When Al-Qaeda themselves claimed responsibility, even with overwhelming evidence aside? Why were so many people still reluctant, I was researching about this stuff and was shocked to see people who I respect a lot believe in this

      What do you mean by they had plenty of warning? Do you consider the government, FBI, and CIA to be one entity?

        Normally the agencies coordinate.

        Cheney changed that when Bush was elected, and had everything go thru him. It was his decision what another agency and even the president was told.

        The pieces were all there, but Cheney was literally the only person who saw all the pieces before it happened.

        And he never said anything.

        Maybe he was incompetent, maybe he was evil enough to let it happen.

        But lots of people call Dick Cheney evil, no one calls him incompetent
