On September 11, 2001, a rare exception to the total shutdown of U.S. civilian airspace was made to save the life of a snake handler in Florida who had been bitten by a deadly inland taipan.

      The bin Laden’s were pretty well off from the construction business, even sponsored the Williams F1 team in the 80’s

      Osama had been pretty much disowned from the family for decades at that point.

      They wouldn’t have had a clue. (Unless of course you’re insinuating that all Arabs are a hive mind, in which case. Yikes)

      The Bush administration allowed the attacks to happen by indifference and incompetence and then used the American people’s fear to get what they wanted.

        Which turned out to be what bin Laden wanted

          Correct. That single terrorist act has succeeded in ways Americans refuse to acknowledge. We allow the memorial of the event to create division, this last one being particularly divisive.

          It’s all self inflicted at this point but I could see future historians crediting Bin Laden for seeding the fall of the empire.
