It is like 9/11 but in the sense of the entire law book going out the door by using the excuse of “combating terrorism” and ending up where we are now.
Back when the Patriot act was laudly applauded and institutions like ICE were deployed to violate laws people knew this was going to be the end station.
the only issue I take with this analogy is the comparison of an awful person that will kill millions to some terrorists.

Totally. Never let a crisis go to waste.
And if there’s no crisis, invent one.
On 9/11 they had all the documents and bills ready to go. Sure was very convenient timing.
They knew OBL was planning something, all they had to do was sit back and let it happen.
