But the Le Figaro report claims that bin Laden was treated in Dubai before 9/11. That would be shocking; bin Laden was supposed to be a wanted man for his attacks in Africa and the USS Cole. Le Figaro might have been lied to by their source. The source evidently wanted us to distrust our own government; if the source were hostile to the US, that would be a good piece of misinformation to use against us. (People over there don't like us, you know. Of course, the way we have behaved, is that any surprise?)

Not that I trust Bushco, I certainly don't. But I don't find MIHOP/LIHOP to be a parsimonious explanation for 9/11. But I do believe in the theory of "Exploited It On Purpose," meaning that 9/11 surprised them but they quickly made use of it to sell their pre-existing plans to do Iraq.
