9/11 Interpretations [View all]

9/11: Four interpretations distilled from lecture by David Ray Griffin delivered at the University of Wisconsin at Madison on April 18, 2005, and first broadcast by C-Span2 (Book TV) on April 30.

1. 9/11 was a surprise attack on the US government and its people by Islamic terrorists.
2. 9/11 was a surprise attack that was exploited by the Bush administration to extend the American empire.
3. 9/11 was not a surprise attack as the Bush administration knew the attacks were coming and intentionally allowed it to happen.
4. 9/11 was not merely foreknown by the Bush administration; they were the principal architects that orchestrated it.
