9/11 Ten Years Later–
What Have We Learned?
Many prominent scholars, scientists, physicists, engineers, architects, and ordinary people throughout the United States and around the world have asked the question — what have we learned since 9/11? Many believe there are still important unanswered questions that need answering. What really happened and why? (See AE911truth.org) Come and join the discussion and bring your questions and answers to share with others. Your voice is important.
Whether you believe: 1. the official U.S. government version that 9/11 was the work of Al Qaeda with no prior knowledge by U.S. intelligence; 2. there was prior knowledge; 3. the attacks were “an inside job”; or some other version of 9/11 events — some things have become clear since the attacks. 9/11 has had, and still has, devastating consequences, for the U.S. and for the world, especially in the expanding wars it has spawned, killing innocents, involving torture, targeted assassinations, the use of drones, Depleted Uranium (DU) radiation weapons, environmental destruction, increased surveillance and loss of civil liberties, undermining economies and wasting money on wars and militarism that could have been used to help people. In short, U.S. actions since 9/11 have weakened U.S. national security by increasing the level of international hatred toward the U.S. and its imperial policies of global domination.
