“I’ve seen it, the mask of humanity fall from capital—it has to take it off to kill everyone—everything you love; all the hope and tenderness in the world. It has to take it off, just for one second. To do the deed. And then you see it. As it strangles and beats your friends to death… the sweetest most courageous people in the world. You see the fear and power in its eyes. Then you know that the bourgeois are not human.”

    Yeah but I do think Bin Laden genuinely believed in what he was doing (based on his life and writing). My interpretation is more than the American government, or at least many of the important figures within it, knew what was coming and let it happen because of how beneficial it would be. I also wouldn’t say it is implausible that these people covertly funded or encouraged it through proxies. Regardless, the outcome is the same.
