In any event, because I have been pooh-poohed twice now, I'm going to defend my position (mostly because I'm a little frustrated that you both haven chosen to ignore things in my original post like "of the myriad reasons" and "it would be far more damaging to the US").

If terrorists organizations hate the US and the US government, logically speaking they would want to damage the US and the US government as much as possible. A terrorist attack like 9/11 caused the US to target certain terrorists, namely the group that took responsibility for the attack, in an attack on Afghanistan. Therefore, while it certainly damaged the psyche, lives, and buildings of the US, the attack also resulted in a base of power taken away from the terrorists. Overall, I would say the terrorists accomplished little towards their goals.

If on the other hand, the attack was planned and carried out and/or supported by the US government, from a terrorists' perspective, it would be far more damaging to the psyche of the average US citizen to know that no terrorist organization has taken credit (when, as snorri indicated, terrorists take credit for anything and everything). If no terrorist organization took credit, the average American might have more reason to believe that the US government was behind the attacks, rather than terrorists. This would make many Americans distrust the government, at the least, which would be much more damaging than for us to think a terrorist planned and executed the attacks. This scenario would do far more for the terrorists' goals than a simple attack on the US. It has been shown that bin Laden is a smart dude, so if he hadn't planned the attacks, and he figured out that it would have been far more damaging had Americans believed the US government planned the attacks, he would not have taken credit for the attacks.

I challenge anyone to come up with one valid explanation for why this building collapsed, other than by controlled demolition.

Starting immediately by perma banning certain people, leaving others who did the exact same thing alone.

The white rider of the west has been released... that was Bush... the red rider is about to take peace from the earth... He is Kim Jong Il. He will lose his nukes before the end of the year. It will be dire... It has all been fortold... it has all been planned.

You forgot the most sinister and dire horseman of them all - the dreaded low rider from south of the border. He will take our jobs first, and then our women, with his lascivious Latin version of hot monkey love. After that, no one will care and we will surrender to the Canadians.

4 reasons why you need to revamp your intelligence network:

1) No one knows where i live, as my mail is sent to my house that burned down in November (the mailbox is still there).

2) I'm not working right now, which should be obvious by the amount of time i spend here.

3) I ride a bike (that's motorcycle for you ignorant Canucks) and haven't owned a car since 1979.

4) There's 2 warrants out on me right now, so i never take the same route.

The Mayans predicted nothing. They just made a calendar and every time it ran out they just made a new one.

Hell, they made dates for stuff like ceremonies that would happen well after 2012.

The 2012 end-of-the-world stuff is just symptom #24759 of the apocalyptic version of Christianity that's been with this country since the Puritans decided it would be a good place to bunker down, as it was totally about to happen, the evidence was everywhere.
