Osama bin Laden adamantly denied involvement in the 9/11 attacks in an interview by Ummat, a Pakistani daily, published in Karachi on September 28, 2001 He expressed his views on the loss of life, saying, "Islam strictly forbids causing harm to innocent women, children, and other people ."

Osama went on to say, "They needed an enemy. So, they first started propaganda against Usamah and Taleban and then this incident happened." Speculating who was to blame, he advised looking, "within the US system," or for those responsible, or for persons who seeking conflict between Islam and Christianity. Finally, he suggested involvement by American intelligence agencies.

Terror, Obama said, "is the most dreaded weapon in modern age and the Western media is mercilessly using it against its own people ."

According to the CIA 15 of the 19 hijackers had Saudi citizenship, 2 United Arab Emirates, 1, Egyptian and 1 Lebanese.

No plan to invade Saudi Arabia was suggested by Bush.

Afghanistan was not involved in 9/11, yet we invaded them. Iraq had no weapons of mass destruction. Saddam Hussein expressed his willingness to leave Iraq, if paid. But we invaded. Millions died.

These wars were policy built on lies. Find those who benefited and you have all the answers.
