"According to a CBS News report published a few months after the attack: ‘A secret office operated by the CIA was destroyed in the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center, seriously disrupting intelligence operations… The station was a base of operations to spy on and recruit foreign diplomats stationed at the United Nations, while debriefing selected American business executives and others willing to talk to the CIA after returning from overseas.'"

Probably destroying Intel imo

You don't have to collapse a building to "destroy intel" lmao. Think this one's just the US of A getting absolutely owned.

Thinking that it's a big government conspiracy is lib as fuck, a refusal to accept that the last 70ish years of foreign policy means that EVERYONE ELSE IN THE WORLD FUCKING HATES AMERICA.

Anyone who was surprised by 9/11 wasn't paying attention.

Biggest conspiracy I'll believe is those in power knew it was coming, told others to help it along as necessary, and let it rip

I just don't care. 9-11 happened. The real conspiracy starts after.

Agreed. You don't gain much by knowing anything about what happened the day of 9/11 either way. Best case is knowing just how hard our enemies are willing to go to get what they want.

If you could convince someone to come to the left by saying that the govt doesn't care about them and use a 9/11 conspiracy as an example then you could have done it with anything else in a much shorter amount of time with any topic more relevant to their lives.

Collapsing it would seem to me to make securing the Intel harder, since it is mixed in with the rubble now.
