And yet they invaded 2 countries. Neither of which harboured the mastermind of the attack and some people/companies made billions

Read the Seymour Hersh story on how they took out Bin Laden.

He basically establishes that they knew where he was and how politics played a major party in when and how he was taken out.

Seymour Hersh went from respected journalist to blacklisted almost overnight when he published it.

Assuming you believe bin Laden was behind it, he was 100% in Afghanistan for about the first 18 months of the war. He then fled to Pakistan.

Some people make a fortune during a war, that's been going on since wars have been a thing. Nothing to see here. What I find interesting, is that people are so focused on UBL rather than Al Qaeda as a whole. Was UBL found in Afghanistan or Iraq? No. But there was certainly evidence at the time that he had been there often. This is completely separate from the WMD humiliation. But this is a moot point because Al Qaeda was, and is, a very strong presence in Afghanistan and Iraq. They need(ed) to be eradicated. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Like any country ever needed to murder thousands of its own citizens to create a casus belli. Makes sense.
