Article by Erik Larson, work in progress; suggestions and links welcome

This article is an overview of some of the ways in which 9/11 has been used; manipulating public fears and understanding, increasing military budgets and private contracts, reducing oversight and accountability, launching imperialist wars, and implementing repressive police state measures- as well as victories for the People and the Constitution.

Wars: After 9/11 Bush, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Perle and numerous other Bush Administration stepped up efforts for military-backed regime change in AfghanistanIraq and currently Iran. The Anthrax outbreakshappened within a month or two of 9/11, were falsely blamed on Muslims by the senders and heightened the fears, confusion and anger of the public and Congress. In an attempt to link the Anthrax attacks to Iraq, government scientists lied to ABC News, and they and the other corporate media hyped public fears and misconceptions. The Senate Intelligence Committee documented that the Bush Administrations claims about Iraq’s WMD and the threat posed were unsupported by the facts, and an independent investigation by the Center for Public Integrity found that the Bush Administration told 935 lies in their PR campaign to sell war with Iraq to the American People and the World, including many subtly and overtly linking Saddam Hussein and Iraq to 9/11 and Al Qaeda; there was no link. Also see BushLies.net. Estimates published by The Lancet and Opinion Research Business show that over a million Iraqis have been killed as a result of the 2003 US invasion and over 3 million displaced by the war. The Bush Administration and CIA are supporting the US designated terror Group MEK in an effort to destabilize and provoke Iran (see this and this, too) while lying about their attempts at diplomacy. 9/11 has been used to justify wars for control of geopolitically strategic resources such as pipeline routes as in Afghanistan and control of oil as with Iraq. However, the primary benefit is not the profit from these things, it’s the power on the “grand chessboard” of the world.
