911Truth "evidence" is not convincing to the reality based or the scientific community. They act as a cult or a religion with devoted followers who do not question their faith. On the other hand the non CD explanations are logical, consistent with the observations/evidence and are supported by rational people.
It's OK to question the conventional explanations... but an alternate needs to be supported by the observations and evidence.
The outcome was that the US began military operations in the ME, believing that terrorists were coming from the region and intent on doing mischief in the West. And several miscreants were captured attempting just that in the 90s. OBL made it clear that the US was satan and a legitimate target for terrorist style attacks. No way could his group prevail on a "traditional" battlefield. Their approach was more or less PR and making the public fearful and suffer blaming the western policies for this.
Of course the West's only interest in the ME was petroleum and gas to fuel their economies... and deny the revenues from their "enemies".
Sure there exists corruption in the West, within government and the private sector. Petro resources were seen as a strategic need in the West... and they were. They would have to be purchased or appropriated... Shady deals have been made concerning petro resources for perhaps a hundred years or so. Cutting off the petro supply was/is a means to hobbling the West. Why would the US be allies with a repressive regime such as Saudi Arabia? One reason only... they are an oil exporting country. This is the truth. I don't think it's denied either. Of course it sounds (and is) exploitative and no different from the resource "robbing" that has gone on for ages by the West as they "pillaged" the rest of the world.
I don't doubt that at least some of the motivation of the terrorists was to try to end the West's petro extraction and "entitlement" to foreign resources.
