September 11 attacks: Difference between revisions

The [110] suggests lazy plagiarism may be the article. Also, as bad it the attacks were, I can't think of any way they relate to suicide (unless we count suicidal thoughts, but those didn't happen during this) or war (I mean, this event was literally a few hours, and yes it had influences from previous attacks but those were brief hours too. Maybe I'm just being stupid, but still).

No end of conspiracy theories have been spawned by the attacks, the most common being that the United States government itself carried it out as a false flag operation and pinned it on Islamic terrorists to justify invading the Middle East for its oil.
