Should that excuse our elected officials of sitting on their hands before it happened? Being dumbfounded while it's happening? And covering up

I am a retired vet. I have worked for the military as a contractor on different bases in the past several years. One thing I have learned from this
is: The United States government is one of the most incompetent, inefficiently run businesses in the entire country. To expect them to be otherwise
is merely wishful thinking.

Does coincidence really get these liars off the hook with people?

No, I was only pointing out that the “coincidences” before 9/11 are not the only ones that have occurred.

Why can't people get that?
Condiliar Rice lied to us straight face on record. Period.
How about the plethora more of lies in the 9/11 commision/ommision report? To cover up for incompetence? Maybe. But IMO that's NO excuse.

We all know that truth seldom comes from the beltway bandits. As far as I’m concerned, there’s not a decent one in the whole lot.
I knew that.

I just wanted to add, I am not saying they (the government) were involved, just that there was a coverup of some sort.

Whether the government was involved before or only after is still in constant debate. But make no mistake, they were involved.
