on and on. Sure, they could have seen 9/11 as an opportunity to take away our basic freedoms, but it's just more plausible to me that it was planned.
